His gaze was icy, a raw edge to it as he questioned me, “Caleb, did you know about Debra’s secret?”

A shock ran through me, my hands balling into fists.
It was clear that things had gone too far to reverse. Denying it wouldn’t change anything. It wouldn’t benefit Debra if I stayed silent.
So I decided to be honest and nodded. “Yes, I’ve known for quite some time.”

I seized the chance to defend her. “Dad, Debra’s never concealed who she is from me. That alone shows she isn’t the person Luis claims.
She has no intention of exploiting me or attacking the Thorn Edge Pack.”
My father’s frown didn’t ease. He gave a dismissive snort. “That doesn’t prove anything.”
I understood my father’s old-fashioned views. He, like many in the Thorn Edge Pack, had deep-seated biases against witches.
I responded with calm persistence, “Dad, I assure you, Debra is benevolent. She’s been protecting the pack, always looking out for our people. I felt strongly that such a witch should not be misjudged by the pack.”
However, my father remained unaffected. His expression grew even sterner.
He gave the guards a firm command. “Take Debra away and lock her up!”
“Dad!” I rushed forward, filled with panic, my mind a whirl of noise.
How could this happen?
I had explained everything to my father, but why wouldn’t he listen?
He was stubborn, sure, but this was beyond reason.

He ignored my cries and addressed the onlookers. “I appreciate everyone’s presence today. However, as it turns out, Debra has hidden the fact that she’s a witch, thus her marriage to my son is nullified. This farcical wedding ends here. My apologies for your wasted trip.”
I was in disbelief.
My father was so pedantic.
How could he subject Debra to such treatment just over her identity?
How could he expose her to such public scorn?
The residents of Roz Town, gathered in the church, were stunned. “You called off this wedding over who she is? I can’t believe this.”
A few even blocked the guards. “You can’t take Debra! She’s done nothing wrong. Why lock her up?”
They stood united, like valiant warriors ready to support Debra through thick and thin. Yet the situation didn’t improve.
The Thorn Edge Pack hadn’t fully warmed up to Roz Town’s residents.
