CARLYLE'S POV

In the soft light of day, | stood at the agreed meeting spot according to the note with a sense of anticipation

mingling with determination. This place, known for its tranquil beauty, had been witness to countless rendezvous

and tender moments beneath the sun’s warmth. But today, there was an unsettling absence -an ominous one.

| scanned the area, my eyes searching for any sign of Donnie. The gentle breeze rustled through the leaves,

adding a whispering soundtrack to the scene.

Glancing at my watch, | felt the urgency of the situation. Years of leadership had sharpened my instincts, urging

Donnie’s non-appearance, though expected, punctuated the night with a poignant void. Now fully immersed in

the clandestine dance of intrigue, | couldn't ignore the unsettling nature of her absence. Something was wrong

and | needed to figure it out as soon as possible as she could be in danger.

“I doubt that she’s here.” Said, Donald.

“I know, and that’s the more reason I'm so worried. With her character, she would definitely have. left if she

waited too long without seeing me. She’s got not much of a chill.”

“You're right on that. How do you intend to find her now that she’s not here?”

“I've tried tracing her sent but it feels like there's something stoppingfrom knowing where the scent leads.”

Out of nowhere, a mysterious fog crept in, unwelcand unsettling, distorting the familiar surroundings. My

awareness sharpened as | cautiously moved through the ethereal mist, each step leadingfurther into

unfamiliar territory.

As the mist thickened, distorting the edges of perception, my surroundings morphed into ant otherworldly

tableau. The boundary between the tangible and the ethereal blurred, casting shadows that danced with the

whispers of uncertainty.

In the ephemeral realm created by the mysterious mist, | felt a chill in the air—an arcane premonition that

Donnie’s absence was not merely a result of circumstance but a carefully. orchestrated act.

“Are you okay?” Donald asked. From the looks of it, he didn’t seem to be affected by the mist. | tried to tell him

what was going on with me, but it felt like there was sforce that suddenly had my mouth zipped.

Determined and resolute, | pressed on, refusing to be deterred by the mysterious puzzle before him. With each

step, | was driven by a relentless resolve to uncover the truth hidden within the mist. The sun, a steadfast

observer of the unfolding events, bathed the surroundings in a golden hue as | ventured further into the riddle

that had swallowed Donnie whole.

After so many trials, | couldn't get anything and before | knew it, everything was normal aroundonce again.

“What happened just now | asked Donald,

“Nothing special, Carl. Just that you were suddenly acting weird.”

“Wasn't there a mist just now?”

“No, there wasn’t. Did something happen?” he placed his hand on my shoulder to see if | was okay as | briefed

him about what happened.

“This is more than ordinary. Something wild might have happened to Donnie. We need to act

fast”

Fueled by the urgency of the situation, | orchestrated a quiet but thorough search for Donnie. The whole squad,

sworn to protect the pack’s interests, joined the nocturnal quest without arousing the pack’s suspicions.

My orders were conveyed in hushed tones and through mind-links, a silent symphony of cooperation echoing.

The search squad moved like shadows, their senses attuned to every rustle of leaves, every faint sound that

could lead them to Donnie’s whereabouts.

The royal abode beca staging ground for the covert operation. Flanked by the dedicated members of his

pack, | moved with the precision of a strategic mind navigating the intricacies of a battlefield. Every corner,

every secluded space was scrutinized, each shadow interrogated for

answer

My heartbeat synced with the rhythm of the night, an unspoken plea for Donnie’s safety echoing in each thud.

The minutes stretched into hours, a test of patience for the leading the search.

The evening air whispered secrets but divulged no clues.

As the sun dipped towards the horizon, casting shadows that heralded the coming night, the truth becclear-

we still had no clue where Donnie was. Despite our thorough search under the cover of night, the mystery of his

disappearance remained unsolved.

Returning to my chambers, | was greeted with another bad news as if ive not had enough that day. Mason's

nanny greetedwith a somber expression, her usually cheerful demeanor overshadowed by concern.

“Alpha Carlyle, there’s something you need to know,” she began, her voice trembling with apprehension.

Instantly, my heart clenched with a sense of worry. “What is it, Delilah? What's wrong?” | asked, my voice barely

above a whisper, fearing the answer that awaited me.

“It’s Mason,” she replied, her words heavy with emotion: “He’s running a high fever, and I'm afraid it’s gotten

worse throughout the day.”

Mason. My son. The very thought of him in distress sent a surge of panic coursing through my veins. In that

moment, the weight of the world seemed to crash down upon me, eclipsing all other

concerns with the urgent need to be by his side.

Without a second thought, Lsprang into action, my mind racing with a million thoughts and fears. Questions

tumbled through my mind like loose debris in a storm, each one more pressing than the last. How high was his

fever? Was it something serious? Would he be okay? How exactly did he becso ill?

As Delillah filledin on the details, her words beca blur, lost in the chaos of my racing thoughts. All that

mattered was getting to Mason, ensuring his safety and well-being above all else. | haven't found Donnie yet,

and | can’t risk anything bad happening to Mason.

With a sense of urgency that bordered on desperation, | gathered my things and rushed out the door, my heart

pounding in my chest like a drumbeat of dread. Arriving at the pack hospital, | walked through the maze of

corridors with a sense of purpose that bordered on obsession.

