The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate

Andrew’s expression darkened at our tender exchange, yet he showed no signs of leaving.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, I shot Caleb a sharp look and whispered, “Stop it.

”

Rather than heeding my request, Caleb raised his voice and responded playfully, “Honey, what was that? I couldn’t catch it.

Could you speak up?”

My cheeks reddened instantly, and I wished I could just disappear.

Andrew’s face grew even more troubled, and I could see the veins on his forehead standing out.

Caleb then turned to Andrew and said politely, “I apologize.

My Luna and I need some privacy.

Would you mind giving us a moment alone?”

Andrew, typically composed and courteous, looked visibly shaken for a moment but quickly regained his composure.

“I regret the intrusion, but I need a moment to speak with Debra.

”

With that, he looked at me earnestly and asked, “Could we talk outside for a bit?”noveldrama

Looking at Andrew’s pleading eyes, I couldn’t help but feel sympathy for him.

After a moment’s hesitation, I gave him a nod.

Relieved, Andrew exhaled deeply, turned, and walked away with a smile.

As I got up to leave, I realized Caleb was gripping my hand firmly, showing no signs of letting go.

Feeling somewhat powerless, I shook his head slightly and whispered reassuringly, “I’ll just be right outside the door.

I’ll return shortly.

”

Despite my words, Caleb clung to my hand.

“Why would Andrew need to keep secrets from me and share them with you alone?”

I laughed gently, finding his question slightly amusing.

“He hasn’t shared anything yet.

How would I

know? But don’t worry, I’ll step outside and see what’s going on.

”

As I talked, I couldn’t shake off the feeling that Caleb’s expression held a trace of guilt, though I wasn’t sure if it was just my imagination.

Debra’s POV:

Confusion clouded my mind.

Was Caleb harboring some fear?

Before I had the chance to voice my concern, Caleb grasped my hand, his eyes pleading.

“Can you stay? I need you here with me.

”

His vulnerability softened my resolve momentarily, yet my commitment to Andrew held firm.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be back before you know it.

And I’ll share everything Andrew tells me, okay?”

“Really?” Skepticism tinged Caleb’s voice.

Meeting his gaze, I affirmed, “Yes.

There are no secrets between us.

”

With a reluctant nod, Caleb released my hand.

After I tucked Caleb in, I turned around and left.
