00:24got what was meant for me that morning chantelle claimed it was an accident i put on your luna
00:30gown by mistake and ian drank too much he didn't even realize who who he was with
00:35chantelle in my torn gown marks everywhere ian wouldn't look at me
00:42my dad kicked him to the floor ian hugged me caitlin i messed up but we can't ignore what
00:48happened please just let us be happy i'd always said no everyone expected me to explode instead
00:55i smiled so go ahead you two can complete the bond today right here ian breathed out like i'd freed
01:03him caitlin hale you're really letting these two trash wolves get away with this get a haunt
01:11my mother screamed i'd humiliated our family i grabbed both of them and pulled them away before
01:16they lost control they were shaking with rage at the corner of the hallway i reached inside my
01:21dress and took out the moonstone charm my grandma had left me or rather what was left of it it
01:27had
01:27split clean in half the second they saw it all the anger drained from their faces mom dad grandmom's
01:34charm broke now it was in two pieces in my hand mom grabbed my wrist and hauled me into the
01:45elevator
01:46she stared at the broken moonstone then at me this just happened dad's face went from red to gray
01:52his fingers trembled no way limit broke when ian hugs me
02:01mom and dad exchanged a look panic on their faces hit me harder than anything upstairs
02:05the moonstone charm was no ordinary keepsake
02:10it was meant to intercept one catastrophe for me just one if it broke something catastrophic had
02:15just been diverted we're moving now hurry outside my parents kicked for ian's photo scans and took mine
02:21mom told the coordinator every word every photo every image nothing with my name could stay i pulled
02:29out my phone and deleted everything of ian his number his photos his contact info everything
02:36we fled the lodge in a panic that same night my whole family left the city the reason my whole
02:43family panicked that hard was the moonstone charm my grandma wasn't just an old woman with stories
02:48she was the seer the day she died was a bright winter afternoon she was sitting in the yard in
02:52her
02:52rock when she called my name caitlin i was eight she took off the moonstone charm she had worn her
02:58whole
02:58life and tied it around my neck she told me to keep it on never take it off if it
03:02ever broke it meant it
03:03had just blocked disaster for me then i had to run immediately away from whoever was closest when
03:09it shattered when the stone breaks it won't be bad luck it'll be ruin i didn't understand i asked her
03:14what kind of ruin she locked eyes with me and rasped three words three pines hollow three pines hollow
03:22just those three words then she leaned back in the chair closed her eyes and passed away peacefully
03:29grandma her funeral was huge not just our pack came important people from six neighboring territories
03:36showed up too that was how much her name still carried afterward i told my parents everything
03:41what grandma had given me what she had said then i asked them what three pines hollow meant
03:46they refused to answer instead they packed our bags and retreated to the city overnight
03:57years later all those buried memories came rushing back what happened between me ian and chantelle spread
04:04all over social media at first everyone dragged chantelle called her trash for sleeping with her best
04:10friend's fiancee but then people found out i hadn't screamed i hadn't fought i handed over the groom and the
04:16entire bonding ceremony without a scene and suddenly they turned on me now i was the coward the weak one
04:22the rumors got uglier by the hour but i didn't care let them talk chantelle stole my place in the
04:29ceremony now she was standing in the luna's place ian's publicly recognized mate and she loved every second
04:36of it she posted non-stop a diamond ring the size of a robin's egg a two million dollar mating
04:41token
04:42ian kneeling to fasten an old family anklet around her ankle closet after closet of luxury goods
04:48every post screamed the same thing she had won and her captions thanked me thanks caitlin and thanks
04:55to the version of me who was brave enough to chase love she said this time she was getting both
05:02money
05:02and love i looked at their fake happiness and laughed she had no idea what she had taken from me
05:07she took
05:08everything public bragging about stealing my ceremony like it was a bold love story overnight
05:12she gained half a million followers comments cheered for her then people found out my family had moved
05:18they called us cowards and losers i could take the insults aimed at me but when they mocked my parents
