DONNIE’'S POV
My gaze met Carlyle’s, with his eyes holding a mix of emotions- regret,
vulnerability, and an unspoken plea for understanding.
“Donnie, it's not what it seems. She was only here to take care of me due to... he
began, his voice shaky.
I made sure my expression remained unreadable, and the weight of Raina’s
revelation hung in the air The room felt charged with tension as everyone
awaited Carlyle’s response with the truth of the situation demanding
acknowledgment.
“The last time I checked, you should be resting without disturbance. Why is she
here?” Raina faced. Carlyle, then diverted her questioning gaze at Donald.
“Why did you let her in, Beta?”
I couldn't believe that my days of worry and fear about Carlyle’s well being all
turned out for nothing. So, he was with Raina within closed doors. Not even just
anywhere, but in his inner chambers. How and why did he allow her in, in the first
place?
First, Raina was a stranger who didn't deserve to be let into important places on
the pack, talk less of the Alpha’s inner chambers. Second, I was not allowed into
the premises because of the acclaimed bed rest with no disturbance that Carlyle
requires but Raina was allowed in. Not just for a while but she virtually stayed
with him all through the sickness. Who should be more respected. and more
important?
It baffled me, the audacity Raina displayed, barging into the Alpha’s inner
chambers when 1, hist supposed mate, was denied access. The inconsistency
was glaring my exclusion versus her unrestricted entry. It struck a chord deep
within me, questioning what Carlyle’s thoughts were exactly.
As Carlyle sought answers, my thoughts lingered on the injustice of it all. Was my
role diminished to mere caretaker during his illness while Raina enjoyed an
unearned proximity? The frustration simmered beneath my surface, awaiting
resolution.
“You shouldn't be here, Raina,” Donald said with a glare, but Raina knew exactly
what she was. doing.
“Carlyle, you're not saying anything. At least, I deserve an explanation.”
“Of course, you do. What...” he suddenly began coughing, as he winced in pain
slightly.
“You shouldn't stress him, Donnie. If anything goes wrong, will you take
responsibility for it?” Raina yelled, getting on my nerves.
The audacity of Raina’s words fueled a fire within me. How dare she question my
commitment and concern for Carlyle? The unfairness of the situation, where she
enjoyed unhindered access while I faced scrutiny, ignited a surge of anger.

With a firm resolve, I retorted, “I've been here for him when he needed someone.
I don't need permission or judgment. Carlyle can speak for himself.”
your
My response carried an undertone of defiance, a declaration that my loyalty and
care for Carlyle would not be overshadowed by Raina’s presumptuous claims.
However, I had no choice but to recoil to myself with the actions that followed
thereafter.
“And as his main healer, I said he doesn’t have to answer to you,” Raina uttered
firmly, standing up
to me.
I stared at Carlyle straight in the eye but he wasn’t saying a thing. Hurt, I felt a
lump forming in my throat as Carlyle remained silent. The pain of his silence cut
deep, and I struggled to maintain my composure. Blinking back tears, I turned
away, determined not to let Raina witness my. vulnerability.
As I left the room, each step echoed the ache in my heart. I held back the tears,
refusing to let anyone see the impact of what happened on me. It was a silent
retreat, a battle against the hurt and disappointment that threatened to
overwhelm me.
“Donnie! Sidonnie!” Carlyle called out to me, but I left without looking back,
shielding my emotions until I found a private space to release the pent-up
anguish.
CARLYLE'S POV
I opened my eyes to find Donnie by my side and it was a reassuring presence
that instantly lifted my spirits. The days of pain and frustration without her and our
son had been challenging, but her caring touch was like a healing balm.
Unable to contain my relief and gratitude, I couldn't help but express a sentiment
that surprised.
even me.
“I wish I could be sick more often if it means you'll take care of me like this, I
mused, a playful. smile dancing on my lips. The genuine care she showered
upon me in that moment made me appreciate the depth of our connection.
Just when I signaled Donald to leave so I
n have a private time with her, we heard noises from outside. Immediately, I
recognized that it was Raina’s,
Sighing. I exchanged a glance with Donald, both of us aware that Raina’s
appearance had the potential to complicate things.
“What is she doing here now?” I queried Donald under my breath through the
mind-link, a mix of frustration and irritation clouding my expression. It seemed
Rairia had a knack for choosing the most inconvenient moments to make an
entrance.
“I really don’t know.” Donanswered, but I glared at him instead.
“Didn't you say you made sure she was busy with something?”

As expected, Raina did nothing but
create a scene. She reveled in the
chaos she created, proudly
proclaiming her constant presence
during my sickness to Donnie. The

force that threatened the fragile

Donald sought an explanation for what Raina said, but I had to keep mute the
moment I was about to explain to her.
*Remember the deal, Carl. Don't be impulsive.” Donald reminded me before I
could utter the things that came to my mind.
Thus, I couldn't say anything despite the banter between my woman and Raina.
If not because of the situation, Raina wouldn't have been involved in my life in
any way.
Donnie left angrily while I directed my attention to Donald.
