“Don’t dwell on it for now. Let’s focus on having breakfast,” Caleb reassured me in a comforting tone.
Silence enveloped me, leaving me at a loss for words.
This was no way to comfort someone.
I had the urge to roll my eyes at him, but his persistent gaze prevented me from doing so.
I was momentarily taken aback, and then it dawned on me that I was still clad in the alluring dress from the previous night, with no spare clothes to change into at the moment.
A glimmer appeared in his eyes, radiating a distinct gleam.
Feeling slightly uneasy under his intense gaze, I cleared my throat and asked, “What are you staring at?”
He smiled and said sincerely, “You Look stunning in that dress, but I’d prefer if you saved it exclusively for me in the future.”
Blushing, I turned away and left, feeling a mixture of embarrassment and flattery.
What a narcissistic man, thinking that I should wear it exclusively for him!
Janiya’s POV:
I had done everything I could to catch them at that remote hotel, hoping to prove that it was really Debra and Riley at the bar last night. Unexpectedly, Caleb stood out and defended Debra, even going so far as to claim that they had spent the night together.
It was definitely a lie! It had to be!
But even though I knew it was a lie, I still felt indescribably angry and sad.

Whenever something bad happened to Debra, he’d rush to her side. He was like her knight in shining armor.
Their intimacy made me want to vomit. God, I fucking hate them! If it weren’t for them, things wouldn’t have come to this.
I loved Caleb. But because of him, I crossed the point of no return and my life was turned upside down.
Caleb had asked me to stop and go home.
But how could 17 How could I just stop?
The more I thought about it, the sadder I felt. Finally, I ran out of the hotel in tears.
I used to think that love was a beautiful thing. Now, I knew that it was nothing but a pipe dream, and my fantasy of becoming the Luna of the Thorn Edge Pack was instantly quashed.
Caleb and Debra-they ruined me. And because of that, I would never let them go.
After calming down somewhat, I went back to see Adam.
Adam asked, “Janiya, did you try to catch Riley?”
There was no point in hiding it, so I nodded bluntly.
