Seeing us, he looked surprised and asked, “Debra, Caleb, what brings you here at this late hour? Is everything okay?”

Beneath the warm yellow light, his white hair was distinctly visible.
His face, marked by fatigue from working Late, showed signs of aging, and I felt a surge of guilt overwhelm me.
Yet, this did not sway my determination.

It was my fault for not keeping my promise. If Caleb and I survived the ordeal with the Thorn Edge Pack, I promised myself I would come back and apologize to my father. But for now, our focus had to be on saving the Thorn Edge Pack.
With a heavy heart, I moved closer to my father and disclosed everything. “Today, Gale and his allies, a group of half-breed witches and the Xeric Pack’s army, launched an attack on the Thorn Edge Pack. They’ve seized part of the pack’s territory and are now alarmingly close to their heart. Caleb’s father was assaulted by a confidant under mind control and remains unconscious. Because of this, Caleb and I need to return and attempt to reverse the situation.”
My father’s face changed from calm to one of shock.
Before he could respond, I continued with profound sadness, “Caleb and I are about to face great danger and we can’t bring our children with us. Please, take care of Elena and Dylan. If we don’t make it back, I hope you won’t tell them the truth.”
After saying this, I lowered my head, readying myself for my father’s reaction.
I was sure he would be upset. I had made a promise to remain here, and yet here I was, ready to risk everything for another pack. It must be challenging for him to understand.
Unexpectedly, after a brief silence, my father signaled his support by clapping his hands and declaring proudly, “Good! That’s my daughter!”
His eyes showed a combination of reluctance and deep thought as he added, “Debra, Caleb has always been there for you, risking everything to keep you safe. He got you to safety when you were threatened. Now that he is the one in need, as my daughter, you are doing the right thing by not backing down.

Shocked, I managed to whisper, “Dad…”
He patted my arm and smiled with assurance. “Don’t worry about the children. I’ll take good care of them. Go and face the challenges ahead!”
“Yes!” As tears of gratitude ran down my cheeks, I hugged my father.
“We will do everything within our power to come back safely.”
He hugged me in return. “The internal matters of the Thorn Edge Pack are not my place to interfere, as I am another pack’s alpha. However, if you find yourselves in a difficult situation, let me know. I will find a way to help.”
I nodded, tears filling my eyes.
My father then looked at both of us and asked, “The journey to the Thorn Edge Pack might be perilous. Do you need me to send some people to escort you?”
Caleb and I both declined, aware of the dangers ahead and not wanting to involve more people.
I said, “We will proceed alone; more people might draw unnecessary attention. If Gale finds out, it could have grave consequences.”
“Alright.” My father accepted our decision reluctantly.
Debra’s POV:
Accompanied by my father, we made it to the gates of the Silver Ridge Pack.
