All Chapters of Alpha's Wife Hunt: Chapter 861 - Chapter 870

Daphne lunged forward hysterically, tumbling from her wheelchair into the filthy slush.She reached out with hands that were turning purple from the cold, screaming at the receding taillights in despair. "Derek, come back! Please don't leave me! I'm sorry... I'm so sorry!"Calvin appeared behind her like a ghost lurking in the shadows.He leaned down and scooped up the broken woman. Pressing his lips to her ear, his voice was low and malicious. "Darling, why can't you ever learn?""No! Let me go! Calvin, get your filthy hands off me!"Calvin let out a dark, demonic chuckle. "You don't want me to touch you? Who are you waiting for—Derek? Do you really think you matter as much as a single fingernail of Tabitha's to him? To him, you're just a piece of pack trash. Even if you stripped naked and showed up at his door, he'd think you were too disgusting to look at."Daphne let out a piercing shriek as he ripped away her last shred of dignity

Tabitha sped to her private villa.The moment she pushed the door open, the living room looked like a slaughterhouse.Blood had soaked into the expensive light-colored wool rug, and the air was thick with the sharp tang of iron and the decaying scent of a dying werewolf.The injuries were more fatal than she had imagined.Lucian was slumped on the floor, his back against the sofa.His pupils were already starting to dilate; he was clinging to his last breath through pure willpower alone."Sorry... I messed up your rug," he said, a self-deprecating smirk tugging at his lips.Seeing him covered in blood, Tabitha's eyes instantly burned.She rushed forward and knelt beside him. "What the hell did you do? How did you get hurt like this?"Lucian gave a helpless, broken smile. "That's classified. Can't tell you."A few days ago, he had mentioned a high-risk mission.Even though Lucian protected her, he never let

It took her over two hours of scrubbing with heavy-duty chemicals to clean every inch of the floor. After that, she prepped some high-calorie liquid nutrients for Lucian.Only after confirming he was stable did she finally let out a breath."Next time you take a suicide mission like this, could you give me a heads-up? You scared the hell out of me."Lucian cracked a weak smile. "If I'd actually died on that table, would you have missed me?""Don't be stupid. We might not be blood, but you're the closest thing to a family I've got. I—"She was cut off by the sharp buzz of the video doorbell.The screen lit up, showing someone at the front gate of her hidden villa.Who could be here now?She had zero social life in Seattle and hadn't ordered any food or packages.Tabitha tapped the screen, and a very familiar face appeared.It was Derek.How did he track her down so fast?"It's Derek. I'll go dea

This was exactly how he used to trample on her. It was the heaviest curse in the laws of the pack: karma.Tabitha leaned across the table, her cold fingertips tracing his jawline with playful indifference. "Derek, while I still have a shred of primal attraction to your body, you'd better start playing by my rules."She was like a beautiful venomous snake lurking in the dark, slowly coiling around him. She whispered into his ear, her breath cold, "Otherwise, I can cut this absurd connection whenever I feel like it. Do you follow me?"Derek had no comeback. Once you become the desperate, weaker side in the game of emotions, you lose all leverage—and your dignity. Yet, this total imbalance was a punishment he accepted gladly.A helpless, bitter smile tugged at the corner of his mouth. "But Tabitha, I didn't come here tonight for my own desires. I'm here to ask for a favor."Tabitha pulled back and sat down lazily, propping her chin on her hand. Her gaze was mocking. "What kind of trouble

Tabitha gave Misha's rage-distorted face a cold, dismissive glance before calmly closing the car door. "Since Miss Holmes doesn't trust me, I'll see myself out."She started to pull back into the seat.Derek knew her personality too well. He wasn't about to force her into anything she didn't want to do, so he didn't move to stop her.But Alban panicked. He shoved his hand against the door to keep it from closing. "Dr. Vanessa, don't mind the brat. Lycan Algernon is only alive because of those machines. I'm asking you personally—save him. For me."Tabitha thought back to the help Alban had given her when she first left. He had been a close friend of her late mentor, after all.She took a deep breath and stepped out of the car.The moment she did, every medical professional in the hallway stared at her. Their eyes were full of genuine respect. Whispers rippled through the crowd."Look, that's Dr. Vanessa... she's even younger than
