Chapter 76

Enzo

I frowned when I looked at Katherine as she lay on the chair beside Alonso.

He was still in the hospital and was still asleep, something that angered me as I knew that I was forced to stay quiet, at least until he woke up and we went home.

“Enzo?” Katherine called, her eyes widening in surprise when she took sight of me. I looked at her and she walked toward me, wanting to wrap her arms around me as to pull me in for a hug. I had to stop myself from pulling away, reminding myself of the game that I was going to have to play. A game where she was going to have to believe that I didn’t know anything.

of the worst.”

“You don’t have to think of the worst. What you need to do right now is try to think straight. While yes, I know that you are tired and scared, and I know that you have so much on your mind, but there are things that you need to focus on. They are more important for you right now. Alonso is in safe hands, but you have your pack and home to take care of too. They
