Chapter 1
On his ruthless rise to power in Southern Europe’s underworld, mafia heir Edwin Sullivan was cursed by a witch.
If he didn’t marry a pure–energy virgin before his 30th birthday, his body would slowly rot from the inside out–until only his skin remained.
In my previous life, I was chosen to be his bride.
But on the day of our wedding, his precious adopted sister–Herminie Griffith–locked me in a bathroom and tried to elope with him in front of all our guests.
I exposed her in time. She was accused of betrayal and beaten to death by the Sullivan family.
But I paid the price.
After that, Edwin took my virginity, made me suffer through ten miscarriages, and on Herminie’s memorial day, he locked me in a cage with lions that hadn’t eaten in three days.
“You filthy whore!” he spat as I bled on the floor. “You tricked my family into thinking you were pure!”
“Herminie gave me her first time, and you–you killed her! You made me live with guilt every damn day.”
“Just die already.”
And I did.

I was torn apart, piece by piece, by those starving beasts.
Until I opened my eyes…
Back on our wedding day.
This time? I’ll let the world see exactly who Herminie really is-

The so–called “pure virgin” who once starred in a ten–man porn shoot in France.
Let’s see how she plans to save Edwin now.

I broke free from the bathroom and saw Edwin holding Herminie, about to get into the wedding car.
My parents looked shocked when they noticed me.
“Agnes? Why are you here? Then who is that with Edwin?”
My mother walked over and lifted Herminie’s veil. Her face went pale with shock.
“How… how could it be you?
“This is supposed to be my daughter’s wedding with Edwin. Why are you the one getting into the wedding car?”
My mother was shaking with fury, her voice cracking as she questioned what was happening.
Just then, Edwin’s mother, Suzanne Sullivan, stood up slowly, forcing a smile as she came closer.

“You knew full well my son’s bride had to be a virgin. But you still hid the truth from us! Do you want my son to die? He turns 30 the day after
tomorrow.”
My mother bit her lip, her face burning with anger and shame.
She shot back, “Hide what truth? Agnes is a virgin, no doubt about it!”
“Hah! She’s just a used–up woman who’s probably been with countless guys. And now she has the nerve to act innocent? If people found out, wouldn’t it be a joke?”
Edwin’s father, Gerard Sullivan, gave a bitter laugh, leaning on his cane.
“Edwin is the only heir of my family. You really think he can marry just any cheap, low–class woman?”
I smiled coldly.
So this was their real plan all along: to publicly ruin me on what was supposed to be my wedding day.
Edwin walked over proudly, holding Herminie’s hand, looking smug and
full of himself.
“Herminie is the only one with the pure energy I need. Agnes Walcott, how many guys have used you up? Should I list them all?”
That’s when everything clicked.
Edwin had been reborn, too.
“Alright then,” I said.

Now I was curious, who exactly used me?

When he realized I wasn’t backing down, he pulled out a pile of photographs and threw them at me. With look, I noticed they were photoshopped.

Herminie had taken them in France, but someone had edited my face onto her body using AI.
My mother picked one up, her hands shaking as she looked closely.
“No… this isn’t real. My daughter would never do this,” she whispered, barely holding back tears.
I picked up one of the photos, pretending to be shocked.
“Why does the girl in this photo have a mole on her neck? I don’t have
one.”
While saying that, I looked straight at Herminie and added, “Well, what a coincidence. The mole in this photo matches yours exactly.”
Her face turned ghostly white. Then she ran into Edwin’s arms, sobbing loudly.
“Why would she lie like that? I’m still a virgin. I’m being wrongly accused… I can’t take this anymore!”
Edwin panicked, thinking she might jump like she did before. He stormed over, slapped me hard across the face, and forced me to kneel in front of her.
“Say sorry to Herminie right now! How dare you make up lies about her? Have you gotten too full of yourself?”
He grabbed my chin roughly, and the sharp pain made me start sweating.
