00:00In this frigid altar, I can no longer distinguish whether the cold bites at my flesh or festers deep within
00:05my broken soul.
00:07I've guarded this altar for 10 years.
00:1010 years!
00:11I nearly died trying to heal your inner wolf.
00:15And you bring a pregnant woman back here?
00:18Layla, you know how it works.
00:21I can only gain greater power by sighing an air with a high-blooded she-wolf.
00:26Blame yourself for being nothing but a lowly omega.
00:29Simus, this little bitch is way too slow.
00:33The pup in my Demly is already protesting.
00:36Layla, don't stop.
00:39Ava is pregnant.
00:41She needs your healing essence to stabilize the baby.
00:44Hell no!
00:46Who told you to stop?
00:50Ah!
00:59Silas, she's so loud.
01:02Can you shut her up?
01:05Layla, your essence, your blood, your bones, they're all mine.
01:10You don't get to fight back!
01:12Filled with loathing, Silas cast me aside and approached Ava.
01:16He condensed my strength into a soft, glowing golden orb.
01:20At a subtle squeeze of his palm, and they both disappeared without a trace upon the altar.
01:24My fingernails dug into the crevices of the bloodstone.
01:28My vision blurred.
01:29All my power faded.
01:31I returned to my ordinary form and collapsed weakly across the cold stone ground.
01:36The last thing my fading sight caught was that narrow vent window high on the wall.
01:40Deep in the pitch black heart of the cursed woods, a pair of burning gold eyes hung suspended in the
01:44darkness.
01:49If he still, still wants my lunar essence, he should, at least let me get medicine for my wounds.
01:58I had the sentinels guarding the altar relay the message to Silas.
02:02He reluctantly agreed.
02:04I dragged my weakened body out of the altar chamber, stumbling with every step.
02:08I was about to cross the central courtyard toward the apothecary when low laughter drifted out from the side hall,
02:13Mara.
02:13I ducked behind a stone pillar on instinct and held my breath.
02:16Mother, how much longer do we have to keep that little bitch around?
02:21Every time I see her playing the devoted mortal for Silas at that altar, it makes me sick.
02:26Patience, sweetheart.
02:27Just a few more days.
02:28After the next full moon, once Silas drains the last of her lunar essences, I'll slip liquid silver into her
02:34sleeping draught.
02:34An omega dying of exhaustion?
02:36No one will suspect a thing.
02:45Baby, hiding here and eavesdropping, that's not a good habit.
02:50What did you hear?
02:52Those little jokes about Ava?
02:54Silas, are you really planning to drain me dry and then kill me with liquid silver?
02:58Shh!
02:59Layla, don't listen to that scenage old woman.
03:02How could I ever bear to let anything happen to you?
03:06Ava was just politics.
03:08Her family's support.
03:09That's all I needed.
03:11Once I have the position secured, she and that pup mean nothing.
03:15You're the one I keep.
03:16All of this has been for our future.
03:18I pretended to believe him.
03:20The moment his guard dropped...
03:28Damn it!
03:29You insane little bitch!
03:31Seize her!
03:32I shoved him back and sprinted through the narrow door at the end of the corridor, the passage to the
03:36cursed woods, and plunged into the endless darkness.
03:39A voice exploded through the blackness.
03:42Well, well, little thing.
03:44Tell me, did you come to offer yourself to me?
03:49Layla!
03:52Come back now, and I might still forgive you!
03:55If you wake the thing in there, it'll tear us all apart!
03:58I stumbled into a vast stone cavern choked with dead, withered vines.
04:04At the center, they bound a huge, motionless figure.
04:08I grabbed a sharp rock and slashed open my palm.
04:10Blood gushed from my palm.
04:12If the legends are true, if you really crave blood that badly, then take mine.
04:18Just don't let me die.
04:20In his hands.
04:2620 years.
04:29And the one who breaks my chains is an omega.
04:36With the purest healing essence I've ever tasted, offering me her blood like a bargain.
04:43I was like a lamb marked for slaughter.
04:45Layla!
04:46He charged in with a dozen black rich warriors.
04:49Terror crashed over me once again.
04:50No.
04:51No.
04:52The seal hasn't expired yet.
04:55Those chains were made with-
04:56Made with what?
04:58Silver alloy?
05:00Forbidden runes?
05:02Soul eater venom?
05:03She's my mate!
05:05She belongs to Blackridge!
