Short filmTranscript
00:01El día de mi madre suicidó, decidí que rompé la bondad con Seraphina.
00:04Ella me ha estado testando por tres años,
00:07pretendiendo ser packless, pretendiendo ser weak.
00:10El día uno.
00:11Yo heldé la funeral de madre alone.
00:13El día tres.
00:14Yo he donado todo mi dinero a la orfanía.
00:17El dinero era para nuestra ceremonia de mating.
00:20El día cinco.
00:21Yo he rechazado los keys a la habitación de la habitación.
00:24Seraphina's lip curled.
00:26Ella snarled que me seguía que no podía tener un rostro.
00:30Ahora tenemos que moverme de nuevo.
00:31No responde.
00:32Just packed in silence.
00:34Mi silencio en rave y la war.
00:36Ella se dejó con Seraphina.
00:38Back to the pack estate.
00:40Un mes después, yo se ve en la ciudad de la ciudad de la ciudad de la ciudad de la
00:42ciudad.
00:43I bought our old apartment.
00:45Her eyes were red.
00:46Let's go home.
00:49Seve días después de la madre, Seraphina finalmente regresó el dinero.
00:54Take this.
00:55Save your mom.
00:56Seraphina paid off mi dinero.
00:57Her tone was stiff.
01:00Resentful, even.
01:01Still angry that I'd chosen mother over her that day.
01:04I stared at the bank card.
01:05My vision blurred.
01:07I said nothing.
01:08Seraphina's face darkened.
01:09I knew it.
01:11Your mother is more important to me!
01:14I already returned the money.
01:16Are you still angry with me?
01:18She threw the card to the floor.
01:20It clattered on the tiles.
01:21My heart tore open.
01:24The pain was unbearable.
01:26I remembered that day, when I delivered food to her company.
01:29What Damon had said.
01:31Omega's like Elias' mom.
01:32The ones who raise their sons alone.
01:34They get possessive.
01:35They compete with mates for their son's loyalty.
01:37Now that his mom is sick, you need to test him.
01:40See who matters more.
01:42His mother or you.
01:43The more he suffers, the more it proves he loves you.
01:46We're not actually broke.
01:47We just need to see if he'll put you first.
01:49That night, Seraphina told me she'd broken her boss's precious vase.
01:54She needed to repay it fast or face pack justice.
01:57That was the first time I felt exhausted.
02:00I didn't even want to play this game anymore.
02:02I'd known the truth for a year already.
02:04She was the Alpha Cane's daughter.
02:06Seraphina of the Southern Pack.
02:07She couldn't be broke.
02:09She couldn't owe debts.
02:12A year ago, I was working part-time at an elite club.
02:15Saving for buying a house.
02:17I watched her open a bottle of wine that cost three years of my wages.
02:20She laughed with the high-born wolves around her.
02:23Elias gave me everything.
02:25His mother's savings.
02:27Everything he earned.
02:28I think...
02:29I want to accept the mating bond.
02:31That's when I understood.
02:33Her father's gambling debts.
02:35The car accident she caused.
02:37All tests.
02:38Then Damon leaned in.
02:39Love is sweet at first.
02:41But time reveals true nature.
02:43You're worth millions in pack assets.
02:45What if he's just after your status?
02:47Seraphina nodded.
02:49After that, she never mentioned mating again.
02:51But she still lived in the shabby apartment with me.
02:54Rode the bus.
02:55Ate street food.
02:56So I pretended not to know.
02:58I worked harder.
02:59Treated her better.
03:00Hoped she'd trust me enough to complete the bond.
03:03But this time, it was mother.
03:05Life or death.
03:06She shouldn't test me with lies.
03:08Not now.
03:09I went cold for the first time.
03:11My voice was firm.
03:12The money goes to save my mother first.
03:15I didn't expect what came next.
03:17Seraphina transferred all of mother's healing funds away.
03:20I just wanted to see your attitude.
03:23You didn't even hesitate.
03:26Elias, I was wrong about you.
03:28She spat those words and vanished.
03:30No calls.
03:31No messages.
03:34Later, I saw Damon's social media.
03:37She'd gone abroad to clear her head.
03:39I punched the wall.
