00:00I stared wide-eyed, frozen in fear.
00:02Father, Alpha Heart, had pupupils glowing like molten fire,
00:07baring his fangs as he lulunged at his brother Damien.
00:10Only fierce snars filled the air.
00:13This was a cruel fight for the Alpha Throne,
00:16and the silver moonlight had long been stained red.
00:20Their powers collided.
00:22A shockwave ripped through the trees.
00:24Damien's body flied backwards, slammed into a boulder,
00:27and slided down, unconscious.
00:30My father stumbled.
00:32He dropped to one knee, gasping.
00:35Blood poured from deep wounds across his chest and arms.
00:39Daddy!
00:44Then, I stumbled out of the bushes and fell into my father's arms.
00:49He was weak, stroked my hair.
00:52Don't cry, my little moon.
00:55For the pack's peace, this is worth it.
00:59From now on, hide your name.
01:02Go with Beta Cole.
01:04He'll protect you.
01:05He gently pushed me away.
01:07Beta Cole lifted me.
01:09I cried out for my father.
01:11No!
01:12Daddy!
01:14Alpha Heart smiled, eyes closed.
01:17A silver light emanated from his body, flooding the forest.
01:21My dad's last strength becomes a barrier to protect our pack and me.
01:26Thus, my wolf will stay sealed until 16.
01:29Later, I came to the Cole family.
01:32They treated me like their own, especially Adrian.
01:35On that day, sunlight glinted through the trees.
01:38Beta Cole carried me from the car.
01:40At the gate, Adrian, who was 8 years old, ran towards us.
01:44He was gentle.
01:44Hi, I'm Adrian Cole.
01:47Dad said I have a little sister now.
01:49That's you?
01:50Selena.
01:52I'm Selena.
01:54Cole.
01:55Then I'll call you Lena.
01:57I'll protect you.
01:58I nodded, smiled through tears, our hands clasped tightly.
02:03I also remembered that day.
02:04My birthday in this home, Adrian placed a crystal crown on my head and kissed my cheek.
02:10Happy birthday, my princess.
02:11I closed my eyes and made a wish.
02:14I wish Adrian would be here.
02:16Every birthday.
02:17Always.
02:18One day, I was cornered by wolf boys, trembling with tears.
02:23You think a human can join us?
02:26Dream on!
02:27Adrian came charging from a distance and shoved the boys away fiercely.
02:32Touch my sister again?
02:34I'll rip out your throats.
02:36All of you!
02:37His eyes flashed gold.
02:39Then wolf boys froze.
02:41They scrambled away, tripped over each other.
02:45Adrian and I run through tall grass, laughing, out of breath.
02:50We collapsed, side by side, hands clasped, stared up at the moon.
02:54Selena, even if you're a human, my Luna could only be you.
02:58When I went to school, I wore the school uniform and stood beside the car.
03:03Adrian opened the car door and gently pulled me close to kiss my hair.
03:07Lena, the seat next to me will always be yours.
03:10I thought this happiness would last forever, until that girl, Lyra's shadow appeared.
03:15The happy memories flashed backward, faster and faster.
03:18My snap to reality.
03:19I opened the passenger door of the luxury car.
03:22Lyra leaned against Adrian, laughed softly.
03:24Why is she coming home with us?
03:27Lyra's not feeling well.
03:28I'm just dropping her off.
03:30Adrian was impatient, as Lila shot me a look.
03:33Poison.
03:34A smirk curled her lips.
03:35Then she draped herself around Adrian's neck.
03:38Played weak.
03:39You said the seat next to you would always be mine.
03:42Childish.
03:43It's just a seat.
03:44Take the back today.
03:46Adrian gestured with his chin.
03:47I opened the back door.
03:52I gasp in pain.
03:54Blood seeped from my foot.
03:56Adrian!
03:57Walk home yourself.
03:59Don't make a scene.
04:05Suddenly, raindrops falled.
04:07Then a downpour.
04:08I hug myself.
04:10Shivered.
04:11Stared at my bleeding foot with hollow eyes.
04:14Rain mixes with blood.
04:16My eyes fluttered closed.
04:18When I woke up again, I slowly opened my eyes.
04:22An IV drip ran into my arm.
04:24Then, Adrian rushed into the room in a panic.
04:27Adrian still cares about me.
04:29I thought.
04:30I sit up slightly.
04:31Warmth flickered in my chest.
04:33Adrian had already at my bedside.
04:34His eyes burned with rage.
04:36So you told my dad Lyra pushed you.
04:38And now you fake being sick?
04:39You're the worst, Selene.
04:40I freezed.
04:41Before I could explain,
04:43Adrian grabbed my arm and yanked me out of bed.
04:46Wait!
04:47Adrian!
04:48I gasped as the needle ripped out of my arm.
