Alaria:
I had to force myself to avoid Enzo’s eyes as he looked at me, clearly shocked of my, OUR son, addressing me.
The man kept his eyes on me, and though he still kneeled down on his knee, shaking his hand, I knew that he was more than a little shocked with what he just learned. I couldn’t blame him, I knew that I would have had the same reaction had I been in his place.
Ezio looked at me for a second, knowing that this was not going to end without a proper conversation. But I wanted to be done with the day and out of here before” that happened. And knowing mother, I knew that she would have most likely booked me a ride to the airport the second the ceremony ended.
“I will leave the two of you to talk?” Ezio asked, somewhat hesitant. I looked at Enzo, knowing that he wanted to speak to me, and I nodded. It was Katherine, his ex, well, in this state, his mate and wife, who refused to move. Her dress reached her thighs despite this being a formal event, and I had to stop myself from shaking my head at Enzo, wondering how she managed to convince him.of this being. appropriate in such an event.
“I am not going to go anywhere.” She said, and I shook my head at her. A small smile played on my lips and I looked at our guests who were entering, knowing that this was no tirhe to argue with a woman like her. She got what she wanted, the idea of her being this insecure didn’t make sense to me, but then again, I knew not to judge them. They must have had their ways and I knew that I had mine.
“Well, I am.” I said, looking down at my son whose eyes were fixed on mine. “How about we take you to play with the other kids in the garden? Mama is going to be spending a little time with her guests. ”
Ashton smiled and nodded before waving his hand at both Enzo and Katherine. The woman’s eyes were fixed on him for a second, and I couldn’t help but notice. fear in her gaze, and though I didn’t understand why, I knew not to bother with questioning.
“I’ll be back in a minute, Ezio.” I said, and my brother nodded. My eyes met my mother’s, and though she didn’t say a word, her intense and harsh gaze spoke louder than her words ever would. The woman was angry, and I knew that she

wanted to make a fuss out of our argument earlier, but I also knew that she would be controlling herself enough to remind herself that tonight was about Ezio. She didn’t want to ruin it. Plus, the number of people that would be watching were going to judge whatever was going to happen, and that was the last thing that she
wanted.
I walked out with my son, his eyes meeting mine before I caught sight of the child who was supposedly his older brother, Alonso.
“Mama, who was that man?” He asked, looking up at me with beautiful blue eyes. I smiled and got down on my knee, looking him in the eye as I ran my finger over his cheek. Regardless of the anger that I felt toward Enzo, I knew not to make the child hate him. He was his son, and though unlucky when it came to that, I knew not to add up to it.
“He is one of the strongest of all Alphas. Mama’s old friend,” I said, and his eyes widened.
“Like a superhero?” He asked, and I smiled.
“Even stronger than a superhero.” I said, and his eyes lit up. I kissed his cheek. before looking at the other kids. Alonso was playing in a distance with two of his maids behind him, not socializing with the other kids. “How about you go and play? I’ll be inside if you need anything, okay p>
“Yes, mama.” He said, turning to the other kids. I watched as they started playing with a ball and I nodded at the headmistress who was with the babysitters, ensuring that they didn’t get too distracted. The last thing that we needed was an accident tonight.
I turned to go inside only to frown when I saw Enzo standing by the door, silently letting me know that he heard everything that I spoke of with my son. His eyes met mine, but I was quick to lower my gaze as I went to walk inside.
He wrapped his hand around my arm, stopping me, and I took a deep breath. before looking at the man questioningly.
“A superhero?” He asked, shaking his head in question. I pulled my arm from his grasp and gave him the best sarcastic smile that I could muster. The pain that I felt wasn’t one that I liked, and though I believed that I was going to be able to handle it, seeing him for the first time, in front of me, since the divorce did not come out as easy for me.

“The last thing that I want is for my son to know that his father is a douchebag, right?” I asked sarcastically. I walked past him, entering the house without saying at word as I forced myself to ignore the lump that I felt in my throat p>
My eyes met my mother’s and she frowned, seeing the state that I was in. She went to walk toward me, and for a single moment, I saw sympathy in her gaze, a gentle gaze of a mother before I came face to face with the woman that started this whole
mess.
“Stay the fuck away from my husband,” she said, and I shook my head as a laugh. escaped my lips before I could stop it. “I am not joking p>
“Oh, I’m so sorry.” I said, covering my mouth as my mother walked toward us, standing by my side. My hand shook and I was forced to ignore my wolf who was in more pain than I could let out, her pain affecting me greatly, and I knew that. even my mother sensed it. “You can keep him. You know p>
“What is going on here?” Ezio asked, seeing as a small crowd had turned to face us. Enzo, seeing his wife, rushed to her side before wrapping an arm around her. Both men looked at one another, but I had my eyes on his arm which was wrapped around her waist, making my heart feel like it was pulled out of my chest.
I went to respond only for Ashton’s cry and another kid’s call to catch my
attention.
“MAMA p>
