Transcript
00:02A year before Kane became alpha of the blood-flang pack, I broke up with him.
00:06He crushed the uprising, became the youngest alpha in the north, then used every trick he
00:11had to keep me by his side.
00:12Everyone said I was his soft spot, the only one he was ever gentle with.
00:16Then he started bringing other women home.
00:18Every night, someone knew, they'd rub it in my face.
00:21I became a joke.
00:22I didn't cry, didn't fight.
00:24I blocked our mate bond, stayed in the attic, and never disturbed his fun.
00:27That made him furious.
00:29He pinned me down, kissed me hard.
00:31You're not even jealous?
00:32He didn't know I was sick.
00:34My wolf was dying inside me.
00:35While he was busy hurting me, I was counting the days I had left.
00:39The first time I saw Selina was on my birthday.
00:41I had just walked out of the pack's healing ward.
00:43The healer told me my wolf had entered its final stage of fading.
00:46I had about 10 days left, shorter than I thought.
00:49I wasn't afraid of dying.
00:51I was afraid of the pain, the wolf withering inside me, inch by inch, like ice cracking
00:56through bone.
00:57The healer mentioned a drug called Moonstone Essence.
01:00It could stabilize my wolf temporarily, ease the pain, buy me time, and one treatment cost
01:05$100,000.
01:0610 days of treatment, $1 million.
01:08A million dollars.
01:09Nothing to Kane, alpha of the blood-flang pack.
01:12But to me, it was impossible.
01:14A price I could never pay.
01:16So I had to ask Kane.
01:17That's when I met Selina, his personal assistant, the pack's legal consultant.
01:21She wasn't a wolf.
01:22She looked me up and down with disgust.
01:25So this is Kane's wife?
01:26People say I look like her.
01:28How?
01:28She's ugly.
01:29I caught my reflection in the glass.
01:31Thin.
01:32Pale.
01:32And the worst part?
01:33My eyes had lost the golden glow of the wolf.
01:36They looked like two cloudy marbles.
01:38She was right.
01:39I looked awful.
01:39A young she-wolf tugged at Selina's sleeve and whispered,
01:42Careful.
01:43Don't pick a fight just because the alpha favors you right now.
01:46You don't know how much he loves her.
01:48If you mess with her, he'll bury you himself.
01:50Selina rolled her eyes.
01:52She didn't buy it.
01:53If an alpha truly loved his fated mate,
01:55why would he bring a different woman home every night?
01:58Iris, if Kane really loved you, why would he make you wait so long?
02:02He never makes me wait.
02:03He says I matter more than anything.
02:05She smiled with the kind of confidence that glowed from every inch of her.
02:08Honestly, she reminded me of myself when I was younger.
02:12Kane did treat her differently.
02:13He always had women around him.
02:15He used them as weapons to test me, to provoke me.
02:18But he never kept any of them long.
02:19His longest fling lasted two months.
02:21His shortest, a few days.
02:23Then he'd lose interest.
02:25Selina was different.
02:26She was the only one who stayed.
02:27If you really matter that much, why are you still the other woman?
02:30Someone he can't even acknowledge?
02:32Instead of coming after me,
02:34why don't you use your time convincing him to break our mate bond?
02:36The one who isn't loved is the real third wheel.
02:38You're old and ugly.
02:40What makes you think you can even compare to me?
02:42Don't think I don't know.
02:43You and your wolf are dying.
02:44You can't even shift anymore.
02:45And Kane, he doesn't care.
02:46He blocked your mate bond a long time ago.
02:48So why are you still sitting in the Luna's seat?
02:50Her words were sharp and mostly true.
02:52My wolf had faded too far for me to shift.
02:54But she got one thing wrong.
02:55Kane didn't block our bond.
02:56I did.
02:57The young she-wolf worried I'd get angry,
02:59grabbed Selina's arm and tried to pull her away.
03:01I didn't care.
03:02I had already decided I wouldn't be sad over him.
03:04I wouldn't fight another woman for him.
03:06He wasn't worth it.
03:07Selina could have steadened herself,
03:09but her body tipped backward and she fell hard to the ground.
03:12Kane saw her through the glass wall of the conference room.
