Sure! Here's the translation: --- I am a wolf from the north, but unexpectedly, I became a bench player who didn't make it to the Olympics. "They're crawling, why are they so slow?" Audience: "Did he install a motor? This speed is insane!" National sprint team coach: "Switch events, he's a good prospect!" After being eliminated, everyone was waiting for me to voluntarily leave the team. But in a friendly match, when I got on as a substitute, I ran like the wind and scored wildly. From then on, I soared to new heights and was promoted to team captain. Until the off-season when I was dragged into a reality show. Netizens: "Help! Please blur his voice and face, and his abs!" "Get away, hubby! I want to have your baby!" I retweeted and tagged the new TV queen, "Sorry, in our wolf clan, we practice lifelong monogamy." --- Let me know if you need anything else!

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

[1]

I used to be a lone wolf from Vosridge; I was always a step ahead, chasing dreams of Olympic glory. But reality hit hard when I found myself benched, failing to secure a spot on the national team.

"Why are they moving so slowly? They look exhausted!"

Spectator: "Is he turbocharged? His speed is unbelievable!"

National sprint coach: "You should consider another sport! You've got incredible talent!"

After that setback, everyone assumed I'd resign myself to obscurity.

But then, during a friendly match, I got a chance to play. I dashed like lightning, scoring touchdown after touchdown.

From that moment, my career took off, and I quickly rose to become the team captain.

Then the off-season came, and I was unexpectedly dragged into participating in a reality show.

Online fans: "Help! Someone mute his voice, blur his face, and cover those abs!"

"Move over, girls! He's mine!"

Of course, I couldn't resist adding my humor to the mix. I posted on Twitter, tagging the latest TV heartthrob: "Sorry, in our clan, when we commit, it's forever."

I am the fearless leader of a pack of thirty wolves, patrolling and safeguarding our grassland territory. Though we weren't quite invincible, we were a force to be reckoned with.

Until I found myself as a substitute on a football team.

When I opened my eyes, the mighty Wolf King had been transformed into a frail human? I stared at my thin arms, legs, and waist, struggling to comprehend my new reality.

A system prompt appeared: "Welcome to the Human World Adventure Plan. Best wishes on leading your team to the Olympics!"

A huge question mark slowly formed in my mind.

The system added: "Good luck, Mr. Howard~"

"Bryan, are you okay?" Ian, the team captain, burst in with a group of players, examining me worriedly.

I was still full of questions.

The system clarified: "Sorry, the previous owner of this body just had a little accident..."

I swallowed hard. "Captain, I'm... fine."

Despite the setback, determination surged within me.

"Your physique is incredible!" Ian said, slapping me on the shoulder.

"Wow, you're really okay. You must have a lot of luck."

"If only we could share some of that luck with the team, we might make it to the Olympics one day."

Ian coughed to signal them to stop talking, but they kept chattering away like birds squabbling over crumbs.

I shot them a stern look, and they fell silent, whispering amongst themselves.

"Whoa, Bryan's glare... it's intense!"

Ian stammered, "Uh, Bryan, we didn't make it again this time. Three sponsors have left, and we might... have to cut some players."

The system showed me some headlines and comments.

"Stestan Men's Football Team Fails Again!?"

"Men's Football Misses Olympics, When Will This End?"

"Spending money on a bunch of losers, even a single state in another country is bigger than ours!"

"That number 8 weakling (which I assumed was me), either doesn't play or falls when he does!"

Ian looked at me meaningfully. "So... you understand, right?"

"No, I don't."

Giving up was never an option for a leader like me.

Chasing a ball that doesn't move? How could that be harder than chasing a running deer?

"Captain, give me a chance, and I'll score twenty points." I gave him a reassuring pat on the back.

To my surprise, he started crying, tears streaming down his face. It startled me; I hadn't even used any force!

"Bryan!" He sniffled hard, turning red. "Our team hasn't scored twenty points in two games combined. I'll trust you this once! Score twenty in a single game, and I'll beg the manager to keep you!"

With three months until the friendly match, I began training relentlessly.

I pushed the treadmill to its limits.

"Bryan, are you testing the treadmill's maximum speed?!"

I finished lifting the weights.

"Bryan! How am I supposed to unload these weights now?!... Please, help me hold them for a bit..."

In the cafeteria.

"Bryan! Why don't you just eat like a horse! Leave some for us!"

I didn't even lift my head from the pot.

The human world was amazing; I could eat my fill of beef!

On the day of the friendly match, I was full of spirit and determination, striding confidently toward the field.

"Sit down!" The coach ordered, and I found myself back on the bench...

At halftime, we were trailing by a large margin.

Ian's head was hanging so low, it could touch the ground.

"Let me play in the second half!" I directly told the coach.

"You? You playing is worse than me playing! I'm a fifty-year-old man defending our goal, and you..." He looked at me, stunned for a few seconds. "Alright, you go."

Without looking back, I walked onto the field. A teammate asked the coach why he suddenly changed his mind.

