Yet Caleb fought relentlessly, howling in agony, âDebra! You canât be so cruel!â
He attempted to break free and reach me but was firmly restrained by Carlos.
Sensing the urgency, other pack members swiftly came to assist in subduing Caleb.
He was forcefully dragged away.
I let out a sigh of relief.
As I watched Calebâs figure fade away, I whispered quietly, âGoodbye, my love.
â
However, Gale had no intention of letting Caleb go so easily.
She laughed wildly as she exclaimed, âCaleb, Debra is pregnant with your baby.
Are you truly intending to walk away and leave them both behind?â
Calebâs POV:
The world stopped.
Debra was pregnant?
The news slammed into me like a lightning strike, leaving my mind reeling.
Carlos paled beside me.
We both stared at Debra, trapped in the fire.
Shock contorted her features, laced with a sliver of panic.
Her hand instinctively went to her stomach, confirming Galeâs words.
Debra was pregnant.
And she knew it.
My body convulsed with a violent tremor.
Debraâs health had already been fragile before getting trapped.
And with the fire eating at her, the exertion of her magic, and pregnancy to boost.
.
The harm she was enduring must be unbearable.
âLet me go!â
The cry erupted from me.
Nothing else mattered at this moment; all I craved was to reach my beloved Debra.
How could I bear it? Debra was pregnant and alone, facing death.
It was all my fault.
Iâd been too preoccupied with the affairs of the Thorn Edge Pack.
I neglected her when I shouldâve been attentive.
If Iâd been a little more caring, a little more insistence, Debra wouldnât be suffering.
It was a failure on my side; I failed to protect my love.
Galeâs shrill laughter pierced the air.
âAs supreme witch, Debraâs pregnancy was clear to me with a glance.
Funny, isnât it, Caleb? I knew while you, her husband, was clueless.
â
âShut up!â Debraâs weak shout cut through Galeâs gloating.