03:15He stopped the meeting mid-sentence,
03:19walked out, scooped her into his arms,
03:21and checked her for injuries.
03:23Who did this?
03:24His alpha era crashed down like a mountain.
03:27The low-ranking she-wolf went white with fear.
03:29I knew he would never lay a fander on me.
03:31So I stepped forward.
03:32I did.
03:33So what?
03:34She had it coming.
03:35Selina curled into Kane's arms,
03:36face full of hurt.
03:38She cried.
03:39You're right.
03:39I brought this on myself.
03:40I fell in love with someone I shouldn't have.
03:42I deserve to be humiliated.
03:44I deserve to be called a homewrecker.
03:46But as long as you need me,
03:47I'll stay by your side forever.
03:48No one can take me away from you.
03:50She cried so prettily.
03:52Even saying something that absurd,
03:54she sounded brave and sure of herself.
03:56Kane actually laughed.
03:59There, there.
04:00Look at you.
04:02Crying like a little kitten.
04:03He really was different with her.
04:06Today's my birthday.
04:08I want one million dollars.
04:11Yes, all I wanted was enough to pay for the treatment.
04:14To ease the pain in my final days.
04:16Everyone in the pack knew.
04:18Even though I was his wife,
04:19the Luna of this pack,
04:21every time I needed money or resources,
04:23I had to ask him for it.
04:24That was our deal before the bond.
04:26He wanted me.
04:27I wanted his money.
04:29Kane always hated that about me.
04:30Hated that I only loved money,
04:32not him.
04:32But in the past,
04:34no matter how much I asked for,
04:35he gave it without hesitation.
04:37This time, he smiled coldly.
04:39You want money?
04:40Fine.
04:41Apologize to Selena first.
04:43Kane wanted to spend a million dollars
04:44to buy my dignity,
04:45to purchase an apology for Selena.
04:49This was the first time he had ever used money
04:51to humiliate me for another woman.
04:52Maybe my emotions triggered something.
04:55The dying wolf inside me
04:56caroused in agony.
04:58Pain exploded up my spine.
05:01I could almost hear my own bones splintering.
05:04I dug my nails into my palms
05:06and forced the scream back down into my gut.
05:08I smiled.
05:11Keep the money.
05:12And then a thought crossed my mind.
05:14Kane,
05:15if one day you find out this money
05:17could have kept me alive a little longer,
05:19if you find out how much I suffered before I died,
05:22what would your face look like?
05:23I returned to the villa alone.
05:25The agony of wolf spirit deterioration
05:28tore through me.
05:29I collapsed onto the bed,
05:31curling into a trembling knot.
05:33Since I couldn't afford the moonstone essence,
05:35I had to dig through the cabinets
05:37for a pouch of slumberweed.
05:39Maybe,
05:39if I forced myself to sleep,
05:41the pain would be gone.
05:44The herbs pulled me under,
05:46dragging me into a dream of when I was 16.
05:49Back then,
05:50Kane had nothing.
05:51His grandfather had died unexpectedly,
05:53plunging the territory into civil war.
05:55The elders fractured,
05:56completely isolating Kane.
05:58His accounts were frozen.
06:00He was so poor,
06:01he couldn't afford a decent meal.
06:03But he loved me.
06:04On my birthday,
06:05we were too broke for a real cake.
06:07So we settled for a tiny cranberry cupcake,
06:09just a cheap one from a corner bakery.
06:11He took my hand
06:11and led me toward the display window
06:13of the pack's most exclusive boutique.
06:14He pointed at a princess birthday set,
06:16a tiara in stayed with moonstones,
06:17and a three-tiered cake decorated with gold leaf.
06:20Kane hugged me tightly from behind.
06:22One day I'm gonna take back the pack.
06:24You'll be my Luna,
06:25and I swear,
06:26I'm gonna give you the whole world,
06:28only the absolute best for you.
06:31In that moment,
06:32I felt like the luckiest mate alive.
06:35Through the fog of the slumberweed,
06:36a sharp ringing pulled me back.
06:38I fumbled for my phone.
06:40Elise.
06:41A familiar voice breathed my name over the line.
06:44Kane.
06:47I wanna...
06:47Elise!
