《After Rebirth, I Left the Mate Who Once Died for Me》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 10 章

In my last life, on this same day, I had been full of hope. I'd hinted that he should come with me to Moonlight Vale to pray.All I'd gotten was his cold sneer. "We're mates in name only. There's no sincerity here. The Moon Goddess would die of frustration if we showed up praying."So this time, I expected nothing.Then Oscar said, almost casually, "I can go pray with you. But forget about a honeymoon. The pack is busy. I don't have time."I looked at him, surprised. Then I understood.Oscar's tongue could be cruel, but he wasn't a cruel person.In fact, he had every quality an Alpha heir was supposed to have. Kind. Responsible. Honorable.Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked his life for mine .The first time was when we were ten, on a wilderness training exercise. A landslide trapped us in a cave. He tricked me into eating the last of the food and water—gave me his only chance of survival. If the rescue team hadn't reached us in time, he would have died in that cave.The second time wa

I stood there, frozen. What had the Alpha and Luna said to Catherine that made her swallow poison?I didn't know much about Catherine. Oscar might have loved her, but I rarely saw her in person.Still, the way she had bolted from our marking ceremony in my last life—straight into the path of rogue wolves—suggested she wasn't exactly stable to begin with.Wait.Then it hit me. This was my chance to complete Task Two.Save Catherine.I looked at Oscar. "What do you need me to do? Should I donate blood?"I remembered—Oscar had once told me Catherine and I shared the same rare blood type. With this kind of poisoning, she'd need a full transfusion. I might be the only one who could save her.Oscar drew in a sharp breath. His voice came out too loud."You think I won't take you up on it? You owe her that much."It might have been my imagination, but the volume seemed forced—like he was covering up a tremor underneath.There wasn't time to figure him out.I grabbed his hand and ran for the ho

(Oscar's POV)Catherine. My fated mate?“Are you kidding me?”Before I could process it, Catherine pushed past everyone in the doorway and threw herself at me.The second I saw her, I felt it—that bond. Familiar and wrong at the same time.My wolf was back. But something was off with him. Way off.How else could he insist that the woman in front of me was my fated mate?Catherine's eyes were shining with tears. "Oscar. Oscar, this whole time—it was us. We're each other's fated mates. We can be together.""No—"It was out of my mouth before I could stop it.Then my father's voice came down on me from behind, hard."No what? Oscar, do you think this is a game? Go change. The marking ceremony with Catherine is starting."I turned to him, stunned. "What is this. Aria is my fated mate."He let out a long sigh. "Aria knew you loved Catherine. The prophecy can't be ignored. So she asked the Moon Goddess to transfer the fated mate bond from you and her to you and Catherine."The assistant besi

(Aria's POV)I had waited years to hear him say that.But he was too late.I kept my voice level. "You're too late, Oscar. Go home."He grabbed my hand. The look in his eyes was something close to desperate."Why? Did you fall for someone else?""No, I just—""If it's not someone else," he cut in, voice rising, "then why are you suddenly leaving? You loved me, didn't you? Or was that all an act this whole time? Was it the prophecy. You only pretended because of the prophecy."I hadn't expected that. I didn't know what to say.His expression broke. "So you were lying. The whole time."I stayed quiet for a long moment. "I wasn't lying, Oscar. I really did love you. We grew up together. We went through too much. There's no way that doesn't turn into something. The day I learned I was your fated mate was the happiest day of my life.""But you kept pushing me away. You and Catherine ended up together. Catherine is the one you wanted."His words came fast and rough. "No. I never wanted her.

(Aria's POV)The men froze. I broke loose.Oscar and I went at them together.There were more of them, but the two of us were strong, and we'd always fought well as a team. Soon enough they were on the floor, groaning.Oscar found rope and tied them up. He stood, wiped his forehead, and the first thing out of his mouth wasn't What happened."You said yes. Just now. I heard you."When I didn't answer, his brow furrowed. "Are you taking it back?"I started to speak. He shoved me out of the way—"Look out!"A gunshot.My head went white. I lost it. I grabbed a knife and drove it into the gunman, again, and again.He went still in seconds.I called the ambulance with shaking hands. I knelt next to Oscar and pressed down on the wound, hard, useless.The blood wouldn't stop. I pressed and it kept coming. Silver bullet.Just like last time.Was this what was waiting for him every time he was with me. Was he going to keep dying for me. Over and over.I sobbed. "I said yes. I said yes. Just sta
