Short filmTranscript
00:00To the world, I'm Sylvie Lockwood, the wild princess of the Lockwood pack.
00:05And Fenrir Saxon? He's the most ruthless alpha in the state.
00:09Everyone thinks he's made of ice, but they don't see him at night.
00:13Every night, his control snaps.
00:15He was ruthless on bed. He whispers,
00:17My Luna princess.
00:19Again, like it's a promise, but it's a lie.
00:21And he has no idea that in exactly two weeks, I'm marrying someone else.
00:25The bed is still warm when Fenrir gets up to dress.
00:28I watch his fingers, butt in his shirt, calm, cold, and distant.
00:32I'm staying tonight.
00:34I ask, my voice still thick.
00:37Pack business. Don't wait up.
00:39He says without even turning around.
00:40Business. The same excuse he said to me every morning.
00:43He leans down and gives me a clinical kiss on the forehead.
00:46No passion. Just a goodbye.
00:49Fenrir left his phone on the nightstand.
00:51The screen lights up with a text from a girl named Elise.
00:55Fenrir, counting down the hours.
00:58I miss you. Miss us.
01:00Dinner tonight? Like old days.
01:02My fingers started to tremble.
01:04Fenrir never took me to any dinner.
01:06Not when on my birthday.
01:08I follow his car to a quiet bistro across town.
01:11From the shadows of my car, I watch the most heartless man I know
01:14climb out and pull a fragile woman into a gentle, tender hug.
01:18That's Elise.
01:19I reconjize her.
01:20She's thinner than on photos.
01:22The photo in Fenrir's study, he's touching her like she's made of glass.
01:27I've never seen him this soft.
01:28Except when we're in bed.
01:29The way he looked at her like he was her protector.
01:32To him, I'm just the wild girl he was asked to tame.
01:35Three years ago, my father handed me over to him.
01:39Sylvie is too wild.
01:40Fenack, my best friend.
01:42You're the only one who can handle her.
01:44My father said,
01:44I was 19, rebellious, and I hated him instantly.
01:48I thought he was just another man trying to cage me.
01:50So I decided I'd cage him first.
01:52The first time we met,
01:54I wore a tiny mini skirt to his office just to piss him off.
01:57He didn't even look up from his desk.
01:59Close your legs, Sylvie.
02:00He said coldly.
02:01You're making your family look cheap.
02:03I hiked my skirt even higher.
02:05How about now?
02:06He finally looked at me, his eyes like ice.
02:08Get out.
02:08For months, I played games.
02:10I left flirty notes in his files.
02:11I messed up his missions.
02:13I even put laxatives in his whiskey.
02:15But he was always so calm.
02:18He'd just say,
02:19You're a smart girl, Sylvie.
02:21Use your brain for something better.
02:24Until that night.
02:25I was desperate to see the monster beneath the suit,
02:27so I drugged his drink.
02:29I just didn't expect to be trapped in the room when it kicked in.
02:32Fenrir pinned my wrist to the wall.
02:34His breath was heavy, dangerous, and dark.
02:36What did you do?
02:37He growled.
02:38I looked him right in the eye, my heart hammering.
02:41You already know.
02:43Want to try me?
02:44That night changed everything.
02:46The next morning, I expected him to be furious.
02:48I expected him to send me back to my father in disgrace.
02:52Instead, Fenrir leaned in,
02:54his thumb grazing my cheek with a tenderness that killed me.
02:57My Luna princess,
02:59he whispered,
03:00this stays between us.
03:02Those three words were my undoing.
03:04I fell for him,
03:05and I fell hard.
03:06For two years,
03:08we lived a double life.
03:09By day,
03:10he was the icy,
03:11untouchable alpha.
03:13By night,
03:13he'd whisper that name in my ear
03:15until my legs gave out.
03:17I actually thought he loved me.
03:19I thought I was his world.
03:20Until my birthday.
03:21I spent hours getting ready.
03:23I booked the exact table where we first met.
03:25that I was ready to tell him I was his,
03:28completely and forever.
03:29Fenrir never came.
03:31I sat in that restaurant for three hours
03:33until the staff started looking at me with pity.
03:35The next morning,
03:36the internet gave me the answer I didn't want.
03:39There was a photo of him at the airport.
03:41He had his arms wrapped around a woman
03:42as if she were his entire universe.
