《I and the Villainess Got Reborn on the Same Day》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 10 章

The Great Hall of the Omega House smelled of cedar, sage, and the suffocating anxiety of fifty young women waiting to be claimed.The Elder of the great Omega house announced."The tokens have been cast. Let the fates be sealed!"I felt a sharp shove against my shoulder. My sister, Lily, leaned in, her face a mask of sisterly concern, but her eyes were darting toward the high dais where the Alphas sat.[It worked.] a voice hissed. I flinched, looking around, but Lily’s lips weren’t moving. [The Elder is blind, and the tokens are swapped. I spent my last coin on that switching spell, but it was worth it. Enjoy the dirt, Vanessa. I’m taking the throne.]It was then that I realized I was not mistaken. I wasn't dreaming at all. I truly was reborn. And, by Moon Goddess's grace, I could hear people's thoughts. Perhaps it was the Moon Goddess’s blessing to change my fate."Alpha Matthew of the Golden Sun Pack," the elder bellowed. "Step forward and claim your Lunar Match."Matthew stood. He

“Because a King shouldn't be mocked by those who aren't fit to carry his sword,” I whispered, finding a sudden spark of courage.A dark, genuine chuckle broke from his chest. “A King? Is that what you think I am?”He leaned down, his lips ghosting over the sensitive skin of my neck, right where the marking vein pulsed frantically.“A man who gives shelter to the exiled and discarded wolves is a King to me, my Alpha,” I replied.“Were you not afraid of being caught?” he asked, his eyes scanning me. “No one has seen the White Lotus Pearl Weed before. We don't know whether such a weed truly exists or is just a myth. I couldn't be caught.” I said, “And I had other tricks as well to save your face, my Alpha!”Being able to read people’s thoughts was surely going to help me. Gabriel stared at me for a while. It was intense. I tried to read his thoughts. But it was blank, which caused me panic. Why was he staring at me like that? Did he look down on me because I lied?He was of high moral

I wiped a smudge of dust from my sleeve as I approached Lily.“It’s kind of you to visit, Lily,” I said, my voice steady. “Though I’m surprised you find the ‘mud’ of this pack house suitable for your designer heels. I’d hate for you to ruin your outfit—or your reputation—by staying too long.”Lily’s smile faltered. Matthew shifted beside her, his grip on her hand tightening just enough to remind her how to behave. After spending a whole life with him, I better understand his way of threatening. But Lily seemed so occupied in showing off that she ignored him completely and began.“Oh, don’t worry about me,” Lily sneered, her voice dropping the sugary facade. “I just wanted to see if the rumors were true. Won’t Gabriel even sleep in the same room as you? How embarrassing. It’s only a matter of time before you’re cast out, just like the rest of the failures.”[Look at her,] Lily’s mind screamed. [Still acting like she’s better than me while she sleeps on a cold floor. I want to see her c

Gabriel didn't offer me a seat; he moved the map toward me, acknowledging that my mind was the most dangerous weapon in the room."The southern border is dense with cedar," I said, my finger tracing the jagged line where Gabriel’s territory bled into the neutral zones. "Matthew thinks he’s clever using silver-lined posts. He’s counting on the physical repulsion to keep your scouts back. But silver is heavy, expensive, and—above all—predictable."Gabriel leaned over the table, his shoulder brushing mine. The heat was still there, a low-frequency hum beneath the surface of his professional cool. [She’s sharper than a silver blade,] his mind murmured, a warm contrast to his cold stare at the map. "He’s trying to provoke a skirmish. If I send a full unit, he’ll claim I’m the aggressor to the Council.""Then don't send a unit," I countered, looking up at him. "Send the wind. We use the river’s current to float the posts back to his side—coated in wolfsbane grease. No blood spilled, just a

The celebratory bonfire crackled, casting dancing shadows against the stone walls of the pack house. To any observer, the scene was one of triumph. To me, it was a minefield.Lily’s smile was a porcelain mask, beautiful and fixed. But the mental barrier she had maintained—that eerie, hollow silence—had finally begun to crack under the weight of her own hubris.[I helped you take down Matthew. Now, all I need to do is kill you, him, and Gabriel. After that, I’ll be free.][And since I helped these rogue wolves, they would treat me highly.]***The next day, a meeting was held between Gabriel and Matthew, the two most powerful Alphas of the kingdom. It happened in the presence of the members of the High Council. I stood by Gabriel's side while Lily trailed behind us. Matthew was alone. The High Council made Gabriel and Matthew take certain vows that they will never interfere in each other's territory.The meeting was wrapped up quickly. But then, Matthew stepped forward and said, “Alph
