Chapter 84

Alaria:

“What are you going to do?” Ezio asked, breaking my train of thoughts as I stood in the garden.

“I am going to take my son after dinner and leave, Ezio. I know that you want me to decide against it, but you know very well that I will not. There are things that I need to take care of, and as you might know, we have a mother who clearly doesn’t want me to be around her.” I said, looking at my brother who shook his head.

“Alaria, you know that this is your brother’s pack…”

“It wasn’t the case when you were sending me to Enzo, brother.” I said, stopping him. He looked down at his feet, and I smiled, taking his hand in mine. “Don’t worry, I am going to manage myself and my son. You just take care of yourself and mama. Be sure that the two of you stay out of trouble, and don’t get into too many arguments with her. She is tired as it is, and you don’t want to exhaust yourselves with the number of things that can go around.”

“And Enzo?” He asked, making me sigh.

“I don’t know what I am going to do with Enzo. But I am going to keep your word in mind. I am not going to be the one to tell him about what happened, not yet anyway. He is going to break if he hears it from me, and I don’t want to be the reason that things grow messed up. I just know that they are going to be more fucked up than I am going to want to handle.” I said, and he took a deep breath, thankfully, agreeing with me.

“You know that the house’s door is always open for you. I know that we hurt you when you needed us most, but you know that there are rules that we need to follow. We didn’t know that not once did I forget my…”
