Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 31 – Crepes with Corrado
AZURA.
The door shut behind Leo, and I let out the breath I was holding. It was weird. I didn‘t know if I preferred him in the suit that he was wearing last night, his leather jacket, or in those sweatpants… 4 Fck, this guy was far sexier than he should even be allowed to be. I missed my own workouts, but being pregnant and with everything going on I had fallen behind. I know that training during pregnancy is fine, as long as you don‘t put any frontal impact on the stomach. “Let‘s eat Azura, Daddy makes the best food.” Corrado declared, drawing me out of my thoughts. Leo made these… I didn‘t even know what to think as I sat down, my heart still racing from the way he had brushed my arm on purpose. What does he want from me? I looked at the plate in front of me, crepes folded into triangles drizzled with Nutella, a dusting of icing sugar, and strawberries on top. So aesthetically pleasing. This plate looked almost as good as Leo did. Almost. “Oh, it looks very yummy!” I exclaimed, smiling at the gorgeous little devil sitting there, smiling sweetly. 1 “It is, and Daddy even made it look nicer today. I think for you.” He added thoughtfully, making my heart skip another beat. 4 “Hmm, he was probably worried that I could make better crepes than he can.” I teased. “Oh no, Daddy knows Azura can‘t c**k.” Thanks kid. “And you like to make that clear huh.” I teased as I took my first bite. He grinned and nodded. “Oh, these are good.” I had to admit it because they were perfect. Dmn, I could get used to this…
No, I can‘t because he‘s not mine. I wouldn‘t lie, the way he had spoken to me last night had remained in my mind. He wasn‘t a bad person, well aside from being a d**k. “You‘re very lucky Azura, Daddy only cooks for me, but he cooked for you too.” Corrado said, watching me eat. 2 I poured us both a glass of milk, each placing his next to him. “I sure am lucky, so what else can your Daddy do?” I asked, resting my chin on my knuckles. Aside from being deadly sxy, being incredible in bed and stop it Azura. “He is good at everything! He is the best Daddy in the world! He always takes care of everyone; he is my hero!” His eyes sparkled with light and hope. 2 It was obvious that Leo wasn‘t lacking when it came to being a father… I wonder where Corrado‘s mama was… Did Leo let him see her? Or was he keeping him away from her? Or did something happen to her? I pushed the thoughts away placing a hand on my stomach slowly. “Oh, I‘m sure he is an incredible Daddy.” I replied, giving him a small smile. The fact that he even left him with me all alone, from the point he didn‘t even allow me to be with him around Winona… was a big change. “Yes, and I think he‘s very sad now.” He added, sighing. “Sad?” I asked curiously. He nodded as I picked up my glass. “He broke up with Nikki, so he‘s all alone now.” My heart thundered as I froze. He broke up with Nikki? I didn‘t want to be one of those people who asked kids for answers, but… “Oh, how do you know?” I asked, feeling a tad guilty. He looked at me as if I was asking a silly question. “I know everything. She and Jackie were packing her stuff, she was crying, and saying Daddy broke up with her.” He finished off his pancakes and licked his lips. I grabbed a tissue and wiped his face. “Oh. Are you ok?“. I didn‘t know what to say… How do I react to that? Were they not in a committed relationship? What had caused him to break up with her? Was it because of me? Who was I kidding? Leo wouldn‘t choose me over her. But this did mean Leo was now single… 2 Don‘t go there, Azura. “Yes, I‘m ok, Nikki didn‘t really spend time with me, so it‘s ok! I‘m just sad for Daddy, so sad.” Corrado sighed, watching me pointedly. “Will you be Daddy‘s girlfriend please?” 13 I blinked as I stared at him, taking a few seconds to comprehend what he had just said. “I don‘t think that‘s for us to decide. Besides your Daddy and me… we…” I shook my head, unable to explain myself, and he simply looked disappointed. “Ooh, let‘s have a race! Who can eat faster! I was able to distract him quickly. After we devoured our crepes, I washed up before putting the TV on for him, telling him I was going to quickly get ready. He nodded, and I got dressed superfast in a white vest top with leather pants, not sure if he was safe to be in a room alone. PE VIILUTO I don‘t trust kids… If they are alone for even a minute, they can wreak havoc. Trust me, I‘ve been there. Surprisingly, when I came back, he was sitting where I had left him and everything was in order After that, we played tag in the apartment before having a pillow fight. I loved kids, and Corrado was a pretty well–behaved kid, but I knew if taught well he’d be up to lots of mischief! We had a lot of fun. He was just adorable. By the time we were done, the apartment looked like it had been hit by a tornado, but it was worth it. Corrado‘s laughter had been contagious, and it took my mind off everything I was feeling A knock on the door made us finally get up from the pile of cushions that we had been lying on as he tried to tickle me. I went to the door, pulling it open to reveal none other than Leo, one who was glistening with sweat, pouring water into his mouth from a water bottle. 