03:40Blood ran down my knuckles.
03:42I felt nothing.
03:43That night, mother committed suicide.
03:46Her note was brief.
03:47I won't burden you anymore.
03:49Be happy with Seraphina.
03:50I don't know what she saw.
03:52What made her choose to end her life.
03:54I only knew I couldn't honor even her last wish.
03:57Tears filled my eyes.
03:58Seraphina's form blurred before me.
04:01Damon said you took out a loan.
04:02The healer already treated her.
04:03Nothing was delayed.
04:04Why are you still angry?
04:06Do you know how hard it was for me to ask Damon for help?
04:08He's loved me since we were pups.
04:11But I chose you.
04:12Even now, she was lying.
04:13I had no words left.
04:15Seraphina thought I was sulking.
04:17She sneered.
04:18I was going to visit your mother.
04:19But with this attitude, I'm not going.
04:22She slammed the card onto the floor again.
04:24Her footsteps faded.
04:25I crouched down, picked up the card, put it in my pocket.
04:29Then I grabbed my bag from behind the couch, followed her trail down the stairs.
04:33Dusk was falling.
04:34She climbed into Damon's sports car.
04:36The engine roared.
04:37I walked the opposite direction.
04:39Slow and steady.
04:41If Seraphina had looked closer, she'd have seen the apartment was already empty.
04:45Nothing of mine remained.
04:48Seven days of mourning.
04:50Time for mother's funeral.
04:51Only a few relatives came.
04:53The ones who'd watched me grow.
04:55Who truly cared.
04:56They looked behind me, confused.
04:59Something this important.
05:00Where's your girlfriend?
05:01Mother lived poor her whole life.
05:03These people were real.
05:05I tried to say we broke.
05:06The words stuck in my throat.
05:08Uncle slammed his hand on his knee.
05:10Your mom gave Seraphina's father all her savings.
05:14Just to pay off gambling debts.
05:16To free her from suffering.
05:18And your savings.
05:19You gave it to Seraphina for that car accident.
05:21Your mom was so stressed she worked herself sick.
05:24Trying to save money for you.
05:25Then she ended it so you'd have something left.
05:28And Seraphina couldn't even come to the funeral.
05:30I hung my head.
05:32Shame burned through me.
05:33How could I tell them?
05:34It was all lies.
05:36Seraphina was the Alpha's daughter.
05:38Her tests drained me and mother dry.
05:41Mother worked until her body broke.
05:42All because of false debts.
05:44She suicided with Sliver to leave me money.
05:47For a life with Seraphina.
05:48She died not knowing.
05:50It was never necessary.
05:52Seraphina was rich.
05:53So rich.
05:54Every hardship we faced was just a test wrapped in love.
06:01I looked at Uncle's aged face.
06:03I changed my answer.
06:05Seraphina's here.
06:06She's coming from another state.
06:08Probably got held up on the road.
06:10I'll call her.
06:10I stepped into a corner.
06:12Dialed her number.
06:13I just wanted her at the funeral.
06:15To comfort Uncle.
06:16The call connected.
06:18I whispered into the phone.
06:19Seraphina, can you come?
06:21My mom.
06:22She...
06:22I said I'm not visiting her.
06:24She cut me off, irritated.
06:26And I'm working right now.
06:27Damon's my friend, but I want to pay him back quickly.
06:30You'd only take a loan for your mom.
06:32Not for me.
06:33So I had to handle it myself.
06:35She hung up.
06:36I called again.
06:37The line went dead.
06:38Two notifications.
06:39A video.
06:42Seraphina was in the biggest club in Texas.
06:44Putting a birthday crown on Damon's head.
06:47Today, the most important thing is our birthday boy, Damon.
06:50Her voice was soft.
06:51No one interrupts today.
06:53Balloons.
06:54Champagne.
06:55Cake.
06:55Laughter.
06:56It was the opposite of Mother's quiet funeral.
06:59Gotta keep him waiting.
07:00Just a broke wolf.
07:01He dares get mad at our Alpha's daughter?
07:04Right?
07:05Like his Omega mom deserves Princess Seraphina's care.
07:08Does she even have that blessing?
07:09The video cut off.
07:10My chest caved in.
