00:24Don't touch me.
00:30And every single person who let this happen, the Alpha Air, the Luna, and the High Alpha himself, they all
00:36knew. They knew, and not one of them lifted a hand to stop it. They thought I was a weak
00:41mother. They forgot who I was. I'm the War Alpha.
00:46At the gates of the royal stronghold, I finally came home. A decade ago, I left my six-year-old
00:52daughter behind and marched to war to preserve the peace of our pack.
00:55Now, after all that time, I was back. My eyes swept through the crowd, searching for her.
01:01In my memory, Aurora was still soft and warm, smelling like honeysuckle and warm milk.
01:05Every morning, her small, chubby fists would grab fistfuls of my hair. She should have been 16 now.
01:12My chest ached at the thought of holding her again. High Alpha Aldrich stood on the platform with the pack
01:17council waiting for me.
01:18The Greyholt family stood behind him. My mate, Dominic. His mother, Helena. His sister, Margo.
01:26All of them were dressed like this was some grand celebration.
01:29I studied every face. My wolf paced hard inside me. Something was wrong. Aurora wasn't there.
01:36Everyone else had come. Everyone but my daughter.
01:39Aldrich started his welcome speech. I cut him off.
01:43Where's my daughter?
01:44His smile locked in place. Then I caught it. That flicker in his eyes.
01:48Then I caught it. That flicker in his eyes. My stomach dropped.
01:52I'd spent 10 years reading enemy faces on battlefields. I knew what guilt looked like.
01:57Watch your tongue, Raven.
01:59You're in the presence of the High Alpha now. Show some respect.
02:02Dominic snapped.
02:04Dominic. My fated mate.
02:06I kept our mate bond intact for Aurora so she could grow up with her father.
02:10The year Aurora was born, he brought his chosen mate into my pack.
02:14His own cousin, Vivian, gave him a daughter too, Celeste.
02:18I swallowed all of it.
02:20For my daughter, I endured every humiliation, every betrayal.
02:24I gave that man my lands, my warriors, and even my pride.
02:28Everything.
02:29And people in this kingdom still thought one word from him would tame me.
02:33I asked you a question, Dominic.
02:35Where is my daughter?
02:37He opened his mouth, ready to put me in my place, and then a woman came crashing out of
02:42the crowd.
02:42There was dried blood all over her arms and streaked down her neck.
02:46Luna!
02:47Praise the moon you're back!
02:49Please!
02:50They're killing her!
02:51You have to save Aurora!
02:55Nettie was Aurora's caretaker.
02:57I chose her myself, because the first time she held Aurora, my baby fell asleep in less than
03:02five minutes.
03:03She was the gentlest she-wolf I had ever met.
03:05Now the woman in front of me was skin and bones, starved down to nothing, her face so
03:10badly beaten I almost didn't recognize her.
03:13My wolf slammed against my ribs.
03:15A growl ripped out of my throat.
03:17That mutt is a traitor!
03:18Execute her on the spot!
03:20Lucien Volcrest.
03:21I was the one who arranged his match with Aurora.
03:24That marriage was the reason his mother, Isolde, became the Luna, and the reason he became
03:28the Alpha Heir.
03:29Everything they had came from me and from my daughter.
03:32And now he was standing there, ordering my daughter's caretaker to die.
03:35The enforcers closed in on Nettie, baring their fangs.
03:40Touch her, and I'll rip your fucking arms from their sockets.
03:43She belongs to me.
03:44Two-thirds of this kingdom's army was the Ashburn War Pack.
03:47My war wolves.
03:49If I turned on the crown, this kingdom would not survive the night.
03:52Everybody knew it.
03:54The warriors froze.
03:56I said kill her!
03:58Try me.
03:58A pulse of power surged through the pack link.
04:012,000 wolves stepped forward as one.
04:03The warriors stumbled back.
04:07That's enough.
04:09The boy spoke out of turn.
04:11Hand the woman over to Ravenna.
04:14She is, after all, our war alpha.
04:17I knew exactly what he was doing.
04:20Using his son to test me, to see whether I would still lower my head and fall in line.
04:24I didn't have time for his games.
04:26Nettie collapsed at my feet.
04:28So weak she could barely get the words out.
04:30Your daughter is dying.
04:32She's at Lord Fenwick's estate.
04:35If you don't go now, you won't see her again.
