LOGINThird person's POV
Derek believed that this method would be more in line with Wilmot's identity, not arousing Tabitha's suspicions.
"Is that safe?" she asked.
"I've already arranged it with my friend. As long as we stay in our room and don't provoke anyone, there won't be any issues. We're not involved in any activities on that ship. We're just hitching a ride."
Tabitha was reluctant to take such a ship, fearing potential danger, but it was one of the few ways back
Bently's pursuit of power was nothing but blunt. His fawning over Michelle was a mirror image of Michelle's obsession with Derek. But a lowly "clinger" would never catch the eye of the proud.Michelle gave Bentley a dismissive glance, letting out a half-hearted "Thanks" that barely counted as a response.The word had barely left her mouth before she was hiking up her skirt and scurrying toward Derek.Bentley froze, his fists clenching until his knuckles popped beneath his sleeves.Derek stood there in a sharp, pitch-black suit, his face partially obscured by his signature silver mask. He looked like a high-ranking Alpha who had just stepped out of the abyss—mysterious, cold, and utterly unattainable. He drew the repressed, burning stares of every female in the room."Derek!" Michelle called out gleefully, fluttering toward him like a butterfly desperate for attention.From not far, Tabitha swirled her champagne, a mocking smile playing
As night fell, the entire place went into high alert. Armored vehicles cleared the way, and top-tiered chefs were busy preparing food in the kitchen. The air was thick with the rich, smoky aroma of high-end ingredients hitting the grill.Tabitha stood under the gallery, reaching out to catch a single, shimmering snowflake. She never imagined that in this remote territory, she'd experience such an event of this magnitude again.Looking back at the girl from seven years ago, who had just received devastating news and thought she wouldn't survive the winter, and then at the woman standing here now, breathing freely in the snow... It felt like a dream woven from ice.She hadn't just survived; she had flourished. She had lovely pups now, all carrying the blood of a great Alpha.Tonight, she intended to be a quiet observer. But the moment she stepped into the ballroom, the bustling crowd fell into a sudden, collective hush.Michelle was dressed to the ni
Tabitha woke up after a deep sleep. Her room had an incredible view with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a world of pristine white. The snow clinging to the walls created a stark, elegant beauty that felt serene.The curtains slid open automatically, letting in the morning sun reflecting off the snow. After a quick wash-up and applying the plain-looking mask to her face, she headed out to prepare the herbal meal for Algernon.A blast of biting cold hit her the moment she stepped out, making her tuck her head into her shoulders and let out a sharp sneeze. In the dead of winter, every gust of wind felt like a blade.She stood there looking out into the distance, her mind drifting to Killian. Derek had mentioned the boy had been sent to a secluded island for specialized elite werewolf training and was currently off the grid.By the time spring rolls around, that kid is going to have hit a massive growth spurt, she thought."Good morning." A deep voice broke her train of thought.Cyr
“What banquet?” Tabitha asked, arching an eyebrow.“Probably a ‘mate-choosing' gala,” Derek said, gazing at her with a look of intense, smoldering possessiveness. “I wish I could tear through space and time to be by your side right now.”Tabitha hung up with a light chuckle.She was not interested in the banquet at all. Instead, she wondered how Bonnie and Michelle were doing in their freezing chambers.She thought Algernon was just venting his anger earlier, but it turned out the Lycan had actually issued a direct order.Inside the side wing where the central heating had been cut, Michelle was currently wrapped in three layers of heavy fur rugs, throwing a complete tantrum in the main hall. “This is so unfair! How could Dad let me freeze for the sake of that stupid woman?! My claws are literally numb!”“I don't know if he did it for her, but I know he won't tolerate anyone challeng
Lycan Algernon's fondness for Tabitha was purely out of a gut feeling. As for the whole "chosen mate" thing, the thought hadn't even crossed his mind.But seeing Bonnie so repulsed and mentioning Tabitha like some worthless rogue made Algernon feel a surge of irritation."Vanessa is a top-tier doctor. Her skills can literally snatch people back from the brink of death. Was that still not good enough?""Didn't you hear Michelle? She's already a mother! I bet her mate is probably some rogue lurking at the border! My son is the commander of the greatest army; he's not taking some lowborn she-wolf as his 'chosen mate'!"Algernon slammed his palm onto the table, making the cups rattle. "Bonnie, watch your mouth! I never said a word about making a match for the two of them. I'm looking out for her because she saved my life, and because I feel for a young girl who's out here all on her own! Besides, with her reputation, countless people are begging for her help.
Algernon looked at her with a warm gaze. "I admire your spirit. And your eyes remind me of...""My eyes?" Tabitha met his gaze, looking curiously into those commanding eyes."Never mind... Vanessa, keep up the good work. You have real talent. I'll make sure you're well taken care of." Algernon swallowed the rest of his words.The truth was, her eyes resembled those of another person.Tabitha, the one who made his heart skip a beat.Back then, Derek married Tabitha without his permission, so Algernon hadn't met the bride until Derek brought her back to an awards ceremony. When Algernon saw her face, he was shocked to his core.He sent someone digging into her background and learned that Tabitha's father was John from the Silver Moon Pack. It was a native branch with no possible blood tie to "that woman." Perhaps, she just happened to look like her out of pure coincidence.Tabitha could feel the change in Algernon's pheromones, but sinc

Derek's POV Alvin obviously didn't believe it. "No way! We've run a test. How could that be?" "This time, the tissue was extracted from the bone of the body. You saw the results yourself. They're not related at all. The report back then was tampered with." Alvin was shocked. "If she's not Elena, who
Tabitha's POV The moment I hung up the phone, I was buzzing with excitement. I felt so lucky. Just as I thought I had reached a dead end, suddenly, a new clue came up. I asked Chloe to look after Kyrian. She glanced at the time and asked, "Tabitha, where are you off to at this
