Transcript
00:04I found a woman at my dorst, limbs hacked, tongue torn, tortured to the edge of death.
00:09I washed her clean, and realized she was my daughter.
00:12My cabin sits deep in the woods, hidden from the world.
00:14I am treating a male patient, old and weak with white hair,
00:17who sits on the sofa with his arm bleeding profusively.
00:20I apply herbs on his arm, and then send an energetic wave to him.
00:23The arm immediately stops bleeding, and the woundo magical disappears.
00:27The poison has been cleared, you can go home and take a rest.
00:31Thank you so much.
00:34This is the life I chose peace, healing, far from the bloodshed of my past.
00:38The curtain flutters in the wind, my face darkens as I sense something wrong.
00:42Outside, a bunch of wolves are racing through the woods.
00:46I know that energy, that urgency.
00:48They are mine.
00:49The door of the cabin reads sudden fight, his twenties followed by a bunch of men in lacquers.
00:54The male patient changes his face.
00:55I stand up straight with my back to Asher, and frown.
00:58Asher suddenly drops to one knee, presses one hand to his chest, and bows in reverence.
01:03We need you back, Lycan Queen.
01:05Lylan Queen?
01:07Your Lylan Queen?
01:10Whether they find me in a palace or a cabin in the woods.
01:14Lyman Queen, the border issues are growing worse.
01:16We've faced frequent disturbances lately.
01:18This is uncommon.
01:18Asha, I won't come back.
01:20My entire life has been spent in battle and slaughter.
01:23Now the war is ended.
01:24Peace has returned.
01:25I reveal a happy smile.
01:27My thoughts drift to her, my daughter, my Jessica.
01:30My daughter Jessica is now the Luna of the Ashwood Pack, writing to me each month.
01:35My husband manages the kingdom's affairs.
01:37All I want is to stay here and save more lives as a healer.
01:40Lycan Queen, we really need you this time.
01:43My decision is final.
01:47The sun is about to set.
01:49I must gather herbs before dusk.
01:51Enough said.
01:52I'm leaving now.
01:58The woods are dark and empty at night.
02:00I hold a small box of herbs and walk alone, the path familiar beneath my feet.
02:03Then I hear it, the sound of painful moans mixed with men's laughter.
02:06I stop and frown.
02:08I turn to the direction of the sound.
02:09Four rogues surround a woman in her 20s and look at her with vicious and leaky eyes.
02:13Dressed in rags as a slave, she lies on the ground and looks extremely scared.
02:17She looks like a whole mess.
02:18Her body is full of scars, blood, and wounds.
02:21She looks hangered and scared, indicating she's been through hell.
02:24Her hair is in a mess and sticks to her face.
02:26On her collar bade is a cruel scarlet burn mark in the shape of S, signifying slave.
02:31There's a long, deep, and ugly scar running from her eye down to her throat.
02:35Her wrists and ankles are all shackled.
02:37She looks at the rogues and shovers in fear, but she can only let out mumpers and moans as
02:41she's unable to speak.
02:42The rogues make moves at her with leery eye.
02:45One rogue rips her clothes and exposes part of her breasts.
02:48She lets out a painful and husky moan, with tears in her eyes and keeps shaking her head.
02:53I appear behind them from a distance and see it.
02:56I can't see her face clearly from here, but I see enough.
02:59Don't you dare shake your head, you fucking ugly slave.
03:04You should be thankful that we're willing to take you.
03:08He slams her head on a rock.
03:10There's blood on her forehead.
03:11She loses consciousness after letting out a painful moan.
03:14Another rogue is about to rape her.
03:16I don't hesitate.
03:18I shift into a great white wolf and run in front of her, growling out the rogues.
03:22The rogues change their faces.
03:26Such a large wolf, leave!
03:29The rogues shift to wolves and run away.
03:32I turn to check the woman.
03:33Her face is covered by her hair and blood.
03:35I scan her body and feel great sympathy as I notice her injuries and scars.
03:43What a poor girl.
03:45I can't imagine what you've gone through.
03:47I'll save you now.
03:49At this moment, lightning strikes, illuminating her face.
03:52I see her face clearly.
03:54I fall backward and collapse on the ground.
03:56For a moment I cannot move, cannot breathe.
03:59Then I crawl back to her.
04:02My daughter, Jessica.
04:08My eyes fall on the slave mark on her collarbone.
04:10In great shock and fear, I touch the slave mark with my hand.
04:14A slave mark?
04:17I shake my head in disbelief.
04:20No, that's impossible.
04:22My daughter is the Luna of Ashwood Pack.
