Short filmTranscript
00:01I am the third child of the alpha and luna of the blackwood pack, but I am a wolfless.
00:06My father wrapped me in a piece of animal hide and planned to throw me into the forest to feed
00:10the beasts.
00:11Maybe she is weak, but not completely useless.
00:14The elder side. So I lived. Not because I was loved, just because I still had a little use.
00:20Two months later, my mother became pregnant again.
00:23They almost disappeared completely from the pack site, hiding in a secret den deep in the mountains.
00:28As for me, I grew up on the scraps my six-year-old sister Lydia managed to feed me.
00:33When I was little I was strong. I could chew raw bones at six months.
00:37She was afraid I would starve to death. I just didn't have a choice.
00:41Later, my mother finally gave birth to a real alpha heir, Alexander.
00:45Every day she carried Alexander around the territory, accepting congratulations.
00:50And me? I was just an extra pup in the den.
00:53Many times, I was even tied beside the wooden bed with a rough hide rope.
00:57As an omega, I had to learn to do housework every day from the age of three.
01:01My mother hated me. She often stabbed me with silver needles.
01:05She sent me to live in the worst house and made me do all the dirtiest, hardest work.
01:10Because I was malnourished and forced to do labor far beyond my age, I got sick often.
01:14When I was five, it was the age when young wolves were supposed to start basic training.
01:19That same year, I got very sick.
01:21The fever wouldn't go down, and I coughed for the entire night.
01:25My coughing even spread to Alexander.
01:27Only then did my mother reluctantly take us to a healer near the border.
01:30My mother carried Alexander and walked very fast.
01:34As if she couldn't wait to get farther away from me.
01:37Mom!
01:37I called out again and again.
01:39But she never turned back.
01:41That night, the wind and snow were biting cold.
01:44My hands and feet slowly lost feeling.
01:46In the end, I collapsed in the snow.
01:50But when I woke up again, I was lying on a soft bed.
01:53Soon, a chubby woman walked in carrying a bowl of hot porridge.
01:57I devoured the whole thing.
01:59She asked where my home was and said she would take me back.
02:02I told her my name was Sansa, from the Blackwood Pack.
02:05She carried me on her back as we walked toward my home.
02:08The teenagers chatted with me all the way.
02:11Halfway there, snow began to fall again.
02:13The boy walking in front quietly took off his fur gloves and put them on my freezing hands.
02:17I heard Lydia's voice from inside.
02:20Where's Sansa?
02:21Why didn't she come back last night?
02:23Better if she died outside.
02:25Then she wouldn't come back and infect Alexander.
02:28I couldn't stop myself from coughing violently.
02:31When my mother saw me, there was no joy on her face only clear disappointment.
02:35My father muttered under his breath.
02:37Why isn't she dead yet?
02:39The snow fell harder and harder.
02:40I stood in the yard, watching their backs as they slowly disappeared.
02:44The gloves on my hands were clearly too big, yet I was still shivering from the cold.
02:48My father ordered me to cook.
02:50I didn't move.
02:51He rushed out with a broom in his hand.
02:54The woman suddenly returned through the wind and snow.
02:56She stood in front of me and looked at me silently for a long time.
03:00This child, give her to me.
03:02My family just happens to need an Omega to help out.
03:06That day, in front of a Blackwood pack elder and several witnesses from the pack, the woman
03:10bought me and took me away with 16 silver coins.
03:13She's a cursed disaster.
03:15Once you take her, she's yours.
03:17Don't bring her back later if you decide you don't want her.
03:20She just took my hand and led me away from the pack where I had been born.
03:23Her name was Lisa.
03:25She lived with a small werewolf family on the edge of the mountains.
03:28But that was the first place where I ate a full bowl of hot soup.
03:31That night, she dressed me in her youngest son's old clothes.
03:34Then she bought me thick socks and boots.
03:37At night, she held me while I slept.
03:39She smelled warm, like a gentle wolf.
03:42Her three sons were kind to me too.
03:44Whenever there was something good to eat at home, they always shared it with me first.
03:49Life like that was too good.
03:50So good that I often wondered if I was dreaming.
