Chapter 68

Enzo:

kept my eyes on my wife as she slept, my chest aching at the sight before my eyes.

My wife, my son, and my whole pack could have died today. How it had happened was beyond me, but I knew that that this wasn’t something that I wasn’t going to let go. Alaria couldn’t have done so, I know that she wouldn’t.

But why was she in a rush the way that she was?

Where was she going? Why was she going to leave the way that she was?

I ran my finger over Katherine’s head, gently massaging her scalp, allowing my fingers to run through her hair. It’s been a while since I’ve held her this way, and I didn’t know how things had happened the way that they did.

“I give you my word, I am going to kill whoever did this. No matter who they are, I am going to make them pay for this.” I whispered. I slowly unwrapped my arms from around Katherine, gently laying her head on the pillow before covering her with a blanket. She had drained herself with tears, and I knew that the pain that she was in was great. No mother deserved to live the pain that she was in.

I kissed her forehead, letting my lips linger there for a moment too long before pulling away to look at her.

“I won’t let your tears dry in vain.” I whispered, taking a step back.

I walked toward the window and stood in front of it for a moment.

Alaria’s face played in my mind, and I couldn’t help but find myself doubting everything that I had done with her. The woman didn’t deserve the second thought, and here I was, I made a mistake and that mistake almost cost my entire pack.

“You almost cost yourself a lot, Enzo.” I muttered to myself as I kept my eyes out on the crowded streets. It’s already night, and I knew that Ashton left school a long time ago. I didn’t even know where she would be taking him, but at this point, she knew to handle

It wasn’t until I caught sight of him in his room as he ran toward the door, then back to the window, then the door. He was crying and screaming for help. The door