04:39Go!
04:40One thought kept pounding in my head.
04:42My baby is dying.
04:45Who the hell is Fenwick?
04:46He didn't exist when I left.
04:48Enough of this scene, Ravenna.
04:50You will return to the Manon with me.
04:52Now.
04:52The whole square went dead silent.
04:54Every wolf turned to look at me.
04:56Nettie grabbed my hand so hard her nails cut my skin.
04:59She was shaking all over.
05:01They remembered the woman who used to give in every time Dominic spoke.
05:05They were waiting to see if I'd do it again.
05:07Alpha, kill me if you want.
05:09I don't care.
05:10But go now.
05:12Please.
05:13If you wait much longer, you'll never see her alive again.
05:17The goddess is calling her home.
05:19Go!
05:20Before she's gone forever!
05:21I saw the fear in her eyes.
05:24She was afraid I would do what I had always done.
05:26Choose Dominic over my own flesh and blood.
05:29Ashworn Wallpack to the Fenwick Estate.
05:31Anyone who stands in our way, shred them to pieces.
05:35Dominic stepped in front of my horse.
05:38Ravenna, you can't...
05:39My boot smashed into his face.
05:41He hit the ground hard, blood pouring out of his nose.
05:45If anything happens to Aurora, every last one of you dies!
05:50Then I tore out of the square, with 2,000 wolves pouring behind me like a breaking wave.
05:55Nettie led me into the High District, to a walled estate tucked behind iron gates.
05:59A servant at the entrance saw her and gave a cold little laugh.
06:02Back again?
06:04The Greyholtz don't give a damn about your little slut.
06:06They're the ones who sent her to Lord Fenwick's bed.
06:09He never got to finish.
06:11My fist shook his jaw.
06:12My wolves flooded through the estate.
06:14Nettie led me around to the back courtyard.
06:17The place was falling apart, rotted boards, a door hanging crooked on its hinges.
06:21Before I even touched it, the smell hit me.
06:24Rot.
06:25Blood.
06:26Something foul enough to turn the air solid.
06:28I shoved the door open.
06:30A girl lay on a wooden plank, covered with nothing but a few filthy rags.
06:35Scars from glowing coals crawled across her chest.
06:38Both her nipples had been torn off.
06:40The flesh between her legs was black and rotting.
06:42Her eyes were open, fixed on the ceiling, empty.
06:45If her chest hadn't still been rising, I would have thought she was already dead.
06:50Aurora.
06:52Aurora!
06:54My whole body started shaking.
06:56My hands shook so hard my sword slipped free and clanged to the floor.
06:59Nettie dropped beside the bed, crying so hard she could barely breathe.
07:03Baby, your mom is here.
07:04She came back.
07:05She's taking you away from this nightmare.
07:07Please, just look at her face.
07:09You said you missed her, remember?
07:11She's right here beside you.
07:13Open your eyes.
07:14Please, baby.
07:15Don't leave her like this.
07:17Aurora didn't move.
07:18She didn't even blink.
07:19She just stared at the ceiling like she couldn't hear a single word we said.
07:23My wolf was howling.
07:25The pain struck so hard that blood surged at my throat and poured from my lips.
07:28I couldn't stop it.
07:30Every wolf outside heard it.
07:31Alpha!
07:32General!
07:33I lifted one hand.
07:35Every voice vanished.
07:36I dropped to my knees beside the bed and reached for her face.
07:39My fingers were shaking.
07:41I hadn't even touched her yet when she flinched and crushed herself against the wall.
07:45No!
07:45No more!
07:46Please!
07:47Stay away!
07:48More blood filled my mouth.
07:50I forced myself to swallow it down.
07:52Then a voice cut across the courtyard.
07:54Old!
07:55Arrogant!
07:56Which of you mongrels dare trespass upon my lands?
07:59The second Aurora heard that voice, she started shaking even harder.
08:03Her body jerked.
08:05Then she started seizing, spasming all over.
08:07Don't touch me!
08:08Help!
08:08Mom!
08:09Mom!
08:10Help!
08:10The second she called for me, I answered.
08:13I reached for her, trying to pull her into my arms.
08:16But the moment I touched her, she shoved herself harder into the wall as though she meant to sink
08:20through the stone itself.
08:22Her empty eyes filled with tears.
08:23And she stared at the door, terrified.