04:24She should be wearing a Luna's crown, not a slave mark.
04:27After hesitation, I summon up courage, slowly reach my hand toward her ear, and check the
04:32back of the ear.
04:33I see it the pink heart-shaped birthmark at the back of her ear.
04:36That's my daughter's birthmark.
04:38It's really Jessica.
04:39I remember.
04:40Jessica stands in the middle of the garden and sorts at the herbs.
04:44I see the same pink birthmark at the back of her ear.
04:46I stand behind her and look at her back with a smile.
04:50Jessica turns her head and reveals a smile at me.
04:53Mom.
04:54I smile lovingly at her.
04:56Tears stream down my face.
04:57I hold her in my arms, heart reeked and devastated.
05:01Jessica, my baby.
05:03What happened?
05:04Yesterday, I just got a letter from you.
05:06You told me your husband Nash loves you and treats you well.
05:10But this?
05:12Who did this to you?
05:13I gather an energy ball in one hand and send the energy wave to her body.
05:17Don't worry, mom will save you, I say.
05:20The energy wave disappears as it touches her body.
05:22My face changes and my eyes widen in disbelief.
05:27I look at her and tears well up again.
05:30My daughter, where's your wolf?
05:33Why can't I feel your wolf?
05:35Oh my god, what did the ashwood pack do to you?
05:38I cry in devastation, the sound of my own sobs filling the night.
05:44I hold her in my arms and walk in the dark toward the cabin, my eyes a vengeful and determined.
05:50She lies in my arms unconscious.
05:52The injuries on her body are all treated with herbs, the blood cleaned.
05:56Asher stands outside the cabin.
05:58He steps forward in confusion.
06:00Lion Queen, what happened?
06:02I've changed my mind.
06:03I'm coming back.
06:05His face changes to surprise and confusion.
06:08Jessica lies in the bed, unconscious.
06:10I apply herbs on her carefully, my hands gentle despite the storm raging inside me.
06:15Asher sits beside a desk, watching in silence.
06:18Then suddenly he slams his fist on the desk and rises to his feet in burning anger.
06:23How dare they!
06:25I walk over, sit in front of the desk, and begin to write a letter.
06:30My hand moves steadily, each word a promise.
06:33After finishing it, I put the letter in the envelope and seal it with a Lycan Queen seal.
06:38I give the letter to Ashen with a serious expression.
06:42Asher, I want you to go back to Lycan Palace now.
06:45Deliver this letter to my husband personally as soon as possible,
06:48and find out what exactly happened to my daughter.
06:55Whoever turned my little princess into a wolfless mute slave, I'll make them pay.
06:59Yes, your highness.
07:01But what about you?
07:03I'll stay a few days till Jessica's condition is stable,
07:05and I'll take her back to Lycan Palace myself.
07:09Remember, everything must be done in secret.
07:11Do not alert anyone.
07:13Asher nods firmly, receives the letter, and leaves the cabin.
07:17I watch him go, then turn back to my daughter.
07:19Sleep, my child.
07:21Mom will make this right.
07:23In Ashwood Pack, Nash sits in front of the desk and works.
07:26Then Amelia walks over with a plate of cookies, well-dressed with delicate makeup.
07:30Honey, I made some cookies for you.
07:32Nash holds her in his arms.
07:34Amelia sits on his laps and feeds him.
07:37Nash takes a bite and reveals a satisfied smile.
07:40Thank you, honey.
07:41It tastes good.
07:42That low-clive slave is nothing compared to you.
07:45Speaking of which, have you found Jessica?
07:46She asks, her eyes turning cold.
07:49That bathed slave dares to escape.
07:51Once we find her, I'll teach her a hard lesson.
07:54That's a sure thing, honey.
07:55But it might take some time to find her.
07:58His phone rings.
07:59He takes it from the desk, looks at it, and reveals a vicious smile.
08:02Honey, we found that damn slave.
08:05Amelia exchanges a smile with him.
08:07I carry Jessica, who's still unconscious, in my arms.
08:10In my arms and put her in the back seat of my car carefully.
08:14We're coming home, honey.
08:15I close the car door and get in, sitting at the driver's seat and starting the engine.
08:19I drive along the road, the forest giving way to open highway.
08:23Behind me, my daughter sleeps.
08:25Ahead, home.
08:27On another road, several black cars drive speedily in the highway.
08:31I don't see them yet, but they are coming.
08:34After making a turn, the black cars head straight towards my car.
08:37They stop in front of my car in a line, blocking the road.
08:40My face changes.
08:42I slam the brake.
08:43Nash steps out of the black car in the lead.