05:24i snapped i wrote in chantelle's comments say what you want about me but leave my family out of it
05:29and stop using me for clout chantelle never replied she just liked every comment that trashed me
05:35i shook my head the moon goddess sees everything we moved half a territory away mom suggested a nearby
05:43city but dad insisted on going hundreds of miles so we went that night i finally asked my parents
05:50what grandma meant by ruin their faces went stiff mom dad when grandma said ruin what exactly did she mean
06:01maybe it's time we tell her dad hesitated you tell her ruin how
06:08i asked what kind of ruin like a wildfire or a landslide do you remember three pines hollow
06:16yeah grandma said it right before she died mom's expression turned uneasy
06:20she explained that three pines hollow was a settlement just beyond our old pack lands
06:24hundreds of people lived there then one night every single person was found hanging the warmth of
06:31the table died instantly i was stunned all this time i thought grandma had meant a natural disaster
06:37a flood an earthquake i never imagined something so twisted my parents both looked uneasy they answered
06:44together that place was under a curse we finished dinner but the shock stayed with me no wonder grandma
06:50had given me that moonstone right before she died that little stone had blocked something huge something
06:55monstrous grandma hadn't just read fate for others she had seen mine too just thinking about three pines
07:02hollow made my neck prickle hundreds of people hanging overnight that wasn't just tragedy that was a
07:08nightmare but one question kept digging at me why hadn't the charm broken earlier why only after ian and
07:15chantel crossed that line together i was still sitting there half in awe of how terrifyingly sharp
07:20she had been when my phone rang an unknown number caitlin are you okay caitlin are you okay it was
07:30ian's
07:30smooth voice i hung up immediately and blocked the number not after that night after that i stopped
07:36answering every unknown call i was terrified meanwhile chantel kept showing off online like she had won the
07:44world luxury cars designer watches gold silver late that night chantel went live she was dressed to kill
07:53full glam pale fur pack crest jewelry lounging on a couch inside the alpha estate like she'd been born there
08:01people flooded in praising her looks she played the part perfectly she said she was bored and wanted
08:07to spend time with everyone then she showed off a few designer bags and then because of the comments
08:13she brought me up again some girls are just not cut out for it even if you spoon feed them
08:19they still
08:19can't swallow it she laughed and claimed i'd never truly treated her like a best friend she called it
08:25classic insecure friend behavior and she leaned back and smiled wider she said i was probably hiding
08:31somewhere that my family ran the same night she and ian bonded her whole family ran away that night
08:37afraid that i would come back as the alpha's wife to take revenge lie after lie listening to her rewrite
08:45everything i kept thinking how the hell had i ever been this blind but while she was busy smearing
08:52me people in the live stream started noticing something strange wait did her closet just move
08:57did anybody else see that why does it look like something's in there chantel check behind you
09:06at first she didn't notice the comments then the chat moved so fast the whole screen seemed to scream
09:12at her to turn around and i saw it too the closet behind her was cracked open just a sliver
09:18in that
09:18narrow gap there appeared to be an eye you people are so sick you love trying to freak me out
09:25she
09:25insisted no one else was in the estate that night then as if to prove a point she walked over
09:29to the
09:30closet in her heels grabbed the handle and yanked it open a man in black leather tumbled out upside
09:36down and hit the floor expensive jewelry spilled around in here don't let it touch me then he looked
09:42up not at chantelle but past her at something behind her he let out a raw broken scream dropped to
09:48his
09:48knees and started prostrating himself slamming his forehead into the floor until blood pooled
09:54chantelle froze for half a second then clutched her chest and screamed for help everything turned
09:59chaotic someone hit the phone the live stream crashed sideways after that i couldn't see what happened
10:04then i thought of what my mom had told me about three pines hollow and a sick feeling twisted in
10:08my
10:08stomach maybe this was the beginning of that ruin because i knew one thing for sure there was something
