They Messed With The Wrong Luna Dramareel
Transcript
00:03Damon had his people throw me off the pack haul at our mating ceremony.
00:06Vivian's pup needs a father on paper.
00:08Once my bond with her is dissolved, I will marry.
00:11Everyone assumed I would wait one more month.
00:14After all, I had already waited seven years.
00:16But that very same night, I accepted my family's marriage arrangement.
00:19I flew across the border and left Damon's world.
00:21For good.
00:22Three years later, I returned to the old territory with my husband for the ancestral rights.
00:26Ethan was held up by something urgent, so we fly separately.
00:30He sent people from a pack he had acquired three years ago to pick me up.
00:33In the crowd at the arrival gate, I spotted a sign.
00:35It bore my pack name, Lena.
00:37I walked toward it.
00:38The person holding the sign looked up.
00:40It was Damon.
00:41Vivian stood beside him, along with a group of old friends from years past.
00:44They were waiting for me.
00:45They didn't know the person they were waiting for was me.
00:48Damon saw me.
00:48He startled for a second.
00:50Then that self-important smile slid back onto his face.
00:53See?
00:54I told you she'd come back.
00:56Damon, isn't that your little lapdog, Lena?
00:58Someone in the crowd recognized me.
01:00Laughter erupted.
01:01She disappeared for three years and now that Damon's made it big, she comes crawling back?
01:05Dressed like that?
01:06She can't even afford a decent outfit?
01:08Things must have gone badly out there, huh, Lena?
01:10I glanced down at the heartstone chain on my wrist.
01:13The one worth 20 million dollars.
01:14I said nothing.
01:15Whenever I used to see Damon, I dressed to perfection.
01:18The most flawless makeup.
01:19The most tailored gown.
01:21Putting my very best self on display for him.
01:23And now, this outfit was custom made for me by someone Ethan had commissioned.
01:27Because I was pregnant, and he refused to let me wear anything restrictive.
01:30I didn't need to dress up for anyone anymore all for comfort.
01:33I also understood what was happening.
01:35They only knew my pack name.
01:36They had no idea the person they were here to collect was me.
01:39So they were still mocking me.
01:40Still unaware of what they were doing.
01:44The silence stretched too long.
01:46One of Damon's old friends stepped in to smooth things over.
01:48Lena, it's good that you're back.
01:50Look, Damon's actually been looking for you all these years.
01:53The smile on Damon's face stiffened for a beat.
01:56Vivian's pup is starting academy soon.
01:57You'll be responsible for drop-offs and pick-ups from now on.
02:00Three years had passed.
02:01He was exactly the same.
02:02That sense of entitlement.
02:03That air of superiority.
02:05I was about to reveal who I was.
02:06Lena, don't blame Damon.
02:08He's arranging this for your own good.
02:10The way you've been getting by out there,
02:13you don't even qualify to be my personal secretary.
02:16Help me look after my son.
02:18No one will look down on you for that.
02:20Damon caught me frowning and assumed I was jealous.
02:22A flicker of satisfaction crossed his eyes.
02:24All right, if the outside world didn't work out,
02:26stop pretending it did.
02:28Take care of the child.
02:30Know your place.
02:32Don't worry.
02:33There's no shortage of Omega servant quarters in the house.
02:36He genuinely believed.
02:38I had come back because I couldn't let him go.
02:40Look how well Damon's taking care of you.
02:42Room and board all sorted.
02:44Go on.
02:44Thank Damon.
02:46Lena, don't worry.
02:48If my son acts up, I'll discipline him myself.
02:51I won't let you be mistreated.
02:52Damon let out a cold laugh.
02:54What does she have to be mistreated about?
02:56She vanished over something trivial,
02:58and now she's back because she couldn't make it out there.
03:01A little hardship is exactly what she deserves.
03:05My heart skipped.
03:06Even now, he's still called that trivial.
03:08The heavy rain outside Pac Hall is back as he walked in with Vivian.
03:11Seven years.
03:12To him, it was just a trivial thing.
03:14The boy who had once carried me across half the territory while bleeding out himself,
03:18just to keep his promise.
03:20He was long dead.
03:21Dead the day he chose Vivian for the first time.
03:23It was all in the past.
03:24I didn't need any of that anymore.
03:26I was about to have my second child.
03:29I pressed down every feeling and looked at Damon with perfect calm.
03:32Aren't you here to pick me up?
