Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Alaria:

“MAMA!” I jumped as I heard Alonso screaming out loud. Ashton, who was listening to his bedtime story, frowned in confusion.

“Mama, what’s going on?” Ashton asked, letting me know that me hearing it wasn’t only because I was a wolf. Alonso’s voice was very loud.

“I’m not sure, but let me go and check.” I said, nodding at Cecilia. “Please stay with him. I’ll be back shortly.”

I ran out of the room and followed his voice as he cried in his sleep.

Two maids rushed inside already, and my eyes widened at his sight as he was sweating, trying to run in his sleep.

“Get me a glass of water,” I said, looking at the maids. One of them nodded, and I wrapped an arm around the boy, waking him up as I shook him gently.

He gasped, waking up, and my eyes widened when he looked at me. I cupped his cheeks, making him look at me.

“Where…?”

“It was just a bad dream.” I said, keeping my eyes on his. The maid ran inside with the water glass, and I handed it to him, allowing him to drink. “You were sweating, you need to drink.

water.”

“I was scared. He was going to hurt me, I had to run.” He said, shaking his head as he gulped. He shakily wrapped his hand around the glass of water, and it wasn’t until the door barged opened, revealing a panicked Katherine, that he jumped, almost dropping the glass. if I wasn’t holding it with him.

“WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY SON?” She yelled, taking me off guard. I stayed quiet, looking at the boy whose eyes widened before he flinched when his mother approached us. She grabbed me by my shoulder, wanting to turn me around, and I let out a warning growl.

Her voice made her son’s eyes widen and fill with tears. He closed his ears, and that was when Enzo reacted, grabbing her by her shoulders, pulling her back from me. I went to turn to her son, wanting to comfort him when my heart dropped at the fear that he was in. The boy had pissed his own self while Katherine was still fighting Enzo to get to me.

“Can one of you girls prepare a warm bath?” I asked, not bothering to even turn around as I looked at them over my shoulder. “How about we get you cleaned up? Then if you want, you can come and sleep in Ashton’s room? It’s a big bed, and I sure that he wouldn’t mind.”

“Who are you to decide what you want to do…?”

“Yes, please.” He said, stopping his mother. His eyes were fixed on mine, and I nodded, knowing that scolding him wasn’t going to do us any good right now. I went to remove the blanket from over his body, but he was too embarrassed as he tightened his grip around the duvet, stopping me.

Katherine froze, no longer saying a word as she saw me nodding in assurance. Her son didn’t even look at her. His eyes were fixed on me, and I smiled.

“Do you want me to close my eyes? You can run to the bathroom. I am sure the maids already have it ready for you.” I said, keeping a calm expression as I smiled at the boy. Hist eyes studied my face, allowing himself to understand whether or not I was being serious. I had seen and interacted with him twice until now. And the last one was him trying to play with Ashton, but after what happened at the ceremony, my son was somewhat hesitant.

It wasn’t until I interfered that he was willing to share.

Flashback:

“Now, now, what did mama say about sharing?” I asked, smiling at the two boys.

“But he doesn’t like to play. He only likes to win,” Ashton complained, crossing his arms over his chest. I raised an amused eyebrow at them before getting down on one knee, looking at the two kids.

“Hi, Alonso, I’m Alaria.” I said, and he smiled.

“Hello, Auntie Alaria.” He said, politely, making me smile. “I promise to be good when playing. I don’t have my own ball anymore. But I can bring my toy cars, we can play together if he wants.”

“Do you promise, both of you, to play nicely?” I asked, taking his hand in mine as I extended my hand to my son. Alonso looked at me, studying my expression for a second before he nodded. “Then, if you both want, you can play with the cars. But first, I have to see that you

know how to play without hurting each other. This is only a game, and even if it was a competition, one must never hurt another for it.”

“Can we make that as a deal?” I asked, and Alonso nodded. I looked at Ashton, watching as he studied the boy’s expression before he nodded. I didn’t even know how I was going to explain to the two of them that they were siblings. But that would come with time anyway. For now, we were going to have to deal with things as they were.

“Okay, we can play.” Ashton said, and Alonso smiled. The two of them got up and I watched as they played while I stood, watching them from a distance before I caught Enzo’s scent.

“How did you do that?” He asked, and I frowned in confusion as I turned to face him, trying to understand what he was referring to. “Alonso is not the type to accept listening to anyone…”

“Sometimes talking to them makes a difference.” I said, turning to face both kids. “And that’s all I chose to do.”

End of Flashback…

I closed my eyes, listening to the boy as he sprinted out of bed, heading to the bathroom before he closed the door. I sighed and got up, opening my eyes as one of the maids went to come to the bed, knowing that she was going to need to put new sheets and the mattress itself was going to need to be cleaned.

“I didn’t ask your permission before I asked him,” I said, turning to face the parents. “Would mind him staying with his brother for the evening? I doubt that he would be able to sleep alone, and the mattress itself would be too wet for that to happen…”

“He can sleep in your suite for the night,” Enzo said, stopping Katherine from completing
