Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Alaria:

“Mama, is daddy going to come to say goodnight to me?” Ashton asked, and I smiled, laying by his side.

I wrapped my arm around him and laid him on my arm as I did when we were alone. I knew to keep him comfortable in this situation. I didn’t know where things were going to go from here, but I knew one thing, I

didn’t like it one bit.

“Not tonight, baby. Your father has a lot to deal with and he went out. He won’t be back till very much later, but he still will come to your room like he used to before.” I said, and he smiled. Enzo has developed a habit of entering the room to kiss Ashton good night, even if he was actually asleep, he would come to the room, kiss his forehead and cover him with a blanket. I found it sweet of him, and by time, I knew that it was something that even I got used to seeing. There were times when Ashton would wake up, and I knew how happy he was to see

his dad.

“Are we going to stay here now, mama?” Ashton asked, and I nodded.

“It seems so.” I said, running my finger through his hair. “Do you like it here?”

“Yes. You and daddy seem to be happier.” He said, making me smile. “I like it when you are happy.”

I kissed his temple, and he smiled at me as I purred.

“We will be staying where you are most comfortable, and I know that your father wants you to be around him. don’t want you to be without him too,” I said, and he nodded.

The scent of my brother, Ezio, filled my nostrils, and I frowned at the fact that he would be here despite our argument. I didn’t expect it to be as soon as it was, but I knew that if he came here, it wasn’t a very good sign. At least, it was what I knew about him.

“How about you start getting ready to go to sleep? You know, we have a big day tomorrow, and I know that you are going to want to be well rested.” I said, gently massaging his scalp. It was a habit that he liked and found comforting to him.

“What do we have tomorrow?” He asked, and I smiled.

“A big day for us all. You know, with things taking the path that they are, I know that every day is a big day. T said, and he nodded. I got up from the bed, and covered him with the blanket, before kissing his forehead. “I want you to always know that mama loves you so much, and that I am always going to be by your side.”

“I love you too, mama.” He said, and I smiled. He raised himself slowly before kissing my cheek, and I watched as he laid back down, covering himself with the blanket before taking a step back as I turned to walk out of the room where his maid was waiting by the door.

“Don’t let anyone inside the room unless it is me.” I said, and she nodded. I nodded at two of the gammas, knowing that they would be standing by the door to make sure that nothing happened. I knew that it might be a little too much from my part, but with everything taking the path that it was, I made

sure that every child in the pack got the same treatment. Luna or not, I knew how to act when needed, and I knew that this wasn’t something that Enzo would mind anyway.

“Alaria.” Ezio said, calling me as he saw me walking down the stairs. Viktor, stood one step behind me, knowing the tension that happened between my brother and I. Needless to say, at this point, I didn’t even want to see his face.

“Unless someone is dying, I don’t want to hear it, Ezio.” I said, and he frowned.

“You wouldn’t want to see your brother unless someone is dead?” He asked, and I raised an eyebrow.

“I doubt that you would expect me to want to see you, approach you, or even look at you. Then again, you tend to have no shame at times and I would expect the worse from you when it is needed.” I said, and he let out a low growl.

“You can growl all you want. It will not change the facts that we all know.” I said, and he looked away from me.

“I take it that you are acting as Luna and hiding behind the wall of the men that your Alpha has behind you?” He asked, looking at Viktor. “It is a shame that each beta seems to act as if your own brother is danger to you.”

“A man who threw me into the lion’s den when he could have protected me is no brother to me. And you need to understand that I need no one to protect me. I can, very much, protect myself. You seem to fail to realize it, and that is something that you have seen firsthand considering the fact that you knew that I was raising my son on

my own.” I said, and he let out a low, clearly annoyed, growl.

“You are going to regret the decision of making your own brother an enemy for the man who divorced you, threw you out, and chose to have his mistress in your place as wife.” He said, and I took a deep breath. That was low,

even for him, and I knew that he saw my annoyance in my eyes.

“And I think that it is time for you to leave. Especially considering the fact that I know and can tell that you don’t have anything that you are going to tell me.” I said, and he frowned.

“You are kicking me out?” He asked, and I nodded. NôvelDrama.Org © content.

“The pack Alpha is not here, and you can visit to speak to him when he is. Until then, the door is right behind you and the men are going to be more than happy to escort you out of the pack.” I said, looking at Viktor. He nodded and pulled his phone out of his pocket to send someone, I believe that it was the gammas or deltas, a message.

“I can show myself out,” he said, turning to leave as the men approached him. Viktor nodded at them to follow him before the two of us released a heavy breath as he walked out.

“What’s going on?” He asked, and I shook my head. “The man seemed to be a lot more aggressive considering that he was the one who came.”

“Ezio likes to be superior, and he knows that he didn’t get his way.” I said, looking at Enzo’s beta. “We are going to need to make sure that all the secret gates are guarded. A heavy feeling in me tells me

that we are in for a very long night…”
