Derek's POV

When I saw Tabitha, who was in a sorry state, anger and pity surged in my heart.

Tabitha cried so hard that she couldn't even speak. How could she even get checked out like this?

And how could I trust that doctor when she hurt Tabitha before the surgery even started?

Dr. Palmer stammered as she tried to explain herself.

"Alpha Derek, it was all a misunderstanding. I thought this young lady was... Well..."

But seeing her panicked expression and shifty eyes next to Tabitha's pitiful look made it clear to me that her excuses were just an attempt to dodge responsibility.

I would never allow anyone to harm Tabitha. This doctor must pay for what she did.

"No, you weren't like this earlier! Alpha Derek, she slapped me first. It's her fault," yelled Dr. Palmer.

Tabitha sobbed softly, "But don't you know why I did so? We don't even know each other, yet you called me a slut and said I'd slept with loads of guys. And you even claimed tha

What I want to know is why their marriage was kept like a secret, he keeps her around never letting her go so others think she's a whore and he ofcourse gets no blame from anyone or that whore Daphne who was actually trying to get him into bed while married to Tabitha gets away with everything too.

What I don’t like is how it switched to like she is the cheater. Why should she fight to prove she didn’t sleep around? I understand she loves her father but she needs to put herself first and disappear. She went from mate and Luna to a side piece.

    Tabitha's POVI felt zero joy, just fixing him with my cold stare, snapping, "As much as I hate to admit it, you're my kids' father indeed."Derek's face lit up with a mix of happiness and shock in an instant.Seeing that, I scoffed, "And you almost killed them just now. There's no way I'm letting someone like you be their dad.""Tabitha, I'm sorry." Here he was. The same useless apology again."Not every 'sorry' can just swap for a 'no worries,' Derek. Look at my face! This slap wasn't from her; it was from you!" I shot back, leaning back in my seat, feeling completely drained.After I got pregnant, my body had been through the wringer, and all that struggling took a toll on me too.Right now, I was just so tired.Since Derek seemed to have believed my words, I decided to stay silent, not feeling like explaining any more than that.He opened his mouth like he wanted to say something but then stopped himself, taking in my exhausted face b

    Derek's POVWhen I arrived at the baby care store, I finally got a taste of what Tabitha must've felt back then.Kyrian was my first child. Logically speaking, I should have cared for him more than anyone else. However, at that time, Elena's death became the biggest rift between us.Looking at all those tiny and colorful clothes, I finally understood why Tabitha had so much to say back then.No wonder her eyes would shine with excitement whenever she talked about our baby.Everything for babies could melt your heart. They were so small and soft, yet they could smooth out all the rough edges in life."Wow, Alpha Derek, check out this little horse. It's so cute! And this toy gun too."It was funny how Rolf seemed to be even more thrilled than me.The salesperson on the side rushed over to my side after taking a glance at my outfit. Well, it made sense. Just the cost of the watch on my wrist could probably buy out this place with sone change left

    Joanna's POVAfter what happened at the hospital, Tabitha seemed to become a total zombie, looking lifeless and dejected.Looking at her, I felt so worried.The spark in her eyes brought about by her pregnancy had vanished. Even though the swelling on her face had gone down a bit, she looked pale as a ghost.She just sat quietly by the window, staring blankly at the rain outside, completely zoned out."Tabitha, you must be starving. The kitchen just made spaghetti with meat sauce. You told me you wanted it a few days ago, didn't you? Why don't you give it a try and see if it's what you're craving?" I asked softly."Just leave it there. I'm not hungry," she replied flatly, no emotion in her voice."You've gotta eat something—even if it's just for the kids."I knew that it was the only topic that could persuade her to do something.Seeing her nod, I quickly handed her the fork and knife."Eat while it's hot!

