After I left Alpha father and son went crazy with regret

Chapter 123

Cole turned his head and met the sharp yet familiar gaze of Alpha Dalton.

A slight smirk tugged at Cole's lips. “Dalton. It's been a while."

Dalton crossed his arms, regarding him with curiosity. "What are you doing in Silvermoon?"

Cole's expression didn't shift. "Business."

Dalton's brow furrowed slightly. He knew Cole well enough to understand that was only half the truth. Once, long

ago, they had been part of the sAlpha training program alongside Arnold and Charles. Arnold had been the

most disciplined among them, the one who followed every expectation with unwavering precision.

And Cole?

Cole had been the most unpredictable.

His origins were steeped in mystery, whispers of a powerful but elusive family trailing behind him. After their

graduation, he had disappeared from the structured world of the Alphas, reappearing sporadically in different

territories, seemingly operating on his own agenda.

Dalton narrowed his eyes. "So you just happened to show up in tfor the festival?"

Cole shrugged. "Sas you."

Dalton let out a small chuckle, though there was something uneasy in the way his eyes flickered to a spot behind

them.

Cole followed his gaze.

Linda.

She was standing near a small restaurant, Alex beside her, Arnold just a short distance away. But Dalton wasn't

looking at Arnold. His focus entirely on Linda.

Was

Cole's expression didn't change, but he understood immediately.

Dalton had feelings for her.

It was subtle, but it was there-the tension in his shoulders, the way his gaze softened when he looked at her, the

flicker of hesitation in his expression.

Dalton turned back toward Cole and asked, "You and Arnold were close once. So it's true? He has a child?"

Cole didn't answer immediately. Instead, he studied Dalton for a moment before offering a slow, knowing smile.

"If you're so interested," he said lightly, "maybe you should ask him yourself."

Dalton frowned but didn't push. He knew Cole well enough to understand that pressing wouldn't get him

anywhere.

Still, the thought gnawed at him.

If Alex really was Arnold's son... then what would that mean for Linda?

If Arnold's past cback to entangle him, if he and his supposed Luna still had unfinished ties because of the

child, then wouldn't Linda only end up suffering?

Dalton exhaled, his gaze darkening slightly.

Not long after, Cole made an excuse to leave, taking Abby with him.

Dalton, however, took a different path.

Instead of leaving, he made his way toward the restaurant where Linda and Alex

were.

By coincidence, Arnold had stepped away at that moment, leaving Linda alone with Alex.

Dalton approached, his usual composed demeanor slipping slightly as he greeted her. "Linda."

She turned, surprise flickering across her face before she smiled politely. "Dalton. | didn't expect to see you

here."

Dalton glanced down at Alex, who was excitedly tugging at Linda's sleeve.

"Aunt Linda, feedsdessert!" the boy insisted, his voice light and cheerful. Dalton hesitated, his gaze

sharpening slightly.

He watched as Linda, without missing a beat, picked up a spoon and gently fed Alex a bite of the sweet pastry

on the

table.

His chest tightened.

She was kind. Too kind.

Alex was... clingy. A little too nice to him. Dalton couldn't help but think, Does she really have to take care of

someone else's child like this?

Linda deserved more.

At that moment, Alex suddenly paused. His spoon hovered midair, his small face turning toward the glass

window.

His eyes widened slightly.

"Alex?" Linda called out softly.

He didn't respond immediately, his gaze scanning the street outside.

Linda followed his line of sight.

She couldn't see anyone familiar, but she knew exactly what he had thought he

saw.

Nora.

A faint glimmer passed through her eyes before she gently scooped another bite

of dessert.

"Try this," she said smoothly, bringing his focus back to her. "It's delicious."

Alex hesitated for only a moment before nodding, "Mmm."

Still, even as he took the bite, his small fingers tightened around the edge of the table.

"Aunt Linda..." He glanced toward the window one last tbefore murmuring, "I think I just saw Mommy."

Linda smiled, her expression gentle but detached. "There are so many people here, Alex. Maybe you just mistook
