Enzo:
Alaria walked inside with a man. The two of them smiled and nodded at one another, and I watched as she went to hand him a handkerchief only for him to reject it.
Katherine, following my gaze, frowned in confusion and shook her head in question.
“What’s bothering you?” Katherine asked, catching my attention. I looked at the woman for a second and shook my head in question.
I:
“What are you still doing here?” I asked, and she frowned.
“My husband is in a hotel with his ex wife, am I supposed to be expected to leave?” She asked, and I rolled my eyes at her question..
“Yes, and you are expected to not speak back to me when you are asked a fucking question.” I said, and she frowned. I watched as she took a deep breath, pinching the bridge of her nose as she tried to calm herself down. The fact that she was growing annoyed was even more annoying to me. I gave her specific orders and yet, she chose to deliberately disobey them. The audacity that she had amazed me at this point.
“Enzo, I am your damn wife, not a mistress for you to be treating me this way. I didn’t even do anything…”
“Do not get me started on what you did and did not do. When I say a word, I expect it to be respected. Now, get the hell out of this hotel and back to the pack. Alonso shouldn’t be alone for this long.” I said, looking down at my phone. She. frowned, shaking her head at me before she got up. I expected her to leave, but instead, she sat beside me, taking my hand in hers, making me raise an eyebrow.
“Enzo, you know that Alonso is not alone. The two of us can stay together for a night. The whole pack can watch him and the number of maids, nannies, and tutors that are around him will be taking care of things until I am back. Please do not deprive me of this; it’s been a very long time since we’ve had any private time together.” She said, and I looked at the woman for a second. I looked down at her hand which was on top of mine before getting up from the couch that I was sitting on in the lobby.

She held her breath as she avoided looking at me and I walked toward the bar, needing a drink.

“You can stayi
you want. But I have things to do and won’t be spending time with you. Therefore, do not expect anything that is intimate.” I said, not bothering to wait for her to respond. “I think that you would enjoy a night in the hotel. You might as well get yourself tended to. They have a few spas here, I think that you can make use of them.”
I walked inside the bar to find Yaroslav Petrov, one of my partners and enemies, sitting there. His eyes met mine for a second before he raised an amused eyebrow as he got up from his chair.
“Sabrina saw me with Inna. She is not very happy and is choosing to cause a fuss. I am not willing to deal with her mess for the night and I am going to choose to just ignore it until she calms down. Normally, a present does it, but she needs to stay calm before that can happen.” He said, and I nodded. The fact that he was as blunt about it told me that he and his maiden had an agreement, silent or spoken, I knew not to address to it. “I hear that your ex is in the city,”
