Short filmTranscript
00:12Reborn back to the day my sister and I were choosing our mates.
00:15I awakened the power of mind reading.
00:19This time, I must snatch that gentle man away in advance.
00:28Hello, I am Sheila. I hope to become your mate.
00:32Clearly, Sheila had also been reborn with the memories of her past life.
00:36Since your sister has chosen Julian, you will fulfill the pact with the Silverfrost Pack and become the mate of
00:41the Lion King, Raymond.
00:43So what if Raymond is the Lycan King? He was severely wounded at the border and lost his male function
00:48long ago.
00:49So, my good sister, in this life, you can take the suffering in my place.
00:57Watching her barely contain joy, I almost laughed out loud.
01:02Did she honestly think that the man I married in my past life was someone of good character?
01:15In our past life, my sister, Sheila, snatched King Raymond first.
01:19Raymond was the most handsome, pure-blood alpha on the entire continent, but he was obsessed with expanding his territory
01:27all day long.
01:29The Sheila of my past life tries to seduce him every night, but was thrown out of his bedchamber every
01:35single time.
01:35In the end, because she could not give birth to an heir, the Luna Down Hoard deemed her a useless
01:41waste and expelled her from the castle.
01:44As for Julian, whom I married, although he was just an Illidimus son with no inheritance rights, he gave me
01:49the utmost gentle love on the surface.
01:52Accompanying me on walks every day, hosting banquets for me, and holding me up as the happiest woman before outsiders,
01:58making the entire pack envy me.
02:00It was not until later, when King Raymond died unexpectedly, that Julian naturally inherited the throne, and I became the
02:08supreme Luna of the pack.
02:11Sheila was driven mad with jealousy.
02:14While I was out inspecting the throne room, she colluded with a dark wizard and drove a rampaging beast to
02:19attack my carriage, dying together with me.
02:22However, what she did not know was that Julian's so-called gentleness was nothing but a scam.
02:29Since she wants this hypocrite in this life, I will gladly give him to her.
02:38As you wish, father. It is my honor to accompany his majesty, Raymond.
02:43As soon as I drew close, I felt atop the terrifying auras of Alpha.
02:46Wonder my sister was hurt so badly him in our past life.
02:49I tried to listen to Raymond's inner thoughts, but his mind was as silent as stagnant water.
02:56What a beautiful little darling. She will make the perfect plaything.
03:04Hearing this sentence, a shudder went through my whole body, and I instinctively grabbed Raymond's large, rough, clappish hand.
03:12Although his personality was cold, his hand was very warm.
03:24Although he was dangerous, at least his character was straightforward.
03:30In this life, I will use the power of this Lycan king to hold power and wealth firmly in my
03:35own hands.
03:39On this day in our past life, Raymond did not show up at the altar at all.
03:43On the contrary, Julian arrived early in the morning holding fresh flowers, winning the praise of the entire pack.
03:49In this life, it was still the same.
03:50Julian, wearing a pure white formal suit, gently lifted Sheila onto a wild dire wolf.
03:57When passing by me, Sheila deliberately made the dire wolf stop and taunted.
04:01Scarlet, your Lycan king doesn't seem to take this wedding seriously at all.
04:04Don't trouble yourself, Sheila. Just mind yourself, and don't fall off.
04:08Her face darkened, and she cursed viciously in her heart.
04:12Smile all you want.
04:14When you spend your wedding night all alone in an empty bed tonight, let's see if you can still laugh.
04:19To do Raymond's absence, I faced the same malicious guy.
04:22Sheila's Meryl grew even more braven.
04:24In front of all the elders, she hooked her arms around Julian's neck and declared loudly,
04:29I love you, Julian.
04:30Then, she kissed Julian's lips fiercely.
04:33After the kiss ended, her face was completely flushed, and she stared at me provocatively.
04:38I knew she wanted to see me react the way she did in our past life.
04:41At this time in our past life, because Sheila felt humiliated, she flew into a rage at the altar and
04:47even knocked over the holy water,
04:48which caused her to suffer endless punishment in the castle after marriage.
04:52I will never repeat the mistakes she made.
05:00Warriors and Elders of the Silver Frost Pack
05:04His Majesty Raymond is presiding over an extremely important defense negotiation at the border today.