    Tabitha's POVAlthough I managed to keep my twins, I felt like Derek took away the last bit of light in my world.He already knew he was their father. From now on, he would definitely not let me go.But I had already grown tired of this game.I felt like I was trapped under a huge net, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't escape.I didn't know how to seek revenge, nor could I see any glimmer of hope.I couldn't do anything while I was pregnant. I could only rub my belly over and over again.Every day, I prayed to the Moon Goddess that I could safely give birth to my babies.I was getting more and more depressed, even talking less to Dad.His legs had gotten a lot better, and he could now walk freely around the house without needing assistance.It was already summer, and it was getting hotter. I was dozing off on a lounge chair under the shade of a tree.When I woke up, I found that someone had covered me with a blanket. Da

    Tabitha's POVDad's face went from astonishment to shock and finally settled on a happy emotion. "Really?"I watched Dad's reaction and had some guesses in my mind.Although I didn't know his exact thoughts, from the change in his expression, I could tell that he might have thought that the conflict between Derek and I had reached a dead end.Now that he knew I was pregnant, his attitude changed. It made me realize that, in his mind, having children was a good thing."How can I lie about this? I'm pregnant with twins and it has been more than a month."Dad was extremely excited. "Great, that's great."I thought back to those days when Dad was seriously injured and hospitalized and I lost my child. By then, I forced a smile every time I went to see him, but I was getting haggard. Dad must have been worried about me all along.Now that I was pregnant again, he might think that there was still hope between me and Derek."What's the deal betw

    Tabitha's POVDad looked up at the sky and said, "Then let me ask you, what would happen if I didn't let her go?"I remained silent, thinking about this question in my mind.Dad continued speaking, "I'd only get resentment and silent treatment. She wouldn't yell at me, but every day after that, she would hate me and this unfair world."There would be no light in her eyes, no smile on her lips. And even though I kept her by my side, I couldn't have her heart. All I got would be a broken family. Even you would have to grow up discreetly."I never forget how carefully you tried to please her. You were so little back then. While other kids your age enjoyed a carefree childhood, you had to do everything you could to win her favor, but in the end, you failed, right?"In this suffocating family, a battlefield without smoke, it wouldn't be long before you became like her."The reason why peacocks are beautiful is because they have a vast expanse of space.

    Tabitha's POVFrom Poison and Wolf Shadow to Elena, I thought I had already found the answer.It didn't seem like that now.Yet, Dad was unaware of what had happened later."Tabitha, don't you trust your old man? Even if I wanted to find a new Luna for the pack, I would ask for your consent. I would only have a child when all the conditions got stable and mature in every aspect. How could I possibly do something irresponsible like that?"If it weren't for my dad saying it with his own mouth, I would probably have misunderstood it for a lifetime."Didn't she like you very much? How did she end up getting pregnant with someone else's child?"Dad sighed again. "This is what I often say about young people being impulsive. After she angrily left me, she went to a nightclub and got drunk. Then, she had a one-night stand with someone. Later, I found her and made my position clear. No sooner had we been together than we discovered that she was pregnant."

    Tabitha's POVDad continued, "Tabitha, I have protected you well since you were little. You don't know the challenges that werewolves face in human society. Both men and women will do whatever it takes to climb up the ladder for power, money, and status.'""I know it now.""Back then, she spent long enough time on me. I was her best choice. Firstly, I was the Alpha of a pack, and secondly, I didn't have a mate while my only child was not in the Silver Moon Pack."If she could join the pack and become my mate, she wouldn't have to worry about anyone else taking her place. Most importantly, I am much older than her, and she would receive a lot of money after my death."Only after receiving a clear answer from me did she give up on pursuing others. Do you know who she targeted that night?"I suddenly felt a chill down my spine. "Who?""It was Derek."I was completely dumbfounded. "How could it be him?""Well, she has a high self-esteem. Mayb

