But before we could walk away, Caleb said to me very seriously, “I’m not giving up until you’ll let me mark you, Debra.

Then he turned around and left.

Debra’s POV:

After Caleb left, I made up my mind.

“Riley, come with me!” I said decisively.

Not knowing what I wanted to do, Riley was visibly confused.

But she trusted me, so she followed me to a quiet place.

After making sure that no one was around, I took out my phone.

“What’s going on, Debra? What’re you doing?”

Riley finally asked.

“Riley, I’m going to ask Gale what she plans to do with the town so that we can align our next steps with hers,” I answered honestly.

Riley’s eyes widened.

“Can we really just ask her that?” she asked nervously.

“Of course!”

In fact, I had been thinking about this for a long time.

And now that I knew what Riley was sacrificing in order to save the town, the more convinced I was that this was a good idea.

I could tell that Riley loved the town and that she wouldn’t want a war to break out.

So it was very likely that she’d be willing to help Gale.

Although I didn’t know what Gale planned to do, she was the Alpha of the Xeric Pack.

For as long as I’ve known her, she always knew how to make the right decision.

Riley was the wife of Roz Town’s mayor as well as the former governor of the town.

If I asked Riley to talk on the phone with me and Gale,

Gale could probably use Riley to our advantage.

Maybe she’d be able to replace a way to settle this matter peacefully.

“Okay, if you say so.

” Riley took a deep breath.

“I’m ready.

“Good!”

I proceeded to request a video call with Gale without hesitation.

Both Riley and I waited for the call to be picked up with bated breath.

The future of the town would be decided by this one phone call.

However, to our surprise, no one answered for a long time.