05:10Tonight's totem oath will be completed by me, on his behalf.
05:14The Luna Dowager, sitting in the main C seat, showed a flash of surprise in her eyes and cast an
05:19approving look at me.
05:20The Silver Frost Pack was famous across the continent,
05:23and what they cared about most was the honor and dignity of the royal family.
05:27When the king is not present, I must uphold the dignity of the throne.
05:31Sheila also noticed the Luna Dowager's gaze, and her face twisted with jealousy.
05:37What a fake.
05:38When it's time for the allegiance oath ritual in a moment,
05:41I will definitely make you make all of sort self in public.
05:44I sneered in my heart.
05:46Being able to hear other people's thoughts is truly a trump card.
05:50When it came to the step of stepping forward to take the oath to the Luna Dowager,
05:54I lifted the hem of my long skirt and walked toward the main seat.
05:58Sheila's gaze remained fixed on my feet,
06:00counting silently in her heart.
06:02One, two, three, full!
06:16Because Sheila had lunged forward with too much force,
06:19she completely missed her footing and crashed heavily onto the stone floor.
06:22Sheila, are you alright?
06:24The icy holy water splashed all over her, leaving her looking utterly wretched.
06:28But I heard the venom in his heart.
06:30What an absolute idiot.
06:34The Luna Dowager's face darkened with severe displeasure.
06:41So clumsy and reckless.
06:44Is this any way for the wife of a second run to behave?
06:47I...
06:48I'm sorry, Mother.
06:50I didn't mean to.
06:51The Luna Dowager turned to look at me, her eyes softening with approval.
06:54Scarlet,
06:55tonight I will personally command Raymond to return to the castle to accompany you.
07:00I will not have you slighted on your first night.
07:03Late that night, Raymond returned, the scent of winter frost and exhaustion clinging to his heavy cloak.
07:08I walked over quietly and took the coat he had shed.
07:11Your Majesty, you must be weary from today's journey.
07:14He only gave me a piercing, cold glance before walking straight into the bathing room.
07:19In our past life, Sheila had relapsed to spend her wedding night in a cold, empty bed,
07:23becoming the laughingstock of the entire castle.
07:25Unable to swallow her humiliation, she had gone to complain to the Luna Dowager.
07:33When Raymond emerged wearing a loose black bathrobe,
07:36his damp hair clinging to his forehead,
07:38he saw me curled up on the narrow chaise lounge.
07:41Scarlet, are you testing my patience?
07:43On our wedding night, my Luna would rather sleep on a chaise line.
07:49No, Your Majesty.
07:51Ours is merely a political marriage born of alliance,
07:54divide of any emotional foundation.
07:56Forcing the fulfillment of marital duties would only be a torment to us both.
08:00Why don't we agree to a cooperation instead?
08:04Cooperation?
08:05We act as a devoted couple in public to uphold the absolute honor of the royal family.
08:09I will manage the castle affairs flawlessly for you,
08:12and in return, you grant me the supreme authority that belongs to a Luna.
08:16As for affection and physical intimacy,
08:18I will never demand them from you.
08:22You're far more interesting than I anticipated, Scarlet.
08:26Deal.
08:27I quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
08:29In our past life, rumors claimed his personality was tyrannical,
08:32and that he had lost his male capability after a border war.
08:38The next morning, I was awakened by a series of rhythmic heavy thuds.
08:43Rubbing my eyes, I sat up only to find Raymond,
08:45shirtless, performing one-handed push-ups on the carpet.
08:48Sweat flowed freely along the sculpted muscles of his back and shoulders.
08:52This physique was countless times more powerful than Julian's.
08:56Had your fill of watching?
08:58A sudden blush rushed to my face, and I quickly averted my eyes.
09:02Get dressed, come with me to the dining hall.
09:06The servants are watching.
09:08Do not forget our cooperation.
09:12My arm looped neatly through Raymond's.
09:14No sooner had we reached the corridor than we ran straight into Sheila and Julian,
09:18their fingers tightly interlaced.
09:23Sheila was wearing a provocatively low-cut silk dress today.
09:27Her neck and collarbones deliberately covered in dark hickeys.
