Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Enzo:

“What is going on here?” Alaria asked, entering the kitchen to find me making breakfast.

The two maids who were here, stood back, helping me out with cleaning and setting the table. Alaria crossed her arms over her chest and I watched as she looked at Ashton, waiting to hear an explanation to what she saw. Truth be told, I didn’t have one, at least, not one that was going to convince her with an answer that she wanted to hear,

“I am making breakfast today.” I said, and she scoffed, raising an amused eyebrow.

“The last time you entered the kitchen, you nearly burnt it to the ground, Enzo.” Alaria sald, and my eyes widened. Ashton laughed, and the two maids had to look away to stop themselves from laughing. “What are you trying to do?”

“I already made an egg for us. We are going to have breakfast together as a family.” I said, and she sucked in a harsh breath as the smile that was on her face was almost instantly wiped out.

“I have work to go and get ready for,” she said, wanting to take a step back. I looked at the maids and my eyes hardened as I nodded at them to take care of things while I walked toward her. I wrapped an hand around her arm, pulling her out of the

room, knowing that this wasn’t something that I wanted Ashton to hear.

“Enzo, the two of us know what is going on, and you don’t need to play the game of family with me. I doubt that you…”

“I told you that my apology was not one that was temporary…”

“A cup of coffee and breakfast aren’t going to prove whether or not it is.” She said, stopping me. “The gesture is kind, but it is not one that I want to hold onto. These moments of excitement aren’t ones that I am going to fall for.”

*“You can at least come and allow Ashton to see the two of us together, Alaria.” I said, and she looked away from me for a © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

moment. She looked at the door for a moment before she shook her head.

“You called him a bastard, Enzo. While I was pregnant with him while married to you, you deemed him a bastard. I understand that you might regret it, but that doesn’t mean that I am going to forget it. Maybe things are different now, and I have allowed you to be in his life, but that neither changes the reality of things, nor…”

“You know the reason behind me calling him that…”

“Then you shouldn’t have brought us

to stay in the pack in the first place. At least, it would have made a lot more sense to me, my brain, and to my son to know that we were not in a place where hellfire was broken loose whenever it can.” Alaria said, stopping me. “Up until today, not once did I come and throw my anger out on you. I put everyone in place, I pushed everyone away, but I always respected and allowed you to do what you wanted. Today, I am fed up with doing so.”

“No one has asked you…”

”

“And that is the main reason why I am saying this right now.” She said, stopping me. “You are going to stay away from me, and I am going to find myself and Ashton a place to stay. I am not going to stop

you from seeing your son, it is not my

place to do so, but I don’t find it appropriate to stay in your house when I am clearly nothing to you. And don’t tell me that I am. I am tired of allowing everyone to step over me, and that includes you.”

A

“I didn’t step over you, Alarla,”

“It doesn’t feel like it.” She sald, making me frown. “Anyhow, I have things to take care of. You can have breakfast with Ashton before he gets ready for school. It is still too early for him to be heading off.”

Alaria didn’t wait for me to respond as she turned to walk Inside the room. I frowned as I turned to walk inside the kitchen only for the door to be knocked, it was Leonardo.

I opened it and he walked Inside, smirking when he saw Ashton walking out of the kitchen.

“Beta Leo!” Ashton said, making me chuckle as he ran toward Leonardo who wrapped his arms around him, lifting him in

his arms.

“Hello to you too, little wolf. How are you doing?” Leo asked, kissing his cheek. “How’s your mom? You aren’t tiring her, are you?”

“I am fine, Leonardo.” Alaria sald, walking toward the living room to pick up her phone from the coffee table. “Ashton, baby, come to the room when you’re done with breakfast as we are going to need to get

you ready for school.”

“But it’s weekend, mama.” Ashton said, pouting his lips. Alaria’s eyes widened in surprise and she looked at me, her eyes hardening as I smirked.

“You couldn’t have told me that it was a weekend when I was talking, could you?” She asked, and I shrugged.

“I wanted to see when you would figure out that schools are from Monday till Friday. Plus, I was curious about what you had to take care of on a Saturday morning,” I said, and she shook her head as she let out a low growl of warning before she

walked back to the room.

Leonardo shook his head as he kissed Ashton before putting him down on the floor.

“I take it that the two of you are not on the best terms?” He asked, and I shook my head.

“We have been through better times,” I said, crossing my arms over my chest as I watched Ashton head to the kitchen.

“What’s going on?”

“Jacob was at the hospital earlier.” He said, making my eyes harden. “And both he and Katherine were seen making what

looked like a deal…”
