Short filmTranscript
00:02The full moon hung over the Alpha Prince's fortress cold, silent, merciless.
00:08Its silver glow draped the stone spires casting long, haunting shadows that matched the emptiness
00:13in my chest.
00:15That night, I lost my fifth pup again.
00:19The pack healers all said the same thing.
00:21My body was too weak to carry an Alpha's blood, too fragile to withstand the primal
00:26ferocity of an Alpha's cub, so I believed them.
00:30For three years.
00:31Five pregnancies.
00:33Five deaths.
00:35The Volf matriarch stood outside my chamber, her silhouette sharp against the moonlight,
00:40her presence as unyielding as the pack's loss.
00:43Elena, you are his mate.
00:45You cannot let the Alpha's bloodline end.
00:48Aldric is the Alpha King's kin, bearer of primordial wolf blood.
00:52His lineage must go on.
00:54So I suggested something no mate ever should, something that felt like tearing my own heart out.
00:59Let him take a consort.
01:01A strong She-Volf who can give him the air you need.
01:04Aldric froze.
01:05His hand, which had been resting on the hilt of his silver rune longsword, went rigid.
01:10The air in the chamber thickened, his Alpha aura swirling with barely contained rage, then exploded.
01:16His golden eyes turned feral bright, unhinged, the Volf within him roaring to break free.
01:22The wooden table splintered, the window shattered, and the walls shook under his wrath.
01:27But in the end, he still agreed.
01:29The Volf matriarch's demand.
01:31The weight of his Alpha duty won out.
01:34His voice hoarse, as if every word pained him.
01:36If she bears an air, mother, he said.
01:39Never speak of this again for the rest of your days.
01:42If she bears an air, mother, never speak of this again for the rest of your days.
01:47And I thought, I was the problem.
01:49My weak body.
01:50My inability to carry his pup.
01:53Was the reason our clan's lineage was at risk.
01:55My failure.
01:58The next day I went to the moonlight cloister alone.
02:01Its stone cloister rose high and gloomy, pale moonlight seeping through the dome, dying everything eerily silent.
02:09What should have been a place of prayer hung in the air with a strange scent pine resin mixed with
02:14faint trembling gasps.
02:16The sound was barely audible, yet carried a bone-melting magnetism.
02:20It was Aldrich's voice.
02:22The one I knew best.
02:23The voice he took after dark.
02:26My feet froze in place, my heart hammering so hard it threatened to shatter my ribs.
02:32I ducked instinctively into the shadow of a carved stone pillar.
02:36At the end of the corridor, moonlight painted two figures in shameless intimacy.
02:40Aldrich had his back to me.
02:42His shoulders tensed like a drawn bow.
02:44His eyes glint in pale gold, a sign that the werewolf within him had been roused to desire.
02:50Before him stood Sister Leah.
02:51Her neck tilted slightly upward, her wimple slipped off, long hair falling over her shoulders.
02:57She reached out, her fingertips gliding slowly and lightly across his tight collarbone.
03:03Pressing against his heaving chest, her voice soft as honey-drenched silk.
03:11To keep her bound to you, you have killed your own pup, with your own hands, five times.
03:17When you hold her at night, do you never think of the flesh and blood that died in her womb?
03:22Each word was a burning needle, piercing all my naivety.
03:26The air thickened with a forbidden mix of lust, blood, and wolfish scent.
03:33Every drop of blood in my veins turned to ice in that moment.
03:36Every drop of blood in my veins turned to ice in that moment.
03:40Aldrich suddenly clamped his hand around Leah's jaw, his grip nearly violent.
03:44Silence.
03:45His voice was no longer the gentle tone I knew, but hoarse, panting, dangerously rough.
03:51Breathe the word of this to her, and I will flay your skin, and feed you to the wolves.
03:56Far from fearing him, Leah leaned into him, lifting her hands to slowly loop around his neck.
04:02In the next breath, she slipped her nun's robe off one shoulder, the pale fabric sliding down.
04:08She rose on tiptoe, her lips nearly brushing his urlobe, her breath warm and sweet.
04:13Can you truly say you are not happier when you are with me?
04:17Aldrich's Adam's apple bobbed violently, his golden eyes blazing with bestial heat.
04:21He lowered his head, not a kiss, but a near-feral bite to her shoulder and neck, a muffled growl
04:27rumbling in his chest.
