2024-08-25 05:07:38Tabitha's POV
I used to think that Derek's indifference was the most chilling attitude he had towards me.It was only now that I found his affectionate frighten me much more than his direct attacks.I had a suspicion, but I didn't dare to say out loud that I was pregnant."Derek, I won't love you. Never," I said resolutely, trying to maintain my resolve in front of him.Derek, however, didn't care. He simply responded calmly, "Tabitha, there's a long road ahead of us." The inexplicable confidence in his tone sent shivers down my spine.Instead of arguing with him, I chose to curl up obediently. I didn't dare to push him too far.It was totally pointless trying to reason with a madman. I might actually make things worse.All I could do now was to lay low and wait for an opportunity until Dad recovered.I'd try my best to live as long as I could after I gave birth.I closed my eyes. Seeing that, Derek gently tucked me in.He leane

Tabitha's POVMy dreams were always about a kid.There was a time when I dreamed every night of a beautiful field of flowers, and a kid with a garland in his hand was coming toward me.With a smile, he put it on my head.The dream was so real that I could still feel the gentle touch of the garland when I woke up.I stopped frowning. "Thank you, sweetie.""Mommy, pretty." Kyrian was so happy that he kept grinning.Looking at his smile, I felt an inexplicable warmth and familiarity as if he really was my boy.He was just a little boy, yet he was already so caring. I bet plenty of women would fall for him in the future.I gently pecked his cheek while cupping his face and once again sighed silently, wishing he were my kid.I patted his knee to remove some of the weeds and dirt.Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Derek standing far away on the hillside.He didn't come nearer. Maybe he was worried that if he came over, it would

Tabitha's POVI felt a shiver run through my body as I looked at Derek, somewhat puzzled."What do you mean?" I asked, a sense of foreboding welling up inside me.Derek let out a heavy sigh, sounding all serious as he replied, "What happened last night wasn't an accident. Someone pushed Kyrian down a really high staircase."Shocked by the news, I asked, "Who would do such a thing?""Right now, we don't have enough clues to nail it down. From the build, it doesn't seem like an ordinary person, possibly a professional hitman. That's why I need to get Kyrian and Reid to a safe spot."His words sent chills down my spine.I asked tentatively, "Does this have anything to do with Poison and Wolf Shadow?"As a werewolf, I had a natural sensitivity to these hidden forces."I don't think so. Poison and Wolf Shadow is an organization well-versed in the field of medicine. Their method of killing is mostly through drugs, just like with ... Holly. But

Tabitha's POVDad and I left Rose Manor even before dawn. I had no clue where we would be taken.After a long journey, we finally arrived. This place wasn't one of Derek's properties.Instead, it seemed like a chill hideaway tucked away in the city.Obviously, Derek sent us to a place like this to protect us so that we wouldn't be tracked down.The house combined the unique style of Seattle with the beauty of nature and the sophistication of modern architecture.Dad seemed satisfied with it, saying it reminded him of his packhouse back in the Silver Moon Pack.Even though it was way more contemporary, it had a comforting vibe that made us feel at ease.Surprisingly, Dad managed to start walking without the help of a cane.I hurriedly went forward to support him. "Dad, be careful."He smiled with contentment, saying, "Tabitha, I feel so much better.""Well, Dad, no need to rush. Take your time," I comforted him softly, feeling su

Derek's POVWhen I received Joanna's phone call, I was sitting in my office.Even though I hadn't swung by to check on Tabitha during this period, I was well-informed about her situation through various channels.Joanna had no idea what I was planning to do.She probably thought I was just being the perfect ex-mate, silently watching Tabitha from a distance like a guardian angel."Alpha Derek, Ms. Hartley wants to go for a prenatal check-up," Joanna's voice came through the phone.There was a pair of wedding rings on my desk. As I listened, I absentmindedly ran my fingers over the big diamond on one of them."Okay, I'll arrange that," I replied, my tone totally neutral.Joanna sighed in relief upon hearing it, "I knew it! Alpha Derek, you're always looking out for Ms. Hartley. I just don't get why she's so wary of you. She didn't even tell you about her pregnancy!"I smirked, hung up the phone, and put the rings back into the box.Th

Tabitha's POVThe whole phone situation had me super worried, but I never expected that Derek was also blocking my dad from touching a phone every time.After the same conversation happened a few times, Dad definitely sensed something was off.After all, he wasn't born yesterday.I quickly said to him, "Dad, some stuff did happen while you were in a coma. I'll tell you all about it, but it's just not now. When you fully recover, I promise I'll tell you about it bit by bit. "As soon as Dad heard that, he got all fired up, his hands starting to shake. "I knew it! Something's not right. When I came around, your hand was maimed, and you've been giving Derek the cold shoulder. What on earth happened?"Seeing Dad so emotional, I quickly helped him sit down and said, "Dad, look, this is exactly why I didn't tell you. Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that he and I had a fight over some things. Didn't you see him begging me for forgiveness all day? If i

