00:00I already gave him my first time. If I don't marry him, who else would want me now?
00:10My sister knelt before me, crying. In my previous life, I gave birth to the heir, a white wolf pup.
00:20Consumed by jealousy, my sister burned me and my son alive.
00:28Then I opened my eyes again. I was reborn. She had been reborn too. This time,
00:35she had already slept with my fiance first, the white wolf prince. Instead, I married into the
00:43snake clan, the coldest, the lowest. Everyone pitied me, but they didn't know the truth.
00:51After the war between humans and beasts, the two sides struck a deal.
01:00Werebeasts would rule the world. Every hundred years, a human and a beast would get married.
01:06Their firstborn werebeast would become the new leader. In my previous life, I married the wolf
01:12clan's firstborn, Dominic Stewart. He was known for his loyalty. I gave birth to his white wolf pup
01:20before anyone else. Our son became the new leader of the human-beast alliance. Dominic rose to immense
01:27power. My younger sister, Catherine Walters, was different. She married the firstborn of the sphinx
01:35clan. But he slept around, recklessly. He infected her with an STD and left her infertile. Consumed by
01:44jealousy, Catherine burned me and my son alive. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day
01:51of
01:52the human-beast wedding. Before we could even choose our grooms, Catherine had already slept with Dominic.
02:00That was when I knew she had been reborn too. But she had no idea what Dominic really was.
02:06He was a brutal monster who solved everything with violence.
02:14Eve, Nick and I are really in love. Please, give him to me, okay? I already gave him my first
02:22time.
02:24If I don't marry him, who else would want me now?
02:29I was still reeling when I heard Catherine wailing. As always, Dad immediately took her side.
02:37Eve, how about you pick someone else? Cathy got carried away and made a mistake.
02:41I was his love child, while Catherine was his legitimate daughter. So he always liked her more.
02:48I locked eyes with Catherine, who was kneeling before me.
02:54She looked pitiful with tears all over her face, but the greed and excitement in her eyes were
03:00unmistakable. This time, she had secured Dominic first. In my previous life, I had chosen him as my
03:08fiance. As I saw it, the Snake Clan was cold and withdrawn. The Sphinx Clan frivolous and promiscuous,
03:15and the Dragon Clan arrogant and untouchable. Only the Wolf Clan was loyal and devoted.
03:22Dominic had seemed like the safest choice. Six months after our marriage, I gave birth to a
03:28white wolf pup and named him Frederick. As the firstborn were-beast of that generation,
03:34he automatically became the next leader of the Human-Beast Alliance. Catherine, obsessed with
03:41appearances, married Carlton Campbell, the Sphinx Clan's firstborn. She never expected him to be a
03:48complete playboy. He infected her with an STD, ruined her fertility, and the Sphinx Clan despised
03:55her for it. Yet instead of blaming him or herself she blamed me. Driven mad by jealousy over my better
04:04life. She slipped sleeping pills into my drink and burned Frederick and me alive. Just recalling it
04:10made my blood boil. I felt the urge to kill her right here to avenge Frederick. I clenched my fists
04:16inside my sleeves, and the pain biting into my palms helped me calm down. Then I nodded and smiled like
04:23I
04:23understood. Since you guys are into each other, I'm not gonna get in the way. Catherine clearly hadn't
04:35expected me to agree so easily. The fake tears she'd forced out froze awkwardly at the corners of her
04:40eyes. Kathy, get up and thank Eve for her generosity. Dad breathed a sigh of relief. Thank you.
04:51Catherine ran out happily, saying she was gonna tell Dominic the good news.
04:56All she cares about is her boyfriend. Dad joked. When he turned back to me and saw my expressionless
05:02face, a trace of guilt crossed his own. Eve, the only bachelors left among the Beast Clans are
05:10Jonathan of the Snake Clan and Carlton of the Sphinx Clan. I think Carlton would be the better
05:16choice. Better looks, higher status. And Kathy once said, I cut him off. I'm gonna marry Jonathan.
05:27Snakes were stereotyped as cold-blooded by humans. People were deeply prejudiced against them. For
05:33thousands of years, no one had chosen to marry into the Snake Clan. As a result, they had never led
05:40the
05:40Human Beast Alliance. Because of that, they were expelled from the top five clans, left at the very
05:47bottom, with almost no resources. But in my previous life, as I lay dying in the flames, I saw a
05:55pair of
05:55bright green eyes. It was Jonathan. He tried to save me, but the fire was too strong, and there was
06:02nothing he could do. That was why I chose him this time. Dad wasn't happy about my pick. But seeing
06:11how sad I was, he didn't push it. He sighed. If things get rough with the Snake Clan, you can
06:16always
06:16ask Kathy for help. But when Katherine found out I was marrying into the Snake Clan, she couldn't resist
06:22making fun of me. Eve, even if you can't marry Nick, you don't have to settle for the Snake Clan.