03:44They look like a damn fairy tale.
03:46That's where he was while I sat alone.
03:48He was picking her up.
03:49I laughed until I cried,
03:51drinking until I couldn't feel a thing.
03:53I wanted to scream at him.
03:55I wanted to know,
03:56what am I to you?
03:57Just a distraction?
03:58A warm body?
04:00I went to his study
04:01and smashed every single picture
04:02of that woman with a wine bottle.
04:04That was when I knew her name was police.
04:06I wanted him to be angry.
04:08I wanted him to care.
04:09But when he walked in,
04:11he didn't even raise his voice.
04:13He just looked at the glass
04:14and told the maid,
04:15clean up this mess,
04:16before walking right past me.
04:17That was the moment I knew.
04:19I wasn't even worth an argument.
04:21To him,
04:21I was just a child throwing a tantrum.
04:23He still calls me
04:24My Luna Princess.
04:25as if nothing changed.
04:27But my heart was already dead.
04:30Now I watched for my car
04:31as he held the door open
04:32for Elise outside a bistro.
04:34He was laughing.
04:35It was a sound so rare
04:36I'd forgotten he was even capable of it.
04:38He calls me
04:39My Luna Princess in the dark,
04:40but he saves his joy for her.
04:42My heart died eventually.
04:44I grabbed my phone
04:45and called my father.
04:47Father, I accept.
04:48In two weeks,
04:49I'll marry the Johnson Pax dying son.
04:51My father is ecstatic.
04:53Anything you want, Sylvie.
04:55Just name your condition.
04:57We'll talk in person.
04:58I say,
04:59and hang up.
05:00I drove straight to my father's house.
05:02My father and my stepmother,
05:03Masha, were waiting.
05:05All right, Sylvie.
05:06My father barked.
05:07What's the price for your obedience?
05:09What do you want in exchange
05:10for this marriage?
05:11I sat down,
05:12looked at him in the eye,
05:13and said the words
05:13that froze the room.
05:16I want you to disown me.
05:17My father's face turned to ice.
05:19But Masha?
05:20Her eyes lit up with a greed
05:22she couldn't hide.
05:23I'll marry the Johnson Pax dying son.
05:25I told them,
05:26my voice steady
05:27for the first time in years.
05:28But in exchange,
05:30we sever all ties.
05:32From this moment on,
05:33I am no longer a lockherd.
05:35You can finally bring your mistress
05:37and her bastard daughter
05:38into this house officially.
05:39The day you killed my mother,
05:41I stopped wanting you
05:42as a father anyway.
05:43My father's face turned white.
05:45I told you that car crash
05:46was an accident.
05:47I sneered at him.
05:49Accident or not,
05:49Dad, Mom died,
05:50she caught you cheating.
05:51Let's stop playing house.
05:53You've been trying to sell me
05:54to the Johnsons for months
05:55just to clear the path
05:56for your new daughter,
05:57haven't you?
05:57My father shot to his feet,
05:58shaking with rage.
05:59You want to be decent,
06:00the Silva?
06:00Fine!
06:01As of tomorrow,
06:02you are no longer a lockherd!
06:04Deal.
06:04I said,
06:05already walking away.
06:06Just make sure the Johnsons know
06:08their bride is no longer
06:09an heiress.
06:10She's a parentless rogue.
06:11Let's see if they're still willing
06:12to pay you the same price for me.
06:13The moment I was alone in my room,
06:15my mask shattered.
06:16I collapsed onto the bed
06:18and sobbed until I couldn't breathe.
06:19Do you see what I've done, Fenrir?
06:21I thought,
06:22to finally leave you,
06:23I had to give up
06:24the only thing I ever had.
06:26The next morning,
06:27the house was a mess
06:28of moving boxes.
06:29I walked to the stairs,
06:31ready to leave this life
06:32behind forever.
06:33I looked down at the front door
06:34and my blood turned to ice.
06:35Standing there,
06:36in my home,
06:37was Elise.
06:38She was that new daughter,
06:39my stepmother's daughter.
06:41I stood at the top
06:42of the stairs
06:42and saw her,
06:43Elise.
06:44She was wearing a white dress
06:45looking like a perfect,
06:47innocent angel.
06:47She looked up at me
06:48and smiled.
06:49You must be Sylvie.
06:50It's so good to meet you.
06:53I didn't say a word.