10:13old and wrong inside the alpha state now
10:19the break-in at the alpha state blew up online ian rushed back to calm chantelle i had been watching
10:26the live stream too but exited as soon as ian appeared that ruin was getting closer i wanted nothing
10:32tying me to him my phone lit up sophie my college roommate messaged me she knew chantelle too sophie said
10:40she heard what chantelle did and told me not to be upset i wasn't heartbroken anymore so i just
10:45thanked her i turned sophie down flat then she asked if i wanted payback that made me pause sophie
10:52and chantelle had always been close did i hate chantelle yes but go near her no she was sleeping
11:00beside ian standing in my place i turned sophie down flat she kept pushing trying too hard i got annoyed
11:07and
11:07muted her mom dad what is all this are we stocking up for the apocalypse cut back on those doomday
11:18novels
11:19but this time it's not that different we just don't know how long it's gonna last for the next month
11:25staying alive matters more i had to take time off work or quit staying alive mattered more and one more
11:32thing you're not watching those either they cut off every way the thing could touch us dad also told
11:39me to stop watching chantelle's live streams i blocked her account
11:48dad sat on the balcony smoking staring at red clouds
11:53this time somebody's done for
11:59we shut ourselves in didn't go out once my parents talk about three pines hollow was still vague
12:05but if hundreds of people really hang themselves in one night what else could it be meanwhile chantelle
12:11and ian lived better than ever luxury stores yachts everything so the three of us shut ourselves in
12:19didn't go out not once until the middle of that month the haunting took hold at the alpha estate
12:27even with chantelle blocked i heard about it one night chantelle woke to crying it got louder sharper
12:33like a blade scraping through dark she realized it came from her balcony on the fourth floor no one
12:39should have gotten there unseen she looked over a woman in a white dress long black hair curled
12:45outside chantelle screamed servants came running balcony door locked nothing outside no one chantelle
12:55ian's family said chantelle imagined it until the second thing ian's younger brother sleepwalked
13:03that night he dreamed of a girl in white by the pool he tapped her shoulder
13:08she laughed high-pitched and sharp the sound echoed through the whole estate
13:13when he snapped out of his arm then something dragged him into the pool two fingers jammed into
13:19his eye sockets he screamed guard stayed
13:25one incident coincidence two in a row no chance two incidents in a row no chance chantelle told it all
13:34on
13:34live stream what happens in the pack stays in the pack we don't air any pack and stays will plagues
13:40where they go air dirty laundry on the web after i listened to one creator break the whole thing down
13:46a chill crawled right up my spine a chill crawled up my spine
13:51just looking at it made me grateful all over again for how far ahead grandma had seen
13:57this was just the beginning worse than three pines hollow i didn't want to imagine
14:05yeah what is it
14:11i sat on the sofa sipping red wine to calm my nerves silently grateful for grandma's foresight
14:16all those years ago then my phone rang yeah what is it you heard about what's happening at
14:21chantelle's place right right yeah caitlin what do you think do you think somebody's taking revenge
14:26on her what are you trying to say that i did it because i didn't no no i'm not saying
14:30that i just
14:30mean maybe this is karma caitlin i heard your grandma used to be this famous seer that anyone
14:35in your family still know the old boarding rules no sophie was chantelle's go-between maybe even
14:40her spy they could keep dreaming sophie called not about chantelle at dinner i told my parents
14:46your grandma saw this too dad said grandma saw this too i nearly choked oh my god grandma was
14:54unreal this ruin can't be avoided the moonstone only intercepted it for you once only once as for
15:00everyone else they'll have to depend on their own fate as for that backstabbing friend of yours if
15:04they really want a chance have somebody tell them to go south of the city blackwood ridge there's an
15:09old rights keeper that can do anything that depends on what kind of debt has found their line
15:13my dad really was too soft-hearted honestly i had never planned to save chantelle but once he said
15:19it i nodded then i passed his message to sophie word for word and told her reflay it to ian's
15:25family
15:26they moved fast really fast go to blackwood ridge right away