1 For a moment time seemed to stand still as I simply stared at his gorgeous brown locks that were falling in front of his forehead. From his broad shoulders, his lats and traps were as defined as ever. His shirt clung to his narrow waist and deliciously defined abs. Then there was the front of those sxy sweatpants that
He cleared his throat, and I felt my cheeks heat up when he snapped his fingers in front of my face. 1
“I‘m here for Corrado, if you aren‘t busy enjoying the view, how about you call him?” He mocked arrogantly. 1
“Na, I was just wondering how you weren‘t even blessed with one good feature. I‘ll call him.” I lied, hoping I was convincing enough. 31 The reminder that he had broken up with Nikki returned to my mind and I forced it away. He stepped closer raising an eyebrow when he placed a finger under my chin. My heart thundered and I couldn‘t ignore the tingles that rushed through me.
“What the fck is wrong with you?” “Nothing.” I managed to say, realising I had spaced again. He narrowed his eyes, searching my eyes for an answer he wouldn‘t get. “Corrado?” He called, looking away from me. “Corrado isn‘t here.” Corrado‘s voice came, and I could help but smile. This kid was dmn cute.
“Well, I was planning to take Corrado out for dinner tonight and a movie tonight. It seems like he doesn‘t want–”
His eyes were shining with excitement. “You mean you‘ll spend the full evening with me?!” He asked with barely contained anticipation.
“Yeah I am, if of course, you want to?” Leo raised an eyebrow, and Corrado nodded. “Oh yes please Daddy, I always like spending time with you!” He grabbed Leo‘s hand and smiled at me. “Thank you, Azura. I had lots of fun today.” I smiled at him, crouching down and planting a kiss on his forehead. “I had lots of fun too.” I replied, poking his little dimple, only to be rewarded with a bigger smile.
I suddenly felt overwhelmed with emotions. This was my pup‘s sibling… I looked up at Leo only to realise I was pretty much level with his dck and smoothly stood up trying not to think of anything explicit. “The crepes were pretty nice.” I found myself saying. “They were pretty basic.” Came Leo‘s cold reply before he led Corrado away. Once they were gone, I closed the door, looking around my apartment. Well, I guess I should clean up… A few hours later, Winona had come with lunch, and I wasn‘t going to complain considering everything she brought was delicious. I was falling asleep on the sofa when I heard a knock at the door. Who was it now? I walked to the door, fixing the strap of my bra as I opened the door, only to be hit by none other than Leo‘s intoxicating scent. Our eyes met and he brushed past me not even waiting for an invitation. “Sure, why not just come in without an invitation.” I remarked, shutting the door, Leo turned towards me, totally unbothered by my remark. He was dressed semi–formal, in black jeans, with a smart white shirt that had its sleeves pushed up and a few buttons showing the necklaces that hung around his neck. “I already did.” He shot back arrogantly. I frowned about to respond when he held out a phone. I raised my eyebrow as I took it slowly. “You can call your friends and family, that btard will not be able to contact you. To make sure he doesn‘t even trace this back to you, the only numbers that can contact you are those on the phone already.” He said as I stared down at the device. “The password is the same as your last phone.” “I‘ll be changing it.” I stated. Like hell, I would allow him to know my password… although I had a feeling a password wasn‘t enough to keep him out of it. “Go ahead.” Our eyes met, and that intense silence fell over us. Fck, there was no Corrado here to distract
me either.
“So I–”
What did I want to say??
“I‘ve forgotten.”
He raised an eyebrow as he closed the gap between us, and I slowly stepped back, trying not to focus on how good he looked. “You really are crazy.” “Yeah, I am, and am proud to be.” I shot back, giving him a withering glare. “Do you always have your claws raised to attack?” He asked mockingly.
have to. So back off, ever heard of personal space?” I frowned as
