Short filmTranscript
00:07After waiting 10 long years for my husband, I discovered he'd built another family in secret.
00:15The second I chose to walk away, he drowned in desperate regret.
00:20The north wind, swirling with goose feather snow, beat against the ancient wolf clan's northern stronghold.
00:26I am a Loan, having guarded this frozen castle for 10 years, caring for my mother-in-law Lara Daly,
00:33believing I fulfilled my duty.
00:35My husband Kale, Vos clan heir, returned once a year, his gentle eyes never touching me.
00:41When I'm firm in Leora, I'll take you to a warm home.
00:46I believed him, giving him my youth, loyalty, and wolf's pure heart.
00:51On an especially cold winter night, snow sealed all the castle's exits, and even the fire in the fireplace seemed
00:58faint.
00:59I held a bowl of warm medicinal soup, wanting to tell Leora that Kale had sent word his return, would
01:05be delayed.
01:06But when I reached the door of her chamber, I stopped short.
01:09Mother, how long will you keep faking this wasting illness?
01:12I have no choice.
01:15Kale's heart has never belonged to Elwyn.
01:17His true mate is Serafina.
01:19They have secretly bonded and raised two pups far from the clan.
01:23I couldn't hear more.
01:24My blood froze.
01:25The betrayal sharper than the north wind.
01:28His promises and absence were lies.
01:30He had another home.
01:31My 10 years were a joke.
01:33Alara faked illness to trap me as a pawn.
01:35My wolf spirit whimpered, and I stumbled out into the snowstorm, overcome with despair.
01:41Just then, a familiar figure appeared before me, Eirik, the wolf clan guard who had silently protected me, since we
01:49were pups.
01:50Elevan, what's wrong?
01:52He reached out to help me, but hesitated, his fingers trembling slightly.
01:57Eirik, he lied to me.
01:59Everyone lied to me.
02:01I looked at him, and the grievances accumulated over 10 years finally burst forth.
02:07My voice hoarse.
02:08I've always been here.
02:10No matter when, I will be waiting for you.
02:15In the snowstorm, Eirik's figure stood tall.
02:18He cast aside his usual shyness.
02:20His tone firm and unyielding.
02:22Elowen, I know the pain in your heart.
02:25I don't dare ask you to forget him immediately, but, but I want to give you a home.
02:29One without lies, without betrayal.
02:32I will marry you.
02:33No grand ceremony, no clan blessings.
02:36I only want you.
02:37He hugged me tightly, and though snow fell on us, it could no longer freeze the warmth between us.
02:50I will bring you peace, I promise.
03:14His back resolute and firm, watching him leave, my heart finally lifted a heavy burden, and I felt light for
03:21the first time.
03:24After seeing Eirik off, I returned to the castle.
03:28The fire in the fireplace had been relit, and warmth filled the cold room.
03:32But this warmth was soon shattered by a cold figure.
03:35Kale stood at the door of my chamber.
03:37His alpha aura sharp as a blade.
03:39Elowen, I'm home.
03:41I lowered my eyes, suppressing the disgust in my heart, and bowed slightly.
03:46My lord, have you eaten?
03:47I will fetch you food.
03:49Kale frowned.
03:51He took a step forward.
03:53What's wrong with you?
03:54You're so cold.
03:56Have you heard any rumors?
03:57His fingertips carried the coldness of an alpha, and I instinctively stepped aside.
04:02My face still calm and composed.
04:04The north is remote.
04:05There are no rumors.
04:07I'm just a little unfamiliar with you, since we haven't seen each other in so long.
04:12I dared not reveal the truth.
04:14I still had to wait for Eirik to return.
04:16To break free from this cage.
04:18Now was not the time to tear our faces apart.
04:21Kale stared at me for a long time, as if judging the truth of my words.
04:26Kale's bruising grip dragged me into the chamber.
04:29His composure frayed.
04:31Elowen, I'm taking you to Leora, but there's something you must accept.
04:35My breath caught at the figure in shadows, a woman in blood-red silk, regal and icy,
04:40with two pups clinging to her skirts, their black fur and gold eyes matching Kale's.
04:45She turned a sharp sneer on her lips.
04:47You must be Elowen, the delusional fool who thought she could keep Kale.
04:52I'm Serafina, his true mate, and Vos Clan's future matriarch.
04:58Kale stumbled to Serafina's side, arms slung around her like a lifeline.
05:03Elowen, I'm sorry.
05:05Rogue wolves left me for dead.
05:10Serafina saved me.