08:45Then he turns to face the black car and reaches his hand.
08:48Amelia holds his hand, steps out of the car, and smiles at him.
08:52I see it all through my front window.
08:54From here, they look so intimate, so comfortable in each other's presence.
08:59My hands punch on the steering wheel.
09:01My daughter is the most noble princess of the kingdom.
09:04I think, anger rising in my chest.
09:06How dare you betray her?
09:08Is that why you did those things to her?
09:11Several men in black get out of the black cars and close in on my car in an intimidating way.
09:15I grit my teeth.
09:17I've overused my energy treating my daughter, I realize.
09:20I can't take risk now.
09:21I slam the pedal.
09:23The car speeds up and drives straight at them.
09:25Nash and Amelia immediately dodge to avoid getting hit, both of them irritated.
09:30Nash orders the men in black with a grim face.
09:32My car speeds down the highway.
09:34I push the pedal to the max, make several sharp turns, but they are still close behind.
09:39Then I see it an unfathomable cliff ahead.
09:41My face changes.
09:43The very second before the car will jump into the cliff, I slam the brake.
09:47The car comes to a halt with a screech.
09:49I heave a sigh of relief, unbutton the seatbelt, and get off worriedly.
09:52I open the back door, carry Jessica out of the car, and put her on the ground.
09:57To my surprise, Jessica weakly and gradually opens her eyes.
10:01Her dazed eyes gradually regain focus and become tearful when she recognizes me.
10:05She tries to cry out, but only mumbles and moans come out.
10:08I am both surprised and heart-wrenched.
10:10Tears well up in my eyes.
10:12My daughter, you're awake.
10:15Jessica looks at me, tears oozing out of her eyes.
10:18Yes, it's mom, I say softly, pulling her closer.
10:21Mom is here to protect you.
10:23Sorry, mom is late.
10:24Several cars drive over and block my way.
10:26Nash and Amelia get out of their car and walk toward us with vicious smiles.
10:30Jessica.
10:31Amelia calls out, her voice dripping with mockery.
10:33Can't believe you're still breathing.
10:35What a tough little slave.
10:36I clench my fists, forcing myself to stay calm.
10:40Beside me, Jessica glares at them, her chest heaving heavily.
10:43She is shaking with emotion.
10:45I pat her reassuringly.
10:46Nash turns to me, his eyes cold and dismissive.
10:49Old lady, whoever you are, get out of my way.
10:52You can't afford to mess with the ashwood pack.
10:55He orders the men in black.
10:57The men in black all shift into wolves and rush toward Jessica.
11:00Jessica's face changes.
11:01I don't think.
11:02I step forward, grit my teeth, and shift into a large white wolf.
11:06A wolf tries to attack me with sharp claws.
11:08I dodge swiftly and strike its eye with my claw.
11:11It growls painfully and falls to the ground.
11:13The other tries to attack from another direction.
11:15I turn swiftly and bite its neck hard.
11:17The other wolves keep lunging at me.
11:20I fight with everything I have, but as the battle continues, my strength gradually fades.
11:24I was already drained from healing Jessica.
11:27Then a wolf attacks me from behind and bites my leg.
11:30I growl in agony.
11:31I fall to the ground in front of Jessica, my leg bleeding profusely.
11:35Jessica looks at me, worry and fear in her eyes.
11:37I give her a reassuring look I'm still here, I'm still fighting.
11:40Then Jessica's face suddenly changes.
11:43I follow her gaze and see Nash shifting into a wolf with long brown fur, running straight toward us.
11:48Her eyes widen.
11:50She summons up all her force and jumps in front of me to protect me.
11:53Nash's claw hits Jessica on her chest.
11:55She falls backward into the cliff.
11:57I growl.
11:58A sound so heartbroken it doesn't sound like me.
12:00I don't think.
12:02I follow her.
12:03I leap into the cliff after my daughter.
12:04We fall to the bottom of the steep cliff, both unconscious.
12:07My wolf shifts back to human form.
12:09In human form, I lie motionless, heavily hurt, bleeding.
12:13My Leah walks over into human form.
12:15Nash whiffed at the edge of the bottomless cliff and looked down at us with vicious satisfaction.
12:19They exchange a triumphant smile, then turn and walk away.
12:22After moments, I slowly open my eyes.
12:24I sit up, look around, and see Jessica lying in a pool of blood.
12:27I crawl to her side.
12:28Jessica!
12:28I cry, shaking her gently.
12:29Wake up, please!
12:30No!
12:31She gives no response, no movement, no breath.
12:35I cry in devastation, my screams echoing off the cliff walls.
