It was a bit awkward at the dinner table this night. A weeping son, and angry father and a recently found but distanced mate was not something that was easy on Caleb. In retrospect, even it was tougher on Ashton. He never felt so lost in his life. He sat there with the people he loved and cherished the most, and yet these people seemed so different to him.
Eight years is a long time and Ashton needed more than just a day to adapt to the chnages around him. To learn and get accustomed to what was different. To let go of the past that was not his part of his life anymore. It wasn't easy for him, to push away Caleb like he did earlier, but he wanted to reconnect with his mate properly before something happened between them.