03:34Let's go.
03:35A beat of silence fell over the crowd.
03:37Then, laughter exploded.
03:39Wait for you?
03:41Who do you think you are?
03:43We're waiting for Lena.
03:45Do you even know who that is?
03:47Of course I did.
03:48That's my name.
03:49Ethan swore never to bond.
03:51They say he was waiting for her his whole life.
03:53Everyone in the circles knows,
03:55if you want to get close to Ethan,
03:57go through his Luna.
03:58There's nothing he wouldn't give up for that woman.
04:00Listening to them describe my own life,
04:02I couldn't keep the corners of my mouth from lifting.
04:04Three years into our bond,
04:05Ethan's power had only grown,
04:07and his reputation for doting on his Luna had grown with it.
04:09Vivian had always had a talent
04:11for flaunting other people's lives in my face.
04:13At the Blood Summit auction,
04:15Ethan won a heartstone chain for his Luna.
04:17Value?
04:18$20 million.
04:20Every female on the continent envies that woman.
04:26It's...
04:26this one.
04:29Everyone was staring at the chain on my wrist.
04:30Damon grabbed my hand and leaned in for a close look.
04:34Replica.
04:35Which delivery boy Omega bought you this?
04:38Wearing garbage like that in public, shameless.
04:41I pulled my hand free.
04:42I traced my fingers over every stone on the chain.
04:44The day Ethan clasped it onto my wrist,
04:46he murmured in my ear,
04:48don't ever take it off.
04:49I smiled.
04:50Damon saw my smile.
04:51His pupils contracted sharply.
04:52He lunged forward and ripped the chain from my wrist.
04:55I hadn't been ready for it.
04:56He got away with it.
04:57The thing Ethan gave me had just fallen into Vivian's hands.
05:00Nice weight.
05:01Definitely more refined than the fake I bought.
05:03But I wouldn't be caught dead wearing something like this in public.
05:07Or could it be...
05:08Lena, are you Lena?
05:10You're the legendary Blood Summit Luna?
05:13The laughter that broke out was deafening,
05:15because it was absurd.
05:16Ethan was the strongest alpha on the continent.
05:18And I, three years ago,
05:20was the broken Omega Damon had driven out of Pack Hall.
05:23No one could possibly connect the two.
05:25Vivian tossed the chain in her palm,
05:26weighing it.
05:28Lena, I'll buy this off you.
05:30Double the price.
05:31Give it back.
05:32That was a gift from Ethan.
05:38Shut up.
05:39Damon towered over me,
05:40eyes burning with irritation.
05:42You think you can drop Ethan's name just like that?
05:45Spreading rumors about a connection with him in a place like this?
05:49Are you trying to get me killed?
05:51Lena, do you have any idea
05:53getting to receive Ethan's Luna was a chance
05:56a thousand people fought over?
05:58Damon's pack was acquired by Ethan three years ago.
06:01We all survive on his goodwill now.
06:03If you spread lies here,
06:05you'll bring ruin down on every single one of us.
06:07I slowly raised my hand
06:08and wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth.
06:11Slowly turned my head
06:12and looked Damon directly in the eyes.
06:15Damon's brow furrowed.
06:16Something in his gaze
06:17flickered with unease.
06:19He thought I was the Lena he remembered.
06:21He thought I would cry,
06:22beg, explain.
06:24He didn't know.
06:25The way I looked at him now
06:26was the same way I'd look at a dead man.
06:29Vivian caught the way Damon was looking at me.
06:31She immediately pointed a finger in my face.
06:33Lena, you ungrateful wolf.
06:35Damon already agreed to take you in
06:38and this is how you act?
06:39Even if you resent him,
06:41you don't get to use this kind of revenge.
06:43I had a strange sense of deja vu.
06:46Three years ago,
06:47it was exactly like this.
06:48No matter what happened,
06:50Vivian would twist the truth
06:51and feed it to Damon.
06:52In the beginning,
06:53Damon would still yell at Vivian for it.
06:55Later, he started echoing her words
06:57to come after me.
06:58Just like now,
06:59Damon bit out.
07:00Jealous.
07:01But he didn't keep going.
07:02He went quiet for a moment.
07:03Then reached into his jacket.
07:05Placed a check in front of me.
07:07Two hundred thousand.
07:08The posture of charity.
07:10The expression of charity.