03:53Winter grew colder and colder.
03:55As the end of year approached, Lisa's mate, David, came home.
03:59He was tall and very strong but his face looked serious.
04:02When Lisa pushed me forward to meet him, he frowned.
04:07Our family is already struggling.
04:09Why did you bring another child home?
04:11If you bring her here, it's for life.
04:13She doesn't eat much.
04:15I couldn't just watch her get tortured to death.
04:18I don't have any money left.
04:19She keeps coughing.
04:20I want to take her to see a healer tomorrow.
04:23That night, I buried my face in the blanket and tears quietly slid down my cheeks.
04:28Before the sun even rose the next morning, Lisa woke me up.
04:32She said she was taking me to see a healer.
04:34I grabbed the doorframe and refused to go outside.
04:37I was scared.
04:38Finally David came over, picked me up, and carried me outside.
04:42Halfway down the road, we ran into a healer who had come back to town to visit family.
04:46He checked my body and said it wasn't anything serious.
04:50Just long-term malnutrition.
04:52I took the medicine for three days, and my body really did start to feel much better.
04:56By then it was two days before the new year.
04:59The town was preparing for its annual winter festival.
05:02It was the first time I had ever seen a place that lively.
05:04That was when I noticed a little boy.
05:06He was being held tightly by a middle-aged man and woman.
05:10His eyes were full of tears.
05:12The man and woman clearly didn't belong to the pack.
05:14When they noticed people staring, they started to panic and tried to drag the boy through the forest.
05:20Lisa had always been kind-hearted.
05:22She immediately rushed over with us.
05:24Wait!
05:25Whose child is that?
05:28Our child.
05:29Mind your own business.
05:31But the boy kept crying and shaking his head.
05:34Soon a crowd gathered around them.
05:36The man and woman panicked completely.
05:38In the chaos, they abandoned the boy and ran into the forest.
05:41Lisa gathered us kids and prepared to send the boy home.
05:44But he couldn't tell us where his home was.
05:47He seemed mute.
05:48You still have time to worry about others.
05:51Your husband fell off the roof.
05:52Go back and check on him.
05:54Lisa froze.
05:55Their family depended mostly on David working construction in the human city.
05:58If something happened to him, the whole family would collapse.
06:01She told the oldest, Ryan, to take us home.
06:05You're the big brother now.
06:07Your brothers and sister are counting on you.
06:10I trust you.
06:14That day the snow fell heavily.
06:16Ryan led the four of us back through the snow, step by step.
06:19Ryan cooked dinner, but none of us had an appetite.
06:22Only the little boy, who was starving, ate a whole bowl.
06:25When the sky was just starting to lighten, Lisa came back.
06:28Her eyes were red, and she looked exhausted.
06:31She packed up everything valuable in the house, then went door to door borrowing money.
06:35Lisa borrowed from almost everyone in the pack.
06:38In the end, she only managed to gather a little over 1,000 silver coins.
06:42I ran after her with a whole deer leg from the kitchen.
06:45Mom, these can be sold for money too.
06:50Keep them for you kids to eat, Sasha.
06:52You will always be your father and mother's daughter.
06:55She told Ryan to take good care of me and the little boy.
06:58She said we shouldn't worry.
06:59She would handle David's situation.
07:02My birth mother heard about what happened.
07:04She came to our house and spat on the ground angrily.
07:07You're a jinx.
07:08If this disaster comes back to my pack, we won't take her.
07:11She might as well die outside.
07:13Ryan grabbed my hand and said firmly,
07:16Sasha is my sister.
07:17As long as I'm alive, she won't go hungry.
07:20We'll never send her back.
07:21Of course I want her to have a good life.
07:23I wish she'd grow up rich and powerful, but she just doesn't have that fate.
07:30At lunch that day, I only ate a small lump of rice, about the size of an egg.
07:34But Ryan filled another bowl for me.
07:36Then he placed the last spoonful of meat into my bowl.
07:39Eat.
07:40He also added another spoonful of meat to the little boy's bowl.
07:44You eat more too.
07:45The boy opened his mouth for a long time.
07:47Finally, he struggled to say a word.
