CARLYLE’S POV

After rescuing Donnie, my life became a whirlwind of activity. There were endless meetings, debriefings, and arrangements to be made. Every moment was consumed by the urgent demands. of my responsibilities, leaving little time for anything else.

In the midst of it all, I couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt for not checking up on her and Mason. They were always in the back of my mind, a constant worry that gnawed at my conscience. But with the chaos surrounding me, I had to trust that they were safe and being taken care of.

Reports trickled in periodically, assuring me that they were indeed fine. Donnie was settling into her new life, finding her place within the pack, while Mason was thriving under the watchful eye of his caretakers. Each update brought a sense of relief, but also a twinge of regret for not being there to witness their happiness firsthand.

Exhausted from the day’s responsibilities, I finally returned to my chambers, craving nothing more than a moment of solitude to unwind and collect my thoughts. As I entered, the guard on standby approached me with a solemn expression.

Surprise flickered across my features at the unexpected news. Donnie’s presence was a rare occurrence these days, given the demands of our respective duties. Yet, despite the fatigue that weighed heavily upon me, I welcomed the opportunity to reconnect with her.

With a heavy heart, I thanked the guard and asked him to inform Donnie that I would be with her shortly. It pained me to delay our reunion, but I couldn’t ignore the responsibilities that demanded my immediate attention.

As the guard left, I turned my focus back to the matters at hand, determined to tackle them with the same dedication and resolve that had carried me through the day. Though my mind wandered to thoughts of Donnie, I pushed them aside, knowing that I would have time to be with her once. my duties were fulfilled.

Hours passed in a blur as I worked tirelessly to address the pressing issues that lay before me.

As I entered my chambers, a sense of unease washed over me, disrupting the tranquility I had hoped to find. Despite the exhaustion that weighed heavily upon my shoulders, I couldn’t shake the
