Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Enzo:

“I want to go inside to mama!” I heard Ashton snapping at Katherine the garden.

My wife kept her eyes on him, trying her best to control what she was feeling as she knew not to say something wrong to my son. She knew that ONE wrong word could be leading to consequences that she didn’t want to deal with right now, and I knew that she would be playing smart, especially after what just happened upstairs.

“You are going to be playing here, little wolf. Your mom is speaking to the Alpha and they have requested not to be disturbed. No one goes against the Alpha,” Katherine said, getting on her knees in front of him. “Come on, go and play with the ball like the other boys do.”

“I don’t want to play! I want to play with mama!” He said, crossing his small arms over his chest. I looked at the little boy for a second too long before getting down on my knee in front of him.

“Do you want to go inside to mom?” I asked, my voice softening as I caught his attention. He ran toward me, his small legs were fast despite his age, and I knew that it had a lot to do with his genes being an Alpha blood.

“Yes!” He said, and I nodded.

“Well, how about we play with the ball a little bit while mom rests? Then I can take you up to see her?” I asked, wanting to spend a little time with him. Time that I knew that Alaria wouldn’t want me spending.

“No, I want to go inside.” He said stubbornly. I looked at him for a second, taking a breath ast I caught Alaria’s scent behind me. She didn’t say a word, but her son, being bonded to her, sensed her coming

and his eyes lit up before he ran toward her. Alaria smiled and kneeled. down to lift him in her arms, kissing his cheeks as she hugged him.

Her words still played in my head and it took everything in me to stay calm in front of son as she put him down. Her hair was still wet from the shower, and though she kept her hair down, covering her neck, I could see the mark of my fingers around it, forming at bruise.

“Well, mama is here now, do you want to play with the ball?” She asked, and his eyes brightened.

“Are you going to play with me?” He asked, and she smiled.

“Can mama sit here and you play? Mama is a little tired,” she said, and he pouted his lips. He took his hand in hers, pulling her down, and Alaria smiled, getting down on her knees in front of him. He kissed her forehead, letting his lips linger there, and I frowned in confusion before he pulled away.

“Your forehead is not hot, mama.” He said, and Alaria laughed. She cupped his cheeks and kissed his forehead before pulling away to look at him. “Do you want to sleep?”

“Don’t worry about mama, baby. You go and play, I’ll be right here watching.” she said, and he nodded.

“Am I going to play alone?” He asked.

“I can play with you if you want?” I suggested. Alaria looked at me, her eyes hardening making it seem as if she were sitting in front of the demon himself. She didn’t say a word, but I could see Ashton hesitating before he shook his head.

“No, thank you.” He said, making me frown in confusion. “You’re too big. You are going to

win.

“You can try, I am sure that you’re a lot better than I am.” I said, suggesting. He shook his head in response before he walked toward Katherine who was holding the ball in her hands.

“Can you play with me, Miss?” He asked, making Katherine’s eyes widen. She looked at Alaria for a second, hesitating, and though I could tell that she wouldn’t have liked it, she nodded, silently letting her know that she didn’t mind.

“I don’t know how to play too well,” Katherine said, and Ashton nodded in assurance.

“I can teach you. Mama taught me, I can teach you. Mama will watch and help me.” He said, looking at his mother, confident that she wouldn’t break his word. Alaria smiled and nodded, taking both Katherine and I by surprise.

Katherine handed him the ball and he put it down on the floor while I watched. He went

and picked up two stones, small ones, and put them as if they were his goal posts, and he walked toward Katherine.

“All you have to do is kick the ball between the rocks.” He said, and she looked down at it. Even Alonso, her son, never invited her to play with him. The two of them never had that bond together, and I could tell, judging by how confident Ashton was, that he and his mother had it.

“Your money was wired to your account. More specifically, reversed to it. I didn’t even need your account numbers. All it took was a call to the accountant and he got it solved.” Alaria said from behind me, catching my attention. I turned to face her and shook my head in question.

“Why?”

“I don’t take pity money, but I was impressed to see that you were willing to spend five million for me to sign a paper. It was a slap on the face, but also a reminder to me that despite my loyalty to you, our marriage was nothing but a deal in your eyes.” She said, looking at Katherine. “But I have to admit, I expected to see you happier.”

“You know nothing about happiness, Alaria.” I said, turning to face my son and wife. Katherine, who scored, laughed and Ashton clapped for her.

“Indeed, you don’t.” She said, getting up from the floor as she nodded at Katherine and her son. “And I am guessing that this is the first time that your wife has laughed in years. This only proves that neither one of you knows what happiness is. And that is why I am glad to have found myself out of your sickening web.”

“Only to bury yourself deeper within it.” I said, looking down at her as she stood beside me.

“That is where you are wrong, Alpha Enzo.” She said, wrapping her arms around herself. “A Phoenix rises, stronger, more beautiful, and more resistant when burned. Don’t underestimate your opponent simply because you are bigger. I am not the wife that knew years ago…”
