Chapter 42

• Derek’s POV
• While Erika fell into a deep sleep after being marked, I lost balance and fell to bed with a frown. It hurt so much but I didn’t regret it. I was very angry at her for her betrayal. As an Alpha, I could tolerate mistakes. But I couldn’t tolerate being cheated by the woman I cherished the most. I had thought of a lot of ways to punish her after she woke up. Should I punish her with electricity and forbid her from using her gift for a long time? Or should I lock her up in prison since all she wanted to do was escape? But after I saw her cuddle up in the shabby room with her body full of injuries, I had to admit I was softened. I just hoped that she could recover as soon as possible. The sex also relieved my anger. At least I took her virginity if I couldn’t make her give up escaping. And I lost my virginity a long time ago.
• I knew that getting all the injuries from her body must be very painful, but I didn’t expect the pain to be so overwhelming. All of a sudden, pains could be felt all over my body. It felt like every part of my body was aching. Before I knew it, scars and injuries were all over my body from my chest down to my leg. There were also some whipping injuries on my back. I couldn’t see them but I could feel them. Yes, I not only transferred all her injuries, but also her new scars. I had promised to protect her and I was serious.