04:28Their gasps echoed loudly in the empty cloister, tangled and lingering, carrying a forbidden thrill sharp enough to tear.
04:35I stood frozen, cold to the bone, trembling in every limb.
04:42The truth struck me.
04:43I did not lose my children because I was weak.
04:45The man I loved had fed me silverweed potion with his own hands, again and again, strangling the life from
04:52our unborn babies.
04:54My tears stung cold by the wind.
04:58A cold wind swept through me.
05:02I fled in panic.
05:06When I returned to the castle, Aldrich held me gently in his arms, but all I could smell on him
05:12was the lingering lust and blood.
05:14Hidden in his eyes was a flicker of unease, and he spoke softly.
05:17Elena, I have chosen the official royal mistress.
05:18Leia is gentle.
05:22I looked at him and suddenly smiled.
05:24A smile of a heart turned to ash.
05:26Very well, I shall arrange the ceremony for you.
05:31I got up very early the next morning.
05:35I turned and fetched the warhawk my father had left me.
05:40I dipped the quill into ink and wrote one line on parchment.
05:43Father, I seek a divorce.
05:45Come take me home.
05:50Take me away from this nightmare.
05:52The warhawk spread its wings and soared through the clouds, toward the southern border.
05:57That night, old pain gnawed at my lower abdomen.
06:00Aldrich carried me back to bed, tucking the blanket carefully around me.
06:04His fingertips were cool as he brushed my cheek.
06:07Why so quiet again?
06:09I pressed my hand instinctively to my belly, a chill shooting up my spine.
06:13He sighed softly, his words light, like a meaningless comfort.
06:17Let it go, that child was never meant to be ours.
06:21A single careless sentence, asking me to erase five lives connected to my blood, lives he had personally destroyed.
06:28I lifted my gaze to him, my voice light as wind.
06:32Will we ever have another child?
06:34He paused, his golden eyes firm.
06:36Even if we never have heirs, I will only ever dote on you.
06:39In that moment, I understood completely.
06:42It was not that he could not have children, he just could not let me have them.
06:46I spoke calmly.
06:48Today I went to the moonlight dormistry.
06:50Aldrich's face stiffened, panic flashing across his features.
06:54Even now, he still lied to me.
06:56I dug my nails into my palm, forcing calm.
06:59I was there too, did we not cross paths?
07:01The place was crowded.
07:03We must have missed each other.
07:06As for the mistress, since it is decided, we shall prepare well.
07:11He relaxed.
07:16Not noticing that my heart had already died.
07:19That night, I spiked a high fever, burning hot all over.
07:24Aldrich panicked and was about to send for the physician when a servant hurried in.
07:29Someone from the monastery had come bearing his token.
07:31His face darkened.
07:33He stared sharply at the hooded figure bowing at the door.
07:37I shall return shortly.
07:38Wait for me, and I'll bring you the sweetest honey cakes.
07:42I lay on the bed, my mind foggy, but my gaze clear as a mirror.
07:46Beneath that monk's habit, the skin was snow-white and delicate.
07:50It was clearly Leah in disguise.
07:52I reached out and gently tugged his robe, my voice weak but steady.
07:56My alpha, let her come forward.
07:59The panic in Aldrich's eyes could no longer be hidden.
08:02He let out a cold laugh.
08:04You are disheveled now.
08:06To be seen like this would shame the prince's castle.
08:09Elena, you were raised on the border.
08:12You do not understand court etiquette.
08:14Do not be willful.
08:15His tone distant and cruel.
08:17A knife taken straight into my deepest wound.
08:20Once, I had felt inferior for not knowing court manners, but he had shielded me recklessly.
08:25Defying nobles for me.
08:26Throwing punches for me.
08:28Now, all that past affection and protection had turned into blades aimed at my heart.
08:33I lowered my eyes, obediently letting go.
08:35My voice so light it held no emotion.
08:38I was being thoughtless.
08:40Lena, fetch the lord his cloak.
08:42Yes, Melody.
08:42Aldrich sighed in relief and hurried off with Leah.
08:45I forced my burning body to stand and walked step by step to his study.
08:49It was a room I had decorated myself.
08:52He had once said everything in it was chosen by me.
08:55That no one else was allowed to touch it.
08:57Not even the cream he would do it himself.
08:59But now the study was in ruins.
