πŸ’—He And Him The Merman Prince's Forbidden Bride Full Engsub
Transcript
00:01At midnight, my soul floated out of the basement.
00:05My bedroom door was shoved open.
00:06My brother Scott barged in, scoffing when he didn't see me.
00:11Aren't you a little old to be playing hide and sneak and throwing tantrums?
00:15Normally, I would have argued back.
00:17But this time, I just floated beside him, unable to make a sound.
00:21Scott called my phone.
00:22It went unanswered.
00:25He casually flipped through the journal on my desk.
00:28There was only one thing written inside, 99, the number of times they had let me down over the beers.
00:34Scott didn't get it.
00:35He frowned, tossed the journal onto the floor, and left a voicemail.
00:39Stop with the stupid games.
00:42Miranda wants your homemade cookies, so get back here and make them for her.
00:45It's her graduation day.
00:47Don't you dare ruin it!
00:50Get home within the hour, and I'll forgive you.
00:52Scott pocketed his phone and returned to the living room.
00:55And Chelsea's not in her room, and she's not answering her phone.
00:59She always does this.
01:01We've spoiled her.
01:02No one contacted her this time.
01:06Let's teach her a lesson.
01:08She can cool off on her own, and she'll come crawling back tomorrow.
01:13Miranda drifted over, her face a mask of concern.
01:17Dad, don't say that.
01:19What if something really happened to Chelsea?
01:22Maybe I should text her.
01:24You know Chelsea and I are so close.
01:26She lowered her eaves.
01:28I watched as she pulled out her phone, her slender fingers tapping on the screen.
01:33Hope you enjoyed getting marked up by those rogues.
01:36Who are you screwing now?
01:37The party was a blast, by the way.
01:39Thanks for not showing up.
01:41It would be so much better if you'd just drop dead.
01:44After sending it, she deleted the message and typed a new one.
01:47Sister, are you okay?
01:49We're all so worried about you.
01:51Rawls, you ride it with you.
01:52If you're mad at us, just take it out on me.
01:54Please, just come home.
01:56She held the phone up for everyone to see.
01:58What a perfect portrait of a caring, considerate sister.
02:02Mom pulled her into a hug,
02:04her voice dripping with sympathy.
02:06You're always so kind, Miranda.
02:08This has nothing to do with you.
02:11Chelsea is just being immature.
02:13Immature?
02:14A bitter laugh escaped my ghostly form,
02:17though no one could hear it.
02:18In their eyes, it was always Miranda.
02:20Who'd even remember today was my Distinguished Service Award,
02:23only given once every two years?
02:25Knowing they'd all celebrate her graduation,
02:27I told them not to come to my ceremony.
02:30I never tried to compete with Miranda for their affection,
02:33but just as I was about to leave for the ceremony,
02:36the front door crashed open.
02:38Three rogue wolves, they moved fast.
02:41Get your hands off me!
02:42One already had my wrist locked behind my back.
02:45It kicked, connected with someone's shin.
02:47He swore and shoved me into the wall.
02:50My shoulder hit the doorframe.
02:52He dragged me to the basement.
02:54I just got a key to our house!
02:56One of the men dangled a keychain in front of me.
02:58It was Miranda's.
02:59Your precious little sister handed it over.
03:01Said you're expendable.
03:04Since mom and dad only care about her anyway.
03:07The little silver keychain she'd had since she was 12.
03:10I'd recognize it anywhere.
03:12My blood ran cold.
03:17Bitch!
03:18Liar!
03:19Miranda would never...
03:22Slamming me against the concrete wall.
03:25Forearm pressed to my throat.
03:26Don't bother, struggling.
03:29You're not leaving this basement today.
03:31I won't tell anyone, I promise.
03:33Please, just don't kill me.
03:34In the end, they ignored my pleas, pinned me down, violated me, and bit my necklock, taking countless photos amidst
03:43their foul taunts.
03:44I fought all my life, and I was struggling.
03:47My head slammed in the corner of the table.
03:49My love gushed out instantly.
03:51Terrified.
03:52I fled.
03:52I summoned the last of my strength, dragging myself across the floor to my phone, and try to call...
03:58Mom.
03:59Every werewolf senses mortal danger in family through the pack bond, yet they all thought I was just seeking attention.