05:12Come to Leora.
05:14I'll give you safety, dignity, anything but my heart.
05:21Children, say hello to your aunt, the one who thought she was your mother.
05:28I stifled my rage, forcing a docile smile.
05:31Very well.
05:32Leora's warmth might help mother.
05:35I'll go with you.
05:38You're too kind, Elowen.
05:40But Serafina's eyes narrowed.
05:42She saw through my act.
05:43But I have one condition.
05:45I'll pretend to be your adopted sister, but you must burn our bond scroll, the only tie
05:50between us.
05:52Burn it, and we're even.
05:54It meant something to you.
05:56Compared to your status and mate?
05:59Elowen practically threw herself at Kale, her voice shrill with urgency.
06:04Kale, agree to her.
06:05Do you want to lose your council seat?
06:07Do you want to shame the Vos Clan?
06:10Burn the scroll.
06:11She's not worth risking everything for.
06:14Kale's jaw clenched so tight I could see the muscle twitch.
06:17His eyes flicking between me and Serafina.
06:23Kale's jaw clenched so tight I could see the muscle twitch.
06:26His eyes flicking between me and Serafina.
06:28Finally, he wrenched the scroll from his tunic, a tattered piece of parchment that held ten
06:34years of lies, ten years of my devotion, and struck a match.
06:38Flames erupted, greedy and hungry, licking at the words that had once been my vow.
06:43I was free, free from his lies, free to claim the future that was mine.
06:48Nothing could stop me now.
06:50That afternoon, Serafina cornered me in the castle courtyard, her body blocking the sun,
06:56casting a shadow over me like a predator.
07:00You really thought Kale was saved by me?
07:03How naive.
07:05He fell for me the second he laid eyes on me.
07:07So desperate to have me he broke his betrothal to you.
07:11I will take everything away from you.
07:17I looked at Serafina's triumphant face.
07:20He fell for me the second he laid eyes on me.
07:23So desperate to have me he broke his betrothal to you.
07:26No desire to argue.
07:28I know.
07:29She frowned, as if not expecting this reaction, her mockery growing sharper.
07:34What?
07:34Hit a nerve so you don't even have the strength to argue?
07:37I don't need to argue.
07:39You're right.
07:40I will never win his heart, but I never wanted it anyway.
07:44I smiled and turned to leave, watching my calm retreating figure.
07:49Serafina's face darkened.
07:51The day they left, a hint of early spring warmth in the air.
07:55I took off the moonstone hairpin Alera had given me.
07:58A family heirloom meant for the true mate of the boss alpha.
08:02This belongs to the alphas' chosen partner.
08:05Now, it's yours.
08:07Serafina's eyes lit up with surprise.
08:10You're smart to give it up.
08:12Please return the small leather pouch my mother made you.
08:15It's a token of my bloodline and it doesn't belong with you.
08:19Wait for me.
08:20I will come for you in spring.
08:23I walked away without looking back.
08:27Watching Kale's carriage fade into the distance, I immediately picked up my packed satchel and
08:32turned north toward the border.
08:34The road in the north was still harsh, snow still unmelting, wind still biting, but I felt
08:41full of strength.
08:42I was a wolf woman longing for freedom and true love, determined to find my beloved, and
08:47start a new life.
08:49Along the way, I worked in taverns to earn food and travel money, hurrying day and night,
08:54eager to see Eirik as soon as possible.
08:57Days passed, and the warmth of early spring grew stronger.
09:00I finally reached the border fortress.
09:03That night, the innkeeper raised his glass in celebration.
09:06We won!
09:08Our warriors won!
09:09The great General Valder Stormclav led us to defeat the rogue wolves.
09:14They'll be home soon.
09:15Lady, go to the capital fortress.
09:18Your warrior is waiting for you.
09:20You can find him at the capital fortress.
09:22Eirik was alive.
09:23He had one.
09:24I immediately hired a carriage, rushing to the capital fortress.
09:29My heart filled with anticipation and nervousness.
09:32When I arrived at the capital fortress, I found the fortress captain.
09:36Please tell Eirik that I'm waiting for him at the eastern lodgings.
09:40When the captain heard Eirik's name, his eyes widened in surprise.
09:45Your Lord Eirik's fiancée?
09:50Your Lord Eirik's fiancée?
09:53My apologies.
09:54Lord Eirik is no ordinary guard.
09:56He is General Valder's adopted son, and the hero of the border war.
10:01He defeated the rogue alpha leader single-handedly.
