Tabitha's POV Derek's eyes were full of obvious doubt. I know he was probably wondering why I would sneak out in the middle of the night and avoid being followed by the pack guards if it was just a hospital visit. But at the same time, I could sense the guilt he had because of what Elena had done to me. That made it tough for him to just straight-up grill me like before. He came up to me, looking at me with an unusually gentle gaze, his tone full of concern. "Why did you go out in the middle of the night and shake off the guards? What if danger pops up? Didn't I tell you? It's dangerous out there and you need them with you wherever you go." I chose not to mention anything about Klein. It seemed like Derek picked up on my reluctance and didn't push it. He seemed worried about ticking me off. "I couldn't sleep, so I came out," I replied casually. Derek unconsciously rubbed his thumb, cautiously asking, "I heard that you got in the car with Klein. Are you close with him?" "Not

Derek's POV Late at night in the car, I had my eyes shut tight, lost in my thoughts, wrestling with a ton of mixed feelings. The truth about Elena was finally out in the open, and since Tabitha was the victim, she technically deserved to know everything. But I had no clue how to drop that bomb. "I can't tell her for the time being. I gotta find out what Elena has been through after she left the pack," I sighed. Alvin shook his head in disapproval. "Alpha Derek, I know I shouldn't say this, but these past two years, Tabitha has gone through hell. I know you feel sorry for Elena, and she's been suffering out there. However, it has nothing to do with Tabitha. And it doesn't justify what she's done. The one who owes Elena an apology is the Black Thorn Pack." I snapped my eyes open and locked gazes with Alvin in the rearview mirror. "So what are you suggesting? Should I just go off and kill Elena to make it right? Even if Elena really died, it wouldn't change anything that's alread

Mark's POVI stood face to face with Megan, her words slicing through me, each one a well-aimed jab at my vulnerable core.Her pain and fury were palpable."You don't love me, and I get it, but I always thought time would heal things. I thought one day, you'd eventually fall for me," Megan confessed, her voice a whisper of despair and sorrow."I could've lived with your coldness. I'd raise our girl, make a home, and you'd love her, no doubt," she said, her words a testament to a stubborn hold on the past and a desperate hope for what could be.But then, her tone turned razor-sharp, laced with venom. "But when I watched our girl slowly slip away, I felt nothing but hatred for you. You're so cruel. You'd rather dump all your love on that skank than share a smidgen with me and the kid. So, I swore to make you live with regret, Mark."My chest tightened, a wave of panic washed over me.Her gaze hardened as she continued, "When Holly was pregnant, I lost my baby girl. Why should she live a

Tabitha's POVStanding at the door, I witnessed it all, and a wave of indescribable sarcasm surged within me.What a cold, unfeeling family had Holly married into?In this pack, it seemed only Mark held true care for her well-being.She had poured her heart into caring for Justin, yet he didn't appreciate it at all.But the weight of pain bore heaviest on Mark.If Daphne were to sacrifice her life to save Holly, even if Holly survived, she would never forgive Mark.He had embraced Daphne as his own, and the thought of such a sacrifice was definitely a torment that gnawed at his soul.I wondered what choice would he make.But no matter whom he picked, it felt like a loss, dragging him into an endless pit.A young nurse rushed over, her voice urgent. "Mrs. Sutton has awakened. She's asking for you." Mark spun on his heel, following the nurse with haste, and I trailed closely behind.The attending doctor stood sentry at the door, his tone somber. "Mrs. Sutton desires to leave the ICU and

Tabitha's POVDaphne lost both her parents overnight, and I could feel her pain.She was unable to attend their funeral due to her poor physical condition.Seattle seemed shrouded in a perpetual, sorrowful fog, with even the sunlight losing its warmth.When Alpha Justin learned of the deaths of his son and daughter-in-law, he was overcome with grief and was urgently taken to the hospital.Mark's funeral had to be arranged hastily.Under the gloomy sky, I saw a woman in black, holding a black umbrella, standing in front of his tombstone for a long time.Her face was contorted in a grimace, revealing her anger and deep resentment toward Mark's decision to die with Holly.I learned about her identity from Klein.I also discovered the story of that day from Mark.Megan had always been scheming but gained nothing in the end. She never expected that Mark would demonstrate his love for Holly in such a way.I walked up to her and asked softly, "Is this the ending you wanted?"Megan turned aro
