The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1731

“Caleb, I know you’re worried about me and want to take revenge for what happened.

I’m beyond grateful for all that you do for me!”

Caleb’s face softened a bit on hearing the sincere affection in my tone.

The atmosphere around us improved, though a hint of tension still Lingered.

Noticing his frown starting to relax, I continued, “Caleb, this is the witch clan’s territory.

It’s not wise to confront them head-on here.

”

Caleb snorted coldly.

“Don’t worry about it.

I can handle this.

I won’t put you in danger.

Unlike Andrew, I always put your safety first.

”

The corner of my mouth twitch as he mentioned Andrew again.

I held his gaze for a moment, then said seriously, “It’s not myself I’m worried about.

I just don’t want you and the entire Thorn Edge Pack to be dragged into this.

”

Caleb’s eyes softened further, and he asked, a hint of satisfaction in his voice, “Are you worried about me? You worry about me because you love me, right?”

I pursed my lips, unsure of how to respond.

I simply didn’t want to complicate things further by asking for Caleb’s help.

Caleb mistook my silence for shyness and stated with unwavering conviction, “It must be true.

You still love me.

”

My ears burned, and inwardly, I cursed, “Narcissist!”

Lost in my thoughts, I was jolted when Caleb placed his hands on my shoulders, forcing me to meet his gaze.

With a gentle smile, he reassured, “Don’t fret, Debra.

I can protect both you and myself.

”

Running a hand over my forehead, I felt a surge of helplessness.

It seemed my words fell on deaf ears.

I’d let him do whatever he wanted.

I shrugged off his touch and lay down on the bed.

“I just want to sleep now,” I muttered into the pillow, my voice muffled.

Andrew’s POV:

After I left Debra’s room, a somber cloud has hovered over me.

When I saw the challenging look in Caleb’s eyes, I admitted that I was unhappy.

The prospect of Debra returning to the Thorn Edge Pack, continuing in her role as Caleb’s Luna, left me profoundly disappointed, struggling to rein in my emotions.

However, Debra and I were not a real couple.

I had no right to challenge Caleb, and I harbored no desire to ensnare Debra in a feud between us.

With a silent sigh, I hastened to the crime scene, determined to press on with the investigation.

As I passed a guest room, murmurs reached my ears, penetrating the silence.