04:51The IV dube whipped through the air.
04:53Blood beaded instantly on my skin.
04:56I stumbled and fall to my knees in pain.
04:58A streak of red ran down my arm.
05:01Adrian's anger cracked just for a moment.
05:03He stared at the wound.
05:05His breath catches.
05:06His fingers trickled slightly and almost reached for me.
05:09Selene.
05:10I'm...
05:10Adrian!
05:12Help!
05:13Adrian froze for half a second.
05:14Then his face hardened again.
05:16Lyra!
05:17He ran out urgently without a second glance at me.
05:21I clutched my bleeding arm,
05:22forced myself up,
05:24paled and tribbled.
05:25I followed him,
05:26limped,
05:27stumbled.
05:28Lyra was bound to the sofa.
05:29Tears streamed down her face.
05:31Fresh whip marked cover her arms and shoulders.
05:33Beta Cole stood over her,
05:34whipped in hand,
05:35feared radiating from him.
05:36He raised the whip.
05:37Adrian bursted in and
05:38throwed himself in front of his father.
05:40Stop!
05:40Lyra's too fragile.
05:41Kill her!
05:42Step back!
05:43This is punishment for her!
05:45It's all my fault!
05:47Don't think I won't hit you, boy.
05:50The whip cracked down,
05:51again and again.
05:52I stood in the doorway,
05:54watched.
05:55Grief tightened my face.
05:57My hands curled into fists.
05:59Beta Cole didn't stop,
06:01until he sensed my watching.
06:02He looked at me,
06:03then gave a slight bow.
06:05Adrian seethed with resentment,
06:06turned on his father in a low, bitter voice.
06:08Why do you treat her like this?
06:10Ever since she came,
06:11our Alpha's gone,
06:12and we've been hunted.
06:13She is a curse!
06:14Shut up, Adrian.
06:16You have no idea who you're talking to?
06:18Beta Cole dropped the whip
06:19and gestured for me to follow.
06:22We walked toward the study room.
06:23A tear traced silver down my cheek.
06:26Warm light filled the study.
06:27Surrounded by ancient books,
06:29I looked at Beta.
06:31Princess,
06:32we talked about you leaving or staying.
06:34I will leave for the trials,
06:36become Alpha,
06:38inherit my father's will,
06:39and protect our pack.
06:41Impressive.
06:42Truly,
06:43you are the daughter of Alpha Heart.
06:45I lowered my head slightly,
06:46nervous but unwavering.
06:47Once your status is restored,
06:49you will no longer enjoy the life of an ordinary person.
06:52You'll bear far greater responsibility.
06:54Responsibility will make me happier.
06:56I used to think Adrian would give me a normal life,
06:59a simple happiness.
07:01But everything changed.
07:04I apologize for my son.
07:07I don't mind.
07:09Next week,
07:10you turn 16.
07:11You will awaken as an Alpha.
07:13You will have your own Wolf.
07:15I'll arrange your leave from school.
07:17You'll go to the training camp
07:18for Alpha initiation.
07:20And you will become a brave Alpha,
07:22just like your father.
07:25For everything.
07:26Then I walked slowly out of the study,
07:29calm but filled with quiet strength.
07:31The moment I stepped out,
07:32Adrian appeared,
07:34pinned me against the wall.
07:35We stood inches apart.
07:36You!
07:37Jealousy!
07:38Hatred!
07:39Why are you targeting Laia?
07:41Because you think she's stealing my attention from you?
07:43I looked up,
07:44met his eyes.
07:45I let out a small laugh,
07:47cold and distant.
07:49Adrian,
07:50not everything is about you.
07:52Adrian froze,
07:53a few seconds of silence.
07:55He stepped closer,
07:56fisted clenching slightly,
07:58his voice raw with anger,
07:59and something else.
08:01Enough!
08:02If you want my attention,
08:03then be nice to Lyra.
08:05She cries every night because of you.
08:07I shook my head,
08:08my gaze steady.
08:10Everything changed.
08:11I am no longer the girl you thought you knew.
08:15Done waiting,
08:16done hoping,
08:18for the boy I love to see me.
08:20Adrian stood frozen,
08:22speechless.
08:23I gently pushed past him,
08:25and walked away,
08:27steady,
08:28unharried,
08:28and resolute.
08:32I walked into the empty locker room alone.
08:35I looked down at my injured foot,
08:37gently touched it.
08:38The wound seeped slightly,
08:40but my eyes,
08:41unwavering.
08:42Once I regain the power of Alpha,
08:45I will be able to heal myself.
08:47Suddenly,
08:48sharp giggles from outside,
08:49followed by the click of heels on the floor.
08:52Lyra appeared in the doorway with two followers,
08:54each step slow and deliberate.
