Alpha’s Second Chance Mate (Sidonie & Carlyle)

Chapter 61

CARLYLE'S POV

The day was filled with a sense of anticipation as the army recruits and trainees from various supernatural

groups arrived at Moon Shade. After settling Donnie and Mason down to be around me, | returned to focus on my

primary actions that should be.

| needed to ensure that the stay of the new visitors and guards into our pack would be seamless, and the

progress of their training was a matter of concern. | called for a discussion with Donald, my trusted Beta and

friend, to assess the situation.

“Donald, we need to discuss the progress of the recruits and trainees. Their integration into the pack is crucial

for our unity and strength. What's your assessment so far?” | asked.

“Carlyle, overall, the progress has been promising. The recruits are adapting well to the pack dynamics, and their

training is underway. However, there are schallenges we need to address.”

“Tellmore about these challenges. We can’t afford any setbacks, especially with the potential threats

looming.”

“Sfriction has emerged among recruits from different supernatural groups. It’s understandable, given their

diverse backgrounds, but we need to foster a sense of unity. | recommend organizing joint training sessions and

team-building activities to bridge the gap.

“Good suggestion, Donald. Unity is our strength. | want them to see beyond their differences and work together

as a cohesive force. Arrange those joint sessions and monitor their progress closely. What about their combat

training?”

“The combat training is progressing well. They are showing resilience and adaptability. I've assigned seasoned

warriors from our pack to mentor and guide them. It’s helping build camaraderie and trust.”

“Excellent. We need a strong, united front. Keep a close eye on their mentorship program. Also, arrange a

meeting with the mentors to address any issues they might be facing. We can’t afford any weak links in our

defense.”

“I'll ensure everything is in order, Alpha Carlyle. The recruits have potential, and | believe they can contribute

significantly to our pack’s strength.”

“Very well, Donald. Continue overseeing their progress, and if there are any major developments, inform me

immediately. Our pack’s future depends on their integration and training.”

The success of these recruits wasn’t just about training; it was about forging a powerful alliance within Moon

Shade to face the challenges that lay ahead.

As | strolled with Donald through the pack territory, the air suddenly shifted, and Raina appeared before us, a

sinister grace enveloping her every move. Despite my internal turmoil, | suppressed the immediate urge to

attack. The memories of the past surged forward, the pain she caused bothand Donnie still fresh.”

“Raina, what brings you here?” | queried sternly.

“Alpha Carlyle, always a pleasure to be in your esteemed presence. | merely wanted to check on the progress of

your reign.” na smirked. Donald growled softly, fully defensive against whatever

antics she might have in mind.

I held up a hand, signaling Donald to stay calm.

“You've overstayed your welchere, Raina. We have no interest in your presence. Leave.”

“Oh, Alpha, you can’t dismissso easily. | have my own interests, and they align with the fate of this pack.”

She laughed softly.

“Your interests have no place here. Your actions in the past have left scars, and | won't tolerate any further

disturbance. You can leave.”

“Scars can be intriguing, don’t you think? Raina tilted her head.

“I won't have anymore of your taunts, Raina. | have the power to take you out of here right now.”

“That's not for you to decide, Alpha Carlyle. You should tell that to my brother.”

“What do you mean? Your brother didn’t send a notice beforehand.”

“It's here,” she handeda seal of permission which permitted her to cto Moon Shade.

| glanced at her quizzically as she stared atin return.

“I'm here for inspection and supervision of the training which includes my pack members.”

| raised an eyebrow in disbelief, skepticism etched on my face.

“Supervision? | don’t recall inviting you to assess the training in my pack. Your pack members have no business

training here.”

“Alpha Carlyle, you know as well as | do that our territories intertwine. The wellbeing of your pack inevitably

affects mine. I'm merely ensuring a harmonious coexistence.” She smirked.

“Harmonious coexistence? More like meddling in our affairs.” Donald snorted.

“Raina, | won't tolerate interference. My pack’s training is our concern, not yours.”

“Alpha, your pack is thriving under your rule, but sometimes, a guiding hand is necessary. | offer my assistance

out of goodwill.” Raina laughed softly.

“We don’t need your goodwill, Raina. Leave, or there will be consequences.”

Raina was so strong willed that she failed to leave mk matter how I tried for her to. Reluctantly, | agreed to

Raina’s so-called “supervision,” though every fiber of my being resisted the notion. Donald shota concerned

look, silently expressing his disagreement. We both knew Raina’s motives were strongly questionable, and

allowing her into our training grounds felt like inviting a fox into the henhouse.

“Donald, keep a close eye on her. We can’t afford any disruptions during the training sessions.”

“You got it, Alpha. I'll make sure she doesn’t overstep.”

RAINA’S POV

The joy that surged throughwas overwhelming when my brother finally lifted the ban he had imposed on me.

The

of liberation that envelopedwhen my brother finally lifted the ban was nothing short

of euphoric. It felt like the shackles restraininghad been shattered, grantingthe freedom to navigate the

territories of our pack once more.

Rex's request for assistance in assessing the progress of our pack members in Moon Shadel resonated deeply

with me. It wasn’t just a task; it was an olive branch extended toward

reconciliation. Eagerly, | embraced the opportunity, fueled by the hope that this venture could bridge the chasm

that had developed between us.

The prospect of seeing Carlyle again brought a mix of emotions-excitement, apprehension, and a tinge of

nostalgia.

Hearing that Donnie has left for Moon Shade, | felt angry and jealous at the stime. How could it be her?

“This time, I'll make sure she hears from me.”