08:28Nettie, wrap her in my furs.
08:30Keep her warm.
08:30Yeah.
08:31Then I picked up my sword and walked outside.
08:34Fenwick was out in the courtyard, screaming at my wolf.
08:37He had white hair, a swollen gut, and a cluster of young she-wolves gathered around him,
08:42dressed in little more than sheer rags.
08:44He was shouting, his hands roaming freely over their bodies.
08:47Those girls wore the same look Aurora had.
08:49Empty.
08:50Hollowed out.
08:51I looked at them and could almost see my daughter.
08:53Aurora in thin fabric.
08:55Aurora with his hands on her.
08:57Who the hell are you?
08:58How dare you bring warriors onto my state?
09:01Do you have any idea who I am?
09:04I am kin to the high alpha.
09:08Dominic Greyholt is my blood.
09:10You touch me and the entire council will have your head.
09:14The grandfather of the alpha heir's mate, Dominic Greyholt's father-in-law.
09:19They knew.
09:19Every last one of them knew.
09:21He didn't get another word out.
09:23I shifted.
09:24My jaws tore straight through his throat.
09:26I ripped open his chest.
09:28His stomach.
09:29Everything that held that wretched body together.
09:31His guts spilled across the courtyard.
09:33I shredded him until there was nothing left you could even recognize as a man.
09:37Just blood.
09:38Meat.
09:39And a severed head rolling to a stop by my feet.
09:41I shifted back and turned to the others.
09:44Gather what little you have.
09:46We're going to Greyholt Manor.
09:47I left with the girls.
09:49No one else did.
09:50I wrapped Aurora in my war cloak and carried her outside.
09:53She weighed almost nothing.
09:54Her heartbeat trembled against my chest.
09:56Faint and faltering.
09:58As though it might give out at any moment.
09:59We rode hard for Greyholt Manor.
10:02My manor.
10:03The gates were shut.
10:04Two Omegas stood outside.
10:06The first one raised his chin.
10:08Lady Elena and Councilman Greyholt ordered you to kneel at this gate until morning for
10:11disgracing the pack's honor.
10:13That girl isn't allowed inside.
10:14She belongs to her mate.
10:16You are not bringing her in here.
10:18I called Aurora when she was a baby.
10:19They had chased Aurora through the grass when she ran after butterflies.
10:23They were the men who let her tug on their capes and mess up their hair.
10:26The child who treated 2,000 killers like her own family.
10:29And they had stood in that cell and seen what had been done to her.
10:32These wolves did not cry on the battlefield.
10:34Now every eye behind me was red.
10:36Alpha.
10:37Just give us the word.
10:39Let us rip this place down.
10:41For our little Luna's justice.
10:45Surround the manor.
10:46Everyone inside dies.
10:50The servants went white and started screaming.
10:52Pounding on the gates with both fists.
10:54The doors hadn't even opened yet before my wolves tore their heads off.
10:57I looked up at the crest.
10:59Greyholt Manor.
11:01Then I drove my boot into it and cracked it clean in two.
11:03I carried Aurora through the gate.
11:05The second I stepped inside, I froze.
11:08Wisteria.
11:09Everywhere.
11:10Thick purple clusters hung from every post.
11:12Spilling over the old sparring ring.
11:14The pollen hung so thick in the air it stung my eyes.
11:17Aurora was badly allergic to pollen.
11:19One bad attack could close her throat until she couldn't breathe.
11:23She almost died from it the year she was born.
11:25After that, I gave one order.
11:27No flowers anywhere on this estate.
11:29Anyone who disobeyed would die.
11:31I pulled my cloak tighter around Aurora, covering her mouth and nose, and moved fast under the trellis.
11:37If Aurora breathed this in, she could die.
11:39They know that.
11:39How the hell could they do this?
11:41Living in my house.
11:43Eating my food.
11:44Wearing my jewelry.
11:45And planting the very thing that could kill my daughter inside her own home.
11:48Cut it all down.
11:50Every last piece.
11:51My wolves moved at once.
11:53Halt!
11:54Lay a finger on these blues, and you'll answer to my brother!
11:57The scream came from across the courtyard.
12:00Margot Greyholt.
12:01Dominic's sister.
12:02She stormed toward us.
12:04Gary carved into every line of her face.
12:06Dominic built this garden for his true mate.