04:06Not only did they decline my calls, but they even sent me a message.
04:12Faking suffocation again?
04:13Drop the act.
04:15Your father and I don't have time for your drama.
04:17We've already severed our pack link to you.
04:21Only my mate, Ryan, picked up.
04:23Help me.
04:24Ryan, I'm dying.
04:28Chelsea, cut the drama.
04:30This is Miranda's big day.
04:32There's a limit to your attention-seeking.
04:35I already told you I'd make it up to you with a graduation present.
04:38But, Ryan, I was already dying.
04:39A bitter smile touched my lips.
04:42Too bad.
04:43You'll never get the chance to make it up to me.
04:45Within 24 hours, the stench of decay will start to drift from the basement no one ever enters.
04:51Miranda always said she wished I were dead, so no one would compete with her for your love.
04:56Now, her wish has come true.
04:58My spirit was trapped in the living room, forced to watch their cozy family scene.
05:03My father, usually an early sleeper, stayed up, sitting with Miranda as she opened graduation gifts.
05:09My mother was picking out stunning dresses online, promising a whole new wardrobe for Miranda's trip.
05:16Mom, I already have so many clothes.
05:18My closet is full.
05:20Then we'll put them in Chelsea's room.
05:23She's always so focused on her duties.
05:25She never buys new clothes anyway.
05:28She doesn't need the closet space.
05:30Is that okay?
05:32Chelsea will be upset.
05:34Miranda, you don't have to be so timmed.
05:36This is something Chelsea should do for you as her older sister.
05:40Scott sat nearby, diligently shelling pistachios for Miranda.
05:44I couldn't say a word, just watching the warm scene unfold.
05:47Turns out, a spirit can cry.
05:49The warmth was theirs.
05:50The loneliness was mine.
05:52But Chelsea's still not back.
05:54And she's not replying to my texts.
05:57Is she still mad at us?
05:59I feel so terrible with her not here.
06:01At the sound of Miranda's voice, the three of them finally shifted their attention from her and remembered me.
06:08Dad frowned instinctively.
06:11Don't mind her.
06:13She just wants us to revolve around her.
06:16When will she ever grow up?
06:18Mom's face showed a flicker of impatience.
06:21It's just a distinguished service award.
06:23They give one out every two years.
06:25Do you know Miranda's college graduation only happens once?
06:29Why must she throw a tantrum on a day like this?
06:34Mom, don't say that.
06:35Chelsea will be sad if she hears you.
06:37She had to practically beg for that award.
06:42Oh, did I just say that out loud?
06:46I knew Miranda was never innocent.
06:49Growing up, my grades were always better than hers.
06:52Yet even with Mom, Dad and Scott wrapped around her finger.
06:55Miranda would still make up lies about me plagiarizing.
06:58Dad never questioned it.
07:00He just beat me.
07:01I'd long told myself I'd find my mate someday.
07:04Finally know what it felt like to be someone's first choice.
07:07Just once.
07:08Two years with Ryan, and his heart still drifted to Miranda.
07:12I should have been sad.
07:13Maybe I was just numb.
07:15My soul was too numb to feel pain.
07:17The housekeeper brought out a platter of desserts.
07:20All of them Miranda's favorites.
07:21Naturally, they stopped talking about me.
07:24Miranda, college must have been tough.
07:27Here, eat more of your favorites.
07:29She smiled brightly, boasting about he achievements in college.
07:32She'd already landed an internship at a top investment bank on Wall Street.
07:37Her future was boundless.
07:38Dad and Scott listened, showering her with praise.
07:41And I just floated silently to the side.
07:44The clock struck one in the morning.
07:45I still hadn't appeared.
07:47Caught.
07:48Save this for Chelsea.
07:49She can have it when she's done with her tantrum and comes back.
07:52Let's not have her think we only favor Miranda.
07:54See?
07:55We saved some for her.
07:56I stared at the tart slices, feeling nothing.
07:59Scott thought for a moment, then reached for the plate.
08:02Suddenly, Miranda shrieked and snapped the paper back from where it rested near a gift.
08:06Mom!
08:07It hurts!
08:08This gift, it's silver!
08:11Dad, Mom, and Scott immediately rushed to her side.
