Alpha’s Second Chance Mate (Sidonie & Carlyle)

Chapter 21
SIDONNIE'S POV
Seeing Alpha Carlyle at the restaurant I work, a sinking feeling gripped my chest
as I stared at my worst nightmare showing up before me. It was as if time had
stood still, and the haunting specter of what I'd tried to escape was now
inescapably real. Since I left Moon Shade, I knew a day like this would come
soon but I never expected it to come so fast and not in that type of avenue.
My heartbeat quickened, a surge of anxiety coursing through my veins. The
familiar surroundings felt alien, shadows of the past creeping into my present. I
fought to steady my breath, but the memories flooded back, threatening to
overwhelm me.
I could taste the bitter cocktail of fear and regret, the bitter residue of a chapter I
thought I had closed. The very sight of what I dreaded brought back a cascade of
emotions inadequacy, heartache, and the persistent ache of unresolved pain.
In that moment, my workplace became a battleground of old demons, each
corner echoing with the whispers of a past I wished to forget. The ground
beneath me felt unsteady, and I struggled to maintain composure as the
remnants of my worst nightmare resurfaced, threatening to sweep me off my feet
once again.
If I had a choice, I would have just turned around and left but I had no choice as it
was my duty to serve customers. Any misbehaviour from me could warrant in
losing my job and that's the last thing I need in my life at that point.
Leaving his table with the lady he was with whom I later identified to be the
princess of the Blue Wave Pack, the pack where I work, he called me back to
help him with his handkerchief..
Such a smart move. Alpha Carlyle hates dirt so much. That, I know about him.
Allowing his handkerchief fall was so unusual and I could tell it was a well
calculated move.
It took every strength in me to focus on my work once again since I saw him. Just
when I thought I have pushed thoughts about him to the back of my mind, the
Blue Wave Princess stormed the kitchen.
“Who were those sent to serve my meal?” She asked. The lady's eyes blazed
with a fierce intensity, her nostrils flaring as she surveyed the kitchen with a mix
of disbelief and fury. A growl escaped her lips, her body tensing with an untamed
rage.
About three of us raised our hands, indicating we were the one who served her.
She took a very good look at us and pointed me out. I needed no one to tell me
that I had to

go out to her front.
“A stranger?” She paused, checking me out.
“Who are you? Which pack are you from? How are you related to Alpha Carlyle
of the Moon Shade Pack?” The lady's eyes narrowed, her voice cutting through
the air like a sharp gust of wind. Her questions were delivered with a fierce
intensity. I thought of wh could possibly happen for her to ask me such question,
Politely, I answered her.
“I don't get what you mean, ma'am.”
Instead of asking with manners, she began to display nothing but absolute
stupidity.
“How are you related to Alpha Carlyle?” She repeated her question, growling at
me. At first. I felt intimidated by her, but I had no idea where the sudden anger
came from for me to reply her the way I did. I didn’t let her have her way with
whatever plans she had.
“What's going on here?" Alpha Carlyle showed up with anger exuding his face.
But who cares? He caused it all.
Everything got settled and we had a long day cleaning up.
“Who's miss Sidonnie?” Two fully guarded men barged into our kitchen, the
restaurant's
kitchen.
“I'am.” I raised my hand and before I knew it, I was dragged away harshly like
someone. that was about to be punished.
CARLYLE'S POV
“Raina!” Rex yelled at his sister.
Raina’s words hung in the air, a careless revelation that sent a chill down my
spine. I found myself caught off guard, navigating through a sea of awkward
silence. The restaurant ambiance seemed to dull as her words echoed in my
mind.
“I have nothing to say. But if you really want to know, perhaps you should go ask
the lady he was staring at all day long at the restaurant!” Raina’s bluntness hit
me like an unexpected punch, and I felt the weight of her words settling
uncomfortably.
I cast a glance at Raina, realizing she was young, spoiled, and reckless—a
combination I knew I could never come to terms with. However, her lack of tact
and senselessness caught me by surprise. It was as if she had unknowingly
thrown a grenade into a

peaceful conversation, leaving the aftermath to unfold in the awkward tension
that followed.
Her taunting presence enveloped me as she moved in, palms resting on my
shoulders.
