Winning Back the Wife

After I risked my life to save the Alpha King, he promised to grant me one wish. While everyone expected me to choose to mate with Kay, the current Alpha of Stormfang Pack, I publicly declared my intention to bind with Eli. He was Kay's half-brother, the illegitimate son of the former Alpha who had been exiled abroad. No one knows that I've died once before. In my past life, after I became Kay's fated mate, I diligently fulfilled my role as Luna. But he always favored my stepsister, Lia. That day, when the pack was attacked, I went to find him for protection. When I desperately found him, I discovered that Kai was desperately protecting Lea, and the two of them were even kissing passionately in danger. To shield Lia, he pushed me forward to face the rogue pack alone. I'll never forget the words he said as he left, holding the weeping Lia in his arms: "She needs protecting more than you do." So this time, I chose to give up on Kay. If I had to choose someone from Stormfang Pack for a mating bond, I'd rather choose Eli. I wanted to be in control of my own destiny. But this time, after I chose Eli as my mate, Kay went completely crazy.

Although premise is similar to other stories, this one has twists and turns that make it stand out. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Congratulations to the writer.

Chapter 1
The day after the mating announcement was made, I ran into Kay and his Gamma guards at the edge of the training grounds."Hey, Alpha, look who's here," one of the Gamma guards nudged Kay with his elbow, his tone laced with suggestive amusement. "Your 'future Luna.'"In an instant, all eyes from the nearby warriors landed on me.Kay turned, crossing his arms, those perpetually arrogant gray eyes sweeping over me with clear impatience."Ella," he began, his voice icy. "Using the Alpha King's promise to force my hand? Lia was right. You'll stop at nothing to get what you want. Your methods are vicious."My chest tightened at the mention of Eli, who also belonged to Stormfang Pack. No matter how prepared I was for this, the undisguised hate in Kay's eyes still felt like a needle, pricking at the memories of my past life.I took a deep breath, forcing down the surge of emotion and keeping my voice steady. "I think you've got it wrong. The one I chose isn't you. It's Eli...""You're insane?!

Chapter 2
Back in my room, I went to the most hidden drawer and pulled out an old iron box. Inside was a protective amulet that smelled of mint. On it was the Alpha insignia of the Stormfang Pack.When I was ten, I was small for my age and the other pups used to bully me. One freezing winter, one of them shoved me into a frozen lake.I struggled and screamed for help, but no one came.Just as the icy water was starting to pull me under and I was losing consciousness, a small boy risked his life to save me. All I saw was a blurry figure before I blacked out. When I woke up, the only thing beside me was this amulet.I recognized the pack's insignia. And at the time, Kay was the only young heir to the Stormfang Pack that anyone knew about, so I just assumed it was him who had rescued me. From that moment on, I was completely smitten with him.But in my last life, I gave him everything and ended up dying a horrible death.Now that I've been given a second chance, I have more important things to do.

Chapter 3
In my previous life, though Kay and Lia's relationship existed, it was never so public. In front of pack members, Kay still maintained a respectful facade toward me as his Luna.Now, however, they barely hid their affair at all.No wonder that after just two or three days, the entire pack was whispering about them.As I thought about my past life, my gaze turned cold.After becoming Kay's mate, Stormfang Pack's power and wealth had grown rapidly, eventually elevating us to a position among the top five strongest packs in northern territories.The elders were highly pleased with me, calling me the pack's guardian spirit.Even though Kay remained cold toward me, their approval provided a false sense of warmth.But when I actually witnessed Kay and Lia together in secret, and realized that every pack member—including those same elders who praised me—was helping cover it up for him...All my illusions were shattered.My father entered my room to inform me that Eli would soon be finishing h

Chapter 4
The wounds from the silver whip were healing slowly. But I didn't have much time to wallow in pain.Eli's official bonding ceremony was approaching, and according to pack tradition, I needed to prepare a gift that would symbolize my feelings for him.A few days later, when I felt a thin scab had formed on my back and it had stopped bleeding easily, I decided to visit the tribal market.The sunlight was a bit harsh as I moved slowly, careful not to aggravate the injuries on my back.You always run into people you'd rather avoid. I had just stopped at a weapon stand when I heard a voice that made my back stiffen."Ella?"Kay and Lia were not far away. Lia was already carrying several exquisite bags, clinging to Kay's arm. When she saw me, her face immediately took on that familiar, timid expression.Kay released Lia and walked toward me, his brow habitually furrowed. "You still look pale. Still upset about what happened last time?"He looked me over with a suffocating "generosity" in his

