Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Enzo:

I frowned when I opened my eyes to find myself in the hospital.

Alaria and Ashton were nowhere to be found, and the idea of something happening to them wasn’t one that I wanted to think of, and it wasn’t until I caught Leonardo’s scent that I was able to release a breath that I didn’t know that I was holding.

“They’re fine and in the pack.” He said, as if knowing that it was what was bothering me. “I had them sent there to ensure that both she and Ashton were safe. They didn’t want to leave, but having them stay here wasn’t going to be the best option when we knew that enemies were on the loose.”

“Katherine can approach them in the pack.” I said, and he shook his head.

“I was sure that neither she nor Alonso can approach the pack let alone enter.” He said, nodding in assurance. “A lot is going on, and riot after another is rising, and with the rogues growing stronger, we are going to need to be more careful.”

“The rogues are only growing stronger because…”

“Because they are allowed to since you and Alaria aren’t there. As I told her, I will tell you; the two of you forgot our duties when you married and chose to divorce…”

“I was the one who chose to let her go, Leonardo. She had nothing to do with it, and if anyone is to blame here; it is me. She deserves the world and I chose to break hers.” I said, and Leonardo took a deep breath.

“Then do your best to earn her back. Because the blood that the two of you carry, your son, and the loyalty that you chose to swear to one another is one that kept us all protected. Yes, things happen, but the two of you grew. Somehow, you might not be

redeemed…”

“Are you my beta or my enemy?” I asked, and he smirked.

“I am your voice of reason because I saw the woman when you were on this bed, Enzo.” He said, making me frown in confusion. “She didn’t know that I was here, but the way she spoke to you told me that a lot in her has changed. She is hurt, Enzo, and you are the reason behind her pain, but she was more than willing to be there for you. She didn’t move, she didn’t eat, and didn’t sleep. She just waited for you to wake up. And I know that had I not sent her home that she would have stayed back. You don’t deserve it,”

“Thank you, Leonardo.”

“Earn her, Enzo. Fight for her, and win her. A bullet is not going to change anything of what you did, but it might be a

“He said, looking at the door. “I sent Ezio and his mother to

their house too.”

“How did he find out where we were? Don’t get me wrong, but the ambush and him suddenly being in the right spot at the right time. It just doesn’t make sense.” I said, and Leonardo shook his head.

“I don’t know. But seemed to be a little too aggressive for my liking. Something about him is different. Maybe I was reading too much between the lines, but I know to trust my gut sometimes, and my gut is telling me that something is terribly wrong. Though what it is, I am not sure.”

“Investigate on the subject.” I said, trying to sit up. Leonardo’s eyes widened, and he shook his head in question.

“What the fuck are you doing?” He asked, wanting to push me down.

“Call the nurses, I am going to go home. I can heal the rest of the process, whatever is left

of it, within the pack, and within my pack members. They need to see their Alpha standing

and those who think that they can go against us are going to need to know what it would mean for them to try and do so.” I said, and my beta’s eyes hardened.

“You are out of your mind,” he said, and I scoffed.

“I might be, but it is time for me to start making things right. And that is going to start with

the woman who is in the house, clearly worried about both our son and the pack. Ashton

is too young, and I am yet to announce that Alonso was never my son. The last thing that I

am going to need is for Katerina to be playing dirty, and knowing her and Jacob, I fucking

know that they are going to try and do so.” I said, and Leonardo nodded. “Call Viktor and

tell him to raise the pack’s protection. Trouble is in the air, and with the approach of

everything that we are going to deal with, we are going to need our allies.” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“And that means?” He asked, helping me sit up. I extended my hand to my shirt, putting it

and the heartbeat monitor, catching the nurses‘

and doctor’s attention. The man looked at me for a moment, and he nodded in

understanding, knowing that I was going to leave. He has his done his job and I was

thankful for it. He knew that I could handle the rest.

“It means that those by our side are going to need to be called. And we are going to need to work closely with them. Only when we have managed to gather enough of them are we going to be able to put that fucker in his place. And I think that you know that the last thing that he is going to expect is to find himself against us. However, we are going to have one small problem.” I said, and he raised an eyebrow, trying to understand what I was going to refer to. “Damon, we killed him, and Yaroslav…”

“His body was never there.” Leonardo said, making me frown in confusion. “We searched

everywhere, but we never found him.”

“Good,” I said, and he shook his head in question. “At least we know that our enemy will not try throwing us in a tough situation with Yarolsav. We’ll deal with them later, especially since it seems that the man has refused to react on his son’s treason. He might even be on their side. And at this point, I know to fucking trust no one.”

“For now, let’s head home. I think that it is time for us to start fixing the mess that’s been

made…”
