Alpha’s Second Chance Mate (Sidonie & Carlyle)

DONNIE’S POV

Returning to Moon Shade after more than three years was nerve racking. I was nervous and at the same time, I was scared. Carlyle tried his best to make me feel at ease, but it just wasn’t working.

I was only able to take my mind off it for a while when Mason began his rants and cheerfulness, seeing the beautiful scenery as we moved past them.

Mason, wide–eyed and curious, looked up at Alpha Carlyle during the car ride, breaking the silence with his innocent curiosity,

“Mama, is he a werewolf?” Mason whispered to me, loud enough for everyone in the car to hear.

I couldn’t help but chuckle at the straightforwardness of Mason’s question. I have always known about how curious he is about who exactly Carlyle is asides being his father. Mason knew about his personal identity and I guess he was curious if Carlyle was just like him too.

Alpha Carlyle leaned down to Mason’s level, with a twinkle in his eyes.

“Yes, little man, I am. And you know what? Your mama here is quite special too,” he replied, playfully nudging me.

Mason’s eyes widened in awe. “Really? Is Mama a superhero?”

Alpha Carlyle and I exchanged amused glances.

“Well, not exactly a superhero, but she’s definitely someone extraordinary. The fact that she’s your mama says it all.” He explained.

Mason pondered this for a moment before turning to me with a grin.

“Mama, are we going to

live in a werewolf superhero house now?”

The simplicity and humor in Mason’s question broke the tension, and I burst into laughter. Even Alpha Carlyle couldn’t resist a hearty chuckle.

“Well, buddy, our house is going to be pretty awesome, but maybe not the superhero kind,” Alpha Carlyle replied with a playful wink.

“Let me tell you a secret. You’ll have so much more fun when we get home.” Carlyle whispered, but I heard him clearly.

Throughout the rest of the car ride, Mason continued to fire questions, turning what could have been a total nerve–wracking journey into a delightful exchange that filled the atmosphere with laughter. Little did I know that Mason’s curiosity would be the perfect antidote to my nervousness, making our return to Moon Shade all the more memorable.

The familiar landscape of Moon Shade unfolded before me as the car approached the pack territory. After more than three years away, the nerves within me were tangled like a web of conflicting emotions. The anticipation of reuniting with my past and introducing Mason, my son,

to my parents and to the pack intensified with each passing mile.

As the car entered the pack’s perimeter, I couldn’t help but notice the bustling activities and the festive atmosphere that Seemed to engulf the entire territory. Banners adorned with vibrant colors fluttered in the breeze, and the scent of freshly bloomed flowers filled the air. The sight of the familiar surroundings stirred memories I thought I had left behind.

“Damn! It’s been years. I muttered aloud, heaving a sigh.

Beside me, Mason gazed out of the window with wide–eyed wonder, taking in the sights and sounds of a place that would soon become a part of his life. His small hand clutched mine as a silent reassurance that we were in this together.

The car came to a stop in the central courtyard, where the pack members had gathered to welcome us. My heart raced as I stepped out, the emotions swirling within me threatening to spill over. The cheers and applause that erupted from the crowd were both uplifting and overwhelming.

Alpha Carlyle stood at the forefront, his gaze meeting mine with a warmth that transcended words. Donald, my new trusted friend who I just met after leaving, was by his side, offering a supportive nod. The pack elders, familiar faces from my past, approached with smiles and open arms.

The magnitude of this homecoming struck me, and I felt a mix of gratitude and trepidation. Would they accept Mason? Would they understand the choices I had made? These questions lingered in my mind as the pack surrounded us.

As Alpha Carlyle extended a welcoming hand, I took a deep breath and stepped forward with Mason by my side. The intricate dance of emotions continued as I navigated through the greetings. and embraces. The pack’s enthusiasm for our return was both humbling and heartening.

to warm up to the attention despite his shyness as he clutched more tightly to Carlyle’s hand. His innocent curiosity drew smiles from the pack members. It was a surreal experience, bridging the gap between my past and present, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of belonging.

As the welcoming stances unfolded, I knew that the journey back to Moon Shade was not just a physical return but a symbolic embrace of my roots and a promising beginning for Mason in this extraordinary world of supernatural bonds.

And there they were, my parents, standing in front of me as I walked ahead into the courtyard, following just behind Carlyle. Time seemed to freeze as our eyes locked, and a surge of emotions engulfed me.

In that tearful reunion, I found solace and a renewed sense of belonging. The years apart, the struggles, and the uncertainties seemed to fade away as we stood there, a family reunited, ready to face the future together.

“Donnie!” Mum called as she embraced me tightly.

“Mum!” I called out in return.