07:12I couldn't breathe.
07:13The funeral ended.
07:15Seraphina never came.
07:16I kept calling, hoping she'd at least apologize to Uncle over the phone.
07:20Uncle pressed my hand down.
07:22Turned off the screen.
07:24Stop.
07:24I can guess.
07:26You two broke.
07:27He patted my shoulder.
07:28It's fate.
07:29Not your fault.
07:30Just live well, so your mother rests easy.
07:33Simple comfort.
07:35But it shattered me.
07:36I buried my face in his shoulder and sobbed.
07:39Then my phone rang.
07:40Seraphina.
07:41Finally calling back.
07:42But it was too late.
07:44I meant to decline.
07:45My fingers slipped.
07:46I answered.
07:47Her voice was tight.
07:48What happened?
07:49Is something wrong with your mom?
07:51It's handled.
07:52Handled?
07:52Then why did you call so many times?
07:55Her tone flared with anger.
07:56Were you trying to make me worry?
07:58You're different now.
08:00Not like before.
08:01I'm starting to wonder if you've...
08:03Sorry.
08:04I cut her off quietly.
08:05It won't happen again.
08:08After that call, Seraphina didn't contact me.
08:11I knew what she was doing, waiting for me to apologize first.
08:14This time, I wouldn't.
08:15Once I finished mother's funeral, I messaged the landlord, terminating the lease.
08:19Then I went back to the apartment one last time, to pack Seraphina's things.
08:22But the familiar room hit me.
08:24Memories crashed over me like a wave.
08:26The couch, scratched by the previous tenant's cat.
08:28Seraphina once sat there with me, sharing a single can of soda.
08:32She'd said laughing,
08:33I'm not helping you save money.
08:35I'm doing it for my health.
08:37The kitchen with its second-hand hot plate.
08:39Seraphina used to flinch when oil splattered.
08:41Later, she could chop, fry, and stew like a pro.
08:44She'd said, proud and excited.
08:46I practiced at home for so long.
08:48I'd been lost in her smile.
08:50Didn't notice the words.
08:51Didn't realize her home was the estate.
08:53With a five-star chef teaching her.
08:55If I'd known from the start she was the Alpha Cain's daughter, we'd never have had a future.
08:58I wouldn't allow such an unequal bond happen, but I learned the truth two years in.
09:02After I'd already fallen.
09:04Too much joy.
09:04I couldn't let go.
09:05The cracked walls.
09:07The peeling door.
09:08The bathroom too narrow to stretch in.
09:10It all showed her sacrifice.
09:11Her compromise.
09:12She bent so much for me in ways I didn't see.
09:14I worked so hard to make it worth it.
09:16To honor what we gave each other.
09:17But the tests never stopped.
09:19An endless cycle.
09:20Like Pandora's box opened.
09:22Doubt and fear flooded the bond.
09:24Can love tested by lies still be called love?
09:26I was tired.
09:27Too scared to love again.
09:30A ripping sound.
09:32Like something tore in my chest.
09:33I zipped the suitcase shut.
09:35All our past sealed inside.
09:36The lock turned.
09:37Seraphina opened the door.
09:38She saw the empty room.
09:40The bag in my hand.
09:41Her voice rose.
09:42Elias, what is-
09:43I looked at her evenly.
09:44I'm going back to my hometown.
09:46Your hometown?
09:46Why didn't you discuss this with me?
09:50Why did you pack my things too?
09:52I agreed to live in this dump.
09:55That was already a huge compromise.
09:57I'm not following you to your poor hometown.
10:00I nodded.
10:01I'm going alone.
10:02Seraphina's fury spiked.
10:03Because of what happened?
10:05You're kicking me out?
10:07You've become completely unreasonable.
10:09You know he's rich.
10:11He's been chasing me.
10:12But I chose you.
10:13And this is how you treat me?
10:15I met her eyes.
10:15Not a trace of guilt in them.
10:17Maybe she'd lied so long she believed it herself.
10:19But Seraphina, I know he's rich.
10:21I know you're rich too.
10:22I smiled.
10:23Bitter and mocking.
10:23I stayed silent.
10:24Her rage built in my silence.
10:26I was so wrong about you.