Every moment felt like an eternity with each step bringingcloser to the truth that awaitedat Mason's

bedside.

Finally, | reached his room, the sterile scent of antiseptic assaulting my senses as | pushed open the door. And

there he was, my precious boy, lying pale and still against the stark white sheets of the hospital bed.

My heart shattered at the sight of him, his small form engulfed by the enormity of the hospital room. But despite

the fear and uncertainty that gripped me, one thing remained clear: | would do anything, everything, to ensure

his recovery.

Taking his hand in mine, | whispered words of reassurance, willing him to find strength in the sound of my voice.

Int

my usually authoritative demeanor tempered by concern, | approached the healers with a mixture of urgency

and respect.

“How is he?” | inquired, my voice a low rumble echoing the weight of my worry.

One of the lead healers, a seasoned member of the pack with years of experience, met my gaze. “Alpha, we're

doing our best. Mason's condition is unusual, and we're trying different approaches to pinpoint the cause.”

Carlyle nodded, his brow furrowed. “Unusual? He was perfectly fine until today. What happened?”

The healer hesitated for a moment before responding, choosing his words carefully. “We're not. entirely sure yet.

It's as if his energy is being drained, but there's no obvious source or ailment. We've called upon spiritual healers

to explore any supernatural aspects that may be at play.”

My jaw tightened at the mention of supernatural elements. “Do whatever it takes to find out what's affecting

him. Mason is resilient; this sudden change is alarming.”

The healers exchanged glances, sensing my underlying distress. Another healer, focusing on a mystical aspect,

added, “We're performing a thorough spiritual cleansing to ensure there are no lingering effects. We'll update

you as soon as we have more information.”

| nodded again, gratitude mingled with impatience. “Keepinformed, and do everything in your

power to heal him if you don’t want to lose your heads. Mason is the future of this pack, and | can’t afford to lose

him.”

As | stepped back, | couldn't shake the unsettling feeling that something profound was at play, threatening the

very core of the pack’s strength. The healers resumed their efforts, driven by a shared determination to restore

Mason to his vibrant self, while | continued to wait.

Then, | got a note tellingwhat to do to save Sidonnic.

“Take off the Royal Crescent insignia from the pack borders, stop probing into matters of the Sertid pack and

calone to the Moonlit Falls by midnight if you agree to these terms. Failure to comply will result in dire

consequences for your beloved mate.” It read. The message was obviously anonymous.

My eyes narrowed as | read the threatening note. The demands struck at the very heart of my authority,

challenging the core of my identity as an Alpha. It was a dilemma that lefttorn between my duty to the pack

and the urgent need to save Donnie.

Donald, observing the turmoil in my expression, voiced his concern. “Alpha, this is a dangerous. request. You

can’t just abandon your role, especially with the current uncertainties in the pack.”

My jaw clenched as | wrestled with the conflicting emotions. “I won't let anything happen to Donnie. If this is

what it takes, I'll do it.”

Donald's gaze hardened with determination. “I'll stand by your side, Alpha, no matter what. But let's approach

this cautiously. We need a plan, not just blind compliance.”

| nodded with a steely resolve in his eyes. “Gather a skilled few, those we trust implicitly. Tis of the essence.

We can’t let Donnie suffer any longer.”

As the Moonlit Falls beckoned under the veil of night, | prepared to face a challenge that not only threatened my

authority but also tested the limits of my love and commitment to Donnie.

However, before | could leave, my face contorted in pain as my illness resurged, grippingwith renewed

intensity. Beads of sweat formed on my forehead, and my breaths beclabored.

“You're suffering a relapse,” Donald moved to call for Raina’s assistance, sensing the severity of the situation.

“No!” My voice was strained as my eyes reflected both pain and frustration. “I regret ever seeking her help in

the first place. I'm not letting her nearagain.”

Donald hesitated, torn between the urgency of my condition and my adamant refusal. “Alpha, we need to

consider all options, Raipa might be our only chance to save you.”

My eyes narrowed with determination. “I'd rather face this alone than give her the chance to givea hard

time. Find another solution, Donald.”

As the battle against my illness waged within him, | grappled not only with physical pain but also with the

haunting consequences of my decisions.

In the hushed chamber, Carlyle’s struggles gradually subsided, replaced by the eerie stillness of

unconsciousness. The healers exchanged concerned glances, their expressions betraying the gravity of the

situation.

“He doesn’t have much time,” one of the healers murmured, her voice laden with the weight of impending loss.

Standing by Carlyle’s side, felt the urgency of the moment. Tseemed to slip through our fingers like sand,

leaving us with a narrowing window of opportunity. The Alpha’s life hung in delicate balance, and the once-

mighty leader now lay vulnerable, tethering on the edge of mortality.

“We need to act quickly,” | urged the healers, my gaze fixed on Carlyle’s weakening form. “Find Raina. We can’t

let pride stand in the way of saving his life. | muttered to myself.

Reluctantly, | reached for my communication device, acknowledging the difficult truth that, in this desperate

moment, | had no choice but to seek Raina’s assistance.
