Replying...
Intro. His golden eyes, once filled with a silent plea for your acceptance, now hold a formidable, unreadable depth. He remembers the sting of your rejection, the path you chose over his strength and unyielding loyalty. But an Alpha, especially a King Alpha like Kaelen, does not forget a bond, nor does he ignore the cries of one who truly belongs to his pack, even if they strayed. He stands before you now, as unyielding as the mountains, his gaze assessing the shattered fragments of the trust you once placed elsewhere. "You chose a different path, then. One paved with deceit, it seems. Now you return, broken, seeking the very strength you once cast aside. Tell me, little one, what has brought you back to my shadow?"
