Short filmTranscript
00:05I was carrying life. A miracle, after the war wounds that had stolen my hope of ever-bearing young.
00:12It was at today's banquet and celebration for the 7th anniversary of my marriage with Alpha Adrian.
00:177 years as Luna of the Moonholler pack. 7 years since I stopped being Princess Rosalina of the
00:23Silvermoon bloodline. I held the sacred leaf blessed by the moonbloom tree, ready to tell
00:28Adrian, my mate, my husband, that we would finally have family. True blood kin. After my entire
00:34lineage had sacrificed themselves 7 years ago to protect the divine moonbloom tree during the
00:39great pack wars. Adrian's beta, Lorenzo, laughed in Munholler dialect. Alpha, having the Silvermoon
00:46princess wasn't enough? Now you've got Bianca too? How's it feel owning the younger sister after
00:52the Luna Rosalina? Adrian's scorn vibrated through my chest. Eyes crept down my spine.
00:59He answered in the same tongue, thinking me deaf to their words.
01:03Bianca? Like mother, like daughter. Well always plays well in the bed.
01:09He pulled me closer, eyes drowning in devotion, while his lips curved with amusement.
01:13Careful, Lorenzo. If my Luna heard you, she'd be heartbroken. Lorenzo's smile turned knowing.
01:20After all, Luna comes from the heroic Silvermoon pack that sacrificed everything to save the moonbloom
01:25tree and broke peace during the wars. Without her status and your marriage to her, your brother
01:31Norman might have taken your position. You had to give Luna Rosalina some respect. Meanwhile,
01:38Bianca's just the bastard daughter Luna pitied enough to bring here.
01:42The hand at my waist went still. The air froze. Other warriors pulled Lorenzo away, laughing
01:48nervously. Alpha Adrian, forgive him. He's drunk. Everyone knows you treasure Luna above all.
01:55We'll take him. The warmth in my blood crystallized into winter. So that's what my family's extinction
02:02meant to them. A shiny trophy. A bargaining chip for inheritance rights. They didn't know. They
02:11carry the moon goddess's legacy so that every wolf tongue became clear as glass when I touched the
02:15moonbloom leaf. I forced my face into blank serenity, the smile I always wore, while my fingers whitened
02:22around the sacred moonbloom leaf. I didn't confront them. Instead, I sent word through the leaf to the
02:28moonbloom altar. Told them I, the last of the Silvermoon line, would finally accept their invitation to serve as
02:35priestess to serve the sacred moonbloom tree. I am gone. He tightened his grip on my waist, tender as
02:43ever. Darling, you look pale. Are you unwell? Looking into those fathomless green eyes, I felt only
02:50revulsion. One moment mocking my half-sister's eagerness, the next playing the devoted husband.
02:55How long could he keep this performance running? Nothing. Just curious. What were you discussing?
03:04Adrian paused. But after just a moment, he pinched my cheek with easy affection, chuckling.
03:10Territory disputes with the whispers. I didn't want to trouble you, which might draw you to the old
03:14memories seven years ago. So we used moon-how-er tongue. Idiot. He had no idea what moon goddess
03:21heritage could do. I pushed him away, feigning distant grief. I need air. I didn't wait for his
03:28response. I walked to the terrace, passing envious glances from other alpha's mates. Look at our
03:34moon-howers, Luna. So blessed. Moon goddess descendant, last princess of Silvermoon. Even after
03:41seven years, alpha Adrian throws her these grand celebrations every year. Such fortune. I'd kill for
03:48that position. Once, those words would have made me feel lucky. I thought I'd been given to the best
03:54mate in the world when my dying mother entrusted me to him with her dying breath. Now, the irony
03:59cut like frozen glass. No one knew. No one ever suspected that this man who swore undying love saw
04:05me as nothing but polished chess for his heritage game. That behind closed doors, he betrayed me to
04:11the deepest point. The moon bloom leaf glowed, interrupting my thoughts. Rosalada, blessed be the tree.
04:18You finally accepted. Seven years ago, when you chose that Adrian over priesthood, I mourned the waste.
04:27Come quickly. You can say goodbye to your family these next few days. Ah, so sorry.
04:35Anyway, no take backs. I'll send transport immediately. Agreed. I kept my voice light so
04:42she wouldn't feel my sorrow, but my knuckles had gone bloodless around the leaf. Seven years ago,
04:48my pack had summoned the tree's power to end the wars, paying with their lives. My mother, dying,
04:55entrusted me to Adrian. Then, I abandoned my path to priesthood to become his Luna. For seven years,
05:01he was my only family. My only family. If you didn't count the half-sister I'd brought here out
05:06of Mercy when her house fell. The very same woman who had already spreading herself across my husband's
05:12bed. Now, neither of them would be family anymore. Hi, priestess. I won't change my mind. Send someone
05:18now. And use your power to erase every trace of from this moment forward. Why? Once erased,
05:24Rosalina Silvermoon ceases to exist entirely. You'll abandon every bond to your pack. Even the link to
05:30Adrian? He already betrayed me. We have no link left. Once I gave up my path to be the moonbloom
05:35priestess, a birthright gifted by the moonbloom tree due to the maternal bloodline descended from
05:40the moon goddess buys, and I devoted myself to Adrian after losing everything, and received nothing.
