ABOUT
Hellraiser. Like his cousins, Leo and his younger brothers, Logan and Luke, became known for stirring up trouble in Center Hill. As a child, Leo was as intent on leaving his mark as the rest of them. He was confident, barreling through doors and breaking rules like a hobby. To say he was aggressive is an understatement. Growing up with Andrew as a father wasn’t easy. Like his brothers Jeffrey and Steven, Andrew had firm ideas. Particularly when he came to the pack and how children should be raised. Their mother, Heather, never questioned it either. Either they fell in line, or they’d be made to. It was as simple as that. Fighting and training was a given, always a ruthless lesson in how to survive.
When their pack was attacked 12 years ago, Leo was reluctant to go to New York because it felt like they wouldn't be their own pack anymore. And it's partially true but with a family so big, they don't need to be a pack for people to know they've got each other's back. Soon, he even saw the city for what it was: a big fucking opportunity. He took advantage of it, rising in rank in The Syndicate to become an enforcer.
Around two years ago, Leo made the mistake of a one night stand with Hazel Jones. And it wouldn't have been a mistake if she hadn't gotten pregnant...and if he hadn't been with someone else. It's become a bit of a mess, which is the Cross way of things. It's also why he figured getting married to his girlfriend would smooth things over, even though marriage as a concept never meant much to the Cross. Things are on the rocks now in his relationship, but Leo's focus is his daughter. He's determined to be everything his father wasn't.
