The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate -
Chapter 1810
Caleb shared, “The moment Andrew knocked on your door, I knew it was his plot.
I didn’t want to flee.
Since Andrew was keen on revealing my presence, I decided to not hide anymore.
We are, after all, a couple.
We should stand together openly.
”
I understood where he was coming from, but still, I couldn’t help thinking he was being reckless, especially considering his injuries.
He had to be more cautious, especially here in the witch clan’s territory, not our home at the Thorn Edge Pack.
Caleb continued, “As for my injuries, those were mostly accidents.
The punch Andrew landed on my shoulder? I let him do that.
”
It confirmed my suspicions about Andrew’s honesty.
I looked at Caleb helplessly.
“I just couldn’t stand seeing you so close to another man.
I wanted you to witness Andrew’s animosity towards me firsthand,” Caleb declared confidently, as if he had made no mistake.
Compelled by confusion, I asked, “So, did you also pretend to faint?”
“No,” Caleb replied, a sheepish smile spreading across his face.
“I was fighting off dozens of Andrew’s bodyguards and Andrew himself.
He’s a formidable opponent.
I was utterly drained, so I fainted.
You were there, you saw how I couldn’t even stand, right?”
Debra’s POV:
I was both angry and speechless.
Thankfully, Caleb wasn’t badly hurt.
I never imagined Andrew would make him feel so threatened that he’d resort to such harmful tactics at the expense of his health.
I was at a loss how to handle Caleb when he acted this way.
All I could do was caution him, “Please, no matter what happens, don’t ever do something so risky again, okay?”
Caleb took my hand, smiled, and replied, “I won’t, unless other men try to take you away from me.

I was at a loss for words.
Once Caleb opened up about everything, the tension between us_ eased significantly.
However, seeing that I wasn’t mad, he acted pitifully and said, “I exerted myself too much earlier, and now my muscles are aching all over.
Could you give me a massage?”
Although I wasn’t mad, his earlier actions had frightened me, so I pushed him away and replied, “You brought this on yourself.
Deal with it.
I’m not here to pamper you.
”
Caleb expressed his displeasure and said, “I’m a patient now.
As my Luna, shouldn’t you be taking care of me? What else could you possibly do? Would you rather return to the manor and help Andrew entertain those cursed members of the witch clan nobility?”
His expression darkened as he talked.
I laughed, raised my eyebrows, and asked, “Why does this bother you so much? I’m just pretending to be his fiancee.
Even if we dine together, it’s just small talk.
There’s no need for any close contact.
”
Caleb retorted, “I can’t allow that.
When you meet others with your partner, it’s a public statement that your relationship is solid and serious.
I won’t let you do that with another man, even if it’s just for show.
”
In an attempt to discourage Andrew, Caleb even considered matchmaking for him.
“The maid at the hospital earlier seems perfect.
She’s gentle and compliant, just right for Andrew.
Maybe you could introduce them to each other.
”
I reminded him, “You should rest and not worry so much.
Nora is my friend, not Andrew’s maid.
”
Caleb looked surprised.
“Your friend?”
I nodded earnestly and said, “Yes, she’s a good friend of mine.
”
After hearing my words, Caleb decided against introducing Nora to Andrew.
In the recent days, aside from my visits to the manor to see Abby, I had been staying with Caleb at the hospital.
Our bond was growing stronger.
About a week later, Caleb had nearly recovered from his injuries.
The doctor confirmed he was ready to be discharged from the hospital.
Feeling a wave of relief, I accompanied him back to the house he was renting.
As we were about to leave, Caleb suddenly took my hand.
Surprised, I asked, “What’s the matter? Did you forget something?”
“Can you stay with me tonight?” he asked, locking eyes with me.
His question made me blush, and I responded shyly, “What are you talking about?”
Caleb grabbed me forcefully and said with a look of displeasure, “You are my Luna.
Shouldn’t you be by my side?”
I hesitated for a moment, my thoughts turning to Abby.
I had been occupied with Caleb’s discharge today and hadn’t visited Abby.
Feeling uneasy, I replied, “Not now…”
“Why?” Caleb asked, his brow furrowed.
I was unsure how to explain the situation with Abby to Caleb, so I avoided the truth.
“I have something else to do.
”
To prevent Caleb from probing further, I stood on my toes and ki*sed him on the cheek.
Then, I assured him, “I’ll come back to spend time with you later, okay?”
Caleb seemed content with that.
He ki*sed me back passionately, almost as if he were reprimanding me.
He held the ki*s until I nearly ran out of air.