09:02Silver ornaments and scrolls lay scattered across the dark wooden desk.
09:06The quill I had picked for him tossed carelessly in the corner, covered in dust.
09:11The air reaped of lust and false blood.
09:14The door was not fully closed.
09:16A crack revealed every shameful act inside.
09:19Shadows flickered dimly, the air thick with overwhelming desire.
09:23Leah's voice was soft and coiling.
09:25My alpha, you are so strong.
09:29Every gasp, deliberate provocation.
09:31And Aldrich, I had never seen him like this.
09:34The werewolf prince, gentle, restrained and cautious with me.
09:38Had cast off all pretense.
09:40His eyes burning with wild lust.
09:42His movements rough, predatory and intoxicated.
09:45No restraint.
09:47No tenderness.
09:48No care.
09:49A burning, mad passion I had never known.
09:52Leah tilted her face upward.
09:54Suddenly she lifted her gaze and met mine through the gap.
09:57She started, then curled her lips into a victorious, taunting smile, raising her voice deliberately.
10:04Aldrich, gently.
10:07Our child cannot bear rough handling.
10:10Child.
10:10So they had been lovers all along, already carrying a safe, crown-approved heir.
10:16And my children, only because I carried a secret others spoke of had to die in my womb.
10:21I could bear no more.
10:22I turned and ran, tears streaming down my face.
10:26That night, Aldrich did not return.
10:29I sat by candlelight all night writing the divorce papers.
10:32I folded the parchment and placed it inside an oak box.
10:36Gilded with iron edges.
10:38The wedding gift.
10:39He had given me with his own hands.
10:41If I ever anger you, write it down and put it here.
10:44I will check every day, and never fail you.
10:47I opened the box inside still lay the little wishes I had written as a young girl.
10:52It turned out he had not opened this box in a very, very long time.
10:55The vows of old had been crushed to dust by royal power and desire.
11:00The next morning I ate breakfast calmly.
11:02Near midday a maid rushed and pale with fear.
11:05My lady, your distant relatives have come to the manor.
11:08My heart tightened.
11:09The war hawk had been gone only one day.
11:11My father was far in the south.
11:13He could not have arrived so soon.
11:15I entered the great hall, and a crude vulgar air washed over me.
11:20A stout woman stood there, leading a pretty-faced girl with a frivolous gaze.
11:25Distant relativus, barely related to me by blood.
11:28The woman beamed greedily.
11:30Elena, I heard the prince is taking an official mistress, so I brought my daughter specially.
11:36She's strong and fertile.
11:38When she bears a child, it can be registered under your name.
11:42Your legitimate heir.
11:43My face darkened.
11:45The prince has chosen his mistress.
11:48I have no say in this.
11:50Leave.
11:52Oh, what does it matter?
11:54Let her serve the lord as a maid first.
11:57Given time, it will happen.
11:59You've miscarried five times.
12:01You'll probably never conceive again.
12:03Without a child, when the prince grows tired of you, how will you survive?
12:08The girl lifted her chin, her tone sharp as a blade.
12:11Sister cannot hold the lord's heart.
12:14Men, all prefer young, fresh things.
12:18Hatred surged within me.
12:20I raised my hand.
12:21And slept head hair haired.
12:22Across the face.
12:24How dare you hit me!
12:27The girl shrieked.
12:29She hits you!
12:30And so what?
12:31A deep male voice boomed suddenly, sweeping through the hall.
12:41Guards!
12:42Rip out her tongue.
12:43The other.
12:44Thirty flaps and cast out.
12:47Guards rushed forward.
12:48The mother and daughter turned ash on, screaming as they were dragged away.
12:52Aldrich immediately softened his rage, stepping quickly to take my hand, his tone tender with
12:58concern.
13:00Elena, are you alright?
13:01Were you frightened?
13:02He looked just like the man who had protected me for three years.
13:06But in the next breath, he led Leah forward from outside, his voice holding a hint of anticipation
13:11and joy.
13:14Elena?
13:15Meet the woman I have chosen as royal mistress.
13:19Leah.
13:21The last flicker of warmth in my heart died completely.
13:24I smiled faintly, calm and unruffled.
13:27Very well.
13:29I shall prepare the mistress in prestation ceremony.
13:33Leah curtsied first, her head bowed, but her eyes glinted with triumph.