06:29They're basically done for. Don't end up starving yourself before you even have a baby. I heard
06:35they're barely scraping by. The Wolf Clan is so rich, they even bathe in priceless herbs. If you
06:42have a tough time, I can send you some leftovers. She didn't care about the weird looks from everyone
06:50around and roared with laughter, covering her mouth. In her mind, the Wolf Clan had plenty of resources,
06:57and Dominic was a good catch. So I got pregnant and had a baby in no time. But she didn't
07:04know the
07:04truth. It was hard for humans and beasts to have kids, and Dominic was fixated on having an heir.
07:14When I didn't get pregnant after six months, he started taking his frustration out on me and made
07:19my life hell. It wasn't until I used a special trick to get pregnant and had Frederick giving the
07:25Wolf Clan the power spot. That he finally left me alone. I gave a faint smile. Don't worry about
07:33me. I picked the guy myself, so I'm not gonna regret it. What's there to brag about? You just snagged
07:38a
07:38broke loser! Being that I wasn't mad at all, Catherine got so angry she swiped all the cakes off the
07:44table.
07:44I'll get pregnant first! And it's not my son to be leader of the Alliance!
07:49I couldn't be bothered with her crazy act and went to get ready for the wedding in three days.
07:54She was right about one thing. The Snake Clan was flat broke. I was worried they wouldn't even have
08:00money for a wedding dress. So I decided to get one myself. Yet that night, Jonathan showed up at my
08:06door with the wedding dress. This was the first time I got a good look at him. His skin was
08:14pale,
08:15almost bloodless. His eyes were narrow and had a serious look. They were bright green and seemed to
08:21hide a lot. The little mole at the corner of his eye made his cold face look a bit charming.
08:26I opened the box and saw a dark, green dress that dragged on the floor. It had shimmering snake scales
08:31on the chest. I had never seen such a pretty dress before and stared at it in awe.
08:37Ms. Walters, our clan's simmistress sewed this by hand. The scales on it are wishes from our people.
08:44Jonathan kept a careful distance, like Huent the one getting married to me.
08:49This is the first snake human wedding ever. If anything feels off, just let me know.
08:54Thanks. I love it. I was about to put the dress away when Catherine strutted in,
08:59hanging off Dominic's arm and looking smug.
09:03Eve, please tell me you've got more than one dress to pick from. You know what? Dominic bought me ten.
09:11Dominic was all lovey-de-ve with her. She thought the Volf clan stood for love and loyalty,
09:17but she didn't know it was in their nature. What truly mattered to them was having kids.
09:21If she didn't have one, Dominic wouldn't be so nice to her.
09:26Jonathan's hand on his snake staff froze. He looked up at me and said seriously,
09:31Sorry, this is basically a raw deal for you. I promise I'll never let you down.
09:37Catherine snorted.
09:38Big talk. We'll see if you can have kids.
09:42She never stopped talking about having kids. She hadn't been able to have any in her last life,
09:47and she couldn't let it go. So she was fixated on getting pregnant.
09:52She had moved into Dominic's place before they even got married.
09:56In a way, they were made for each other when it came to having kids.
10:00Focus on your own wedding. People might think you're after my fiancé again.
10:05I gave Catherine a faint smile. Ignoring the awkward looks on her and Dominic's faces,
10:10I took Jonathan's hand and left.
10:12Behind us, she started whining to Dominic about getting pregnant and having kids.
10:20Jonathan's voice, all calm and cool, was right in my ear.
10:25Mrs. Walters, I get that you didn't pick me because you wanted to.
10:30Still, I promise I'll do whatever I can to make sure you never get the short end of the stick.
10:34Hearing this, I spun around without even thinking and walked straight into his chest.
10:39A weird, sweet smell hit me like a wave. I looked up at him and said seriously,
10:44I picked you myself.
10:47And call me Yves from now on. Stop acting like we're strangers.
10:51His eyes betrayed a fleeting trace of something strange.
10:55Got it, Yves.
10:57Three days later, the wedding happened just like planned.
11:00Both weddings were at the same hotel.
11:02The Volf clan's wedding was way fancier than last time.
11:06They even got the reclusive unicorn clan to perform.
11:10And every big clan showed up.
11:12The snake clan side was pretty quiet.
11:15There were no guests.
11:16But everyone was happy.
11:18Marrying a pure human meant they had a shot at being in charge of the alliance.
11:27After the wedding, I bumped into Catherine.
11:30She stuck out her neck on purpose to show me the love marks.
11:34I didn't know the wolves were so strong in bed.
11:39I'm gonna have a baby soon.
11:41I smiled a little.
11:43Good luck with that.
11:44Catherine thought getting pregnant was easy.
