“I mean… I have to return to school tomorrow,”
I said, this time I rose my gaze to meet his eyes. “To my dorm.”
He frowned and set his fork down.
“I see,”
he said, staring around my face curiously.
“I have roommates who depend on me being there,”
I continued. “If I leave then they would be assigned a new roommate to live in the third room. Becca worries about living with a stranger and—”
“Who said anything about you leaving your dorm?”
Enzo asked, his brows furrowing together.
“I just assumed that you’d want me to move into this packhouse and live with you. I mean it’d be doable because it’s only a 30-minute commute. But—”
“Lila, I already told you that nothing has to happen until you are fully ready,”
Enzo said, his tone soft and compassionate. “I meant what I said.”
I met his eyes; my heart began to beat quickly against my chest and a smile tugged at my lips.
“As much as I’d like to be around you all the time to keep you safe, I know it’s not plausible. I want you to enjoy this time with your friends and finish college. I never want you to resent me for keeping you from that. But I’d also like it if you came to stay with me during the weekends and breaks. If you ever want to visit your family, we can visit them together.”
He reached his hand over to mine and held it gently.
“I love you,”
he said, and I saw the seriousness in his eyes. “I wouldn’t make you do anything you wouldn’t want to do.”
“I love you too,”
I said with a bright smile; and I truly meant it.
He beamed.
“You know that’s the first time you said that to me,”
he said, picking up his fork again.
My smile widened as I leaned toward him and kissed him on the cheek.
“The first of many,”
I said in return.
I began eating and the thought of my family invaded my mind.
“I wonder how my family is going to react when I tell them about this,”
I said, a little bit worried about my father’s reaction.
“I can go with you this week to see them,”
Enzo offered. “We can tell them together.”
I smiled; I like that idea a lot.
At that moment, Ethan walked over to us; his face looked worried. He whispered something to Enzo and Enzo tensed, looking at me.
“Lila, I need to deal with something. I’ll be back.”
“Is everything okay?”
I asked, narrowing my eyes at him.
He leaned close to me and kissed my cheek.
“Alpha business. It never ends,”
was all he said.
He stood up and left with Ethan.
…
Enzo’s POV
“Word from the gammas that Paul and some of his men are outside the gates,”
Ethan had whispered into my ear.
My head gamma, Jack, and some other warriors were outside, keeping Paul from going any further. Paul was leaning against a red Mercedes with his arms folded across his chest. A few of his men standing nearby as well.
“I told you to stay away from here,”
I said, keeping my eyes on Paul.
“We know you are hiding a Volana wolf in your pack,”
Paul said through his teeth. “We can smell her.”
“It’s not a concern of yours,”
I said, anger fueling me.
“Maybe not… but it is a concern of yours,”
he said darkly.
“What the hell are you talking about?”
I wasn’t going to let him near anywhere near Lila; I would kill him if he tried.
“We want the Volana girl,”
Paul said. “We know you have her. So, I will give you 24 hours to bring her to me…or your mother will suffer.”
My heart fell into my stomach, Just as I took a step toward him, he stepped away from the car and opened in the backseat.
No…
Enzo’s POV
My mother sat in the backseat with bruises and cuts occupying her face. Her hands and feet were bound together, making it impossible for her to move, despite her desperately trying. Her mouth was also covered in tape, so she couldn’t speak but I heard her screaming through the tape.
I saw fucking red.
I shifted without another thought, growling so loudly that the earth shook.
Ethan and my head gamma, Jack, were also shifted into their wolves; they were ready to attack on my command.
Paul slammed the door shut, blocking me from my mother.
I lunged toward Paul, ready to bare my teeth into his flesh and rip him apart, limb from limb. He remained unmoved, a hint of a smile playing at the corner of his lips.
It didn’t take me long to realize why.
Soon, a shooting pain hit my head and I was falling to the ground in mid-air. The shoulder of my wolf hit the hard ground and we howled out in pain as the feeling intensified on our heads. It felt like my brain was about to explode. Nausea came quickly after, and spots clouded my vision.
I managed to sneak a peek at the men around me and saw they were too wailing on the ground.
I saw Paul’s shoes stepping in front of me and he knelt in front of me. I howled out as the pain grew worse, gritting my teeth as I glared up at the bastard.
Behind him stood a small-looking woman with white hair and eyes that looked avoid.
Telling from her aura, I could tell that she was a witch.
This pain was her doing.
I wanted to rip her throat out, but I was nearly paralyzed by the pain.
“Have you met my friend Cecilia… CC for short,”
Paul said, his tone kept casual, which pissed me off immensely. “She’s quite good at what she does,”