05:46He swore to your mother, dust returns to dust. The moonbloom calls you home. I, High Priestess Otto,
05:54decree by the tree's authority. Rosalina Silvermoon is claimed by the divine moonbloom Alton. No wolf
06:00magic shall find her. Relief flooded me. With the priestess help, I could escape. Adrian would never
06:07track me. Child, you choose this without regret? Thank you, High Priestess. From this day,
06:13Luna Rosalina is dead, once betrayed, never forgiven. Suddenly, the familiar male voice came behind me.
06:19Darling, what are you saying about betray and forgive? I turned to see Adrian's emerald eyes
06:25sharpened with suspicion. I summoned my practiced gentle smile. Oh, we were chatting over a northern
06:31pack story where the alpha betrayed his Luna. Now she's severing their mate bond and reclaiming
06:37territory from the peace treaty. See, if he wanted to perform, I'd perform with him. His gaze raked my
06:43face, hunting for the micro-expressions that betray wolf emotion. Finding nothing, his shoulders
06:49loosened. His hands slid to my waist and a kiss pressed to my temple. What a fool. Betraying one's
06:57Luna is betraying one's pack. Betraying the treaty itself. My queen, that would never happen to us
07:03moonhowers. What if it did? I looked into those bottomless eyes and smiled thinly.
07:10Rosalina, no ifs. Adrian cut me off. I, Adrian Moonhowler, swear by pack honor and wolf spirit.
07:18I will never betray you. I haven't forgotten your pack sacrifice and how your mothers trust. Of
07:24course. Just hypothetical. He went quiet, then rubbed his rough jaw against my cheek. Ridiculous.
07:31Entangled with my half-sister on the one hand while showing me this faithful love at the other.
07:37If I betray you, curse me that I never find you through all eternity.
07:42Curse me that my wolf spirit ache for you forever. Curse me that Moonbloom abandoned my blood.
07:48You know this, Rosalina. You're my mate, my other half. Without you, my wolf would run death towards
07:55the sun. But if you ever try to leave me, I will hunt you down and bring you back to
08:00me,
08:00no matter where you go. I didn't answer, just simply stepping from his arms. The highest
08:08altar's escort would arrive soon. I was leaving this embrace I'd once craved.
08:13Adrian, the punishment you just named will find you soon enough. He gestured his hand.
08:18Alpha, everything's ready. Adrian nodded, a mysterious smile curving his lips. He took my
08:24hand to the terrace edge. Suddenly, he covered my eyes, whispering,
08:29Darling, I have something special for you. Five, four, three.
08:37When he removed his hand, the sight stole my breath. Hundreds of moon moths drawn by the tree's light
08:42danced overhead, their silver glow forming my name. Rosalina. Adrian embraced me from behind,
08:48voice honey sweet. Seven years married, and every day feels like the first. Seven years ago,
08:54your family summoned the tree to end the wars. Your mother gave you to me with her last breath.
08:58That was the most precious duty of my life. Looking at my name burning in the night sky,
09:03I felt a world away. Seven years. From innocent silver moon princess to moon haller luna.
09:08It changed enough to turn love to betrayal, vows to lies. Enough to understand that his duty and
09:14gratitude had become chains crushing whatever remained true. Adrian turned me to face him,
09:18emerald eyes intent enough to melt stone. Seven years, and I still want to give you everything.
09:25Your family's sacrifice, I will never forget. He leaned down to kiss me. The instant before our
09:32lips met, the leaf at his waist vibrated. Irritation flashed across his face, that expression I knew so
09:38well. Good. Saved me the trouble of dodging. Damn it. I gave clear orders, no interruptions tonight.
09:46Let's see which idiot defies their alpha. But when he saw the imprint on the leaf, his color changed.
09:52I glimpsed it. Bianca's unique signature. I knew. It was her. Adrian cleared his throat,
09:59tucking the leaf away, fingers flying across its surface. I watched clearly as panic flickered in his
10:05eyes, followed by naked hunger. Sure enough, he turned to me with perfectly calibrated regret.
10:11What is it? I asked casually, nails biting my palm. The truth screamed itself,
10:17yet some stupid part of me hoped, this time, he'd choose me. Whisper pack emergency. Border conflict.