07:51In the evening, Lydia came to see me.
07:53She looked at the clothes I was wearing.
07:56Did Lisa buy you new clothes?
07:58Mom said if Lisa decides she doesn't want you later, she'll send you to the rogues.
08:01I only came to tell you because you're my sister.
08:04That night, Lisa didn't come back from the hospital.
08:07I had a nightmare.
08:09I dreamed I had been sent back to my birth parents.
08:11They locked me in an iron cage and whipped me.
08:14I woke up in terror.
08:15Then I heard loud knocking on the door outside and the elder's anxious voice.
08:21Ryan woke up too and hurried to open the door.
08:24It turned out the little boy's parents had found us.
08:26When the middle-aged woman saw the sleepy boy, she rushed forward, pulled him into her arms,
08:31and burst into tears.
08:32The boy struggled for a long time before finally saying,
08:35Mom.
08:36She grabbed my hand and thanked me again and again.
08:39Sasha, what do you want?
08:41Whatever it is, I'll give it to you.
08:43I just want my dad to be safe.
08:48They're both kind people.
08:50Sansa's adopted.
08:52Sadly, good people don't always get good luck.
08:55Good people deserve good things.
08:58Your father will be fine.
09:00Early the next morning, they took us to the healer's house.
09:03They transferred David out and moved him to the healer's house of the Redwood Pack.
09:07Only then did we learn who they really were.
09:10They were the Alpha and Luna of Redwood.
09:12If it weren't for you, Ethan would have been taken by the Rogers.
09:16If we lost him, Redwood would lose its heir.
09:19Soon the two women were crying together.
09:21And somehow, the shock even cured the problem that had kept him from speaking before.
09:27When David came out of the operating room, the healer announced that his leg had been saved.
09:31Three days after the surgery, they drove us back to our pack.
09:35Ethan held my hand tightly.
09:37Sansa come.
09:38He said slowly.
09:39Lisa talked with Mary for a while.
09:41Then she crouched down and asked me gently.
09:43Would you like to go with them?
09:44I looked at Lisa in panic.
09:46Did Mom think I was bad luck?
09:49Mary and Ethan like you.
09:51If you go with them, you'll have a better flight.
09:53Mary hugged me.
09:54You're a good child.
09:56We'll see each other again.
09:58Because of the delay in treatment, David's leg still had some lasting problems.
10:02If he walked too fast, he would limp.
10:06Lisa often told pack members that if I hadn't noticed something strange about Ethan that day,
10:10our family might have fallen apart.
10:12Even David called me his lucky star.
10:14Everyone praised me.
10:16Only my birth parents didn't care.
10:18In their eyes, if it weren't for me, maybe David wouldn't have fallen in the first place.
10:22They still didn't like me.
10:24But it didn't matter anymore.
10:25As long as my mom, dad, and brothers loved me.
10:29That was enough.
10:30A few days later, Mary and Chris brought Ethan to visit David.
10:33Mary said they could arrange for my dad to work as a patrol guard in the Redwood Pack.
10:37The pay would be 500 silver coins a month, and the job would be much easier than construction.
10:42She asked if he wanted it.
10:43As for Lisa, she could apply to be a substitute teacher at Redwood's Werewolf Academy.
10:48If she did well, she might even become a full-time teacher later.
10:51And for the four of us kids, she said she could help arrange for us to transfer into Redwood's
10:55Werewolf Academy.
10:56Lisa was worried about causing them trouble.
10:59But Mary said it was nothing.
11:00She only hoped that my brothers and I could spend more time playing with Ethan in the future.
11:06Because after Ethan returned home, he stopped talking again.
11:10The only time he tried to speak was when Mary told him they were coming to visit us.
11:14News of this good fortune quickly spread through the whole pack.
11:17Even my birth parents in the Blackwood Pack heard about it.
11:20Before Ethan's family left, my birth parents came to our house.
11:24My birth mother wore a warm smile I had never seen before.
11:26She grabbed my hand and said,
11:28I went through so much pain to give birth to Sava.
11:31I'm her real mother.
11:32My birth father came over and grabbed my arm.
11:34David, we thought it over.