06:54I just watched my father
06:55look at her
06:55with more love
06:56than he had ever shown me
06:57in my entire life.
06:59My father turned to me
07:00like I was the help.
07:01He told me to show
07:02Elise to my room.
07:03I felt the blood drain
07:04from my face.
07:05My room?
07:07It's Elise's room now.
07:08You can move
07:09to the guest room
07:10on the third floor.
07:11I didn't cry.
07:12I just gave him
07:12a cold laugh
07:13and said,
07:14No thanks.
07:15Thirty minutes later,
07:16I was dragging my suitcase
07:17down the stairs.
07:18My father blocked
07:19my path screaming,
07:20Where do you think
07:21you're going?
07:22Your wedding
07:22is in two weeks.
07:24I didn't even look at him.
07:25I told him,
07:26Since I'm no longer
07:27a Lockwood,
07:28I don't belong here.
07:29I'll be at the wedding
07:30to finish our deal,
07:31but I'm done
07:32with this house.
07:33I walked out
07:33and realized
07:34I had nowhere to go.
07:35Every friend I had
07:36only cared about
07:37the Lockwood name.
07:38Now that I was disowned,
07:39I was invisible.
07:40As the sun went down,
07:41I found an empty bench
07:43in the park.
07:43I sat there in the cold,
07:45hugging my knees,
07:46wondering how I'd survive
07:47the next five days
07:48until the wedding.
07:49Suddenly,
07:50a group of drunk men
07:51stumbled toward me.
07:52I was trapped
07:52against the bench.
07:53One of them reached out,
07:54smelling like booze,
07:55telling me not to be shot.
07:56But then,
07:57a low, dangerous voice
07:58cut through the dark.
08:01She's with me.
08:02It was Fenrir.
08:02He looked absolutely furious.
08:05The drunks ran for their lives.
08:07Fenrir looked at my suitcases,
08:08then at me and asked,
08:10Homeless already?
08:12And you still won't come to me?
08:14Fenrir took me back
08:15to his mansion,
08:15but I wouldn't go
08:16to our bedroom.
08:17I dragged my suitcase
08:18straight to the guest room.
08:19He told me I could stay
08:20as long as I wanted,
08:21but he has no idea.
08:22In four days,
08:23I'm gone forever.
08:25The next morning,
08:26I asked him the truth
08:27about Elise.
08:28Fenrir didn't even look guilty.
08:30He told me she was the girl
08:31who saved his life years ago.
08:33Then,
08:33his voice turned ice cold.
08:35He warned me not to touch her.
08:37He said she was fragile
08:38and that I shouldn't cause trouble.
08:40I just laughed.
08:41He wasn't protecting me
08:43by picking me up.
08:44He was protecting her.
08:46That night,
08:46the hallway was silent.
08:48Usually,
08:48Fenrir would come to my room,
08:50hold me tight,
08:50and call me his Luna princess.
08:52But tonight,
08:54nothing.
08:55His first love is back.
08:56Of course,
08:57he won't want me anymore.
08:58On Saturday,
09:00he forced me to go to a party.
09:01I thought it was a pack meeting,
09:02but when we walked in,
09:03I saw the giant banner,
09:05Welcome Home, Elise.
09:06Fenrir actually brought me to a party
09:08for the woman who took my home.
09:10Elise started crying fake tears
09:11in front of everyone,
09:13asking if I moved out because of her.
09:14She is the also sinner!
09:16I said.
09:17But Fenrir didn't defend me.
09:19He looked at me
09:19with a warning in his eyes,
09:21then turned to Elise.
09:22He whispered,
09:23Don't cry.
09:24Your eyes will get swollen.
09:25And wiped her tears
09:26with his own handkerchief.
09:28I watched them all night.
09:30He pulled out her chair.
09:31He brought her drinks.
09:32He fixed her dress.
09:34For two years,
09:35I thought Fenrir was just a cold man
09:36who didn't know how to be romantic.
09:38I was wrong.
09:39He's not cold.
09:40He just wasn't willing
09:41to do those things for me.
09:43When party was over,
09:44I was standing outside alone.
09:46That's when I saw them.
09:47Fenrir was carefully
09:48helping Elise walk.
09:49She hobbled over to me
09:51with a fake smile
09:52pretending to be sorry.
09:53But then,
09:53she leaned in close.
09:55Her voice was like a snake.