11:46But humans and beasts were different species.
11:49And it usually took over a year to get pregnant naturally.
11:52In her last life, she saw how easily I got pregnant and figured she could do the same.
11:57She told everyone in the Volf clan she'd be pregnant in six months.
12:02Even Dominic believed her right away.
12:04Seeing how sure she was.
12:06To Catherine, my calm look seemed like I was challenging her.
12:11Whatever.
12:12You wouldn't get it anyway.
12:13The snake clan you're marrying into is dirt poor.
12:19She looked down at the snakes nearby like they were trash, and lifted her dress to walk past me.
12:25I grabbed her arm to stop her.
12:28Say sorry to them.
12:29She got mad, yanked free, and yelled.
12:33What's your problem?
12:34We went at it right there in the hall, and the guests who were still there all stopped to watch
12:39the drama.
12:39In the end, dad stepped in.
12:42He figured out what happened and made Catherine apologize to the snake clan.
12:46They were at the bottom of the heap, but they stood together when humans tried to humiliate them.
12:51Before she left, Catherine gave me a mean look and whispered,
12:56I'm gonna win this time.
12:58On our wedding night, I froze as Jonathan took off his clothes.
13:02Nobody had ever told me snakes had two of them.
13:09Seeing me sitting on the bed like a statue, he thought I didn't want to do it.
13:13His face turned pale.
13:15He picked up the clothes from the floor, and was about to put them back on.
13:19I grabbed the clothes out of his hand, annoyed.
13:23What are you doing?
13:25I thought you didn't want to.
13:27He stood there, naked and looking lost.
13:30His bright green eyes getting dimmer.
13:32If he wasn't gonna make the first move, then I would.
13:36I stepped forward, wrapped my arms around his neck, and pulled him onto the bed.
13:42As I pressed against him, I smelled that familiar faint scent again.
13:47You smell so good.
13:48I said what I was thinking.
13:50Jonathan froze for a few seconds, his ears turning a light pink.
13:55And then his kisses got intense, trailing from my forehead all the way down.
13:59Fingers laced, he enjoyed the moment.
14:01I used to think wolves, with their strong builds, would be the best partners.
14:07But I never expected snakes to be so incredible.
14:10We didn't stop until the sky started to get light, and only then did Jonathan let me sleep.
14:16Three months later, I got the news that Catherine was pregnant.
14:22When I first heard it, I couldn't believe it.
14:25For thousands of years, no beast had ever gotten a human pregnant in just three months.
14:31If I hadn't seen Catherine's baby bump with my own eyes, I wouldn't have bought it.
14:36The wolf clan threw a big party for the unborn baby and invited all the big clans.
14:41Guess our ancestors are looking out for us.
14:43We've got a baby on the way in just three months.
14:45Dominic held his glass, looming with pride.
14:49People lined up to suck up to him.
14:51Everyone was pretty sure that the next leader of the alliance was gonna be from the wolf clan.
14:56This was the perfect chance to get in their good books and maybe score some favors.
15:00By rank, I was supposed to sit with Jonathan at the end of the table, but Catherine told Dominic to
15:06seat me next to her.
15:08She wanted to rub it in my face.
15:13She stroked her belly and flashed me a smug smirk.
15:16It's been three months, yet your belly is still flat.
15:20You're not a pure Walters, and even your belly isn't up to the task.
15:24Where beast babies were special, they only needed two months to be born.
15:29Judging by the timeline, it should be next month.
15:32Catherine had gained a lot of weight, and her belly was swollen.
15:36She didn't know that where beast babies were naturally big.
15:39If she didn't watch her diet, she'd be in a lot of pain when it came time to give birth.
15:44In my last life, I tried my best to keep my weight in check.
15:48But it still took a whole day and night to have the baby.
15:52I was in so much pain I almost wanted to end my life.
15:55But when I saw the baby, all safe and sound, sleeping in my arms, I knew it was worth it.
16:02I picked up my glass, took a sip, and said calmly,
16:08The shortest pregnancy ever was still a year, but you managed it in just three months.
16:14Only you know how you pulled that off.
16:16Catherine turned to me sharply, her eyes flickering with guilt.
16:20What are you implying?
16:21I barely hinted at it, and she started freaking out.
16:25She just couldn't keep her cool.
16:27To an easy birth.
16:28I raised my glass to her, then found Jonathan and left.
16:32A month later, Catherine was in labor for three whole days and nights before she finally had the baby.
16:38But after a week, the wolf clan still hadn't let anyone see the baby.
16:43Dad even got turned away when he tried to visit Catherine.
16:46Something was definitely off with the baby.
16:49Half a month later, Dad called me back home.
16:52Before I left, seeing how worried Jonathan looked, I asked him to come with me.