11:36We just can't bear to give up this daughter.
11:39Sansa should come back and live with us.
11:43Lisa panicked and rushed forward, trying to pull their hands away.
11:46Be gentle, please.
11:48Don't hurt the child.
11:49But my birth parents didn't loosen their grip at all.
11:52Mary frowned but didn't say anything at first.
11:55She crouched down and asked me quietly.
11:59Are they really your parents?
12:01I pressed my lips together and stayed silent.
12:04I knew they only wanted me back because the Redwood Pack was much stronger than Blackwood.
12:08Mary understood that my birth mother was telling the truth.
12:11Her expression turned troubled.
12:13My birth mother forced another smile.
12:16I don't really ask for much.
12:17Just get my son into the Redwood Academy and help us deal with those rogues on the border.
12:22Mary only looked at me.
12:23I gathered all my courage, pointed at Lisa and David.
12:27They are my parents.
12:30My birth mother's face changed instantly.
12:33She started cursing loudly.
12:34My birth father even raised his arm to slap me.
12:37At that moment, David stepped forward and shoved him hard.
12:40My daughter is not someone you get to hit.
12:43Then he picked me up and handed me to Lisa.
12:45Take Sansa and stand back.
12:47David was usually quiet, but now he walked to the corner and grabbed a weapon from the wall.
12:51Since Sansa now calls me her father, you're not taking her away.
12:55My birth mother looked embarrassed and angry.
12:57I gave birth to her!
12:59That's the truth!
13:00Sansa did help Ethan.
13:01But Lisa, the one who stepped forward when it mattered.
13:04If we treat Sasha well, it's also because of Lisa.
13:07She paused before continuing.
13:10The pack has its rules.
13:12We can't break them just to arrange favors.
13:14My birth parents didn't get what they wanted.
13:16I felt like I had caused trouble, and tears kept falling from my eyes.
13:20Mary gently touched my head.
13:22Sansa, don't cry.
13:23You did very well.
13:25Lisa spent a few days packing up everything at home.
13:28Five days later, we moved to the Redwood Pack.
13:30Mary arranged for us to live near the Alpha's palace, so Ethan could easily come and play with us.
13:35We started attending the Werewolf Academy together with Ethan.
13:39No one there knew he was the Alpha's heir.
13:41He was very smart, but because he had trouble speaking clearly, he was often bullied.
13:46I was afraid of the other wolves too.
13:48After all, I was just an Omega but I knew I had to protect him.
13:52So whenever someone tried to bully him, I would stand in front of him.
13:55There were many kids in our family, and I always encouraged Ethan to talk.
13:59Little by little, his speech became clearer.
14:01Though every time he helped me with homework, he would call me an idiot.
14:05And honestly, I wasn't very smart.
14:10My grades were always average.
14:12But my brothers were amazing.
14:14They were almost always at the top of their class.
14:17Lisa was very busy.
14:19She knew this job had been arranged by the Alpha,
14:21so she worked extremely hard teaching her students and never dared to slack off.
14:25The students all loved her.
14:27When the class she taught graduated with excellent results,
14:30Lisa passed the exams and evaluations and officially became a full-time teacher.
14:35David never slacked off at work either.
14:37Other patrol guards often slept during night shifts,
14:39but he stayed awake and patrolled all night.
14:42He was also very helpful and often covered shifts for others.
14:45One day, when some rogues attacked the pack, the other wolves hesitated to step forward.
14:50David fought back fiercely.
14:51He defeated the rogues and protected the pack's secrets,
14:54but he was seriously injured in the process.
14:58Mary came to visit David and reminded him seriously not to do something like that again.
15:03Your life comes first.
15:04David gave a simple, honest smile.
15:06You're the one who gave me this job.
15:09Protecting the pack is my duty.
15:10The elders all came to check on him.
15:12As it happened, the patrol captain was being transferred somewhere else.
15:16The elders announced that David would become the new captain.
15:19He had earned it with his life on the line, and no one objected.
15:22The elders also offered to let our family officially join the Redwood pack and receive its protection.
15:27So we settled down in Redwood.
15:29Our living conditions improved a lot.
