Chapter 1
My mother was a witch who once saved the life of the Alpha of SilverFang Pack.
After my mother passed away, Alpha Anderson found me and my sister.
He told us we could each marry one of his sons.
In my past life, Violet chose the Alpha's heir, Caleb Anderson.
But in the end, she was driven out of the Pack.
Reborn to the day Violet and I chose our husbands, I discovered I could hear people's thoughts.
I heard Violet think: "This time, I must steal the good husband first."
Then she hurriedly dragged away the gentle husband I married in my previous life.
And Caleb, who beat her every day in the past life, was left to me.
I smiled. Did she really think the man I married before had good character?
I was reborn to the day Violet and I were brought back to SilverFang Pack.
In the Pack's banquet hall, all important members gathered for a welcome ceremony held for us sisters.
Alpha Anderson stood on the elevated platform, his two sons standing on either side.
One was Caleb Anderson, Alpha Anderson's eldest son, cold by nature.
He had already been chosen as the Alpha's heir.
The other was Lucas Anderson, Alpha Anderson's second son, gentle by nature.
A perfectly measured smile hung on his face.
[This time, I must steal the good husband first.]
A female voice transmitted into my ears.
It was Violet's voice.
I gripped my skirt tightly.
Not only had I been reborn, but I could also hear people's thoughts.
And judging from these two sentences from Violet, she had also been reborn. Otherwise she couldn't possibly say such things.
Alpha Anderson's voice echoed in the hall: "...Violet, Lily, you may freely choose one of my sons to become your mate."
Violet immediately stepped forward. "Lucas looks gentle and kind. May I... may I choose him?"
After speaking, she secretly cast me a smug glance.
[This life, you can take the beatings for me.]
Her thoughts were crystal clear.
Alpha Anderson nodded and looked at me. "Lily, since Violet has already chosen Lucas, then you will marry Caleb."
I stepped forward with a smile. "Yes, Alpha. I quite admire Caleb as well."
I turned and stood beside him.
Caleb glanced down at me with no emotion whatsoever.
Then he looked away, as if I were merely air.
[What a beautiful little treasure.]
Lucas's voice came through.
I whipped my head around and saw Lucas gently supporting Violet.
A chill ran through my body, and I instinctively grabbed Caleb's hand hanging at his side.
His hand was large with prominent knuckles, and warmth transmitted through his skin, unexpectedly hot.
He glanced sideways at me but didn't pull his hand back.
Although this man looked quite intimidating, I felt that staying with him was better than staying with that hypocritical psycho Lucas.
In my past life, Violet had married Caleb.
As the Alpha's heir, Caleb was very capable and busy with Pack affairs all day long. I heard he was very cold toward his Mate... Violet sought him out repeatedly, but each time she was driven out of his room with injuries.
As for Lucas, although his status in the Pack was inferior to Caleb's, it was still enough to let me live comfortably in the Pack.
He accompanied me every day, taking care of me attentively, spoiling me to the bone.
Everyone in the Pack knew we had a good relationship.
And later, Caleb suddenly died from poisoning. Alpha Anderson suspected Violet did it and drove her out of the Pack.
Lucas then inherited the Alpha position.
My status in the Pack instantly skyrocketed.
Violet was jealous of me. When I went out, she drove into me, and we died together.
But she didn't know that Lucas wasn't what he appeared to be...
Lucas had always lived in his brother's shadow.
On the surface he pretended to be obedient and polite to everyone, but in reality he was a control freak and domestic abuser.
He was just very clever—he never hit my face, so outsiders couldn't tell at all.
Every time he beat me savagely, he would then kneel down to apply medicine and beg my forgiveness.
I closed my eyes. The pain from my previous life was still so real and clear.
I shook my head, telling myself it was all in the past.
This life, I must change my originally tragic fate.
I want to control my own destiny, to be independent and not rely on anyone.
