The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1450

The world froze.

Everyone and everything stopped in their tracks.

Falling leaves hung motionless, and the sailing wind stilled.

Without wasting a beat, I raced to Caleb, pulling him clear of the bullet’s path.

Relief washed over me.

I had saved him.

But my victory was short-lived.

My energy sputtered and died.

Time lurched back into motion.

The bullet thudded into a nearby branch.

The world lurched back to life.

Witches returned to mending the rift, werewolves resumed their fight.

It was a strange, unsettling juxtaposition amidst the chaos.

But I was stranded.

I wouldn’t be able to make it back to my post in time.

Caleb, bewildered, stared at me.

His face was etched with shock.

“Debra, why’d you leave? What about the rift?”

Before I could answer, a scream tore through the air from the witches’ direction.

“Help!”

I whipped around.

As I had feared, the fissure gaped wider than ever.

A sudden power surge caused a horrific suction force.

The witches at the very edge of the formation yelped in terror as the darkness drew them in.

“Help us!”

My pupils contracted.

My drained power screamed at me in protest, but fear propelled me forward.

This was my fault.

I’d bear the responsibility, no matter what.

Frantically, I channeled every last ounce of energy, reaching out to the falling witches.

My grip held, barely.

Just as safety seemed within reach, the pull reversed, grabbing me instead.

“Debra!” Caleb roared, his voice full of urgency as he lunged at me.

The witches, finally reacting, abandoned the rift and grabbed me just as the suction threatened to pull me in completely.

Debra’s POV:

The suction intensified, straining the witches’ grip.

Their faces contorted in exertion, sweat beading on their foreheads.

Mending the rift had already drained them.

They barely had the energy to stand, let alone strain against such overwhelming suction force.

Caleb wasn’t much better.

Blood oozed from his wounds as he clung desperately.

Witnessing their struggle, my heart hammered with panic.

Yet I could think of no solution.

Tears welled up as I choked out, “Please, let go!”
