The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1771

Debra’s POV:

After hearing Nora’s words, my face fell.

But I wasn’t worried about my own safety.

What Veronica had done was monstrous, and anger flared within me.

A large-scale massacre of mixed-blood witches…

The noble and elegant leader of the witch clan was responsible for such a horrific act?

Nora studied my reaction closely.

My gradually paling face must have unsettled her.

In a hushed, almost pleading tone, Nora grasped my hand and said, “Don’t breathe a word of the massacre to anyone.

It’s a taboo subject within the clan.

It will only bring trouble.

”

Taking a deep breath, I quelled my anger.

“Don’t worry,” I assured her with a nod.

“I won’t cause problems.

I’ll be careful.

”

Relief washed over Nora’s face as she escorted me out.

After parting ways with Nora, I returned to my room.

The moment I pushed open the door, I saw Caleb sprawled on the sofa, a scowl etched on his face, as if he owned the place.

His lips curled into a sneer.

“Welcome back, future wife of the deputy leader.

I see you’ve enjoyed the dinner party.

Otherwise you wouldn’t be here so late.

”

My body and spirit were exhausted, and Nora’s revelation left a bitter taste in my mouth.

I wasn’t in the mood for Caleb’s antics.

In a curt tone, I reminded him, “Behave.

”

“But I am behaving,” Caleb countered, feigning innocence.

My gaze held his steadily.

“You know the dinner party never happened.

You also know Andrew’s injured and in the hospital.

”

A smug smile spread across Caleb’s face at my bluntness.

“You see, you do understand me.

No wonder you’re my Luna, my love.

”

His sweet words disgusted me.

“Then why are you trying to rile me up?”

Sensing my rising irritation, Caleb approached and wrapped his arms around me.

“I just wanted to see if

you’d confide in me,” he explained.

A familiar yet foreign scent enveloped me, sending a wave of awkwardness through me.

I shoved him away with a sigh.

“Grow up.

This is childish.

”

“I’m only childish with you, my love,” he replied confidently.

I let out a helpless sigh.

“Anything important you need to tell me? If no, I’m heading for a shower and some rest.

”

Caleb seemed to register my exhaustion.

A hint of apology flickered in his eyes.

“Even your eyes look tired.

Go get cleaned up.

I laid out your pajamas in the bathroom.

”

I walked past him and made a beeline for the bathroom.

True to his word, my pajamas were neatly folded and waiting, along with a fresh tube of toothpaste on my toothbrush.