06:49Elise!
06:50Hours later,
06:51the slumberweed wore off.
06:52Pain ripped me from my sleep.
06:54That was when I realized Kane was home.
06:56He hadn't been back to this villa in weeks,
06:58preferring to live in the estate he bought for Selina.
07:00Kane was leaning against the window,
07:01a glass of amber liquid in his hand.
07:02He was looking at me with a deep tenderness
07:04I hadn't seen in years.
07:05The moonlight spilled over his striking features.
07:08Right now,
07:09his gaze held none of his usual
07:10tyranonite pressure.
07:12As I stumbled past him
07:13to look for more slumberweed,
07:15Kane caught my wrist.
07:16Ilis.
07:17You've gotten so incredibly thin lately.
07:20Why?
07:20His tone was laced with concern,
07:22as if he still loved me.
07:23But I felt nothing,
07:25not when his collar reeked of his human mistress.
07:27I snatched my hand back.
07:29That is none of your business.
07:30His face hardened.
07:32I could feel his inner wolf buckling,
07:34but he forced it down.
07:36My steps faltered as I walked into the living room.
07:38Sitting on the marble island was a lavish custom cake.
07:40Next to it were several cranberry cupcakes we used to eat.
07:42That bakery was hours away.
07:44Even running at his absolute limit,
07:45it was a four-hour trip.
07:46The phone call wasn't a dream.
07:47He had stayed awake all night to get this for me.
07:49But I was dying.
07:50I didn't need a cake anymore.
07:51Elise, are you messing with me?
07:53Kane frowned,
07:54grabbing my arm again.
07:55I didn't forget your birthday.
07:57I just...
07:58He tried to explain that pack negotiations had kept him tied up.
08:02I cut him off.
08:06You're right.
08:07I was messing with you.
08:08So what?
08:09You're pathetic.
08:11I say I want a cake and you run all the way to the border like an obedient dog.
08:14You're just as pathetic now as you were back then.
08:17I brought it up on purpose.
08:19It was the memory Kane wanted dead.
08:21At sixteen, his grandfather passed,
08:23and a pack rebellion stripped him of everything.
08:25He fell from Alpha Air to a hunted rogue,
08:27his absolute rock bottom,
08:29when he couldn't even afford a cheap slice of cake.
08:31He grabbed my collar and yanked me against him.
08:33Then he lifted me, throwing me onto the bed.
08:35He pinned me down, kissing me hard.
08:36Kane, get off me!
08:38You're disgusting!
08:39My resistance only made him rougher.
08:40He bit my shoulder,
08:42leaving a deep mark right next to my faded mating mark.
08:44Why do you always have to push me away?
08:46I dropped everything today.
08:48I ran for hours just to get you what you wanted,
08:50and you use it to tear me apart.
08:52I stared back in silence.
08:53Neither of us surrendered.
08:55Finally, Kane let out an exhausted sigh.
08:57Elise, what am I supposed to do with you?
08:59He leaned down, his lips hovering inches from mine.
09:01A shrink ringtone shattered the silence.
09:04Kane flinched.
09:04It was Selina.
09:05He hesitated, but his hand moved to answer it.
09:07Her panicked voice echoed from the speaker.
09:09Kane, I'm at the bar alone.
09:11Some guys are trying to hit on me.
09:12Please, can you come pick me up?
09:14He didn't reply immediately.
09:15He kept his eyes locked on mine.
09:17Elise, beg me.
09:19Just ask me to stay.
09:21I looked him dead in the eyes.
09:22Kane, you're not worth it.
09:24He let out a bitter laugh, returning to the call.
09:29Selina, I'm coming.
09:31He grabbed his coat and walked out.
09:33I watched the dust settle in the room.
09:36Just nine more days.
09:37The news tore through pack circles by morning.
09:40Alpha Kane had gotten into a bar fight with a human for Selina.
09:44It was the first time the notoriously private Alpha had ever made headlines.
09:48And it was all over a woman.
09:49A swarm of paparazzi waited at my gates.
09:52The second I stepped out, cameras flashed.
09:55Luna Elis, do you have a statement on last night's incident?
09:57Did you even know about her?