05:07You have no right!
05:08You say she's your mate?
05:10But her blood is rejecting your scent.
05:12You call that a mate?
05:14I'd call that prey.
05:17A sharp, cutting presence began to radiate from him, growing stronger by the second.
05:22It rose higher and higher, towering above the mouthpiece, marching to the stars, casting
05:26past.
05:26The torchlight barely flickered, and Killian was already in front of Silas.
05:32He grabbed Silas by the throat and hurled him away.
05:36Take your people.
05:38Leave.
05:39She's just a lowly omega.
05:41She's worth this much to you?
05:42Hand her over.
05:43I can offer you things worth a thousand times more.
05:46I won't say it again.
05:48Leave.
05:50Move!
05:50Now!
05:58Your blood broke my seal.
06:01You're mine now.
06:02What?
06:07I don't belong to anyone!
06:08Who the hell are you?
06:12Years ago, I gave my grandmother's bracelet to Silas' mother.
06:16I had been foolish enough to treat her like family, believing the raw moonstone on the bracelet
06:20could heal her frail body.
06:22Now, I was taking it back.
06:23A few months later, I timed my move and snuck into the Blackridge Central Hall.
06:29Mara assumed that I was still the same helpless Omega with nothing to her name.
06:34Layla.
06:35You're finally here.
06:37I know you blame Silas, but I've always treated you like my own daughter.
06:42That conniving bitch Ava.
06:43She said your mother's things were bad luck, wanted to throw them away.
06:47I...
06:48I fought to get it back for you.
06:51Come here, sweet girl.
06:53This belongs to you.
06:55It always did.
06:57Let me put it back where it should be.
06:59To my eyes, all of her weakness was nothing but an act to bring me in.
07:03Ah!
07:04You little bitch!
07:06How dare you lay a hand on me!
07:09Ah!
07:11Are you done acting yet?
07:13Or was this silver bagger your real farewell gift?
07:17Ah!
07:19Mara wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and smiled.
07:23Bold.
07:24Seems like these few months away from Blackbirth taught you a thing or two.
07:30Give me the bracelet back.
07:36The bracelet?
07:37Give it back!
07:38Then again, the fact that you snuck into the Blackridge Central Hall all by yourself, that does surprise me.
07:46Did you really think Blackridge's defenses were that easy to get through?
07:50The four side doors behind me burst open at once.
07:54Twelve armed Blackridge elites poured in.
07:56At their center stood Silas.
07:58Layla.
08:00Long time no see.
08:01I froze.
08:02It was a trap.
08:04All of it.
08:05I mustered all my strength.
08:07Only one thought remained.
08:09Kill Mara.
08:09I reversed my grip on the dagger and drove it at Mara's chest.
08:24You psycho!
08:25You actually stabbed me!
08:27Her voice shifted from the screen to something low.
08:30Fine!
08:32Fine!
08:32Layla!
08:33I raised you for ten years!
08:36Ten years!
08:37And this is how you repay me?
08:39Silas suddenly pressed my face hard against his cold bones.
08:42Layla.
08:44You really did give me one hell of a surprise.
08:48Two warriors rushed forward.
08:50Silver chains wrapped around my wrists and bound them behind my back.
08:54Layla.
08:55Since you refused to go back to the altar, I'll grant your wish.
09:00You can channel every last drop of your essence to me right here.
09:04In your dreams.
09:06Dreams?
09:07His hand closed around my throat.
09:10Golden lunar essence poured from my neck into his palm.
09:12Silver chains rattled behind me.
09:14My body arched in agony.
09:16Suddenly, death crashed.
09:18The glass came and sealed.
09:20Shattered like an eggshell.
09:22Rubble and dust rained down.
09:33Who did this?
09:35No one answered.
09:37His fury ignited in an instant.
09:39A searing orb of golden flame roared to life in his palm.
09:42He resembled a solitary wolf trapped in age-long slumber amid the frigid snow-capped peaks.
09:46And I was the one who roused the beast within him.
09:49Burning gold eyes blazing through the dust and debris.
09:51He walked toward me.
09:52With every step, stone cracked beneath his feet.
09:56Fractures spread across the floor like a spiderweb.
09:59He crouched beside me and lifted me from the rubble with impossible care.
10:04Killen.
10:06She's my mate.
10:07I'm disciplining my own woman.
10:09What business is it of yours?
10:11Your woman.
