I closed my eyes in despair, waiting for my impending doom.
“Take her away!” Leonel barked.
Then his men swarmed toward me, ready to grab me and take me away. Just then, a familiar voice sounded. “Who said you could take her away?”
Debra’s POV:
I cautiously opened my eyes and saw the source of the voice. It was none other than Caleb, the father of my child, and he was walking toward us unhurriedly.
He was wearing a black shirt, his sleeves casually rolled up, revealing his chiseled arms. His blond hair dazzled underneath the bar’s bright lights.
My heart raced in my chest. That strong sense of attraction stirred inside of me again.
“It’s him!” Ivy shouted excitedly. “I told you! Caleb is your mate, I swear!”
I didn’t deny it, nor did I say anything really. I just fixed my eyes on him.
He was my Last hope.
He was Like my knight in shining armor, swooping in to save me at the last minute. But my hopes were dashed as soon as he walked right past me. He didn’t even bother to look at me. Instead, he went straight to Leonel.
“This is my territory. No one can take her away,” he warned Leonel coldly.
Leonel seemed to be afraid of Caleb. He said apologetically, “I’m sorry we trespassed into your territory, but our Alpha ordered us to arrest this traitor. Once we have her, we’ll compensate you for the damages to your bar—”
“Get out. Now!” Caleb leered at him. “I’m not interested in your or your Alpha’s business, but I hate being disturbed when I’m drinking.” Leonel faltered and glanced at me, but he still refused to give up.
Suddenly, Caleb snapped his fingers. Countless werewolves in black suits came out of nowhere and surrounded Leonel and his men. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
“I don’t give a damn about whichever pack she’s from. You’re all in my territory now, so you have to obey my rules.” Caleb’s tone was calm but his aura was intimidating. “I have the final say here.”
Leonel’s expression darkened. “And what if she leaves your territory?” “Then it’ll be up to you.” Caleb didn’t seem to give a damn.
Leonel also knew that it was unwise to fight against Caleb head-on here, so he had no choice but to leave with his men dejectedly.
As soon as they were gone, Caleb Looked like he was going to leave. It was as though he didn’t know I existed.
“Caleb, wait!” I struggled to stand up.
“Oh, it’s you.” He looked down at me. Only then did he seem to recognize me.
Then, he seemed to remember something and his tone became harsh and contemptuous. “What? Did you come here to trick another guy into sleeping with you?”