10:24Darling, I have to step away. Now? I'm sorry. I know tonight matters, but this is urgent.
10:31You understand. Border stability maintains the peace treaty. He kissed my forehead.
10:37Rest. I'll return soon. I understand. Pack comes first. I nodded, playing the docile Luna. Relief washed
10:48over him. He hugged me hurriedly, then strode away. I stood on the terrace, watching him leave. My wolf
10:55hauled an agony inside me. I silenced her. Since he had urgent business, I'd see exactly how urgent.
11:02I followed Adrian to an estate across town. Bianca wore a tight red dress, 10 centimeter heels,
11:08spring fever wild. She threw herself into Adrian's arms. Darling, that moon moth display. I was so
11:15jealous. Big sister always gets the best. Just like she got Silver Moon's pure bloodline.
11:22Adrian patted her back, indulgent. Greedy little she-wolf. Wasn't your birthday
11:29celebration enough? Like your mother, greedy enough to climb from servant into your father's bed.
11:35I promised, behave, keep our secret from Rosalina and you'll have power and status too.
11:42Her family's extinct, just empty reputation now. But it's only been seven years since their sacrifice.
11:47I have my duty to perform and show some gratitude. The words drove through my heart like a thousand
11:53claws. I remembered that night, Adrian claimed he was handling pack traitors colluding with whisper
11:58pack. Gone all night. I'd stayed awake terrified, my wolf pacing endlessly. So this was the trouble he'd
12:06been handling. In bed. The real traitor was my husband, tangled with my half-sister. And I,
12:12his Luna, was the full left in darkness. I just envies her, my alpha. Why is she born princess while
12:19I'm bastard born? Why does her dead family still outrank me? There, there. What can I do? You're my
12:27treasure. Tonight, I have a surprise. Bianca whispered in his ear, then tugged his tie. Adrian's eyes blackened
12:35with desire. His wolf surfaced in his gaze. What are we waiting for? Tell me. Come upstairs and unwrap
12:44your gift yourself. In broad evening light, Adrian swept her up and strode inside. Bianca's moans
12:51drowned in his devouring kiss. The elevator doors closed, carrying them to the penthouse suite.
12:56I stood in the dark, watching them vanish. Seven years as mates. Worthless to him. His gratitude and
13:04duty so cheap. Though I'd already known, seeing it still carved me hollow. Tears finally broke free.
13:11I remembered our first year. Adrian had sworn by pack honor every anniversary. He'd stay by my side.
13:19Yet Bianca's single message made him abandon that sacred vow. I breathed deep, forcing down the storm,
13:25calming my wolf with pure willpower. Soon the altar escort would come. I'd escape. I returned to the
13:31estate, locking myself into a guest room. My wolf wept. Perhaps some hours later, I heard Adrian return.
13:39Rosalina? My Luna? Rosalina! He shouted through the master bedroom, voice rising to panic.
13:46Damn it! Where is she? Luna? Luna! Useless idiots! You lost the Luna?
13:53Alpha, we already searched the master room. Luna might have gone out. Find her! Right now!
13:59Footsteps approached. He searched room by room, his wolf's panic saturating the air. When he opened
14:06the guest room door, I pretended to just wake. Seeing me, his rage vanished.
14:11My goddess Rosalina, you terrified me. You came back without telling me? Do you know my wolf nearly tore the
14:18estate apart? I couldn't sleep, so changed a room. What's wrong? Nothing. Just losing you, I was afraid.
14:27He kissed my hair, voice still trembling with residual fear. If you truly cared, you wouldn't touch other
14:34women. Wouldn't touch my half-sister. I felt unwell. Came back early. Forgot to tell you.
14:41Soaked in his lies long enough, I could manufacture my own ones effortlessly now.
14:47Adrian's face flooded with relief. He lay beside me, locking me against him like precious treasure.
14:53Don't do that again. Losing you would drive me mad. My wolf would go feral. You know I'd do anything
14:59for you. Your family's sacrifice. And your mother chose me. I haven't forgotten.
15:05I closed my eyes, and he couldn't see the cold smile shown on my lips. Next morning, I prepared an
15:13elegant gift box. Inside, the Munheller royal badge symbolizing my Luna status, and the mate bond
15:19severance contract I drafted and signed through the night. Adrian, your gift for our seventh
15:24anniversary. He took it, eyes bright with delight and about to open it. No, wait two days. It will be
15:30meaningful then. He nodded obediently, placing the box carefully in his safe. I'll love it. Yes,
15:37you would love it then. In two days, I'd vanish completely, and this gift would tell him everything.