08:56Well,
08:57well,
08:57look who's finally showing up.
08:59Bastard!
09:00Just a useless waste!
09:01One of the girl mocked.
09:02The three girls closed in,
09:04backed me into a corner by the lockers.
09:06My back hit the wall.
09:07My expression stayed calm,
09:08but my shoulder tense slightly.
09:11Another girl yanked my backpack.
09:15Look at those shoes.
09:17They are screaming for help.
09:19Too bad you can't.
09:20They tugged at my uniform.
09:22The fabric tears,
09:24exposed my shoulder.
09:26Lyra stepped closer,
09:27smirk still in place.
09:29She pulled a pen from her pocket,
09:31clicked it,
09:31and moved in.
09:33Bitch,
09:33I'm gonna give you back everything I suffered last night.
09:37Every
09:37bit of it.
09:39Then,
09:40she jabbed the pen tip into my shoulder.
09:42Suddenly,
09:43the silver mark on my wrist began to glow.
09:46The air ripples.
09:48Locker doors rattled gently.
09:50Books slid off shelves.
09:52A pulse of energy blasted outward.
09:54The girls stumbled back,
09:56crashed into the lockers,
09:57shrieked.
09:58Lyra doubled over,
09:59then looked up in terror.
10:01I stepped forward slowly,
10:02calmly.
10:04I reached out and gripped Lyra's chin.
10:06From now on,
10:08no one touches me without permission.
10:11Especially you, Lyra.
10:14Lyra shoved my hand away,
10:16trembled.
10:17Suddenly,
10:18Adrian bursted in,
10:19throwed himself between Lyra and I.
10:21Stay back,
10:22Selene!
10:22What the hell are you doing?
10:26See?
10:27She's doing it again!
10:29She's always bullying me!
10:31Adrian hesitated for half a second,
10:33then bought it.
10:34He whirled on me.
10:35There you go again!
10:37It's always you,
10:38isn't it?
10:39Stirring up trouble wherever you go!
10:42I inhaled slowly.
10:43A cold,
10:44bitter smile tugged at my lips.
10:46I shook my head.
10:48How could I ever?
10:49Like an idiot like you?
10:51Heard that.
10:52Adrian's face dartened.
10:53Lyra's father died protecting this pack.
10:55She's a hero's daughter.
10:57You?
10:57You're just some human girl.
10:59If my dad hadn't taken you in,
11:00you'd be dead long ago.
11:01My hands clenched into fists.
11:03My eyes reddened.
11:04I trembled,
11:05but not from fear.
11:06Lyra's father was a traitor.
11:07He tried to take the alpha position.
11:10My father fought him to save the pack,
11:11but I can't tell anyone.
11:13Who'd believe me?
11:14I took a deep breath.
11:15I moved to leave,
11:16but Adrian blocked my path with his arm out.
11:18Celine,
11:19apologize to Lyra.
11:20Now!
11:21I stopped and met his eyes.
11:22Impossible.
11:23Adrian's browed Titans.
11:24He stepped closer.
11:26Voice dropped to a low threat.
11:27I don't beat girls,
11:30but...
11:30If you dare touch me,
11:32you cannot bear that responsibility.
11:33I raised my arm,
11:35pulled up my sleeve,
11:36my pant leg,
11:37revealed scars,
11:38bruises,
11:39wounds,
11:40layered over time.
11:41Adrian's eyes went wide.
11:43Who did this?
11:45Who hurts you?
11:46Lyra,
11:47she did this.
11:48She tortures me all the years.
11:50Why are you always so mean to me?
11:53I...
11:54I didn't do anything!
11:56A sad, quiet smile crossed my face.
11:58There's no anger left.
11:59Everything is gone.
12:01Adrian,
12:02you forgot your promises,
12:03our happy times,
12:05all gone.
12:05It's injured.
12:06Let me carry you.
12:08Let me go.
12:09I can walk myself.
12:11After said that,
12:12I turned to leave.
12:13But Adrian lifted me anyway.
12:16Firm,
12:16yet gentle.
12:18I struggled for a moment,
12:20then still.
12:22I rested against him,
12:24my expression unreadable.
12:26Lyra watched from the side.
12:28Jealousy twisted her face.
12:31Rage burns in her eyes.
12:34Bitch.
12:35I'm not done with you.
12:37I was lying on a bed.
12:38An IV dripped in my arm.
12:40I looked pale.
12:42Adrian sat beside me,
12:43holding my hand.
12:44I pulled away.
12:46He took it again.
12:47The fluid's cold.
12:48Let me warm your hand.
12:49I turned my head away,
12:51stopped fighting it.
12:53A single tear fell.
12:56Adrian's phone rang.
12:57He stood,
12:58gently touched my forehead.
12:59Be right back.
13:00His voice soft.