12:09This garden cost him a fortune in gold.
12:11Don't you dare ruin it!
12:13His chosen mate.
12:14To make that woman happy, Dominic filled my estate with the one thing that could kill my daughter.
12:19Margot saw Aurora in my arms and instantly pressed a handkerchief over her nose.
12:23The disgust in her face, like my daughter, was a rotting piece of trash.
12:27Mother and my brother were perfectly clear.
12:29That brat is banned from these grounds.
12:33She belongs to Fenwick now.
12:35Even if she dies over there, that has nothing to do with us.
12:38You need to get on your knees and apologize to the Alpha here.
12:41She poisoned the here and Salelta, then ran off with her lover.
12:45His grace showed mercy by not punishing her.
12:48But if it were up to me, I would have beaten her to death and fed her body to the
12:52rogues!
12:52I slapped her.
12:54She crashed to the ground, blood and two teeth scattering across the stone.
12:58You hit me?
13:00When Lucien finds out!
13:02I drove my foot into her chest.
13:04She flew backward and slammed into one of the trellis posts.
13:07Blood burst out of her mouth.
13:09And for the first time, fear crawled into her eyes.
13:12I planted my boot on her chest and looked down at her.
13:14This is Ashburn Manor.
13:16I was a damn fool for ever letting your family move in.
13:19Aurora's pollen allergy can kill her.
13:21Everyone in this house knows that.
13:22Your brother planted a whole garden for his chosen mate.
13:25My daughter could die and he didn't care.
13:28I left Aurora with all of you.
13:30Every one of you swore before the moon goddess that you would protect her.
13:33You broke that oath.
13:35Now I'm collecting.
13:37She clawed at my boot, nearly choking.
13:39Mercy, Robinane!
13:40She wheezed.
13:41Please, it wasn't my choice.
13:44You held me.
13:45You bathed me.
13:46Remember?
13:47I'm your girl.
13:48You're little Margo.
13:50You can't kill me.
13:51You loved me once.
13:53Please!
13:54Something twisted hard in my chest.
13:56On one thing, she wasn't lying.
13:58I did raise her.
14:00After Helena gave birth, she was too weak to care for the baby.
14:03I fed Margo, bathed her, held her when she cried.
14:06She was one year older than Aurora.
14:09The two of them had grown up side by side.
14:11Aurora used to follow her everywhere, always pressing her finest treasures into her hands,
14:16calling her Mar in that small, soft voice.
14:18And Margo stood there and watched them destroy her.
14:21I fed you from my own hand.
14:23I loved you as my own blood.
14:25And in return, you helped them slaughter my child.
14:29Then I put all my weight down one last time.
14:32Crack.
14:32Her begging stopped.
14:34One hand was still clutching my boot.
14:36Her eyes stayed open even after she stopped breathing.
14:39I looked at her for one second.
14:41That face I had watched grow up.
14:43Then I stepped away.
14:44A screen tore across the courtyard.
14:49Margo!
14:50My Margo!
14:52It was Helena, Dominic's mother.
14:54She was here too.
14:55Right then, Aurora moved in Nettie's arms.
14:58Her voice drifted across.
15:00Mom?
15:00I went straight to her.
15:02Nettie had my war cloak wrapped tight around her.
15:04Aurora's eyes were open, still empty.
15:07But this time, she was looking at me.
15:10I knelt beside her.
15:11I was so close, but I could barely smell anything on her.
15:15Just the faintest trace of honeysuckle.
15:17So faint I almost thought I imagined it.
15:20There was no time to think about that.
15:23Helena threw herself over Margo's body.
15:25Margo!
15:26My Margo!
15:27Her screams ripped through the yard.
15:30Then she lifted her head and looked at me.
15:32Ravena!
15:33You rat!
15:34You killed her!
15:35I will see you rot in the abyss!
15:37I will bury you and that little rock in the same filth as my daughter!
15:42Inside, Aurora heard Helena's voice.
15:45She pressed herself into Nettie's arms and began to murmur, lost in some waking nightmare.
15:49Grandmother, please.
15:51I didn't steal them.
15:53I just wanted my mother.
15:55The letters were for her.
15:56Only for her.
15:57My blood ran cold.
15:58Grandma!
15:59The pond is so cold, there's ice on it!
16:03I didn't push Priscilla's face!
16:05She dragged me down with her!
