The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate

This thought helped me calm down considerably.

Then, I turned to Andrew and asked, “Are you truly prepared to marry Shirley just to ensure Abby’s safety? Once you are married, the witch clan will see you as husband and wife.

”

Andrew nodded, his expression tinged with regret.

“It wasn’t clear to me until today how severely the fire in the study injured Shirley.

I was responsible for that fire.

Now that she’s come to me, asking me to take responsibility, I can’t avoid it.

”

Andrew apologized to me again.

“I’m sorry.

This is all my fault.

I need to face the consequences.

”

I sighed, unsure of what to say.

Shirley’s POV:

After Debra and the others left, my mother barged into my room.

Before I could react, she tore off the gauze covering my head and face and slapped me twice.

I instinctively covered the unharmed side of my face, unsure how to respond.

I wasn’t disfigured, not really.

The burns from the fire were minor and had already healed, leaving only a faint pink scar.

It was all part of my plan to make Andrew feel guilt and agree to marry me.

It seemed my act had worked, but my mother’s anger confused me.

She glared at me, her voice sharp.

“What were you thinking, involving that child of Debra’s? First, you harmed yourself, and now you’ve put an innocent child at risk.

Do you even realize who the child is? Her father is Caleb, the Alpha of the Thorn Edge Pack!”

“Caleb?” I was stunned, momentarily forgetting the pain in my cheek.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

So, the man beside Debra was Caleb, the Alpha of Thorn Edge Pack.

My mother’s tone turned scornful.

“You have some nerve, trying to kidnap his daughter.

Do you understand the consequences? This could bring disaster upon our entire clan!”

I was taken aback by the fury in my mother’s eyes, but I stood my ground stubbornly.

“I didn’t know that Debra’s child had any connection to Caleb.

Had I known Debra’s Caleb’s Luna and wouldn’t really marry Andrew, I would have informed Caleb and let him take her away.

None of this would have happened.

”

My mother trembled with anger, pointing accusingly at me.

“How dare you say that? Do you honestly believe what you did was right?”

“And what about you?” I shot back, unable to hold back my frustration.

“You know how much I love Andrew, yet you never consider my feelings.

I had to take matters into my own hands.

”

Her gaze turned cold, as if I were a stranger.

“Is this the despicable, shameless path you’ve chosen to pursue your so-called happiness? You’re not worthy of being my daughter, let alone the future leader of our witch clan!”

Her words struck deep, and fear coursed through me.

I immediately apologized.

“Mom, I know I was wrong.

If you’re unhappy with what I’ve done, I’ll return the child to Debra right away.

”

With that, I hurriedly left the room.

I knew my own shortcomings.

I was quick to anger, and not particularly clever.

That was why I always listened to my mother and Addy.

As for Andrew, I admired his ability and believed he was capable of leading our entire witch clan.

I loved him and would make him my future husband.

Only by securing him could I guarantee my position as the future leader of the witch clan.

I knew I couldn’t let my mother down now.

If she decided not to pass the throne to me, everything would be over.