07:12He genuinely believed
07:13this was the greatest dignity
07:14he could offer me.
07:15Out of respect for what we once had,
07:17I won't do anything to you.
07:19Take the money.
07:20Go buy yourself something decent to wear.
07:22If you don't want to look after the child,
07:24I'll find you a respectable position
07:26in a few days.
07:27Since Ethan acquired my pack,
07:28this amount means nothing to me.
07:30I looked at that check.
07:31Looked at his face.
07:32Giving charity.
07:33Under the stunned stares
07:34of everyone around us,
07:35I pushed it back.
07:37Retrieved the chain from Vivian's hand.
07:39No thank you.
07:40I don't take things from strangers.
07:42I'm a stranger?
07:44Lena, what the hell does that mean?
07:46Since the relationship is over,
07:48it's better we don't associate.
07:50I wouldn't want my husband
07:52to get the wrong idea.
07:53Damon's expression shifted.
07:57He glanced at Vivian
07:58and that knowing look
07:58crossed his face.
07:59He thought I was trying
08:00to make him jealous.
08:01In three days,
08:02Ironcrest Pack is hosting
08:04a Blood Moon Gala
08:05in Ethan's honor.
08:06I'll take you.
08:07Give you a glimpse
08:08of how the other half lives.
08:13Though you'll need
08:14to find yourself
08:14something decent
08:15to wear first
08:15or else...
08:17No thank you.
08:18Damon's face darkened.
08:19Lena,
08:20I hope in three days
08:22you'll still feel
08:23this confident.
08:24I walked out
08:25of the arrival gate
08:26without looking back.
08:27Fresh air flooded my lungs.
08:28The nausea in my stomach
08:30finally began to ease.
08:31Three years ago,
08:32my family had pressured me
08:33to cross the border
08:34for an arranged marriage.
08:35I held out against it
08:37and ran to Damon,
08:38begging him to complete
08:39our bond first.
08:40Make it a done deal
08:41before anyone could interfere.
08:43As you wish.
08:44Then at the doors
08:45of Pack Hall,
08:46I didn't just find him.
08:48I found Vivian
08:49waiting beside him.
08:50Vivian's pup
08:51needs to be registered.
08:52I have to complete
08:53the bond with her first.
08:54One month.
08:55Then I'll come
08:56for you immediately.
08:57It's only for the
08:58child's sake.
08:59Don't read into it.
09:00I watched him
09:01walk into Pack Hall
09:02with Vivian on his arm.
09:03That night,
09:04I set out.
09:05One month later,
09:06I married Ethan.
09:08The year after that,
09:09Leo was born.
09:10Just a few days ago,
09:11I confirmed I was
09:12carrying a second.
09:13If not for accompanying
09:14Ethan back for the
09:15ancestral rites,
09:16I would never have set
09:17foot on this land again
09:18for the rest of my life.
09:20Let alone,
09:21run into him
09:22at the arrival gate.
09:23Three days later,
09:24I put on a light
09:24layer of makeup.
09:25The same custom
09:26soft fabric dress.
09:28I went to the
09:29Blood Moon Gala alone.
09:30The moment I walked in,
09:31Damon spotted me.
09:35A light flickered
09:36in his eyes.
09:37That familiar,
09:38self-satisfied curve
09:38pulled at the corner
09:39of his mouth.
09:40Said you wouldn't come,
09:42but here you are.
09:44Body doesn't lie.
09:48Though if you want me
09:49to look twice,
09:50you could at least
09:51dress the part.
09:53For an occasion like this,
09:54what you're wearing...
09:56I stepped around him
09:57and kept walking.
09:58He grabbed my arm.
09:58I'm talking to you.
10:04Our seats are over here.
10:05Where are you going?
10:06I looked calmly
10:07toward the far end
10:08of the hall.
10:09That's your seat.
10:11Mine is over there.
10:12Following my gaze,
10:13Damon saw the head table.
10:15The Alpha's seat.
10:16The Luna's seat.
10:17His expression changed.
10:19Vivian's eyes
10:19turned vicious instantly.
10:21She fixed her glare
10:22on the chain at my wrist
10:23and raised her voice.
10:25Lena!
10:26How did you get in here?
10:27Are you here to cause trouble?
10:29Walking in with that chain.
10:31Are you trying
10:32to humiliate the Luna?
10:34Tonight is Ethan's first time
10:36bringing his Luna out in public.
10:38Rogue woman, get out.