16:06Please let me out!
16:07I can't take it anymore!
16:09My hands started shaking.
16:11Grandma, I didn't drug my sister in the alpha here.
16:14I walked in on them together in Mother's chamber.
16:17Grandma, I don't have a lover.
16:19It's a setup.
16:20It's not like what they said.
16:21You can't make me hurt!
16:22The whip was soaked in salt water.
16:24I stood there listening as Aurora begged through one horror after another, and my legs almost
16:29gave out under me.
16:30What the hell had they done to her all these years?
16:33Raveena!
16:34Go to hell!
16:35Helena shrieked, rushing at me with a dagger.
16:38I twisted aside and kicked Helena to the ground.
16:41She clawed her way back up, spitting blood, glaring at me like I wronged her.
16:45You dare defy me?
16:46You dare strike your matriarch?
16:48I am your mate's mother, you ungrateful cur!
16:51You should die to pay for Margaret's life!
16:53I'm the only reason you were allowed to keep the Greyhill name!
16:56Otherwise, Dominic would sever your mate bond today and throw you out of the pack!
17:01Aurora's voice carried from inside again, raw and terrified.
17:04Mom, save me.
17:06I'm so scared of Grandma.
17:08It hurts.
17:09I don't want to die.
17:10Mom, you can't die either.
17:12She was terrified.
17:13Terrified I would do what I had always done before, give in for Dominic's sake and accept Helena's terms.
17:19I pulled Aurora titer against me.
17:21She was so light.
17:2316 years old, and she weighed less than a 10-year-old child.
17:27Everything is fine, sweetie.
17:28I'm here.
17:29I got you.
17:30My voice softened.
17:31No one is ever hurting you again.
17:33You are not going to die.
17:35And neither am I.
17:37The people who hurt you.
17:39Your father, your grandmother, even the ones sitting last one of them pay.
17:43Helena was still screaming.
17:45I handed Aurora back to Nettie.
17:48Then I walked toward her.
17:51I wrenched the dagger from her grip and drew it across her throat, deep enough to steal her voice, not
17:56deep enough to end her life.
17:57Helena's eyes flew wide.
17:59She clutched at her bleeding throat and made these wet.
18:02When I accepted Dominic, you were a withered she-wolf, too frail to even nurse your own pup.
18:07So I raised Margit.
18:09I was the one who put meat in her mouth.
18:11I kept your bloodline alive.
18:13I raised both of you as my own.
18:15The year I went to war, you cried and swore you would protect Aurora.
18:20You swore it before the Moon Goddess.
18:23And how did you repay my mercy?
18:25You beat her with switches.
18:27You held her down in ice water.
18:30You whipped her with leather soaked in salt.
18:33You did that to a six-year-old child!
18:34The rage in Helena's eyes finally cracked.
18:37Fear rushed in.
18:38Killing you would be too easy.
18:40I loosened my grip on her clothes.
18:42She crumpled to the ground.
18:44I turned to my war wolves.
18:45From this moment on, Helena Greyhulf is cast out of the pack.
18:50Sever her pack link.
18:51Strike her name from the pack rolls.
18:54She is no longer under Greyhulf protection.
18:56From this second on, she is a rogue.
19:00I felt her presence in the pack link snap like a thread.
19:03The pain hit her a hundred times harder than anything I could have done by hand.
19:07Her mouth opened.
19:09No sound came out.
19:10Fear flooded her face.
19:12Real fear.
19:13Send word to every pack.
19:15No pack, large or small, is allowed to shelter Helena Greyhulf.
19:20If any pack dares grant her shadow or salt,
19:22they will face the full fury of 2,000 aspirin blades.
19:27Helena lay there on the ground, blood and tears all over her face.
19:30She wasn't afraid of dying.
19:32She was afraid of what came after this.
19:35Becoming nothing.
19:36No pack.
19:37No one answered her call.
19:39Alive, but alone.
19:41Until the day she died.
19:43I never looked at her again.
19:45I sent wolves to the manor storehouse for herbs.
19:48Aurora needed treatment now.
19:49But when my warriors came back, they brought back nothing.
19:53The servants dropped to their knees.
19:54I looked around once, and before I could even speak, one of them blurted it out.
19:58Celeste is about to give birth.
20:00Dominic and Vivian took every bit of herbs from the manor and brought it to the alpha hair stronghold.
