Third person's POV

The bond of natural kinship was something that could not be severed, no matter that Ayla had never met Tabitha before.

Lucian had shown Ayla pictures of Tabitha.

She was a woman with a warm smile and hair, unlike the emaciated and haggard figure she was now.

Yet, Ayla recognized her as her mother at first glance.

Tabitha's reaction mirrored Derek's, holding Ayla tightly as tears streamed down her face.

These were tears of joy from their reunion. Holding her child brought back the memories of the hardships she endured the day she gave birth to them.

She had thought she would never see her children again, and now here they were, grown so big and soft. How could she not be moved?

Ayla found it increasingly strange that the handsome man who held her a few days ago cried a lot, and now her mother was crying too.

She didn't understand.

Gently, she wiped away Tabitha's tears and blew on her eyes, sayin

    Third person's POVThinking about how she could bring disaster and misfortune to those around her, Tabitha unconsciously held Ayla a little tighter.Ayla was found through countless hardships. This time, no matter the cost, she was determined to protect them.Now that she knew her children were alive, Tabitha felt much more at ease.Next, she planned to recuperate and secretly investigate the truth.As long as the culprit was not exposed, she would have to keep hiding.If she showed her face, both her children would be in danger.But why should she, who was innocent, have to live in hiding?Why should her children live in the shadows like rats, always on the run?Damn it, the one to blame was the person who had harmed her.That person had caused her marriage to break up, her family to be destroyed, her children to be separated, and her to lose everything.Joanna's unclosed eyes would forever be etched

    Third person's POVTabitha's brow was furrowed. Her only concern was Helios.Although Lucian was with him, she worried about what could have happened during their hasty escape in the heavy rain.She knew her worries were futile. She couldn't reach Lucian if she arrived in Seattle."Alright, I'll stay here for a while," she agreed.With Ayla by her side, Lucian would surely find a way to contact her. The most pressing matter was her health.Ayla was a very well-behaved child. She endured hardships without complaint and was not picky about food, lacking the petulance and unreasonableness typical of her age.Tabitha was happy spending time with her but felt heartache more than anything.Such well-behaved children often had a history of hardships. Those who had weathered storms became more understanding.The more trials they faced, the more well-behaved they became.Tabitha didn't blame Lucian. He had saved her child,

    Third person's POVTabitha's thoughts drifted far away. Her mother had left when she was very young.She grew up in a pack without a Luna, and not only that, she didn't have a mother.Although her father had always been caring towards her, providing for her daily life and guiding her psychologically, raising her to be graceful, optimistic, and kind, there were still many things a father couldn't make up for.For instance, during parent-child sports events at school, many activities required the participation of both parents.From childhood, whenever she saw other children holding their mothers' hands, eating meals made by their mothers, and showing off clothes carefully chosen by their mothers, no matter how excellent she was, she would secretly envy those children with the company of their mothers.In her mind, if she ever had children, she must be responsible for them, love them well, and never let her children grow up in a family without

    Third person's POVOver a month had passed in the blink of an eye, and life on the island had been peaceful, simple, and beautiful.Tabitha's health had noticeably improved.Although the wolfsbane in her body was like an undetonated bomb yet to be eliminated, compared to her previous state of being on the brink of death, there was more hope and anticipation now.During this time, her relationship with Derek had significantly improved, becoming closer and more harmonious.Due to Tabitha's limited energy, most of her time was spent with Ayla and Derek playing together, which inevitably led to some close contact between the three.At this moment, Ayla wanted to go to the water park.Unable to resist her, Tabitha agreed reluctantly.Tabitha sat by the pool without entering the water, so Ayla turned to Derek for help, "Wilmot, please."Derek had been avoiding water activities these days because he had applied a special plant

    Third person's POVTabitha had thought they were in real trouble, considering this was a private pool with no instructors or lifeguards around.If anything happened, no one would notice.Derek appeared out of nowhere, swiftly reaching out one hand to pluck Ayla from the water as if she were a chick, and with the other, he quickly wrapped his arm around Tabitha's waist.After safely placing Ayla on the shore, he turned to Tabitha with concern and asked, "How are you feeling now?""My leg cramped. I just need a moment to recover.""Alright, hold on tight to me."At that moment, Tabitha didn't care about maintaining any proper distance between a man and a woman. She wrapped her arms tightly around Derek's neck, waiting for the painful cramps in her leg to subside.Derek wasn't in a hurry. After confirming Ayla was fine, he just stayed quietly with Tabitha.It took about ten seconds for the spasms in her calf to gradually ea

