Chapter 48

Katherine:

I frowned when I saw Enzo walking out of Alaria’s room.

The bedroom door was open, and I could see and hear Alonso inside the room, reading with Ashton.

“What is going on here?” I asked, wanting to go inside only to be stopped by Enzo who wrapped his arm around my waist.

He pulled me back, not allowing me to approach the room, and I frowned.

“Enzo, what is my son doing in there? You can’t seriously expect me to allow this bullshit?” I snapped, shaking my head at the man. He shook his head at me, silently asking me to calm down before he pulled me to our bedroom.

“Enzo D’Angelo, what the fuck are you thinking? The woman…”

“If you would let me speak instead of snapping; I am going to explain. But right now, causing a fuss in front of Alonso is only going to drive him to Alaria. He is going there, staying there, and is refusing all kinds of measures when it comes to the two of us because of this.” He said, pointing at the two of us.

My eyes met the man’s, and he took a deep breath.

“You are going to have to be smart, and you are going to have to explain the dangers of him staying with Alaria. I don’t care about Ashton. The kid can do my son no harm. She knows that, but if she grows closer to him…”

“You are planning something, aren’t you?” I asked, stopping him. He didn’t respond, but I could see his anger in his eyes. Whatever was bothering him, it was clearly about Alaria, and I knew that he was hurting. The idea of him missing her was something that I was always scared of “I am going to take my son from that woman.” He said, and I frowned.

“I initially didn’t.” He said, looking away from me. “But considering that Alaria is choosing to play dirty, I am going to show and teach her who she is up against. And if she doesn’t want to learn, then I am going to…

“You are going to what?” I asked. The man didn’t respond, instead, he cupped my cheeks. and kissed my forehead. His eyes met mine, and I frowned, not saying a word.

“I am going to deal with things my way, Katherine. You just make sure to take a good care of Ashton during that period, and I don’t want him being around Alaria. He is going to be influenced by her, and he needs to start understanding that Ashton is his competition.” He said, and I frowned.

“He is a bastard.” I said, ignoring the clench that I felt in my chest. The idea of him finding out about Alonso frightened me, but I knew to stay quiet as I looked at him, waiting for him to say otherwise.

Thankfully, he didn’t.

“He is still his brother. And you know our rules; I don’t want his name to be heard, and I want you to be sure that things are taken care of the way that we want them to be.” He said, and I nodded. “Alonso is going to come to the appointment with us. He is going to see his sibling, he is going to learn that his sibling and you are going to be his responsibility. He is going to be driven off from Alaria and Ashton one day after the other.”

My heart dropped, and I looked down at my lap at the mention of he appointment. I didn’t. even know how I was to be able to explain the situation to him. I didn’t have a way to tell. him that I didn’t want to go, nor did I have a reason to give him to stop him from forcing me to go.

“You know that this is not how things work, Enzo. You are angry, but this is going to be a lot harder than you think. The woman is smart, she knows how to get her way, and if she has the custody of her son…”

“I am going to work on that.” He said, stopping me. “In the meantime, I don’t want any mistakes from your side. The media has already put us in target years ago because you were caught as my mistress.

Alaria can use that against us, but I can use more than one evidence. against her.”

“Enzo, she doesn’t have anything that you can use against her. You know that about her…”

“You will do what? What are you going to do, Enzo? We are not going to keep going on with this without stable grounds! I don’t want to risk my son getting hurt while you take the custody of a child that I am not willing to raise as my own.” I said, snapping at him. He scoffed, shaking his head at me.

“You don’t even raise your own son, Katherine.” He said, making me suck in a harsh breath. “Just as he has maids and tutors to take care of him, Ashton will have the same. You are going to be that happy mother that takes care of her home, and just as we ran our home before, we would do so now.”

“I don’t want to live with the same…”

“I am not asking you what you want to and don’t want to do.” He said, stopping me. I looked. down at my feet, trying to fight the anger that I felt, knowing that the man that I love was looking at Alaria with anger. He didn’t want Ashton to take care of, he wanted to break her as she broke something in him today.

“You are doing this because she was with Alpha Damon, aren’t you?” I asked, avoiding his eyes. He didn’t move for a second, and I didn’t need to look up at him to understand that he was furious.

“What did you just say?” He asked, and I bit my bottom lip. I allowed my tears to fall from my eyes before looking up at him.

“You heard what I said,” I said, forcing myself to keep my eyes on his. His anger was seen in his darkening eyes, and though I stood my ground, I had to fight back the low whimper that almost escaped my lips when he stepped forward, towering over my body as he stood. His eyes were harder than they had ever been, and I didn’t need him to growl for me to know that I was in trouble.

“If you think of trying to cross limits with me, Katherine, then you are in for one fucking big surprise. And I give you my fucking word…”

“I am your wife,” I said, stopping him. “And if I am going to live in threat of a challenge. then I would rather not be here at all.”

“Is that so?” He asked, and I looked away from him. He put his finger under my chin, SEMANA OURO cans only!

11:36 forcing me to look at him before he connected his lips with mine. His kiss was hard, angry, and I could tell that he was anywhere but happy or pleased.

He pulled away to look at me, resting his forehead against mine for a second before he took a step back.

“Thank the child that you are carrying,” he said, and I fought back sucking in a harsh breath at the reminder. “You would have found yourself outside this pack a long time ago if not for that…”
