Derek put his hands on my shoulders and said, "Tabitha, Jasper approached you with an agenda. Remember that night on the ship when he was drugged? I checked the surveillance footage afterward. You know what? He saw Lyrique spiked the beverage, but he still drank it. Why do you think that was?""So, you knew something was off that night?" I asked."Yeah. I didn't wanna spook him, so I decided to be patient and play the long game. Although he was cautious, I still managed to find something."I discovered Poison and Wolf Shadow's underground base, so I took my men there, wanting to take them all down. He got mad, so he shot me.""Wait,are you saying he's a member of Poison and Wolf Shadow?""Yep."What the woman's assistant said the other night rang out in my mind again: Matthew had left to settle the score with Derek.So, the person I was looking for was right under my nose the whole time. Matthew was Jasper. He had been lurking by

Derek, who had been prepared to let her go, caught a glint of ruthlessness in his eye at Tabitha's words, "But Tabitha, I never intended to let you go."This time, without a moment's hesitation, he took her.Tabitha shook her head, pleading, "You can't, Derek, you can't..."Derek's smile was cold and resolute. "Our bond isn't so easily severed. If it breaks, I'll just mend it."As he straightened his back, Tabitha nearly cried out.Derek kissed her skin with a mix of cruelty and tenderness. "I said it before—I'll never let go unless I die. Be good, control your voice, or I'll have to take responsibility if someone hears," he murmured.Tabitha pounded his chest in desperation. "Bastard... ah..."The couple nearby, after nearly two hours of entanglement, had finally fallen silent, rustling as they dressed."I thought I heard something. Did you?" the woman's hoarse voice asked.Tabitha, terrified at being discovered,

Derek whispered into her ear, "Tabitha, why can you forgive everyone else but be so cruel to me?"Tabitha stared into his eyes and said firmly, "Don't you know why?"Derek sighed and rested his head on her neck. "The past can't be changed, and the hurt is already done. What more can I do to make it up to you? I only have this life to offer. If that's what you want, take it."She had never doubted that Derek would go to extremes for her—even when he detested her, he had followed her off the ledge.In moments of danger, he was always the one to shield her.Yet this same man, who had shown her such unparalleled care, had also wounded her the deepest."I don't want your life. From now on, we're done," she declared.Derek gave a bitter laugh. "Tabitha, you've already taken my life."Years of longing had drained him.With one sentence, two layers of meaning, he shattered the frigid silence between them.His fingers delved beneath her loose top.Tabitha bit her lip. "You dare to touch me, an

Tabitha's fingers curled tightly in Derek's shirt. "So betrayal is unforgivable no matter the reason," she said softly, the words cutting through the silence.The question was not aimed at others but at herself."Yes, betrayal is betrayal. Think about how you felt when you thought I had touched Daphne. How would you feel if you were that paralyzed husband, lying helplessly in bed? Regardless of the reason, the betrayer can never be excused," Derek replied.Tabitha's mind raced back to that night with Wilmot.The drugs had clouded her memory, but the marks on her body the next day told the story of their reckless encounter.She, too, was a betrayer.Derek, however, had no such thoughts. In his heart, he was Wilmot, and Tabitha had never truly betrayed him.He was speaking of the woman, unaware that Tabitha was taking his words to heart.Derek sensed Tabitha's shifting emotions and assumed she was upset with his words.His

"Imagine if someone sees us," the woman whispered."At this hour? Who's around?" the man replied. "Besides, who'd bother watching such a thing?"The village was small, and Tabitha recognized most of its inhabitants. But the couple before her were neither married nor lovers.The woman was the sister-in-law of the man, whose husband had been paralyzed in a fall two years prior.Unable to bear her loneliness, she had taken up with her brother-in-law.In the city, affairs were common—discovery might lead to divorce. But in the village, divorce was unheard of; if discovered, her punishment would be death.That's why they sought privacy in this secluded spot.People usually returned home by this time, leaving only Tabitha and Derek, who were clearly not thinking straight.Derek began to speak, "Tabitha—"Before he could finish, Tabitha clamped a hand over his mouth.Derek had only recently arrived and was un

Before Alma got to know Derek, her initial impression of him was shaped by labels like domineering, assertive, heartless, and a scoundrel.Now, after spending time with him, those labels had transformed into diligent, strong, and robust.He didn't seem as detestable as she had imagined, especially since he made no effort to hide his love for Tabitha, following her around like a devoted, loving dog. This sincerity led Alma to consider matchmaking for the two.As a reward for Spike's daily help, Alma personally treated his foot, determined to heal it.Derek, on the other hand, sat on a stool, husking corn that had just been harvested.Tabitha enjoyed fresh corn, particularly the sweet and fragrant kind straight from the field.She sat on a small bridge, her legs swinging as she observed the scene.Derek's clothes were drenched in sweat, and beads of perspiration dotted his forehead.After treating Spike, Alma pulled Tabitha aside

Derek's heart raced at Tabitha's sudden question. Admitting his regained sight in this situation was akin to signing his own death warrant.Derek, of course, wouldn't admit it!"Tabitha, I wish I could see too, just to stop being a burden to you," he said with a pained expression."Don't move. I'll get you some paper," she replied."Alright," he replied.He saw Tabitha wrap herself in a bathrobe, grab a dagger from under the pillow, and head his way.She was eyeballin' him like she could see right through him.Derek could tell she was suspicious.If she found out he'd been faking blindness, he was a goner.His heart was in his throat, but he didn't show it.Letting the blood drip, he asked like a dope, "Tabitha, where are you? Did you come back?"Tabitha walked up to him, put down the tissue, and said casual-like, "I'm here."Suddenly, she yanked the knife out. The blade flew past Derek's eye, stoppi