17:00In the living room, Catherine sat on the floor, bawling her eyes out and holding a red wolf pup.
17:06This is my baby with Dominic!
17:08Wolf fur can change color sometimes, right?
17:11She was dead set on the idea that the baby was Dominic's.
17:15But she didn't know that he was a pure white wolf.
17:18And there was no red wolf gene in his family.
17:21Dominic's face was gloomy.
17:23And he looked like he was about to explode with anger.
17:27Catherine, who the hell did you cheat with to have this bastard?
17:30If you don't spill the truth, I won't slug!
17:32I'll kill him right here!
17:34Dad was scared out of his wits and tried to calm him down.
17:37Dominic, chill out, Dominic.
17:39There must be some misunderstanding.
17:41Cathy is crazy about you.
17:43She'd never cheat.
17:45Seeing Dad sticking up for her, Catherine quickly held the baby up to Dominic.
17:49Her voice soft.
17:51Look!
17:51Our baby looks just like you.
17:54Your eyes are the same.
17:57Dominic took the pup with icy indifference.
18:00The pup, who had been sleeping soundly in Catherine's arms,
18:04started bawling his head off the moment he saw Dominic's face.
18:08His miserable crying made me think of Frederick,
18:11who was struggling in the fire in my last life.
18:14My heart felt like it was being squeezed, and I winced in pain.
18:18Jonathan noticed something was off with me.
18:21He covered my ears, thinking I couldn't stand the baby's crying.
18:26Bastard!
18:27Dominic cursed, lifting the pup high up and then slamming him down to the ground.
18:31Just as the pup was about to hit the ground,
18:34both Jonathan and I reached out instinctively,
18:36and he landed safely in Jonathan's arms.
18:38I wanted to kill Catherine and Dominic,
18:40but the pup was innocent.
18:42Everyone, though, was shocked by what had just happened.
18:45Catherine's face turned deadly pale,
18:47and she trembled all over.
18:49Nick, you're so heartless!
18:52Dominic's gaze at her held no trace of the love he once had.
18:57We wolves are loyal and faithful to our partners.
19:01You cheated right in front of everyone.
19:03Who are you to call me heartless?
19:05The only good thing about him was that he was loyal and faithful.
19:08In my last life, when I didn't get pregnant after six months,
19:12he never thought about finding another wolf to have kids with.
19:15Instead, he took his frustration out on me day and night.
19:19I wondered if Catherine could survive this kind of suffering in this life.
19:22Catherine and Dominic went at it in the living room.
19:26She swore blind she never cheated,
19:28and he insisted the pup wasn't his.
19:30Dad was at his wits' end and threw the question at me.
19:34Eve, what do you think about all this?
19:36What could I say?
19:37The pup wasn't mine.
19:39I just came to see the drama unfold and didn't want to get involved.
19:43Jonathan chimed in.
19:44I've always heard about the Unicorn Clan's a special way of telling family apart.
19:49The wolves have been on good terms with them.
19:52Why not ask them to check it out?
19:56Catherine shot down the idea right away.
19:59No!
20:01The pup is Dominic's!
20:02We don't need them to tell us that!
20:04But Dominic nodded.
20:06Alright.
20:07Let's do it your way.
20:09The news that the wolf clan had called in the Unicorn Clan spread all over the place.
20:13Everyone was dying to see the pup.
20:15So three days later,
20:17they all rushed to the wolf clan's place and packed into the hall's entrance to see the unicorn do their
20:22magic.
20:23With the unicorn's spell,
20:25five red marks flew out from the pup's forehead.
20:27One landed on Dominic's hand,
20:29and the other four went toward the living area of the wolf clan.
20:36Dominic,
20:37you're one of the baby's dads.
20:38Hearing this,
20:39the crowd went wild.
20:41One of?
20:42So the baby has several dads?
20:47He looks totally like a red wolf,
20:49but Dominic is a pure white one.
20:51Catherine is such a slut.
20:53She should be with the Sphinx clan,
20:55not the wolf clan.
20:57Jonathan kept me tucked under his arm as we squeezed through the crowd to watch,
21:01hearing all the gossip.
21:03I almost laughed out loud.
21:05I had always wondered how Catherine got pregnant.
21:08If the pup had more than one dad,
21:10it all made sense.
21:12Catherine,
21:13desperate to get pregnant fast,
21:15slept with several wolves in the clan,
21:17all while running a breeding plan to maximize her odds.
21:20But she never expected.
21:22The red wolf had such strong genes,
21:24which gave her secret away.
21:26I couldn't tell if she was smart or plain silly.
21:29If she was gonna take such a risk,
21:31she should have stuck to white wolves.
21:33Dragging a red one into the mix was asking for trouble.
21:37Dominic's face darkened.
21:38He balled his fists as he barked at the guards.