15:43I was in search of an unsuspicious excuse to avoid his energetic kiss when the doorbell rang and saved
15:47me from brainstorming. So energetic after his affectionate energy with another woman. The door
15:53opened. Speak of the devil. Here she would come. At the door stood Bianca, the bastard daughter of my
15:59father and the secret mistress of my husband, with her face streaked with tears, devastatingly
16:04fragile. And, in front of my eyes, she faintly fell her body into Adrian's arms. As if I never
16:10existed there, Adrian's face darkened instantly. He seized Bianca's wrist, dragging her to the back
16:16garden. Are you deaf to my warning? I warned you again, never show yourself here. If your sister
16:22suspects anything, you know the consequences. My wolf will tear you apart. Don't forget, you and
16:29your mother are silvermoon parasites. From my view upstairs, I watched everything clearly.
16:35Have you lost your mind? Want to drag all moonhowers down? If the peace council learns we're messing
16:40with Silvermore's last princess, do you know what happens? Adrian moved like enraged beast,
16:46wolf flickering in his eyes as he shoved her. Bianca took out a diagnosis report from the moonbloom
16:51physician. Even from distance, I caught her words. I know I shouldn't come, but I'm pregnant.
16:58The physician said last night was too dangerous. I'm nine weeks, high risk now. Adrian, I didn't want
17:07to trouble you, but I'm afraid. This is your first heir. Moonhower bloodline's future, the next alpha.
17:13Do you want your moonhower blood to die out completely? My sister cannot produce the heir.
17:18You know after the Great War's trauma. Lightning struck me to pieces. My chest hollowed, carved out,
17:25bleeding. Bianca, also carrying Pak Young? I remembered early talks about bloodlines.
17:31During the Great Klan War seven years ago, your body was weakened. Pregnancy would endanger your life.
17:40I hope for a love between partners that is pure.
17:43I'd believed his devotion, but trying so hard directly only to give him a surprise with my
17:48pregnancy. However, I'd never imagine another pregnancy would also surprise me. Now I understood.
17:54He could casually breed with other women. He'd never mind my incapably to produce children just
18:00because he didn't mind me that much as he pretended to be. Hearing pregnant, Adrian froze.
18:05He stared at Bianca's belly, confused. He'd always been careful. How could?
18:10Nine weeks? Critical stage. Must be careful. The pup. Our moonhower air cannot be endangered.
18:20Wait in the car. I'll arrange our best moonbloom physician for full examination.
18:24Bianca's tears turned to smiles. She rose on her toes to kiss him. Adrian's eyes darkened,
18:29but he turned slightly away. This is moonhower arranged. Careful besides. Your priority is
18:34protecting the pup. Don't alert the Peace Council. Don't provoke my wolf.
18:39He grinned roguishly, turning toward the villa. I retreated to my room, resuming my seat at the
18:46dressing table. Nine weeks. The first night I noticed him missing. I touched my own flat belly,
18:52guilt overwhelming. I'm sorry, little one. Your mother was useless. Couldn't give you a happy family.
18:59Couldn't give you an alpha father who'd love us both. Soon, Adrian entered.
19:04Rosalina, I must leave and handle something. The whispers, you know. Possibly targeting our border
19:10territory. I must deal with this personally. Stay at the estate and wait for me. I nodded calmly.
19:16Seeing my normal expression, he relaxed, kissed my forehead, left. His performance remained flawless,
19:23switching between the cheating man and devoted husband Alpha seamlessly. I watched him disappear,
19:28then checked the wall calendar. This might be our final meeting. That afternoon,
19:33the moonbloom leaf blazed unexpectedly. On screen, a tree physician's diagnosis,
19:38a tiny wolf pup curled in a womb. Then another scene, Adrian gently cupping Bianca's slightly
19:43rounded belly, bowing to kiss it with reverence. That tenderness on his face, I'd never seen it.
19:48The alpha cherishing his unborn heir. The senders left no signatures. Yet I know it was Bianca.
19:55Perhaps carrying the alpha's heir gave my half-sister courage to challenge the true Luna.
19:59She didn't know. None of it touched me anymore. My heart was a dead, silent sea. My wolf had gone
20:06quiet. Love dead inside. Only the thought of escape remained. Unsurprisingly, the next two days,
20:13silence from Adrian. I used the time erasing every trace from the estate. Silvermoon heirlooms went to
20:19the sanctum as donations. Personal belongings burned. Only essentials packed. Departure day was a rainy day.
20:26I woke before dawn, suitcase ready, waiting for the divine moonbloom altar's transport.
20:31About to confirm pickup time with the high priestess, the unknown contact sent again.
20:36Sister, physician says it's a boy. I'm carrying Moonhanger's heir. Adrian says he'll give me and
20:42the child status. You useless woman who can't bear heirs, get out of Moonhanger estate yourself.
20:47Don't forget, your Silvermoon family's dead. No one supports you.