13:38Thank you, sister.
13:40From now on, I shall serve the alpha and you well.
13:43I spoke lightly.
13:44The ceremony will be busy.
13:46I have invited the temple sisters to oversee it.
13:49I am unwell, so I shall not join the festivities.
13:52On that day, I would leave this cage forever with my father.
13:56Aldrich did not suspect a thing.
13:58Then you have a good rest.
13:59He turned away, Leah pulling his sleeve affectionately, and they left together.
14:03I closed my eyes, unwilling to look at them any longer.
14:07The ceremony was set for half a month later, on the night of the full moon.
14:11In the days that followed, he never came to me.
14:14The full moon rose, silver light covering the earth.
14:17Outside the castle, horns blared, torches snaked like dragons, and faint howls echoed.
14:24The grand ceremony of the prince installing his mistress.
14:27I stood at the courtyard gate, listening to the noise of the city, and smiled softly.
14:32My father's black warhorses waited outside.
14:35The carriage steady, holding no joy.
14:38I lifted my skirts and climbed aboard.
14:41Not looking back, the carriage slowly left the castle, but halted abruptly at the city gate.
14:48My lady, we have run into the prince's procession.
14:52I lifted the curtain.
14:54Aldrich stood in deep purple ceremonial robes, mounted on a white horse.
14:59At the sight of my father, he hastily dismounted and bowed respectfully.
15:03My father glanced at him coldly.
15:05The knightly guard exuded a clean aura.
15:08No one dared block the procession, and they stepped aside.
15:11In the instant the carriage passed him by, Aldrich's head snapped up.
15:14Our eyes met.
15:15He saw me dressed in plain white.
15:17My gaze calm.
15:19Resolute.
15:20Without sorrow or joy in that moment.
15:22The invincible werewolf prince turned pale as death.
15:26Terrifying panic crashed over him like a tidal wave.
15:28He finally understood.
15:30I was not throwing a tantrum.
15:32Not being petty.
15:33I was leaving him forever, never to return.
15:36Aldrich tore off his ceremonial robes like a madman.
15:39Leaped back onto his horse.
15:41And raced wildly towards the city gate.
15:47Duke, which way did the Duke go?
15:50They've already left the city.
15:52With fine horses, they must be tens of miles away by now.
15:58I arrived in a small southern town with my father.
16:01Far from royal power.
16:03There were no werewolves.
16:05No fear of the full moon.
16:07No shadow of silverweed potion.
16:09Multiple miscarriages and heartbreak had left me gravely ill.
16:13My face as pale as paper.
16:15My father took me to train and practice swordsmanship each morning at dawn.
16:20Winged and sun gradually restored my health in barely half a month.
16:23A clear young voice called out.
16:25Sister Elena!
16:26A figure leaped down from an apricot blossom branch.
16:29It was Kale, the merchant's son, an apprentice mercenary, and my father's new disciple.
16:35He smiled brightly.
16:36Like warm sunlight holding up a paper package.
16:39I brought you warm pastries.
16:40The pastries were still hot in my hand.
16:42But I saw a bright red burn mark on his chest.
16:46My chest tightened.
16:47You carried them against your chest?
16:49Doesn't it hurt?
16:51Not at all.
16:53Kale suddenly grew serious.
16:56Sister, when you're better, will you leave here?
17:00I asked softly.
17:01Why do you ask?
17:02My father said a man should build his career before marriage.
17:06When I become a true knight, I will ask master for your hand.
17:11Kale, I only think of you as a brother.
17:14I know.
17:15But a brother can become a man soon enough.
17:18I've liked you since the first time I saw you.
17:21You looked so sad back then, I didn't dare say anything.
17:25Now you smile so beautifully.
17:27I can't wait any longer.
17:29I was about to reply when a maid rushed over.
17:31My lady, it's terrible.
17:33Many men have surrounded the manor.
17:36Master says, don't escape the screw through the side gate at once.
17:40Kale immediately wrapped a cloak tightly around me and whispered.
17:43Before I could react, he lifted me in his arms.
17:46Forgive my boldness.
17:49Leader, tell master I've taken your sister to safety.
17:51You need not worry.
17:52Leaped onto an apricot tree and vaulted over the wall.
17:59But we could not escape him.
18:01A dark shadow flashed past.
18:03My neck went numb, and I lost consciousness.