09:31Wrapped up so tightly, she's definitely covered in bruises from Raymond
09:34abusing her last night, intentionally covering them up.
09:37Scarlet, how was your wedding night?
09:39Was His Majesty the Lion King gentle?
09:42Julian tired me out so much with his relentless tossing and turning last night.
09:46Sheila, according to the ancient laws of the Silver Frost Pack,
09:50you should respectfully address me as Your Grace the Luna, or Elder's Sister's Law.
09:55His Majesty Raymond hasn't even spoken himself.
09:58What gives you the right to demand such deference from me?
10:01Raymond, look at the Luna you married.
10:04Isn't she acting far above her state?
10:07Damn fool.
10:09Julian, what is the first article of the Silver Frost Pack code?
10:13Julian's head snapped down immediately.
10:14Under the sheer weight of Bloodline Domino, his legs trembled involuntarily.
10:20The next second, Julian slaps Sheila hard across the face.
10:31Kneel and greet the Lycan King and Her Grace the Luna immediately.
10:37Greetings, Your Majesty.
10:39Greetings, Her Grace the Luna.
10:41Take her to receive 30 flashes.
10:43Do not let her filthy blood stain the dining hall carpet.
10:46Raymond commanded, not even deigning, to look at them.
10:49He slid a firm arm around my waist, guiding me straight past their kneeling forms.
10:54In my past life, in order to survive Julian's whim, I had memorized these pack codes backward and forward.
11:00The first iron rule of Silver Frost.
11:02Any lower-ranking werewolf who shows disrespect to the Lycan King or the Luna shall receive 30 lashes.
11:08Her face was deathly pale, and she sat shivering in her chair.
11:11However, I caught a sharp movement beneath the table.
11:14Hidden by the long tablecloth, Julian was gripping Sheila's hand, his sharp wolf claws digging deep into the flesh of
11:20her knuckles.
11:20Blood dripped onto the floor.
11:22Julian's inner voice was roaring with murderous rage.
11:24Bitch!
11:25Because of your stupidity, I lost all my dignity in front of Raymond today.
11:29Sheila's body convulsed in agony, not daring to utter a single sound.
11:33In my past life, less than three days into our marriage, Julian had revealed his true nature as a sadistic
11:39abuser.
11:39He had tormented me with the cruelest methods while playing the perfect loving husband.
11:45Sheila, in this life you fought so hard to marry this poisonous snake yourself.
11:49Enjoy his venom slowly.
11:55The Luna Dowager walked into the hall, leaning heavily on her scepter.
11:59We all rose to greet her.
12:00The Luna Dowager gave a slight nod of acknowledgement, but the moment her gaze landed on Sheila, her expression turned
12:05thunderous.
12:06Mother, I apologize for my disgraceful appearance.
12:09It's only because Julian was far too passionate last night.
12:12He mentioned he hopes we can conceive a strong heir for the Silver Frost Pack as soon as possible.
12:17Shameless creature!
12:21The dining table of the Silverfall Royal Family is no place for you to flaunt your bedchambered yonchery, dressed so
12:26provocatively.
12:27Covered in mating marks, where have you put the Royal Family's dignity?
12:31Mother, I'm sorry. I didn't know the rules.
12:35Mother, it is entirely my fault.
12:37I was too overcome and with passion last night, and failed to remind her of the castle's sacred laws.
12:42Please punish me, and do not let our ignorance ruin your health.
12:45Looking at the two of them groveling like dogs on the floor, I elegantly cut a piece of medium-rare
12:49venison and brought it to my lips.
12:51Today's breakfast tasted absolutely wonderful.
12:56Hmm.
12:58The Luna Dowager gave a cold snort and signaled for the breakfast to resume.
13:03Raymond remained silent throughout the tense meal.
13:08Thank you, darling.
13:12Scarlet, after breakfast, have Raymond take you to the Central Sanctum.
13:17As Silverfold's Luna, you must begin overseeing the pack's core industries and our magic potion supply chain.
13:25I accepted gracefully.
13:27In my past life, the Luna Dowager had offered the exact same keys to power to Sheila, but back then
13:32Sheila had cautly excused herself.
