Alpha Loren

Chapter 76 Where Were We?

November 27th

Later in the day, Leo took me to his parent's house so that he could go to the base to straighten things out with Blair, who still stricken with grief was struggling to understand why what happened happened and why he knew nothing about it. Blair was loyal to his Alpha but Leo still had a lot of explaining and admitting his mistakes to do. 

"I need to speak to you in Dad's office Mateo," Leo said to his eldest brother, the only one in the house when we arrived.

"Sure," Mateo said nodding before smiling at me.

I sat on the sofa and tried my hardest not to listen to their conversation. You'd think a house of werewolves would invest in soundproof doors for their office, wouldn't you?

"A girl was killed by a rogue this morning," Leo said sincerely.

"Who?"

"Amber Valintinetti," Leo answered.

"Your Beta's sister? Why?" Mateo questioned.

Leo sighed, "There is a lot of shit going on with the rogues out there. Until the war, we hadn't had much trouble with them for months. But now we're at our weakest, they've come back in full force. More than full force."

"And what's that got to do with Amber?" Mateo asked.

"There was a plot to murder my Luna," Leo said, "A thought out, well-organised plot. It could easily have worked if I didn't find out that Amber had recently found her mate, a rogue. He dragged her into it and threatened her into luring Ella away from me. She failed and he killed her."

There was silence for a few moments, "So...you knew?"

"I fucked up," Leo admitted, "And now I need to go to the base to clear up the shit. Watch Ella, if anything happens to her, I will probably kill you and when I get back, you should go and check on Allison. I know you two are...close."

I then heard his footsteps heading for the office door. The office door opened and Leo left the house after gently kissing me on the forehead.

"Something tells me he wasn't joking when he said he'd kill me," Mateo said, in the lightest tone possible considering the conversation he'd just had.

"I have the same feeling I replied."

"Why did you just say 'I replied'?" Mateo asked.

"I don't know."

It wasn't until eight hours later when Leo finally picked me up. We ate dinner with the rest of Leo's brothers, Bella, Lisa, Antonio and Rosa before going home. I was exhausted and desperately craved my bed. 

"Can you stop pacing?" I questioned as I sat on the mattress with my favourite fluffy socks.

He didn't seem to acknowledge me and continued to pace.

"Leo!" 

"What?" he asked in a frustrated tone.

"Sit down for God's sake. It's late," I replied.

He then kicked off his shoes, took off his shirt and jeans and lay on the bed, resting his head on my stomach as I ran my fingers through his thick hair. He sighed before kissing my stomach and breathing in my scent.

"I can't believe she is dead," I said.

"It sounds harsh but she didn't have much to look forward to with that man for a mate."

"Is Blair alright?" I asked.

"As good as you can be when your sister has just died," he replied. "I explained everything but he needs a few days to think it over."

"He's not alone, is he? I'd hate to imagine him on his own right now."

"He's with his parents," Leo reassured. 

He then shuffled further up the bed to my face where he kissed me gently on the lips.

"It's been a hellish day," he said.

"I betrayed your trust," I said.

"Because you didn't tell me you planned to go to the mall with Amber too?" he asked.

I nodded.

"I knew all along," he said wrapping his arm around me, "I just wanted to see what you'd do."

"You were testing me?" I asked.

He shrugged, "I guess. Why did you do it?"

I swallowed, "I can't just blindly follow what you say. If you had told me your reasons, I never would have gone against it."

"Why not?" he asked.

I took a deep breath. I should probably just tell him what's been in the back of my mind all week.