18:07When I woke, I was in a sealed stone chamber.
18:10In dim lamplight, Aldrich stared at me without blinking.
18:13In only a few days, he had become haggard beyond recognition.
18:17Stubbled, robes wrinkled, golden eyes bloodshot, filled with near-mad obsession.
18:23When I opened my eyes, he grabbed my hand violently and pressed it to his lips.
18:27His voice rough as sandpaper.
18:29Elena, I finally found you.
18:33Do you know when I saw you smiling with that boy, I wanted to kill him?
18:39I pulled my hand away coldly.
18:40My voice was icy and calm.
18:42Your highness, we are divorced.
18:46Aldrich turned pale, shaking his head frantically.
18:49I never agreed.
18:50I burned the divorce papers.
18:53Elena, I know I was wrong.
18:56Come back with me, please.
18:58Back to be fed silverweed potion again?
19:00I looked at him, every word cutting to the bone.
19:03You already have an official mistress.
19:05A legitimate child on the way.
19:07Why torn me still?
19:10Leah.
19:12Leah.
19:13If you hate her, I will kill her right now!
19:17I do not hate Leah!
19:20I do not!
19:21I hate our five children.
19:24Children you murdered with your own hands.
19:27You know everything.
19:28My voice shook, but clear.
19:31I know everything.
19:32Aldrich trembled violently, as if struck by lightning.
19:35I know you added silverweed to my medicine every time.
19:38I know you watched me suffer and did nothing.
19:42He collapsed to his knees, his vault form nearly breaking free, tears pouring out in despair.
19:49I had no choice.
19:51You are not the Duke's biological daughter.
19:53You are the last princess of the fallen former dynasty.
19:59My brother may let you live, but he will never allow you to bear a child with former dynasty blood.
20:04If I did not kill the children, you would have died.
20:09I froze, as if thunderstruck.
20:11So I was not my father's real daughter.
20:14So I lost five children, not because I was weak.
20:18Not because he did not love me, but because of a birthright I did not even know I had.
20:25I looked at him, terrifyingly calm.
20:27So you knew I was the former dynasty princess.
20:30You knew we could never have children.
20:33You knew marrying me would only condemn me to miscarriage.
20:37After miscarriage.
20:39And you married me anyway.
20:41No, I'm doing this for us.
20:44For our love.
20:47Aldric, you did not protect me.
20:48You possessed me.
20:50All the pain in my life, you gave it to me.
20:53Kale burst through the door, slamming him to the ground.
20:55A dagger at his throat.
20:57The king has already decreed your divorce.
21:00You dare to touch me, boy?
21:01I'm a prince!
21:02To abduct Lady Elena is treason.
21:04Aldric's eyes widened, his face ashen.
21:08Just then, Leah rushed in, wearing rough cloth, her belly swollen.
21:12Before she could speak,
21:14Aldric, no!
21:16Aldric shoved her violently to the ground.
21:20A piercing scream.
21:22Blood gushed between her legs.
21:27Winding across the stone floor in a blinding red river,
21:30Leah struggled in agony.
21:32Reaching for help, but Aldric only stared at me with bloodshot, crazed eyes.
21:36And stamped his foot down hard on her back.
21:39If she dies,
21:41if this child dies,
21:44nothing will stand stand between us anymore.
21:47I stared at him coldly.
21:49Now you only dare c**t Kali a pregnant woman.
21:52I broke free from Kale,
21:54drew his sword,
21:55and pointed the tip at Aldric.
21:57Today we end this.
21:58His wolfish rage erupted.
22:00He roared and the lunge dot my gaze turned cold.
22:03I thrust the sword forward,
22:04the blade sinking into his right hand.
22:07His wolf claw fell limp.
22:09The sword clattered to the ground.
22:11Aldric knelt,
22:12clutching his bleeding hand,
22:13looking up at me with eyes empty and dead.
22:18Later,
22:19word spread throughout the kingdom
22:21that the prince had murdered his mistress and their unborn child.
22:24The king imprisoned him for life.
22:26On a full moon night,
22:28he dismissed all his guards and set fire to the castle.
22:32Among the ashes,
22:33people found a charred corpse.
22:35In its arms,
22:36it held tightly an oak box gilded with iron edges,
22:39burned black.
22:41As for me,
22:43in the south,
22:45life was gentle and calm.