10:28She turned and shouted down at Damon.
10:29Take me home!
10:30Since someone doesn't appreciate me living poor with him,
10:33I'll go back where I belong.
10:34To your lakeside estate.
10:36My expression was blank.
10:37My voice flat.
10:38I'll carry your bag down.
10:42Seraphina was even angrier.
10:44She didn't speak.
10:45Just stomped down the stairs.
10:46I followed.
10:48Numb.
10:48Dragging the suitcase.
10:50For a moment,
10:51I saw myself two years ago.
10:53Smiling.
10:54Pulling a suitcase upstairs.
10:56Seraphina bouncing behind me.
10:58Curious and happy.
11:00That version of me had said,
11:02guilty but sincere.
11:03We'll rent cheap for now.
11:06Once I save the deposit,
11:08I'll buy us a place with an elevator.
11:10Back then,
11:10I must have looked like a fool to her.
11:12I laughed silently,
11:14passing that ghost on the stairs.
11:15One going up,
11:17one going down.
11:18We were always heading different directions.
11:20I set the suitcase by Damon's car.
11:24She's yours now.
11:25I caught the contempt in his eyes.
11:27He looked at the bag like it was dirty,
11:29covered in dust from the cheap stairwell.
11:31Or maybe he was looking at me that way.
11:33The poor wolf from another world.
11:35It didn't matter anymore.
11:37This was probably the last time I'd see them.
11:39I turned to Seraphina.
11:41Smiled faintly.
11:42Goodbye.
11:43Not see you later.
11:45Goodbye.
11:46Forever.
11:47Wait.
11:48Damon, stop me.
11:53If you're cutting ties,
11:55cut them clean.
11:55The money you spent on Seraphina,
11:57I'm paying it back.
11:58After this,
11:59you owe each other nothing.
12:01Disdain dripping from his face.
12:03Tossed it carelessly.
12:05It landed on a glob of spit on the pavement.
12:08This kind of area.
12:09Hygiene was never great.
12:10I crouched slowly.
12:12Turned over the phrase in my mind.
12:14Owe each other nothing.
12:16Nothing.
12:16That moment,
12:17I understood the feeling stuck in my chest.
12:20Resentment.
12:21If this bond had been a game from the start,
12:23pure cruelty,
12:24I could hate cleanly.
12:26But Seraphina's lies held real feeling.
12:29That truth trapped me.
12:31Made me lose mother.
12:32I peeled the card off the ground.
12:34Wiped it with tissue.
12:35Tucked it in my pocket.
12:37Damon crowed.
12:38See, Seraphina?
12:40He still cares about the money he spent on you.
12:42Even when I threw it in filth,
12:43he picked it up.
12:45No dignity.
12:46No pride.
12:47I didn't react.
12:49I turned and walked away.
12:50They didn't know.
12:51The money on that card was clean.
12:53It was the sincere savings of a devoted son and his mother.
12:57Meant to help Seraphina with real dads.
12:59Their genuine love.
13:01I disappeared around the corner.
13:02Seraphina shouted Damon hard.
13:04Don't talk about him like that!
13:07I went home.
13:08Paid off the loan immediately.
13:10Donated the rest to the orphanage where...
13:13Applied for a teaching post in the remote territories.
13:16That money,
13:17holding our family's love,
13:19should go where it's needed.
13:20I needed to do something meaningful.
13:22The application was approved.
13:23I packed my bag.
13:24Met Seraphina at the door.
13:26Elias,
13:27where are you going?
13:28I startled.
13:29Then I remembered.
13:30I'd given my suitcase to the neighbor's kid.
13:32I was holding two plastic bags.
13:35Taking out the trash.
13:36I forced a smile.
13:37Didn't want to talk.
13:38Okay.
13:39Come back quickly.
13:41Seraphina looked serious.
13:42I need to talk to you.
13:43I nodded.
13:44Walked past her without expression.
13:46Got in the taxi waiting at the corner.
13:48The airport.
13:49Fast as you can.
13:50At the gate,
13:51I exhaled in relief.
13:53About to power off my phone.
13:55Seraphina's messages flooded in.
13:56Then a call.
13:57I accidentally played a voice message.
13:59It auto-played the rest.
