Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 48
Tabitha's POVFacing Derek's probing, I cringed with embarrassment.Begging him for help was the last thing I wanted to do, yet Dad's life was hanging by a thread. I had no choice but to swallow my pride.So I bowed even deeper, my voice soaked in humility as I pleaded, "Sorry for my arrogance. I'm begging you, please tell me where to find Matthew."Derek lounged back and asked coldly with a raised brow, "Why should I?"Biting my lip, I murmured, "I'll do anything, please."A sardonic smile curved his lips.Then I watched as he gestured for a nearby Omega from the Black Thorn Pack.Noticing his action, the Omega immediately walked up to him and bowed respectfully, asking, "Alpha Derek, what can I do for you?""You're done for the day. Now pack up and go back to the pack," he ordered.The Omega nodded and left the grove.When I was gazing at her receding figure, I heard Derek commanding, "Didn't you say you'd do anything? Well, n

Derek's POVWhen I finished my words, a look of disbelief flashed across Tabitha's face. I knew all this was tough for her to swallow.Going from being the daughter of the Silver Moon Pack's Alpha to becoming my Luna, she'd always been privileged. I bet she'd never face such humiliation.Just when I was expecting her to say no, she nodded in agreement.Well, that was quite a surprise.Since Kamp told me she used wolfsbane to stop her wound from healing, I'd been suspecting she was up to something.I thought she quit because of my warning, but she came to me again just a few days later.So I found fault with her, trying to make her lose her temper. Yet she complied in stride every time.I expected seeing her swallow her pride would make me feel good. But the truth was, it didn't cheer me up at all."Well then, let's get going." I stood up and pulled Tabitha with me.I wanted her to fight back, to bicker with me, to curse me. Anything

Derek's POV"Shut up, Leo! Can't you see I'm having fun here," I shot back at him.But Leo just howling nonstop, even trying to take over my body.Feeling something off, I regained my self-control.I let go of Tabitha, snapping, "Off you go. But remember, you're pretty much my slave now. Next time I call, you gotta show up immediately.""Got it." Tabitha adjusted her clothes with a panicked look. Then, she bit her lip and asked, "What about Matthew?""I'll let you know once I find him," I replied.She nodded, spinning around to leave.Then something occurred to me, so I called out, "Wait. Did that Orson guy visit you again while you were in the hospital?"Tabitha exclaimed in surprise, "You're spying on me? But there are no members of the Black Thorn Pack in the hospital."I impatiently waved my hand, ordering, "Just answer my question."Tabitha hesitated before finally admitting, "Yep, Orson used to be my attending. So I turned

Tabitha's POV Dad's even breaths were like a background track to my ramble. Leaning in, I continued in a whisper, "Dad, after Derek rejected me, he coughed up a hefty alimony. I'm putting that cash to work, helping the Silver Moon Pack get stronger. Look how much I've grown." I placed his hand next to my cheek. "When Mom walked out, you told me regrets were necessary in life. And it's the only way we can learn to cherish everything and everyone around us. Since then, I've been treasuring every single thing, yet it turns out my efforts are all in vain." I let out a sigh, heavy as the weight of my heart. "I don't know who on earth is targeting me. Just when I thought I was getting better, someone applied wolfsbane on my wound when I was in a coma. Now Orson's going abroad, and my treatment's gonna be put on hold again. I don't know if I'll still be alive when you come around." I mumbled on all afternoon until the sunlight began to fade. No sign of Dad waking, I couldn't help but ch

Tabitha's POV I felt really relieved that shifters from the Black Thorn Pack were as respectful to me as before. Not everyone was as cruel as Derek, after all. I gave Alvin a smile, replying, "Thank you. But I'm gonna wait for my friend." Right after finishing my words, I saw Gloria walking towards me in a flamboyant red dress. She even wore sunglasses! Stopping before Alvin in her high heels, she took off her sunglasses and glared at him, "Are you messing with Tabitha again?" Alvin hesitated before speaking, "Why are you dressed up like this? This is the Moonshadow Fair, not a mating gathering!" I couldn't help but chuckle at Alvin's words. It turned out that Gloria went to get changed in the parking lot. No wonder it took her so long to return. "Even if it were a mating gathering, my mate would be an Alpha, not a Beta like you. Just go and mind your own business!" Gloria was always candid. Alvin shook his head resignedly. "Fine. Just come with me." "Thank you. But we've got

