Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Enzo:

“I think that you should wear the emerald set tonight,” I said, looking at Katherine as she got ready.

It’s been a while since the two of us went on a ‘date‘, and I figured to use that excuse to get her to wear the set. Plus, I really was curious about what she was going to tell me. And then there was the fact that I was going to tell her that we were going to the hospital was another thing to take care of now.

Her eyes met mine, and I raised an eyebrow at the woman, curious about what she was going to say.

“The emeralds? Why them in particular?” She asked, her tone somewhat hesitant as she looked down at her heels. I didn’t say a word for a few seconds, but I watched as she walked toward her jewelry box, pretending to search for something.

Her heart raced and her hands shook, but I waited patiently.

“Is everything okay?” I asked, giving her the chance to speak to me. Telling me was going to be easier for her, and though I knew that she wouldn’t, I wished that she would be honest with me. It was going to cut this nonsense short.

It’s been three days since I heard of what happened, and in those three days, I waited day and night for her to speak. But nothing. She was refusing to even open the subject.

“Yes, yes, I just can’t seem to remember where I placed it.” She said, and I nodded, chewing the inside of my mouth as I did. “I am sure that it was in here somewhere. But let me go and check the safe. It should be in there.”

I smiled, trying to ignore the anger that I felt, my heart raced, and I had to debate on how I was going to react. Each way that I thought of wasn’t going to end well for her, but right now, I didn’t know what I could do to make this end well in the first place.

The woman was looking me dead in the eye, and instead of speaking the truth, she was lying so casually that it made my stomach churn. She stayed for a while, looking in the safe,

and I crossed my arms over my chest as I sat on the chair beside the window.

The frown that was on my face was enough for anyone to know that I was angry, and though neither Leonardo or me could find why she sold the set, I knew that she was up to something. Whatever it was, I knew that it was going to be coming out of the dark soon.

THE

She didn’t speak as she closed the safe, and walking toward me, she sat on the chair in front of mine.

“I couldn’t find it,” she said, and I raised an amused eyebrow.

“You couldn’t find a set that costs over fifty thousand dollars?” I asked, and she looked away from me, biting her bottom lip.

“One of the maids must have taken it. I might have dropped it somewhere or given it to one of the girls…” she said, proceeding with her lies. I stayed quiet for a second, thinking, considering what I was going to say. “Let me go and call Yildez…”

“You really are throwing this on the maids or one of the girls?” I asked, stopping her. She didn’t say a word for a second, processing what I just told her, and I shook my head in question. “Did a cat bite your tongue all of a sudden?”

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about, Enzo. That is why I went quiet,” she said, and I smiled, shaking my head at her. The disappointment that I felt was not one that I could. not describe. The way that she spoke and the way that she lied looking straight at me. I wondered what else she was lying about right now, and she as well as she knew her name that I did not tolerate treason of any kind.

“Is that so?” I asked, getting up from the couch. I didn’t want to hurt her, and I knew that I was on the verge of doing so. If she proceeded with her lies, I knew that my anger could. end up getting the best of me. And that was the last thing that I wanted to do. “Do you know how much I hate liars, Katerina?”

“Of course, I am always told that you don’t like it. It is something that you’re completely against. But I don’t understand why you’re telling me that right now.” She said, shaking her head. I growled and that was when I grabbed one of the perfumes that was on the dresser. Her eyes widened in surprise and I threw the perfume at the wall in front of her. The woman jumped as the glass shattered, splattering on the ground.

” HAVE YOU FUCKING LOST YOUR MIND?” She yelled, getting up from the chair. Her heart raced, and it took everything in me to control my wolf as I looked at her.

“Where is the fucking emerald set, Katerina?” I asked again, this time my tone was far more

ntimidating, and I could tell that she was scared. The whole pack went quiet, and I knew that it was due to hearing the glass shattering and their wolves sensing the anger of their Alpha. “And I am not going to repeat the question again.”

“I said that I don’t know,” she said, her eyes welling up with tears.

“Where was it the last time that you saw it?” I asked, knowing that she was playing with words. She wasn’t going to know where it was right now. The idea of the salesman selling something that she sold to him was common. Her doing it behind my back was what I didn’t approve of “One.”

“Enro, please

“Two, I said, glaring at her. “And if I reach three without an answer, you are going to regret ever setting foot in this pack

“Enzo, I am carrying your child. Please do not do this,” she said, and I chuckled. This was one of the excuses that I knew that she would use

It was the ONLY reason that would have. her living despite her lies. Then I was going to know what to do with her.

“I sold it,” she said, stopping me. “I had to sell it because Bianca needed the money to cover her husband’s scandal and story. She didn’t know how to confront the man and she knew that she couldn’t pay from her account; he would suspect something. She asked for the money and I was afraid of withdrawing it from our account.

“Please, Enzo, I gave her the money because she needed it. But please, I promised her to keep it a secret. I didn’t expect the news to get to you.” She said, making me take a deep breath. I took a step back, heading to the door, not wanting to see her face. “Enzo…”

“The one conversation that the two of us are going to be having will be when we are at the hospital next week to check on this baby.” I said, not bothering to look at her.

“What hospital?” She asked, her voice dropping as she asked.

“I called Daniella.” I said, looking at her over her shoulder. “Your appointment is next week, and I will take no….

“Shit…” Katherine said, holding her stomach. Her eyes widened, and she fisted her shirt as a cry of pain escaped her lips. “My baby…”

“Katherine?” I asked, frowning as I turned to face her. I ran to her side and lifting her in my arms, I held her to my chest as I rushed to the infirmary.

Alaria, who I saw with both Alonso and Ashton before entering the room with Katherine frowned at the sight before wrapping her arms around both kids, stopping Alonso from seeing his mother in this state. “Go inside, I’ll come right

“Mama…?” Alonso called, his voice low and filled with fear.

“Don’t worry, your mom is going to be fine,” Alaria assured. She nodded at one of the maids to take them back to the living room before she followed me to the infirmary room along with two of the pack members.

I laid Katherine on the bed, my heart racing as she cried out, holding onto her stomach. Bella’s eyes widened at the sight, but she didn’t say a word for a second before she nodded.

“Alpha, please, you and Ms. Alaria need to leave the room. We’ll check on the Luna and back to you…”