Tabitha's POVI got butterflies in my stomach.The painful memory of losing my child in the hemorrhage came back to me, making it impossible for me to calm down.Even my voice trembled uncontrollably."What... What is it..." I couldn't help clutching the hem of my clothes. I was prepared for the worst.I was a werewolf, and my senses were sharper than human beings. Right at this moment, my worries about my baby were eating me up.To my surprise, the doctor smiled, "Congratulations, Ms. Hartley. You're carrying twins. I saw two fetal hearts."My eyes became teary at once. I asked with caution, my lips trembling, "Then ... are they developing well?""Well, from what I can see, the answer is yes. You've got nothing to worry about."I stroked my lower abdomen and burst into tears of joy.I wasn't having a baby. I was having two!As Joanna pushed the door and entered, she saw the look on my face, and she figured something bad had hap

Derek's POVKamp looked at me and couldn't help but say, "Alpha Derek, we're talking about two lives here. Women have to go through a lot before finally giving birth. I think..."Obadiah might be slow, but the intense atmosphere made him feel something off. He asked, "What are you talking about?"I had already lost patience and got up to leave. "Prepare for the surgery."Obadiah grabbed Kamp's hand. "Tell me the truth. What surgery?"Kamp sighed and followed me while saying to Obadiah, "It's been a month. You tell me."Obadiah stood in situ with a confused look on his face.Then he caught up with us and asked me, "Alpha Derek, you love Tabitha a lot, right? Why would you want her to have an abortion? It's twins!"I didn't answer him.He continued, "Obviously, Tabitha has no idea. She discreetly texted me last night, asking me to do her a favor. You really think this is a good idea? Can you really bear to see her losing her babies now that

Tabitha's POVAt that moment, my mind was completely blank.I felt like I was dreaming, thinking there must have been something wrong.I knew all of Derek's few good friends. Even if I hadn't met all of them in person, I had at least heard their names.There was no man named Alpha Leopold.I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down.Maybe Derek deliberately chose someone unfamiliar because he was afraid of being noticed.I couldn't scare myself. Even if I lived in Alpha Leopold's house, it didn't prove anything.But what Gloria said in the next moment made me lose all reason."I said the house was my boss'. Do you remember the day we met? I was holding the bottle of folic acid to chase after you when he said something. He said that he knew you and that you were someone's crush. I was in a hurry to give you the folic acid and changed the topic to talk about work with him when I came back. I completely forgot about this matter."

Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 799
Rolf was so focused on escaping that he barely had time to marvel at the spectacle unfolding before him."If this isn't a nightmare, I don't know what is", he thought, sprinting for his life.He knew if he fell, he'd be bitten to death by the venomous snakes.Never in his life had Rolf run so fast. He sprinted in the direction of the sound, desperation lending him strength.Up ahead, perched in a peach tree like a guardian angel, sat Hedwig.Her tiny fingers danced over a bamboo flute, its melody ringing in the charged air.To Rolf and Misha, however, the "ding-dong" notes felt like a death knell tolling ever closer.Snakes swarmed from all directions like a rising tide. Rolf knew if this kept up, they'd both end up as snake fodder.Panic clawed at his throat. Without a word to Misha, he unceremoniously dumped her onto the ground.Misha was still disoriented when she was roughly thrown to the ground. Before she could rea

"Agreed," Alvin replied. The memory of Hedwig's earlier glare at Misha sent a shiver down his spine.He had a foreboding that Misha might already be in Hedwig's crosshairs.Given that this was Hedwig's home turf, Alvin worried their group might not stand a chance in a confrontation.This added a layer of anxiety to an already tense situation.Meanwhile, Tabitha remained fast asleep, a serene smile playing on her lips.After a short play with the fawn, a pigeon flew in from outside the cave and landed on Hedwig's shoulder, cooing softly. Hedwig paused at the sound, glancing at Tabitha still lost in slumber.With a moment of hesitation, she quietly rose and tiptoed away, not wanting to disturb Tabitha's rest.Misha, who had always sailed through life with ease, had encountered her greatest challenge in the form of unrequited love.Ever since Derek had rescued her, she had vowed to marry him when she grew up.Throughout her

Hedwig nodded understandingly, her face lighting up with innocent joy.She carefully lowered herself onto the lawn and gently pressed a sweet kiss to Tabitha's cheek, her movements as delicate as a butterfly's wings.Her movements were incredibly gentle, for fear of disturbing Tabitha.Then, she sat quietly by the pool, watching butterflies dance around them—a scene so serene it could have been plucked from a masterpiece painting.Tabitha's exhaustion overwhelmed her, her eyelids growing heavier by the second until she drifted into a deep sleep by the pool's edge.Her long, silk-like hair cascaded down, and without her mask, her porcelain skin glowed.Compared to before, she seemed even more beautiful now, like a sleeping fairy, radiating an enchanting charm.Hedwig stayed by her side without disturbing Tabitha, quietly gathering herbs nearby with focused and skillful movements.The forest creatures adored her—a faw

