Chapter 15

Author: Cher
"Mr. Blackwood, we've screened over ten thousand leads, but most are false information."

The private investigator reported the latest developments wearily. The desk was piled high with eyewitness reports from around the world.

Derek looked pale, his eyes bloodshot. He appeared not to have slept in days.

"Keep looking!" His voice came out hoarse. "Increase the bounty. Make it 100 million dollars!"

"Mr. Blackwood, at this rate your health..."

"I said keep looking!" Derek roared and grabbed a stack of documents from the desk, hurling them at the wall.

Just then, Roy rushed in.

"Mr. Blackwood, important news!" he said breathlessly. "Someone spotted Ms. Vance at an old church in Arcanum's Bellin City!"

Derek shot up from his chair instantly. Hope reignited in his eyes.

"Are you sure?"

"They already sent photos. It's definitely Ms. Vance!"

Derek immediately checked the photos. In the image, I wore a simple beige trench coat and stood in front of an ancient Gothic church.

    Derek bought a small cabin deep in the forest on the border of Fesmington. The place was humble, with only basic necessities. But from here, he could see Moon Haven Sanctuary in the valley below.That was the pup sanctuary I'd established. It had become well known.Derek became a forest ranger. His daily work consisted of patrolling the mountains, protecting the forest, and occasionally helping lost hikers.He cut his hair short and grew out his beard. He wore plain work clothes. There was no trace of the Alpha he'd once been.For five years, he never approached the sanctuary. He only watched from afar and gathered bits of news about me from passersby. And I never encountered him. I had no idea he was there.One afternoon, three rogues attacked my sanctuary. My guards and I fought desperately to hold them off, but we were clearly outmatched.Derek didn't hesitate. He instantly shifted to his wolf form and charged out. His strength far exceeded those rogues, and he subdued all thr

    Derek woke up three days later. He saw Grand Elder Fenrir sitting beside the bed, his aged face filled with exhaustion and worry."Grandfather, why are you crying?" Derek struggled to sit up."I contacted Katherine," Grand Elder Fenrir said directly. "She refused to see you."Derek froze, then shook his head. "That's impossible. She's just upset. I'll go find her. I'll explain everything myself.""Derek!" Grand Elder Fenrir stopped him sharply. "Listen to what she said."He played the recorded call. My calm and resolute voice filled the hospital room. When Derek heard me say his feelings for me were just an Alpha's obsession, his face went completely pale."She's doing well," Grand Elder Fenrir said meaningfully. "She has her own life now. Let her go."Derek stayed silent for a long time. Then he suddenly threw off the blanket and stumbled toward the door."I have to find her! I need to tell her face-to-face! I need to tell her I've really changed!"However, his body was too w

    In the great hall of the Blackwood manor, 80-year-old Grand Elder Fenrir sat in a high-backed chair. His imposing presence filled the entire room with an oppressive atmosphere."Derek." Grand Elder Fenrir's voice was aged but still commanding. "Kneel."Derek dropped to one knee without hesitation."Do you know what you've done wrong?""I..." Derek barely started speaking before Grand Elder Fenrir raised his hand to stop him."You defiled a sacred mate bond and brought shame to the entire pack. Your stupidity and weakness nearly cost us dearly." Grand Elder Fenrir stood, his voice growing harsher."Most importantly, you hurt Katherine. That sweet woman didn't deserve any of this."Derek lowered his head, not daring to argue."William," Grand Elder Fenrir called for the butler. "Bring the family whip."William brought over a black wooden box with trembling hands. Inside lay a whip soaked in silver water, gleaming coldly in the moonlight.Silver water was deadly poison to werewo

    "Alpha Derek, you need to return home immediately!"At 3:00 am, Derek was jolted awake by an urgent phone ringing.Roy's voice carried pure panic. "Sheila leaked our core secrets to rival packs. The company's stock price has already crashed 60%!"Derek shot upright, sleep vanishing instantly. "What? Give me details!""She sold everything! Your business partner list, the pack's defensive layout, and even your private schedule!" Roy's voice shook."The Ironblood pack is already mobilizing forces at the border. Dark Night Consortium is launching a hostile takeover of our shares! The board is demanding you return immediately to handle the situation!"Derek gripped his phone. His veins bulged. He never imagined the exiled Sheila would resort to such insane revenge.That foolish woman had actually betrayed the entire pack to get back at him."Book the earliest flight." Derek got up and began packing. "Also, activate the emergency protocols immediately.""Alpha Derek, there's one mor

    "50 thousand dollars. This is the phone number Ms. Vance used when she checked into the hotel."A hotel staff member slipped a note into Derek's hand, greed glinting in his eyes.Derek accepted the note with trembling hands and immediately dialed the number. But all he heard was a cold, automated voice. "The number you have dialed has been disconnected."Derek refused to give up. He called over and over, but got the same result every time. In his desperation, he thought of another approach.Derek began posting an "Alpha's Confession Diary" online every day."Day One. Katherine, I know you can see this. Every day I regret not cherishing you.""Day Ten. I've dealt with Sheila. She'll never appear again. I want you to know how much I hate myself."These confession entries caused a huge reaction online. Many users began sympathizing with Derek, believing his remorse was genuine."This Alpha really seems to love his Luna. Writing a confession diary every day? That takes serious devo
