“It’s not safe to discuss it over the phone.

Come to the hotel and meet me,” Caleb responded, his tone flat.

I ended the call and rushed over, my anxiety pushing me to the brink

At one point, I almost ran a red light out of sheer anxiety.

I was terrified that Caleb would have taken my daughter away.

I

sprinted most of the way to the hotel room, my fear driving me forward.

As I opened the door, I caught sight of Caleb sitting on the edge of the bed.

When he saw me, he pressed his index finger to his lips, silently urging me to be quiet.

“Lower your voice, Debra,” he whispered.

I turned around and saw Elena fast asleep in the bed, surrounded by various toys and fairy tale books scattered about.

“What’s going on?” I asked in a hushed tone.

“I managed to put her to sleep,” he said, his voice filled with pride.

Was that what I asked about?

Suppressing my anger, I pulled him out of the room and asked coldly,

“Why didn’t you bring her home?”

Debra’s POV:

Caleb stared at me silently, his lips curving in a smile.

“Answer me quickly!” I demanded harshly.

Caleb’s smile fled as he explained hastily, “Don’t be angry.

I just want you to know how it feels when you’ve been denied access to your daughter.

Consider this as your punishment for lying to me before.

I didn’t mean anything else by it.

“You jerk!”

I was so furious that my hands and feet trembled.

I could feel my teeth grinding together as I shot death glares at him.

I thought he was going to take Elena away and separate her from me forever.

That was what I feared the most.

Caleb smartly changed the topic.

“Did Zoe make things difficult for you after you went to the police station?”

I was still upset with him, so much so that I didn’t want to explain anything to him.

I grunted and answered coldly, “I have nothing to tell you.

Hearing that, Caleb said dejectedly, “Don’t misunderstand me, Debra.

I just want you and our daughter to rely on me.

I don’t want you to keep secrets from me, Like you’re doing right now.

Anyway, I will take you back to the Thorn Edge pack as soon as possible and make up for my mistakes.

Instead of pacifying me, Caleb’s words only served to make me angrier
