The silence between us was heavy, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere.
Finally, I couldnt take it anymore. I opened my eyes and sighed.
I need some sleep. Please go.
Last night had been so intense that I hadnt rested at all, and now I was truly exhausted.
Caleb didnt move. His lips twitched as if he wanted to speak, but he stayed silent.
I turned away, choosing to ignore him.
Then, without warning, Caleb stood up from the sofa. He lifted the quilt, slid in beside me, and wrapped his arms around me.
He pressed his face into my shoulder and apologized. Im sorry. I sent someone to kill them. It was extreme, I know. But I was so furious when I saw you drugged and almost taken advantage of. I lost control.
I lay still, not replying, pretending to be asleep.
His breath grew heavier. After a moment, he added. They deserved it. I dont regret it, but if you cant accept this kind of revenge, Ill handle things differently next time.
I opened my eyes and shook my head. Im not blaming you.
I had already figured Caleb was behind it.
I wasnt one to show mercy. They tried to hurt me. They deserved more than death.
Still, the way they died was disgusting, and thinking about it made me feel sick.

Calebs worry deepened. Then why are you so upset? Is there something else bothering you?
I sighed, my voice tinged with frustration. This happened in Andrews manor. He could get involved. Hes been good to me. I dont want to cause him any trouble.
Debras POV:
Are you worried about Andrew?
Calebs voice held a tinge of jealousy that was impossible to miss.
His expression hardened instantly.
I sighed, defeated. I just dont want my problems to affect him.
Caleb scoffed. If Andrew cant handle it, then he shouldnt be the deputy clan leader. A weakling like him cant take care of you anyway.
With that, he wrapped his arms around my body, his warmth enveloping me.
Debra, Andrew doesnt deserve you. Come back to the Thorn Edge Pack with me. Ill look after you like before.