08:14Seeing the red burn like mark on Miranda's palm, they panicked.
08:18We weren't around any humans at the party?
08:21Which werewolf would send a gift made of silver?
08:24That gift box, is that Chelsea's?
08:27Mom, please don't blame Chelsea.
08:31The gift was on my bedside table this morning.
08:33I'm just happy she was willing to give me a present.
08:36I knew it.
08:37That's why she's been dragging her feet and not coming home.
08:42She was plotting to hurt Miranda!
08:45How could I have such a vicious sister?
08:46Enough!
08:47Stop arguing and get Miranda to the pack healer!
08:50Dad kicked the gift box.
08:52The one Miranda had stolen from my room and slammed his hand on the table in fury.
08:57We're out of gauze.
08:58I'll get some from the basement.
08:59Miranda's eyes darted around.
09:01She grabbed Scott's arm.
09:02Don't go!
09:03The healer will have gauze.
09:05It hurts so much.
09:06If Scott had taken one step closer to the basement, he would have smelled the overwhelming stench.
09:12But it was not to be.
09:14At Miranda's words, the family hurried away, leaving only my spirit floating in the empty living room.
09:20I wanted to scream that I hadn't done anything, but I could no longer speak.
09:24And I knew that even if I could, they would never believe me.
09:28So be it.
09:29The housekeeper, hearing the commotion, came out to clean up the mess and sighed.
09:34Miss Chelsea, why do you never learn to protect yourself?
09:39My spirit floated back to my room.
09:42Seeing the journal on my desk, a flood of memories washed over me.
09:46When I was 10, our family held the decennial bloodline awakening ceremony.
09:51That day would determine every cub's future status and power within the pack.
09:56Scott was first.
09:57His wolf form was pure black, a symbol of power and future leadership.
10:02Dad looked at him with undisguised pride.
10:05When it was Miranda's turn, her wolf was a rare snow white, possessing a natural aura of peace that calmed
10:11all the pack members around her.
10:14Mom held her, calling her the family's treasure.
10:17Not wanting to disappoint my parents, I stepped onto the awakening platform filled with anticipation.
10:22But when my wolf form appeared, everyone fell silent.
10:26My wolf was just an ordinary gray wolf.
10:29No special abilities, no rare coat color.
10:31So plain that I would be lost in a crowd of pack members.
10:35From that day on, I became the family's common one.
10:38Someone not worth investing resources in.
10:41Even after I achieved the highest academic honors, they still believed bloodline determined everything.
10:46Scott and Miranda enjoyed all the favoritism and resources.
10:50And I, like my wolf's bloodline, was ordinary, expendable.
10:54My spirit followed Miranda to the healer's clinic.
10:57Before long, my mate Ryan burst in.
10:59He rushed straight to Miranda's side, grabbing her hand and anxiously examining the red mark on her palm.
11:05How did this happen?
11:06What did the healer say?
11:07Ryan, don't be like this.
11:10It's not Chelsea's fault.
11:13She probably just wanted to surprise me and forgot for a moment that we werewolves...
11:21Can't touch silver.
11:22The more understanding she acted, the darker Ryan's face grew.
11:26Chelsea?
11:28Where is she hiding now?
11:32Miranda, don't be sad.
11:35I'll make sure to teach her a lesson for you.
11:37We hadn't completed our mate bond, so he couldn't sense my death.
11:41Much less know that I was right beside him, watching him in silence.
11:44After leaving the clinic, Ryan called my phone.
11:47When it went unanswered, he left a message.
11:49Chelsea, how could you be so vicious?
11:51Using silver to harm your own sister?
11:52I always thought you were kind, but you'd do something like this out of jealousy.
11:56I was on my way to give you your award gift.
11:57It's a family heirloom, a pendant to congratulate you.
12:00But now, you don't deserve it.
12:01Consider this your punishment.
12:03You'd better pray Miranda is okay.
12:06Otherwise, consider our mate bond ceremony cancelled!
12:09I listened to his accusations.
12:10My heart too weary to even feel a thing.
12:13I should have known long ago.
12:14We'd fought over Miranda countless times.
12:17During hunting training, he only watched her agile moves.
12:20When I tripped, he just called me clumsy.
12:22At meals, he never recalled I couldn't eat spicy food, yet baked over 20 desserts just to please her.