20:06Aurora clutched my hand.
20:08Mom, it hurts so much.
20:11This is your manor.
20:12Why won't you give me anything for the pain?
20:14The storehouse is full of salves and herbs.
20:17Mom, I'm so cold.
20:19I don't want the goddess to take me.
20:21If I'm gone, who will be left to love you?
20:24Those remedies were mine.
20:26I had spent my whole life collecting the best herbs and treatments I could find, better than what they kept
20:30in the high alphas moonhaul.
20:32And my daughter lay rotting without so much as a poultice, while Dominic and Vivian stripped my stores bare for
20:37Celeste.
20:38All warriors, to the alpha hair stronghold.
20:43Dominic, Vivian, Celeste.
20:46Every last one of you is going to die today.
20:49I tried to settle Aurora onto the blankets inside the carriage.
20:53The second I moved, she grabbed my hand again.
20:55Mom, don't leave me.
20:57Don't leave me.
20:58I'm so scared.
21:00Please.
21:01So I held her and hummed softly, the way I used to when she was small.
21:05Gradually, the shaking eased.
21:07She leaned into me.
21:09The carriage reached the alpha heir's stronghold.
21:11Alpha, there's an army outside the estate.
21:14The one leading them is General Garrick Whitmore.
21:17Garrick Whitmore, a legendary general, the kind people spoke about the same way they spoke about my father.
21:23He commanded one third of the kingdom's army.
21:25I carried Aurora out of the carriage.
21:27Garrick stood across from me, white-haired, back straight as a blade.
21:31Ashpen's child, this should be a good day.
21:35You came home victorious.
21:36Listen, go home.
21:38Had it been anyone else standing in my path, they would already be dead.
21:42But General Whitmore once saved my father's life.
21:45So I walked toward him with Aurora in my arms.
21:48His warriors tensed as one.
21:50My warwolves braced at my back.
21:52Then Aurora moved.
21:54She turned to look at Garrick and held out a hand to him, baring her face and arms.
21:59She was deathly pale.
22:01Fresh wounds crossed over old ones.
22:03Silver burns had branded themselves into the skin alongside the lash marks.
22:07Grandpa Whitmore.
22:09Her voice was worn to nothing.
22:10Whitmore stared at her.
22:12I'm Aurora.
22:15Ravena's daughter.
22:16The day mum left for war, you held me and watched her go.
22:21You told me my mum was a guardian.
22:24That because of her, everyone else got to live in peace.
22:29You said you would look after me for her.
22:32Aurora coughed.
22:33Blood ran from the corner of her mouth.
22:35Baby.
22:36Garrick's face changed.
22:38This is Aurora.
22:41How did this happen?
22:42The Greyhull family told me she was fine.
22:44They said she found someone she loved.
22:46The high alpha and the alpha here told me they had let the matter go.
22:49That she left on her own.
22:51How did she end up like this?
22:52They lied to me.
22:54And they lied to you.
22:56Grandpa Whitmore.
22:58I never had a lover.
22:59I caught them.
23:01Celeste and the alpha hair.
23:02Rutting like beasts in my mother's own bed.
23:04My father and the high alpha.
23:06They tried to break me.
23:08They demanded I sign away my honour for their sins.
23:11But I am my mother's daughter.
23:13I would not bow.
23:14So they sold me to that monster, Fenwick.
23:18If I hadn't been waiting for mum to come back,
23:21I would have died at that estate already.
23:24Grandpa Whitmore, if you don't believe me.
23:27Celeste is giving birth today.
23:29She hasn't even been mated to the alpha heel for six moon cycles.
23:33How could she be having a full-grown pup?
23:36That hit me all at once.
23:38Aurora had been locked in Fenwick's cell.
23:41How did she know Celeste was giving birth today?
23:43How did she know when their mate bond was made?
23:45I didn't have time to think it through.
23:47Garrick had already sent people to check.
23:50They came back fast and leaned into whisper in his ear.
23:53His face darkened.
23:54Then darker.
23:55Then his whole body started shaking.
23:58Those faithless crows!
24:00Why the hell would the high alpha lie to me?
24:02They told me Lord Fenwick's land was restitution for the alpha heir and Celeste
24:05because Aurora had destroyed their bond.
24:07So this is the truth.
24:09Fine.
24:10I'll deal with the high alpha.