09:56He only has room
09:57in his heart for me.
09:58She hissed.
10:01It's been that way
10:02since high school
10:03and it'll never change.
10:04I looked at her,
10:06then at Fenrir.
10:07But before I could say a word,
10:09a black car lost control.
10:10It came speeding
10:11straight toward us
10:12on the sidewalk.
10:12In that split second,
10:13everything changed.
10:14Fenrir lunged forward.
10:15He didn't even look at me.
10:17He threw his arms around Elise,
10:18shielding her
10:19with his entire body.
10:20And me?
10:20I was just standing there.
10:22The car struck me hard,
10:24throwing me violently
10:25onto the cold ground.
10:26As the world went dark,
10:27my life flashed before my eyes.
10:29I remembered the first time
10:30he called me
10:31his Luna princess.
10:32I remembered the nights
10:34in his arms
10:34when I thought
10:35I was finally home.
10:36But the last thing
10:37I saw was the truth.
10:39Fenrir diving for her,
10:40leaving me to face
10:41the crash alone.
10:42When I finally opened my eyes,
10:43I was in a hospital bed.
10:45It was quiet,
10:46but I could hear them talking
10:47just outside my curtain.
10:49Fenrir's voice was so gentle,
10:50it sounded like
10:51a stranger's voice.
10:52Are you okay?
10:54Elise softly said yes.
10:56She asked him,
10:57Fenwick,
10:58if it happened again,
10:59you'd still save me first, right?
11:01Fenrir didn't even hesitate.
11:03Of course.
11:04He said,
11:05Sylvia has no reason
11:05to be angry.
11:07In an emergency,
11:07I'm obviously going to save
11:09the more fragile person.
11:10She understands that.
11:11After Fenrir left,
11:13the room was quiet,
11:14but not so long.
11:15The door creaked open,
11:16and there she was.
11:18Elise sat by my bed
11:20with a poisonous smile.
11:21She told me a story
11:22about high school,
11:23about how she was
11:24Fenrir's first love.
11:25She told me she took
11:26a bullet for him
11:27during an ambush,
11:28and ever since,
11:29Fenrir has been
11:29consumed with guilt.
11:31He promised to spend
11:32the rest of his life
11:33making it up to her.
11:34Then she leaned in,
11:35her voice turning venomous.
11:37She told me that
11:38while she was away,
11:39she lied to Fenrir.
11:40She told him I was
11:41mistreating her mother.
11:42She said Fenrir
11:43didn't discipline me
11:44because he was forced to.
11:45He asked for the job.
11:47He wanted to break me
11:48to get revenge for her.
11:49I felt my blood
11:50turn to ice,
11:51but it got worse.
11:52Elise pulled out
11:53her phone and asked,
11:54Did you know that
11:55every single time
11:56you two were together,
11:57it was being recorded?
11:58She said Fenrir
11:59installed hidden cameras
12:00in the bedroom.
12:01He filmed our most
12:02private moments
12:03just to give her
12:04leverage to control me.
12:05Fengal never loved you.
12:06He was just completing
12:07a mission.
12:08And now,
12:09he's going to marry me.
12:10I couldn't stay
12:11in that hospital bed
12:12for another second.
12:13Nurse shouted behind me,
12:14but I didn't care.
12:15I jumped into a cab
12:17and headed straight
12:17to Fenrir's mansion.
12:18I had to know.
12:20I had to see
12:21if the man I loved
12:22was actually the monster
12:23Elise described.
12:24I ran into his study
12:25and punched the code
12:26into the hidden wall.
12:27It slid open
12:28to reveal a room full
12:29of monitors and computers.
12:31My hand shook
12:32as I found the folder
12:33labeled Sylvie.
12:34I clicked it.
12:35There they were.
12:36Hundreds of videos.
12:37Every night
12:38we spent together.
12:39Every I love you
12:40I whispered in his arms.
12:42He had recorded it
12:43all in high definition.
12:44I crumpled to the floor.
12:46It was all true.
12:46I called my father.
12:48My voice breaking.
12:49I asked him,
12:50Three years ago
12:50did Fenigo offer
12:51to discipline me?
12:52My father didn't
12:53even hesitate.
12:54He told me Fenrir
12:55gave him a $200 million
12:56project just for the chance
12:57to take me under his wing.
13:00Fenrir didn't love me.
13:01He bought me.
