Derek's POV

Tabitha didn't seem to be bothered. On the contrary, she looked quite calm, which showed a stark contrast compared to the woman on the floor.

The moment the door closed, Sally seemed to understand why I chose Tabitha.

But it was already late.

The door shut her piercing voice out.

She had no future anymore. She destroyed with her own hands a marriage with a man who truly loved her.

I didn't let go of Tabitha's hand, not even after we went back to the car.

Since Tabitha woke up, the things I was worried about didn't happen, but Tabitha's personality had completely changed.

She was way too calm. Even when she saw other women approaching me, she no longer showed any jealousy. She had lost the sense of possessiveness she used to have.

Yet the good news was that she no longer rejected my kindness towards her.

Overall, her emotions were very stable, so stable that it even scared me a little.

"Tabitha, don't you have any questions for me?"

In the darkness, I initiated the conversa

    Derek's POVUpon hearing what I said, Rosago seemed to have fallen into an ice cave. I saw disbelief written all over his face."Alpha Derek, what did you say..."Rolf carefully walked in with a large basin, wearing professional gloves in advance to avoid getting injured."I value justice. I will accidentally spill the acid on you. If you can dodge, it's your lucky day. I'll let you get away. But if you can't, don't blame me."A trace of fear flashed in Rosago's eyes. I had already cut him with a knife. Thus, if the wounds were contaminated with sulfuric acid, he would suffer a hell lot.Rosago knelt on the ground, begging frantically over and over again, banging his forehead down."Alpha Derek, I'm sorry! I've learned my lesson. The sulfuric acid like that could be fatal!" I kicked him away.The aura of Alpha was faintly emanating, putting Rosago under tremendous pressure.I stood up straight, looked at him with an indifferent expression

Whether it was studying medicine or studying business, both were fine.Derek didn't get upset when he didn't receive a response from me. He held onto my earlobe and said earnestly, "Tabitha, I am different from you. In my eyes and my heart, the past and the future are all about you."After a passionate moment, Derek planted a kiss on my forehead and then left gracefully.I watched him leave with Tucker in silence.

It is currently snowing heavily in Seattle, while Sydney is warm like spring, with a warm and fresh scent in the air.As soon as I got off the plane, I felt a completely different atmosphere.There had already been a person in a black uniform at the VIP gate, welcoming the arriving guests. "Alpha Derek, I hope it has been a pleasant trip."His gaze fell on me, and he first looked me up and down before slowly speaking, "Miss Hartley, I hope you've enjoyed your trip, too."I did not miss the middle-aged man's gaze as he scrutinized me. A woman's innate sixth sense told me that he did not like me.Of course, I didn't want to prove anything either. I just nodded at him as a way of greeting and then left

At that time, Tabitha was like a lost little lamb, speaking in a delicate and weak manner.Unlike now, she exuded confidence all over her body in the past. She pursed her lips and added, "It doesn't matter if you don't like her. Anyway, I wasn't planning on marrying her."After saying that, Tabitha walked out of the restaurant with big strides, and Derek watched her carefree figure and fell into deep thought.Without the constraints of children and family, she was surprisingly free.She had plenty of sleep on the plane, and when she arrived at the new place, she was in a good mood, so even her footsteps became much lighter.She hopped and skipped in front, just like a little girl, without any trace of the dullness from the previous year.As they passed by some shops selling local specialties, she would even instruct Derek to go and buy some delicious local products

    Tabitha's POVDerek's mother, Andrea, also had an Alpha bloodline. Her family's Thunder Pack was situated on the outskirts of the southern city.Here the mountains were beautiful and the waters were clear. Everywhere I walked was covered with various vegetation.Not long ago, there should have been a light rain. The water vapor on the road surface had already evaporated, but the air was filled with the refreshing scent emitted by the vegetation after the rain.The lanterns of this pack were also very unique. Some were like strings of stars falling from tall plants, and among them were also many lanterns shaped like mushrooms, pumpkins, or various small animals and fairies.Rather than a pack of wolves, it was more like humans stumbling into another fantastical world.When we arrived at the Thunder Pack, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening.The Thunder Pack was large, surrounded by estates. It was difficult to see clearly at night, but one could

Our people can't fire to stop them, and with one in the sky and one at sea, it's easy to run into danger."Derek hadn't planned to stop Tabitha, so he could only watch helplessly as Lucian docked the boat on a small island."This island is covered in dense forests, making it unsuitable for helicopter landings," noted Derek, who then ordered, "Use rope ladders to ascend the trees, and keep another helicopter on standby. Lucian must be prepared."As soon as Lucian reached the shore, he quickly took the two children from Tabitha's arms and urged, "Come on, follow me!"Tabitha and Gloria followed Lucian into a pre-dug tunnel."Even though they can't find us for now, we can't hide forever. Once they surround the island, we'll be trapped," said Tabitha.Wiping sweat from his forehead, Lucian whispered, "If my gue

    Third person's POVAyla suddenly reached out and removed Lucian's mask, giving him a light kiss on the cheek, "Lucian..."This was the first time Tabitha saw Lucian's face. She had expected some birthmark or scar, but his face was clean, with sharp features and striking good looks.Oddly, Tabitha felt he resembled Derek a bit.Lucian quickly put his mask back on and said, "Let's go, to avoid further trouble."Tabitha snapped out of her daze, thinking it must have been the poor night light, and held Gloria's hand as they boarded the speedboat.Unbeknownst to her, the island had numerous cameras and small, insect-like HD capture devices hidden in trees and bushes, which could move flexibly and transmit Tabitha's and the children's movements to Derek.Derek had already received information about Tabitha and Gloria's planned escape.Now, Derek watched the fleeing figures on the screen.Alvin asked worriedly, "Alpha Derek, ar

