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... l 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.
“Dad, 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.” I explained with my voice carrying the weight of
regret.
“But, Donnie, you're our daughter. We could have faced whatever challenges
came our way together,” Mum said, her eyes reflecting a mix of compassion and
hurt.
“I know, Mum. At the time, I didn’t think clearly. I made decisions out of fear and
uncertainty. I didn’t want the life you had envisioned for me,” I admitted, a tinge of
sorrow in my voice,

Dad sighed, leaning back in his chair. “We've missed out on so much, Donnie.
Three years without you felt like an eternity.”
“I missed you both too, more than I can express, I confessed, tears welling up in
my eyes. “And I'm truly sorry for the pain I caused.”
In the quiet moments that followed,
Dad nodded, his eyes reflecting a range of emotions- understanding,
disappointment, and perhaps a hint of regret.
“I should've trusted you more, Donnie. Trusted that you'd make the right
choices,” he said, his voice softening. “You're my daughter, and I should have
been there for you.”
“I know, Dad. And I'm sorry for keeping it from you for so long.” I replied, tears
welling up in my
eyes.
Mum, who had been listening silently, spoke up. “Donnie, we may need time to
fully understand, but we're your parents. We'll always support you, no matter
what.”
“Donnie made sacrifices for Mason's well-being. We all have a chance now to
build something new, together.” Carlyle walked in at that moment, making it
obvious that he heard our discussion all along. That wasn't surprising, though.
Dad regarded Carlyle, but his expression was guarded and thoughtful.
“I need time to process all of this.” He said, heaving a sigh.
“That's understandable, Dad. I'm not expecting everything to be okay overnight, I
reassured him.
The weight in my chest lifted slightly, replaced by a glimmer of hope. The
conversation was difficult though, but it was a necessary step toward rebuilding
trust.
“How and when did Carlyle get you knocked up?” Mum asked in a whisper,
making me blush and nervous at the same time.
I hesitated, glancing at Carlyle, who remained composed despite the probing
question. Taking a deep breath, I began to recount the story.
..... It happened nights before I left. Carlyle and I...we were strangers back then
when we got close intimately at the bar, and one thing led to another. It wasn’t
planned, and it was a tumultuous period in my life. I didn’t think clearly, and the
consequences unfolded before I could grasp the magnitude of it all.”
Mum sighed, her expression a mix of disappointment and understanding,
“Donnie, we may not agree with your choices, but you're our daughter. We'll learn
to accept the circumstances and move forward.”
Carlyle interjected, “I take full responsibility for my actions. I care deeply for
Donnie and Mason, and I want to be a part of their lives.”
Dad, who had been silent for a while, finally spoke. “We need time to process
everything. Donnie, Carlyle, we appreciate your honesty.”
