Chapter 81
81. Confessions
LEO.
“What’s wrong?” Dad asked, looking suddenly tense.
What the fuck was up with him? Now wasn’t the time to ask him though, I needed to get this
shit over with.
Azura ced her hand on my thigh, and our eyes met for a moment before I wrapped my arm around
her neck pulling her close and kissing her forehead. “I’ll start with my side business, as you already
fucking know, I created some pretty lethal bullets.”
Dad nodded slowly, drinking his coffee.
This wasn’t going to be easy, and I wasn’t going to fucking sugarcoat it or try to justify shit.
“Well as you know, I have several businesses, one of which is the Heimtückische W?lfe…” I said,
waiting for him to take that in. 1
“Heimtückische W?lfe… that’s…” Realisation dawned on his face as he stared at me as if he had just
been hit with a reality check. Guess he fucking had. “So.. Schurke Wolf… I often thought the name was
ironic, how the fuck did I never see that…”
“I’m not going to try to justify anything, but the Cartel was the majority of my ie. I’m not even going
to say I’m sorry for it. I regret certain decisions regarding having involved the bastard Emmet, but
otherwise if I was told to do it all over… I wouldn’t change the Cartel.” I said coldly, but I was watching
him intently despite my emotionless attitude.
“That’s…” Dad sat back, running his hand through his messy hair as he exhaled sharply. He set his cup
down, joining his hands in front of him, and ced them to his lips trying toprehend what I had just
told him.
Was he stressed out? I couldn’t fucking make out what he was thinking, but from the way he was
constantly either clenching and unclenching his hands, to the tapping of his foot on the floor, or running
his hand through his hair, I could tell he was trying to digest my revtion. I poured myself another cup
of coffee since it looked like this was going to fucking take all day. “Emmet is the one who took my
form and created his own fucking batch of lethal bullets. Plus, there was a shipment of drugs that I
had brought into the country. It was meant to be the final one, one that has fucking made me the richest
man in the country, only to find out they’ve been tampered with. I’m certain it’s Emmet’s doing too. I
need you to put him under Alpha Command, so I can ask him a few questions.” I continued.
There was no point in filtering this shit, we didn’t have time to fucking waste.
Dad looked at me as if seeing me for the first time. “Of course, I’ll ask Emmet… but tell me Leo …
why?” He asked quietly.
“You know why,” I replied quietly. “I didn’t trust anyone… in the end, we needed to fight for survival.
Ourselves. I’m letting the past go and so I won’t bring that shit up again. I told you the truth and I intend
to let the pack know as well, before Emmet’s trial.”
“You want to tell the pack that you-”
“That I’m a Cartel Don? Yeah, I don’t need to tell them that I’m Schurke Wolf, but I’m fine
with them knowing of my activities because Emmet will be tried publicly and fairly and he will mention it
whether I do or not.”
Azura’s heart was racing as she watched Dad, she had been so sure he’d be ok with it… I hadn’t but I
still needed to do this regardless.
“Yet despite knowing he’s going to be a dick, Leo is still doing it in a fair way, when Emmet doesn’t
deserve it.” She said, looking between Dad and me.
I almost smirked, my Sexy Little Psycho was defending me.
“I understand that… I just… I know your values and mindset Leo so I know even in these things you
are doing things with a conscience, but one or two traitors can cause so much damage. The drugs that
have been on the human newstely, I’m assuming those are the ones you mean.” Dad said, frowning
deeply.
“Yeah, pretty much, I’m trying to get things under control.”
He nodded slowly and sighed. “It’s dangerous… we don’t ever want the humans to learn of us Leo, if
that ever happens… the world that we know will change forever. Fear is a dangerous weapon Leo, and
even the smallest of beings can be lethal… We can’t let their eyes turn upon us.” 1
“I know… and I n to stop with the drug trade, I intended to take a step back from it after this. But I
need to fix this shit first. I will always remain as Schurke Wolf… because in this country… there are
many who will always need a protector.” I said quietly. 1
I wasn’t going to change my decision regardless of whether he approved or not. “If it doesn’t sit right
with you, I won’t hold it against you if you wish to keep the Alpha title.”