Last night didn't satisfy you?" Alpha Leopold teased with a smile.Gloria wondered how such a refined face could utter such words.After being with Leopold for so long, she knew he was different from Derek, who was rule-abiding and secretly passionate.When Leopold was in the mood, he could even place his hand on her thigh under the table while discussing business."Will you miss me?" Gloria asked suddenly.Leopold thought she was just being affectionate and stroked her nose. "I'll miss you the most at night," he said.His answer was never what she wanted to hear.Gloria smiled and said, "Then I won't miss you. It's too tiring."Leopold was about to say something else

She couldn't blame others, only herself for breaking the rules.Talking about money yet falling in love was like cheating in a card game."Why are you looking at me like that? If you think the money is insufficient, I can add more.""It's already quite a lot."Gloria suddenly smiled and sat on Leopold's lap, hugging his neck as usual.She was more certain than ever that leaving was the best way to end this relationship.Before that, she mustn't let Leopold sense her intentions.Gloria's eyes flickered with coquettishness as she said in a soft voice, "Triple the amount, and I want it now.""Little money-grubber." Leopold gave her a light peck on the nose and took out his phone to transfer the mone

Let's go in and talk."Gloria nodded to indicate the direction. Leopold led her into the room."Exactly what do you want... mmm..."The moment the door closed, Leopold closed in, his thin lips accurately capturing Gloria's. "I've missed you," he said.Gloria was stunned. She had expected Leopold to have some important business.Lately, she had been reviewing the contracts she handled, worried there might be issues that prompted his long journey.But the moment Leopold kissed her, she thought, 'Is this man crazy?'"Let go of me!"She pushed him away with great effort.Although some time had passed since her miscarriage and her body had mostly recovered, it didn't mean the pain in her heart had healed.What on earth did this man want, being so

    Third person's POVGloria shrugged and grumbled, "That joke isn't funny at all, Tabitha. What do we do now? He's here. Our plan…"Before she could finish, Leopold's voice cut in from behind. "What plan? Gloria, what are you scheming behind my back?"Gloria's heart sank. "Almost blew it."Tabitha, ever calm, set down her tools, removed her surgical gown, and stepped out of the room."Nothing major. Who knows what Gloria's talking about—maybe stabbing you in your sleep or weakening you with wolfsbane. She comes up with a hundred wild ideas a day."Gloria exhaled in relief, shooting Tabitha a grateful glance. 'Thank the stars for you.'Their personalities balanced each other—Tabitha steady and composed, Gloria fiery and impulsive.Leopold chuckled lightly. "How mischievous. You're the sensible one, Luna Tabitha."Tabitha replied flatly, "You should know by now, Alpha Leopold, we've rejected that dynamic. The title doesn't suit.""My mistake, Miss Hartley."Leopold now understood Derek a

    Third person's POVGloria had been in an exceptionally good mood these past two days. She practically floated as she walked, even skipping and greeting the grass by the roadside.Perhaps her joy had irked Leopold, because on the evening of the third day, he suddenly appeared.At the time, Gloria was playing hide-and-seek with the children.When she heard the sound of a helicopter overhead, she didn't think much of it.Over the past few days, she'd learned the routine. Every ten days or so, a boat would leave the island to restock supplies. She assumed it was the servants returning and didn't pay it any mind.She had a blindfold over her eyes and was standing under a tree, counting, "Eight, nine, ten... Are you little ones hiding yet? The big bad wolf is coming to catch the little bunnies!"Since there weren't many people to play with, she usually roped in a few servants to join the game.She took two steps and bumped into someo

    Third person's POVDerek didn't mock Leopold's current arrogance because he knew fate was fair. What was meant to happen would happen.Moreover, Derek had noticed that Leopold's feelings for Gloria were special—far more than just a casual lover, despite what he claimed.It didn't matter. Love had a way of humbling even the most stubborn people.As Leopold spoke, he glanced at the surveillance footage again. Gloria was sitting by the sea, staring at the ocean, her emotions much calmer than before.It seemed Derek's suggestion had been right. Gloria needed the company of friends and children to heal her inner wounds."My family situation isn't great right now. Let her stay on the island for three months, and then I'll bring her back."The incident with Gloria's miscarriage had infuriated Leopold. He'd acted impulsively for her sake, and her former fiancé was still in intensive care.The other family was also wealthy

He'd only wanted Tabitha to know about Kyrian's existence, but he'd overlooked the fact that Kyrian was no longer a clueless toddler like his younger siblings.At this age, children understood everything and had developed their own complex emotions."I'm sorry."Derek carried Kyrian step by step back to the house. Kyrian was wrapped tightly in the military coat, while Derek was left exposed to the snow and wind.Although Kyrian had spent more time with Derek growing up, Derek had been chasing after Tabitha these past two years, and Kyrian rarely got to see his father.When Kyrian saw Derek covered in snow, his crying gradually subsided.He wasn't the only one hurting. Derek must have been suffering too.Kyrian sniffled softly, and Derek looked into his eyes, speaking earnestly, "I promise you, one day I'll bring Mom back, okay?"Kyrian's nose was red f