15:37ian's family moved fast they sent people to blackwood ridge and brought the old rights keeper
15:42back that same night we stayed holed up at home like cowards we had just moved into a new apartment
15:49every time we went out we wore masks and avoided neighbors we couldn't be recognized or tied back
15:54to ian's line so far nobody knew we were the family mocked online my parents followed grandma's rules
16:00stay quiet stay hidden at first i thought chantelle might dodge this thing but we were wrong dead wrong
16:08someone in ian's family died the first one to go was ian's father
16:15it happened on the night of his 70th birthday he drowned the marks around the bathroom showed he had
16:21fought back hard and there were scratches all over his face either the alpha patriarch forced his own
16:26face into the toilet and drowned himself or something from inside the toilet reached up grabbed him and
16:30held him there until he died a birthday turned into a funeral ian's whole family fell into panic
16:35that doesn't make sense by the old rules your grandma followed even if the rights keeper couldn't
16:40stop the ruin he should have at least been able to slow it down but it's barely been any time
16:45and
16:45someone's already dead maybe this is just the debt coming due or maybe maybe they never found the keeper
16:52at all caitlin call and ask and remember do not tell them where we are i nodded and called sophie
17:03hey caitlin what's up that old rights keeper i told you about did you pass the message on or not
17:09huh well um caitlin where are you guys right now the second she said that my whole family went on
17:16alert don't worry about where i am answer my question first i did tell them about the keeper but
17:22chantelle told me that keeper broke from fright what start over tell me exactly what happened
17:30we went to the ridge temple and when we found him
17:36from what sophie told me chantelle went straight to ian with the message the very next day ian sent
17:41people up to blackwood ridge to find the old rules keeper and that same night they brought him back to
17:46the
17:46estate the man was gaunt skeletal and faded robes he walked the ground slowly listening to something
17:52under the walls then he told them the truth something the truth is buried deep within these
17:58walls and it is far more terrible than you can imagine the family moved out leaving him toward the house
18:08he covered it in paper wards painted sigils burned bitter herbs the place felt like a coffin
18:18in the house guards heard nothing all night at dawn the family rushed back everything looked the same
18:24but the keeper was gone they searched old gentleman ian found him in the underground cellar curled up
18:32against dry storage bags the flower had turned black the keeper's eyes twitched wildly he kept muttering
18:39forgive me don't come back and gouged out both his own eyes
18:49grandma's moonstone hadn't saved me it had cut me out of a blood debt caitlin do you know any other
18:55way to stop this dad motioned me to hang up i don't know i said i didn't know and ended
19:00the call
19:01dad we have to go right now we can't stay here either we're leaving the province
19:23we left the province in a panic didn't even take our supplies we bought planes and got out
19:34by the time chantelle found our home address all she could do was curse us out to stay alive we
19:40headed straight for the countryside and checked into a hunting lodge
19:45good thing we ran fast they started calling me like lunatics hundreds of numbers but i had set my phone
19:53to auto reject
19:57this time the one who died was ian's younger brother found hanged a deep ligature mark around
20:04his neck but police never found a rope no cord no belt no murder weapon now chantelle was truly
20:13terrified ian's family scattered some fled overseas some begged the pack council for protection everyone
20:19tried to get away from ian's bloodline chantelle and ian brought in more warders more rights workers
20:24day and night dad just said it was useless back then even hundreds of people together at three pines
20:30hollow didn't survive what happened at three pines hollow was bizarre grandma foreseen total destruction
20:36she went there and asked if they had done something unforgivable crazy old woman get out
20:43they denied everything and chased her away calling her a madwoman
20:59that same night a child vanished from three pines hollow the whole village searched they found him
21:05trapped inside a dense blackthorn thicket the branches were covered in vicious spikes and black
21:10horn never grows alone it forms a living cage the boy's cries came from the center they had to chop
