Tabitha's POV

With Gloria covering my back, I nervously steered into the ultrasound room.

On the surface, it looked like I accompanied her for the examination, but in reality, it was me lying on the bed, unbuttoning my clothes.

The female doctor was very gentle. While checking on the baby, she reassured us, "Don't worry, the baby is in safe hands."

Gloria chuckled from the side, "I owe Alpha Obadiah one more favor now."

I felt grateful knowing how much effort she put into helping me.

As the cold probe slid over my lower abdomen, I felt both nervous and anxious.

I hadn't been very well for the past six months, and I even underwent a treatment six months ago. I was kinda worried that might have an impact on the baby.

"Doctor, how is my baby?" I asked, anxiety creeping in.

The doctor chuckled and replied, "At this early stage, it's hard to tell much, but from what I can see now, the gestational sac is of normal size, and there is no sign of

    Leopold's POVIf these words were coming from Gloria, I'd probably think she was just spouting nonsense.After all, she always did such things, and I could hardly believe her.But when Tabitha stood there with her refined elegance and charm, every word she spoke sounded so credible.She was completely different from Gloria. She was a well-educated lady while Gloria...Well, I'd just keep that thought to myself."Ms. Hartley, you are flattering me. I've heard Gloria mention you before, too. Finally, I have the honor to meet you today. Your elegance and virtuousness really stand out," I smiled.Then I teased Gloria, "It's hard to imagine how you became friends with such a rude woman like Gloria."Gloria glared at me, seemingly displeased with my backhanded compliment.I then walked up to Tabitha and extended my hand, saying, "My name is Leopold Sowell. Nice to meet you."Tabitha shot me an embarrassed glance."Alpha Leopold, I'm s

    Tabitha's POVGloria came rushing over, breathing heavily, and shoved the folic acid into my hands. "Don't forget to put this into the vitamin bottle."I gratefully accepted it, feeling touched by her thoughtfulness. "Thanks," I murmured."C'mon, we're BFF. You better deliver a healthy baby." She patted my shoulder, her voice bubbling with excitement for the new life on the way.I nodded, yet suddenly felt a bit worried. "Did anyone see it?" I asked."Chill, I'm quick on my feet. This packaging is colorful and misleading. Alpha Leopold hasn't even found his mate yet. I guess he has no idea what this is," she confidently replied.I didn't have much of an impression of that guy, so I guessed he didn't know Derek. Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief."Good. Don't always work overtime. Remember to have some rest," I reminded her."Sure, you gotta take good care of yourself too. Once I'm on break, I'll swing by to see you. If you need anything, ju

    Derek's POVTabitha instinctively rested her hand on her belly, but then she quickly pulled it back, as if fearing that I would notice something.She had no idea that this move just made it all the more suspicious.As an Alpha, my observation skills were sharper than most, especially when it came to my mate, even though she was my ex-mate.I walked closer to her, sensing her nerves.I could tell her heartbeat was racing and her breath hitched, as these were the physiological responses she couldn't hide.When my hand brushed her back, she tensed up like a deer caught in headlights."Something's off with her emotions," Leo chimed in my mind.As my wolf, he was always able to perceive subtle emotional changes.But even without his reminder, I could feel Tabitha wasn't her usual self.After all, we were once mates, and such a profound connection couldn't be easily severed."What are you doing?" Tabitha shot out, her voice dripping w

    Derek's POVI threw in a bit of Alpha aura in my words.Joanna's knees buckled, and she dropped to the floor with a thud. "Yes, Alpha Derek, I'll tell you everything!" Her reaction caught me off guard. I hadn't even started putting any real pressure on her yet."Speak," I ordered sharply."I felt it was a pity to throw away the trimmed roses from the garden, so I sold them for 2 dollars each in the evening. I didn't mean to do it, I've been strapped for cash and my grandma's sick. I'm sorry, Alpha Derek, I won't do it again."Joanna confessed incoherently, tears streaming down her face.I frowned, surprised that she actually confessed so soon.But this trivial matter wasn't what I really wanted to know. "Is that all you want to say?"My tone revealed obvious impatience.Joanna wiped away her tears, adding, "No, there's more. I have to confess. Last time when I was trimming, my hands were shaking, and I accidentally cut the heart-shaped on

