That’s why I died at my own marking ceremony.
“Never again, Mother”
1 I pressed my burning eyes, letting out a soft laugh.
“In this world of predators and prey, the innocent only end up devoured.”
Such a shame it took dying once to learn that lesson.
1 left for Alpha College at eighteen.
Everything around me was foreign, but I felt no fear.
I knew too much about what would happen.
Even if the details were hazy, I remembered the major turning points,
Enough to prepare my own moves
The most crucial moment would come in two years.
In my past life, when I was twenty, Michael flew to London to meet a man named Alexander Blake.
Blake had developed drugs that could enhance Alpha power beyond normal limits.
Over the next five years, those drugs helped Michael absorb several smaller packs, consolidating his control.
I used Mother’s territory grant to secretly build my own pack.
Drawing on memories of my past life, I gathered lone wolves and small groups who would become powerful in the future.

Many were just starting out, desperate for a strong Alpha to follow.
Emma contacted me often
Weekly video calls, telling me how the other wolves I’d trained missed me.
How the competition prize had helped her training.
“The Royal Healing Academy announced their choices, Saralı didn’t even make top three!!!

“The Dean who watched our demonstration was there. Said her pitiful attempt couldn’t compare to your mastery.”
“You should’ve seen her crying to Daniel. I’ve never smiled so wide.”
“I got first place! I’m officially accepted to the Academy!”
The news reached me during my double major finals week.
Still, I smiled genuinely: “Congratulations.”
“Hurry back, Vivian. I’m still waiting to run with my Alpha.”
Mother called regularly too, updating me on Michael’s movements, checking if I needed anything.
She’d sigh when I mentioned my progress, proud but worried.
“You’re still so young. Don’t push yourself too hard,”
She’d say, “Let me help. Don’t be shy about asking
So I told her about Alexander Blake and his enhancement drugs.
Asked her to investigate quietly.
“But we must keep this from Michael.”