12:38Seven days later, I sit beside a trash ban on a street, dressed in dirty rags, a mess.
12:44There's dirt all over my face and hair.
12:46One of my legs is bandaged in the simplest way.
12:49I rummage through the trash bin and finally find a piece of sandwich, half eaten.
12:52I stuff it into my mouth and chew calmly.
12:55It doesn't taste like much.
12:57Food hasn't tasted like much since that day.
12:59Several passersby walk towards the trash bin with bags of trash, chatting as they come.
13:03You heard about the news of Lycan Princess's death?
13:05Of course.
13:06Lady Jessica died of illness.
13:08It's been dominating the headlines.
13:09I heard Alpha Nash spared no effort to find a cure, but still failed.
13:13He was so grieved that he can't eat anything now.
13:16He must be heartbroken.
13:18Such a good Alpha and husband.
13:20The second nods.
13:22They throw their trash into the bin and leave.
13:28A good Alpha and husband.
13:31My eyes turn determined and avengeful.
13:33I struggle to get up, my injured legs screaming in protest.
13:37I limp forward, one step at a time.
13:39The Lycan Palace rises before me.
13:41I stand in front of it and look up.
13:43So many years.
13:45So much has changed.
13:46The Lycan Palace.
13:47I'm finally back.
13:48I walk through the corridors I once ruled, past guards who don't recognize me in my ragged state.
13:53Finally, I reach the study.
13:54Loughton sits in front of the desk, my husband, Jessica's father.
13:57I open the door.
13:58Loughton.
13:59My voice catching.
14:00I'm finally back.
14:02He looks at me.
14:03His face hardens for just a moment.
14:05A flicker I almost miss.
14:07Amber.
14:08Then he forces a weird smile.
14:10He exclaims, rising from his chair.
14:12I rush over and hug him tightly, burying my face in his chest.
14:16All the pain, all the horror of the past days.
14:18It all comes pouring out.
14:19I burst out crying like I haven't cried since I was a child.
14:23I still can't believe we lost our precious daughter.
14:27I lean against his chest and cry.
14:30The pent-up emotions finally finding an outlet.
14:33But then I pull back, looking up at him.
14:37Lo, I say.
14:37My voice fierce.
14:39Our daughter didn't die of illness.
14:41It's the Ashwood Pack.
14:42Nash killed her wolf and made her a slave.
14:44Lo, and I'll make him pay.
14:46Loughton's expression stiffens.
14:47Just for a moment.
14:48Then he pats my back in a reassuring way.
14:52Amber.
14:52Our daughter did die of illness.
14:55I know it's really hard to accept.
14:57But we gotta face the reality.
14:59I freeze in his arms.
15:00My face changes.
15:02My eyes turn cold.
15:03Oh, really?
15:04I thrust a dagger into his stomach while we are still embracing.
15:08Lo, and his face changes.
15:09His eyes widen in shock and pain.
15:11I yank out the dagger.
15:13Blood trickles from the corner of his mouth.
15:15He looks at me in disbelief.
15:17Why?
15:18He gasps.
15:19I raise a long brown strand of wolf hair in front of him.
15:22I just found it on the table.
15:24Long and brown hair with Nash's scent.
15:27You met Nash.
15:29Right after I sent you the letter and told you what happened to our daughter!
15:32Loetting covers his wound, panic spreading across his face.
15:37I mentioned in the letter that I would bring Jessica back the day after the full moon night.
15:41The envelope bears a Lycan Queen seal.
15:44Only you can open it.
15:48You leaked the letter to Nash, didn't you?
15:52Loen's panic grows.
15:53I can see it in his eyes, in the way he trembles.
15:56You're my husband.
15:57Jessica's father.
15:58The man we trust the most in the world.
16:01Jessica chose to marry Nash because of your advice.
16:04I've never imagined you would want us dead.
16:07I press the dagger to his throat.
16:09Tell me everything.
16:10Or you're dead meat.
16:12No, Amber, that's not true.
16:14I'm your family.
16:15How could I possibly arm you?
16:17I push the dagger closer to his throat.
16:19The blade pressing against his skin.
16:22Still denying.
16:25We'll soon know what exactly you did behind my back all these years.
16:30Come in!
16:31The door opens.
16:32Asher enters.
16:33He walks toward me and Boaz with full respect.
16:36Your Highness, he says, I've thoroughly investigated the death of Lady Jessica.
16:40Lowell's face darkens.
16:41I turn to Asher, trying hard to stay calm despite the storm inside me.
16:46So tell me exactly, who played what kind of role in my daughter's death?
