The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1248

Caleb’s brow furrowed in confusion.

“How did she find us here?”

I answered in a strained voice, “Riley’s gone from the car.

She must have led Gale to us.

”

Caleb paused, then let out a soft curse.

“Damn, it was her! We let our guard down!”

My spirits sank.

Indeed, we were foolish to trust Riley so readily.

We never even thought it could have been a trap from the beginning.

The way Riley was found, seemingly in distress on the route to the Thorn Edge Pack, and her injuries not being lethal-it all seemed too orchestrated.

Such a string of coincidences couldn’t be mere chance.

Perhaps, this was a trap designed to catch us from the beginning.

“Debra, why don’t you come out and reconnect with an old friend?”

Gale called out once more, her voice steady yet menacing.

“I’ve been looking forward to seeing you.

”

Debra’s POV:

Both Caleb and I sensed a cold dread settling over us.

We shared a look and a profound sense of gravity between us.

Thump !

Our hearts raced, pounding loudly, as anxiety surged.

Caleb’s expression was somber.

He took my hand firmly, his tone earnest.

“

Love, please stay in the car.

Being the supreme witch, Gale poses a significant threat, especially to you.

I should confront her alone.

”

I held onto Caleb’s hand, shaking my head in refusal.

“No.

Gale is aware of my presence.

Avoiding her won’t spare us from a confrontation, There’s no fleeing this.

”

“But…”

Caleb started, wanting to protest.

I interjected with calm resolve, “Let’s face this together.

If we must fight, we’ll do it side by side.

”

After a brief pause, Caleb agreed reluctantly.

He advised, “Stay by my side at all times, don’t wander off, and don’t give Gale any opportunity to take advantage, got it?”

I nodded in agreement and said, “Understood.

”

We got out of the car, feeling heavy-hearted.

In the moonlight, I saw Gale standing tall, backed by a group of witches and werewolves.

A smug grin spread across her face like she was sure of victory.

I chewed on my lip, feeling my breath coming faster.
