Alpha Loren

Chapter 37 The Bastard Named Max

November 2nd

Maria's face turned a ghostly shade of white and she brought the phone down with one shaky hand and stared down at Leo's phone.

"Sherbet Lemon," She whispered back to herself.

"Maria what does it mean?" Rosa said taking Maria's shaking hands.

"Leo, you need to go to Ayas immediately," Maria said. 

"What why?" Rosa asked. "What's wrong, my dear?"

"Sherbet Lemon. It's a code word for help," Maria said. "We used to use it when we were little, whilst playing games in the woods with the others."

At that point, Leo grabbed his car keys and turned to me.

"I'm sorry to leave you again," he said kissing my head. "I'll be back as soon as possible."

"It's fine," I replied kissing his cheek. 

"And you should have this," he added handing me something I hadn't even seen in a long time, "I'll call you."

My phone.

I gladly took it and smiled.

"Go. Do what you need to do to help Lia."

He nodded before swiftly leaving.

"Never a quiet moment, huh?" Mateo said.

He then looked over to Rosa to see her noticeably fretty and worrying.

"Try not to worry Mom," he said wrapping an arm around her. "Leo will take care of this. Just as he always does."

"You're right," she replied. "But just the thought of my little girl in trouble...it's painful."

"I'll make coffee," I announced. 

A few moments later Antonio came through the door with a confused expression.

"I just saw Leo leaving," he replied. "He said something's happened with Lia. He was in a rush and didn't explain, could anyone care to enlighten me?"

"He's gone to rescue her from Haden," Maria said. "She's in trouble."

Antonio's face dropped, "Fucking hell. I fucking knew this would happen. Why did I let that fucking bastard take her?"

He let out a low growl before marching out the door. Leo's car was still in the drive and we heard the car door open, presumably as Antonio got in.

The car was soon speeding away and I got back to the coffee.

The rest of Leo's brothers and sisters tried their best to comfort their Mom for hours.

I took the time to check my phone after weeks of not having it.  54 text notifications and 29 missed calls.

Half were from Connor and the rest were split between Abi, Charlotte, Paul and My Mom.

I replied to Abi and Charlotte and filled them in on everything. Connor, I decided not to tell about the baby...yet, same with my Mom. And Paul I just completely and utterly ignored.

I then noticed that a host of new numbers had been added to my contacts including Leo, Blair, Luca, Antonio, Rosa and Dr Amanda. Naturally, I had to text Luca about my baby news.

Watch out, bitch. I'm on my way.

 Five minutes later as promised, Luca was at the door to Rosa and Antonio's house.

The second I opened it I was greeted by a crushing hug.

"I'm so fucking happy," he said swinging me around.

"And I can't fucking breathe!" I cried.

He instantly loosened his grip and instead began kissing me all over.

"Ew," I said wiping the slobber off me.

"You ground genitals with the Alpha...and I'm over the moon!"

I almost choked.

"Luca!"

The things that come out of this boys mouth...

"I can't wait for you to push a screaming bundle of flesh out of your vagina either," he added hugging me again.

"I literally can't with you sometimes," I said with a laugh.

"Am I allowed in? I brought cookies," he replied.

"No, piss off," I said. "Joking. You'll have to ask Rosa though. This is not my house."

"So long as you stop talking about genitals and vaginas!" Rosa called back.

"Your wish is my command, Ma'am," he announced with a salute before practically dancing into the house.

We spent the evening sat with Rosa on the sofa. She told me lots of information about being pregnant and having kids, some stuff that really paled my face, as Luca listened with a weird amount of interest.

"So you shit when you give birth?" Luca asked. "Like normal shit or...runny shit?"

"Ew!" I exclaimed. "Luca!"
