Derek's POV

Thinking back, Tabitha was always bundled up in thick down jackets, a far cry from her vanity of only wearing wool coats back in the day.

So she wasn't putting on an act.

She really was sick.

I wrapped her up tight, not letting a bit of wind sneak in.

Tabitha's cheeks were burning up, looking all pitiful yet cute.

What had she been through exactly? How come she got so weak?

Holding her, I realized she was way lighter than before. I couldn't help tightening my embrace.

Finally, the car arrived at the pack hospital. Kamp came over with the blood test report, saying, "Alpha Derek, I heard about what had happened from Alvin. Luna's critical. We gotta put her on a drip."

I held Tabitha the whole time, and she seemed delirious from fever, mumbling non-stop.

She instinctively covered her belly with one hand and reached out into the void with another. "Save me. Save our child," she exclaimed.

Her right hand still got the IV

  • Alpha's Wife Hunt   Chapter 833

    Derek was way more well-behaved than last night. "Alright, I won't look. I've got some clean clothes in my backpack. You can borrow them."He got up and headed out. "I'll go spread some insect-repelling powder."His figure paused at the cave entrance. There was a flash of worry in his eyes before he slowly disappeared into the rain.Tabitha found a big shirt of his. After changing, she quickly snuggled into the sleeping bag.Derek returned soon. Tabitha poked out her head, reminding Derek of their honeymoon days.Though his clothes were waterproof, they'd still gotten pretty wet.He took off his jacket and hung it on the rack, revealing a white T-shirt underneath.It was a bit damp too, clinging to his body and showing off his muscles."Tabitha... can I take my shirt off?" Derek asked softly.After last night, he didn't want to upset her.Tabitha turned her head away. "Mm-hmm."Derek took off his shirt and

    Derek snapped back to reality. He'd let excitement and desire cloud his judgment.Tabitha had come down the cliff in the pouring rain—she must be hurt.Guilt and worry hit him like a tidal wave. How could he have overlooked this?"Tabitha, where are you hurt?"His voice was urgent, his eyes scanning her body as if he could find every injury with just his gaze.Tabitha was still in a daze. She'd chased after him without a second thought, but now that she was here, embarrassment filled her face.Her mind was a storm of conflicting emotions.Just last night, she'd made harsh vows to hate Derek.How quickly things had turned."I'm fine," she lied, her voice trembling as she avoided Derek's eyes, as if fleeing from the truth within herself.The cave was pitch-black, no tools to light the way, and the outside light was fading fast.Though it was daytime, it was nearly as dark as night.Tabitha frowne

    If Derek headed north in this downpour, he'd surely look for shelter first.So finding him wouldn't be hard. As long as he's still alive.With that thought, she picked up her pace.A distant animal call echoed—sounded like a wild boar.It was breeding season, and boars with piglets were especially fierce. Could it be Derek...?Tabitha sprinted forward.Up close, she saw a wild boar battling a python. The snake had coiled around the boar, which, with immense strength, was thrashing about trying to throw it off.Tabitha, caught in the crossfire, became a target. The boar charged her way.Quick on her feet, she drew her gun and fired at the boar, hoping to scare it off."Bang!" The bullet hit not the boar, but the python on its back.The boar, startled, charged straight at Tabitha."Look out!"Before Tabitha could react, several shots rang out, striking the boar's legs.With its legs broken

    Tabitha patted his shoulder. "Leave it to me. On my turf, I won't let him get hurt."Besides, she had planned to leave in a few days anyway. She was ready to head out."Please take good care of Mrs. Atkinson for me," she said."Tabitha, you can't. It's too dangerous," he urged."Look, I've done plenty of dangerous things before. What's one more?" she replied.With that, Tabitha used Derek's rope to find footholds and began her descent. Derek must have left at dawn; otherwise, the poor visibility would have been too risky.It had been a little over two hours since he left. If she hurried, she could catch up.This wasn't Tabitha's first time on this path.She had trained here before, using the cliffs as her challenge.Every time she thought of how the nurses and doctors looked at her after Derek was rushed to the emergency room, and the slap from Misha, she was reminded that she was an outsider in their world.Deter

    Tabitha's hands shook as she held the letter. So Wilmot was real but had died over four years ago. That's why Derek had assumed his identity.Back then, she was consumed by self-hatred, and Derek, at a loss, had to protect her under another identity.No wonder he'd blindfolded her that night. No wonder he knew all her preferences. No wonder she'd sensed Derek in him time and again.Derek had never truly left.The knot in Tabitha's heart was finally untied. Hedwig was Derek's child, just like Ayla and Helios.The handwriting grew increasingly crooked toward the end, nearly illegible."Tabitha, I'm sorry. If there's a next life, let me love you again, okay?"Tears dropped onto the letter as Tabitha's grip on it tightened, her emotions spiraling out of control."Tabitha, you and Alpha Derek have been through so much together. You know how much he loves you. You have no idea what he's been through these years. He suffered so much l

    Derek hung his head low. "I own up to my mistakes. Can you just give me a chance to make it right with you and the kid?""Nah, we're fine without you, Derek. The best thing you can do for me is just stay the hell away.""Tabitha, do you really hate me that much?""Yeah, I do. I hate you. I hate how you put me through all that hell. I hate how you spun this whole fucked-up dream for me and then ripped it all away. I hate that you made me into what I am today."Derek's gaze dimmed like the moon suddenly obscured by dark clouds.After a long silence, Derek muttered in a choked voice, "Sorry."He stared hard at Tabitha. "I lied to you again. My vision's back. I just kept pretending to be blind 'cause I didn't want to leave. You probably hate me even more now. I really don't wanna say sorry again, but I always fuck things up. In the end, I just end up hurting you again. You're right. I am selfish and obsessive. You must really regret knowing me."
