Marked by the Wolf King After Rebirth의 모든 챕터: 챕터 1 - 챕터 8

I gasped and shot upright, chest heaving.My hands—I stared at them without thinking. The skin was smooth and tight, with no age spots. Twenty years old.I'd been reborn."Elara?" A trembling voice came from nearby.I whipped around. My sister, Selene Moonveil, stood in the doorway, staring at me with the same shock on her face.She wore the white leather dress of Silver Moon's unmated females. Her long hair spilled over her shoulders, her face smooth and unwrinkled, her eyes bright and clear.Our gazes locked. Then we both spoke at once."You too—""You too—"We cut off mid-sentence.The next moment, we rushed at each other and threw our arms around one another."Moon Goddess..." Selene's voice shook. "I thought I was the only one who came back.""Me too." My throat felt raw. "Selene, we're here. Three days before the engagement."Yes. In three days, the two packs would unite through marriage.The arrangement our families had made was simple.Selene Moonveil, eldest daughter and gentl

Within two days, Ethan and I stood at our mating ceremony. The pack members had thrown everything together with surprising efficiency.Ethan's parents had died in a rogue attack years ago. As for my own family—I couldn't risk inviting them. Diana would kill me when she arrived, and I wasn't ready for that conversation. So the gathering consisted entirely of pack warriors and their mates, filling the pack house with their presence."I'm so jealous of Elara," Cynthia said out of nowhere. "She gets to marry Ethan. She's so lucky.""Not like me..." She dropped her head and started sobbing, and the entire hall went dead silent.I walked straight up to Ethan, stood on my toes, wrapped my arms around his neck, and kissed him hard.When I pulled back, I shot Cynthia a smug look. "Yeah, I am lucky, aren't I? Ethan's got the career, the power, the body... Well, not every Omega can handle a top-tier Alpha like him. A weak little Omega probably couldn't even survive an Alpha's claiming bite." I sl

"Ethan, don't you dare walk away from me!" Cynthia had woken up at some point and was sitting on the ground, soaking wet and looking downright pathetic. She pointed at me with a trembling finger and shrieked, "She pushed me in! She tried to kill me!"The crowd around us went dead silent. Every pair of eyes turned to stare at me, and I could see doubt, shock, and accusation written all over their faces."Elara, how could you do something like this!" Linda said, her voice dripping with judgment. "Poor Cynthia lost both her parents when she was just a child, and you have the heart to hurt her like this?""Exactly! Outsiders are all the same—rotten to the core!"The accusations continued to come, one after another. My fists clenched tight, and my Alpha instincts screamed at me to march over there and knock some sense into these gossiping idiots.But Ethan grabbed my arm before I could move. His palm was burning hot against my skin, and his grip was so firm I couldn't break free even if I t

"Alpha, we have absolutely nothing to do with each other, and I have no idea why this girl's been running around causing trouble using my name." Marcus' words cut through the air without a hint of mercy, and Cynthia stared at him in disbelief."Marcus, how can you be so heartless? I'm yours now, and you're saying we have nothing to do with each other?"The moment Marcus finished speaking, something shifted in Cynthia's eyes. I caught it clearly—that perpetual look of pitiful innocence flickered and darkened with malice before she whipped around to face the elder, tears suddenly streaming down her face. "Elder, I was wrong! I shouldn't have been jealous that Elara got to marry Ethan. She pushed me just now, and that's why I said all those crazy things..."She covered her face as her shoulders shook violently. "You know I've only ever had feelings for Ethan..."Murmurs rippled through the lower-ranked wolves surrounding us. The elder's gaze ping-ponged between Ethan and me, and suspicion