13:33She had severed her own hands from the reins of power, which was precisely why she ended up when she
13:37was later driven out of the castle.
13:39Soon after, the Royal Carriage was speeding along the road, bearing us toward the Sacred Central Sanctum.
13:44Inside the jotting carriage, I tried once more to focus my mind and listen to Raymond's thoughts, but his mind
13:50was terrifyingly silent.
13:59Upon our arrival at the Sanctum, he escorted me to a private meeting chamber.
14:05Stay here. Do not wander off.
14:08He commanded, his long fingers giving the back of my neck a brief, surprisingly soothing pinched before he turned and
14:14strode out.
14:17Watching his cigarette recede, an unbide instinct urged me to follow him quietly.
14:28Your Majesty, this is a priceless ancient formula capable of completely purifying the silver poison that afflicts lichens.
14:35Three million gold coins. Not a single coin less.
14:38Thank the heavens I did my research before risking this trip.
14:42The silver frost pack is filthy rich, but they are desperate to cure their silver poison.
14:46This so-called ancient formula is nothing but the cheapest hallucinogenic weeds from the southern swamps mixed with a bit
14:51of glowing tree sap.
14:52It didn't even cost me a few copperboines to brew.
14:54I am going to absolutely fly these wealthy beasts.
15:07A dose of Hallucinodort's fluorescent sap mixed with glowing grass juice.
15:12This stuff is useless except for creating the illusion that wounds are healing.
15:16Monsieur Pierre, attempting the Supreme Lyocan King with a poison worth less than a handful of copers, who gave you
15:22the audacity?
15:22The Lyman King was lounging with his long legs crossed lazily.
15:25His golden eyes held no anger at my sudden ambrosia.
15:28Instead, they danced with amusement.
15:29He raised in highbrow, gesturing with a tilt of his hand as if to say,
15:32Please, continue.
15:33He was not angry. In fact, he was entirely indulging my overstep.
15:40However, you have already launched an extensive marketing campaign across the major auction houses of the western continents.
15:45The silver frost pack has no use for its non-existent effects,
15:47but we do require its grand reputation to pacify the anxieties of our lower-ranking wolves.
15:51In consideration of the vast distribution network you control, I will offer you this much.
15:58One million gold coins?
16:00No, no, no. What I meant was 10,000 gold coins.
16:05My lady! Who do you think you are? How could you make such an insulting offer?
16:11Since the silver frost pack lacks any true sincerity, this deal is off. I will take my formula elsewhere.
16:18My lady! Who do you think you are?
16:20Did you truly believe you could walk out of the north alive?
16:23The one million gold coins is for the hidden syndicates operating behind your back.
16:28You will sign this channel transfer contract.
16:31And then, you will bow to my wife and beg forgiveness for your vile insolence.
16:45My profoundest apologies, your grace, the noble Luna.
17:00That formula is worthless.
17:02You knew with absolute certainty that he was a fraudulent thief.
17:05Why did you still authorize a million gold coins for him?
17:08How did you know this?
17:11How did you know this?
17:12How did you know this?
17:14Scarlet, you possessed brilliant talent.
17:16But you do not yet understand the game of politics.
17:19Pierre is in fool, but the vast smuggling channels he crossed the western continents are priceless.
17:23What I purchased today was not his potion, it was his infrastructure.
17:26Once I turn around and leak this cure through his channels to our rival vampire clans and their ranks.
17:30But it will not also allow the silver frost pack to reap a hundred times the initial profit.
17:37I was completely, completely stunned.
17:41So this was the depth and chilling ambition of a pure-blood Alpha King.
17:48But I find myself deeply curious, my Luna.
17:52How did a Duke's sheltered daughter, raised within the cloated walls of a peaceful southern manor,
17:58recognize at a single glance a black market chemical potion?
18:05He was too close, so close that I could count his eyelashes and feel the dangerous rhythmic rise and fall
18:11of his chest pressing against the fabric of my dress.
18:13A woman's intuition, Your Majesty.
18:15Some of us simply possess an innate sensitivity towards herbs and sap.
18:19Your Majesty, since we are officially partners in this cooperation,
18:22I request that you grant me authority over the southern border territory and the abandoned merchant guild located there.
18:28The betrayal of my past life had carved a permanent bust into my soul.