    Derek's POVJoanna shot me a weird look, as if she was puzzled.I knew why she was feeling that way. My concern for Tabitha these days was evident to everyone.Even though I was about to marry Daphne, my care for Tabitha was genuine, and everyone in Rose Manor could tell.But here I was, totally clueless about how she was handling her pregnancy.Joanna wasn't a long-standing member of the Black Thorn Pack.So she didn't really know the history between me and Tabitha."I heard Ms. Hartley say that she had no idea what she was doing with her first pregnancy. She had morning sickness for three months and the fetus seemed to be in a bit unstable condition. In the early stages of pregnancy, she had to get shots to keep the baby safe every day. My mom had to do that too, and it hurt like hell."Joanna's words hit me like a punch in the gut. I had never thought that Tabitha would go through such pain."However, Ms. Hartley was really excited abo

    Derek's POVI have heard countless advice that I should have treated Tabitha better.However, the current situation was that I have put her in such a predicament. Guilt and a sense of powerlessness filled my heart.But I was aware that now was not the time to indulge in self-blame."Okay, I got it. She holds a grudge against me, so she doesn't want me to know about her pregnancy. You don't need to say much. Just take good care of her. If anything happens to her, let me know immediately. Try to fulfill all her needs at Rose Manor."I gave instructions to Joanna.As Tabitha's personal Omega, she was an important source for me to know Tabitha's condition."Okay, Alpha Derek, I understood," Joanna responded simply.She did not know Tabitha's secret, nor did she realize that she had unintentionally revealed too much."You can leave now," I said to Joanna, and I stayed alone in the study, with my hand on my forehead, filled with conflict and st

    Tabitha's POVDerek suddenly appeared in my room, acting strangely.I couldn't help but frown, wondering what was wrong with this man and why he came here acting so weird.I stretched out my left hand, wanting to push away his body, which made me suffocate. However, when my fingers touched his body, I felt a damp liquid.No, it was blood.As a werewolf, I was very sensitive to the smell of blood."What's going on?" I immediately asked my wolf in my mind."There were no other scents of wolves, so he didn't experience an attack," Crystal calmly responded to me.I turned on the light and looked at his snow-white shirt, which was covered in crimson blood. The blood was still oozing out.How could he have turned out like this in just a short while, even though he hadn't even left the villa?"Who did it?" I asked.Derek, however, didn't care at all and instead reached out his hand to touch my face."Tabitha, I hurt your hand. I a

I had to face it.Alvin helped me bandage the wound on my arm while comforting me. "Alpha Derek, calm down and please don't harm yourself again."I responded with a bitter smile, "Alvin, what would you do if you were in my shoes?"He remained silent for a moment and then said, "Alpha Derek, I don't have a mate yet. Thus, it's impossible for me to imagine what you're suffering now. I'm sorry that I can't be of any help."I was like a fatigued driver on a highway, whi

Noah is taking Ayla away, and Lucian's direction also leads to the island. He plans to take Tabitha away."Derek, with his hands behind his back and a furrowed brow, spoke with a melancholic expression, "Lucian intends to take more than just Ayla—Tabitha as well. She has always sought opportunities to leave me, and this presents her with an excellent chance.""What should we do? Should we stop him now?