21:16the
21:16whole thing down when they pulled him free he was out of his mind a few days later the villagers
21:25begged grandma
21:26for help i cannot save you a few days after that the whole village was found hanged in their own
21:43homes
21:44no murder weapon no rope nothing overnight wiped out
21:48later grandma
21:49water give me water go away the people of three pines hollow
22:09had ruined a woman who was only passing through she came asking for water
22:14the whole village the whole village helped to track her they locked her in an abandoned barn
22:25they started her broke her
22:27slowly the sun brought her food he found her hanging dead rotting her white dress swaying in the dark
22:35her neck stretched too long by then she was no longer in her right mind whatever they did had broken
22:41her
22:41before death i thought three pines hollow was wiped out by hanging ian's brother was hanged too could this
22:49be the same thing my parents hated my guess don't go down that rabbit hole if your grandmother's charm
22:55hadn't blocked this for you the people dying right now wouldn't just be them
23:07a chill went through me if grandma hadn't left me the moonstone and if
23:12and yet him shantin hadn't stolen ian i would be the one trapped in that estate
23:20shantin had become my stand-in then the one who ran farthest died ian's uncle overseer hanged
23:27i noticed a pattern the farther they ran the faster the debt found them
23:32like something unseen was warning don't leave the estate
23:42could this be karma for stealing someone else's alpha
23:47if i apologize now is it too late she blocked my number wronged you
23:56the cheating was my fault my family's being punished now can you please save me i just shook my head
24:04cheating had only redirected the disaster there was something older underneath it all then ian had a
24:10dream a strange girl took his hand and said she would show him somewhere beautiful we're going
24:15she told him to lift the stone pressing on him he obeyed then to put his hand here and pass
24:20through
24:21the waterfall if the stone he did that's pressing then to climb the mountain he did then to cross a
24:25stream she stepped over first and waved ian said okay and was about to follow
24:37the girl's face twisted she snarled you're awake chantel dragged ian back from the rooftop edge
24:44below is a 10-story drop one more step and he would have been dead the whole thing was caught
24:49on
24:50live stream ian finally understood lift the stone meant throw off the blanket pass through the waterfall
24:58don't go over unlock the door climb the mountain meant take the stairs cross the stream meant jump
25:11i heard about it it scared me numb this ruin could not be avoided chantel had told ian about
25:19my grandmother so now they were hunting for us more deaths from overseas the farthest runners died
25:26fastest chantel the first to see the woman stayed closest to the estate and was still alive i told
25:33my parents dad said maybe it was a warning not to run i asked if staying closer meant better odds
25:39they
25:40didn't answer i thought for a long time then had sophie pass along what i observed that same night
25:47ian and chantel moved back into the estate more than half a year passed ian's family was wrecked
25:54yet somehow ian and chantel were still alive people said they had escaped the curse they kept living in
25:59the mansion covered in the dead keepers then new updates came both had completely broken down
26:06their minds were gone they couldn't clean couldn't function barely recognized day from night
26:11the estate became a nightmare trash rotting food rats roaches it looked like a giant grave
26:19i thought the disaster was finally over then dad told me something that stopped me cold
26:26ian had been the child trapped in the blackboard thicket at three pines hollow
26:34his parents sent him to a hospital in another province that was why he survived
26:38he eventually came back to himself but forgot his childhood then he was adopted by a good family
26:44ian's father's line grandma had seen it on the night three pines hollow fell one person probably
26:50slipped through ian's age matched that boy the death had never ended it had changed houses changed names
26:57waited but i still told myself none of it had anything to do with me anymore then something new
27:03happened many people online said they had all dreamed of the same woman in white every one of them had
27:08watched chantelle's live streams i finally understood what grandma meant by ruin the live stream hadn't
27:14just shown the horror it had carried it it turned every viewer into a witness and witnessing opened the door
