Tabitha's POV

When Derek and I were in a deadlock, a shifter wheeled Dad in.

Seeing him lying there, I felt endless bitterness in my heart.

He was my only family, always looking out for me like no one else.

My poor old man didn't know that Derek was why he ended up this way.

I forced myself to hide the pain, not wanting him to find out anything.

Derek's big hand enveloped mine, his voice gentle yet making me feel nauseous. "John, I'm sorry for being such a jerk. I was so busy with work that I failed to take care of you and Tabitha."

I felt the heat from his palm, but it didn't bring me any comfort.

Sure enough, Derek caged me again.

He brought me back to Rose Manor, the place where he planted a rose garden just to impress me.

I hadn't been here in two years, and the garden had totally overgrown.

All kinds of roses swayed in the evening breeze as if mocking my past ignorance.

Derek piped up, "Tabitha, from now on, you and Jo

    Derek's POVI wasn't putting on a show.I was going all out to help John get back on his feet because I sincerely felt guilty for what I'd done to John and Tabitha.I had never served anyone before in my life. But when it came to taking care of John, I spared no effort.While working from home, I'd thrown just about all my time into John's recovery process.Over the past week, I'd witnessed John go from barely being able to string a sentence together to being able to slowly but clearly express his thoughts.His cheeks were less pale, too.Right now, he held my hand and said with concern, "Derek, don't just focus on me. You should pay attention to Tabitha, too. Don't ignore her."I assured him, "John, don't worry. I'll spend equal time taking care of you two."Despite Tabitha scoffing at my promise, I was sticking to my guns.Every day, after finishing taking care of John, I headed back to my room to schedule some treatment for Tabith

    Derek's POVFacing Tabitha's disgust and resistance, I held her tight, not wanting to let go."Tabitha, can we be mates again? Let me mark you, okay?" I asked, my voice tinged with desperation."The fuck you just said? Why the hell would I let you mark me? Just seeing you makes me feel sick," Tabitha shot back, her response sharp and straight to the point.I knew she probably thought I was insane, but I just couldn't help it.She added, "Oh, I get it. Now that Daphne's paralyzed, so you don't want her anymore, huh? You truly disgust me."Her accusation felt like a knife, piercing my heart.I knew I had to be honest with her now.The misunderstanding between us was too deep, and I didn't want to lose her again.I wanted to spill the truth, hoping it would win her back.So I furrowed my brows, replying, "It's not like that. About Daphne's matter, I can explain. She's actually..."However, before I could finish speaking, an Omega's

    Derek's POVDaphne had gone through the death of her parents. I guessed she was filled with regret and fear all this time she was in the hospital with the comminuted fracture.She cried and said to me, her voice trembling, "I know I made a lot of mistakes in the past. Please, Derek, I promise it won't happen again. I'll learn to be a good Luna. I won't cause you any more trouble. I ... just want one thing. Please... Please marry me."I remained silent for a long time.Her request was like a heavy stone on my chest, making it difficult for me to breathe.Not getting an answer from me, she continued, "You promised Randall that you'd take care of me forever. You can't abandon me."She played the trump card, and I felt that I had already run out of excuses to turn her down. But when I closed my eyes, all that emerged in my mind was Tabitha's face. After quite a while, I replied somewhat weakly, "Fine. I promise you."Getting an affirmative answer, Daph

    Tabitha's POVThe news of Derek and Daphne's wedding spread quickly and soon became a hot topic discussed by pretty much all the werewolves."Have you heard? Alpha Derek is gonna marry Miss Sutton this month. It's really happening. I heard they've already booked the hotel," an Omega shared the news excitedly."What should Ms. Hartley do? I thought she was the one Alpha Derek loved. He's always by her side," another Omega chimed in."I'm only sharing you with this. Ms. Hartley is his ex-wife. I thought they were gonna remarry. Miss Sutton was the reason why they went through the rejection ceremony back then," one of them said, lowering her voice.I was sitting in the corridor in the rose garden reading a book when I accidentally overheard their idle gossip.I calmly lifted my head and coldly stared at them. "You can gossip however you want. But do it where no one else is around. If my father hears any of this, you're gonna suffer."I warned them and

    Tabitha's POVI almost burst into tears when I heard Dad's words. I had so many things I wanna ask him, for example, did he know anything about my real family at all?But I still chose to swallow back those questions when I saw his worried eyes.I had to be patient. His nerves hadn't fully recovered yet, and he couldn't be stimulated."Dad, I'm fine. I mean it. I just... I've grown up. I'm not that childish anymore," I said to him, trying my best to sound calm so that he wouldn't notice anything different."Alright then. Well, Derek is as good to you as always. I guess there's nothing for me to worry about."Dad reached out and ruffled my hair, his actions filled with paternal love."The doctor says I'll be able to walk around on my own in a week or so." There was a hint of expectation in his tone.In fact, these days, he had been able to take a few steps with the help of external force. The recovery wasn't easy, but he managed to hang in ther

    Derek's POVI smiled helplessly, "John, I did some things that upset her. But you've got nothing to worry about. I'll see to it that she forgives me."Faced with John's concerns, I tried my best to show confidence and determination."I'm glad, Derek. I know you still love her." John's tone was filled with expectations and trust in us.Seeing the confidence on my face, he continued, "It's not easy for a person to meet someone they love and who loves them back, not to mention ending up together. Don't let the chance slip. You two are meant to be together."His tone showed his concern for Tabitha and his expectations of me."I know, John. I'll treat her right forever," I answered firmly, hoping that could reassure him.He smiled gently, "I told you already. You don't have to give me a foot massage at all. You're a pack's Alpha, and if word gets out, others will look down upon you."He always looked out for me and didn't want me to be looked down

    Tabitha's POVI didn't take the retching thing to heart until the following days when I couldn't help but feel nauseous every time I saw the oil on the dishes.And I wasn't just retching anymore. I started to puke.I could no longer remain calm. Werewolves had more acute senses than human beings, and such an abnormal physical reaction greatly attracted my attention.Since I came back from the island, I hadn't taken any meds, and it had been quite a while since my wound hurt.At first, I thought it was just my old problem acting up, but these past few days, my vomiting had become more and more intense, which was kind of like when I was in the early stages of my pregnancy.Realizing that, I felt a chill run through my entire body.After I had a severe hemorrhage and gave birth to that stillborn child, the doctor told me that my body had been severely damaged, and it'd be very difficult for me to get pregnant again.I hadn't really taken care of

    Tabitha's POV I quickly put my finger to my lips to stop the Omega from talking. And She shut up at once. "What's your name?" I asked. "Joanna Foster. I go by Joanna," she answered obediently. "What do you do?" She replied, "I majored in horticulture. I've been here taking care of the rose garden ever since I graduated from college." The look in her eyes was very pure, and after these days, I already had a pretty good picture of the personalities of those servants in the rose garden. While others were gossiping, Joanna focused on her job dutifully, never joining in on the chatter. Thus, I figured she could be trusted. "Can you do me a favor?" "Ms. Hartley, you don't have to be so formal. You are the employer, so you can tell me whatever you want me to do. I'm just glad I can be of help." I then leaned in closer and whispered something in her ear. Then I added, "Keep it to yourself. You think you can manage that?" "Sure, but