15:32When my birth mother heard the news, she still refused to give up.
15:36She didn't want to lose the chance to cooperate with Redwood.
15:38When we went back to visit our old small pack once, she secretly came to me and said,
15:43Even if you stay in Redwood, you're still just a useless omega.
15:46Let Alexander go study at Redwood Academy.
15:50When he grows into a powerful alpha, you can return to Blackwood and live under his protection.
15:55I ignored her and pushed her out.
15:57You're so annoying.
15:57I stopped being part of Blackwood when I was five.
16:01She left while cursing.
16:04To avoid more harassment from her and to focus on our studies,
16:07Lisa kept us living in Redwood and rarely took us back there again.
16:11Every werewolf found their mate when they turned 18.
16:13Time passed quickly.
16:15Before I knew it, I was 15.
16:17One day my grandmother fell ill, so Lisa took us back to visit her.
16:21She wasn't my real grandmother, but she had always treated me kindly,
16:24and I did my best to take care of her.
16:26On the second day after we arrived,
16:28my birth mother showed up at the door with a rough-looking middle-aged rogue.
16:32He was the mate she had chosen for me.
16:35You're an omega.
16:36Your future mate will be some lowly omega anyway.
16:39Kane is a powerful wolf.
16:41He's a bit older than you, but he has real strength.
16:44Much better than whatever useless mate you'd end up with.
16:46Kane looked me up and down, clearly pleased.
16:49He raised two fingers confidently.
16:51I'll pay 200,000 silver coins.
16:54If you give me a strong heir, I'll give another 100,000 later.
16:59My birth mother pulled Lisa aside and lowered her voice.
17:02I won't take it all.
17:03I'll take 150,000.
17:05You take 50,000.
17:07You didn't raise this girl for nothing.
17:09Santa is only 15.
17:11She hasn't even reached the age to find a mate.
17:14That's exactly why this is the perfect chance.
17:17Once she finds a mate, you won't get a chance like this.
17:20Then she grabbed me and pushed me toward Kane.
17:23Kane seized me roughly and tried to mark me.
17:26I fought back with everything I had.
17:28After several years at the werewolf academy, my abilities had improved a little.
17:33My wolf claws scratched across Kane's face.
17:35He held in pain and threw me aside, curling up on the ground.
17:39Everyone was shocked.
17:40Lisa quickly pulled me behind her.
17:42Just then, Mary arrived with Ethan to visit my grandmother.
17:46When she heard what happened, she was furious.
17:48She announced that Redwood would cut off cooperation with Blackwood
17:52and ordered people to drive my birth mother and the rogue away.
17:54I returned to Redwood with Mary and continued going to academy with Ethan.
17:58He had great grades and was handsome, so he attracted a lot of attention.
18:02Because of him, people kept staring at me and asking questions.
18:06It gave me a lot of pressure.
18:10One day after school I couldn't help saying,
18:12Ethan, maybe we should walk home separately from now on.
18:15Why?
18:16People keep saying we're dating.
18:18Do you even finish your homework?
18:19No.
18:20Then why do you have time to listen to gossip?
18:22So in the end, he kept walking home with me like always.
18:25Still, I had another problem.
18:28A lot of girls asked me to deliver love letters to Ethan.
18:31After I played messenger a few times, Ethan actually reported me to Lisa.
18:36After that I had no choice but to refuse the job, which made quite a few female wolves angry at
18:40me.
18:41My grades still didn't improve even Lisa eventually gave up trying to tutor me.
18:44Only Ethan kept teaching me every day, again and again and again.
18:48He was so persistent that I felt too embarrassed to slack off.
18:51So I worked as hard as I could.
18:53The next spring, something happened to the Redwood pack.
18:57The pack's secrets were leaked, and rogues from nearby areas launched attacks.
19:01Mary and Chris fought on the front lines the whole time.
19:04For years, our family had lived well in Redwood under Ethan's family's protection.
19:08Now the pack was in trouble, and we were ready to defend it too.
19:12My three brothers even prepared to go to the battlefield.
19:15Mary was touched, but she refused.
19:17She held Lisa's hands and said quietly,
19:20Krimis and I die in this war, please take care of Ethan.