12:28I argued with him about these things countless times.
12:31You're overthinking it.
12:32I just think of Miranda as a little sister.
12:34His coldness made me feel like a possessive lunatic.
12:37But I loved him deeply.
12:38I thought he was the moon goddess's gift.
12:40Mine alone.
12:41I was wrong.
12:42My parents loved Scott and Miranda for their bloodline.
12:45Why did Ryan love her?
12:46I didn't know.
12:47And now, I'd never have the chance to find out.
12:50Because now, whether I fell or was beaten, I would never feel pain yet.
12:54After midnight, dad, mom, and Scott finally returned home, exhausted.
12:59I floated in a corner of the living room and heard my mother sigh.
13:02It's a shame Ryan's bloodline isn't strong enough for Miranda.
13:05They'd be perfect together.
13:07Look how attentive he was at the clinic.
13:08Yes, Ryan is quite capable.
13:11And I think Miranda likes him, too.
13:12It would be perfect if they were mates.
13:14But these things are guided by the moon goddess.
13:17Don't overthink it.
13:19Ryan's bloodline isn't worthy of our precious white wolf.
13:22It's better to let him be with Chelsea.
13:24Their gray wolf bloodlines are a better match.
13:27Even if he completes the mate bond with Chelsea, he can still dote on Miranda.
13:32Then looked up and noticed the house was dark.
13:35A faint, metallic smell hung in the air.
13:37Looks like the moonstones in the house have run out of energy.
13:40Scott, go to the basement and get a new one.
13:42Scott grunted in agreement and strode toward the basement.
13:45The closer he got, the stronger the metallic smell became.
13:48His wolf instincts made him frown, but he dismissed it as a dead rat in the house.
13:53What's that smell?
13:54Dad and mom followed him toward the basement door.
13:57Scott pushed it open.
13:58A thick, nauseating stench of blood and decay rushed out to meet them.
14:02In the darkness, a body lay in a pool of dried, blackened blood.
14:06Its eyes not fully closed.
14:08Scott stopped dead.
14:11Scott froze.
14:12My name a choked whisper on his lips.
14:14But dad was the first to react.
14:16His stunned expression twisted into a scowl.
14:19Chelsea!
14:20Are you out of your mind?
14:22Have you had enough of this?
14:24Pulling a stunt like this just for attention.
14:26Mom chimed in, her voice sharp.
14:28Get up!
14:29Do you have any idea how disgusting you look?
14:33You'd stoop to playing dead just to steal Miranda's spotlight?
14:36My spirit floated beside them, watching them yell at my cold corpse.
14:40They still didn't believe I was dead.
14:41They thought this was just my latest ploy for sympathy.
14:44Scott finally snapped out of his trance.
14:47He strode forward and kicked my arm impatiently with the toe of his boot.
14:50Stop acting!
14:51Get up!
14:52My body shifted slightly on the floor.
14:54But otherwise, I was still.
14:56That sent him over the edge.
14:57Get up!
14:57Scott bellowed.
14:58And his next kick sent my body rolling over.
15:01The impact revealed the fatal wound on the back of my head.
15:04Along with the countless bite marks scarring my neck.
15:06For the first time, I saw true panic on their faces.
15:09Panic for me.
15:10Her body.
15:11Mom's voice trembled.
15:13She was finally realizing something was terribly wrong.
15:15Why is it so cold?
15:21Dad's expression finally shattered.
15:23A werewolf's body temperature is naturally higher than a human's.
15:27If I were faking it, my body couldn't possibly be this cold.
15:30It's diff.
15:31Drop the block.
15:32Dad said, his voice raw.
15:33We blocked our pack link to Chelsea.
15:36Drop it now.
15:37Let's see if she can fake being alive.
15:41It was the only way to be sure if a werewolf was truly dead.
15:45Dad, Mom, and Scott closed their eyes, concentrating.
15:49Trying to find my faint light.
15:51Concentrating.
15:51Trying to find my faint light within the pack's spiritual bond.
15:56One.
15:56Two.
15:57Three.
15:58Scott's eyes flew open first.
16:00All the color drained from his face.
16:02He staggered back a step.
16:05Dad went rigid, his lips starting to tremble uncontrollably.
