Chapter 23
SIDONNIE’S POV
Confusion etched across my face as the guards dragged me away from my workplace. Panic set in my mind since I had no idea of what awaited me.
My mind raced to decipher the cryptic connection between the actions of the guards towards me and the recent encounter with Raina, the uncultured sister of the Alpha
Rex.
Questions swirled within me, yet the guards remained silent sentinels of authority. It was not the restraints that bound me, but the fear of the unknown that tightened its grip around my mind. The Alpha’s abode loomed ahead, a fortress of secrets where the answers to my unwitting transgressions awaited clarification.
Upon getting to Alpha Rex’s chamber, my eyes, still clouded with confusion, met the gaze of my mate– the harbinger of past nightmares and the tangled web that ensnared me with Raina. A shiver traced my spine, and I averted my gaze, unwilling to confront the haunting memories that clung to him.
The guards, unyielding in their grasp, dropped me a few feet from the Alpha, whose imposing presence commanded attention. As I lowered my gaze, a veil of fear filled me, acutely aware that my destiny now rested at the mercy of the Alpha’s judgment.
On my knees, a mere pawn in this unfolding drama, I listened as the Alpha’s voice cut through the tense air.
“Is this the lady you’re rejecting my sister for?” Alpha Rex asked Alpha Carlyle and I began to wonder what was transpiring between the two Alphas. Right from time, everyone knew they never agreed with
each other easily; something was always at
stake.
What was to be staked at that moment, I had no idea. Alpha Rex’s words hung like a heavy fog, and my mate’s response lingered on the precipice of revelation.
Raina whispered something to Alpha Carlyle incessantly, leaving me more confused about what was happening and why I was there in the first place since my whole existence was being ignored by them three except for moments when Alpha Carlyle took stylish glances at me.
“……I’ll take my leave now. When you deem it fit to have this discussion again, you let me know. Or when you deem it right to train your sister the right thing she should act, then we can repeat this discussion.” Alpha Carlyle said to Alpha Rex and his sister the
Chaker St
moment he got to be threatened with me
What was going on? I had no idea but I was beginning to get it. However, one thing baffled me continuously. How did they establish a connection between I and Alpha Carlyle? They weren’t part of our pack neither could they have heard it from Alpha Carlyle himself. He’s not much of a talker.
As soon as Alpha Carlyle left, Raina began acting childish, throwing tantrums
“Raina, enough with the tantrum. What’s going on?” Alpha Rex yelled at the sassy lady.
“It’s him. Rex! Can’t you see? He’s slipping away, and I can’t bear it.” She fired back at Alpha Rex. Such audacity could only be because of the sibling bond between them.
“You can’t force someone to stay. What’s your problem? You’re pushing too hard, Raina. You can’t control his heart. This mess is of your making. Stop being silly and childish.”
“Really? Is that what you’re going to say? If only father was alive…” She said and left without another word.
Now, I was left on my knees, being completely ignored.
“Alpha what should we do about her?” Someone asked and Alpha Rex made a sign for me to leave without questioning or further torture. It surprised me to the core given the
y I was dragged to his presence.
Immediately, I didn’t waste anytime before leaving. One could never tell what awaits one in his presence. Before he could have a change of mind, I was out. I didn’t bother returning to the restaurant; instead, I headed home.
As I stepped through the doorway with fatigue clinging to me, a burst of joy met me, rushing over to me. My two–and–a–half–year–old son, Mason. He raced towards me, his tiny feet pattering on the floor, wrapping me in a heartfelt embrace that momentarily dissolved the strains of the day.
“Mama” he called out to me.
“Hey, sweetheart. How are you? How was your day?” This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Tm fine, mama. Aunt Ena gave me snacks.”
“That’s wonderful! Can I see it?” I pinched his cheeks lightly.
I’ve eaten it.” He giggled, dirtying my cheek with his unclean hands.

“That’s good. And did you enjoy it?”
“Yes! He nodded his head.
“That’s amazing” I said, placing him on his feet.
“You’re back.” Athena smirked at me as she arranged the items in her hand in their respective places..
“Yes, I am. I replied, heaving a sigh.
My dear, there’s a heaviness i happen today?”
your eyes. What’s troubling your heart? Did something
“It’s a tangled day, really. Work, unexpected encounters. Life doing its dance.” I said not wanting to dive into details in front of Mason. Perhaps, because of his paternal background, he is sharper and more brilliant than his agc.
“Life’s waltz can be quite unpredictable. Care to share what led to that forlorn. expression? You arrived faster than usual too, it’s suspicious.”
“It involves a choice, a past I thought was behind me. And a little one caught in the crossfire. I sighed, speaking in parables. Athena smirked at me, taking her seat.
As I sink into the solitude of my favorite armchair, the echoes of the day reverberate in the recesses of my mind. The weight of moments, both sweet and bitter, lingers in the air like a delicate fragrance..
The hum of the day’s chaos gradually subsides, allowing the symphony of thoughts to take center stage. Faces, conversations, and unexpected turns replay in the theater of my consciousness. I find
myself dissecting each scene, probing the intricacies of choices. made and paths untaken.
The flickering lamplight casts shadows that dance with the ebb and flow of my contemplation. A carousel of emotions whirls within – moments of triumph and pockets of vulnerability. I trace the lines of a smile exchanged, the warmth of an unexpected gesture, and the sting of an unresolved conflict.
“What really happened?”
“It’s Alpha Carlyle. He’s back. I announced, not letting my uneasiness be hidden.