Tabitha's POVI gave Gloria a tug.Just as Gloria was about to leave with me, Daphne threatened in a low voice, "Gloria, don't push your luck.""You sure I'm pushing my luck? I haven't even made it public that you broke the marriage between Derek and Tabitha."Daphne's face looked particularly pale under the dim light.Gloria was glad to see Daphne's reaction. "I got evidence for everything you did. If you ever mess with me or Tabitha again, I'd consider making them public."Daphne gave Gloria a hard glare, but didn't say anything else.We didn't talk much any more.Because the auction started soon.As the only recipient of the golden full moon invitation, I sat near Derek.I didn't expect to meet Derek again so soon after we parted ways.It was just that we didn't talk at all, just like two strangers.I showed no interest in the auction at first.Until Lysander announced the auction of Hope Ranch.According to Ly

Derek's POVAs the hammer went down, the bidding for Hope Ranch came to an end. I got the ranch, but the joy of victory didn't last in my heart.My gaze followed Tabitha, her figure appearing lonely and desolate.Her sad look made me heartbroken.Although our mate bond had been severed, I could somehow sense her pain.Standing in the venue, I wanted to walk towards her out of impulse.My wolf Leo growled in my mind, telling me that Tabitha's pain had much to do with me."What did you feel?" I talked to my wolf in my mind."I can feel her pain. Go over to her. I need to know if she's our second chance mate." Leo's voice was deep and powerful, his words direct and honest.I furrowed my brow. "We lost her. She's no longer our mate. And I don't think there's a chance she's our second chance mate.""I need to confirm that!" Leo roared out his displeasure.I couldn't ignore Leo.So I went to chase after Tabitha immediately. When

Tabitha's POVUnder the soft lights of Duke Seafood Restaurant, Gloria and I sat facing each other. On the table before us were all kinds of fancy seafood dishes.The meal was a pretty penny, but I couldn't care less.I gently lifted my glass, telling Gloria, "You know what? The moment I failed to snag Hope Ranch, I realized all that cash meant nothing to me. Our friendship is way more precious than that. So here's to our friendship!" I clinked my glass with her.We chatted as we savored the dishes, her laughter dissipating the gloom in the air.She eased up pretty quick, but I had this nagging feeling of loss that I couldn't shake off.After downing a few glasses of wine, Gloria got tipsy."Tabitha, you always look so tough, like nothing could ever hurt you. It breaks my heart to see you like that. Sometimes I wish you could just open up to me. Tell me exactly how you feel instead of forcing a smile to reassure me," she slurred.She sounded b

Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 683
Third person's POVHer words, laced with provocation and temptation, were like adding fuel to the fire, causing the flames of Derek's long-suppressed anger to burn even more fiercely.Matilda seemed to be walking further and further down a dangerous path from which there seemed to be no return.Forrest did his best to hold Derek back, preventing him from acting impulsively, while silently praying for Matilda.His demeanor was akin to lighting a stick of incense that foretold impending misfortune for her.He knew all too well that the higher she climbed, the harder her fall would be.Under Matilda's inflammatory rhetoric, the crowd began a new round of fierce bidding.This round was significantly more intense than before. The starting price was set at ten million dollars, but it doubled rapidly as if by magic, soaring to forty million dollars in the blink of an eye and continuing to rise like a rocket.The giant electronic scree
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 682
Third person's POVThe intense spotlight shone directly on Tabitha's face, highlighting her slender figure and accentuating the delicate depth of her features.Derek, who had always known of Tabitha's exceptional beauty, nearly lost his breath at the sight of her under the spotlight, his heart pounding with a mix of awe and admiration.Tabitha's eyes were adorned with silver contacts, a touch that transformed her entire aura, setting her apart from the woman he knew.The subtle shimmer of glitter on her exposed skin conjured images in Derek's mind of a mysterious mermaid stranded on the shore."Damn it, I should have kept bidding," Baxter muttered, his face a mix of annoyance and regret.The person beside him quickly offered consolation, "Mr. Rios, while the woman is indeed stunning, she's not an innocent young girl, as you can see from the age of her daughter. It's just a kiss; what does it matter? Once you have her in your grasp, you can d
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 681
Third person's POVIn this social circle, it was well known that Baxter Rios was always keen on various entertainment activities and was notorious for his indulgence in them.The Rios family was wealthy and had a deep foundation that left many in awe. However, when it came to certain matters, Mr. Rios was known to be particularly stubborn.Derek was deeply concerned. He really didn't want to get entangled with the Rios family.He was well aware that once things got out of control, the elder of the Rios family, Spike Rios, would become an extremely troublesome problem.Standing in the corner, his brows furrowed and his eyes filled with worry, he occasionally looked warily towards the direction of the bidding.At this moment, Derek's hands unconsciously clenched and relaxed, his inner unease surging like tidal waves.At this time, only Mr. Rios was still continuously raising the bid, and just for the cost of unmasking, it had soared all
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 680
Third person's POVMatilda was eagerly anticipating the sight of Derek's frustration and agony.The conditions she set were deliberately tricky. If Derek didn't pay, there would certainly be other men willing to bid.Thus, the initial unmasking fee was a must for Derek.The ten million was merely the starting price and, in reality, a clever way for Matilda to test the depth of Derek's wealth.She pondered to herself that if Derek could easily come up with the money, it would only buy a kiss, and the subsequent bidding for the right to use would undoubtedly require an astronomical sum. What would he use to continue competing then?On the other hand, if he saved the money for the later bidding, Tabitha would inevitably be kissed by other men.No matter how Derek chose, Matilda was determined to disgust him thoroughly and make him suffer in this cruel game.However, despite all her scheming, Matilda never expected that Derek had b
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 679
Third person's POVDerek took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.Tabitha and Ayla, dressed in silver gowns, appeared grand, vintage, and exquisite.With silver chains as accessories, they had a unique beauty.Ayla's face was unobstructed.When her innocent and angelic face appeared on the large screen, many were captivated by her heavenly appearance.She wasn't drugged, her large eyes clear and bright.Adorned with crystal and feather headpieces, she looked like an exotic princess.Her innocent eyes didn't understand what was happening. She didn't cry but stared curiously at everything around her, like a curious fawn that had wandered into a den of wolves.Her tender pink lips were slightly parted, and Derek could read her lips from the screen."Mommy, Wilmot."Derek's fingers had already touched his weapon. At this moment, he wished he could draw it out and shoot Matilda on the spot.The r
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 678
Third person's POVDerek's fingers dug tightly into the armrests of his chair. During the time Tabitha had been taken from him, he worried about what might have been done to her and the child.Although he was aware of the rule that "merchandise" must be kept clean before delivery, he couldn't help but feel anxious.When the host announced the first item for auction, his heart raced, and he breathed a sigh of relief when it had nothing to do with Tabitha.It seemed as if he had imagined Matilda would save Tabitha for last.His grip on the armrests tightened.As time ticked by, the audience's enthusiasm for the early items was lackluster, their attention fixed on the finale. They had been promised something special, and they were waiting for it.Forrest passed Derek water a few times, but he didn't take a sip.When it came to the grand finale, Matilda made her personal appearance.She wore a red, form-fitting dress and hig
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 677
Third person's POVDerek entered the auction venue with an upright posture and steady steps, blending into the bustling crowd.The auction had not officially begun, but the venue was already filled with noise and excitement, a cacophony of excited and thrilled voices rising and falling."I heard there will be a stunning beauty featured tonight," one voice said."I've heard that too. It's said to be a rare sight," another chimed in."These past few days on the ship have been utterly boring. With the ship about to dock, we must seize the last chance for some real fun," a third voice added.Everyone in the venue wore masks of various kinds, as if they were shields hiding their true selves.However, in Derek's eyes, beneath those masks lay ugly and filthy faces, immersed in this sinful transaction, chasing twisted desires.Derek had barely settled into his seat when a man approached hurriedly, his steps slightly rushe
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 676
Third person's POVThe Black Thorn Pack had withstood the test of time for centuries, and its resilience was not solely due to its business acumen.Derek's position was underpinned by the support of the royal wolf pack. Without it, his pack would have crumbled long ago.Even with his vast wealth, Derek would be vulnerable without the protection of this powerful backing.Derek's actions now threatened to upset the interests of many factions, which could severely impact his future and provide his rivals with an opportunity to strike.From a rational and strategic perspective, this was far from a wise move.However, what other options did he have?His beloved wife and child were in the clutches of others, and every path to rescue them was fraught with obstacles.In his heart, this was the most direct and only viable way to save Tabitha.Derek's heart was filled with helplessness and determination.He let out a soft s
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 675
Third person's POVIn the auction venue for living "merchandise," the atmosphere is always more heated and agitated than in those for inanimate objects.The guests had collected their entry number cards early and stepped into the venue with anticipation, each secretly speculating on what kind of "prey" they might acquire today.Their eyes gleamed with greed, excitement, and curiosity, as if they were about to participate in a grand and thrilling carnival, rather than a sinful transaction.On the eve of the auction's commencement, Matilda suddenly received a message from her subordinates, informing her that someone was attempting to prevent the auction from starting.Matilda immediately guessed who was behind this mischief, a disdainful sneer curling her lips.She whispered, "He arrived quite promptly. Ignore it, proceed with the plan."One of her subordinates, hearing this, showed a worried expression and cautiously advised, "He seems