16:50Asher walks to the desk and waves his hand at the crystal ball resting there.
16:53A vision appears in the crystal ball.
16:55Lowell is writing a letter in front of the desk.
16:57There are many letters on the desk familiar letters.
17:00Letters I thought came from my daughter.
17:02The vision closes in on the letter Lowell is writing.
17:05Dear Mother, I'm so happy to tell you that Nash just threw a big party for me.
17:09My face changes greatly.
17:10So you faked all the letters I thought Jessica gave me?
17:13Why did you do this?
17:14Lowell's face completely darkens.
17:17Asher takes out some letters from his clothes and hands them over to me.
17:20Your Highness, these are recent letters between Lord Lone and Alpha Nash.
17:23You'll know the reason after checking them.
17:26I stare at the letters in Asher's hand grimly, then slowly reach for them.
17:30A vicious glint flashes across Lowell's eyes.
17:32He suddenly lunges toward us to snatch the letters.
17:35As Lowell is about to snatch the letters, energy appears in Asher's hand.
17:40Asher steps forward and gives Lowell a hard punch on his chest.
17:44Lowell falls to the ground, blood spreading from his mouth.
17:47I sneer at Lowell and take the letters from Asher.
17:50I begin to browse them one by one.
17:53As I read, my face becomes more and more grim.
17:56Anger builds inside me.
17:57A fire I can barely contain.
17:59I grit my teeth and clench my fist.
18:02I slam the letters against the table and turn to Lorlan.
18:05I step towards him and look down on him.
18:08My emotions barely leashed.
18:11So you persuaded me to marry Jessica into the Ashwood pack.
18:15You played a perfect husband all these years.
18:18You agreed without hesitation when I told you I wanted a break from Empire Affairs.
18:21You did all of these things for your grand plan!
18:25You betrayed me!
18:26You betrayed the kingdom!
18:28Lowell glares at me with hatred in his eyes.
18:31What do you want?
18:32I'm a member of High Council.
18:33You can't kill me!
18:34I snar.
18:35Then I lean down, force his chin up with the dagger,
18:38and articulate every syllable through gritted teeth.
18:41I don't care.
18:42No, I won't kill you.
18:44Not until I expose what true devils you guys are
18:47and take revenge for my daughter.
18:49And I want you to see with your own eyes
18:51how I'll dash your grand plan to pieces.
18:55Then I'll kill you.
18:57Lowen looks daggers at me.
18:58I stand straight and take out an invitation letter from the pile on the desk.
19:03How sweet of Nash to invite you for the Ashwood banquet next week, I say,
19:07my voice dripping with sarcasm.
19:09Don't worry.
19:10I'll enjoy my time there in your place.
19:13Lowen growls at me, but I ignore him.
19:15I turn to Ash.
19:16Lock him in the dungeon.
19:17Give him a taste of what my daughter went through.
19:21Lowen's face twists in panic.
19:25I walk through the corridors of Ashwood Pack, dressed for the banquet.
19:28The halls are grand, but they feel tainted-tainted by what they've done to my daughter.
19:32In the opposite direction, Amelia walks with her best friend Charlotte.
19:35They don't see me yet.
19:37Charlotte talks to Amelia with a low voice, but my hearing is sharp.
19:40I walk through the corridors of Ashwood Pack, dressed for the banquet.
19:44The halls are grand, but they feel tainted.
19:49Well, she says casually.
19:51She dared to talk back to me when she served me.
19:54I asked some guards to catch her, and I poured a whole kettle of boiling water down her throat.
20:00She couldn't talk anymore.
20:01I clench my fist hard.
20:03My whole body shakes uncontrollably.
20:06Boiling water.
20:07Down her throat.
20:08My daughter.
20:09As Amelia talks, they walk closer to me.
20:12She doesn't notice me yet.
20:13That's the way you treat a rebellious slave, Amelia says.
20:16And both women laugh.
20:18As Amelia talks, they walk closer to me.
20:21I move.
20:22My hand shoots out, grabs her neck, and slams her against the wall.
20:26Amelia's face changes shock, fear, confusion.
20:28I look at her with a deadly glare, all pretense gone.
20:32I grab Amelia's neck so tightly she can't breathe.
20:35She struggles against my grip, her eyes wide with astonishment.
20:39Let me go!
20:40Damn, are you insane?
20:42Shocked.
20:43Charlotte rushes towards me to help her friend.
20:45Hands off my friend, you freak!
20:47I shoot Charlotte a threatening glance and kick her, sending her flying into the wall.
20:52She hits it hard and crumples to the ground.
20:55Get off!
20:56I snap.