10:04I froze, my mind going blank.
10:06The ordinary guard, who had silently protected me, was now a war hero.
10:11Overwhelming joy welled up, and tears nearly spilled from my eyes.
10:15I stayed at the eastern lodgings, waiting anxiously for Eirik.
10:19But the first person to find me was Kale.
10:22That afternoon, a carriage stopped abruptly at the door, and Kale stormed in.
10:29I came back for you, and you were gone!
10:34How dare you run away!
10:36His voice filled with rage and resentment.
10:39Kale, our bond is ash.
10:41I am no longer yours.
10:43My future is my own.
10:45His eyes wild, his alpha aura nearly suffocating the room.
10:50Kale's face turned even darker.
10:52He stared at me, his tone threatening.
10:54You promised to come to Lyra with me!
10:56You can't go back on your word!
11:00You promised to be loyal to me, to give me a home.
11:03And you broke that promise.
11:05We're even.
11:06Elvin, I know I was wrong.
11:08I shouldn't have lied to you, shouldn't have betrayed you.
11:10Come back to me!
11:12And his tone softened, filled with pleading, Elowen.
11:16I'll make you my equal mate.
11:18Serafina won't be above you.
11:19I'll give you everything you want.
11:21No need.
11:21His eyes filled with panic and guilt.
11:25Serafina told me the truth.
11:27There was no rogue wolf attack, no life-saving debt.
11:30You chose her from the start.
11:33You lied to me, trapped me.
11:35All for your status and glory.
11:39And I'm engaged.
11:40To a warrior.
11:42He's kind, he honors me.
11:44Unlike you.
11:46Who only knows how to lie and use people.
11:50Kale let out a roar of anger, shaking the walls.
11:54A common soldier?
11:56You'd choose a nobody over an alpha counselor?
11:59He can't protect you, can't give you status.
12:01He can't give you anything!
12:04Status was never what I wanted.
12:07I didn't marry you for your status, and I don't choose him for glory.
12:11I just want sincerity.
12:13Love without lies.
12:14And you never gave me that.
12:16Very well.
12:16If you're so stubborn, I'll go to General Valdir.
12:19I'll have that soldier reassigned.
12:21I'll buy him off.
12:22Make him leave you forever!
12:23When I heard he would hurt Eirik, my eyes turned red instantly.
12:29Kale, touch him, and I'll die.
12:33Think about it.
12:34An alpha counselor who drives his ex-mate to suicide?
12:38If the Pact hears about this, if the Wolf King hears about this, do you think you'll keep your status?
12:44The Pact will destroy you.
12:46Kale froze.
12:47Elivan, don't be foolish.
12:49Put the dagger down.
12:50I won't touch him.
12:51I'll do nothing.
12:52Just don't hurt yourself.
12:55Just then, a loud, warm laugh boomed from the door, breaking the tense atmosphere.
13:01Lord Kale, what a pleasant surprise to see you here.
13:04We turned at the same time, and a tall wolf warrior strode in, clad in silver armor, with silver black
13:10wolf fur, his eyes majestic and powerful.
13:13It was General Valdir Stormclaw.
13:15The most feared warrior in the Wolf Pact.
13:18When Kale saw Valdir, his face turned pale.
13:21He quickly hid his anger and bowed respectfully.
13:24General, I'm here to find my adopted sister, Elvin.
13:27Valdir laughed heartily, patting Kale on the shoulder.
13:31His tone filled with pride.
13:33I'm here to propose to her on behalf of my adopted son, the hero, Erik Stormclaw.
13:38He is the hero of the Border War.
13:42Kale's eyes widened in disbelief.
13:44Your adopted son?
13:47Valdir nodded, proud.
13:48Erik Stormclaw.
13:50He is the hero of the Border War.
13:52And he refused all rewards except one, a royal decree to marry Elowen.
13:56So he can claim her honorably.
13:58My heart was filled with joy, and tears finally streamed down my face.
14:02Happy tears.
14:03Tears of relief.
14:05Kale stumbled back, his face turning from pale to ashen.
14:08He looked at Valdir, his voice trembling.
14:12A royal decree?
14:13Yes.
14:14The betrothal is official.
14:16Legally binding.
14:19Valdir took a sealed scroll from his arms, handing it to me.
14:25You are Erik's fiancée, future lady of Stormclaw.
14:29Kale looked at the scroll, then at me, his eyes filled with despair and regret.
14:34He knew he had lost me completely, and not only me, but also the chance to keep his status.