13:02He slept with me
13:03and controlled me
13:03just to get revenge
13:04for Elise.
13:05I started to laugh.
13:06It was a hysterical
13:08broken sound.
13:09I went to the bedroom
13:10and grabbed my suitcase
13:11and my flight ticket
13:12to Jackson's pack.
13:13On the way out
13:14I picked up
13:14a solid gold lighter
13:15the first gift
13:17Fenrir ever gave me.
13:18I used to think
13:19it was a symbol of love.
13:20Now I realized
13:21it was just a mark
13:22on his prey.
13:22I flicked the lighter open
13:24and tossed it
13:24onto the heavy silk curtains.
13:26I watched the flames grow
13:28devouring the memories
13:29the lies
13:30and the ghosts
13:30of the girl
13:31I used to be.
13:32The sky was a hellish red
13:34as fire trucks
13:34surrounded the mansion.
13:36I watching it burn.
13:37A message jumped in
13:39when I turned on my phone.
13:40It was Fenrir.
13:41I heard you burn the house.
13:43Do you feel better now
13:44my Princess Luna?
13:46I didn't reply.
13:47I was about to catch the flight.
13:49I received another message
13:51from him.
13:51Stay home
13:52and wait for me.
13:53I have something to tell you.
13:54I turned off my phone
13:55whispered to the empty air
13:57we'll never see each other again.
13:59I threw my phone
14:00out the window
14:01and watched it shatter.
14:02Now he has no way
14:04to find me.
14:04At the airport
14:05I sat by the window.
14:07Outside I saw
14:08his private jet
14:08on the tarmac.
14:09I accidentally saw
14:10his silhouette
14:11walking up the stairs
14:12heading to another city
14:13for his meeting.
14:14My flight to Johnson's
14:16PAC was called.
14:17I realized then
14:18there were two planes
14:19on that runway
14:20pointed in completely
14:21opposite directions.
14:23Fenrir walked out
14:24of the PAC meeting
14:24and loosened his tie.
14:26After three days
14:27of high stakes negotiations
14:28the Torino territory
14:29was finally hit.
14:31He was at the top
14:32of his game.
14:33He turned on his phone
14:34for the first time
14:35in 72 hours
14:36and the screen lit up
14:38with 99 missed messages
14:39from Elise.
14:40But his eyes went straight
14:41to the only one
14:42that mattered.
14:43A single message
14:44from Sylvie.
14:44He tapped it
14:45expecting her usual sass.
14:47Instead
14:48his blood went cold.
14:49It was a bank notification.
14:51Transfer received
14:53$813,000.
14:55The memo simply read
14:56Settlement for Medical
14:57and Living Expensive.
14:58No.
14:59I miss you.
15:00No.
15:01Where have you been?
15:02Just a final bill.
15:03Paid in full.
15:04That was the total amount
15:05of Fenrir's money
15:06I had spent
15:06over the last three years.
15:08I transferred it
15:08to him back.
15:10Fenrir almost laughed
15:11from frustration.
15:12He typed back
15:13You think I need your money?
15:16Do we really need
15:17to settle accounts like this?
15:18He waited for the reply
15:19he knew would come
15:20in seconds.
15:21But the chat window
15:22stayed silent.
15:24Ten minutes passed.
15:25Nothing.
15:26He called her
15:27only to hear
15:28a cold robotic voice say
15:29The number you have dialed
15:31is not in service.
15:33For a second
15:33Fenrir froze.
15:35He thought of Sylvie.
15:36How she looked
15:37when she snuggled
15:38into his arms at night.
15:39Her long lashes
15:40against her skin.
15:41He looked at her
15:42profile picture.
15:43A proud cat
15:44that looked exactly
15:45like her.
15:46He smiled
15:47thinking she was
15:48just playing hard to get.
15:50He sent one last command.
15:52I'm back in New York
15:52tomorrow night.
15:53Be at the airport
15:54to pick me up.
15:55He stared at his phone
15:57waiting for her
15:57to say no
15:58or fine.
15:59But the message
16:00stayed unread.
16:01For the first time
16:02in his life
16:03the powerful alpha
16:04of the Saxon pack
16:05felt a chill.
16:06He was used
16:07to her defiance
16:08but he wasn't prepared
16:09for her silence.
16:10On the dry back
16:11Fenrir sat in the back seat
16:13holding a velvet
16:14jewelry box.
