Chapter 8

Alaria:

“Alaria, are you sure that it is a good idea for you to leave after what happened? Enzo just found out about Ashton…”

“All the more reason to leave, brother.” I said, stopping Ezio who looked down at his feet. “Plus, mom doesn’t want me here, and believe me, I am dead tired of her arguments and fights. I know when I am not welcome somewhere, and I know to leave before I am kicked out.”

“Alaria, this is your brother’s pack and home. You are not going to be kicked out of here.” He said, and I shook my head at him as a small smile played on my lips. I took both his hands in mine and gently kissed his knuckles. His eyes widened and he turned my palms to kiss mine..

“I know that you don’t like this, and I understand your reasons, Ezio. But there are many things that we are not going to be able to change, and one of them is this. Dad sent me as an exile, and mom is only going to do what he wants. I am not going to argue with that nor am I going to put her through the pain of defying him. when his grave is still wet.” I said, reminding him that he barely passed away a few days ago.

You get some rest. It has been a long day for you too.”

He didn’t say a word as he looked at me, and though I knew that he wanted to stop me; he knew better not to. Mom looked at me as I walked toward Ashton, carrying him in my arms before she raised her hand, stopping me before I could lift him.

“The guest room is ready for you. You have fresh clothes and a towel. It is far too late for you to be driving at this time of night, and I believe that you are going to want to get some sleep.” She said, and I looked at my brother whose smile grew wider. I didn’t say a word as I took a step back, knowing that me staying in the guest room meant that I no longer had my room in the pack anymore.
