Annoyed, I hissed, “Get out of here!”

Startled, the bodyguard nodded frantically and vanished from my view in an instant.

Caleb’s POV:

As the evening drew in, I made my way back to Andrew’s manor, arms laden with carefully chosen gifts and treats.

From a distance, I noticed the heightened security around the villa where Debra resided.

It crossed my mind that Andrew wasn’t just fortifying the place to keep Debra safe, but also to keep me out.

I bit back my frustration and cursed Andrew silently.

Despite the tightened security, I was confident that they couldn’t keep me at bay with my set of skills.

But I had underestimated Andrew’s preparedness this time.

He had guards stationed at every possible corner.

It seemed like Andrew was genuinely concerned for Debra’s safety, but I couldn’t shake off my irritation.

If he had just dealt with the threat to Debra sooner, none of this would have been necessary.

I created a diversion on the other side of the villa, drawing the bodyguards away.

As their focus shifted, I slipped quietly into Debra’s room.

The entire maneuver took me just a few minutes, during which I couldn’t stop myself from cursing Andrew yet again.

As I pushed open the door, I instantly saw Debra jump, startled by my entrance while she was mid-conversation on the phone.

My heart dropped as I shut the door behind me.

When I was about to ask questions, Debra stood up from the sofa and walked to the window.

Who was on the other end of that call?

Was it Andrew?

Why was she avoiding me?

The image of Debra and Andrew being celebrated at their engagement party invaded my thoughts, igniting a fierce wave of jealousy within me.

She was my Luna.

She belonged to me.

With determination, I strode over and wrapped my arms around her waist from behind, resting my chin on her shoulder.

Breathing in her familiar scent, I finally felt some relief wash over me.

Debra frowned and attempted to shrug me off, but I persisted, lowering my head to plant a trail of soft ki*ses down her neck.

The moment my lips touched her skin, Debra’s breathing quickened.

She muttered a few hurried words into the phone and abruptly ended the call.

Once the phone was away, she shoved me back, her voice low and tense.

“Caleb, you’re being completely unreasonable!”

My expression soured, and my feelings were a tangled mess.

She was upset with me simply because I had interrupted her chat with Andrew.
