Chapter 12 The Envelope

October 12th

I woke later that night. The earlier storm had passed leaving the moon beaming in through the undrawn curtains. All I could hear was the gentle breathing of the still sleeping Leo, who lay with his arm gently wrapped around my waist. His lips were slightly parted and the light of the moon lit up his face revealing his beautiful features. He looked pure and innocent, the complete contrast to earlier that night. I lay gazing at him for a few minutes, yearning for him to be this kind and gentle when he was awake. 

But only in the innocence of sleep, when his mind drifted unconsciously through dreams, could he be like this.

When he was awake, he destroyed lives. Thousands of them.

And he was stubborn to change. But like I told Rosa, when I see wrong, I fight it until its right. It was a challenge but I felt it was my duty. I was the only person that stood a chance of putting his evil to an end and that placed a heavy burden on my shoulders.

But for now, I'd let him sleep. The room was peaceful and I let myself lie awake just thinking for a while.

But the more I thought about it, the more I couldn't bear to look at him. 

I turned my head to the wall and floor instead, trying to ignore his hand which still rested on my waist. That was when I noticed a glint of gold from his jeans that were draped over the chair in the corner of the room

The key to the nightstand drawer. Where Logan's envelope was kept.

I took a deep breath and slipped out of his arms and crept over praying that there weren't any creaky floorboards. I reached the key without a sound but then my dumb ass dropped the it and it landed with a light chime on the floor.

Leo began to stir and I quickly grabbed the key and shoved it in my pocket.

"What are you doing?" I heard him grumble in a tired voice, slightly muffled by a pillow.

"ummm...well..." I stuttered,

He sat up slightly looked at me and rolled his eyes, "Actually I don't care. It's the middle of the night, go to sleep."

I nodded and lay back down next to him with key still in my pocket.

Dear Ella Jones,

It is to my deepest regret to inform you that, unlike my father, I take no pity upon rogues and will not have any living on my land. However, I am willing to allow you and your brother to stay under one condition- you become my wife and Luna. Connor will also join the pack. The marriage ceremony will take place on Wednesday

Best wishes,