14:00Where are you?
14:01Why is all the furniture covered in dust sheets?
14:04What's the white paper on the door?
14:06They're saying your family just had a funeral.
14:08Who...
14:08Who died?
14:09The voice cracked.
14:10Panic rising.
14:11How is mom?
14:12What happened?
14:13Elias,
14:14answer your phone.
14:15The phone buzzed non-stop.
14:17Message after message.
14:19Calls dropping and redialing.
14:21I could feel her desperation through the screen.
14:23Just like the day of mother's funeral.
14:25When I'd wanted her there.
14:26Fate is fair sometimes.
14:27I held down the power button.
14:29The screen went black with a faint vibration.
14:31Seraphina,
14:32we have no future.
14:33Whether you want to confess
14:34or finally care about mother's health,
14:36it's too late.
14:37Some things once missed are gone forever.
14:41The plane climbed into the sky.
14:43Our past dissolved in the clouds.
14:45I left decisively,
14:46but my heart wouldn't settle.
14:48Like a rope threaded through my chest.
14:50Someone pulled it now and then.
14:52Sharp little tugs of pain.
14:53Memories invaded without warning.
14:56Tormenting me.
14:56Every moment with Seraphina felt more absurd
14:58the more I remembered.
14:59I thought giving everything proved my love.
15:02Compared to her endless lies,
15:04I looked like a fool.
15:05I despised myself.
15:07Failed mother.
15:08The two feelings tore me apart.
15:10I wanted to die.
15:11But thank the moon.
15:13In this remote village,
15:14there were innocent pups.
15:15They swarmed me.
15:17Chattering.
15:18Fighting to carry my water jug.
15:20Showing me their pet.
15:21I forced my mind blank.
15:23Focused on lesson plans.
15:25Adapting teaching methods.
15:26My insomnia healed.
15:28My mind calmed.
15:29Memories of Seraphina faded.
15:31A month later,
15:31I turned and saw her.
15:33I realized I hadn't thought of her in weeks.
15:35But Seraphina didn't look well.
15:36She wore a tailored dress again.
15:38High heels with crystal details.
15:40She looked expensive.
15:42But her hair was wild.
15:43Eyes bloodshot.
15:44Even her makeup was smudged.
15:46When she saw me,
15:47tears fell.
15:48Her voice shook.
15:49Elias.
15:50I finally found you.
15:52I'm sorry.
15:53I didn't mean to lie.
15:54I didn't mean to miss your mother's funeral.
15:56That day,
15:57Damon turned off my phone without telling me.
15:59Hearing her explain,
16:00I thought I'd feel sad.
16:01Or hate.
16:02Blame.
16:03Grief.
16:03Rage.
16:04Nothing.
16:05She stood in front of me.
16:06I felt nothing.
16:07Like she was a stranger.
16:08My expression was calm.
16:10I raised a finger to my lips.
16:13Whispered.
16:14The pups are napping.
16:18Seraphina looked at Elias' blank face.
16:20Her heart clenched.
16:21She felt suspended in midair.
16:23Surrounded by nameless panic.
16:25She remembered a month ago.
16:26After failing to reach Elias,
16:28she'd rushed to the hospital.
16:30They told her his mother had died.
16:31Suicide.
16:32Seraphina froze.
16:33Couldn't process it.
16:34The healer said the surgery would cure her.
16:36Why did she suicide?
16:37Why didn't Elias tell her?
16:39Why did he disappear without a word?
16:40Did he blame her?
16:42Too many questions.
16:43No answers.
16:43A knot of pressure built in her chest
16:45needed release.
17:15I asked you to track Elias.
17:17Even now you're slandering him?
17:20Slander?
17:24That broke wolf is cunning and manipulative.
17:26He doesn't deserve you.
17:27Stop being delusional.
17:29His words were vicious.
17:30His handsome face twisted with jealousy.
17:33Seraphina finally saw it.
17:34To Damon, Elias was trash.
17:36He'd always looked down on him.
17:38Never respected him.
17:39So when she'd wanted to complete the bond,
17:41Damon told her to wait.
17:42When Elias' mother got sick,
17:44Damon suggested the fake debt test.
17:46After calming down,
17:47she found Elias' uncle.