Chapter 5
Eli stood there, tall and imposing, with an elegant bearing.Then, his gaze fell upon me, pausing slightly.I saw he was wearing an amulet—one identical to the one I'd clutched in my hand after waking up as a child, after being rescued from a frozen lake.Seeing that exact same amulet, my mind was filled with questions. Could it be...But on this important pack gathering day, I couldn't directly ask Eli about it. I would have to wait quietly until the party ended.Kay's grip on my wrist loosened unconsciously, but he immediately reacted as if his authority had been challenged, gripping me even tighter. He snarled at Eli, "Eli! This doesn't concern you! This is between me and my future mate!""Future mate?" There was no emotion in Eli's gray eyes. He stepped forward, reaching us in just a few strides. He didn't look at Kay, his gaze fixed on my wrist, which was turning red from his grip. "I think you're mistaken, Kay. The mate Ella chose is me."He reached out and, instead of roughly pu

Chapter 6
The banquet hall was filled with an eerie silence. Everyone was stunned by the series of revelations.Eli's identity, authority, and the absolute power and composure he had demonstrated deeply intimidated every Stormfang member present.Eli acted as if nothing had happened. He turned to the crowd and raised his wine glass, his voice steady. "Just a small interruption. Please excuse us. Let the ceremony continue. Enjoy the food and drink."His composure instantly eased the awkward atmosphere. The music began to play again as people cautiously resumed their conversations, but their eyes couldn't help but follow Eli with reverence.Eli led me to the reserved seats of honor. He personally pulled out my chair and only sat down next to me after I was seated.For the rest of the evening, he took care of me almost constantly.He carefully carved perfectly roasted, tender ribs, removing all the tiny bones before placing them on my plate. He remembered I disliked a certain bitter herb and meticu

Chapter 7
I stared at him in peace. After two lifetimes, I had never truly seen Kay for who he was. He always found a new way to push the boundaries of my understanding of "shameless."I broke free from his grip and shoved him hard. "You're the one who needs to stop this nonsense! Remember your place! According to pack hierarchy, I'm about to become your sister-in-law!"Seeing that neither threats nor persuasion worked, Kay actually tried to overwhelm me with a stronger Alpha aura. He leaned in, baring his fangs slightly, attempting a forceful contact that would carry a marking implication. "I won't allow it! You're fated to be my mate!"I squeezed my eyes shut, resisting with all my might, my nails even tearing at the skin on his arm. Just as I was beginning to lose strength, a more powerful, steadier force intervened instantly, and I found myself wrapped in a warm embrace that smelled of pine and cold wilderness.It was Eli. He draped his cloak over my shoulders before throwing a punch that la

Chapter 8
A few days later, when Eli and I were in the pack house's tactical room, finalizing our discussion on the new defense scrolls spread across the large stone table.Lia burst in.She was no longer the carefully crafted fragile version of herself I was used to. Her hair was disheveled, her face pale, and her eyes red and swollen. The dress that once fit her snugly now seemed tight around her slender waist, with a slight bulge in her abdomen revealing her pregnancy.She didn't look at Eli, immediately collapsing to her knees before me with a thud. She desperately grabbed the hem of my dress, tears streaming down her face as she cried out in a shrill voice:"Ella, please! I was wrong! I know I was wrong! Please, I'm begging you, forgive me! Please talk to Kay, get him to acknowledge this baby! Without him, both me and the baby will die! Please... please for old times' sake, when we were like sisters!"She trembled as she cried, playing the part of someone with no where left to turn.Had I n

Chapter 9
My childhood dream had finally been realized in the most perfect way.I wore the mating dress passed down from my mother, and under the witness of the ancient oaks, I became bound to the Alpha my heart had truly desired.Just as we faced the moon, about to recite the ancient binding vows and promise our eternal loyalty, a figure suddenly burst from the observing wolves."I object!" Kay roared, his eyes bloodshot, clearly in a highly unstable state.A highly respected elder reacted first, immediately signaling the tribal guards to subdue him. "Take him away! Don't let him defile this sacred ceremony!"The elder barked at Kay with a final warning: "Kay! If you dare disrupt this ceremony again, don't ever think about setting foot on Stormfang land again!"That threat had always been enough to silence him before. But this time, he didn't back down. His face flushed red as he retorted, "Then exile me! But Ella's mate has to be me! Only me!"He turned to me, his voice urgent. "Ella! Listen t
