Alpha Enzo by Ls Barbosa

Chapter 49

Alaria:

For the first time in my life, I found myself judging my own believes in this world.

It took everything in me to remind myself that the little boy had nothing to do with what his parents were doing.

“Mama?” Ashton asked, breaking my train of thoughts. I smiled and looked at him, shaking my head in question as I tried to distract myself from Enzo’s harsh words.

“Yes, baby?” I asked, clearing my throat to calm down. Alonso, who was standing behind. Ashton, hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth to speak.

“Did we upset you, Aunt Alaria?” He asked. I shook my head, giving the boy the best smile that I could muster. He didn’t deserve to be blamed for what his parents were doing. He didn’t deserve to be living in that regret.

“Not at all, why would you think that?” I asked, and he shook his head.

“You were quiet throughout the whole time after I left your room. I thought…”

“You didn’t do anything, Alonso.” I said, taking his hand in mine. I brought it to my lips, gently kissing his palm before looking at him. “The two of you are a light in this world, you need to keep that in mind.”

“What do you mean?” Alonso asked, and I took Ashton’s hand in mine, bringing him closer to me. I knew that things were going to be different from here. Though I didn’t know how they were going to change, but I wasn’t dumb, I knew that they wouldn’t just leave things to settle without a fuss.

“The two of you are going to face challenges, a lot of them. You are going to grow older, and stronger; but as you do so, both of you, I want you to promise that you won’t let those who are going to try to break you do so.” I said, choosing my words carefully. “I don’t know. where things would be going from here. Everyone is going to be busy, you, Alonso are going to have school, and Ashton, you’ll be forced to focus on school too. You might not have the time to stay or play together as much.”
