Alpha’s Second Chance Mate (Sidonie & Carlyle)

Chapter 58

DONNIE’S POV

The embrace lasted a while, a silent exchange of emotions communicated through the warmth of our tightly held hug. In that moment, words seemed unnecessary as tears continued to flow, carrying with them the weight of the years we spent apart.

The silence spoke volumes, echoing the joy of reunion and the pain of separation. Each heartbeat felt like a reassurance, a reminder that we were no longer bound by the distance that once kept us

apart.

As the tears subsided, we reluctantly released each other, our eyes still reflecting the lingering emotions. There was a shared understanding that words couldn’t capture the depth of what we felt in that embrace.

“Dad!” I called out, staring right at him in the face but he didn’t say a word nor cry. I could tell he was hurt and was on the verge of crying but he hid it so well. Instead, he stared right back at me.

I stood there, expecting him to say something to put off my nervousness but he didn’t. Mum noticed this and nudged him with her arm to reply me.

In a low tone, he muttered his question while taking his gaze off me..

“How have you been?” He finally asked.

As he uttered those words, a mix of emotions washed over me. It was a simple question, yet it carried the weight of the years we spent apart. I took a deep breath, trying to compose myself before responding.

“I’ve been… okay,” I replied, the hesitation in my voice betraying the complexity of my emotions. “It’s been a journey, but I’m here now.”

His gaze met mine again, and I could see the concern etched in his eyes. Despite the distance and time, the connection between us was still intact, and his unspoken worry spoke volumes.

“We missed you,” he finally admitted, his voice carrying a blend of sorrow and relief. It was a statement that held the echoes of countless moments when my absence had left a void in their

lives.