19:23Don't worry, I'll treat him like my own child.
19:26On the surface Ethan looked the same as always.
19:28But I knew he was struggling.
19:30As the heir, he wasn't allowed to go to the battlefield.
19:34He had to stay in a safe place and wait.
19:36Watching him grow thinner day by day made me anxious, so I stayed with him every day.
19:40One afternoon the school unexpectedly gave us half a day off.
19:43I dragged him out for a walk near the safe border of the pack.
19:47The weather suddenly changed.
19:49Strong winds blew across the riverbank, and there were very few members around.
19:53The wind made my head spin, and I was about to suggest going back.
19:56Then we saw an old man fall into the river not far ahead.
19:59He struggled in the water, splashing desperately, about to sink.
20:03I didn't think about anything else.
20:05I kicked off my shoes and jumped into the river.
20:10As an omega, I had learned to do all kinds of work since I was little.
20:13I could swim when I was three.
20:15But when someone is drowning, they grab anything they can.
20:18The old man locked his arms tightly around my neck.
20:21I swallowed a lot of water.
20:23Luckily, Ethan found a long bamboo pole and pulled both of us to the shore.
20:27The moment I climbed out, he started yelling at me.
20:31Are you crazy?
20:33Trying to play hero?
20:34If I hadn't found that pole, you'd both be dead.
20:38He looked really scary.
20:39I hugged my arms and shivered.
20:41Ethan, I'm cold.
20:44His eyes were red.
20:45He took off his coat and wrapped it around me.
20:48Sancha, don't do something like that again, okay?
20:52But the old man wasn't the only one we pulled out of the river.
20:55Another wolf climbed up too.
20:57The moment he stood up, he rushed toward the old man and tried to kill him.
21:00At the critical moment, Ethan ran forward and stopped him.
21:04They started fighting.
21:05But Ethan was still underage.
21:07Against a fully grown wolf, he was quickly pushed back.
21:11When the rogue raised his weapon to stab Ethan, I rushed forward.
21:15We struggled together.
21:17Somehow I felt a strange power building inside my body, like something about to burst out.
21:21And somehow, I killed that adult wolf.
21:24Ethan brought both me and the old man to the healer's house.
21:27I was actually fine, but Ethan insisted the healer examine me.
21:31Soon Lisa and Mary arrived one after the other.
21:33They were terrified and both lectured me for acting so recklessly.
21:37Just then, someone knocked on the hospital room door.
21:41Is this Santa's room?
21:43Mary turned around and looked surprised.
21:46Elder Michael?
21:47Why are you here?
21:48Lisa and I were both shocked.
21:50The most respected elder of the werewolf council, Michael looked just as surprised.
21:55You know Sasha, she's a member of our pack.
21:58I glanced at Lisa.
21:59She gave me a small encouraging nod.
22:02Mom, am I just a member?
22:04Aren't I your dear daughter?
22:05Mary froze for a second, then quickly understood.
22:08You silly child.
22:10Patting my head.
22:11Michael had come to thank me.
22:12But I shook my head.
22:13It wasn't just me who saved you.
22:15If Ethan hadn't been there, both the elder and I would have drowned.
22:19He was the one who held the bamboo pole on the shore.
22:21Ethan just can't swim otherwise he would have jumped in himself.
22:24Michael looked at Ethan with approval.
22:26Mary, Redwood has a very kind air.
22:28After escorting Michael out, Mary came back and thanked me quietly.
22:33But Michael wasn't easy to fool.
22:35Mary said that he would definitely investigate what happened.
22:37About a month later, Chris returned from the front lines.
22:41The werewolf council had sent troops to help Redwood resist the rogue attacks.
22:45They also helped uncover the traitor who had leaked the pack's secrets.
22:48The council usually insisted on neutrality.
22:51They didn't favor any pack.
22:52Only the strong survived.
22:54But this time, the investigation revealed that someone within the council had leaked Redwood's secrets to the rogues and had
23:00even tried to assassinate Michael.
23:02To make up for their mistake, the council sent forces to help Redwood.
23:05And finally, Pete
