Derek's POV

I pinched the bridge of my nose, lowered my head, and said in a low voice, "I never wanna hurt her again, neither physically nor mentally."

"But finally, you've got a chance to cut things off with Miss Sutton. I'm afraid there will never be such a good reason again," suggested Alvin.

In others' eyes, it seemed obvious what I should do, as Mark's offer would only do me good. But I didn't say yes.

On the contrary, I turned him down at the risk of offending him.

"It's never the Amber's Eye Pack that forces me to be together with Daphne.

"It's my promise to Randall. I promised him I'd take care of Daphne for him."

"Alpha Derek..."

"Enough. I want you to do something for me. Tabitha can't wait to be back, and I don't have time to deal with them slowly."

Alvin gave a reluctant nod. "Yes, Alpha Derek."

I looked out the window at the pitch-black night, thinking, 'Tabitha, I'd make things right for you and get back what was yours.

Oh Mark is very sneaky! Derek had nothing to do with this. Now he’s being blamed??? I hope Tabitha finds out the truth.

    Tabitha's POVSitting in the helicopter, I heard nothing except for the rotor roar outside the window. The cabin was dead quiet.Perhaps feeling uneasy because of the silence, Mark finally spoke up, "I don't get it. Blood ritual is one of the traditions of us werewolves. We have strong self-healing abilities, so losing a bit of blood isn't a big deal."Besides, Holly is your mom. Is giving her a hand that difficult for you?"Hearing his words, I couldn't help but sneer.Crystal growled in my mind, "They've hurt us!""Yes. I won't forget that," I replied inwardly, kinda reminding myself too.Then I turned and looked at Mark, scoffing, "Will you be this forgiving towards a werewolf who wants you dead?"Mark froze.I continued, "The second Holly chose to save Daphne instead of me, she's no longer my mom. As I said, I owe her nothing now."Mark opened his mouth as if trying to say something.But I turned away, ignoring him completel

    Tabitha's POV"Isn't it obvious? A woman like you doesn't deserve his love at all. I want you to see with your own eyes how he pushes you from heaven straight to hell.""To frame me, you went as far as killing Elena?! She didn't do anything wrong. Who gave you the right to end her life?!" I spat, fuming.The woman's eyes flickered.Although Crystal had been put to sleep, I could feel her wolf getting restless."You're so noisy. You know what? I changed my mind," she snorted.She put away the blade and took out another syringe she had prepared."Look, this is a newly developed poison. Just one milliliter, and you'll bite the dust. Don't worry. It won't hurt much. In less than 30 seconds, you'll kiss the world goodbye for good."You ought to feel lucky. You're the first ever werewolf who has the privilege to test this wolfsbane potion," she said, looking down at me.Wolfsbane potion? It reminded me of the wolfsbane smeared on my abdominal w

    Derek's POVI was now in a forested suburb of Seattle.This place was once set for development, but after the locals moved out, nothing ever got built.Over time, it just turned into a ghost town—totally abandoned.In the pouring rain, I saw some old rundown buildings and a couple of crows standing on old power poles.I didn't come here for travel, obviously. I was leading the shifters of my pack and the mercenary squad I sponsored to the den of Poison and Wolf Shadow.Gunfire was blasting away, totally wrecking the peace in these woods.Unbeknownst to them, we had this base surrounded.In the quiet forest, flames were flickering everywhere.The shifters of the Black Thorn Pack had been through the Gamma's hardcore training. On the contrary, while those rogues from Poison and Wolf Shadow were shifters as well, they were mainly engaged in research.They had little experience in combat.Soon, they scattered and fled.Th

    Derek's POVI was already soaked by the heavy rain, but Rolf still held the umbrella over my head."Alpha Derek, it's raining hard. Besides, Tabitha is with Mr. Sutton. Shall we go back?"I lowered my head and slowly said, "Dig up the coffin."Rolf replied out of habit, "OK."He was stunned for a whole five seconds before he realized what he had heard. "What?"With a loud sound, the thunder rumbled through the sky as the lightning shone on everything. I grabbed the edge of the tombstone as I exerted more strength, saying word by word, "I said, dig up the coffin."Rolf stuttered."A-Alpha Derek, really? It's in the middle of the night. It's a bit ... inappropriate, don't you think?"I didn't bother to explain to him. Rolf was never as clever as Alvin."Get someone to dig the grave and open the coffin. Now!" I ordered with authority."Got it." Rolf jumped into action immediately.I wasn't gonna wait and do nothing. When my me

    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 is she?" "We haven't seen Elena in years. We decided it was Elena just because of her face as well as the DNA report." Rolf thought for a while and added, "Maybe she didn't look like Elena at all. She went through plastic surgery to change her looks just to fool us." I sat aside, listening to their conversation while saying nothing. Rolf glanced at me. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "So, we've got good news and bad news. The good news is that Elena isn't dead. She's been taking care of Alpha Derek all these years disguised as a janitor. "The bad news is that Alpha Derek thought she was dead and has taken it out on the Silver Moon Pack and Tabitha." My mind was in turmoil.

    Tabitha's POV"Mark, you look serious. It ... didn't work?"He sighed and then handed me the paper bag. "See for yourself."I didn't know what he meant. Something told me it wasn't just about the effect of the potion.Did he know my wound wouldn't heal?Even so, he didn't have to look so stern.Puzzled, I slowly opened the paper bag. There were two reports inside, and the first was the results of the treatment.Sure enough, the potion made from my blood did not work.That made sense.After all, that treatment method was very ancient and lacked practice.I already knew the result from the look on Mark's face.Then I picked up the second report, which was a DNA test report.I frowned, not knowing why he would conduct this test.But as my eyes slid down the page and spotted my name and Holly's name, I was dumbfounded.The results showed that we weren't a match!I was so caught up in Elena's stuff that I never ev

    Tabitha's POVI looked up and glanced at Mark, who had pulled a long face and said nothing.Then I shifted my gaze to Holly. She was still immersed in her own memories without noticing our expressions."I've never paid attention to your performance in school, and I've never cared about what you liked. I was away for years, and I've never called you. Not even once. I left you behind while you were so little. I bet you hate me, right?""I..." I sniffed, hesitating whether to tell her the truth.Mark sighed, "Holly, calm down. What I'm about to say is very important."I wiped away my tears and reached out to dry Holly's face.Holly blinked in confusion. "What is it exactly?"Mark said concisely, "The bad news is that the potion made with Tabitha's blood didn't work.""I see. I was prepared for that," she replied, not looking fazed.Mark continued, "And the good news is, Tabitha isn't your daughter. Your biological daughter is out there

    Tabitha's POVThe storm had subsided a lot today, and it seemed the clouds were dispersing.I dialed Jasper's number, wanting to ask him about Matthew.In fact, whether John was my dad or not didn't matter. He had been nothing but good to me and given me all the fatherly love I needed.Perhaps even my biological dad wouldn't treat me as well as John did.Sadly, the call wouldn't get through, which made me a bit uneasy.Last night, that woman mentioned something about Matthew wanting to get revenge on Derek, and now I couldn't reach Jasper? It didn't seem like a coincidence.My fingers hovered over Derek's number, but after a long time, I still didn't press the call button.I had no evidence to prove Elena wasn't dead, and I knew him well enough to know he might blow up before I even finished talking.Forget it. I'd go confront him after I snagged solid proof.I ordered a plate of spaghetti. After drinking half a cup of coffee and pay