17:48Wanted information.
17:50Now you show up?
17:51Too late!
17:51Seeing the broken walls
17:53and shabby house,
17:54Seraphina.
17:55I'm actually the Alpha Cain's daughter.
17:56I'm rich.
17:57Just tell me where Elias is.
17:59I'll buy you a house.
18:01House.
18:01We family won't sell loyalty for money.
18:03And we hate being lied to.
18:05The door slammed in her face.
18:07That moment she realized
18:08money isn't everything.
18:09That truth hit harder
18:10when she found Elias' cousin.
18:12Offered him 50 million dollars.
18:14Sorry, Miss Seraphina.
18:15That's a big money.
18:16But if spending them brings guilt,
18:18not joy,
18:18I'd rather not take them.
18:20He left.
18:21No hesitation.
18:23Seraphina sat frozen on the couch.
18:24Regret finally wrapped around her heart.
18:27Elias and his family were honest wolves.
18:29It was obvious from one glance.
18:30Why did she test him so many times?
18:34Just then,
18:35Damon burst in.
18:36Elias donated all the money on that card.
18:38Do you think he's suicide too?
18:40Like his mother?
18:41Broke wolves value money over life.
18:43If he's giving it all to charity,
18:45he must be planning to end it.
18:46Do something good before death.
18:49Stop thinking about him.
18:51You're from different worlds.
18:54Forget him.
18:55Be with me.
19:25Seraphina looked into those eyes.
19:26Like a war drum.
19:27Why did you do this?
19:30He knows my identity.
19:32Because of you!
19:35I was ready to tell him the truth.
19:38But now,
19:39he'll think I was mocking him.
19:43She remembered that day.
19:45Elias had called so many times.
19:47Through the phone,
19:47she'd heard funeral music.
19:49Didn't pay attention.
19:50That day,
19:50she missed his mother's funeral
19:51to celebrate someone else's birthday.
19:54Regret crushed her.
19:55If only time could reverse.
19:56Stop being naive.
19:57He's known for a year.
19:59The day I invited you to the Rosewood Club,
20:02he was working as a server.
20:04Saw you at the door.
20:06You did it on purpose?
20:08Turns out Elias is cunning.
20:09After that day,
20:10he treated you even better,
20:11didn't he?
20:12He just didn't expect his mom to die
20:14before he could lock down the bond
20:16to a rich alpha-san.
20:17So now,
20:18he's probably hurt.
20:19Or blaming you for confessing too late.
20:21That's why he's playing hard to get.
20:22Shut up!
20:23He's not like that!
20:24He's a thousand times better than you!
20:26Serafina slapped him again.
20:28Tears streamed down her face.
20:29She remembered.
20:30Damon gave her all his savings.
20:32That's why Elias worked three jobs.
20:33That's why Damon arranged for him
20:35to see her at the club.
20:36And when his mother was dying,
20:37she'd fake that debt.
20:38Serafina's face burned.
20:40Like she'd been slapped.
20:41So shameful.
20:42So humiliating.
20:43What did Elias thought?
20:45Watching her lie while he knew the truth?
20:47He must have been devastated.
20:48That's why he got angry for the first time.
20:50Used harsh words.
20:51She'd been offended,
20:52She took all the healing funds in spite.
20:55She didn't know that Elias,
20:56who knew everything,
20:57was suffering more than her.
20:58Serafina collapsed to the floor,
20:59sobbing.
21:00I have to find him.
21:01I have to apologize in person.
21:05But when she finally found Elias,
21:06saw his indifferent eyes,
21:08her heart seized.
21:10Irrational fear.
21:11I bought our old house.
21:13It has our memories.
21:14I don't want another tenant ruining them.
21:16Come back with me.
21:17Let's complete the bond.
21:19I don't need a house,
21:20a car,
21:21mating ceremony.
21:21Just you.
21:25Elias,
21:26I can't lose you.
21:27She grabbed his sleeve,
21:28eyes desperate,
21:29almost begging.
21:30I looked at Serafina.
21:31Everything felt like mockery.
21:33Once,
21:34I dreamed of mating with her.
21:35A ceremony.
21:36A shared life through all seasons.
