Although its form was different, the uniqueness of the glacite used to forge the war hammer gave it a color and chill identical to that of the spear Perry had used in his previous life. Perry quickly guessed that I had given this gift to Alaric early on in this life.In his previous life, Perry knew what this gift meant to me, so in order to humiliate me, he had not cherished it and deliberately left it behind on a battlefield.In this life, it felt like he finally realized with clarity that my heart was no longer his. As this thought ran through his mind, he gradually increased the intensity of his attacks on Alaric.Although Alaric responded with all his might, he was worried that I would get hurt. He was also worried that many of the treasures in my room would be destroyed, so he was inevitably mindful of his movements.Seeing as Perry was about to strike Alaric where he had an old injury, I picked up my bow and shot Perry in his left hand.Perry howled and, as he had already s
Despite Perry apologizing repeatedly and even pleading with Luna Queen, he could not change Alpha King's mind. He was not Alpha King's biological child, after all. He had already been quite old by the time he joined the royal family alongside his mother.He had also always been afraid of Alpha King and dared not get close to him, so he had never developed much of a relationship with the latter.Even though Alpha King had always treated Perry favorably throughout the years on Luna Queen's account, Perry's transgression against me was as good as a transgression against the princess. That, in turn, was a transgression against his favorite son, Alaric.Whether as a monarch or as a father, Alpha King had no intention of continuing to be cordial with Perry.No matter how much he tried to delay his departure, under Alpha King's orders, Perry had no choice but to depart for the Rivia Pack that day.However, it just so happened to be the day of the wedding between Alaric and me.Just as I
As Perry confessed his love to me, Shirley, who had a mate bond with him, convulsed in pain behind him due to his confession.Her abdomen seemed to have been injured because he shoved her just now, and a faint trace of blood could be seen. However, Perry, her own mate, ignored the scent of blood in the air and simply looked lovingly at me.I found this irritating. After all, the wedding ceremony was about to begin!"It's too late for regrets," I told Perry. "A relationship between us is no longer possible. Please leave, and stop disturbing me!"Perry clearly did not want to give up just yet and attempted to grab me. Fortunately, Luna Queen appeared just in time. She angrily scolded the two of them and ordered the guards to escort them away to the Rivia Pack.With her help, I successfully finished putting on my makeup and set off from the palace on time.Deep in the forest, under the brilliant moonlight and with everyone as our witness, Alaric and I swore a sacred oath before the
Lacus Kingston, the Alpha King of Silverania, was incredibly gratified that I was willing to marry his son, Alaric Kingston. It was just a pity that Alaric was currently away for training. Hence, the marriage ceremony would have to wait until he returned three months later.On the way back to my room from Lacus' audience chamber in the palace, I overheard the maids around me discussing quietly among themselves."Look. That's the daughter of the Astoria Pack's Alpha, Sylvia Holting.""You mean the daughter of the one who died a year ago? What a pitiful lady."In their eyes, I was a pitiful person whose father had passed away not long ago."Pitiful? Hardly! She's already used this as leverage to request that the Alpha King approve her marriage to Mr. Cardell.""Ah. I've long heard that she admires Mr. Cardell, but there's no pride in doing things this way!""That's right. As the daughter of the Astoria Pack's Alpha, she's completely lacking in dignity."I listened quietly to thei
Before I could come to a conclusion as to whether or not Perry had also been reborn, Adelaide Morgenstern walked up to us and held my hand in hers.Adelaide was not only the Luna Queen of Silverania but also Alaric and Perry's biological mother. She told me that she was very happy that I was willing to marry her son and that she welcomed me as a member of their family.As she said all this, Perry's smug, knowing expression from behind her made me feel incredibly displeased.Adelaide said that she wanted to give me some pure white silk to be used in the making of my wedding dress. One of the Silveranian packs had presented the silk to the royal family as tribute.She asked Perry to take me to the storage room to retrieve it. Left with no other choice, I followed him to the storage room. Along the way, we encountered Shirley Lamos.Shirley, who had always been an extremely delicate lady, had two visible tear tracks trailing down her face, which made her look even more pitiable.She