14:39For he had offended General Valdir.
14:41I looked at him, feeling no emotion, only complete freedom.
14:45After Kale fled in despair and General Valdir left, to arrange our betrothal details,
14:51Eirik finally appeared at the eastern lodgings.
14:53His armor was still dusty from the battlefield, but his eyes were softer than ever as he walked
14:58toward me, kneeling gently in front of me and taking my hands in his.
15:03I'm sorry I kept you waiting so long.
15:06Elevan, I'm sorry I kept you waiting so long.
15:09He whispered.
15:10His thumbs brushing the back of my hands.
15:12I shook my head, tears still glistening in my eyes.
15:16You're here, that's all that matters.
15:18He smiled, but there was a hint of shyness in his golden eyes,
15:22as if he was summoning the courage to say something important.
15:25There's something I've never told you.
15:27He said, his voice low and earnest.
15:30I've loved you long before you ever turned to me in that snowstorm.
15:34Snowstorm, when we were pups, I was thin and weak, smaller than all the other wolf cubs.
15:39They mocked me, pushed me around, called me a coward for not being able to shift properly.
15:45I would hide in the woods, crying.
15:48And one day, you found me.
15:50He paused, his grip tightening slightly, as if reliving that distant memory.
15:55You were only a little older than me, but you stood in front of those cubs,
16:00baring your small fangs and shouting, that no one could hurt me.
16:03You chased them away, then sat with me, sharing your favorite honey cake,
16:08and telling me I would grow strong one day.
16:10That day, I swore I would spend my life protecting you, even if you never noticed me.
16:16My heart skipped a beat, memories flooding back, a faint image of a small, trembling boy
16:21with matted fur, and me standing between him and the taunting cubs.
16:25I had long forgotten that moment, but it had stayed with him, shaping his devotion, the
16:31motion, because I was afraid.
16:34Afraid you would laugh at me, afraid I was too weak to deserve you.
16:37When you married Kale, I wanted to beg you to run with me.
16:43So I stayed, silently guarding you, waiting for the day you might see me.
16:48Not just as a guard, but as someone who would love you with all his heart.
16:52I leaned forward, wrapping my arms around him, tears falling onto his armor.
16:58I see you now, Irak.
17:00I've always seen you, I just didn't know how to look.
17:04News of Kale's betrayal, his lies to his mate, and his clan, soon reached the Wolf King's
17:10ears.
17:11As the supreme ruler of the Wolf Pact, the Wolf King valued loyalty and duty above all.
17:16Learning that Kale had faked the truth, imprisoned Alowen, and secretly bonded with Serafina to
17:22raise Pop, all for his own status, enraged him, he immediately summoned the Wolf Pact Council,
17:28ordering Kale, Serafina, and Alera to appear.
17:32He publicly condemned Kale's actions, accusing him of breaking the Wolf Clan's oath, defiling
17:37the honor of an alpha, and hurting an innocent mate.
17:41Serafina tried to defend herself, but the Wolf King silenced her harshly, and Alera trembled
17:47with fear, unable to lift her head, I am the council.
17:50All councillors can-
17:51I've always been in positions, but the first of those counts.
17:56Please, spare my life.
17:58Let me keep my position.
18:00But the Wolf King's mind was made up.
18:03He looked at Kale, his tone majestic and cold.
18:07Kale Vos, you have betrayed your original intention, your mate, and your clan.
18:11Your crimes are unforgivable.
18:13Out of respect for your past service to the Pact, I will not sentence you to death.
18:17But from this day on, you are stripped of Alford inheritance, and your council will be
18:21exiled to the northern wastelands, never to return to Lyora, never to set foot in any
18:25Wolf Clan stronghold again.
18:27You two will pay for your deception.
18:31As soon as he finished speaking, two guards stepped forward, lifting the limp Kale and
18:37dragging him away.
18:38His wails faded into the distance.
18:40I followed Valder and Irek to Lyora, to prepare for our mating ceremony.
18:45Serafina, having lost all her power, was still unwilling to give up.
18:49She pretended to help me with my wedding dress, but secretly made things difficult for me, hoping
18:54to make me look foolish and drive me away from Lyora.
18:56Alera with Kale exiled and her status gone.
18:59Lost all her pride.
19:00She moped all day, sighing in front of Kale's empty room.
19:03Only I was calm.
19:04My heart filled with hope for the future.
19:07One day, I overheard Alera and Serafina arguing in the corridor.
19:10Alera shouted at Serafina.