20:57None of your business!
20:58Charlotte's face contorts in pain.
21:01She scrambles up, terror in her eyes.
21:03Hang in there, Amelia!
21:04She cries.
21:05I'll get the guards!
21:06Charlotte rushes away.
21:08I turn back to Amelia, who glares at me, her face distorted by pain and lack of air.
21:13Do you know who I am?
21:15She gasps, trying to sound threatening despite her situation.
21:19I'm the new Luna of the Ashwood Pack.
21:22Alpha Nash will announce it at the banquet soon.
21:25He'll announce you as the new Luna this quick?
21:29Yes!
21:30Yes!
21:30You can't afford to mess with me!
21:32Let me go!
21:34She collapses to the ground, panting heavily, gasping for air.
21:38Don't worry.
21:39I won't kill you now.
21:41You don't deserve a quick death.
21:43I turn and walk away, leaving her on the floor.
21:46The guards appear and run to her.
21:48I hear her snapping at them from behind me.
21:51What took you so long?
21:52All useless trash!
21:54I enter the banquet hall.
21:55Guests fill the space.
21:57Nash walks to the front and addresses the guests.
22:00Dear pack members, we hold this pack banquet to announce a big issue.
22:04Our pack can't do without a Luna.
22:06Despite great grief, I announce the new Luna of the pack, Amelia.
22:09The pack members applaud.
22:10From the entrance, I watch as Amelia stands up and walks toward Nash with a practiced smile.
22:15I'm honored, honey.
22:16I step forward.
22:18How dare you announce a new Luna without my permission.
22:21She's a lunatic!
22:23She almost killed me just now!
22:25Causing a mess at the pack banquet is a deadly offense.
22:28She must be crazy.
22:29Right.
22:29We should kick her out.
22:30Amelia catches the eye of the guards and signals them to move.
22:33They crowd toward me, ready to attack.
22:35I don't move.
22:36A magic wave surrounds me, invisible but powerful.
22:39It ripples outward and sends all the guards flying.
22:42The people present are all shocked.
22:44Silence falls over the hall.
22:45Who are you exactly?
22:47Nash glears at me, his composure cracking.
22:49I look at him, then at Amelia, then at the assembled guests.
22:52I walk towards the throne at the far end of the hall.
22:57Then I sit down.
23:00I am Lycan Queen.
23:02The hall falls silent.
23:03Every face turns to me.
23:04Some shocked, some disbelieving, some fearful.
23:07The people present are all's boss up.
23:09Shh!
23:09Nash and Amelia both change their faces.
23:11You say you are Lycan Queen?
23:12But Lycan Queen keeps a low profile and hasn't shown up for years.
23:17Yes.
23:17I heard Lycan Queen now lives in a mountain.
23:19She didn't even show up for her daughter's funeral.
23:21There's no way she'd come to this banquet.
23:23Amelia looks at me and sneers, recovering some of her composure.
23:27That's right!
23:28She can't be our Lycan Queen!
23:30She's just a delusional crazy bitch who broke into the banquet and attacked me!
23:34Now she's sitting on the Queen's throne.
23:36She should be punished!
23:37Before anyone can respond.
23:39That's Asher, the strongest fighter in the Empire!
23:42Shouldn't he be serving in the Lycan Palace?
23:44Why is he here?
23:46Asher walks toward me.
23:48Towards the throne where I sit.
23:50He reaches me, and then suddenly drops to one knee.
23:53He presses one hand to his chest and bows.
23:55The men in black all follow his lead.
23:57They kneel and bow to me.
23:59Your Highness!
24:00The people present are all shocked.
24:02Nash and Amelia both change their faces.
24:04She's really the Lycan Queen!
24:05Your Highness!
24:07They rush to turn toward me, drop to one knee, and bow.
24:10All except Nash and Amelia.
24:12Among the hall, only they two stand.
24:14Grim, nervous, their faces dark.
24:16I scan them, exuding authority and dignity.
24:19Then my gaze settles on Nash and Amelia.
24:21Who gives you the right to not bow in front of me?
24:25Amelia and Nash exchange a look.
24:27Both of them have darkened expressions.
24:30Amelia and Nash both kneel on one knee and bow to me.
24:32Their movements are reluctant, Your Highness.
24:34Forced.
24:35I look down at them.
24:36My eyes filled with resentment and vengeance.
24:38These two, they took everything from my daughter.
24:40From me.
24:41All rise.
24:43The people present all rise.
24:44Nash turns to me and assumes a sad, grieved expression.
24:47A mask he probably wears well.
24:49Your Highness, I sincerely apologize for not recognizing you in the first place.