13:01He left.
13:02I closed my eyes,
13:04sighing.
13:05Lyra slipped into the room,
13:06a smirk on her face.
13:07My eyes snapped open.
13:09I jerked up in bed,
13:11alarmed.
13:11Lyra?
13:12What are you doing here?
13:13Lyra's smile widened.
13:15She moved closer.
13:16Her fingers hovered over the IV line.
13:19Her eyes glinted,
13:20unhinged,
13:21daring.
13:21My breath quickened.
13:23I gripped the sheet,
13:24eyes wary.
13:25Lyra yanked the needle out of my arm.
13:28Fluids spattered the bed.
13:29In one swift move,
13:31Lyra plunged the needle into her own chest.
13:34Blood seeped through her shirt.
13:36Her face twisted in pain,
13:37but there's a sick satisfaction in her eyes.
13:40The door burst open.
13:41Adrian stormed in,
13:43took in the scene,
13:43rage in his eyes.
13:46Lyra!
13:46He rushed to her,
13:47pulled her into his arms,
13:49shielded her.
13:50Lyra's expression shifted instantly.
13:52Her eyes welled up.
13:53Selina,
13:55please don't hurt me.
13:57I know I was wrong.
13:58I won't take anything from you ever again.
14:01I just,
14:02I just wanted a place to belong.
14:04I froze.
14:05Fear and disbelief surged through me.
14:07My hands curled into fists,
14:09breathing hard.
14:10Adrian gritted his teeth.
14:12You!
14:13Are you out of your mind?
14:14He stepped forward and slapped me.
14:16Hard.
14:17The crack echoed in the small room.
14:19My head snapped to the side.
14:21I touched my cheek,
14:22stunned.
14:23Who's his real sister anyway?
14:26Told you.
14:27Selina's just a foster kid.
14:29A human.
14:31My cheek reddened.
14:32But I still stayed.
14:34Didn't fight back.
14:35Adrian hesitated,
14:36then stepped closer.
14:37Selina,
14:39I,
14:39I'm sorry.
14:41No need.
14:43Don't tell my dad.
14:45Originally,
14:46he was only scared Lyra would get in trouble.
14:48Fine.
14:49I won't.
14:50But now,
14:51please,
14:51leave.
14:52I need to rest.
14:53I lifted a hand,
14:54gestured them out.
14:55They exchanged a glance,
14:57then exited.
14:58Five days,
14:59then I'm gone.
15:00No more memories here.
15:02None.
15:04I open my locker.
15:06Inside hangs a silver blue gown.
15:08A note.
15:09For tonight.
15:11Okay.
15:12One last dance before goodbye.
15:13At night,
15:15Beta Cole watched me zip a small suitcase.
15:17Are you sure you don't want to tell Adrian
15:19there's that dance tomorrow?
15:21I'll be there.
15:22I'll tell him who I am
15:24before the last dance.
15:26Only one day left before leaving.
15:28Grand Hall.
15:29I entered in the silver blue gown.
15:31They exclaimed in amazement.
15:35Wait,
15:35is that the Cole family cresp?
15:37That dress is custom made.
15:39But,
15:39I thought Lyra was supposed to be his date.
15:42What's Selina doing with it?
15:43Across the room,
15:44Lyra watched in red.
15:47Jealousy burned.
15:49Cute dress, Selina.
15:50Too bad it was never meant for you.
15:53If you want it,
15:54it's yours.
15:56Lyra's smile cracked.
15:57She grabbed scissors,
15:59slashed her own gown,
16:00and screamed,
16:00Selina?
16:01How could you?
16:02First you steal the dress
16:03Adrian gave me,
16:04and now you destroy mine too?
16:05When will it be enough?
16:08Adrian entered the Grand Hall
16:10and found me with a mask.
16:12He approached excitedly
16:14and extended his hand.
16:16May I have this dance?
16:17Lyra looked up with a trembling smile.
16:20Of course.
16:21Adrian led La in a twirling dance
16:23across the dance floor.
16:24Out said,
16:25rain pounded me.
16:26I stumbled away from school.
16:28Shaked.
16:29My palm flickers light pulsed beneath the skin.
16:32Not now.
16:33Please.
16:34Beta said someone's waiting for me at the gate.
16:37I just have to make it.
16:38I gripped a lamppost.
16:40Electricity crackled along my arm.
16:43The light above my bursts.
16:45I cried out.
16:46Eyes glowed.
16:47At this time,
16:48a figure emerged from the rain.
16:49Adrian checked his watch.
16:5111.55pm.
16:52He pulled out a small velvet box.
16:55Opened it.
16:55A diamond pendant glowed inside.
16:58Five more minutes
16:59until I can finally say it.
17:01He thought.
17:02Bells began to chime.