He let out a chuckle, shaking his head. “We’ve all fucked up, none of us are perfect Leo and I get that. I
appreciate you telling me but withholding the Alpha title from you isn’t going to make me happy. You
deserve this title… but there’s something I want you to promise me.”
I raised an eyebrow waiting, I fucking felt like a kid again with the way he was speaking. “And what
exactly is that?”
“Follow your conscience, don’t ever lose sight of what is truly wrong and right.”
“Not a fucking issue,” I replied taking out a cigarette and lighting it. Yeah, I know I was in a grey area…
but this world wasn’t fucking ck and white either. “I know that, and I will never do shit that I can never
redeem myself from.”
Azura smirked, nodding slightly. “You know… I want to say something too…”
We both looked at her as she leaned forward, resting her elbows on the worktop. She became serious,
and a look of guilt crossed her face. “I’m the reason behind Judah… and I’ve not told anyone… I’m the
one who messed up and got involved with someone like him… I’m the reason Shane and Jackie are
gone… I’m the reason…and I want to make sure everyone knows that.” Her voice was soft, vulnerable
even.
I shook my head. “That ain’t fucking necessary, I’ve got it covered, and I told you, it’s not your fucking
fault.”
“No, you’re here owning up to your stuff, and when Mama and Dade… I’m telling them…
everything.”
I was about to speak but she ced her hand on my arm. “You don’t need to-”
She shook her head. “I know, because I have you, who is always keeping an eye out for me… but I
need toe clean.” She said firmly, leaning over and kissing my jaw. “I’m a big girl, baby, I can handle
a lot more than you think.” She winked at me, a small smirk on her face as her hand slid up my thigh,
massaging my dick. Sending pleasure through me.
Fuck…
Oh, we both fucking knew she could handle a lot…
I throbbed, hardening beneath her touch–fuck, I hated how quickly I got turned on. After a moment, she
slowly moved back, and I turned my attention back to Dad who was watching us with an amused smirk
on his face. 1

Now to tell Dad about my health…
“There’s one more thing.”
He raised his eyebrow, nodding. “Since it’s a morning of confessions, go for it.”
“Yeah? So do you have something to say?” I smirked, only for him to tense slightly, and I frowned.
So he was hiding something…
“Nothing at all. Now tell me what you need to say, and right after that, we’ll go get the answers from
Emmet.” He said, smoothly changing the fucking subject.
Well, here goes nothing…
Ten minutester, I had finally finished telling him everything, from when I first started coughing up
blood to trying to heal myself. How Jackie tried to help… and how nothing worked, and I was ready to
die. I didn’t dy in telling him what Dante had said since the man lookedpletely devastated.
“And not once did you think to tell me?” He asked quietly, walking around the counter.
I frowned slightly. “I didn’t want anyone’s sympathy…” He ced his hands on my shoulder.
“I’m your father, Leo, my son was dying, and I didn’t even know… and it’s obvious that I’m thest one
to know.” The hurt in his voice was evident, and I felt guilty.
“I’m sorry… I didn’t want you to worry.” I said quietly.
“Worry? And if you died! Then what? What would have happened then? Damn, you’re such a fucking
stubborn idiot! You are all I have, and if something happened, then there was nothing I could have
done.” He gripped my shoulders tightly, frustration, sadness, and worry clear in his eyes. “Damn Rossi.”
“I get it, I know…now… look I won’t die… There’s a solution, Dad and it’ll work. So chill the fuck out…”
“It will, I’m going to make sure of it.” Azura added firmly as Dad hugged me tightly.
Damn, he was treating me like a fucking kid.
“I’m not fucking dying,” I growled.
“Technically you still are….” Azura siniled, clearly enjoying this.
Dad didn’t reply – simply holding me tight, and for a second it reminded me of all those years
ago when he’d been there for me… the fleeting moments when he wasn’t under Endora’s control… or
after her death, when he’dfort me after yet another nightmare…
I guess we will always be our parent’s children…
‘I’m sorry.‘ I said through the link. ‘Forgive me.‘
‘You don’t need to ask for forgiveness… you’re going to be alright; I have just gotten my son back, and
I’m not losing you again.” He said quietly. The determination in his eyes was clear.” No matter what.”
I moved back and reached for Azura, pulling her up and into my arms.