20:51Congratulations. Your dream comes true soon.
20:54The moment I sent it, transport arrived. With resolve, I reached Moonhanger's tree altar,
21:00waiting for the teleportation circle to activate. Then, light flared from the circle. Before the
21:06altar it stood a row of Moonhanger royal guard. Seven years ago, Adrian and I had bonded here.
21:12Through rain, Adrian emerged from inside the altar house with a black umbrella,
21:16other hand gripping Bianca's. She wore white maternity dress, blinding in the downpour.
21:21They'd just finished blessing the unborn pup. As Adrian shielded Bianca with the umbrella,
21:26wind tore the rain curtain. He looked up, directly at me. Across the raindrops,
21:32at where our vows were witnessed and his lies were shown, our eyes met. Shock. Confusion. Terror in his
21:39gaze. His wolf's agony reached me even from here. His lips moved soundlessly, my name.
21:44I looked away. Severed our final connection. The moon bloom leaf vibrated endlessly,
21:50Adrian displayed. I disabled transmission entirely. Having accepted the high priestess
21:56maximum protection, I must sever all past completely. The car passed familiar streets,
22:01every inch Moonhanger territory, every memory with Adrian. Now, nothing to do with me. I removed
22:07the moon bloom leaf. Threw it from the window. Dammit! Tracker sent! Simultaneously, Adrian shoved
22:15through crowds, ignoring Bianca's cry, lunging toward where the car had stood, but it had merged
22:19into traffic, vanished, leaving only exhaust and rain-wet pavement. Adrian, what is it? Bianca
22:25clutched his sleeve. What happened? Nothing. Let's go. Returned to the car, but his wolf howled.
22:32Unease accumulated like stones. Rosalina, why there? Should be at the Munhauer estate. And that
22:39look, that look terrified him. The look of a wolf of love already gone. At the safe house,
22:45Adrian settled Bianca upstairs. Rest here, little she-wolf. Tomorrow, the tree physician for thorough
22:50examination. Okay, but stay with me. I have business. Back soon. His private leaf rang.
22:58Alpha Adrian, bad news. Luna, Luna Rosalina, she's gone. Her scent fading from the house.
23:06Adrian went bloodless. Gone how? Explain! Luna's room's empty personal items vanished.
23:13Worse, the Silvermoon heirlooms from her safe, important documents, even the Silvermoon family
23:19badge. All gone. We searched the entire estate. Not a trace of Luna's scent remains. As if she never
23:29existed here. The mate bond, Alpha, can you still feel it? The leaf slipped from Adrian's hand,
23:36crashing down. Ice-cold terror consumed him. He clutched his chest. Was the bond still beating,
23:42or growing fainter? Hearing commotion, Bianca descended. Adrian, you look terrible. What happened?
23:47He turned mechanically. Wolf flickering with suppressed rage.
23:51Shh. The steward says Rosalina's gone. I must find her.
23:55Bianca's heart surged with joy. Her provocation this morning had worked. That high Luna Rosalina
24:01had finally fallen from her throne. Watching Adrian's departing back, she forced down her
24:06smile, feigning concern to nearby warriors. Let's return and wait. But inside, she hoped more than
24:12anyone that Adrian would never find me. Adrian sent transmission after transmission. Only cold silence
24:18answered. The imprint you seek is disabled or temporarily unalible. Rain soaked his suit. He
24:25didn't care. After dozens of failures, he floored the accelerator, armored SUV bullets streaking through
24:31streets. The steward trembled to meet him. Alpha, why return? Adrian took stairs two at a time,
24:38bursting into the master bedroom. Everything erased. My existence scoured from the world.
24:43Empty closet. Empty vanity. Air devoid of my presence. He charged into my study. Tree texts gone.
24:52Desktop leaf gone. Everything gone. Alpha, we've searched everywhere. Confirmed.
24:59Luna's possessions all gone. Including the silver moon badge.
25:04Adrian stood frozen. Disbelief drowning his eyes. That badge, her birthright, never abandoned unless.
25:11Alpha, perhaps misunderstanding? Maybe she left for some unhappiness? Just temporary?
25:18Bullshit! Everyone, find the Luna now! I feel the bond weakening!
25:23Two days ago, when he was leaving, she'd seemed normal. He thought of Bianca's estate visit.
25:29Had something happened? No. Impossible. He'd been careful. Their conversation in the garden? No.
25:37Rosalina upstairs resting. His wolf would have sensed it. Adrian mobilized moon howler influence
25:42across north and south airports, train stations, border checkpoints. Nothing. No bank transactions,
25:49no credit imprints, no scent traces anywhere. Night passed. Nothing. How could she vanish without
25:55warning unless someone shielded her? A thought struck. Could Bianca have? Before finishing,
26:01his lieutenant Leonardo entered. He held a clear bag, shattered moonbloom leaf fragments.