17:04Midnight.
17:05Adrian reached for Lyra's mask
17:07and lifted it.
17:08Light hit her face.
17:10Lyra?
17:12The knight leaned close to my neck.
17:15His eyes glowed red gradually.
17:17His brows furrowed
17:18as if he was enduring something.
17:19His lips brushed against my skin.
17:21His voice was low and roughed.
17:23You shouldn't be alone tonight.
17:25The hard burge beneath his crotch
17:27pressed tightly against my bare skin
17:29as knight let out a low, raggled breath.
17:32He took hold of my wrist,
17:34the one bearing the mark,
17:35and gently stroked it to my left breast.
17:38Our wrist marks ignited.
17:40In an instant,
17:41heat exploded up my arm.
17:43I let out a startled cry.
17:44My eyes flew wide open.
17:46A strange silver light flickered within them.
17:48I clenched my legs tightly,
17:50trembled uncontrollably.
17:51A vacuous liquid dampened my panties,
17:53trickled slowly down my thighs.
17:55The silver and red light erupted from their marks,
17:57twisted and coiled together.
17:58I can taste your smell.
18:00You're completely mine now.
18:02Knight hay-hilled sharply against my neck.
18:04When the light faded,
18:06I was shaking in his arms.
18:08What did you do to me?
18:10You're wet because you chose me.
18:13You claimed me,
18:14and I claimed you.
18:19Maybe I should just call you mate.
18:21Say my name, Knight.
18:25I was lost in passion.
18:27My breath stuttered.
18:30Knight guided my hand down to my inner thigh,
18:33brushed it through my slip arousal,
18:35then lifted it to his lips
18:37and gently licked my fingers.
18:41Adrian stared at Lyra,
18:43the mask in his hand.
18:44His face crumbled.
18:47Where's Selina?
18:48He asked.
18:49Lyra reached for him.
18:51Panic flashed across her face.
18:53He pulled back.
18:54He turned and burst through the doors into the rain.
18:57Adrian, don't leave me.
19:00Wasn't I the one you wanted?
19:01Her voice broke.
19:03Adrian jumped on his motorcycle.
19:05Headlights cut through rain.
19:07He saw us.
19:08A figure placed me into an SUV.
19:13Selina!
19:14Don't go!
19:14Selina!
19:15Knight glanced back,
19:17then looked away.
19:18The SUV pulled away.
19:20Adrian gunned the engine
19:21and skidded to a stop
19:22but the taillights were already disappearing.
19:25He leaped off the bike
19:26and ran after them
19:27but we were gone.
19:29He fell to his knees
19:30and slammed his fists
19:31into the wet pavement
19:32again and again.
19:34Selina!
19:37I sat at the long table
19:39surrounded by warriors.
19:41Raw meat piled up before me.
19:43Warrior's eyes cut toward me.
19:45Cold and contemptuous.
19:46Human food?
19:48She can't even shift.
19:50Weakest Luna we've ever had.
19:51My hands curled in my lap.
19:53His voice cut through the hall like a blade.
19:55She is my mate.
19:57Your Luna.
19:58Show your respect.
19:59Knight gestured.
20:01Servants appeared with handcakes,
20:03eggs,
20:03bacon.
20:04They set the plates before me.
20:06We followed you for strength,
20:07not to serve a fragile child.
20:10One of the warriors said.
20:11Knight's eyes gleamed.
20:13Next quarter's trials,
20:14she enters the competition.
20:16Shock rippled through the hall.
20:18She'll die.
20:20No, she'll win.
20:22And when she does,
20:23you will kneel to your Luna.
20:25All of you.
20:27Knight looked at me.
20:28I lifted my head.
20:29Silver flickered in my eyes.
20:31See you in the arena.
20:36Morning after morning.
20:38Knight put me through drills.
20:40Relentless,
20:41unforgiving.
20:42I ran until my legs burned.
20:44I was spared until my body aches.
20:46I fell again and again.
20:48Each time,
20:49Knight watched.
20:50Cold and unmoving.
20:51One afternoon,
20:53I lunged at him.
20:54He sidestepped and came into the mat
20:56in one fluid motion.
20:58I gasped,
20:59trapped beneath him.
21:00Again.
21:01He said.
21:02I pushed up.
21:03My knee scraped the mat.
21:04Blood welled from the wound.
21:06I was breathless.
21:08I can keep going.
21:10Concern flickered in his eyes.
21:12He stopped me.
21:13He released me and stood.
21:15A servant approached
21:16with a small plate.
21:18Cream cake.
21:19Knight took it
21:20and lowered himself
21:20to one knee in front of me
21:22between my thighs.
21:23Kids heal faster with sugar.
21:25I'm not a kid.
21:26My face flushed.
21:27He cut a piece
21:29and held the fork to my lips.