19:12It's all your fault!
19:14You ruined Kale!
19:16Ruin the Vos Clan!
19:17You don't love Kale at all!
19:19You only love yourself!
19:21It's all your fault!
19:22You ruined Kale.
19:24Ruined the Vos Clan.
19:25You don't love Kale at all.
19:28Blame me!
19:29Blame Kale!
19:30He was greedy, wanting both his status and me!
19:33And this is the result!
19:37But he once had a mate who loved him, who took care of him, who gave him everything.
19:41Alondan waited ten years for him, took care of me, gave him her all, but he left her
19:45in the north, lied to her, hurt her.
19:46Now he's exiled and we have nothing.
19:48This is retribution!
19:49No, I was wrong!
19:50I really do!
19:54Their regret has nothing to do with me.
20:07On the day of our wedding, soft moonlight flooded every corner of the ancient castle, bathing
20:13the stone halls in a gentle silvery glow.
20:15I wore a long white wool gown embroidered, with delicate silver thread, my first true mating
20:21dress.
20:21Elegantly simple yet solemnly sacred, fitting for the union we were about to make.
20:26Eirik stood quietly beside me, his frame still marked, with faint scars from the harsh border
20:32wars.
20:33And I'll give you all the happiness.
20:34His gaze warm and tender, may the moon bless your union and may your hearts remain devoted
20:40forever.
20:41We swore our eternal vows beneath the full moon, sealed our sacred bond, and humbly accepted
20:45the sincere blessings of the entire clan.
20:48General Valder stood not far away, his face soft with unreserved relief and genuine joy,
20:53witnessing our union with pride.
20:55Finally, we are together.
20:57And I'll give you all the happiness in the world.
20:59Holding fast to one another under the quiet moon, in that timeless, peaceful moment, I
21:04knew with all my soul, that I had at last found my long-awaited happiness.
21:08After the wedding, Eirik and I did not linger in Leora, a place heavy with old lies and constant
21:13scheming.
21:14We chose instead to return to the quiet border fortress.
21:17With you here, every day is happy.
21:19The warrior's loyal and straightforward, and the peaceful, uncomplicated life we had long
21:24dreamed of.
21:25Eirik cherished me deeply, showering me with all the security and warmth my heart could
21:30desire, tending to my needs with gentle meticulousness each day.
21:33Before long, we were blessed with two healthy little pups, a pair of twins, one son and one
21:39daughter.
21:40They bore Eirik's striking features, their eyes clear, bright, and full of innocent light.
21:46Each day, I laughed and played with the pup.
21:48Thank you, my love.
21:49With you, I'll never feel cold.
21:52Settling into a simple, quiet, and utterly happy life.
21:56Since then, I occasionally heard scattered news trickling in from Leora.
22:00It was said that Kale, exiled to the bitter northern wastelands, lived a cold and miserable
22:06existence.
22:07The barren lands were harsh and unforgiving, teeming with savage rogue wolves.
22:11Having lost his alpha power and all his former glory, he could only struggle desperately to
22:16survive in endless despair.
22:18No longer the proud, overbearing man he had once been.
22:21As for Serafina, stripped of all her status and privilege, she had to take menial odd
22:27jobs to scrape by.
22:28Her former arrogance and vanity vanished completely.
22:31She eventually married an ordinary wolf warrior, and drifted through a muddled, unremarkable
22:37life.
22:37Leora, worn down by long-term depression, and the lingering after-
22:42Why did I let you go?
22:44...with each passing day, until she finally passed away alone.
22:48Her heart filled with sorrow and regret.
22:51Hearing this news, I felt no sympathy, not even a flicker of extra emotion.
22:56Their fates were entirely of their own making.
22:59Their twisted greed and cruel betrayal, had directly led to their tragic ends.
23:03As for me, I had long let go of the dark past, wholeheartedly embracing the peaceful
23:09happiness that rightfully belonged to me.
23:11In the quiet evening, I sat comfortably by the warm fireplace, carefully sewing sturdy
23:17fur boots for Eirik, while our two lively pups chased each other, and played softly at
23:22my feet.
23:23My beloved mate gently wrapped his strong arms around me from behind, his warm breath brushing
23:28gently against my hair.
23:30Rest a while, my love.
23:32Carrying our new pup is already tiring enough, don't push yourself too hard.
23:36I lifted my head and smiled softly at him, my wolf spirit finally feeling truly at peace
23:41and at home.
23:42I am your mate.
23:44This is exactly where I was meant to be.