26:07Alpha, we found this outside the pack altar. Luna's leaf. Pack's priest says it might be recoverable.
26:14Adrian took it, hands shaking. Rosalina would never destroy her own things.
26:18Fix this damn thing! Now! I want answers!
26:22Twenty minutes later, the repaired leaf returned. Screen lit. Final transmissions displayed.
26:28First, Bianca's diagnosis photo, tiny wolf pup. Second, Adrian cupping Bianca's belly,
26:34kissing it reverently. Then, Bianca's arrogant challenge.
26:37Sister, physician says it's a boy. I'm carrying Moonhanger's heir. Adrian says he'll give me and
26:44the child's status. You useless woman who can't bear heirs, get out of Moonhanger estate yourself.
26:49Don't forget, your Silvermoon family's dead. No one supports you.
26:53I learned later, that single provocation made Adrian understand everything.
26:57Bianca's messages had driven me away. His wolf howled in pain and fury. Volcanic rage erupted
27:03from his chest. My only regret, missing what came next. Later, through various pack channels,
27:09I pieced together that bloody night. It's said that Adrian drove like madness to Bianca's hidden
27:14estate. His wolf fully controlled him, eyes red. When Bianca opened the door, joy filled her face,
27:21thinking he'd finally abandoned me, dreaming of becoming next Luna.
27:25Adrian, taking me home? I'll pack now. I knew you couldn't abandon us. The moon bloom blessed us.
27:32The slap cracked across her face before she finished. Adrian seized her throat. His face black as hell,
27:39killing intent saturating the air. His wolf's roar echoed in his voice.
27:44Bianca, who gave you courage to tell Rosalina about us?
27:48Bianca clutched her face, stumbling backward, cold sweat drenching her back. For the first time,
27:54she saw death in his eyes. She knew Adrian's feelings for me ran deep, so she'd stayed docile
28:00as secret lover. But pregnancy swelled her ambition, who didn't want to be legitimate Moonhanger Luna.
28:05She'd gambled, sent that provocation, knowing I'd leave upon learning truth. Then everything would
28:11be hers. But she never expected Adrian to see those messages. Not stupid enough to confess now,
28:17she shook her head.
28:18Adrian, what are you saying? I don't understand. I only want to be with you. Never competed with
28:24sister for position. Would never send such messages. The moon bloom witnesses my truth.
28:30I don't know what you're talking about. Truth. Truth that you sent her what? Truth that you
28:34arrogantly announced your pregnancy? Without seeing those messages, he might have believed her. Now,
28:40the glaring text repeated in his mind, her lies only deepening the killing intent. He threw the leaf
28:45at her feet. Screen displayed her transmissions. Facing iron evidence, Bianca couldn't deny. Choking back
28:53sobs. She grabbed his arm, desperate. I know I shouldn't. But I couldn't bear our pup growing
28:58up bastard-born. Could you watch your bloodline, Royal Moonhauer blood air being gossip around?
29:03My bloodline to be gossiped? No. Bastard. He's worse than bast- I found what's between you and
29:09Norman. My wolf smells lies, Bianca. I warned you, Luna's position belongs to Rosalina always. You
29:16don't deserve it. You and your mother, silver moon parasites clinging to pure bloodlines. I kept you
29:21for novelty. How dare you compare to Rosalina? To the one in my heart? Her family sacrificed
29:27ending wars. Your mother's just a bed-climbing servant. If you'd stayed my little she-wolf,
29:34after birth I'd have provided for you both. But you broke my rules. Don't blame my cruelty.
29:41Adrian pulled a document from his pocket, Tree Bloodline Paternity Test. Seeing the paper,
29:46Bianca went paper-white, collapsing, stammering.
29:50How? Adrian, I can explain.
29:55Explain how you passed some bastard as my heir. You betrayed me, entangling with my bastard
30:00brother and having this bastard pup. My bloodline? You and your mother? Both cheaters.
30:06No, the pup is yours. The test is wrong. The moon bloom cursed it.
30:10Wrong? I had three different tree physicians. Test. Same result. Know what's most laughical?
30:19He crouched, finger under her chin. I lost the only woman I ever cared about. My mate.
30:25My other half. For a bastard not even mine. For your cheap lies like your mother's.
30:30Bianca knew argument was useless. Despair filled her eyes when the total matters.
30:36Adrian, you're the fool. Yes, the pup isn't yours. But that was enough to make Rosalina believe,
30:43wasn't it? She's gone. It wasn't me who drove her away. It was you. You'll never find her.
30:50She'll never forgive you. The bond is broken. Her family's entrustment. You'll never repay it.