16:16Inside
16:16was the pearl necklace
16:17Sylvie had begged for.
16:19The one he had refused
16:20to help her buy
16:21at the auction.
16:22His driver,
16:23Marshall,
16:23finally spoke up.
16:24Alpha,
16:25I think she still
16:26heard about the auction
16:27but if she knew
16:28you went through
16:28all this trouble
16:29to find the real
16:29necklace for her
16:30you'd be so moved.
16:32Fenrir looked at the box.
16:33He pictured Sylvie's
16:35defiant,
16:36beautiful face.
16:37Would she?
16:38He whispered.
16:39Marshall kept going
16:40talking about how
16:41Sylvie was actually
16:42kind and sweet
16:44even when she tried
16:45to act tough.
16:46But then
16:46the temperature
16:47in the car dropped.
16:49Fenrir's face
16:50turned terrifyingly dark.
16:52He looked at Marshall
16:53in the mirror
16:54and asked
16:55Do you like her?
16:56Marshall's hands shook
16:58so hard
16:58the car almost
16:59swerved off the road.
17:00Fenrir demanded
17:01Tell me the truth.
17:03Marshall took a deep breath
17:04and admitted it.
17:05Who wouldn't be drawn
17:06to someone like her?
17:07But I know she only
17:08has eyes for you, Alpha.
17:09I've only ever admired
17:10her from afar.
17:11Fenrir calmed down slightly
17:12but then Marshall found
17:14a sudden burst of courage.
17:15He looked at the most
17:16powerful Alpha
17:17in the territory
17:17and said
17:18But Alpha,
17:19I hope you treat her
17:20better.
17:21You can't protect
17:22Aline one moment
17:22and then try to be
17:23sweet to Sylvie the next.
17:24She deserves a love
17:25that is all or nothing.
17:26Fenrir narrowed his eyes
17:27his voice dangerous.
17:28What are you implying?
17:30But Marshall didn't
17:31back down.
17:32He went all in.
17:33Exactly what it sounds like.
17:35Alpha,
17:35I've always wanted to ask
17:37who do you really love?
17:38Is it Elise
17:40or is it Sylvia?
17:45Sylvia, of course.
17:46The moment Fenrir
17:47said those words
17:48his assistant slammed
17:49on the brakes.
17:50The tires screeched.
17:52Marshall was in a cold sweat.
17:53He couldn't believe it.
17:54He turned to the Alpha
17:55and whispered
17:56But you've always treated
17:58Elise so much better
18:00than Sylvie.
18:01Fenrir leaned back
18:02and closed his eyes.
18:03He looked tired.
18:04He started to explain.
18:06Back in high school
18:07he was the cold prince.
18:08Every girl wanted him.
18:10To make them stop
18:11he needed a fake girlfriend.
18:13He saw Elise
18:14in the library one day
18:15wearing a white dress.
18:16looking innocent.
18:17He chose her just
18:18to keep the others away.
18:19It was never about love.
18:21It was a strategy.
18:22But then
18:23graduation day
18:24changed everything.
18:26An assassin
18:27targeted Fenrir
18:28on the school roof.
18:29Elise shoved him
18:30out of the way
18:30and took a bullet
18:31to the chest.
18:32She nearly died for him.
18:34Since then
18:34Fenrir has been trapped
18:36by guilt.
18:37He gave her
18:37everything she wanted.
18:39Not because he loved her
18:40but because he owed her
18:41his life.
18:42He even admitted
18:43the biggest secret of all
18:44the only thing
18:45he was grateful for
18:46was Elise's comment.
18:47I want that little
18:49Lockwood princess
18:49to never dare bully
18:51my mother again.
18:52Which led him to propose
18:53disciplining Sylvie
18:54to Alpha Lockwood himself.
18:56At the thought
18:57a smile involuntarily
18:58touched Amber's lips.
19:00Fenrir remembered
19:01the first time
19:02he saw Sylvie
19:02like it was yesterday.
19:04She burst into his study
19:06like a flash of red
19:07leaning against the door
19:08with a smirk.
19:09A princess shouldn't
19:10have to wait
19:11she told him.
19:12In that moment
19:13she was like a flame
19:14burning through his
19:15cold black and white world.
19:17His heart skipped a beat
19:18even if he didn't show it.
19:20For years
19:20she was a wild cap.