10:40Every guest in the room
10:41turned to look.
10:42Someone glanced at Damon.
10:43Damon Alpha,
10:44do you know this person?
10:46Damon straightened his cuffs
10:47perfectly composed.
10:48No.
10:49One word.
10:50Clean.
10:51Final.
10:52Vivian lifted her chin immediately.
10:54Take off that chain
10:55and get out!
10:57She reached for it.
10:58I stepped aside.
10:59But someone deliberately
11:00tripped me from behind.
11:02I fell.
11:03Vivian planted her foot
11:04on my wrist.
11:05The chain.
11:07She tore it free
11:08with brute force.
11:09The gems scattered
11:10across the floor
11:11like a shattered constellation.
11:14Drag her out!
11:15Pain screamed
11:16through my wrist,
11:17bone deep.
11:17Stop!
11:18I'm Ethan!
11:20His what?
11:22His mistress?
11:23Who do you think you are?
11:27She backhands me again.
11:28I lay against the middle of the floor.
11:30When I came back here,
11:31I hadn't planned to settle
11:32scores with anyone.
11:33There was no point.
11:33But now,
11:34she had struck me twice.
11:35She had destroyed
11:36something Ethan gave me.
11:38She would pay
11:38for both of those things.
11:40Everything she was capable
11:41of losing,
11:42she would lose it all.
11:44Damon crouched
11:45in front of me.
11:46He reached out
11:47as if to touch
11:47the wound on my wrist.
11:49I flinched away
11:50on instinct.
11:50He looked at me coldly.
11:52Are you done
11:53making a scene?
11:54You came in that outfit,
11:56wearing that chain.
11:58You missed me,
11:59didn't you?
11:59You wanted to make me jealous.
12:01Just say the word
12:02and I'll give you
12:03what you want.
12:04Damon.
12:04I raised my eyes
12:05to meet his.
12:06You're finished.
12:07Damon frowned,
12:08about to speak.
12:09The atmosphere
12:10in the gala shifted.
12:11Every guest began
12:12composing themselves,
12:13pressing toward the entrance.
12:14Damon leaned down
12:15and murmured to me,
12:16Ethan's here.
12:18Behave yourself.
12:19Vivian and I
12:20have already dissolved our bond.
12:22I pressed my nearly
12:23crushed wrist.
12:24Looking at his face,
12:25I felt nothing but revulsion.
12:26Whether you two
12:27dissolve your bond or not,
12:29what does that have
12:29to do with me?
12:31Then,
12:32the doors opened.
12:33Ethan walked in,
12:34carrying Leo.
12:37The moment Leo
12:38entered the hall,
12:39he squirmed to get down
12:40from Ethan's arms.
12:41The moment the cherub-faced
12:42little pup touched the ground,
12:44every eye in the room
12:45was pulled to him.
12:46Damon turned to me abruptly.
12:48Lena,
12:49as long as you stop
12:50provoking Vivian,
12:51I can forgive you
12:52for disappearing three years.
12:54I'll give you a chance.
12:56Bear me a child.
12:57A child that belongs to us.
12:59I paid him no attention.
13:00I was looking through the crowd,
13:02trying to catch Leo's eye.
13:03Leo's gaze swept the room.
13:05Then, locked,
13:06he broke free from Ethan's hand
13:07and charged toward me.
13:09Crashed into my arms.
13:11Mama,
13:11what happened to you?
13:13Who did this?
13:15Why is there so much blood
13:16blood on your hand?
13:17That one word.
13:18Mama.
13:19And the entire gala went still.
13:23The gala stood by cold-eyed
13:25while I was struck.
13:26Their faces all changed at once.
13:29Leo held on to me,
13:30eyes going red.
13:31I crouched to meet him
13:33at eye level.
13:34Cupped his round little cheeks
13:35in my hands.
13:37Mama is fine.
13:39Whoever dares to treat Mama like this.
13:42I was about to reassure him
13:44when I felt the pressure from behind.
13:46Not an ordinary approach.
13:48It was Ethan's.
13:49The kind that felt like a mountain moving.
13:50The kind that made the air itself go still.
13:53The crowd parted automatically.
13:54I didn't need to turn around
13:56to know he was furious.
13:57Since I'd gotten pregnant with our second,
13:59he'd have kept me physically
14:00tucked against him if he could.