10:25I'm disciplining my own woman.
10:30You're a buyer.
10:32You're a billionaire.
10:39Just Rubble.
10:40I'm disciplining my own man.
10:40You're a girl.
10:41You're a binary tribe.
13:51I know you hate me, if I really didn't care about you, I could have replaced you years ago.
13:57Why did I keep you?
13:59Because I can't live without you, Layla.
14:02It's not just your essence, it's you.
14:05I was wrong, I know I was wrong.
14:07But Layla, it's not too late to change.
14:11Today's marking ceremony is cancelled.
14:15What? Silas, you-
14:19I said, cancelled.
14:22Layla, I'll mark you right now.
14:26In front of everyone.
14:28I'll make you the true Luna of Blackridge.
14:33Simus, you really are one hell of an actor.
14:36But I, Layla, reject this unfaithful bond.
14:44You worthless Omega! You don't get to say no!
14:48You don't get to say anything!
14:53The black stone doors exploded inward, as if something monstrous had struck them from the other side.
14:59Shards of stone tore through the hall.
15:01Wolves dove for cover.
15:03The hand around my throat began to rot rapidly.
15:06Silas screamed.
15:12Killian had appeared behind me, no one saw one.
15:15One hand scooped my limp body into his arms.
15:18I just heard...
15:21Someone wanted her dead.
15:24The Lycan king! It's the legendary Lycan king!
15:27No one touches you again. No one.
15:31You're mine, Layla, and I don't let go of what's mine.
15:35Killian's fingers traced the back of my neck.
15:38Heat seared through my skin.
15:39The mark of the Leakin king burned into existence.
15:43All units, move out!
15:44Outside the Blackbridge Great Hall, rain poured down in sheets.
15:49Don't be afraid of the Lycan name!
15:52Killian just woke up! He's nowhere near full strength!
15:55Kill him! Bring Layla back!
15:58Killian grabbed me, and threw us both off the castle wall.
16:04Killian, you're bleeding!
16:06Just a scratch. Move.
16:07A massive gray wolf burst from the tree lean and lunged straight for a throat.
16:12Killian didn't block.
16:13He fed at his forearm.
16:15The wolf's jaws clamped down with a wet crunch.
16:18I heard bone grind.
16:19He grabbed the wolf by the scruff with his free hand and wrenched.
16:23The animal's neck twisted at a wrong angle.
16:26He pried the dead mouth open with his fingers.
16:28Blood poured down his wrist.
16:30Behind me.
16:32Like he hadn't just let a wolf chew through his arm.
16:35More wolves poured from the tree line.
16:37At the front was a huge brown wolf covered in scars.
16:40Draven, Blackbridge's beta.
16:45Killian!
16:46Alpha gave the order.
16:48Hand over the Omega, and I might make this quick.
16:51How generous.
16:54When I say go, you run north.
16:56Don't stop. Don't look back.
16:58Make it to the Grey Mist River and you're safe.
17:00It's neutral ground.
17:01No Pax forces can enter.
17:03What about you?
17:05I'll be busy kicking their asses.
17:09The dense forest.
17:11Pouring rain.
17:11I ran north as hard as I could.
17:14I ran north as hard as I could.
17:14When I looked back, I saw Killian shift.
17:17The instant his spine arched, a roar tore from his throat and shook the canopy overhead.
17:22His body swelled monstrously, pitch black fur ripping through skin.
17:26Claws shot from his fingers, long as daggers.
17:29When I looked back, a pure black wolf towered over the field, golden eyes blazing, far larger than any alpha
17:36form I had ever seen.
17:39I forced myself to look ahead and ran.
17:42Branches lashed my face.
17:44Thorns tore at my sleeves.
17:46Rock slammed into my knees, and blood ran down both legs.
17:49The grey mist river appeared ahead of me.
17:52I threw myself into the freezing current.
17:55The far bank.
17:56I crawled up the muddy river bank, soaked through, coughing violently, shaking all over.
18:02My eyes locked on the opposite shore.
18:05No answer.
18:07Killian!
18:07I'd heard the Lichen mark was tied to its master's life.
18:11As long as it stayed warm, he was alive.
18:14If it turned cold, I pressed my fingers to the back of my neck.
18:18Suddenly, a hand shot out from behind and seized my wrist.
18:22His eyes were a color I had never seen before, deep violet.
18:26The Lichen King's mark.
