Chapter 136

Chapter 1 3 6 Enzo:

How do you feel?” I asked, looking at Alaria. She smiled and I wrapped my arm around her waist, pulling her closer to me “I am good. A little exhausted, I have to admit, but it has been a very long time since I’ve felt as relaxed as I am.” She said, running her finger over my chest. I leaned in and kissed her temple, making her smile.

“The two of us have been supposed to be together for a long time. I am guessing that I had to learn it the hard way.” I said, and she laughed.

“Thing happened in a different way for the two of us. I am guessing that it happened the way that it did because we needed to learn the value of things that we have lost. Things wouldn’t have gotten to where we were If not.” She said, making me smile.

The fact that she didn’t turn me down, the fact that she kissed me as a response, I knew that despite her not saying yes, leaving it open, that she didn’t say no. This for me meant hope, and I knew to hold onto it.

I massaged her shoulder gently, and I couldn’t help but find myself smiling, purring in satisfaction as even my wolf felt content by her side. “This is going to be a long journey for us.”

We knew what it was to be when we got into this path. Katherine has chosen the game that she wanted to play. We are merely responding to what she is doing and we are going to keep replying until they are all done and dead” I said, and she nodded. Her heart raced, and though quiet, I could tell that she was thinking about so many things at once.

“Do you think that we are going to get out of this? I know that you are going to tell me that we are going to fight till the end, but…”

“I know that you might not think that it is true, Alaria. But I know that we are going to get out of this together. Yes, I know that we are going to end up dealing with a lot, and the damage that has been done is one that we would need a long time to heal from. I don’t even know what I am going to do when it comes to Alonso.” I said, and she frowned.

“What do you mean?” She asked, and I took a deep breath.

“I doubt that you would expect me to kill him, Alaria”

“Not at all, but I thought that he would be coming to stay with us?” She asked, making my eyes widen in surprise.

“I thought you said that you wouldn’t…”

“On different terms, yes, I wouldn’t have taken him in as a son. But when it comes to reality, the kid has nothing to do with what his parents have done. While I don’t know the influence that he’s been through by both Katherine and Jacob; I know that he is a child. The trauma that he might be in is not one that I would want for an enemy, and he is a kid. I don’t want him to be thrown in a situation where he would be alone.” She said, stopping me. “I might have ONE small condition, and while it is not one that I would expect you to put in mind. But sometimes putting up conditions is going to be a settlement of things.

“What is it?” I asked, smiling down at my beauty.

“He and Ashton are going to be both Alpha and his beta. Ashton as your heir but Alonso is going to be his beta by his side. I don’t want them to feel as if they would be a threat on one another, and though he is not your heir, he is still an Alpha’s blood.”

“A rogue,” I said, and she nodded.

“Not by his choice. He didn’t choose who his parents are, and I am sure that if he could, he wouldn’t have found himself in such a situation. Therefore, you can’t blame him for what his parents did, but you can’t deny that he is going to grow by your side, as your son, our son, and would be trained to hold the strong future by his brother.” Alaria said, making me smile.

I tightened my arms around her, pulling her to me, and I couldn’t help but find myself chuckling when she leaned in to my touch. I kissed her, biting her bottom lip before hovering over her body She wrapped her arms around me, pulling me to her, and I couldn’t help but smile as I tightened my arms around her. She whimpered in response as grinded against her, and I kissed her neck, sucking on her sweet spot. And I had to admit, it took everything in me not to mark her here and now, respecting the fact, and the boundary that she could want to still make.

After everything, I wouldn’t expect her to just give in as easily as anyone else would have. Plus, this was Alaria, I knew that her dignity was everything and it was something that I both loved and valued.

I went to push myself inside her, and that was when a heavy feeling settled inside me. Both Alaria and I went alert, and I wasn’t dumb, I knew that our wolves wouldn’t just be alert out of nothing. And it wasn’t until an explosion shook the ground beneath us that the two of us straightened. I shielded her with my body, before we both got up from bed. Now going back to being Alpha and Luna rather than lovers.

I pulled my clothes over my body and watched as she did the same before she rushed toward Ashton, who was now crying, clearly startled, “What is going on?” She asked as she was followed by two maids.

I put my hand on my son’s cheek, gently massaging it.

“I don’t know,” I said as another bomb exploded. I wrapped my arms around Alaria whose eyes widened as she tightened her arms around our son. “But I’m going to have to figure that out…”
