Derek's POV

Joanna 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."

"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

    Derek's POVEver since I learned about Tabitha's pregnancy, I had been in constant agony.I suppressed the beast within me hard, afraid that my loss of control would harm her.However, the anger and jealousy in my chest continued to grow, almost reaching the point of exploding.I asked myself over and over again, "Why am I not the father?"If she were pregnant with my baby, I wouldn't have to suffer all this."However, no matter how brutal it was, the truth was the truth. 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

    Tabitha's POVAfter the farce made by Derek, he didn't appear for a couple of daysI became more and more uneasy, always feeling like maybe he sensed something was off.Could it be that he figured out I was pregnant?But I doubted that. If he had known about my pregnancy, why would he remain silent and even make sure that I had my meals on time?Recently, my meals became more and more nutritious and every dish seemed to have been carefully selected. But again, maybe that was just my illusion.The meals contained fresh, high-protein ingredients, such as grilled chicken breasts, fish, and a lot of veggies.I asked Joanna about the change in my meals, and she told me she had instructed the kitchen to prepare them this way.She said that I suffered a lot carrying the baby and that the morning sickness was so intense. So I gotta eat right.Without Derek around, Rose Manor was eerily quiet every day, but I couldn't shake this feeling that a sto

    Third person's POVSince Derek took Tabitha and John back in a hurry from the island, he hadn't paid much attention to Klein.According to Alvin, Klein had already returned to Canada and showed no intention to come back to Seattle to steal Tabitha away from Derek.That was to say, to Klein, Tabitha was just a temporary fling or a plaything—no feelings involved whatsoever.At the realization, Derek was both angry and upset.Tabitha was the love of his life, yet apparently, she didn't receive the treatment she deserved from the father of her baby.Derek was confused about how to deal with Tabitha. These days, even though he tried to convince himself to accept the baby, he just couldn't.No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bring himself to treat the illegitimate child as his own.Since Tabitha had already been pregnant for about twenty days, she could use an abortion very soon.But she wasn't in good health, looking way too frail.

"Tabitha, don't worry. I won't do anything to you. I came here today to tell you that, Miss A, the musician you like is having a concert. I bought tickets. How about we go together tomorrow?"Tabitha shot me a skeptical stare as if doubting whether I was plotting something again.I understood her reaction. After all, I had caused her too much harm."Tabitha, I didn't mean anything else. Miss A hasn't shown up in public in recent years, and I know you have always been a huge fan. This concert could possibly be her farewell performance, and I don't want you to miss it."Speaking of which, Tabitha hadn't been to any concerts for two and a half years.The last time she listened to live music was the time when we were at a music festival. We were we

    Tabitha's POVJoanna stood behind me, looking curious as I hesitated for a long time.She shot me a confused look and asked, "Ms. Hartley, anything wrong with these clothes?""No, Joanna, the clothes are nice. It's just that they remind me of my past, and it stings a bit," I replied softly, trying to conceal the turmoil in my heart.Joanna had no clue about the history between Derek and me, so obviously, she couldn't understand how I was feeling right now.To her, I might have just been an unfortunate lady. But to me, those were unforgettable memories."Why don't you pick one for me?" I averted my gaze from those once familiar clothes, which could only make me feel awkward now.They were a cruel reminder, telling me again and again that I was no longer the carefree Luna, but a woman who had been tortured.Joanna stood in front of the wardrobe, glancing through the clothes while muttering, "Ms. Hartley, you have a great figure and good looks.

She was like sunshine, happy all the time as if even the end of the world would not bring her down."Just like me, all you need to do is lift the corners of your mouth gently. Your baby inside your belly will also be happy when you're in a better mood."Joanna beamed, her smile pure and sincere.Maybe it was her warm smile, or maybe her mentioning the baby cheered me up. Unconsciously, I placed my palm on my belly, and a small smile crept onto my face without me even realizing it.Joanna, noticing it, jumped in joy."I knew it, Ms. Hartley. You look absolutely stunning when you smile. You are the most beautiful and exquisite person I've ever seen. If you were to enter showbiz, you would surely become a big star," she exclaimed, her tone dripping w