18:28On an Omega.
18:30How's that possible?
18:31Who are you?
18:34You answer me first.
18:37Who gave you that mark?
18:39None of your business.
18:41The pattern.
18:41It's the forbidden crest of the Lichen royal bloodline.
18:44The last person who could carve a mark like this, was my son.
18:49Your... son?
18:50My name is Azar.
18:5220 years ago, I was the leader of the Grey Shadow clan.
18:54The last guardians of the Lyman royal family.
18:57The Lyman king and queen were killed in the war.
19:00I smuggled the young Alpha out of the pack in secret.
19:03I raised him as my son.
19:05His name is Killian.
19:07A flash, 20 years ago.
19:09A boy surrounded by flames, black fur matted with blood.
19:12A man shoving him out of the encirclement, only to have half his own face swallowed by the fire.
19:18The boy was swept away by the chaos, vanishing into the darkness.
19:25After that night, I never found him.
19:28The Grey Shadow clan scattered.
19:31I took what was left of our people and hid in this unclaimed territory.
19:3720 years, I thought he was dead.
19:40He's not dead.
19:43He's not dead.
19:43At least, he was still alive before I crossed the river.
19:46Come with me.
19:47You stay on that river bank.
19:49You won't last the night.
19:50I followed Azar through the camp.
19:53This place didn't look like a PAX camp.
19:55More like a... shelter.
19:58The elderly, the wounded, children with bones showing through their skin.
20:02Every wolf who had been cast out, injured, or had nowhere else to go, they all ended up here.
20:07A thin little girl was curled up in the corner of a tent.
20:10There was a deep gash on her lower leg, inflamed and festering.
20:14That child's wound is infected.
20:16If it's not treated, the rot will reach the bone.
20:18I know.
20:20But we don't have a healer.
20:21Don't have medicine either.
20:23In this place, whether you live or die is up to fate.
20:28Let me look at her.
20:31The girl's mother threw herself in front of her child in panic.
20:34Who are you? Don't touch my daughter!
20:37I crouched down, keeping my voice as gentle as I could.
20:40I won't hurt her.
20:42I just...
20:44know a little bit about healing.
20:46I held my hand over the girl's wound.
20:48A thread of dark golden light seeped from my fingertips, so faint it was barely visible,
20:53but the festering skin around the wound began to close, right before our eyes.
20:57The girl's mother clapped her hand over her mouth in shock.
21:00Azar's dark violet eyes contracted sharply.
21:03Lunar essence.
21:05She doesn't even know what she is.
21:09The next day,
21:11A line of old, sick, and wounded wolves stretched out in front of me.
21:15I re-bandaged an old man's broken ribs.
21:17Light seeped through the gaps between my fingers, and the pained look on his face slowly eased.
21:23I cleaned the stump wound of a young wolf who had lost his left arm.
21:27I fed herbal broth to three feverish pups.
21:29The smallest one was so delirious from the fever that his tiny hand grabbed my finger and wouldn't let go.
21:34Azar stood at a distance, arms folded, watching all of it.
21:38Chief.
21:39Who is this woman?
21:41Those wounds, we spent months trying to treat them and got nowhere.
21:43She touches them once and…
21:46Don't ask.
21:48Just keep an eye on her.
21:50But Chief, word's already getting out.
21:52The strays are spreading it everywhere.
21:54Saying an omega with lunar essence has shown up in the unclaimed territories.
22:01Night.
22:02I sat by the campfire at the edge of camp and pulled a fur pelt over the smallest pup.
22:06In his sleep, he had shifted into wolf form, a palm-sized grey pup curled into a ball.
22:12You're worried about him.
22:14Your ex.
22:16The Black Ridge Alpha.
22:19He won't let this go.
22:20You know that, right?
22:23I know.
22:24The unclaimed territories may be neutral ground.
22:27No Pax forces can enter.
22:29But Simus isn't someone who plays by the rules.
22:32I know.
22:33So what are you gonna do?
22:35I looked down at the sleeping pup in my arms.
22:39I don't know.
22:40Azar watched me for a long time.
22:42Then he stood and pulled something from inside his cloak.
22:45A fist-sized chunk of black ore.
22:47He placed it in my palm.
22:51This is a Lycan soul stone.
22:56In times of danger, it will protect the Lycan Luna.
23:02Are you saying I'm the Luna of the Lycan royal bloodline?