19:22She put laxatives
19:23in his whiskey
19:24and turned his
19:25million dollar contracts
19:26into paper airplanes.
19:28He loved every minute
19:29of the chase.
19:30He remembered the night
19:31he finally pinned her
19:32to his desk.
19:33She was furious
19:34calling him a bastard
19:36but he just whispered
19:37My Luna princess
19:39He took her
19:40again and again
19:41but he never said
19:42the word love.
19:43Fenrir realized
19:44he had kept his feelings
19:46buried because
19:47he was afraid.
19:48He was afraid
19:48if he confessed his love
19:50she would take it
19:51for granted
19:51or worse
19:52get bored and run away.
19:54But sitting on his
19:55private jet
19:55he couldn't stop
19:56thinking about her.
19:58He remembered
19:58how she secretly
19:59left warm water
20:00by his bed
20:01when he was sick
20:01even when she was
20:03mad at him.
20:04His throat tightened
20:05for the first time
20:07he was desperate
20:08to get home.
20:08The plane landed
20:10in New York.
20:11Fenrir walked down
20:12the steps
20:12his eyes searching
20:13for that familiar sight.
20:15Every time he returned
20:16Sylvie was there
20:17in a bright dress
20:17waving at him
20:18before flying into his arms
20:20like a happy bird.
20:21He could almost feel
20:22her hug already.
20:23He was ready
20:24to pull her into the car
20:25and never let her go.
20:27Fenrir!
20:28A voice called out.
20:29A smile started to spread
20:31across his face
20:31but as he turned
20:32his smile froze.
20:34It was Elise.
20:35She looked fragile and sweet
20:37but Fenrir's body
20:38went stiff.
20:39He pushed her away
20:40gently and asked
20:41What are you doing here?
20:42Elise pouted
20:43telling him she had come
20:44especially to pick him up.
20:46She asked
20:46Aren't you happy
20:47to see me?
20:48Fenrir gave a polite answer
20:50but he didn't even
20:51take her hand.
20:52His mind was miles away.
20:53He was thinking
20:54about Sylvie.
20:55She hadn't shown up.
20:56He figured she was
20:57still sulking about him.
20:58He started making
20:59a mental list of gifts
21:01to fix things.
21:02Elise begged him
21:03to follow her
21:04to a special place.
21:05Wanting to get it over with
21:07he agreed
21:07but when the ballroom doors
21:08opened at a luxury hotel
21:10Fenrir froze.
21:11The room was a sea
21:12of white roses,
21:13champagne towers
21:14and heart-shaped balloons.
21:16It was a perfect setting
21:17for a romantic proposal.
21:18The elite guests
21:19turned to him
21:20with no one's minds.
21:21Fenrir realized it
21:22instantly.
21:23This was a trap.
21:25Just as he turned
21:25to find an exit
21:26the large
21:27camp setting
21:28It showed Fenrir
21:29in high school
21:30letting Elise
21:31rest her head
21:32on his shoulder.
21:33Then a photo
21:34of him holding
21:34an umbrella
21:35over her in the rain
21:36getting stoked himself.
21:38To the crowd
21:38it looked like
21:39a perfect
21:40lifelong romance
21:41but Fenrir stood
21:43in the back
21:43his face
21:44a mask of stone.
21:46Elise walked
21:46onto the stage
21:47blushing.
21:48She told the room
21:49how Fenrir
21:50had watched her
21:51in the library
21:52how he only ever
21:53took drinks
21:54from her hand
21:54and how everyone
21:56called them
21:56a perfect match.
21:57I've always
21:58been in love
21:59with you.
21:59I've always
21:59been in love
22:00with you.
22:00She whispered.
22:01The crowd
22:01gasped.
22:02They were sure
22:03he was about
22:04to propose.
22:05Elise pulled
22:06out a jewelry box.
22:07She was certain
22:08he felt the same
22:09way because he
22:10had granted her
22:10every wish
22:11for years
22:12but Fenrir's
22:13eyes grew
22:14ice cold.
22:15Before she could
22:16ask the question
22:17Fenrir strode
22:18onto the stage.
22:19The room
22:20went dead silent.
22:21He looked her
22:22right in the eyes
22:22and said
22:23I can grant you
22:24anything you want
22:25Elise.
22:27But not this.
22:29I am not in love
22:30with you.
