I Changed My Mate on Mating Ceremony

I was the pack's chief healer and my mate was just an ordinary warrior. Everyone thought we were not a good match, but I didn't mind. I accepted his proposal without hesitation.

But on my mating ceremony, my mate's ex-girlfriend Serena suddenly came in with a little boy. The little boy hugged Marcus' legs and called him daddy.

I thought it was some kind of scam. But when Marcus saw the child's mother, his face went pale. Then he showed an expression I'd never seen before—pure adoration—as he scooped the boy into his arms.

"Let's cancel our mating ceremony. I need to mark Serena first and raise the child with her. Don't worry. Even though I'm marking Serena, my heart belongs to you."

He thought I loved him so much that I chose to be his second mate. He didn't expect that I would just calmly contact my childhood friend Alpha Dominic.

"My mating ceremony is all set up, but I'm missing a male lead. Would you be willing to come mark me?"

My fiancé's ex showed up at our mating ceremony with a child in tow, interrupting everything. My fiancé chose to abandon me and mark his ex instead. But when he found out I bonded with my Alpha childhood friend, he completely lost it.

I'm the chief healer of Silvermoon Pack, earning a hundred thousand dollars every month. My fiancé Marcus is just an ordinary warrior whose salary barely reaches a thousand. Not only do I cover most of our living expenses—the house, car, and daily costs—I also help support Marcus's retired parents. But thinking we were about to become mates, I didn't mind any of these sacrifices.

Then at our mating ceremony, a brown-haired little boy suddenly stumbled in, disrupting the entire ritual. He grabbed onto Marcus's leg and called out in his sweet child voice: "Daddy!"

I thought it was some kind of scam. But when Marcus saw the child's mother, his face went pale. Then he showed an expression I'd never seen before—pure adoration—as he scooped the boy into his arms.

Serena was his ex. When Marcus had fallen into financial crisis, Serena had abandoned him. I was the one who helped Marcus pay off his debts.

He explained to me: "Serena left Silvermoon Pack for the western territories before. She just came back recently. I had no idea she was pregnant with my child. The kid is already seven years old now."

Under my stunned gaze, Serena walked over.

My fiancé interlaced his fingers with hers, looking completely smitten.

I asked calmly, "So what now?"

He said, "Serena just returned to Silvermoon Pack. A single omega with a child will face gossip and judgment from the pack. I have to give them official status so the pup can have a place in the pack."

He paused, then continued, "Let's cancel our mating ceremony. I need to mark Serena first and raise the child with her."

My fiancé tried to comfort me: "Don't worry.