14:02If it hadn't been for the urgent matter,
14:04he never would have sent someone else
14:05to pick me up.
14:06I lifted Leo into my arms,
14:08turned around.
14:09Ethan was standing there.
14:11His gaze dropped to the bloodstain on my wrist,
14:13then to the marks on my face.
14:15His eyes went dark.
14:19Leo slipped out of my arms
14:20and ran to Ethan.
14:22Daddy, someone hurt Mama!
14:24Let's go get revenge!
14:27Lena, tell me what happened.
14:30One moment I'm away
14:32and you're already hurt.
14:33Which blind fool did this?
14:35I'm fine, Ethan.
14:36Lena.
14:38I'm your mate.
14:40If something wronged you,
14:41you don't have to carry it alone.
14:42We can't let anyone hurt Mama!
14:45Maybe it was the pregnancy.
14:46Maybe I'd held it together for too long.
14:48My voice came out with a tremor
14:50I hadn't planned for.
14:51You weren't there
14:52and they all went after me.
14:55At that moment,
14:56Leo's eyes caught something on the floor.
14:58He bent down and picked up a single gem.
15:00Daddy,
15:01isn't this part of the gift
15:02you gave Mama?
15:04Ethan took the stone
15:05and turned it over.
15:07On the back,
15:08two letters were engraved.
15:09E.
15:10L.
15:12Turn on every light.
15:17Every light in the gala blazed on.
15:19Ethan tilted my face toward him.
15:23They actually dared to do this to you.
15:26We can't let them get away with this.
15:28I didn't know if it was the pregnancy,
15:30but my emotions kept slipping past my defenses.
15:33You weren't there
15:34and they all went after me.
15:38The people who had followed
15:40to the arrival gate
15:40to mock me,
15:41their legs were shaking now.
15:44They were finally putting it together.
15:46The woman in the custom soft fabric dress
15:49three days ago.
15:50The woman with the heartstone chain
15:52on her wrist.
15:53The woman who kept insisting
15:55she was Ethan's Luna.
15:57She hadn't been making it up.
15:59Every word she said had been true.
16:04Just then,
16:05Vivian's follower,
16:06Jade,
16:06stepped forward.
16:08Lena,
16:08are these two actors you hired?
16:11Not bad performances,
16:12honestly.
16:14Want Vivian to help you find an agent?
16:16Though,
16:17since you can't even afford
16:18a decent outfit these days.
16:20I have one I've worn before
16:21I could give it to you.
16:22Save you the embarrassment.
16:24Jade had arrived last.
16:25She hadn't seen Leo
16:26throw himself into my arms.
16:28She had dressed to kill tonight,
16:30hoping to catch the eye
16:31of a powerful mate.
16:33The fastest route
16:34to a powerful mate
16:35in these circles
16:37was to win Vivian's favor.
16:39And the most effective way
16:40to win Vivian's favor
16:42was to make my life miserable.
16:44So she opened her mouth.
16:46No one in the room laughed.
16:48Everyone was staring at her
16:50like she'd lost her mind.
16:52Jade began to panic.
16:53She turned to Ethan
16:54and tilted her face upward,
16:56trying to be coy.
16:57The man next to her,
16:58he's not bad looking.
17:00If you're willing to leave Lena,
17:02I might consider
17:02keeping you.
17:04Keeping.
17:05Ethan.
17:06I nearly laughed out loud.
17:11Ethan started laughing.
17:13That kind of laugh.
17:14The rare one,
17:16where it curls up at the corners
17:17and he can't quite stop it.
17:19He had always been particular
17:20about my safety.
17:22Over the years,
17:23anyone who tried to get close to him
17:24either vanished
17:25or ended up on the far end
17:26of the continent.
17:28He wasn't angry.
17:30He simply found her amusing.
17:32In the way one finds someone
17:33who has used up their borrowed time,
17:36Jade sensed the shift in the room
17:37and tried to press herself
17:39closer to Vivian.
17:40Vivian immediately gave her a slap
17:42that sent her to the floor.
17:44Jade, are you trying to die?
17:46You dare offend Ethan and his Luna?
17:48Do you have a death wish?
17:50Jade clutched her face,
17:52slumped on the marble murmuring.
17:54Lena is Lena.
17:55She's really the Luna.
17:57I offended.
17:58I...
17:59Ethan was notorious
18:00across the continent
18:01for being fiercely protective
18:02of his mate.
