Alpha’s Second Chance Mate (Sidonie & Carlyle)

Chapter 33

CARLYLE’S POV

Taking a look at the sky, I realized that time was far spent already. Aridah was calling as I thought of what could possibly be happening in my pack without my presence. The Canthrastras weren’t to be trusted or underestimated.

In a sudden shift of the conversation, she inquired with a tone that resonated with longing.

“How are my parents?” Her voice carried a depth of emotion, revealing a heartfelt connection to her family.

“They’re fine. I made sure of that.” I reassured her as a sense of responsibility underlined my words, and I probed further, “You miss them?”

“Of course, I do.” She affirmed genuinely. Her acknowledgment resonated with a touch of nostalgia and a yearning for familial connection.

“You know, you can always return when you’re ready. They will surely welcome your well. The pack remains yours.” I offered her a comforting pat on her shoulder which I supposed she very much needed.

“Thank you,” she mumbled inaudibly, but it didn’t skip my hearing.

With a smile, I announced my departure.

“So, bye. I’ll be leaving too. I’ll come visit you when I get the chance. By then, I need a definite answer from you.”

However, she seemed very concerned and interjected.

“Wait, where were you headed? The road ahead is quite dangerous.”

“I know that, Donnie. But it’s a necessity for me to go. I need to gather information about the recent happenings in the pack.” The intensity in my voice hinted at the importance of the mission.

Concern etched on her face, she inquired anxiously, “Did something happen?” A hint of fear colored her tone, reflecting her worry for the pack.

“Nothing to be worried about.” I reassured her. Yet, her skepticism prompted her to press further.

“I won’t take that for a response. If it’s not something to be worried about, you wouldn’t be heading for the dangerous Mountain of Canth right now. So, tell me what’s going on. Her authoritative ione showed concern and determination, revealing a strong, assertive side that resonated with familiarity. My woman, she is!

“Okay, fine. Actually, I’m heading for the land of Aridah.” I told her, still amused by the way she questioned me earlier.
