FreeNovelChapter 0334 I stepped closer, getting a closer look beyond the wounds. From her features, Enzo looked a lot like her. I could see where he got his good looks because she was beautiful. She had big full lips, just like Enzo, and high cheekbones.
Her brown hair was long and flowing across her shoulders.
I wished she would open her eyes so I could see those too.
Enzo took a seat next to her bed and took her hands into his, holding them gently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMy heart ached for him; I couldn’t imagine what he must be going through right now. The pain he must be feeling knowing he couldn’t be there to protect his mother.
He lowered his head in defeat while still holding onto her hands.
It dawned on me that he hadn’t really told me a lot about his mother. I don’t know what kind of mother she was and what he was like with her. Then again, he turned out kind of great so she must have done something right.
But still, the question remained: Why was she living as a rogue? I was told it was a choice she made, but I didn’t understand why. Nobody has explained it any further than that.
I placed my hand on Enzo’s shoulder and just stood beside him. I said nothing, I knew if he wanted to speak then he would. But I knew for right now, he just needed some time.
“She spent her entire life protecting
me from the wrath of my father and his men. Now when it was my turn to protect her, I wasn’t here....” he finally” said after a long silence.
I widened my eyes at him.
“What do you mean?” I found myself asking.
“She fled the wolf society when I was only an infant because she knew how dangerous my father was. He told her if he ever saw us again, he would make her watch as he killed me...” “What?!” I gasped.

When I was born and didn’t look like 1 belonged to him, he rejected my mother and kicked her from the pack.
Told her to never show her face around here again or he would kill me and then kill her...” He paused to gather his thoughts and I couldn’t hide the tears threatening my eyes.
“She spent a long time protecting me, knowing that he could change his mind and kill us anyway. He had a lot of warriors and quite a following. My mother feared him... she still does long after his death. She refuses to return to the pack unless all my father’s warriors and following are gone. She doesn’t trust the world and the rogue village she lives in has become her home.”
od Wy TY OUNUS “I remember hearing that her village is hidden with the magic of a witch. Only those invited can enter. So, how did she get attacked?” Enzo was quiet for a moment longer as he looked down at his mother.
“She was probably scavenging,” Enzo said, shaking his head. “They knew they could get to me through her. She probably left the barrier to get something beyond their village. Or maybe they lure her out with something,” he said, shuddering at the thought. “But regardless, they took her and beat her to get back at me.” My heart squeezed painfully in my chest as I choked back a sob.
“I should have been there to protect her,” he whispered, defeated.
Before I could say anything, a soft voice came from the bed.
“It’s not your fault.”
