“I changed my mind; I was bored as fuck waiting around.” He shrugged, but just as he was about to light the cigarette, Azura slammed the ball at the back of his head, knocking the cigarette from between his lips.
He growled menacingly, turning as fast as lightning. Kataleya gasped in horror, Liam muttered a swear, and Skyla cackled. As for the devil herself, she simply stared at the glaring man, despite her heart pounding.
“What the fuck was that?” Leo hissed. I was by his side in seconds. Although I knew he wouldn’t hurt her, I wasn’t going to risk it.
“What the- was what?” She glared back.
Okay, she was obviously really pissed off. The young alpha wolf’s eyes flashed, his powerful aura emanating off him.
“The actual fuck? You psychotic-” Leo started.
“Stupid person!”
“Leo did that to Azura first, Daddy!” Skyla added defensively as Liam scooped his sister up into his arms protectively.
“Put me down!” Azura snapped.
“Come on, Zuzu, calm down,” Liam tried to soothe her.
“No! He hit me first!” She shouted.
“But weren’t you saying ‘again, again’?” Liam tried to calm the struggling girl who was kicking wildly in his arms.
“I don’t care! Give me the ball!” She shouted.
Leo stood up, glaring at the screaming girl before I placed my hand on his shoulder firmly.
“She’s a kid. Are you seriously going to start a fucking fight? Why the fuck were you using her as a target?” I asked, pulling him back. He shrugged me off roughly, his eyes blazing a steely blue.
“She’s a fucking maniac,” he growled.
“You’re the maniac!” Azura shouted, glaring at him murderously. “Get out of my sight, or I will poke your eyes out and cook them!”
“Azura!” Liam tried to stop her.
“Oh, yeah?” Leo growled.
“Yeah!” Azura taunted. Her bright blue eyes dazzled with anger as she glared at him.
“Oh, for fuck’s sake, can you two cut the fuck out? Leo, Liam, let’s go!” I growled, bending down next to my own girls. “Sky, why are you enjoying this?” She shrugged, pondering over something thoughtfully.
“I don’t know, it was funny. Daddy, can you pay me for every time Leo swears, too?” She asked hopefully. What the fuck was this girl so deprived of that she needed so much money?
“No,” I answered, not missing Kataleya’s small smile. I pulled them both into my arms and planted a kiss on both of their heads.They may be weirdos, but they are my weirdos. “I’m going to head out. We’re going to make everything okay again. I want you two to be good girls, alright?”
“Okay, Daddy,” Kataleya whispered, fear filling her eyes. I looked into her eyes.
“I promise you, he won’t be able to hurt anyone ever again.” She nodded before giving me a tight, one-armed hug. That teddy she always carried around was held tightly in her other arm.
“Alright, let’s get going,” I said, standing up and looking over at the other three.
Liam was still holding onto Azura tightly. She was looking at Leo with distaste, something he was finding amusing.
“I hope you get hurt,” she said to Leo.
“Yeah, and I hope you walk off a fucking cliff,” he shot back, smoking his cigarette.
“Leo,” I threatened. “Let’s go.”
