Third person's POV

Witnessing the child fall into the sea, Tabitha felt as if all the blood in her body had solidified in an instant, her heart seemingly gripped by an invisible hand.

How could this be?

The little girl had been within reach, about to be saved. Why was fate so cruel as to shatter hope at this critical moment?

The little boy's heart-wrenching cries pierced Tabitha's ears like a sharp sword, "Ayla!"

Tabitha instinctively looked down at the boy.

When she saw his face, which bore a striking resemblance to her own, her inner world was shaken as if by a powerful earthquake. She was experiencing an unprecedented impact.

A bold and irresistible thought flashed through her mind.

She had no time for contemplation or verification.

This thought took root and spread like wild grass, driving her to act irrationally and leap over the railing into the sea without a second thought.

Her thoughts surged back to three

In her madness from fear, she struggled wildly.Tabitha had exhausted all her strength just to keep them afloat. Ayla's constant struggle made it even harder for Tabitha, with her physical strength rapidly dwindling.The waves were rough, and she had swallowed several mouthfuls of seawater.

    Third person's POVWilmot had barely brought her ashore. Tabitha was wrapped in a large towel and her soaked clothes still clinging to her when she urgently inquired about Ayla's whereabouts.Her lips were purple from the cold, and her pale face looked pitiful."We're safe now. The little one has been taken to the warship where a doctor is examining her. You should change your clothes first to avoid catching a cold," Wilmot advised."No, I want to see her first."Tabitha insisted, hastily stepping down from the bed and running outside barefoot.In the corridor, she saw men dressed in uniform and armed with weapons. An overwhelming sense of pressure enveloped her.It dawned on Tabitha that she was no longer on the ship she had been traveling on but on a formidable warship.The moment she stepped out of the room, all eyes turned to her.Tabitha's movements froze, her face flushed with embarrassment. In the tense and oppres

    Third person's POVWilmot replied calmly, "When we were rescued, I told him.""That's correct, it was this... sir who mentioned it. I'll leave now."For some reason, Tabitha felt as if the doctor was fleeing, quickly exiting the room.Wilmot said peacefully, "Change your clothes first, and I'll bring you some hot drinks.""Okay."Now, only Tabitha and Ayla remained in the room. Tabitha carefully undressed Ayla.Ayla's height was comparable to that of her peers, with no signs of being born prematurely.Her skin was fair and tender. Aside from a few small wounds on her hands, it was evident that Lucian had taken good care of them.Tabitha wrapped Ayla in a large men's shirt and then began to change her own clothes.She was given a shirt of the same size, which hung long on her, covering her thighs.Tabitha quickly put on the men's pants as well. Although they were loose, it was better than nothing.A f

    Third person's POVHe stood in front of the mirror. His fingers gently pinched the thin edge of the facial prosthetic, slowly peeling it off.As the prosthetic came off, a pair of chiseled features gradually revealed themselves.They were a cold, stern gaze, a high-bridged nose, and sharply defined lips that exuded a unique charm.His skin, already fair, was nearly translucent from lack of sunlight, appearing even paler under the lights.His shirt collar was slightly open, hinting at his collarbones.He stared silently at his reflection, like a vampire emerging from a medieval castle.He was elegant and noble, yet distant and aloof.With a light step, he moved into the steamy, hot shower area.Fine droplets from the showerhead rained down on him.After a moment, black liquid flowed slowly down his skin, snaking across the white floor like a mysterious ink snake.He closed his eyes, allowing the water to was

    Third person's POVBy the time Derek rushed back to the warship, Tabitha was already delirious from the fever, her body scorching yet muttering that she was cold.The military doctor, his face tense, reported, "Sir, I've administered medication to Ms. Hartley. But given her unique condition, it's dangerous if the fever persists."Fortunately, the warship was well-equipped with medical resources. Derek stayed by her side, waiting for the fever to subside on its own.The sky was still dark, the grayness outside matched only by the roaring of the sea, clearly audible.Derek lay down next to Tabitha. His eyes were filled with heartache as he looked at her.Although they had been in close proximity, he had to pretend to be someone else, not even daring to look at her directly, which had raised her suspicions more than once.His strong mental resilience allowed him to deceive Tabitha.Gently, he reached out to touch Tabitha's tranqui

    Third person's POVJust then, a soft "knock knock" sounded on the door, like a basin of cold water dumped over Derek.He quickly disengaged from Tabitha. What was he doing? Taking advantage of her sleep to do such a thing.If Tabitha were to wake up at this moment, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.Derek strode to the door, a hint of tension on his face, "What's up?"Rolf rubbed his eyes. Was it his illusion? Did Derek's face seem flushed?"Uh... the doctor asked me to bring this fever reducer. It's time for Tabitha to take it.""Alright." Derek took it silently, "Any news of Lucian?""The sea is rough at night, and the drones can't be controlled. We haven't found his whereabouts yet, but don't worry. He can't get far with Kyrian.""Understood, inform me the moment there's any news.""Got it."Derek closed the door again and walked back to Tabitha's side. She still showed no signs of waking up.

    Third person's POVLittle Ayla found the complex emotions of adults hard to comprehend, her eyes filled with confusion and curiosity.Derek's emotions were like a raging storm within him."Sweetheart, you must have suffered a lot over the years, haven't you?" he asked.Suffer?Ayla didn't know what suffering meant. All she knew was that being with Helios and Lucian was happiness."By the way, are you hungry?" Derek quickly ordered various delicious foods and drinks to be brought over.Being a child, her eyes lit up at the sight of the spread.However, just as she was about to dig in, her excitement dimmed, and she softly said, "Helios."Derek gently stroked Ayla's head, "Don't worry. I've sent people to pick up Helios. You'll be reunited with him soon. Eat up, there will be food for Helios, too."It was evident that the child was very hungry, but she ate slowly, with an innate elegance in her demeanor.Alth

    Third person's POVTabitha's face turned anxious as she quickly grasped Derek's sleeve, asking, "What do you mean? He was taken away? Where to?""Ms. Hartley, please calm down. Let me explain slowly."He pulled out the surveillance footage, "Look, this man took him away. But from the video, it seems like Helios went willingly. I think he knows this man."Under Derek's soothing words, Tabitha gradually quieted down and watched the video over and over again.Although the background was chaotic, Helios seemed to go voluntarily, indeed. The person who took him away was Lucian.Knowing that Lucian had taken Helios, Tabitha felt a bit more relieved.After all, in such a chaotic situation, Lucian wouldn't have known she was on the ship. If he jumped down to save Ayla, both children might have been in danger.He must have seen someone else had already gone to save Ayla. Since he had snuck onto the ship, the consequences would have been

    "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

    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

    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

    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

    Third person's POVThis was why Tabitha had chosen Alvin over Rolf.She adjusted her waterlogged mask, now nearly peeling off, and swiftly exited the scene.Rolf muttered behind her, "Alpha Derek, don't go around hugging people. What if she gets clingy? Tabitha's still out there—what if she sees this and makes you wait another decade?"Derek remained silent."But seriously," Rolf continued, "the doctor's build and height are identical to Tabitha's. Just the face is different."Derek seized on this. "What did you say?""I said she looks like Tabitha, except for the face. Alpha Derek, don't get carried away—it's not like Tabitha to pop up just because you're poisoned. You've looked for her for three and a half years with no luck."Derek rubbed his temples, chalking it up to longing-induced hallucinations.Tabitha retreated to her room, exhausted from the sleepless night of brewing and changing medicines.
