Chapter 59

DONNIE’S POV

Mason looked back the moment he heard his name. I glanced at Dad but the expression on his face was so stern and uncompromising.

*Mason, let mama show you her room and toys which you can play with before I finish talking with grandpa.” I led him to my personal room in order to prevent him from hearing what Dad has to say. He might be small and not understand the indepth of things but he remembers things easily no matter how long. So, I didn’t want him to get the wrong impression of his grandpa, being the first t

time he would be seeing him.

In no time, I returned to the table, sitting exactly opposite Dad who still looked so serious.

“So, who is his father? Who impregnated you?”

The question was direct and laced with a seriousness that hung heavily in the air. I took a deep breath, bracing myself for a conversation I had avoided for years.

“Dad, his father is Carlyle,” I confessed, watching as his expression shifted from stern to contemplative. The revelation lingered in the room as a weighty truth that needed acknowledgment.

“Carlyle,” Dad repeated, his tone neutral. “The Alpha of this pack?”

“Yes,” I affirmed with my eyes meeting his in a mixture of apprehension and vulnerability.

He sighed, a heavy exhale that seemed to release some of the tension in the room. “Why didn’t you tell us before?”

“I… I was scared. Scared of what you might think, how you’d react. And I didn’t want Carlyle to be judged solely based on our history.”

“Why did you leave in the first place? Do you know how much you hurt us? You know you’re the only child we have, yet, you decided to leave without looking back.”

His question hung in the air, a poignant reminder of the pain that lingered beneath the surface. I took a moment to collect my thoughts, my gaze fixed on the table as memories of the past flooded back.

Mum, I left because I thought it was the best decision for everyone involved. I was pregnant, scared, and unsure of what the future held. I didn’t want to be a burden or disrupt Carlyle’s life. Moreover the relationship between us was quite complicated back then.”