21:30I hesitated,
21:32then leaned forward
21:33and took the bite.
21:34As the fork slid out,
21:35a smear of cream lingered
21:36at the corner of my mouth,
21:37and my tongue flicked out
21:39to catch another dab on my lip.
21:40He watched my mouth,
21:42then reached up
21:42and dragged his thumb
21:43slowly across lower lip,
21:44gathered the cream.
21:46His thumb lingered at my lip,
21:47pressed just enough
21:48to part them.
21:49Don't waste.
21:50He said.
21:51I ticked my thumb slowly,
21:53shivered.
21:54Good girl.
21:55I lowered my gaze,
21:57cheeks flushed.
22:00Knight sat behind him
22:02on the bed.
22:03Towel in hand,
22:04gently dried my hair.
22:05I stared down at my wrist.
22:07The mate mark glowed faintly,
22:09dimmer than before.
22:10It's fading.
22:11You won't take me?
22:13Is it because you don't want me?
22:15I asked.
22:16He set the towel aside,
22:18turned me to face him.
22:19I knew your father.
22:21He was my closest friend.
22:23He asked me to protect you.
22:24I never expected fate
22:26to give you to me
22:26as my mate.
22:27So you think it's wrong?
22:29He lifted my wrist,
22:31kissed the mark,
22:32once,
22:33soft.
22:34I'm not saying no.
22:36I just can't lose control.
22:40Not until I know.
22:42Your heart truly chooses me.
22:45My eyes searched his.
22:46Then I lean in
22:47and press my lips to his.
22:48He stilled.
22:49His hand cupped my jaw,
22:51thumb brushing my cheek
22:52as he kissed my back.
22:54When we part,
22:55my forehead rest against his,
22:57both breathing uneasy.
22:59It already has.
23:03Adrian burst through the door.
23:05Beta Cole looked up.
23:06Please.
23:08Just tell me where Selene is.
23:09Let her go.
23:10Adrian,
23:11Serene has her own path to follow.
23:14I'm not giving up.
23:16Adrian turned
23:17and walked out of the room.
23:19The day was coming.
23:20Thousands of wolves
23:21packed the stands.
23:22Their voices rose
23:23in a deafening roar.
23:24Look at her,
23:25the human Luna.
23:26A wolf shouted.
23:28She won't last a minute.
23:30Another wolf said.
23:32Night stood rigid,
23:33arms crossed.
23:34His jaw tightened
23:35as he watched me
23:36step into the ring alone.
23:37I faced my opponent,
23:39a massive wolf
23:40twice my size.
23:41Muscles foiling
23:42under scarred fur.
23:44He circled me,
23:45hungry.
23:45I raised my fists.
23:47He lunged.
23:48I dodged.
23:49But his claw caught my arm.
23:51Blood sprayed.
23:52I hit the ground hard.
23:54Pathetic.
23:55Send her home!
23:56A wolf laughed.
23:57I pushed up.
23:59The wolf struck again.
24:00I flew backward,
24:02skidded across the sand.
24:03Blood pooled beneath me.
24:05Night took a step forward.
24:07The high priest blocked him.
24:09You interfere.
24:10She loses everything.
24:12Night's hands gripped the railing.
24:14His knuckles went white.
24:15In the ring,
24:16I struggled to my knees,
24:18then my feet,
24:19one inch at a time.
24:21My legs shook,
24:22but I stood.
24:23The wolf charged
24:24for the final blow.
24:26Then a sound tore from my chest.
24:28Not human.
24:29Something ancient.
24:30A howl that shook the arena.
24:32White light exploded outward,
24:34blinding.
24:35The wolf skidded to a halt,
24:36whimpered.
24:37When the light faded,
24:38a massive white wolf
24:40stood in the ring.
24:41Fur was like snow.
24:42Eyes were like burning silver.
24:44The opponent snarled and lunged.
24:46The white wolf moved faster
24:48than anything alive.
24:50Jaws closed on the attacker's throat.
24:52A single shake.
24:53He flew across the arena
24:54and lay still.
24:56White wolf.
24:57That's royal blood.
24:58An elder wolf said
25:00with voice trembling.
25:01One by one,
25:02the wolves lowered themselves,
25:04nailed and pressed
25:05their foreheads to the ground.
25:06Then all wolves charged.
25:08Luna!
25:08Luna!
25:09The light shimmered and faded.
25:12I stood again,
25:13human now wrapped in cloth.
25:15Trembled but alive,
25:16night descended into the ring.
25:18He walked to me,
25:19took my hand and lifted it high
25:21for everyone to see.
25:22A motorcycle ripped
25:23through the arena gates.
25:24Adrian jumped off
25:25and stubbled toward me,
25:27his face pale.
25:28Serene,
25:29you're a wolf.