24:54I've been overwhelmed by the loss of Jessica and I'm not myself.
24:58I look at him and let out a sneer.
25:00The audacity.
25:01The lies.
25:02Grief?
25:04I thought you would be too excited to sleep.
25:06Nash and Amelia both change their faces.
25:08A flicker of panic crosses their features.
25:10The people present exchange glances and begin to gossip.
25:13The entire hall buzz with conversation.
25:16What does Herminus mean?
25:17Didn't Lady Jessica die of illness?
25:19It seems there are more to her death than other murmurs.
25:23Nash steps forward, his expression shifting to one of wounded dignity.
25:27Your Highness, I don't understand what you mean.
25:29I'm Jessica's husband and I love her.
25:30I've done everything I could to save her.
25:32Yes, Your Highness.
25:33I treated Jessica as friend and family.
25:35We all cared about her.
25:36I know it's a hard time, but we gotta face the reality.
25:41Family?
25:42I scan them, refraining my anger with difficulty.
25:45You mean the kind of family that cheated on my daughter, killed her wolf, made her slave
25:49and her in the most brutal way?
25:50The kind of family that poured boiling water down her to throat and made her unable to talk?
25:54I am so angry that I choke emotionally.
25:56My eyes become tearful despite myself.
25:59The people present all change their faces in great shock.
26:02What?
26:03No, that's not family.
26:04That's devils.
26:05You two are the most horrific and ruthless I've ever seen.
26:08Nash and Amelia both panic.
26:09I see it in their eyes.
26:10The fear.
26:11The desperation.
26:12The people present are all dumbfound.
26:14The entire hall erupts in an uproar.
26:17Nash and Amelia exchange a panicked look.
26:20Oh my god.
26:21Is what Lycan Queen said all true?
26:23I hope I heard it wrong.
26:25That is diabolical.
26:26The first guest greets his teeth.
26:28Anger building.
26:29I can't imagine our most beautiful and noble princess would go through this.
26:32If that's the truth, Nash and Amelia deserve the most severe punishment in the world.
26:35Anger builds among the guests.
26:37I see it spreading through the crowd like wildfire.
26:40Nash and Amelia are both nervous and on edge.
26:42Their composure cracking.
26:44Nash grits his teeth and steps forward, trying to regain control.
26:47Your highness, I was far beyond honored to marry the noble Lycan princess.
26:50How could I possibly do any of those brutal things to Jessica?
26:53What you said is all baseless.
26:55That's pure slander.
26:56Yes, your highness.
26:57I dare say Nash and I stand with a clear conscience before Jessica.
27:00I give a cold sneer.
27:02Their denials mean nothing.
27:04I have seen the truth with my own eyes.
27:06Amelia continues, her voice taking on a sharper edge.
27:09And let me remind you, your highness.
27:11We're the ones who kept us company till her last breath, while you're the one who heartlessly
27:15refused to attend Jessica's funeral.
27:16You're in no position to blame us.
27:18The people present begin to gossip again, some nodding uncertainly.
27:21That sounds right.
27:22Honestly, I don't understand why her minus was absent from Jessica's funeral.
27:25You're right.
27:25I wouldn't do that to my daughter.
27:27Your highness, with all due respect, can you enlighten us why you didn't attend Lady Jessica's funeral?
27:32Nash and Amelia exchange a vicious smirk.
27:34They think they've turned the tables.
27:36I snire at them.
27:37Their smugness will be short-lived.
27:39I see you're all curious about it.
27:40The reason why I didn't attend my daughter Jessica's funeral is quite simple.
27:44Jessica is not dead.
27:45Amelia's face contorts.
27:47Before she can stop herself, the words spill out.
27:49That's impossible!
27:50I'm stalling off the cliff with my own eyes!
27:52Nash shoots Amelia a glare so sharp it could kill.
27:54Amelia's eyes widen as she realizes what she's done.
27:57She immediately covers her mouth with her hand.
27:58But it's too late.
27:59The damage is done.
28:00The people present all change their faces.
28:02They turn to Amelia and Nash, their expressions shifting from confusion to horror to fury.
28:06The hall erupts in an uproar.
28:08Falling off the cliff?
28:09You said Lady Jessica died of illness!
28:11Another guest turns to Nash and snaps at him, his face red with rage.
28:14You lie!
28:15So how on earth did Lady Jessica die?
28:16Did you murder her?
28:17Did you really make her a slave and torture her?
28:19Nash and Amelia both turn pale.
28:20They avert their eyes, unable to meet the accusing stairs.