18:04Jade's mind went to
18:05what might be waiting for her.
18:06Her whole body
18:07began to tremble.
18:09Someone in the crowd gasped.
18:10All eyes moved
18:12to the hem of Jade's dress.
18:14She had wet herself from fear.
18:16Ethan gave a slight frown.
18:18His guards understood
18:19without a word
18:20and dragged her out.
18:22Damon and Vivian's faces
18:24flushed a deep,
18:25mortified red.
18:26Everyone in the room knew
18:28that Jade's words
18:29had always followed
18:30wherever their hearts pointed.
18:34The healer Ethan had summoned
18:35was treating my wounds.
18:37The antiseptic touched skin.
18:39I hissed through my teeth.
18:42Just that one sound.
18:44And Ethan and Leo
18:45both looked up
18:46with murder in their eyes.
18:47You can't even apply medicine
18:49without hurting her?
18:50The healer's hands
18:51began to shake even harder.
18:53I pretended to glare at them.
18:55Lena.
18:56Mama.
18:57Father and son
18:58both shrank back,
18:59looking aggrieved.
19:01I sighed.
19:02The healer is helping me.
19:04Stop terrifying her.
19:06The healer visibly exhaled.
19:08After her examination,
19:09she addressed Ethan.
19:10Alpha Ethan.
19:11The luma is unharmed
19:13and the pup in the womb
19:14is safe as well.
19:16The wound on her wrist
19:18is fairly deep.
19:19I'll use the finest medicine available
19:21and do my best
19:22to ensure it heals
19:23without scarring.
19:24Ethan went quiet.
19:26Said nothing.
19:27Only I knew.
19:29This was what it looked like
19:30when he was truly,
19:32deeply,
19:32furious.
19:34Damon.
19:34the one most responsible
19:36for all of it
19:37was finally beginning
19:39to feel afraid.
19:40He never could have imagined
19:41that the Omega
19:43he had thrown away
19:44had become the mate
19:46of the man above him
19:47in every hierarchy
19:48that mattered.
19:50Ethan stood beside me
19:52and swept a slow gaze
19:53across the room.
19:54I'd like you all
19:55to volunteer
19:56what happened
19:56in the past few days.
19:59If I have to find out
20:01on my own.
20:02He paused.
20:03Everyone present
20:04may not die pleasantly.
20:06Damon's complexion shifted.
20:07He was the first to speak.
20:10Ethan Alpha.
20:11This is all a misunderstanding.
20:13As Lena's
20:14former intended mate,
20:16I was simply
20:17catching up with her.
20:18The glass in Ethan's hand
20:19let out a faint
20:20precise crack.
20:21Damon didn't notice
20:22and kept going.
20:23Ethan Alpha must know
20:24how much Lena
20:25used to love me.
20:27Catching up
20:28is only natural,
20:29isn't it?
20:30The glass shattered.
20:31Ethan's hand
20:32was covered in blood.
20:33I ached
20:33just looking at it.
20:34Damon,
20:35stop flattering yourself.
20:36I tended to Ethan's hand
20:37while I spoke.
20:38In this life,
20:39I have only ever loved Ethan.
20:41Say anything else
20:42to drive a wedge between us
20:43and don't expect me
20:44to stay civil.
20:45Ethan looked down,
20:46watching me bandage his hand.
20:48And then he smiled.
20:50Lena,
20:51you just said
20:52I'm your favorite.
20:54I
20:55was speechless.
20:58Damon's expression
20:59turned wounded.
21:00Lena,
21:02Vivian and I
21:02have dissolved our bond.
21:04He opened his mouth again.
21:06That pup
21:06could call you mama
21:07going forward too.
21:09You only married Ethan
21:10to spite me,
21:11didn't you?
21:11I understand.
21:12I don't mind.
21:13As long as you're willing
21:14to come back,
21:15everything I can give you,
21:16none of it is less
21:17than what he offers.
21:18As long as you're willing
21:19to come back
21:20and be my son's nanny.
21:21Leo,
21:21sitting nearby,
21:22slowly set down his fork.
21:24He studied Damon
21:24for a moment.
21:25Nanny?
21:26My mama
21:27is a little
21:28princess at home.
21:30You think you're
21:31worthy of making
21:32her a nanny?
21:33Mama will only ever
21:34have me and my
21:35little sister,
21:36two children.
21:37Your pup
21:37of unclear
21:37origins has no
21:39business being
21:40connected to my mama.