25:35Adrian rushed toward me.
25:37You're a wolf?
25:37How?
25:39You were human.
25:40You've always been.
25:41He reached for me.
25:42Come home with me.
25:44I'll protect you.
25:45Night stepped between us.
25:46Protect her.
25:47You didn't even know
25:48what she was.
25:49Adrian frozen.
25:51He stared at me.
25:53Something about me
25:54was different.
25:55The way I held myself.
25:57The light in my eyes.
25:59Like a queen.
26:00What happened?
26:01She awakened.
26:03She's a white wolf.
26:04Your moon packs alpha.
26:06Night said coldly.
26:07The words hit like a blow.
26:10Adrian's face pales.
26:11Sylvine,
26:12I know I don't deserve you now,
26:14but I searched for you
26:15for three months.
26:16I never stopped.
26:18I met his eyes calmly.
26:20Lyra is your mate,
26:21Adrian.
26:21Not me.
26:23Adrian staggered
26:24like I struck him.
26:25Then let me prove it.
26:26A duel.
26:28Winner takes her home.
26:29Wolf warrior leaned forward.
26:31Night's eyes narrowed.
26:33Fine.
26:33No.
26:34I refuse.
26:36I'm the prize.
26:37Not a prize.
26:38Not for either of you.
26:40I looked at Adrian,
26:42but no less certain.
26:43I won't go back with you.
26:45Not because of Lyra.
26:47Because I finally found my mate.
26:53The crowd fell silent.
26:56Night's jaw sightened,
26:57then slowly relaxed.
26:58He walked toward me.
27:00One step.
27:01Then another.
27:02Adrian stood frozen.
27:04Are you sure?
27:05I looked up at him.
27:06Didn't flinch.
27:07I'm sure.
27:08You're my only love.
27:10He tilted my chin up,
27:12without hesitation.
27:14Night kissed me.
27:15Acclaim.
27:15And Alpha marked his territory.
27:17I trembled,
27:18but didn't pull away.
27:19My fingers gripped his shirt.
27:21A low growl rippled
27:23through the wolves,
27:24shocked and submission
27:25tangled together.
27:26Adrian stumbled back
27:27like he had been struck
27:28by lightning.
27:29Disbelief written
27:29all over his face.
27:32Knight broke the kiss.
27:33His voice was calm.
27:35She's my mate.
27:36You can't take her.
27:38I turned to Adrian.
27:39Adrian,
27:40I'm not your home.
27:42Adrian stood frozen.
27:43His face paled and trembled.
27:46Adrian Cole,
27:47you fool.
27:48You let her go once,
27:49and now you can't bear
27:51to watch her belong to another.
27:52You deserve this.
27:54Every damn piece of it.
27:55Laya stood before a fireplace,
27:58hooded.
27:58Several black-clad killers
28:00kneeled before me.
28:02Find her.
28:03You know what to do.
28:04The assassin leader nodded.
28:06Selene,
28:07the human girl.
28:09We'll deal with her on the road.
28:10Lyra lifted my head.
28:12A strange satisfaction
28:13gleamed in my eyes.
28:15She's not human.
28:16She's Alpha Heart's daughter.
28:17My father died by his hands.
28:19I've waited years for this.
28:22She paused,
28:23smiles coldly.
28:25She will die
28:25before she truly awakens.
28:30Serene,
28:31may you always be happy.
28:33Just remember Moonpack
28:34is your support.
28:35Adrian walked toward
28:36his motorcycle.
28:37I'll send you to the edge of town.
28:39You're still my brother.
28:40Adrian froze for a moment,
28:42watched me walk toward him.
28:44A bitter smile
28:45crossed his face.
28:46From now on,
28:48let me protect you
28:49from the shadows.
28:50The motorcycle rode along
28:51the forest path.
28:53An arrow whistled past my arm.
28:54Black-clowed figures
28:56emerged from the trees.
28:58Adrian jumped off
28:59the motorcycle
28:59with me in his arms.
29:01A blade sliced toward me.
29:03He threw himself
29:04in front of it.
29:05The steel bit into his side.
29:07Run!
29:08He conropsted.
29:09Bones cracked.
29:11Fur ripped through skin.
29:12A massive wolf
29:13now stood between
29:14the assassins and me.
29:15He launched,
29:16tore into them,
29:17and fought like
29:18something feral.
29:19Knight's hand gripped
29:20his chest.
29:21The mat marked Burns.
29:23Selene!
29:24He was already moving.
29:26Adrian fought on.
29:27Wounded.
29:28Three assassins circled him.
29:29A fork aimed at me.
29:31A blur of motion.
29:32Knight's blade
29:33took the assassin down.
29:34His warriors descended.
29:36The fight ended in seconds.
29:38Knight pulled me against him.