Tabitha's original goal had been to find her two children and Jasper.The children were found, but Jasper was without a trace.However, she couldn't search aimlessly without a target.Thinking of Derek's anxious appearance last night, it was clear he still had feelings for her.Gloria's text warning Tabitha to be careful of Derek came to Tabitha's mind again.Tabitha felt she had overlooked some subtle details. What exactly had she missed?It seemed a key point was missing, and once found, it would connect all the events."I don't know. I just wanted to find the children, but I didn't expect to court death. And Derek's attitude towards me is ambiguous. Outside this cabin, I don't know what awaits me," Tabitha said, her face full of entanglement.Seeing her struggle, Lucian took a big gulp of mineral water and mustered the courage to say, "Have you severed ties with him?"Tabitha nodded,

Ayla is still on the island. Tabitha will go to see her."Rolf nodded in agreement, "Understood."Derek added with caution, "Remember, Lucian has a strong ability to detect surveillance, so do not get too close."Rolf responded, "Yes, Alpha Derek. We will handle it immediately."Turning to Alvin, Derek instructed, "Investigate the identities of those deceased men thoroughly."Derek pondered whether Tabitha's survival had been leaked, perhaps when she was seen on the boat.The assailants had been ruthless, and if not for Lucian's timely arrival, Tabitha could have been in grave danger.

You need to come see him."Tabitha was still trying to make sense of Derek's appearance at the bar when she heard about Wilmot's predicament, and her heart immediately filled with worry.She quickly asked, "What happened to him?"Forrest explained, "Wilmot was already ill recently, and he drank a lot tonight. He's suffered from alcohol poisoning and has been taken to the hospital. He keeps asking to see you, Ms. Hartley. Where are you?

Was he a friend or foe?The man removed his hat, revealing the distinctive totem mask beneath.Tabitha stared in disbelief and uttered, "Lucian, why are you here?""Long story. Come with me," Lucian said, grabbing Tabitha's hand and leading her away.They didn't get far before Tabitha glanced back to see Derek and Leopold rushing out of a bar together.Surprise washed over Tabitha.

    Third person's POVLeopold carefully compared the photos. Although the person in the photos was dressed differently and had a different appearance, the body shape and the action of holding things with the left hand were identical.Derek became alert, thinking to himself, "People like us are more sensitive than ordinary people. Such photos wouldn't catch the attention of most, but I've noticed something.""Where's the negative?" Derek asked."I'll have it sent over right away," Leopold replied."And Tabitha?" Derek inquired again."Don't worry, she followed me to the bar. She's in the lobby outside. I have my bodyguards keeping an eye on her," Leopold said.Tabitha had been following Leopold for several days, and Derek, concerned about his own people being exposed, asked Leopold's men to watch her.She maintained a simple daily routine without any issues.However, the photos now revealed to Derek that someone was tracking

    Third person's POVAlpha Leopold took out a sapphire necklace from his pocket and placed it around Gloria's neck, his face instantly returning to that tender expression."Look, it suits you so well. Don't worry, whoever harmed our child will never see the sun again. Be good, take care of yourself, and don't think about anything else," he said.Gloria's face was devoid of any color, her back already soaked with cold sweat, chilling her. Cold sweat also beaded on her forehead, trickling down her cheeks.Her body trembled, filled with fear and despair, unsure of how to face this mad and cruel man.As a mother who had experienced the pain of losing a child twice, Tabitha was heartbroken and worried when she learned about what had happened to Gloria.Given Gloria's character, if her relationship with Leopold was normal, she would have informed Tabitha even if she had lost the child.Her silence largely indicated that her relationship with

    Third person's POVAt this moment, Gloria finally understood the difficult situation Tabitha had faced before—the helplessness and confusion, as if she were trapped in a dark abyss, unable to find even a glimmer of hope.What puzzled her was that Alpha Leopold must have known about Tabitha's return to the States. Given his relationship with Derek, he couldn't possibly not inform him.If Derek had learned that Tabitha was alive, it should have been a momentous occasion for him. How could he allow Tabitha to drift alone outside?Could it be that he had truly come to terms with it and decided to let go completely?However, Gloria preferred to believe in the saying, "A leopard can't change its spots."She felt that even if Derek seemed inactive now, it was highly likely that he was secretly plotting a larger scheme, merely the calm before the storm.After hanging up the phone, Tabitha's eyes flashed with