16:11Mom's face, a mask of scorn and anger moments before, dissolved into pure terror.
16:17Where my life force should have been, there was only a cold, silent void.
16:21I watched their expressions, wondering if they could feel even a fraction of the pain I had endured.
16:27No.
16:28Impossible.
16:31Chelsea.
16:32While my family home descended into chaos, Ryan was blissfully unaware that I was gone.
16:38He had gone back to the clinic to see Miranda again.
16:41My watching as he gently changed the bandage on her hand.
16:44Does it still hurt?
16:46Ryan's voice was softer than I'd heard it in a long, long time.
16:50Not anymore.
16:52Not when you're here.
16:55Chelsea went too far.
16:57When she finally shows, I swear I'll make her regret it.
17:04Don't blame Chelsea.
17:06She was probably just desperate for everyone's attention.
17:09The sight of her pain only tightened the knot of protectiveness in his chest.
17:13Miranda, you're too kind.
17:15She hurts you like this, and you still defend her.
17:20I just worry about her.
17:26Chelsea has been so lonely her whole life.
17:29She just needs to be loved.
17:32What she needs is a lesson.
17:34Not love.
17:35Selfish people like her only know how to hurt others.
17:41Look at your hand.
17:43Look what she did to you.
17:47Ryan, I'm scared.
17:50What if my sister hates me?
17:52She won't get the chance.
17:55I'll protect you.
17:57I won't let anyone hurt you.
18:00Including Chelsea.
18:06I floated nearby, listening to them paint me as a villain.
18:09They spoke of my viciousness, my selfishness.
18:11But who among them knew I was already a cold corpse?
18:14Ryan.
18:15Miranda said softly.
18:16There's something I've always wanted to tell you.
18:18What is it?
18:19I know you'll...
18:20Differently about me.
18:21She said, her cheeks flushing.
18:23And I...
18:24Ryan was silent for a long moment.
18:26Miranda, we can't.
18:27Why not?
18:28Miranda looked up, her expression wounded.
18:30You don't love Chelsea!
18:31The entire family can see it!
18:33My ghostly form stilled.
18:35I didn't expect his answer.
18:36I don't love her.
18:38Do I?
18:39Ryan hesitated, then shook his head as if to clear it.
18:42Chelsea is my mate.
18:44We're supposed to have our mating ceremony soon.
18:46Then cancel it.
18:47Miranda said urgently.
18:48You said it yourself yesterday, didn't you?
18:51That if anything happened to me, you'd cancel it.
18:53No, Miranda, I can't.
18:55I only said that to teach her a lesson.
18:57Ryan lowered his head, avoiding her gaze.
18:59I've always thought of you as a little sister.
19:01My mate is Chelsea.
19:02It will only ever be Chelsea.
19:05Miranda stared at him in disbelief, fresh tears filling from her eyes.
19:08My spirit hurt his confession, but my heart felt nothing.
19:11Ryan, I'm already dead.
19:13Your love is far too little and much too late.
19:16Ryan, I always knew Chelsea was more likable.
19:19I don't blame you.
19:21It's my fault for not being good enough.
19:23Miranda cried, clinging to him.
19:25Ryan hesitated, not pushing her away.
19:27Just then, his phone rang.
19:29It was Scott.
19:30That must be Chelsea.
19:31She's probably home.
19:32A flicker of relief in his eyes.
19:34Miranda, don't cry.
19:36I'm gonna give her a piece of my mind.
19:37He answered the phone, but it wasn't news of my return.
19:40It was-
19:41Ryan, Chelsea's dead.
19:42What the hell kind of mate were you?
19:44Ryan's eyes widened.
19:45Chelsea's dead?
19:47The phone slipped from his numb fingers and clattered to the floor.
19:50He finally understood.
19:51I wasn't throwing a tantrum.
19:53I wasn't fighting for attention.
19:55I was never coming back.
19:59Ryan sped home.
20:04Arriving to find dad in my room, clutching my journal.
20:07He opened it to the first page, and his hands began to tremble.
20:1117, 10th birthday.
20:12The whole family forgot.
20:14Only the housekeeper remembered and bought me a small cake.
20:1823, Miranda got a paper cut.
20:20Mom and dad stayed up all night with her.