21:38But it came after I'd run out of patience.
21:40After my heart died.
21:41Too late.
21:42Broken mirrors don't mend.
21:44Spilled water doesn't return.
21:45We can't go back.
21:46A wolf who escaped a long,
21:48dark road and finally saw light
21:50doesn't turn around.
21:51I pulled my arm free.
21:53Polite.
21:53Detached.
21:55Let's talk outside.
21:56Don't wake the students.
21:58Leave.
22:00We have no future.
22:01No!
22:02We can go back to how we were!
22:04I won't lie anymore.
22:07I'll listen to everything you say.
22:11And
22:13Mom always wanted us to be happy,
22:15didn't she?
22:16My calm shattered.
22:17I pressed my lips together.
22:18My eyes went cold.
22:20Do you know why my mother took the silver?
22:24That day,
22:25you transferred all the money away.
22:26I knew you were lying.
22:27I was devastated.
22:28Punched the wall.
22:29Bloodied my hand.
22:30That same day,
22:31mother saw my injuries.
22:32While I was out getting the loan,
22:34she chose to end it.
22:36She thought she was the burden.
22:37That she made me suffer.
22:39I'll never forgive myself.
22:40And I can't be with you anymore.
22:42You indirectly caused this.
22:44Do you understand?
22:45I didn't know.
22:47I swear I didn't mean it.
22:50Damon was manipulating me.
22:52He said you didn't care.
22:54I got confused.
22:56I wanted you to apologize.
22:59I'm sorry, Elias.
23:00I'm sorry.
23:02Please.
23:03Let me make it up to you.
23:07Serafina had never been this low.
23:09The proud Alpha's daughter.
23:10When had she ever bowed?
23:11Now she clutched my pants.
23:13Voice shaking.
23:13Nearly prostrate.
23:15Her eyes held endless pleading.
23:17Real guilt.
23:18Crouched down.
23:18Spoke again.
23:19I took a long breath.
23:20You know what?
23:21After mom gave all her savings
23:23to your fake gambling debt father,
23:25she felt unsafe.
23:26So when I put everything
23:28into your fake car accident,
23:29she secretly took hard labor jobs back home.
23:33The kind even young wolves quit after a day.
23:35The healer said overwork
23:37likely caused her sickness.
23:39I don't want to blame you,
23:41but all of this stems from your lies.
23:44I'm sorry.
23:47I'm sorry.
23:48I blinked away the sting.
23:50My voice was rough.
23:51I know.
23:52Serafina,
23:53I don't want to hate you.
23:54I want to call this fate.
23:56But can you please stop appearing in front of me?
23:59Every time I see you,
24:00I can't help the sadness.
24:01Can't help remembering mother.
24:03Can't escape the guilt.
24:04It hurts too much.
24:05This time,
24:06she didn't speak.
24:07I stepped back.
24:08My pants slipped from her hands.
24:10I turned,
24:11walked toward that classroom
24:12full of hope.
24:13That's where my redemption was
24:14and the ones who needed saving.
24:16Serafina's figure fell behind me.
24:18Maybe my grief affected the sky.
24:19Rain started to fall.
24:21The curious student said later,
24:23that person on the field
24:23knelt in the rain for hours.
24:25Head bowed the whole time,
24:27but none of it concerned me anymore.
24:28Her small regret
24:29couldn't turn back time,
24:30couldn't fix anything.
24:33Not long after,
24:34the school received
24:35a huge anonymous donation.
24:37New buildings,
24:38dorms,
24:39teacher housing,
24:40all top materials.
24:41Every month,
24:42I got a letter from Texas.
24:43Cold winds come,
24:44wishing you safe autumn.
24:45Year's end brings snow,
24:47wishing you warm winter.
24:48Flowers bloom in spring,
24:50don't forget to enjoy them.
24:51Every letter ended with,
24:52I'm sorry.
24:53Meanwhile,
24:53the news showed,
24:54constant reports,
24:55the Southern pack
24:56holding charity events.
24:57Mom,
24:58I've decided to spend my life here.
25:00I hope you don't blame me
25:01for not taking the traditional path.
25:04I hope the changes in me
25:06and Serafina bring you happy.
25:08We'll meet again then.