Misha watched Tabitha and Alma walk away, her anger flaring up again.She glared at the back of Tabitha's head and instinctively touched her red cheek.Growing up, she had never been treated like this. The humiliation filled her heart with resentment."Once Derek's poison is neutralized, I'll make them pay", she vowed silently.Alban, seeing the hatred in Misha's eyes, felt a chill.He knew Misha's background—her family's influence was no secret. He'd brought her here out of concern for Derek's blood type.Having watched Misha and Derek grow up, he was well aware of their temperaments.Given Misha's current state, he feared she would cause more trouble.So, he tried to persuade her again, "Look, things are under control here. It's not proper for a young lady like you to stay. I'll have someone escort you out.""I'm not leaving, Dr. Weaver. I'm staying to take care of Derek!" Misha said stubbornly, turning her head
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 795
Misha's eyes welled up the moment she saw Derek awake. She lunged toward him, crying, "I've been so worried!"Derek sidestepped her embrace instinctively and said coolly, "I'm fine. I've delayed you long enough. I need to stay for treatment; you should head back."Misha's jaw dropped in shock.Misha had traveled so far and gone through so much, only to hear Derek tell her to leave as soon as he woke up."I need to care for you—your eyesight's impaired. I've already taken leave," she pleaded."You'll be fine. Rolf and Alvin are here. It's not convenient for you, a young woman, to stay," Derek insisted.Misha stamped her foot in frustration. "What's inconvenient about it? You're not married, and neither am I. Remember when we were on missions together? We took care of each other then, didn't we?"Alma happened to pass by and overhear the conversation, finally realizing that Misha had been the one making advances all along.

Derek jolted awake after an hour of sleep.In a daze, sensing someone beside him, he instinctively pulled them into his arms, exclaiming, "Tabitha, you came for me."Alvin sighed, "Alpha Derek, it's me."Derek fumbled blindly in the air, urgency lacing his voice, "Where's Tabitha? Where did she go?""You were dreaming again," Alvin explained patiently."A dream?" Derek frowned, confusion washing over him.But why did the dream feel so real? So real that he could almost feel the give of Tabitha's skin, recall the touch of her body, and even remember the warmth of her flesh. Her voice still seemed to linger in his ears."Tabitha's probably miles away. She couldn't be here," Alvin added.Derek's heart sank, the joy from moments ago replaced by emptiness. It felt as though he'd found his most precious treasure, only to realize it was just a dream.He bowed his head, a bitter smile tugging at his lips. "Right, how could I rea
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 793
At Derek's words, Tabitha was suddenly reminded of his words from years ago, when he had said the person in his dreams was her.She couldn't help but wonder what exactly this scoundrel had done to her in his dreams."Tabitha, hold me," Derek pleaded like a petulant child.Tabitha recalled the early days of their marriage. Back then, Derek was reticent and self-absorbed in bed, rarely showing any emotion or expressing his feelings.She often doubted whether he even liked her, if not for the fact that his actions left her bedridden the next day.Derek had locked all his emotions in an airtight box, allowing no one to peek inside.But over the years, their dynamics had done a complete turnaround.Now, Tabitha buried her feelings deep within, becoming cold and distant, while Derek had transformed into someone unrecognizably vulnerable and open.At this moment, Derek was like an overly affectionate, enthusiastic dog, intimately fami

Tabitha was deeply focused on listening to Derek's heartbeat. Irritated by his question, she simply hushed him with a "Shh" and said, "Don't talk." Her attention was entirely on his heart rate. She had no intention of being distracted by others.After finishing with his heartbeat, Tabitha gently pried open Derek's eyelids for a closer look.His pupils were dull and lifeless, making it impossible to assess the internal damage with the naked eye.It seemed that only after administering the antidote and conducting a professional examination outside could they determine the extent of the eye damage.Tabitha silently resolved that if they could just detoxify him, there would be hope for the gradual recovery of his other organs.At Tabitha's "Shh," Derek obediently fell silent.Despite feeling as though he were in a dream, he cherished this fleeting moment, thinking that even an extra minute with Tabitha would give him more memories to hold onto i
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 791
Derek clung to Tabitha like a koala to a tree trunk, refusing to let go.His voice was urgent and filled with longing as he declared, "Tabitha, you have no idea how long I've been searching for you! Every day, every night, your image haunted my thoughts. I was such a fool. If I had known you would vanish completely, I never would have let you go."Tabitha's heart skipped a beat at his words.Recalling her departure, she realized how strange it had been—how smoothly she had left.Back then, Tabitha had barely left when someone came chasing after her. Had Derek known of her plan from the start?If he had wanted to stop her, he could have nipped her plan in the bud."Why did you let me go, then?" she asked.Derek, lost in the joy of their reunion, poured out his feelings unreservedly. "I've always felt guilty for the wrongs I did you. I wanted to make amends."Tabitha gazed into Derek's eyes, noticing the red marks on his face.Despite his usual handsomeness, these marks added an air of