18:31Relying on a man's favor is the most dangerous gamble of all.
18:34I had to amass my own independent wealth and influence.
18:37Once I secured enough capital, no matter how chaotic the political tides became, I would always possess an escape route.
18:43Hearing my request, the curve of Raymond's lips deepened into a smirk.
18:47He leaned in even closer, his nose grazing the hollow of my neck as he inhaled my scent deeply.
18:52Scarlet, you are a beautifully ambitious creature.
18:58Tell me, you wouldn't happen to be planning to tear up our sacred marriage contract and flee across the border.
19:08The very moment you have hoarded enough gold to survive without me, would you?
19:14Could this terrifying man also read minds?
19:17His beast-like, predatory intuition was sharper than a blade.
19:20Of course not, Your Majesty.
19:22I merely wish to relieve my alpha of the administrative headache caused by those unruly rogue packs at the border.
19:28I will grant you the territory, Scarlet.
19:31But before you take the reins, you will remain here at the Sanctum, learning directly from me what it truly
19:37means to be a sovereign ruler.
19:42In the days that followed, I remained by Raymond's side, studying the intricate administrative machinery required to rule the entire
19:49Silverfrost pack.
19:51One evening, Raymond surprisingly took the initiative to suggest taking me to dine at the city's most luxurious establishment, the
19:57Obsidian Crest.
19:58It was there that we ran directly into Julian and Sheila.
20:01Sheila was holding a silver knife, attentively slicing a prime cut of venison loin for Julian.
20:05The exact moment she saw Raymond and me walking side by side toward them, her face contorted.
20:09Damn it.
20:10Running into this bitch at a time like this.
20:12Today, I absolutely cannot let her overshadow me.
20:16Greetings, Your Majesty the Alpha King.
20:18Greetings, Your Grace the Luna.
20:20What a fascinating coincidence, Sheila.
20:22Raymond did not repel my sudden closeness.
20:24Instead, he subtly shifted his posture, pulling me noticeably closer against the warmth of his powerful body.
20:29Brother.
20:31Elder sister-in-law.
20:32Raymond did not deign to spare them a glance.
20:34The icy aura unique to Absolute Sovereigns forced both of them to instinctively retreat half a step.
20:39Keeping his arm wrapped around my waist, he guided me past them toward the royal family's private preneurial.
20:44Behind us, I could feel Sheila's gaze locked onto my back, her sharp nails digging deep into her palms.
20:50Halfway through the feast, I excused myself to the powder room.
20:52I had barely finished washing my hands when a tattered shadow suddenly blocked it.
20:57Sheila slammed the heavy door shut, locking it from the inside, her face a mask of twisted venomous jealousy.
21:03Scarlet, stop putting on this pathetic act.
21:06Raymond is nothing but an impotent brute, a ruthless tyrant.
21:11You must be getting tortured, aren't you?
21:17I offered her a smile, my gaze shifting deliberately to the faint scars peeking out from the edge of her
21:22sleeve.
21:23Oh, my dear sister, whatever happened to your wrist, why is it riddled with the puncture wounds unique to dark
21:28magic silver needles?
21:30Mind your own business!
21:32This is merely an intimate game between Julian and me, you would understand, of course.
21:36After all, Raymond hasn't even bothered to lay a finger on you yet, has he?
21:39Unlike my Julian, who craves my body, utterly exhausting me with his passion.
21:44Then that is truly a grand milestone worth celebrating.
21:47I wish you and your husband an eternity of such...
21:52...boundless joy.
21:52I attempted to step around her, but within her mind, a sudden shriek erupted.
21:57Die, you bitch!
21:58In the next fraction of a second, her sharp, unsheathed wolf claws came slashing toward my face.
22:03The door was shattered inward with a deafening crack.
22:05In a blur of motion, Raymond's boot connected with Sheila's torso, sending her flying violently across the room.
22:10Laying your filthy hands on my Luna, Sheila do not tempt me to find out how quickly your spine cracks.
22:18According to the laws of the Silver Frost Pack, and physical assault on the Luna was her offense, punishable by
22:24being thrown into the dungeons to feed the venomous serpents.
22:27In our past life, Sheila had locked me in those depths once.