  • Alpha's Wife Hunt   Chapter 647

    Third person's POVAfter Tabitha finished washing up, her mood gradually settled.She reminded herself that she and Derek rejected each other already. Any emotional connection she had with another man was none of his business.It was just a bit of intimate contact—what did that really mean?Was she supposed to live the rest of her life without any new romantic experiences?As she prepared to leave with the children, Ayla suddenly stopped, pointing at a few drops of purplish liquid on the ground. "Mommy, look."Tabitha glanced down, puzzled about what it could be.It looked like mulberry juice, but they hadn’t eaten any mulberries today.The cleaning staff had done their rounds early in the morning, so how could there be such obvious stains at the entrance?When she opened the door, she noticed that the floor had already been mopped, with water stains left behind. The staff had warned her that the floor was sl

    Third person's POVTabitha did the math and realized she had been with Wilmot for almost half a year.From their initial cautious interactions to him becoming like a full-time nanny, taking care of her child without complaint, Tabitha had long stopped being as vigilant as she once was."I..." she started to say something but swallowed her words. The situation was too complex. She didn't know where to begin."It's okay, my lips are sealed. I won't tell anyone else," Wilmot reassured her.Tabitha glanced at Ayla and said, "Let's talk about it later.""Alright."He responded, patient as ever. He had already spent half a year waiting for Tabitha to open up to him, so what was a little more waiting?When Ayla took a nap, Derek sat outside by the flower bed, waiting.As Tabitha came out, he immediately stood up and said, "Ms. Hartley.""No need for formalities, let's sit and talk," she suggested."Of course."

    Third person's POVTabitha's voice wasn't loud, but each word hit home, leaving Derek speechless.Yes, he had hurt her so deeply. How could she possibly consider getting back together with him?He was being utterly unrealistic.Seeing Derek's silence, Tabitha's face flickered with discomfort as she said, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure just now.""No, people like your ex-husband, I think he couldn't make up for the pain he caused you even if he died a hundred times," Derek replied."I just hope we never meet again in this life, as if we had never known each other," Tabitha added.Derek recomposed himself and asked, "I understand. So we need to sneak back to Seattle without him finding out, right?""Yes, that's why I followed the captain to smuggle myself back before, and encountering pirates was just an unfortunate event. Now that this route is gone, we have to think of another way," Tabitha explained."Don't worry, I'll

    Her long hair cascaded down, and as she leaned over, a strand gently swept across Derek's neck—a feather-light touch that sent a shiver of ticklish sensation through him.The familiar herbal fragrance snapped Derek back to reality. He turned to look at Tabitha.Though he could only see a hazy outline, a wave of familiarity washed over him.He replied, "I've got a splitting headache, feeling nauseous, and no appetite.""Open your mouth and stick out your tongue," Tabitha instructed, her fingers lightly touching Derek's chin.Her cool fingertips pried open his mouth.Derek sensed the blurred figure drawing closer, even feeling Tabitha's breath.She examined his tongue, then released his chin, her expression serious. "I need to check your body," she said.This time, Derek didn't resist.Tabitha's fingers began unbuttoning his shirt, one button at a time.The action, the sensation—it all felt like a trip d

    It wasn't until the bamboo flute's melody faded completely that Misha collapsed to the ground like a puppet whose strings had been cut.She felt as though she'd lost half her life force, every ounce of strength drained from her body.Initially planning to leave the next day, Misha fell ill that very night.Delirious and raving, she was swallowed by confusion.Back at their quarters, Rolf returned with a face flushed with excitement, eager to recount yesterday's events to Alvin in vivid detail.Gesturing wildly, he said, "You should've seen it—spectacular! Those snakes came pouring in from every direction, like something out of a horror movie. It gave me the creeps just watching."Alvin listened, his brow furrowing with each passing word.Recalling Alma's parting words— "See that you behave" —a nagging sense of unease settled in his stomach. Misha's illness felt anything but coincidental."What're you thinking?" Rolf asked, noti

    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

    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
