He didn't have her contact information, and their few encounters over the past nine years had been brief and strained.

As they drove back to the pack's territory, Alpha Damien glanced at his son, curious about his thoughts on the day's events. "What do you think?" he asked, his eyes on his son.Caleb turned to him, tilting his head in thought. "Think about what?""About everything," Alpha Damien clarified. "Meeting your grandfather, your sister, and your mother." He noticed Caleb's face light up with a smile at the mention of his mother."I think it's cool to have more family," Caleb said, grinning. "I love Mum, especially. She seems kind and very emotional. I've never seen anyone cry as much as she did.""She cried because she thought you were gone," Alpha Damien explained gently. "And seeing you for the first time was overwhelming for her."Caleb nodded thoughtfully. "You're right, Dad.""And what about your sister, Kayla?

Chris's burn marks were healing, and his breathing had become less labored compared to the first days after the incident.He reached out, gently placing his hand over Chris's. “Hey friend," he began, his voice barely above a whisper, "I took Caleb to meet Stephanie today." He paused, searching for any sign of recognition on his face. "He also met his sister, Kayla."Damien chuckled softly, amusement and worry in his tone. "Kayla... she's got this fire in her, you know? Reminds me a lot of myself. I think she might hate me, though," he admitted, a rueful smile tugging at his lips. "But I plan to change that. Somehow."He sighed, feeling a bit emotional. "I miss you, Chris. There's so much happening, and I