21:41Go get every guy who's got that red mark on his hand!
21:46In a bit,
21:47four wolves were brought in.
21:49Three of them were white,
21:50and one was red.
21:51When I saw the red wolf's face,
21:53I couldn't help but gasp.
21:55It was gorgeous,
21:56almost as enchanting as a siren.
21:59Catherine always had a thing for good looks,
22:02so it made sense that she'd risk it all for a fling with him.
22:05Looking at the four wolves who had owned up to it,
22:08Dominic was furious.
22:10Got anything else to say, Catherine?
22:12Is this the baby you promised me when you got into my bed?
22:15Catherine stood up,
22:16holding the pup and wiping her eyes.
22:19If you hadn't kept pushing me for a baby,
22:22I wouldn't have gone this far!
22:23And if you had stronger genes,
22:25the baby wouldn't carry the blood of the red wolf!
22:28She started to sound more sure of herself.
22:31Besides,
22:32the unicorn said he's your baby too.
22:34That's all that matters.
22:36He's gonna be the next leader of the human-beast alliance.
22:41The second Catherine stopped talking,
22:43the leaders of the Sphinx and Dragon clans
22:45shoved their way to the front.
22:47They teamed up to shoot down what she said.
22:50We're not taking this werebeast.
22:53The deal is clear.
22:55It has to be the firstborn son of a human
22:58and the heir of a beast clan.
23:01If everyone follows Aron,
23:02the bloodlines will get all mixed up.
23:05Who knows what weird creatures could come of it?
23:08Hmph.
23:10This has to be okay with the other four big clans.
23:13For starters,
23:15we the dragons
23:16and the Spines clan aren't having it.
23:19The unicorn clan,
23:20standing nearby,
23:21quickly made their stance clear.
23:23We've checked out of the spotlight
23:24and we don't vote on this stuff anymore.
23:26Out of the four big clans,
23:28one didn't want to pick sides,
23:30two were against it,
23:31and the last one,
23:32the snake clan,
23:34wasn't gonna change anything.
23:35Dominic,
23:36who had almost felt something
23:38because of Catherine's words,
23:39lost it again.
23:43Catherine,
23:43look what you did!
23:44You made us look like fools!
23:46On the way back after the drama,
23:48Jonathan was sullen and quiet.
23:50It took me several tries
23:52to get him to speak his mind.
23:54You kept staring at that red wolf.
23:56Think I'm not as good looking or what?
23:57Seeing him all jealous,
23:59I got a naughty idea.
24:01You're the hottest guy to me,
24:03especially when you roll around in bed at night.
24:05Then I didn't get out of bed all day long.
24:07A month later,
24:09Catherine showed up at the snake clan's place,
24:11all beat up and crying her eyes out.
24:14Eve,
24:15please help me!
24:16Nick has lost it!
24:18He said if I don't have his baby,
24:19he'll keep hurting me every day!
24:21I can't take it anymore!
24:23If I don't get pregnant soon,
24:25I'm gonna die.
24:27Do you know any special trick
24:29that can fix this?
24:32What she said didn't shock me at all.
24:34I went through all that in my last life.
24:37Her skin was black and blue,
24:39with new injuries on top of old ones.
24:41But she brought all this on herself.
24:43In my last life,
24:45she said she missed me and got me back home.
24:47She drugged the water for me and Frederick.
24:50Then she set the house on fire
24:52and trapped us inside when we couldn't move.
24:54Before she left,
24:55she glared at me with pure hatred
24:58and screamed like she was out of her mind.
25:01Your life was supposed to be mine!
25:03I should have married Nick and had his baby!
25:06Now she took my life,
25:08but she started to regret it.
25:10I slid my hand out of her tight grip
25:12and said slowly,
25:13Look,
25:13it's not that I won't help.
25:15Having a beast's baby is no easy deed.
25:18And after the mess
25:19your first delivery left inside you,
25:21you won't even be able to try again
25:23for at least three to five years.
25:27She shot to her feet,
25:29eyes glittering with pure venom.
25:31You're acting like you can't help
25:33because you can't to stay me succeed.
25:37Fine.
25:37I'll handle it myself.
25:41No way I'll let you beat me to it.
25:43I'm not losing this race!
25:46Then she stormed out
25:47and slammed the door behind her.
25:50I was kinda speechless.
25:51I was telling the truth.
25:53It wasn't easy to have a beast's baby.
25:55In my last life,
25:57I only managed it using a special trick
25:59because I had mermaid blood in me.
26:01Back then,
26:02the mermaids didn't want to make peace with humans
26:04and went back to the deep sea
26:06to live in isolation.
26:07Mom was young and playful.
26:09She turned into a human
26:11and came to the land for fun,
26:12and she fell head over heels for dad.
