All Chapters of Stand Back, Alpha: Our Son Is Gone : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Kaida PovSunlight pierced through the window into the room. It covered every part of the room and showcased everything clearly, including the sweater on the wardrobe.It’s been 30 minutes since I woke up, but I couldn’t stop staring at the sweater.Just hours ago, I left this room. I bade goodbye to the life here. I thought I was leaving for good and would never see them again.But—Look who is back again…The weak woman who burdens people with her weakness.Mockery flashed in my eyes.A tear slid down the corner of my eye. My heart ached so much.I feel ashamed of myself. I had fought for an opportunity and even when I was warned, I thought I could handle it.I didn’t want to burden anyone… I left because I didn’t want to be tied to the heart of someone again. But—My body trembled. I clenched my fist as memories flashed past my mind.It was the image of Kabir fighting the lions. He had almost lost his life there.What would I do if that other man hadn’t appeared at the scene?Just

Kaida PovSilence.Our eyes locked in a hot stare.I couldn’t speak. I didn’t even know what response to give.His powerful voice still echoed in my head. He had said he wanted to tie me down.He blamed himself…I was speechless. I hate being tied down. I wasn’t a prisoner, but this time, I wasn’t even angry.Instead, my heart softened.I swallowed.“I— You—”“You don’t need to apologize again and again.”I raised my head. I gaped at the face already so close to me.I scrambled back unconsciously, but Kabir pressed on.My heart beat faster.He came closer… and closer. Until he was on the bed.I held my breath.His face moved closer to me. His breath hit my face.His pinewood scent invaded my nose. I inhaled it unknowingly.The room dropped into a silence I couldn’t explain. I tried to continue moving back, but his eyes pinned me down.I looked into his eyes. Those eyes…Dark. Dangerous. Red. But… soft.In those eyes, only my trembling image could be seen.It scared me.I heard the lou

Kaida Pov I didn’t know what to say. This wasn’t what I was expecting. Though this wasn’t the first time he had told me this. The first time, he had also proposed, but this time, his tone was soft. I swallowed.When I buried Leo and signed the divorce papers, I aimed to go back to my childhood pack. The place where my parents had grown up before we moved to the Silver Crest Pack.But now— What do I truly want? Where exactly can I go?I won’t forget that Kabir had warned me that my childhood pack was gone and had been replaced. But I still wanted to try things out. Now, things had come to this. Would I continue being stubborn? Causing trouble for them? My heart clenched.I looked up. Kabir was waiting for a response. His eyes didn’t move from me. It was as if he wouldn’t leave until he heard an answer that satisfied him. I pursed my lips. My head lowered as I thought deeply about what he had said. The northern pack was still rebuilding. I know Kabir didn't need me to help

Kaida Pov The room became silent after Hannah’s shocked question. Everyone turned to look at her, including me. What does she mean by that? I shifted my gaze to the two men standing by the door. One of them was the familiar Benson, Kabir’s Beta. And beside him stood a young man with a calm and steady demeanor. He silently looked at Hannah. He didn’t even flinch at her words. His hands were behind his back, and his shoulders were firm. He looked… strict. As if he felt my curious gaze, he threw me a quick glance, then calmly returned his attention to— Wait. I followed the direction of his gaze and realized he wasn’t even looking at Hannah. His gaze had been on Kabir the whole time. I frowned, but I didn’t find it odd, so I turned back to Hannah, who looked strange. She glared at Kabir in dissatisfaction and pointed at me. “This is the real punishment, right?!” she gritted. “All that punishment of grounding her was bullshit! The real punishment is making her train under that w

Kaida PovDays passed so fast. Two weeks have gone by, and now, my injuries have healed.After some nourishment from Benson and Hannah, who hadn’t stopped grumbling about how heartless her son was— I felt a tiny connection with my wolf.Though it wasn’t anything much, it was better than nothing, and this gave me so much hope.Today was the day I would start the training, just like Kabir had suggested.I woke up this morning to see my training wear laid properly on my bed.Standing in front of the mirror, a different glow, which I hadn’t had in a long time, could be seen on my face. Though not obvious, I felt a bit refreshed.But—My fingers tightened slightly on the cloth.A faint uneasiness crept into my chest.This was a fresh start… one that wouldn’t let go of the memories, but would live with them and get used to the emptiness.***Some minutes later, I was downstairs.It was still early in the morning, and I didn’t meet many people on the way, which I was glad for.Since I came h