28:23They hurry to defend themselves, their words tumbling out in a rush.
28:25No, that's not true.
28:27Amelia nods herrically.
28:28Your highness, we didn't do any of those horrible things.
28:30That was just a slip of tongue.
28:32You've got to believe us.
28:33I sneer at their pathetic attempts.
28:35Save your disgusting act.
28:37I saw with my own eyes how you hunted my daughter down and tried to kill her.
28:42The day Jessica fell off the cliff, I was there.
28:45Nash and Amelia both change their faces.
28:47The color drains completely from their skin.
28:49They look like ghosts now.
28:51Five years of marriage.
28:52You turned my beloved princess into a wolfless and mute slave.
28:55She escaped from hell, and you still hunted her down to kill her.
28:59You thought she fell off the cliff and she wouldn't possibly survive, but you underestimated a mother!
29:05I remember.
29:06I hold Jessica in my arms at the bottom of that cliff, crying in devastation.
29:10Her body is broken, her breathing shallow.
29:12I can feel her slipping away.
29:13No, don't do this to me!
29:15Moon goddess, I'm begging you, please save my daughter.
29:17I would give up everything.
29:18Please don't take my daughter from me.
29:20A glittering butterfly appears in front of my eyes.
29:22I stop crying and stare at it.
29:24It flutters, then flies toward the middle of the cliff.
29:26I follow its path.
29:27The butterfly rests on a small plant growing from the cliff face.
29:30That's mandragorius, but most magical herb in the world!
29:32Thank you, moon goddess!
29:34I manage to get up with great difficulty.
29:36My leg screams in protest, but I ignore it.
29:39I walk toward the cliff and begin to climb.
29:41I endure the excruciating pain in my leg.
29:44I struggle to climb the steep cliff.
29:46My grip slips once.
29:48Again.
29:49And again.
29:50And again.
29:51Five times I fall from that cliff before I finally reach the plant.
29:55Five times I get back up.
29:56Finally, I pull out the mandaborga.
29:58I hold it in my trembling hands and reveal a smile.
30:03I fell from that cliff five times before I got that life-saving herb.
30:06And I saved my daughter's life.
30:10Color drains from the faces of Nash and Amelia.
30:12They stand frozen, their eyes wide, their mouths slightly open.
30:16The perfect picture of guilt and terror.
30:17The guests present all look shocked and overwhelmed.
30:20Some have tears in their eyes.
30:22Others clench their fists in anger.
30:24Thank you, moon goddess.
30:26I look at them, at these people who are only now learning the truth.
30:30Then, my gaze returns to Nash and Amelia.
30:33I asked a healer to take care of my daughter.
30:35And I walked from the mountain to the lion palace, on bare feet.
30:40There was only one thought in my mind.
30:43I will make whoever hurt my daughter pay.
30:46I turn my full attention to Nash, letting him feel the weight of my gaze, the weight of my authority.
30:51Nash, what you've done is heinous and diabolical.
30:54I'm afraid what Ashwood Pack needs now is not a new Luna, but a new Alpha.
30:59Nash's face changes.
31:00Panic flashes across his features, quickly replaced by defiance.
31:03No! I am the Alpha of the Ashwood Pack.
31:05Only the High Council has the right to overturn an Alpha.
31:07You don't have the right!
31:08Before I can respond, a voice rings out from the entrance.
31:11The High Council is here.
31:13The people present all turn to the door.
31:15Three Council members in their 50s, dressed in suits, walk inside.
31:18They are stern and dignified, carrying themselves with a commanding presence.
31:21Nash and Amelia change their faces.
31:22This time, the fear is undeniable.
31:24The lead Council member steps forward and announces in a clear, carrying voice.
31:28I hereby announce Nash Ashclave's status as the Alpha of Ashwood Pack is revoked.
31:31The selection of the new Alpha begins now.
31:33Nash scans the Council members, his eyes wild.
31:36He looks for an ally, for someone to save him.
31:38Then he finds his voice.
31:39King Lowood is also a Council member.
31:42Why isn't he here?
31:43This is unfair!
31:44Right!
31:45Decisions can only be made when all the High Council members are present.
31:48What you just said is invalid!
31:50I look at them.
31:52Now you mention it.
31:54Lowell Lodge is no longer a High Council member.
31:57He's now being lashed in the dungeon for treason.
32:05Nash and Amelia's faces turn gray.
32:08All color, all defiles, all hope drains from them.
32:11They stand there, two monsters unmasked, their crimes laid bare for all to see.
32:16I look at them.
32:18How are you?
32:19Who are you?
32:19I know.
32:20How are you?까요