22:30Therefore, she knew better than anyone the horrors that awaited within those dark cells.
22:35Your Majesty! Scarlet provoked me first! Please, I beg of you, do not cast me into the pit!
22:40Take your woman to the dungeons. Let her clear her mind within the dark for seven days, short by a
22:44single hour,
22:44and you will step into the pits to serve the remainder of her sentence.
22:47Vile bitch! It would be a blessing if the Vipers devoured her down there.
22:51She does nothing but drag me into ruin with her utter stupidity.
22:55Upon our return to the royal bedchamber, Raymond acted uncharacteristically frantic.
23:00He pushed me gently down onto the sofa.
23:04Are you harmed?
23:07I am perfectly fine. She never touched a single thread, my heart hammering.
23:11I placed my palms against his chest, attempting to create distance.
23:16You were gone too long. Tell me the truth, Scarlet. Why did she attack you? What words passed between you
23:22two?
23:25Sheila felt the need to brag about how remarkably attentive Julian is in her bed every night.
23:30She was mocking you, for not claiming your rights, for leaving me untouched since our wedding night.
23:36That is what triggered her rage.
23:38So, is my Luna subtly lodging a complaint?
23:43Are you aggrieved that I have neglected my duties since our wedding night?
23:47Hmm?
23:47No, your majesty, you have entirely misunderstood. I never implied...
23:52Scarlet?
23:53Raymond leaned down, almost brushing my lips.
23:55The mate bond already recognizes us.
23:59We are bound.
24:01Have you truly never once desired to explore what fated mates do beneath the sheets?
24:06The heat radiating from his skin was terrifyingly high, saturating the air with his dominant alpha pheromones.
24:12Every primal instinct in my body was damnably drawn to him, screaming for surrender, but my rigid reason flashed red
24:18alerts.
24:19No, men are nothing but a beautiful poison.
24:22Were the agonizing lessons of my past life not enough, I must never allow my heart to fall into his
24:26custody.
24:26Of course not, your majesty, I made my terms clear from the very beginning.
24:30I accepted this marriage solely because I required the protection and leverage of the Silver Frost Pack to survive.
24:35As for the bearing of airs or the pursuit of physical pleasure, I do not desire it, nor will I
24:40ever be interested.
24:41Is that truly all I am to you? A shield of convenience?
24:45That is all.
24:52The next day, Raymond fulfilled his promise and granted me full authority over the Silver Frost Pack's magic potion merchant
24:59guild and supply chain located in the south.
25:01I began to devote all my energy to running the Southern Merchant Guild.
25:05My goal was very clear, to utilize the resources in my hands to earn 10 million gold coins before the
25:11time of Raymond's death in my past life.
25:13In the days that followed, I won over all kinds of high-level bounty hunters, bringing astonishing profits to the
25:18Merchant Guild.
25:19Upon learning of this, the Luna Dowager was overjoyed and allowed me to take 20% of every trade as
25:25my personal compensation.
25:26On the other side, Sheila finally ended her punishment and was released from the dungeons.
25:31In the evening, I finished my work and returned to the castle, running into Sheila and Julian in the courtyard.
25:37Sheila had become emaciated and out of shape, yet she still wore heavy makeup as she walked toward me holding
25:41Julian's arm.
25:43Elder sister-in-law, I have already applied to mother.
25:46Starting tomorrow, I will follow you to the Southern Merchant Gang to learn the business, hoping to share some of
25:51the administrative pressure for you.
25:52She kept her head bowed, appearing incredibly submissive, but at the same time, I heard both of their inner thoughts,
25:58Julian.
25:59Soon, once the two of you are dead, I will become the Alpha King.
26:01Haha, you fools. I will make you all die together very soon.
26:04The wealth of the entire Silver Frost Pack will be mine alone in the end.
26:07So that was it. In my past life, Raymond did not die from an accident at all.
26:11In this life, Julian not only wanted to murder his own older brother, but he also wanted to treat me
26:16as prey.
26:17And Sheila, too, was planning how to kill Julian.
26:20Alright, since you are so ambitious, report directly to the Southern Merchant Gang tomorrow.
26:24Since you want to play this game so badly, I will fulfill your wish.