20:22I had a broken bone and had to lie in bed alone.
20:2932, I won first place in the PAX science fair.
20:34But mom and dad went to watch Miranda's hunting trials.
20:3999 entries, from childhood until now.
20:42Every single one was dated.
20:44A detailed account of their neglect.
20:48The three of them huddled around the journal, tears streaming down their faces.
20:5545, at the bloodline awakening ceremony, I became the most common gray wolf.
21:00Dad was so disappointed, he turned and walked away without a single word of comfort.
21:0648, our anniversary.
21:09Ryan spent the day helping Miranda pick out a dress.
21:11Are we still going to have our mating ceremony?
21:14Moon goddess, please show me the way.
21:1852, mom said it would be better if Miranda were their only daughter.
21:22It would be better if Miranda were their only daughter.
21:26Mom, it was my birthday.
21:27The last entry read, once it hits 99, I'm done hoping for their love.
21:31It's probably going to hit 99 tomorrow.
21:33They won't remember to come to my award ceremony.
21:35They only care that it's Miranda's graduation.
21:41What have we done?
21:47Mom slumped to the floor, sobbing hysterically.
21:49Chelsea, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
21:52Scott picked up the journal, his hands shaking as he flipped through the pages.
21:56Every number was a needle piercing his heart.
21:58We owe her so much.
22:00She remembered everything, and we just took it all for granted.
22:04Ryan stood frozen in the doorway, a silent witness to their grief.
22:07He remembered the past two years, how I had so cautiously tried to share my academic achievements with him.
22:13I had craved his attention, but he had always been distracted by something or someone else.
22:17I'll hold a funeral for her.
22:20The grandest funeral the pack has ever seen.
22:23I want the entire pack.
22:25Had lame to know that Chelsea was our most outstanding child.
22:29But it was too late.
22:30An apology can't bring the dead back to life.
22:32I was too tired to care.
22:34A week later, my funeral was held.
22:36All the werewolves who had missed me at the award ceremony came to pay their respect.
22:40They mourned me, calling me the pack's most brilliant researcher.
22:43But my family had never known that part of me.
22:46All they knew was a troublemaker who fought with Miranda for their affection.
22:50Ryan knelt before my grave all night.
22:52Chelsea, I was wrong.
22:53I was so wrong.
22:55I thought I didn't love you, but now I know I'm nothing without you.
22:59Come back, please!
23:01Yell at me!
23:03Hit me!
23:03Just come back!
23:04But I could never go back.
23:06Mom placed a platter of my favorite desserts in front of my headstone.
23:09She had finally remembered that I loved mango tart when I was little.
23:12But she remembered far, far too late.
23:15Dad and Scott knelt beside her, repeating my name like a prayer.
23:18They swore they would spend their lives atoning for their sins.
23:21But I didn't need their atonement anymore.
23:23The funeral was grand.
23:24Only Miranda wasn't there.
23:26She claimed she wasn't feeling well and couldn't come.
23:28In reality, she was at home, celebrating.
23:31Celebrating that there was finally no one left to compete with her love.
23:36While sorting through my belongings, Dad found my moonstone.
23:41If a werewolf dies nearby, a dimmed moonstone will record their final memories.
23:47The realization hit him like a physical blow.
23:50He quickly called Mom and Scott over.
23:52Ryan followed them, a silent shadow.
23:54He said, his voice trembling.
23:57They're saved in here.
24:00We have to see what really happened that day.
24:06They gathered around the stone and placed their hands on it.
24:15It began to glow.
24:18And an image of my final moments flickered to life.
24:22I was at home, getting ready to leave for my award ceremony.
24:30When I heard a noise downstairs, two strange rogues had broken in.
24:38She's here.
24:39Stick to the plan.
24:40One of the men spoke, dangling a keychain with Miranda's signature charm at knit.
24:44You sure no one's going to come looking for her?
24:49Relax.
24:51The whole family's at the little sister's party.
24:53No one gives a damn about this one.
24:55Miranda said if we just rough her up and take a few pictures, remember, don't actually kill her.
25:01Just ruin her reputation.
25:03In the vision, I backed away, my face etched with terror.
25:08Who are you?
25:09Why are you doing this to me?
25:10Don't be scared, little wolf.
25:12It'll be over soon.