21:41You're not as
21:42handsome as my daddy,
21:43not as tall either,
21:44and you smell
21:45the kind of broke
21:46that gets into
21:47your eyes.
21:48The guests around
21:48them burst out laughing.
21:51Damon's face
21:51went purple.
21:52At this moment,
21:53Vivian had completely
21:54lost what remained
21:55of her composure.
21:56She heard Damon say,
21:58let Lena be
21:58the child's mother.
22:00She picked up a fork
22:01and lunged at Leo.
22:05You little bastard,
22:06I'll kill you!
22:07The moment Vivian
22:08charged at Leo,
22:09I released Ethan's hand
22:10and threw myself
22:11over Leo.
22:12Son,
22:13are you...
22:14Okay.
22:15The word never came out.
22:17Before I lost
22:18consciousness,
22:18I saw Leo's face.
22:20Panicked.
22:21Pale.
22:22I wanted to tell him
22:23don't cry.
22:24The words didn't come.
22:26Everything went dark.
22:29The sharp smell
22:30of antiseptic
22:31pulled me back.
22:32White ceiling above me.
22:34A patient's gown.
22:36Mia was sitting
22:37at the bedside.
22:38The moment she saw
22:39my eyes open,
22:40she threw herself at me.
22:42Lena!
22:43You're finally awake!
22:45If you'd slept any longer,
22:46those two little demons
22:47of yours would have torn
22:48the whole territory apart!
22:50My first instinct.
22:52I pressed a hand
22:53to my stomach.
22:54Mia understood immediately.
22:56Relax.
22:57You and the baby
22:58are both perfectly fine.
22:59The doctor said
23:00it was the shock
23:01combined with the pain
23:02from your wound
23:03that made you pass out.
23:04Yeah.
23:05That Vivian
23:05is absolutely unhinged!
23:07Going at Leo
23:08with a fork!
23:09Where are Leo
23:10and Ethan?
23:11Safe.
23:12Both of them.
23:13You were still
23:14too reckless.
23:15With that many guards
23:16around,
23:17it wasn't your turn
23:18to step in.
23:18That's Leo.
23:20I know,
23:21I know,
23:21your precious little pup.
23:23That little creature
23:24is vicious enough
23:25on his own.
23:26He didn't need protection.
23:28Where are they now,
23:29the two of them?
23:31Mia's eyes lit up.
23:32Gone to avenge you.
23:36I got there
23:36after you'd already
23:37passed out,
23:38but I pieced together
23:39what happened
23:39from the people around.
23:40After you went down,
23:42Leo picked up the fork
23:43from the floor
23:44and drove it
23:45straight through
23:46Vivian's palm.
23:47He's three years old.
23:49I have no idea
23:50where he found the strength.
23:51Ethan had also learned
23:52by then
23:52what happened
23:54at the arrival gate
23:54three days ago.
23:55That Damon slapped you.
23:57That he tore off
23:58the heartstone chain.
23:59The way they all
24:00humiliated you.
24:01He knew every detail.
24:03Then he had his guards
24:04hold Damon down
24:06and had the hand
24:07that struck you cut off.
24:10Leo watched the whole thing
24:11without blinking once.
24:13Such a little tyrant.
24:15Vivian.
24:16Ethan had someone
24:17bring in a crate
24:17of gemstones
24:18and told her
24:18to swallow them all.
24:19He said exactly this.
24:20Since you love
24:21taking things
24:22that belong to others
24:22so much,
24:23I'll give you your fill.
24:24The gems are yours.
24:25So is the man.
24:27She swallowed.
24:28She refused.
24:29So they brought in her son.
24:31She swallowed a lot.
24:33When she was half dead from it,
24:35Ethan had someone
24:36carve up her face,
24:38severed the tangents
24:39in her son's hands,
24:40and had her thrown
24:41into international waters.
24:43The guests who stood there
24:44and watched you get beaten,
24:45every single one of them
24:46left with a scar
24:46on their wrist.
24:47So they'll remember
24:48the cost of looking away
24:49while the Luna
24:49was being humiliated.
24:51Oh, and one more thing.
24:52Ironcrest pack
24:52officially dissolved.
24:54Everything Damon had.
24:55Starting today,
24:55gone.
24:56Go on.بلg.
24:57Go on. Let's
24:58Go on.
24:58Go on.
24:59Go on.