"You didn't see his terrifying look... I was afraid he'd tackle me to the ground..."

I grabbed the ball and sprinted like a madman. Scoring? They were all left far behind.

The opponents didn't dare stop me.

Without even catching my breath, I scored with lightning speed.

For a moment, the entire stadium was silent, everyone staring at me.

"Why aren't you cheering for me? Scared, huh? Hahaha!"

I proudly looked up at the scoreboard. Why hadn't the points been added?

Damn!

It seemed... I had scored in the wrong goal!

For three years, I poured every ounce of myself into Liam's tech dream, working multiple jobs to keep a roof over our heads. Tonight was the night I'd finally tell him my own life-altering secret: I was Ava Vance, the long-lost, presumed-dead heiress to the colossal Sterling-Vance empire. I believed in him, utterly. But he didn't walk in alone. He arrived with a stunning, polished woman named Chloe, arm-in-arm, and then dropped the bomb: she was his fiancée, and her father was his lead investor. He looked at me, his eyes cold and dismissive. "I'm leaving you," he stated flatly, then mocked our entire relationship, calling me just a "housekeeper" and an "embarrassment." When Chloe spilled wine on herself, Liam forced me to my knees to apologize to her like a maid. The ultimate betrayal came when he returned later, poisoned me to destroy my voice, and dragged my limp body into our cold, damp basement dungeon to keep me quiet. From my prison, I overheard them coldly plotting to frame me as delusional and commit me to a psychiatric hospital forever. The man I had loved and sacrificed everything for was a monster, systematically ripping away my very existence. Every lie, every calculated cruelty, twisted into a horrifying full picture. But they seriously underestimated the woman they thought they'd silenced. Just as two thugs came to haul me away, I found the strength to activate the emergency beacon hidden in my Sterling-Vance necklace. They believed I was a "lost cause," but they were about to face the terrifying wrath of the Sterling-Vance empire.

My world shattered with a frantic phone call: my mother had been attacked by a dog. I rushed to the emergency room, only to find her gravely injured, and my fiancé, Cohen, dismissive and annoyed. He arrived in his expensive suit, barely glancing at my bleeding mother before complaining about his interrupted meeting. "What's all the fuss? I was in the middle of a meeting." He then shockingly defended the dog, Caesar, belonging to his childhood friend Hillary, claiming it was "just playful" and my mother "probably scared him." The doctor spoke of "severe lacerations" and infection, but Cohen only saw an inconvenience. Hillary, the dog's owner, appeared, feigning concern while smirking triumphantly at me. Cohen wrapped an arm around her, declaring it "not your fault, Hillary. It was an accident." He then announced he was still going on his "billion-dollar business trip" to Zurich, telling me to send the hospital bill to his assistant. Two days later, my mother died from the infection. While I was arranging her funeral, picking out her burial clothes, and writing a eulogy I couldn't read, Cohen was unreachable. His phone was off. Then, an Instagram notification popped up: a picture of Cohen and Hillary on a yacht in the Maldives, champagne in hand, with the caption: "Living the good life in the Maldives! Spontaneous trips are the best! #blessed #zurichwho?" He wasn't on a business trip. He was on a lavish vacation with the woman whose dog had killed my mother. The betrayal was a physical blow. All his promises, his love, his concern-all lies. Kneeling at my mother's grave, I finally understood. My sacrifices, my hard work, my love-all for nothing. He had abandoned me in my darkest hour for another woman. It was over.

"That will be two dollars and fifty cents," the ice cream vendor chirped, a cheerful end to a warm afternoon. My daughter, Lily, beamed up at me, eyes wide for a rainbow-sprinkled cone. But before my fingers found my wallet, a cold voice cut through the air. "What do you think you' re doing, Ava?" It was Leo, my husband, arms crossed, face a mask of disapproval. He shamed me, publicly, over two dollars and fifty cents. "It' s the principle," he snapped, throwing a five-dollar bill at the vendor. "Consider this an advance. Transfer me one dollar and twenty-five cents by tonight. I' ll be checking." My face burned, my heart twisting as Lily clung to me. That night, I overheard his voice, warm and indulgent, on the phone. "Of course, Sophia. You liked the red one? I' ll have it delivered to your new place tomorrow." He was buying his stepsister a penthouse, showering her with gifts, yet demanding I pay for half of our daughter' s ice cream. The contrast was a physical blow. His love, his generosity, was for someone else. Later, in my small art studio, I typed a search: "divorce papers." I downloaded the forms, each keystroke heavy, final. When I placed the stack on his nightstand, he finally looked up, disbelief twisting his face into an ugly laugh. "A divorce? Don' t be ridiculous. Is this about the car I bought Sophia? Are you that jealous?" "It' s about the ice cream," I said, my voice steady, empty of the tears I' d held back all day. He scoffed, tossing the papers aside. "The ice cream? You want to end our marriage over two dollars and fifty cents? Ava, you' re being hysterical." He didn't know yet. This wasn't hysteria. It was the quiet, steel-edged birth of a rebellion.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.