26:14To stay with dad on land,
26:16she chose to cut off her tail
26:18and became a human.
26:19Her life was shortened to just five years.
26:22And after she had me,
26:23she sealed my beast nature to protect me.
26:26Mermaids got pregnant easily.
26:28In my last life,
26:30I removed that seal to have a baby with Dominic.
26:33It was like a slow suicide.
26:35Even though I got pregnant,
26:37my mermaid blood kept slipping away,
26:39and so did my life.
26:42In this life,
26:43I wasn't gonna do anything that hurt me again.
26:46I thought I wouldn't get pregnant this time around,
26:49but then something unexpected happened.
26:51Two months later,
26:53one night when Jonathan put his hand on my belly,
26:56he suddenly froze and asked,
27:00When was the last time you had your period?
27:02I thought hard and realized it had been about two months.
27:05But my belly was just a little rounder.
27:07I didn't think it was a pregnancy.
27:09I figured I had put on a bit of weight.
27:12I said, all surprised.
27:14No way.
27:15Seriously?
27:16Before I could get another word out,
27:18Jonathan jumped out of bed,
27:20got dressed,
27:21and rushed out to find a doctor.
27:23In less than ten minutes,
27:25the doctor was in the room.
27:27He felt my pulse.
27:28His brows scrunched up,
27:30shaking his head sometimes and nodding at others.
27:35The room was deathly quiet,
27:37and Jonathan looked at me, all worried.
27:39Then the doctor stood up.
27:43Congrats, Mr. Logan.
27:45Mrs. Logan is two months pregnant.
27:48Looks like she'll lay the eggs in a few days.
27:51I was calm until I heard that last part.
27:54Wait, lay the eggs?
27:56I thought I was having a baby.
28:00Jonathan chuckled,
28:02patting my head.
28:04We're different from other clans.
28:06We lay eggs that hatch into babies.
28:08Ever since I was pregnant,
28:10Jonathan had been feeding me all sorts of tonics
28:12and not letting me lift a finger.
28:14He even bought me three nectar fruits,
28:16each worth a fortune
28:18and considered the best tonic a pregnant woman could have.
28:21In my last life,
28:22Dominic only gave me half a fruit.
28:25The snake clan was broke.
28:26How could they afford three of them?
28:28How can you afford this?
28:30Aren't you-
28:33Jonathan sat next to me
28:34and held a clean nectar fruit up to my lips.
28:37Who said we're broke?
28:38Look, look around our room.
28:41Everything here,
28:42from the floor
28:43to the vases,
28:44is pricey.
28:46I had never looked closely at the room before,
28:48but now that I did,
28:50I could see that everything was pretty pricey.
28:53They say you're at the bottom of the heap
28:55and don't get any of the good stuff.
28:57Jonathan chuckled.
29:01We keep it low-key.
29:03We make our money in trade,
29:04not by using our status to get rich like some other clans.
29:07If you ranked us by wealth,
29:08we'd be second to none.
29:10We're all trying to become immortals,
29:12and most of our money goes to magic pills and herbs.
29:16There's only so much to go around in this world,
29:18and we're not looking to fight other clans for resources.
29:21Our goals are way bigger than that.
29:23Hearing this,
29:24I finally got it.
29:25The snakes I met all seemed a bit like they were from another world.
29:29It turned out that they were secretly trying to become immortals.
29:32Once I knew the snake clan had money,
29:34I told Jonathan to take me shopping right away.
29:41On the way,
29:42we ran into Catherine.
29:43She was pregnant again and holding Dominic's hand as they picked out jewelry.
29:47Dominic had forgiven her for cheating,
29:49and now they were back together like nothing happened.
29:52This time,
29:53he didn't let her out of his sight,
29:55so the baby in her belly could only be his.
29:59Hey Eve,
30:00what brings you out shopping?
30:02Catherine put both hands on her belly,
30:04rubbing it like she wanted to show off that she was pregnant again.
30:07I smiled.
30:09Dad's birthday is coming.
30:11I'm looking for a gift for him.
30:13She glanced at my and Jonathan's empty hands,
30:15and gave a nasty smile.
30:18You guys better pick something nice.
30:20You can't let dad look bad just because you're broke, can you?
30:23My pregnancy wasn't public yet.
30:25Jonathan didn't want me to get upset,
30:28so he stepped in front of me.
30:29Our family stuff isn't for you to worry about.
30:32We'll make sure the gift is worthy.
30:33Catherine snorted,
30:35flipped her sleeve,
30:36and walked off.
30:39At dad's birthday party a week later,
30:42Catherine and I sat next to him.
30:44This time,
30:45her belly was way bigger than it should be for just one baby,
30:49while mine had barely begun to round.
30:52You knew the trick to getting pregnant all along,
30:55but you kept it to yourself.
30:57She sneered.