29:40Are you hurt?
29:41I shook my head,
29:42looked past him at Adrian.
29:43Bleeding.
29:44Human again.
29:45On his knees.
29:46Knight followed my gaze,
29:48saw the markings
29:48on the dead assassins.
29:50Lyra's work.
29:51My face paled.
29:53Adrian struggled to stand.
29:55She wants you dead.
29:56I know.
29:58This day finally came.
30:01Lyra stared into the fire.
30:04Flamed flicker,
30:05then twist.
30:06Lyra's face went pale.
30:08Her hands clenched.
30:09The door bruised open.
30:11I stood in the doorway,
30:12a faint silver glow
30:13radiating from me.
30:15Adrian and Knight flanked me.
30:17Lyra stumbled back.
30:18Surprised to see me?
30:20I laughed coldly.
30:21Lyra's eyes darted,
30:23calculating,
30:23desperate.
30:24She opened her mouth
30:25to whimper,
30:26to play the victim.
30:27What are you going to do to me?
30:29Adrian, help me!
30:31Don't play victim.
30:32You know everything.
30:34Your father tried to steal
30:35the alpha title.
30:36He died a traitor.
30:38And you,
30:38you've spent years
30:40making sure I paid for it.
30:41Adrian looked at Lyra coldly.
30:43You liar.
30:44The dress.
30:45The needle.
30:46It was all you.
30:48Lyra's mask cracked.
30:49Her eyes went cold.
30:51You think I'd let her
30:52take everything?
30:53My father died
30:54because of her father!
30:56Her body convulsed.
30:57Bones cracked.
30:59Fur ripped through skin.
31:00A dark wolf lunged at me,
31:02jaws wide.
31:03Knight stepped forward.
31:04My hand stopped him.
31:06Fine.
31:06My body convulsed.
31:08Silver light exploded.
31:09In seconds,
31:10a massive white wolf
31:11stood in my place.
31:12The two wolves collided.
31:14Teeth teared.
31:16Claws slashed.
31:17They moved in a blur
31:18of fur and blood.
31:19The white wolf
31:20gained the upper hand.
31:21Jaws closed around
31:22the other's throat.
31:23One snap.
31:24Silence.
31:25The dark wolf crumpled.
31:27Shimmered.
31:28Lyra lied still,
31:29human again.
31:30Then she becomes ashes.
31:32Light shimmered around me.
31:34I transformed into human again.
31:36I straightened and walked
31:37toward the door
31:38without looking back.
31:39It's over.
31:42Sunlight streams
31:43through towering windows.
31:45The hall was packed.
31:46Wolves stood
31:47shoulder by shoulder.
31:48I stood at the center,
31:50dressed in silver and white.
31:53I looked regal.
31:55Beta Cole and Adrian
31:56watched from the front row,
31:58eyes glistening.
31:59Knight descended
32:00from the throne.
32:01In his hands,
32:02a crown,
32:02delicate silver,
32:04caught light
32:04like frozen stars.
32:06I was born ready.
32:09I smiled.
32:11I was born ready.
32:12He placed the crown
32:13on my head,
32:14then took my hand
32:15and lifted it to his lips,
32:16kissy knuckles once,
32:18slow,
32:18deliberate,
32:19reverent.
32:20The hall erupted,
32:21howls,
32:22tweers,
32:22stomping feet.
32:23Then all loudly.
32:27I looked at Knight.
32:28He was already
32:29looking at me.
32:31I smiled.
32:32Mountains rise
32:33in the distance.
32:34Moonlight pours down
32:35like liquid silver.
32:37Two wolves streak
32:38across the valley.
32:39One white is me.
32:40One black is Knight.
32:41I leap,
32:42tacking the dark one
32:43mid-stride.
32:44We tumble together
32:45down a grassy slope,
32:46a tangle of fur and limbs
32:47until we roll to a stop
32:48at the bottom.
32:49Then fur gives way to skin.
32:51Pamping gives way to breathing.
32:53Ragged,
32:54human,
32:55close.
32:55We lie tangled together
32:56at the base of the slope,
32:58no longer wolves.
32:59My hair spills across his arm.
33:01He lowers his head
33:02with a soft smile.
33:05Take me to Knight.
33:06Knight.
33:07His mouth finds mine,
33:08slow at first,
33:09then deeper.
33:10My fingers slide
33:11into his hair.
33:12His hand traces down my side,
33:15over my hip,
33:16pulling me closer.
33:17Every night,
33:18for the rest of my life.
33:20The moonlight spills over us.
33:22My head fall back,
33:23his lips find my throat.
33:25A soft sound escapes me.
33:27Our two figures move together
33:28in the silver light,
33:30skin against skin.
33:30nothing between us now.
33:32The mountains keep watching us.
