Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Chapter 76

Enzo

I frowned when I looked at Katherine as she lay on the chair beside Alonso.

He was still in the hospital and was still asleep, something that angered me as I knew that I was forced to stay quiet, at least until he woke up and we went home.

"Enzo?" Katherine called, her eyes widening in surprise when she took sight of me. I looked at her and she walked toward me, wanting to wrap her arms around me as to pull me in for a hug. I had to stop myself from pulling away, reminding myself of the game that I was going to have to play. A game where she was going to have to believe that I didn't know anything.

I hugged her back and she sighed as she laid her head on my chest. "He is refusing to wake up."

I kept my arm wrapped around her, knowing not to push her away, knowing not to let her know that I knew of her stupid game. A game that she was trying to play

on me.

"He will wake up soon, Katherine. He is going to need to heal. You heard the doctors, he inhaled way too much carbon dioxide, he is going to need to heal from it before he's able to wake up." I said, and she sucked in a harsh breath. "Are you okay? Did anything?"

you eat

"I am fine, Leonardo'brought me something to eat. I barely managed a few bites. A mother cannot eat when her child is ill, and..." she stopped herself as she looked at Alonso. And I had to stop myself from scoffing as not to catch her attention. The woman was losing herself and her mind, and the idea of what she was doing was one that I found absurd. The game that she was playing made me question whether or not I ever knew her in the first place. "I don't know what to do, Enzo. Things are just tiring and I find myself thinking

of the worst."

"You don't have to think of the worst. What you need to do right now is try to think straight. While yes, I know that you are tired and scared, and I know that you have so much on your mind, but there are things that you need to focus on. They are more important for you right now. Alonso is in safe hands, but you have your pack and home to take care of too. They

are looking for their Luna..."

"They know that I am with my son. I doubt that they should expect me to come right after things have happened when they know that he is asleep and has been injured." She said, shaking her head at me. "They can't be that insensitive."

"It is not about being insensitive, it is about the fact that they know that you have your responsibility toward them. They are going to need to see it, and they are going to need you to be around them. They have also been affected, and if every mother is going to reject her pack because of one of her children being ill or injured..."

"My son was in the fire while none of their children were. I saw them, they all managed to get out with their parents. Neither one of the parents left the children behind in the fire." She said, and I nodded.

"Then do you want to explain to me why our son was left inside? If every mother and father took their children with them, I am curious about the reason behind why our son was inside the fire when he was?" I asked, shaking my head. "Why didn't you take him with

you?"

She stayed quiet for a moment and I watched as she looked down at her feet, avoiding my

eyes.

"You really are putting me in this situation right now? When you know that I am in pain and that I am angry, you are putting me in a situation where you are questioning why things happened the way that they did?" She asked, wanting to turn the topic in her favor. Her eyes met mine and I shook my head in question, waiting of her response. She didn't say a word for a moment before she scoffed. "To think that I would know you better than to think that you are going to put me in such a situation."

"I didn't put you in any situation. I asked a question and I expect an answer based on what YOU just told me." I said, looking her in the eye. "You said that every parent went to pick their child up. You left him where you did, and you left the house. How did it happen that he was in his room with the door locked? The firefighters had to break the door down to

get him out and his own mother, the one person who has his bedroom keys, was outside, safe while her son was inside a burning house."

"Are you accusing me of something, Enzo?" She asked, looking me in the eye. My eyes

were as cold as ice, and I knew that showing her any emotion would be exposing myself too much to her. That was something that I didn't want right now.

"I would rather not put myself to consider such a factor." I said, choosing my words carefully. "I would rather not think that my son's mother was aiming to have him burn alive inside the house while she fled for her own life."

"I didn't flee for my own life. I left, yes, it was a mistake on my part, l'admit that much. But I had to keep the pack safe and when everything broke out, I didn't think straight. It wasn't until I saw him looking at me through the window that I realized what was going on. I thought that he would be with one of his maids, I didn't think, not for a moment, that he would be inside the house." She said, looking down at her feet. "I am sorry, it was a mistake, and I regret the mistake..."

"Why was his room locked? He could have opened the door if it wasn't?" I asked, and she shook her head as tears fell from her eyes.

"It wasn't. The last thing that I knew was the fact that he was asleep. I didn't want him to go to school today and I told his maid to watch over him." She lied, making my stomach churn as my chest ached. "The woman ran away and I am guessing that with the commotion, she didn't..."

"Which of the maids?" I asked, stopping her.

"What?" She asked, trying to process my question.

"Which of the maids' was it?" I asked, repeating my question. "Which of the

maids let my son stay in a situation like this?"

"Enzo, the woman would have been frightened..."

"Then she is going to pay with her life for it," I said, stopping her. "If the woman was scared enough to run for her life, leaving the Alpha's son in the house by himself, then she was going F to pay for it. Now, I am going to ask one more time and if I do not get a response, I am going to be sure that ALL four maids who are in charge of Alonso pay the price with their lives. And the other three innocent ones would have their bloods on your hand." The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!

question another time."

She took a deep breath as she closed her eyes, her heart racing against her

chest as she gulped.