30:58But this time,
30:59I've got the upper hand,
31:01and you can't beat me.
31:03Just as I was about to ask her what she meant by upper hand,
31:06my belly cramped painfully.
31:09It was the start of labor.
31:11Jonathan saw right away that something was off with me.
31:14He scooped me up and headed for the door,
31:16before anyone could ask.
31:18What was wrong?
31:19Catherine clutched her belly and started moaning loudly.
31:23Someone yelled.
31:24She's going into labor.
31:28Get her to the delivery room!
31:29Right then,
31:30the sky lit up with purple light.
31:32Rainbows spread everywhere.
31:34And birds chirped all around.
31:36It was a sign of great fortune.
31:38Before I lost consciousness,
31:40I heard the crowd cheering.
31:44It's a divine sign!
31:46This baby is going to lead us to a golden age!
31:50When I opened my eyes,
31:52three eggs were sitting in the incubator next to me.
31:55And Jonathan was wiping the sweat off my body with a towel.
32:02I was about to say something when I heard a scream.
32:04It was Catherine.
32:07I don't want to have this baby!
32:12I can't do this!
32:13Kill me, please!
32:16Hold on, Miss Walters!
32:18You're almost there!
32:20Catherine screamed her guts out
32:22while the midwife cheered her on.
32:23Our delivery rooms were separated only by a wall,
32:26and she was still in labor.
32:29You were amazing, Eve.
32:32Jonathan whispered,
32:33kissing my forehead.
32:35His eyes were filled with worry, guilt,
32:37and bottomless love.
32:40It's too noisy here.
32:42Let me take you home so you can rest.
32:44In my last life,
32:45after I gave birth,
32:47Dominic only cared about the baby.
32:49He didn't give a damn about me.
32:51But Jonathan only had eyes for me.
32:54He didn't even ask me to hatch those eggs.
32:56He kept them in the incubator and watched over them himself.
33:05I'm okay.
33:07I want to check on Catherine.
33:09I got up and went to the next room,
33:11leaving Jonathan to watch over the eggs.
33:14Catherine was flat on the bed,
33:16crying her eyes out.
33:17Every time she almost passed out from the pain,
33:20the midwife would force her eyes open
33:22and yell at her to stay awake.
33:26After about half an hour,
33:28the baby was born.
33:29When the midwife saw his face,
33:31she screamed in terror.
33:34Monster!
33:35Miss Walters had a monster!
33:38Dominic burst in at the noise.
33:40He froze when he saw what was going on.
33:44I leaned in to take a look
33:46and nearly jumped out of my skin.
33:47The baby had three legs and four eyes.
33:53There was Catherine,
33:54smiling like a proud mom
33:56while the baby with three legs
33:57and four eyes sucked on her breast,
33:59making loud slurping noises.
34:02Dominic felt like he was gonna puke.
34:04He clapped a hand over his mouth
34:06and bolted out of there.
34:07Catherine gave a mocking smile.
34:10It's his baby,
34:11but he acts like it's some gross thing.
34:13Word spread fast that the Wolf Clan
34:15had a monster baby,
34:17and it soon caught the attention
34:18of the unicorn clan's witch doctor.
34:20The doctor looked at the drooling monster
34:23and asked,
34:27Mrs. Walters?
34:28Did you eat anything weird
34:30while you were pregnant?
34:31This baby should have been normal.
34:33Catherine's face turned pale.
34:35She fished a vial from her sleeve
34:36with a shaking hand
34:37and handed it to the doctor.
34:39I took these.
34:41You can fix my baby, right?
34:43The doctor didn't say anything.
34:45She uncorked the vial
34:46and knew what had happened.
34:50These are the rat clans
34:51for Tintilli eggs.
34:53A folk remedy says
34:55taking one a day for 30 days
34:56can get you pregnant.
34:58But it's never made
34:59a deformed baby before.
35:01The rat was dragged in right away.
35:03Seeing him,
35:04Catherine lunged forward,
35:05grabbed his neck,
35:06and yelled,
35:09Why isn't my baby normal?
35:11Why did he end up like this?
35:13The rat was terrified,
35:15trembling all over.
35:16When he saw the monster,
35:17he pushed Catherine away
35:19and dropped to his knees
35:20before Dominic,
35:21begging for mercy.
35:23Mrs. Walters didn't do what I said.
35:25She must have taken
35:26too many fertility eggs,
35:27or this wouldn't have happened.
35:28Catherine glared at him.
35:29You said taking them
35:31for 30 days
35:33would get me pregnant.
35:34So I thought
35:36if I took them for 60 days,
35:38I'd have twins.
35:39Hearing this,
35:40everyone got what happened.
35:42If Catherine had taken
35:43the fertility eggs
35:44like she was told,
35:45she'd have had a normal baby.