24:11I'm going to ask him to his face why he lied to us.
24:13I need to ask that bastard Dominic why he did this to my daughter for ten straight years.
24:18Garrick was silent for a few seconds.
24:20Then he ordered his warriors to clear the way.
24:23Spare the pup.
24:25If he can't give me an answer, then whatever you choose to do after that, I won't stop you.
24:30This kingdom was built by the Ashburn family.
24:33You're the one who's been holding it together.
24:35No man, not even the high alpha, shall treat an Ashburn like a dog.
24:38Then he turned and marched off with his warriors.
24:44I walked into the alpha heir's stronghold and heard screaming coming from the birthing room.
24:48Two people were standing outside the door.
24:51Dominic and Vivian.
24:52They were both staring at the entrance.
24:54Neither of them saw me.
24:56I stepped up behind Dominic and pressed my dagger into his lower back.
25:00His body went rigid.
25:01But his voice stayed the same as ever, cold and arrogant, like he still thought he owned the heir around
25:06him.
25:07Ravena, put the weapon down.
25:09This is the alpha heir's stronghold, not some place for your insolence.
25:13Vivian turned around.
25:15The second she saw me, tears flooded down her face.
25:19Ravena, what's wrong?
25:21Is this because Dominic came with me to be here for Celeste's labor instead of waiting for you back at
25:26the manor?
25:26It's my fault.
25:27Don't blame him.
25:28Celeste is the alpha heir's mate.
25:30She's carrying his first pup.
25:31I was scared something might go wrong, so I asked Dominic to come with me.
25:35If you need someone to blame, let it be me.
25:38Please don't let this hurt your bond.
25:40I hadn't even opened my mouth yet, and somehow she had already turned herself into the victim.
25:45I remembered the year she moved in.
25:47Back then, I still loved Dominic.
25:50She was always like this, crying without making a sound, letting Dominic think I was the one hurting her.
25:56We fought over her so many times, and every fight shaved away another piece of what I felt for him.
26:01If you have a grudge, take it out on me.
26:03Leave Vivian out of this.
26:04He still couldn't turn around.
26:07The dagger in his back made sure of that.
26:09Dominic, I only have one question.
26:11Why did you do this to Aurora?
26:13Why did you hand her over to Lord Fenwick?
26:15The Greyhull pack never mistreated Aurora.
26:18Lord Fenwick was personally appointed by the High Alpha.
26:22Aurora wronged Celeste first.
26:24She cheated, dragged the Greyhull name through the dirt, and disgraced this family.
26:28She climbed into Lord Fenwick's bed all on her own.
26:32That was her choice.
26:33Vivian sniffled softly beside him.
26:36Celeste is about to give birth.
26:37You humiliated the Alpha hare at the city gates today.
26:40For Celeste, for her child, and to give the Alpha hare an explanation.
26:44I need you to sever our mate bond willingly.
26:47Vivian will become my only mate.
26:49Don't worry.
26:50I won't cast you out of the pack.
26:52You can stay.
26:53Vivian is not like you.
26:55She knows how to behave.
26:56She doesn't make everything difficult.
26:59Since you're already here, go tell the High Alpha you're agreeing to sever the bond voluntarily.
27:04Aurora moved in my arms.
27:06Aurora!
27:07Vivian jumped.
27:09Ravena, are you out of your mind?
27:11You actually brought Aurora here?
27:12She drugged Celeste and the Alpha here.
27:14The Alpha healed hates her.
27:16Bringing her here is the same as sending her to die!
27:20I drove the dagger into Dominic's stomach.
27:23He stopped in the middle of the sentence.
27:24Then he looked down at the blade buried in him.
27:27Ravena, you're actually dead.
27:30Why?
27:31Vivian threw herself onto him, her face flushing red.
27:35Ravena, what are you doing?
27:36Do you think Celeste stole Aurora's place?
27:39Do you think we drove Aurora away?
27:41Even if we'd wanted to, we never would have dared touch her!
27:44Go ask anyone at the manor what kind of life Celeste and I had all these years under Aurora's rule!
27:50Dominic pulled her behind him, shielding her with his body.
27:53Then looked at Aurora with open disgust.
27:56Tell your mother the truth.
27:57Your mother protects this kingdom.
27:59How could she give birth to something as vicious as you?
28:02And you're still lying right to our faces.