30:56Hearing gone, Adrian's eyes renoned, Wolf fully manifesting.
31:00You lie! Rosalina will return. I'll apologize. She'll forgive me. The bond will heal.
31:07He roared toward the door. Mike, enter!
31:11A scarred middle-aged man entered, his wolf dark and vicious.
31:14Moon Howler's most ruthless enforcer.
31:17Alpha, dispose of her. And the bastard in her belly.
31:21Clean. I want no more news of them, ever. Erase their scent from existence, as if they never existed.
31:29Bianca never imagined such ruthlessness. Her pleas turned increasingly frantic and sharp.
31:36But Adrian never looked at her again. His wolf had already judged her unworthy of attention.
31:42Having disposed of the cheating woman, Adrian threw all energy into finding me.
31:46But whether through Peace Council contacts or activating the collaboration of North and South's
31:51networks, no trace. Even his Supernatural Council connections found no records.
31:56As if I never existed. The mate bond grew. Faint. Distant.
32:03Impossible!
32:04Adrian's fist smashed the table, shattering it. His wolf howled in defeat.
32:09A living wolf can't vanish! A mate can't evaporate!
32:14Then Adrian remembered Anniversary Night. My question? His vow.
32:19If I betray you, curse me that I never find you through all eternity. Curse me that my wolf
32:25spirit ache for you forever. Curse me that Moon Bloom abandoned my blood.
32:31Now, his vow became cruel self-fulfillment. He suddenly remembered the elegant gift box I'd given
32:37before leaving. I told him to open it in two days, the day I vanished. My sudden disappearance had
32:44scattered his wits, he'd forgotten completely. In desperation, hope flickered. Perhaps clues to my
32:51location inside. Perhaps just a lesson, waiting somewhere for his repentance. He carefully retrieved
32:57the velvet box, hands trembling, slowly opening. Inside lay a badge, the Munhauer family badge symbolizing
33:04our alliance, representing my Munhauer Luna status. Beside it, a mate bond severance contract.
33:10My signature prominent at the bottom, the Munblum's blessing, retracted. In that moment,
33:17the bond broken, his final fantasy shattered. He finally understood, this time, I was determined
33:23to leave. Forever. I'd rejected the bond, ever and forever. Overwhelming regret drowned him.
33:31He wanted to strike himself. Why had he touched that accursed woman? Just because pack gossip claimed
33:37he owed Rosalina his secure inheritance, making him eager to show masculine dominance. Chained to
33:43one woman, such alpha life seemed suffocating. At pack gatherings, other alphas teasing, momentary
33:49wavering and finally entanglement with that woman. But he'd never wanted to abandon me. In his heart,
33:55I was always his only queen, only Luna. He'd never imagined momentary curiosity would destroy seven
34:01years of mating. Lose his most precious woman. Lose his other half. Munhauer's pack priest,
34:07Dante, entered. Alpha, found a clue. What clue? No clue. Are you provoking your alpha?
34:15Alpha, you found nothing through pack channels. I searched through Moonbloom Alta's secret arts.
34:19Nothing. No clue is the only clue. Following Dante's gaze, they looked toward the south,
34:24the direction of the divine Moonbloom tree, the moon goddess's divine proxy in this world,
34:29whose blessings wolves depended upon. Seven years ago, juvenile wolf transformation sickness had
34:35sparked the wars as packs fought for tree power to sustain their bloodlines. Yet no pack could
34:40violate tree territory, regardless of the great wars. This was why the Silvermoon earned respect,
34:46dying to summon tree power and end the war. But for Rosalina, even challenging the Moonbloom itself,
34:51even sacrificing everything, he would pay any price. Meanwhile, at the highest sacred altar of the
34:58Moonbloom tree, I worked relentlessly. After marrying Adrian, I'd been away from tree maintenance
35:03for years, skills grown rusty. Unwilling to disappoint the High Priestess, I stayed and served
35:10beneath the tree constantly. Intensive maintenance consumed all time, leaving no energy for thoughts of
35:16that world full of betrayals and lies. I, together with my fellow priestesses, dedicated to the tree
35:22completely. We worked toward keeping the Moonbloom vibrant. Blessing juvenile wolf's transformations,
35:28only pious cooperation, no betrayal or deception. No dominant struggles for pack hierarchy.
35:34Unconsciously, the year's greatest full moon eve arrived. Our first maintenance phase finally broke
35:40through, the Moonbloom radiated unprecedented light. Everyone rejoiced. As we prepared celebration,
35:46the High Priestess voice came through the leaf, summoning all core priests to the council chamber
35:51to meet an important new patron. Wearing my daily priestess robe, I entered the chamber.
35:57Never imagined, the face in the center was the one I most wished never to see again.