I did it… one by one, I faced the hurdles that were in my path and overcame them… with her by my
fucking side. a
We headed out together, and Azura was grinning away as she shouldered her bag. Something told me
she had found a staple gun… What exactly a little staple would do to a werewolf was beyond me, but
this has got to be interesting. 5
“So, you can heal when the moon is at its fullest?” Dad asked her.
She nodded, “Yeah, whilst I assumed it could be the moon at its fullest, which gives us three days.
Dante said under the full moon, so it has to be at night when the moon is at its peak, the one night that
the moon’s aura is most prominent. Leo’s theory then gives us just a few hours on the second day, so
that moment when it’s at its peak.” She exined, a pout on her gorgeous lips.
“So that would be the night we set for the Alpha and Luna ceremony.” Dad mused.
“Yup.” She replied, brushing her silky locks back. My gaze dipped to her stomach, I could hear the
heartbeat of our pup often when it was silent. Her bump was getting more prominent too… I still can’t
fucking believe I’m going to be a dad all over again… This time it’ll be different because I won’t be
alone… I’d have my beautiful queen by my side.
For a moment, I simply appreciated her breasts then smoothly looked away, before I ended up pinning
her against the nearest wall and kissing her senseless. I pulled her close, making her gasp, one that I
cut off with a sizzling kiss. I ran my tongue along her lips and slipped it into her mouth, slowly ying
with hers. The moment I felt myself throb against her thigh, I moved back.
‘Can’t wait to take that cock in my mouth tonight… I think you deserve a reward for everything you have
done today.‘ She murmured through the bond, sucking hard on my neck, and I knew she had left a
mark when she moved back with a satisfied smirk.
‘Can’t fucking wait.‘ I responded, shamelessly staring at her breasts, before I gave her an arrogant
smirk.
“Young love.” Dad smirked as we entered headquarters and made our way down to the cells.
Our men lowered their heads as we passed, and I unlocked the door. Dad was frowning now, and when
we entered the cell, we saw Emmet sitting on the bed, his eyes closed, but he was
awake.
He looked paler, clearly, theck of food and the silver in the cell made it worse. I nced over at
Azura, I didn’t want her in here for long, not wanting the silver to affect her or the baby.
“Hello, Emmet.” Dad said quietly, disappointment clear in his voice.
Emmet opened his eyes and gave him a small smile. “Hello Alpha… I had a feeling it was going to
come to this sooner orter.”
Dad nodded. “You had your entire life before you, Emmet; it’s disappointing to see you choose a path
of darkness.”
“As did your son.”
“There’s a difference,” Dad said quietly.
Emmet nodded. “Ah shit… Yeah, he’s an Elite. Sorry, I’m not bowing down and kissing the floor
beneath your feet, but I’m really not feeling great.”
I frowned, yeah, I could see that… guess the side effects of losing Jackie was hitting him too…
“No need to bow down, we are equal, Emmet, only defined by our actions.” Dad looked at me, and I
knew this was hard for him, after all, he had always treated Emmet like a son.
My eyes were cold when I looked at the man before me. I no longer considered him a friend or brother.
“Command him to answer everything I ask.” I said coldly, stepping forward. ” Starting with, where did
you create those bullets? I want the location of your base.”
Dad’s aura spread, seeping into every corner of the room. His eyes zed as he looked Emmet
directly in the eyes. “Answer him!” He thundered, making even Azura flinch at the menacing power in
his voice.
I often forgot how powerful he was… That was a voice he didn’t use much anymore… 2
Emmet’s eyes filled with panic before his gaze darted to the door.
“The…” He was trying to resist, his heart was thundering violently. He leapt off the bed, his eyes on the
open cell door, but I caught him, mming him up against the wall.
“Answer!” I growled.
“Th–the-” His desperation and irritation were clear on his face as he stared at the open door, his heart
pounding. “The- The CAVERNS!”
His words rang in the cell, and I dropped him to the floor, my own heart thundering.
He didn’t need to tell me what caverns… How the hell did he even stomach going back to where it all
started… and this meant I would have to go too… To the ce, I was not only born but the ce that
fucking birthed all my nightmares. Back to the hell where Endora reigned
over us all…
