Chapter 111
Alaria:
“Enzo?” I asked, frowning as I caught his scent.
I walked out of the living room where Ashton was playing. At this point, I didn’t have it in me to even allow him out of my sight. The fear of something happening to him consumed me, and though I knew that he was safe in his father’s home, I couldn’t help but find myself being worried.
the pack He looked at me and I couldn’t help but find myself wanting to hug him. I knew not to, members weren’t going to understand, but the second he approached me, it was him who wrapped
his arms around me.
His eyes met mine and he smiled as we pulled away to look one another in the eye.
“How…?”
“I am supposed to be on bedrest if that is what you’re asking about, but the last thing that I was going to do was leave you alone when I know that things are as messed up as they are right now.” He said, and I took a deep breath.
“Alpha, we had orders not to allow the pack Luna in.” One of the pack gammas said, shaking his head in question. “Alonso is with her, and while she is…” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Katerina is a liar, and has been one since day one.” He said, making the pack members frown as they tried to process what he was saying. “She is neither my wife nor my Luna.”
“I’m sorry, what?” Jacob, one of the deltas asked.
“Alonso was never my son. It was one of the reasons why neither one of you felt a bond toward him and why I never found myself linking to him as my child. There was a feeling that wasn’t there between us, but I always thought that it was because I didn’t feel him growing. I was never in his life as a child, and I put that as a reason. It turns out, Katerina was lying to get power. She was betraying us all along, and has managed to fake a paternity test to confirm that he is mine.” Enzo said, looking around his now baffled pack members. I couldn’t blame them. This was a shock that no one would have expected.
“She claimed to be pregnant, Alpha.” Irina, one of her friends said. Everyone around seemed to be dumfounded, and I couldn’t blame them. I would have been had I been in their shoes. I didn’t even know how she had the guts to do something like this; but I knew one thing, the pack members were not going to drop the subject. The question was, whether or not anyone was loyal to her, a traitor to the Alpha.
“She was never with child.” I said, and the pack members murmured amongst themselves. This time, though, they seemed to not want to believe me. The idea of this being another lie was something that they didn’t want to put in mind.
“That is impossible. She got the results from the pack doctors. You may be hating on her, and you may have a grudge, but she wasn’t going to have the pack doctors and a few others lie in her favor, She wouldn’t be able to do so.” A few started arguing, and it wasn’t until Enzo let out a low growl that they all went quiet.
Chapter III
“That would require the pack doctor to answer to why she lies. And even if she was, the child wouldn’t be mine. The hospital said that she was three months pregnant at the time, it would be nearly five months now. Either way, the time period that they said was one when Viktor and I weren’t in the pack. Therefore, rather than attacking the woman, you should choose to listen.” He said, looking around the
pack members. Leonardo put a hand on my shoulder, gently squeezing it, and I smiled putting my hand on his, thankful for him. “If I can trust that ONE person is honest within the pack, it is Alaria.”
“Katherine was never my wife, and I never chose to have her as one. While she was my mate before the rejection to marry Alaria, I never married her later as it was something that I was against. While I am not sure why I was, I know that something told me not to marry her.” Enzo said, completing his sentence. “The idea of you disrespecting the woman who has mothered my child for all this time, on her own, is not one that I am going to accept.”
“The person that you are calling honest, Alpha, is the same one who kept your child from you for years. While Katherine lied, it is doesn’t Alaria anymore innocent. Her son knows not of our ways and he is not going to be fit as Alpha. And I doubt that you are going to raise him as to be one.” Alaric, a gamma asked. “Don’t get me wrong, Alaria, but we have boundaries and rules. You fit neither…”
“Put your self in her shoes.” Enzo said, stopping the man. “I came to her with divorce papers. She didn’t want to sign them, but I gave her no other choice. I was bringing Katherine in whether or not she liked it. She was loyal, peaceful, and she neither one of you can deny that she has done her part as the pack Luna. And whether or not we were married, she knew to keep to her vows and rules; she didn’t find herself being with another man as she mothered my son. She gave her life for us, and in turn, I doubt that anyone would have the right to say otherwise about her. I am going to be sure to have their heads if they tried.”
He looked at me for a moment and I blushed as he turned to look at the pack members again. “We do not deserve her. I know for fucking fact that I didn’t. But if I know one thing, right now, we have our pack to protect against the rogues. And the last thing that we are gong to do is submit to those who want to oppose us.”
“Therefore, those who are spies and those who are enemies hidden within, be warned and be sure to send my warning.” He said, looking around the pack for a moment before saying his last sentence. “We
are coming for all of you, and when we’ve had our hands on you, neither one of us is going to back out. I give you my word, all of those who dare stand against us are going to die. I will be sure not to show mercy to those who stabbed us in the back. Not this time…”