After Perry and Shirley left, Adelaide visited me in my room. She informed me that Alaric was already preparing to return early and would be back in around four days.Although he could not return promptly, he did send an engagement gift ahead of himself—an heirloom box with the royal family crest carved into it.I was quite surprised. After all, Alaric had never taken a mate in my previous life. Therefore, I did not expect him to not only willingly accept this marriage but also take it seriously.In return for the respect he was showing me, I decided to give him a gift as well.My father had once prepared wedding gifts for me—among them was a mineral called glacite, mined from the foot of the snow-capped Southarc mountains. Any weapons forged from glacite were practically indestructible.In my previous life, I had the glacite forged into a spear that I gifted to Perry. However, he had not treasured it and casually forgot it on the battlefield during one of the battles we participa
After Perry and Shirley left, I reorganized my stuff with an aching heart. Fortunately, none of the items that were destroyed were gifts left to me by my parents. Still, it was worth losing these items in exchange for discerning just how little Perry cared for me.There was no more time to be sad. I left the city in search of the best blacksmith I could find to forge the glacite into a weapon.Alaric would be back very soon, and I wanted to give it to him as a gift during our first meeting in order to gain more favor with him.I passed through a forest on the way back to the palace. Out of habit, I glanced toward the wooden treehouse built on the largest tree.That was the place where I used to play when I was young. It was under that wooden treehouse that Perry saved my younger self. Because of that, the treehouse was both my secret base and the place where I fell in love with him.However, the treehouse was no longer as quiet as it used to be. Two intertwined legs were sticking
Young Alaric did not have the seriousness and reservations that he later possessed as Silverania's Alpha King. Currently, he was full of vigor and strength.Everyone stood up to welcome the young heir. Over the years, Alaric would use his clever mind to negotiate with the rogue packs populating the outskirts, expanding Silverania's territory without bloodshed.Everyone's eyes were on him, but his eagle-eyed gaze was fixed upon me.At that moment, Perry glanced at his pocket watch and said, "I have to pick someone up. Behave yourself in the meantime."He was already hurrying out of the banquet hall as he spoke.I ignored him, staring directly at Alaric instead. Alaric also seemed to have noticed me return his gaze, continuing to look at me.After he finally finished his conversation with Lacus and Adelaide, he immediately strode over to my side and stood where Perry had been sitting just now.He exchanged pleasantries with the nobles, then tugged me into sitting down and courteou

I looked speechlessly at Perry, who was standing on the balcony and knocking ceaselessly on the window. Did he think I would fall for the same trick twice?Back when I realized that he had entered my room through the window, I had ordered people to install the sturdiest mechanism they could on it so that it could not be opened anymore from the outside.Worried that the sound of him continuing to knock on my window would alert other people and thus reach Alpha King's and Luna Queen's ears, Perry could only use the mind-link to communicate with me from outside the window."Let me in, Sylvia," he demanded. "I have something to say to you.""Well, I don't, so please leave," I replied ruthlessly."You—I'm telling you, Sylvia, if you marry Alaric just like this, you're going to regret it! Listen. You were married to me in one of your previous lives, and you loved me so much that you were even willing to die for me!"You're only marrying Alaric right now because your jealousy at seeing
"Mind your manners, Perry!" Luna Queen admonished sternly.Perry had no choice but to suppress his shock and sit down, his hands clasped tightly together. Blood flowed constantly from his hands where his nails had dug into his skin.Shirley anxiously helped him treat his wounds, but he completely ignored her actions. Instead, he kept his gaze on me and Alaric, who were being showered with blessings and praise from the people present.After the banquet ended, Alaric very courteously escorted me to my room.He got down on one knee and lavished me with heartfelt praises for how beautiful I looked that night, then invited me to go out on a trip with him the next day. My heart beating fast, I shyly accepted his invitation.I returned to my room, but before I could even turn on the lights, a pair of hands suddenly hugged me from behind in the darkness."Why is Alaric the one who's marrying you, Sylvia?" demanded Perry.I could hear the sound of him gnashing his teeth coming from behin