09:58Watching Alpha Kane spoil his mistress, do you think you're the one to blame?
10:02I had no intention of engaging, but that last question made me halt.
10:06The only people responsible are the cheater and the homewrecker, not me.
10:10Suddenly, a human reporter shoved her way to the front.
10:13The press pass read, Nicole Scott, Urban Wolf Herald.
10:16I heard you dumped him when he was poor.
10:18Then, when he became a powerful alpha, you schemed your way into marrying him.
10:23Now that he's found true love, you dare call her a homewrecker?
10:26Aren't you playing the victim?
10:28A human reporter?
10:29Let me guess.
10:30You're friends with Selina.
10:32Kane forced my hand in marriage.
10:33Do you honestly think I wanted to be his wife?
10:37If you didn't want the mate bond, then why don't you sign the mate rejection papers now?
10:41I opened my mouth, fully at sand intending to use this broadcast to announce my formal
10:45rejection of the mate bond.
10:47But before a word left my lips, a wave of vestrigo slammed into my brain.
10:52The world tilted.
10:54My inner wolf convulsed.
10:56Look at you, you're bleeding from sheer rage.
10:57I took a breath, using a tissue to wipe the black blood from my lip.
11:01I steadied my knees and looked at the camera.
11:03I'm not angry, I am sick.
11:05I am dying.
11:06Wolf spirit deterioration.
11:07End stage.
11:07Sometimes I bleed a little.
11:08The courtyard froze.
11:10The human reporter didn't grasp the gravity of those words.
11:13But the faces of the werewolf reporters drained of color.
11:16Every wolf knew what that meant.
11:18Less than 10 days to live.
11:26Oh, come on.
11:28Playing the victim card again?
11:30By the next day, the video of me being mobbed by reporters went viral across the internet.
11:34The footage of me bleeding black blood terrifyingly calm as I stated,
11:38I am dying, was replayed millions of times.
11:40The comment section exploded.
11:42Alpha Cain issued a decree from the Bloodflank Pack.
11:44There will be no divorce.
11:46Stop harassing my wife.
11:48Within hours, the video was quietly taken down.
11:52As for Nicole, she was permanently banished from pack territory.
11:55She even received anonymous threats, warning of dire consequences if she ever crossed me again.
12:02Some said Cain gave the order.
12:04Others claimed the pack elders stepped in.
12:07Either way, with Cain's so-called loyalty laid bare for the world to see,
12:11I was thrust into the eye of the storm.
12:12Almost immediately, a massive wave of online hate came crashing down on me.
12:17Elise is fucking disgusting.
12:19If she didn't want him, she should have just rejected the bond.
12:22The moon goddess doesn't force anyone.
12:24First love?
12:25Please.
12:26She's just another bitch.
12:27I can't believe Cain is actually still defending her.
12:30She isn't worth it.
12:31Just then, a single comment cut through the endless wheat of hate.
12:35I glanced at the profile picture.
12:37It was Daisy, my friend, and one of the very few in the pack who actually surely knew the truth.
12:43That year, I was 15.
12:45Cain was 16.
12:46The pack healer diagnosed my mother with wolf spirit deterioration.
12:49It was a genetic afflicti exclusive to the silver wolves.
12:52Mother said it wasn't just an illness.
12:54It was a curse.
12:55A curse her bloodline had carried for generations.
12:57It claimed her mother.
12:58It claimed her brother.
12:59They all succumbed to it.
13:01Worse, it was incurable.
13:02A fatal genetic defect passed down from generation to generation.
13:06If I ever had pups, the chances of them suffering the same fate were staggeringly high.
13:10When my mother woke up, her first words were a plea to break up with Cain.
13:14Mom!
13:15Cain loves me!
13:16He would never abandon me over a hereditary disease!
13:19I know he wouldn't abandon you, Elise, but have you thought about him?
13:22He is the alpha heir.
13:23One day he will carry the weight of the pack.
13:25How can you guarantee that your children won't inherit this agonizing death?
13:28He has nothing right now.
13:29His grandfather just died.
13:31His throne was stolen.
13:32If you tie him down with this curse, you will destroy him.
13:35Mom, I don't want to lose him.
13:37My mother wept.