35:46But she was too greedy.
35:48Once again,
35:49the wolf clan
35:50became the butt of every joke.
35:55Dominic was in a foul mood,
35:56and that meant things
35:57were gonna get worse
35:58for Catherine in the wolf clan.
36:00A month later,
36:01I was on my way home
36:03with some cloth
36:03for the babies
36:04when I saw
36:05Catherine clutching a basket
36:06to her chest
36:07and sneaking into an alley.
36:09I heard she had gone nuts
36:10from all the torture
36:11and kept trying to steal
36:12other people's babies
36:13in the wolf clan.
36:14I didn't think much of it
36:16and happily went home
36:17to wait for my babies to hatch.
36:19But when I got home,
36:20the door to my room
36:21was wide open,
36:22and the three eggs
36:23in the incubator were gone.
36:26In a panic,
36:28it hit me
36:28that the green cloth on
36:30Catherine's basket
36:31looked just like
36:32the handkerchief
36:33I had left on my desk.
36:36I grabbed the dagger
36:37Jonathan had given me
36:38for protection
36:39and sprinted down the alley
36:40where she had disappeared.
36:42At its far end,
36:44there was a run-down courtyard,
36:46and I could hear
36:46her creepy voice
36:47coming from inside.
36:49Babies,
36:49I'm here with you.
36:50Don't be scared.
36:52While she wasn't looking,
36:53I slid the dagger
36:54up to her throat,
36:56ready to end her.
36:58Give my babies back!
37:00But when I got closer,
37:01I saw that the eggs
37:02in the basket
37:03had cracked open,
37:04and the little snakes
37:05were gone.
37:06Were they dead
37:07or had they run off?
37:08While I was still
37:09frozen with shock,
37:11Catherine shoved me off
37:12and cracked up
37:12like a maniac.
37:24I wanted to lunge
37:25with the dagger
37:26and make her pay
37:27for my babies.
37:28Suddenly,
37:29Jonathan burst in,
37:31and a little silver snake
37:32shot out from him.
37:33The snake had his mouth
37:34wide open
37:35and bit Catherine's neck.
37:37Catherine spat out blood
37:38and fell to the ground,
37:39dead with her eyes
37:40wide open.
37:41The little snake
37:42coiled around my arm.
37:46Mom,
37:47I got her for you.
37:48It was Frederick's voice.
37:49He was my boy again.
37:51I cupped him in my hands
37:53and kissed his forehead.
37:54Nobody really cared
37:55that Catherine died.
37:57Dad had cut her off
37:58because she made
37:58our family look bad,
38:00and Dominic was glad
38:01she was gone.
38:02Seven days later,
38:04my three little snakes
38:05took human shape.
38:06Once again,
38:08the sky lit up
38:08with purple light,
38:09rainbows spread everywhere,
38:11and birds chirped
38:12all around.
38:13It was another sign
38:14of great fortune.
38:15My whole body
38:16glowed gold.
38:17In a second,
38:18I had a bright green
38:19snake tail,
38:20and my eyes
38:21turned bright green too.
38:22Then the Lord of Heaven's
38:24voice boomed.
38:25Ivana Walters,
38:26the snake fairy,
38:28broke the magic cauldron
38:29a thousand years ago
38:31just for fun,
38:32throwing the three realms
38:33into chaos.
38:34Now that you've gone
38:35through sen lives
38:36of trials,
38:37you can come back
38:38to heaven
38:38and take your job.
38:40In an instant,
38:41a ton of memories
38:42flooded my mind.
38:46I had been a flower,
38:48a stone,
38:49a unicorn,
38:50and a mermaid,
38:51but in every life,
38:53Jonathan was right there
38:54watching my back.
38:55He could have become
38:56an immortal long ago,
38:57but in the tenth life,
38:59he gave up a thousand years
39:00of hard work
39:01just to save me.
39:02Before I left,
39:03Jonathan took my hand.
39:07Eve,
39:07wait for me.
39:09I'll be up in heaven
39:10with you soon.
39:11The blessings of my ascension
39:12rained down upon the earth,
39:14and the snake clan
39:15bowed in reverence.
39:17Farewell to snake fairy.
39:19May you protect our clan
39:22and keep us strong forever.
39:24In a burst of white light,
39:26I was back in heaven,
39:27becoming the snake fairy
39:29who looked after flowers.
39:31Five hundred years later,
39:32I was sleeping in
39:33when a strange smell hit me,
39:35and suddenly,
39:36someone I knew all too well
39:37wrapped me in a firm embrace.
39:39Jonathan's voice rang in my ear.
39:42Eve,
39:43I'm back.
39:44I'll be right back to you soon.
39:45I'll be right back to you soon.
39:45I'll be right back to you soon.
39:45I'll be right back to you soon.