27:27when three pines hollow fell she had not harmed any innocent outsider she still knew who she wanted
27:33but now strangers who only watched through a screen were dreaming of her her restraint was gone the ruin was
27:40still spreading i scrolled through comments people seeing her on balconies by lakes faceless
27:50i closed the app outside autumn wind acorns falling everything looked peaceful too peaceful the net was
27:57tightening around thousands of eyes after dinner i helped mom clear dishes she could tell i was still
28:06thinking about it i asked if that thing could travel through live streams through watching how many people
28:11would die mom turned on the faucet with water running she said grandma once said that woman went alive
28:20hated being falsely accused three pines hollow said she was sleeping around but she was only passing
28:25through asking for water i froze she wasn't already like that mom shook her head they terrorized her until
28:35she broke they locked her in the shed by the third day she broke by the fifth she thanked herself
28:41i asked what
28:43she was wearing mom shut off the faucet a white dress almost white that night i couldn't sleep i held
28:51the
28:52broken moonstone grandma had worn it for 99 years i had worn it for less than 10 it blocked one
28:57disaster
28:58then it broke for the first time i regretted not asking grandma one more question what was that woman's
29:04name that night i dreamed of grandma she sat in her rocking chair the yellow dog lay at her feet
29:10i crouched
29:11by her knees she called my name i asked what happened to the woman from three pines hollow
29:18grandma didn't answer she touched my head and said you just live well
29:29i woke up with a damp pillow
29:34next morning dad said he was going to town for supplies i went with him
29:41on the way he told me mom wanted to take me back home for a visit
29:43not now after things settle grandma's grave needed fresh soil also before she died she left a box
29:50under her bed they never touched it mom thought it was meant for me i didn't ask anything else
29:55in town dad bought oranges i stayed in the truck then my phone buzzed sophie we hadn't talked in a
30:03long
30:03time she asked if i had heard about ian and chantelle i typed yeah she sent a long message
30:11two nights ago during a shift change ian climbed onto a third floor balcony saying
30:16once i cross the stream i'll be home an orderly grabbed him but couldn't hold him he jumped he
30:22didn't die but both legs were broken chantelle was completely gone she didn't recognize anyone
30:28every day she hugged ian's suit jacket repeating
30:33it wasn't me i wasn't the one who locked you up
30:38don't come for me sophie's last message if i hadn't given her that ceremony would the one
30:45in the hospital be me i locked the screen outside dad looked old half his hair had gone white since
30:52grandma's warning if the charm breaks leave immediately they had spent their lives running
30:57from hometown to city to another province to this little town beyond any pack land they had done
31:05nothing wrong grandma saw it coming they believed her and used everything to keep me alive ian died with
31:12the first snow of winter sophie sent the news post-op infection multiple organ failure chantelle was sent
31:19back to her family still the same if not controlled she hit people and screamed no one dared live in
31:26the
31:26estate now listed for sale for six months no buyers people said you could hear crying from inside at
31:32night i deleted the screenshot winter came the oak tree was bare this little town was quiet no one knew
31:40we had escaped such a large disaster the hashtag about the woman in white was scrubbed from trending
31:46not because it ended but because it was too strange and dangerous under the silence the dreams still
31:52happened five springs passed people forgot only we were still alive hiding like survivors on stolen time
32:00eventually we stepped out the air felt clean i was tired not from surviving one terrible thing
32:06but from half a life tied to prophecy i wanted to see the ocean my parents nodded i took a
32:13train east the
32:14ocean opened up waves rolled in endless the wind was wet and salty i stood at the shore my whole
32:21life
32:22i had lived inside prophecy dragged by invisible ropes what was on the other side of the sea the waves
32:28answered nothing maybe the other side was just another sea and the far shore every chained person
32:34longs for is not a place it is learning to live with the water already inside you under the open
32:40moon
32:40with no bond and no pack i let out a slow breath for the first time in five years i
32:46was not waiting for the next
32:48prophecy
32:48you