13:39It was the last time I ever saw her cry.
13:41Three days later, I broke up with Cain.
13:43I told him I refused to tie myself to a penniless beggar.
13:46He stood in the pouring rain, his golden eyes locked onto mine.
13:49He didn't say a single word.
13:50Then, he turned around and walked away.
13:52That was ten years ago.
13:53I was preparing to visit my mother's grave one last time.
13:56With only five days left, I needed to tell her I couldn't come back.
14:01But before that, I had to go to Cain's office.
14:04My mother had always adored Cain.
14:07She sculpted two little clay wolves for us.
14:10Their tails were curled together like a hug, symbolizing that we would never be apart.
14:16I gave the gray wolf to Cain, but he preferred the silver one.
14:20Even now, that little silver wolf still sat in his office.
14:23I was terrified that once I died, Cainan would throw it into the trash.
14:27I had to take it back.
14:30When I pushed open the doors to Cain's office, he was re-watching the video of me bleeding.
14:35When he saw me, he threw his phone aside without saying or asking anything.
14:40Where is my silver wolf statue?
14:41Oh, you mean that little silver wolf?
14:43I mentioned it was cute a few days ago, so Cainan just gave it to me.
14:46How dare you give away what's mine?
14:48The last thing my mother ever made for me.
14:49And you just tossed it to your human whore?
14:51Oh, was that yours?
14:52My bad.
14:52It's been gathering dust for so long, I just assumed it was garbage.
14:55Something inside me snapped.
14:56A blinding rage flooded my senses.
14:59Cain didn't dodge.
15:00Blood slid down his brow.
15:01Are you insane?
15:02You attacked an alpha!
15:05Selina, give it back to her.
15:07Stomping her feet in fury, Selina stormed out.
15:09A minute later, she returned.
15:10Her fist clenched around the silver wolf.
15:12She hurled it at my feet.
15:13Here, take your garbage and get out!
15:16The silver wolf slammed against the floor.
15:18The head snapped off.
15:19The carved tail shattered into three pieces.
15:21The statue was broken.
15:22And inside my chest, something vital finally snapped with it.
15:25My dying inner wolf let out a despairing howl.
15:28A sharp ringing pierced my mind.
15:29I lunged forward and slapped Selina across the face.
15:32That was the only thing my mother left me!
15:33How dare you break it!
15:34I grabbed her by the hair, ready to beat her to the ground.
15:36Suddenly, a massive hand clamped around my wrist.
15:39Cain.
15:39He stepped between us, shielding his mistress like a stone wall.
15:42I looked at my fated mate standing there protecting another woman.
15:44And the dam finally broke.
15:46Tears flooded my vision.
15:47Cain, you know I'm dying.
15:49Why do you still have to hurt me, you absolute bastard?
15:51Seeing my despair, Cain let out a sigh.
15:53He reached out, as if to wipe the tears from my face.
15:55First it was the cupcake.
15:56Now you say you're dying?
15:58Ellis, you don't need to play the victim.
15:59Your tears won't fool me.
16:00Finish, a drop of black blood fell from my chin, landing directly onto the back of his
16:03hand.
16:04Black blood.
16:04The undeniable omen of wolf spirit deterioration.
16:07The bleeding accelerated.
16:08The world faded to black.
16:09The flame of my inner wolf was abruptly blown out.
16:12Without warning, I crumpled to the floor.
16:14Cain caught me before I could hit the ground.
16:16Get the pack healers!
16:17Now!
16:17I'd never seen him panic.
16:18But now, he could only stare in horror as my black blood rapidly soaked his white shirt.
16:22I lay limp in Cain's arms.
16:24Black blood spilling from my nose and sliding down my jaw.
16:26I had never heard him sound like that.
16:27The invincible alpha of the blood flag pack was shaking, actually shaking, as if there
16:30were a wounded pup howling inside him.
16:32Cisina stood frozen in the corner.
16:33Her lips parted, but one look from Cain stopped her cold.
16:35Murder blazed in his eyes.
16:37She stumbled back without another word.
16:39Cain scooped me up and ran.
16:40The coraways blurred.
16:41His heartbeat thundered against my cheek.
16:43Wild and unseavened ribs from the inside.
