The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1824

Where had Abby gone? And Nora? They were gone!

Panic and fear over losing my children nearly drove me mad.

I collapsed to the floor, overwhelmed.

The room had never felt so hollow and silent.

I couldn’t hold back my tears any longer and burst into sobbing.

I didn’t notice Caleb’s arrival until he enveloped me in his arms, his familiar scent slowly grounding me.

Caleb gently wiped my tears and murmured, “Don’t cry.

I’m here for you, always, No matter what, you’re not alone.

”

His words were comforting, yet they didn’t make me better.

I knew I couldn’t linger in my sorrow.

It was crucial to replace Abby and ensure she was safe.

Nora had been Abby’s nanny for a while now.

It was hard to imagine that she could be indifferent towards the girl.

Hurting Abby was something Nora simply wouldn’t do.

I tried to console myself, hoping to ease my own distress.

Caleb enveloped me in a tight embrace, his lips gently brushing my forehead, then my tear-streaked cheeks.

Once I had regained some composure, I stepped back from his embrace, clutching his hand firmly.

“We need to replace the butler and Andrew.

I need to see them now.

”

The moment I mentioned Andrew, a crease of worry formed on Caleb’s forehead.

He fixed his eyes on

mine, his voice filled with concern.

“Tell me everything from the start.

What exactly happened?”

Overwhelmed by sorrow, I struggled to speak.

Abby’s name hovered on the brink of my lips, but I couldn’t push it past the tightness in my throat.

Feeling like an utter failure as a mother, I grappled with the guilt of not knowing who took my child or when it happened.

How could I claim to be Abby’s mother when I had failed so completely to protect her? I felt unworthy of the title.

The mental defenses I had just mustered collapsed, and with them, my body seemed to fold in on itself.

I crumpled, overcome by the burden of my thoughts.

Seeing my state, Caleb realized that now was not the time for questions.

He pulled me close once more and dialed Andrew’s number.

Tears cascaded down my cheeks, blurring my vision.

I couldn’t grasp the words Caleb had uttered over the phone.

After he hung up, Caleb kept stroking my back, trying to help me relax.

His voice, tender and reassuring, whispered in my ear, “It’s okay.

Don’t be afraid.

I’m here for you.

”

But my tears didn’t obey, flowing even more fiercely.

How could everything be okay? Abby was missing.

Our little one was gone!

With each gentle word from Caleb, my guilt deepened.

I shouldn’t have lashed out at him.

I should have brought Abby to the Thorn Edge Pack sooner.

She might have been safe and joyful, growing up in the Thorn Edge Pack.

This disaster was my doing.
