Chapter 50

Alonso:

I walked inside the room, smiling when I saw that mama was back early.

It was very rare when she was, but she didn’t say a word when she saw me walking inside. She just sat on my bed, looking down at her lap.

“Mama?” I called. She jumped in surprise, making my eyes widen before she got up from the bed. She rushed to me, as if running, before she cupped my cheeks to look at me.

“Alonso, I was so worried about you.” She said, and I frowned.

“I was in Auntie Alaria’s room. I didn’t go anywhere, mama.” I said, smiling at her. She didn’t smile back, and I looked down at my feet, growing worried. I knew that she didn’t like Auntie Alaria, but I didn’t understand why.

“Alonso, I told you not to go to their room. Why do you still keep doing so?” She asked, and I looked away from her. I wanted to go there. I wanted to be able to sit with Ashton and play with him.

“I was playing with Ashton before, then I was doing my homework. I needed help and Auntie Alaria was kind. She explained the lesson to me and now I understand it.” I said, and the frown that was on her face made me scared. I looked down at my feet, not wanting her to be angry. “I am alone all the time, mama. I don’t want to stay alone.”

“You have tutors that come to teach you, and your maids are always here by your side. All you have to do is ask for one of them to either explain the lesson to you or even play with. you,” she said, and I shook my head.

“Why does Ashton have his mama explaining things to him while I have tutors? I want to play with him.

I want to make friends…”

“That boy is your enemy, Alonso.” She said, and I took a step back. “Alaria is just pretending to like you. I know that she doesn’t, and she herself said a bad word about you. I don’t want to say it, but…”

11:37 “Auntie Alaria is very kind. She wouldn’t say a word about me, mama. She stays with me when ALL of you are out and are busy. I don’t believe that she is going to say anything that would hurt me.” I said, shaking my head.

Mom closed her eyes and got on her knees in front of me, taking my hands in hers.

“You can ask her. You can tell her if she said that you were a bastard.” Mom said, and I frowned. I only heard that word once, it was said to a classmate. The girl left class crying, and when we asked, no one would answer us.

“I don’t know what that means.” I said, looking away from her.

“It means that you are a scandal. Something that is wrong and unwanted.” She said, and I felt tears in my eyes. No, Auntie Alaria wouldn’t say that. She wouldn’t call me unwanted or wrong. “If she can look you in the eye and lie. I am going to come myself and we will see if she can lie to you in front of me.”

“Why would she say that?” I asked, wiping my tears before they fell from my eyes. Mom was quiet, she didn’t say anything about me crying.

“Do you know who your Aunt Alaria really is, Alonso?” Mom asked, and I nodded.

“Before you were born, she entered my and your father’s life. Because of her, we broke up.” Mom said, and I frowned. “Remember when you grew up without your father? It was her fault; she married him.”

“You mean, Ashton is my..

“She wants to say that he is, but I know that he is not.” Mom said, and I gulped. I held my breath, wanting to understand as I kept my eyes on mama. “But she is going to try and put Ashton in your place. She is going to try and make your father love him more. If that happens…”

Mama took my hand in hers, slowly putting it on her stomach. “Both you and your baby sibling are not going to be safe. She is going to hurt you two, and she will turn your father. against you.”

I shook my head, quickly removing my hand. Auntie Alaria wanted Ashton and I to be together as two Alpha bloods. She was not going to hurt me.

“Alonso, are you crying…?”

“Did you call me a bastard?” I asked, and she frowned. Her eyes studied my expression, and she went to come closer to me, wanting to wipe my tears but I stepped back. Ashton was in the room, looking at the two of us.

“Alonso, who told you that?” She asked, her eyes meeting mine. She was not angry, but I could tell that she wasn’t happy. “That…”

“Mama told me,” I said, stopping her. I shook my head at her, looking down at my feet. “It is not true, right? You did not say it.”

“Alonso, this is an argument between your mother and I. Why did she…?”

“Is Ashton my brother?” I asked, and she held her breath. She looked back at Ashton then at 1. me.

“Yes,” she said, and I wiped my tears.

“Did you call me a bastard?” asked again. She stayed quiet, but I saw tears forming in her eyes. “I will never in my life come to this room again.”

“Alonso…”

“Mama is right,” I said, taking a step back. “You want to steal papa from me and my sibling. I will never allow it.”

I walked out of the room without saying a word before walking back to mama. She looked at me and I cried as I ran to her arms, hugging her tightly.

“I am sorry, mama. I did not know.” I said as she wrapped her arms around me. “I really did.