16:45He kept looking down at me as he ran.
16:47My blood smeared across his white shirt.
16:48His golden eyes, but all that came out my pale face.
16:51He tried to say my name.
16:52One thought drifted through me, so he does know how to be afraid.
16:55The harsh lights of the pack inferminary stab into my eyes.
16:58Healers rushed in and transferred me onto a steel treatment bulb.
17:01Tubes.
17:01Fine needles.
17:02Glowing vials.
17:03Everything blurred.
17:04You need to wait outside.
17:05I'm not leaving.
17:05I forced my eyes open and looked at him.
17:07The face that had once been heartbreakingly handsome was now streaked with tears.
17:11He was crying.
17:11The healers flooded my veins with Moonstone Essence.
17:14Syringe after syringe.
17:15No hesitation.
17:16Moonlit liquid burned through my bloodstream.
17:18The pain of my inner wolf eased.
17:20The pain eased.
17:21Not gone.
17:22But I knew better.
17:22In the end stage, Moonstone Essence could only dull the agony.
17:26It could not save me.
17:27Kane stayed beside my bed.
17:28Three days.
17:29Three nights.
17:30No sleep.
17:31No pack affairs.
17:32No answering Selina's calls.
17:33Whenever I clawed my way back to conscious, he was there in the chair beside me, staring
17:37at me like he was terrified that one blink would lose me forever.
17:40I looked at the dark, heavy circles bruising the skin under his eyes and the rough stubble
17:44shadowing his jaw, and suddenly it all felt a little ridiculous.
17:49Kane, you know I'm dying.
17:50You are not dying.
17:53I've already ordered the pack healers to source the best medicine from across the globe.
17:57You'll have all the Moonstone Essence you need.
17:59I'll hire the greatest pack healers alive!
18:01It's no use.
18:02The end stage of the wolf spirit deterioration.
18:05You know what that means.
18:07There is no cure.
18:08His eyes went completely bloodshut.
18:10He shot to his feet.
18:11The heavy chair rushed backward onto the floor with a violent thud.
18:14When did you find out?
18:15Why didn't you tell me sooner?
18:16I let the silence stretch for a moment before I answered.
18:19I've known for a long time my mother died of the exact same illness.
18:23You should remember that.
18:24Of course he remembered this.
18:26Back then, I walked away from him right after her diagnosis.
18:29My mother was terrified I would drag him down, terrified our future children would inherit
18:33the cursed genes.
18:35She forced me to leave him.
18:36All he knew was that I had suddenly turned on him.
18:39I don't love you anymore.
18:40I'm not spending my life with a penniless loser.
18:43He had hated me for ten years for that.
18:45That one million.
18:47When you asked me for a million dollars that day, it was to pay for the medicine?
18:51I didn't answer.
18:52My silence was all the confirmation he needed.
18:54A violent crack.
18:56His fist slammed into the wall that a crack spider webbed across the solid plaster.
19:01Thick blood beginning from his torn knuckles.
19:03Why didn't you tell me?
19:04Why did you mute the make-bond?
19:05Why did you thirded shut me out?
19:07You would rather die than tell me the truth?
19:09Elise, did you feel nothing at all?
19:12I looked at his furious, agonized face.
19:15Suddenly, I smiled.
19:16Because if the make-bond was still open, it would hurt you.
19:19My inner wolf is dying piece by piece.
19:21That agony would crawl right through the make-bond.
19:23It would force you to feel every second of it.
19:25You couldn't handle that can.
19:27And neither could I.
19:28Not the physical pain, but the thought of making you suffer through it with me.
19:31So I muted the make-bond.
19:33I carried it alone.
19:34His expression went completely slack.
19:36It was like someone had driven a blade straight into his chest.
19:38Besides, even if the make-bond was open,
19:41Even if I told you, would you have believed me?
19:44I told you I was dying, and you said I was playing the victim.
19:47I asked you for money, and you told me to apologize to Selena first.
19:51He looked like I'd hit him.
19:53He stood there, completely gutted.
19:55I kept my face turned towards the cold wall, so incredibly tired.
19:58And I never wanted to look into his eyes again.
20:00And I never wanted to look into his eyes again.
