Chapter 2

Violet and I held our wedding ceremonies together.

In my past life, we also held them at this same time.

Back then, Caleb didn't come to the ceremony, but Lucas arrived early in the morning.

Everyone said he was the more considerate husband.

But in this life, Caleb didn't miss the ceremony.

Although he just stood to the side with a cold expression, I breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, in the past life when Caleb didn't attend the ceremony, Violet suffered much gossip and strange looks.

But Violet looked somewhat frantic with rage.

During the ceremony she kept glaring at me with resentful eyes, thinking:

[Laugh all you want. I'll see if you can still laugh after getting beaten later.]

It wasn't until the end of the ceremony that Violet impatiently said to Lucas: "I love you, Lucas."

Then she kissed his lips. After the kiss, she stared at me with a showing-off look.

I knew she wanted to see me embarrassed.

But I wasn't stupid. I wouldn't act like she did in the past life and leave the scene in anger.

That made all the Pack members and Alpha Anderson present unhappy.

I remember everyone said Violet wasn't steady enough and didn't deserve to be the Pack's future Luna.

So much so that after marriage, Caleb never gave her a kind look, making her suffer terribly in the Pack.

I smiled graciously and didn't rush to show affection in front of Caleb.

Instead, I said to the members attending the ceremony:

"Thank you all for your hard work throughout this day. I extend my regards to everyone and hope you enjoy the ball that follows."

As soon as I spoke, the murmuring below ceased.

Alpha Anderson, seated in the place of honor, looked at me with newfound respect.

SilverFang Pack was the most powerful Pack on the continent, deeply concerned with face and reputation.

So as the mate of the Alpha's heir, one must show proper bearing—not just compete for a man's favor, but also care for the feelings of Pack members.

Violet also saw Alpha Anderson's gaze, and a flash of annoyance crossed her eyes.

[How disgusting. I'll definitely make you embarrass yourself later!]

I felt that being able to hear thoughts was really a good thing.

Having such a convenient ability made everything so much easier.

When it was time for the opening dance, I calmly lifted my skirt and walked toward the center of the dance floor.

Violet stared at me intently, counting in her mind [One, two, three.]

The next second, I directly sidestepped and reached out to grasp Caleb's hand.

And Violet, who had been rushing toward me with wine, fell hard to the ground, the wine soaking her entire body.

"Are you okay?"

Lucas hurried to help her up.

But in his mind he was criticizing: [What an idiot!]

Everyone was looking this way.

Alpha Anderson's face was full of anger.

"As the mate of the Alpha's son, how can you be so careless?"

"I'm... I'm sorry, Alpha Anderson. I didn't mean to."

Violet quickly apologized, but her eyes showed unwillingness.

If I were her, in this life I wouldn't make trouble again—I'd just live peacefully.

But she didn't want me to have it easy, so naturally I wouldn't suffer in silence either.