He didn't deserve this end.But Alvin wasn't a healer. All he could do was watch as Derek's breaths grew shallower, his skin paler.The bell tinkled again—Hedwig had followed them here.When they finally stopped, Alvin eased Derek against a gnarled pine, its needles pricking Derek's back like needles of ice."This spot's good," Alvin said, voice cracking. "You'll see the sunrise."Derek nodded weakly. "Good."The mountain wind bit through Derek's coat, but it cleared his head a little."Alvin... my biggest regret was letting Daphne's demands tear Tabitha and me apart. If I hadn't blamed her for Silver Moon Pack's problems... none of this would've happened.""Alpha Derek, you had your reasons," Alvin said, though the words felt hollow."R

After eating the fruit she'd given him, he picked up his pen again.All night, he didn't rest.He could feel the life Hedwig had breathed into him fading. His senses were dulling again.But the will was done. Now, he only wanted to write letters—to Tabitha, to his kids, Kyrian, Helios and Ayla.The poison was moving faster than it should've. Every letter cost him energy, accelerating the venom's grip.First, he wrote to Kyrian. "Be a good man. Lead the pack with your heart, not just your claws."Derek's chest ached. He'd failed Kyrian, leaving him to shoulder the pack's weight alone.But love? That never faded.Next, his mother.The letter was short—"Take care of Kyrian. If Tabitha ev

    Third person's POVAt the mention of the word "will," Rolf's face, which had been tense for days, crumpled. His eyes instantly reddened."Alpha Derek, you don't need a will! You're gonna be fine, you hear me?!"But at this moment, Derek became calm. "I don't have much time left. It took me a lot of effort to get to this camp. Even if I leave, it would take a day. What's the point of leaving if she comes back right after I go? It's better to stay here. If she doesn't come back in the end, I at least need to settle things, I can't just die without any explanation.""Alpha Derek...""Alvin, go get it," Derek said.Alvin's eyes welled up. "Alright."Alban, with red eyes, said, "I'm sorry, kid. I couldn't help you this time.""Dr. Weaver, I'm already grateful to you. You're right, there are some things beyond our control. I guess this is just my fate."In just two days, Derek had gone from a healthy man to someone whose organ

"I'm not sure about that."After all, Hedwig was Derek's spitting image, but she wasn't certain about Hedwig's father."Regardless, he already has other women by his side. He might have forgotten your mother and could build a future with someone else. Even so, do you still want to save him?"Hedwig pursed her lips and didn't respond. Alma stroked her hair, "Poor child, you should know how hard your mother worked to escape him. If he discovers you two are still alive, he'll imprison her again. Do you want that?"Hedwig shook her head gently."Then pretend you don't know him. Your mother and the others aren't in the village. Whether he survives is up to luck," Alma sighed, "Your mother suffered too much. She was barely alive when she gave birth to you. Cherish the life you have now."Hedwig nodded.Strangely, after Derek drank Hedwig's blood, about half an hour later, his vision and hea

"Stop making a fuss here! Don't try to coerce me with such theatrics. Whether you stay or do something more extreme, it has nothing to do with me. If you're looking for trouble, take it elsewhere, not here!"Misha stood there, stunned. How could Mrs. Atkinson act so unreasonably?"Why are you staring at me like that? Do you think this is a soap opera?" Alma sneered, "Now leave before you soil my place."As she spoke, she shielded Hedwig's eyes, "Don't look, or it might ruin your mood."Misha returned, drenched and furious, cursing under her breath, "Why is this old woman so difficult? She didn't have to help, but did she have to throw urine at me?"Rolf pinched his nose and stepped back

Alban's face flushed at her words.It had been decades since he was brought here by his mentor after being poisoned.Back then, he was just a teenager, and Alma, in her early forties, was in her prime, looking much younger than her age.Known for her straightforward nature, she had teased him about his height after treating him. Alban had dutifully drunk milk and played basketball in an effort to grow taller, but his height eventually plateaued at around 5'7", making him appear shorter than his younger counterparts like Alvin."Mrs. Atkinson, you're still the same as ever. It's wonderful to see you again. Could you please help my friend? He's been poisoned with the Nine-Heart Wolfsbane," Alban pleaded.Alma sighed, "You've put me in a difficult spot. The N