36:01Adrian Munhauer. The maid I'd loved, destined partner, then the betrayer, now the wolf king I
36:07wanted erased from memory. The High Priestess seated Adrian prominently, introducing this generous
36:13patron to everyone. Only then did I learn, this alpha had donated nearly all Munhauer pack's lunar
36:19sacred artifacts and invested almost his everything in our tree maintenance project, solely to gain
36:23the altar's access. Solely to find me. I forced composure, face blank, staring at the screen. My long
36:32silent wolf stirred uneasily. Mr. Moonhopper has made the largest single donation in our maintenance
36:38project's history. May the tree bless his generality. The chamber erupted in applause,
36:44cheering for this massive resource injection. His patronage will accelerate the Moonbloom's
36:49radiance restoration. Everyone please attend tonight's welcome banquet. That evening, I had no choice.
36:57I attended. I wore simple white priestess robes, ordinary daily attire for tree service. Adrian stood at
37:03the banquet center, wearing tailored royal robes. Thinner, hollow-eyed, but those emerald eyes remained
37:10sharp as ever. His wolf radiated unmistakable despair. Throughout the banquet, I completely
37:16ignored his existence, focusing on maintenance discussions with those around me. Yet I clearly
37:21felt that heavy, burning gaze following me constantly. I sensed the shadow of our dead bond,
37:27trying to reconnect. After the banquet, I hurried toward the dormitory area, only to be blocked at the
37:33corridor corner. Adrian stood before me, two cautious Moonbloom guards behind. I'd known this moment
37:40would come. I turned, facing those eyes I'd once loved, now loathed, voice ice-cold. What are you doing
37:47here? Rosalina, I finally found you. Do you know what I sacrificed to find you? I liquidated Moonhowler
37:54assets, searched every pack for lunar sacred artifacts, just to step into this place and find you.
37:59My wolf is dying without you. The Moonbloom no longer answers my prayers. When you left, why didn't
38:06you tell me? I searched like mad, mobilized all networks across the north and south. I'm Rattles,
38:12every pack contact. I'm no longer Rosalina Moonhower, nor your Luna. You have no reason to find me.
38:19The mate bond is severed. You have Moonhowers to lead. Find a new Luna, one who can bear your
38:25heirs, one who won't remind you of Silvermoon's duty debts. I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have
38:31touched that cheater. Bianca and the pup, I've disposed of them. They're gone. Come home,
38:37Rosalina, where you belong. My wolf needs you. Moonhowlers needs you. Your family's entrustness.
38:43I haven't repaid. Hearing him casually say disposed of my half-sister, ice filled me. This man's coldness
38:49exceeded imagination. This was the alpha I'd loved. I even began doubting, seven years married. Had I
38:56ever truly known him? Adrienne, from the moment you started cheating, we ended. The Moonbloom
39:03witnessed your betrayal. I don't know how you found me, but I erased my identity, evaporated from the
39:11world. Isn't that clear enough? I want nothing more to do with your world. With Moonhowler's world.
39:18My family's sacrifice shouldn't be your betrayal's bargaining chip. I responded coldly, turning to
39:24leave. Adrienne stood frozen, voice carrying humility I'd never heard, and alpha begging.
39:31But I know I was wrong. Just that once, I swear by wolf spirit. Forgive me, I swear. Besides you,
39:38no other she-wolf will share my den. No other she-wolf will share my territory. I'll spend my life
39:44repaying Silvermoon's entrustness. Infidelity isn't mistake, it's choice, and I never tolerate
39:49betrayal. Not once. In my eyes, you're already dead. Besides, blood debt now divides us. However
39:57unworthy Biannica was, she was my half-sister. You killed her. I'll never forgive the murderer.
40:04My wolf will never accept you again. Your debt to my family ends here.
40:08The pup. Wasn't mine, Rosalina. Tree paternity test proved it.
40:14I don't want to hear. It doesn't matter anymore. Just then, the two altar guards approached.
40:20Sir, this is core maintenance area. You must leave immediately.
40:23I exhaled relief, turning toward my room. My wolf fell silent again. Just as I was closing my door,
40:30a heart-rending cry came from behind, half-human, half-wolf howl.
40:36Rosalina! If I hadn't touched her, if I'd stopped everything in time, would you have stayed?
40:42Given me another chance?
40:44My steps paused. I didn't turn back. Didn't answer. I closed the door, shutting out that world of betrayal
40:52and lies completely. After all, in this world, there are no ifs. Only choices and consequences.
40:59And I had already found my own path. Without him. Without Munhowlers. Without Wolf Bonds.
41:07That night, I fell asleep smiling on the right track I was meant to go for to be
41:11Priestess of the Moon Bloom, true inheritor of Silvermoon shouldering my identity as the last
41:16moon goddess descendant.
