Short filmTranscript
00:00I was an Omega adopted by the Beta.
00:03At the mating ceremony, the Alpha's heir chose me as his mate.
00:12My sister was furious and left the pack.
00:16When she was found she fell into the forest, naked.
00:23My adoptive parents held back their grief.
00:26Instead, they gave me a grand wedding.
00:30I thought it was fate giving me a new life.
00:32But on the day I found out I was pregnant, everything collapsed.
00:36My brother was together with the elders and accused my mate of betraying the pack.
00:40Saying he had leaked the pack's secrets, they exiled him from the pack.
00:53Overnight, I went from the future Luna to the sinner who killed her own sister and destroyed the pack.
01:00They drove me insane.
01:03In complete despair, I jumped into the silver chamber.
01:10But when I opened my eyes again, I was back at the day of the mating ceremony, the moment the
01:15Alpha's heir was choosing his mate.
01:17Aurora, quick look at my hair.
01:18Does it look good?
01:21I glanced at her blankly, and that was when it hit me.
01:25I had been reborn.
01:26In my last life, I thought she asked that just to make my adoptive parents proud.
01:31I never realized that hidden inside was her love for the Alpha's heir, Ethan.
01:38You're the prettiest one here.
01:40You'll definitely come Ethan's mate.
01:42Clara lightly smacked my arm, pretending to scold me.
01:46Then, I took off my wolf fang necklace and placed it around her neck.
01:51What are you doing?
01:52Isn't this the thing you treasure the most?
01:55I smiled faintly.
01:56She was right.
01:57As an Omega, this was the only thing that truly belonged to me.
02:01But they had raised me for ten years.
02:03I owed them that much.
02:07It suits you.
02:09They say Ethan is an upright wolf, and very handsome.
02:12You two would be perfect together.
02:15Clara blushed and started playfully shoving me.
02:17Just then, word spread that Ethan was about to enter the hall.
02:21My body swayed.
02:24Aurora, what's wrong?
02:26Your face looks terrible.
02:28I'll take you to the healer.
02:32Clara sounded panicked and tried to guide me toward the door.
02:36Relax.
02:36I'm fine.
02:37I just need some fresh air.
02:38If Mom and Dad find out we both skipped the ceremony,
02:40they'll definitely chase us around and beat us.
02:43Come on, Clara.
02:44Just let me sneak away for a bit.
02:47I had just stepped outside the main doors
02:49when a sudden commotion broke out behind me.
02:52I still couldn't help it.
02:53I turned back for one quick look.
02:55That familiar figure was just as dazzling as ever.
02:58Father, I already said I don't.
03:01Ethan stopped mid-sentence because in the crowd,
03:04he sensed the presence of the Wolfang necklace.
03:10He walked straight towards Clara, step by step.
03:13Who are you?
03:14I've chosen you.
03:15I quietly closed the door and pressed a hand tightly against my chest.
03:19It still hurt.
03:20But when I thought about the shy smile on Clara's face just now,
03:23I realized maybe it was finally time to let go.
03:26In my last life, Ethan chose me at first sight.
03:31My adoptive parents were so happy they couldn't sleep all night.
03:35They rushed to have new clothes made for me
03:37and even held a grand ceremony.
03:39My brother Lucas ran around non-stop,
03:42handling every little detail himself.
03:43Over there!
03:44Get the flowers!
03:45Back then, the whole family was genuinely happy for me.
03:52No one noticed that something was wrong with Clara.
03:55But after the wedding, she disappeared.
03:58My parents searched everywhere,
03:59but the only news they got was that she had died a terrible death.
04:03They hurried through her funeral,
04:04then comforted me and told me to go ahead with the ceremony with Ethan.
04:09Clara died out there.
04:11From now on, you're our only daughter.
04:14You must live a happy life.
04:17With tears in my eyes,
04:19I swore I would take care of them for the rest of their lives.
04:22But I never expected Lucas to completely change after that day.
04:26He secretly contacted the pack elders who opposed the Alpha.
04:31After gaining their support,
04:32he framed Ethan and drove me to my death.
04:35I shook my head,
04:36telling myself things would be different now.
04:38Ethan wouldn't be exiled from the pack this time.
04:41Clara had already been his mate.
04:43She wouldn't storm off in anger.
04:45Their ending would change.
04:46It had to.
04:47I turned to go home,
04:48but ran straight into someone.
04:51Lucas stood there,
04:52his eyes bloodshot as he glared at me.
04:54I was just one step late,
04:57and you still managed to pull it off, didn't you?
05:01What are you talking about?
05:03Ethan chose Clara.
05:04They're celebrating inside right now.
05:06You should go join the ceremony too.
05:07Lucas froze.
05:09Without thinking further,
05:10he rushed into the banquet hall.
05:12Over the next few days,
05:14my adoptive parents were busy helping Clara prepare for everything.
05:18Except Lucas.
05:20He watched my every move like a hawk,
05:22as if guarding against me.
05:24One evening,
05:25my adoptive mother called me over.
05:27Aurora, don't worry.
05:28Next year you'll find your own mate.
05:30He'll surely be an outstanding wolf too.
05:32I'm just worried about Clara.
05:34With that temper of hers,
05:36can she really handle the responsibilities of a future Luna?
05:39I lowered my eyes.
05:40A sharp pain stabbed my chest.
05:42Mom.
05:45I don't need a mate.
05:47I'll stay by your ever and take care of you and dad.
05:50The mating ceremony is already over.
05:53Everything's decided.
05:55Aurora?
05:55Or do you think that as long as they aren't marked yet,
05:57you still have a chance with someone who doesn't belong to you?
06:01My adoptive mother's face darkened.
06:06Lucas!
06:07How can you talk to Aurora like that?
06:10She's your sister!
06:11But Lucas ignored her and stormed inside.
06:15Don't think I don't know what you're plotting.
06:17Aurora,
06:18I'm telling you right now,
06:19give it up!
06:20Ethan didn't choose you.
06:21You're not his mate.
06:23I couldn't understand where all his hatred came from.
06:25Just then Clara walked in,
06:27shooting Lucas a scolding look.
06:29She pushed a plate of venison into my arms.
06:31Aurora,
06:32eat this.
06:33The venison is really good.
06:35But Lucas snatched the plate away.
06:38Clara,
06:38you have no idea what she's really thinking.
06:40What if she steals Ethan from you?
06:42Then you'll have no one to cry to.
06:46She linked her arm through mine affectionately.
06:49Stop talking nonsense.
06:49If Aurora hadn't given me the Wolffang necklace,
06:51Ethan might have cancelled the ceremony that day.
06:54He even asked me where the necklace came from.
06:56Said it was special,
06:57and it suited me.
06:58Lucas froze for a moment,
06:59then suddenly turned and ran out.
07:01But the next day,
07:02Ethan showed up at our house with gifts.
07:04It just so happened that I had been planting flowers in the backyard.
07:08Covered in dirt,
07:09I went to open the door.
07:11The moment it opened,
07:12I met Ethan's stunned gaze.
07:14Who are you?
07:16How come I didn't see you at the mating ceremony that day?
07:19Before I could even speak,
07:21Lucas rushed out and stepped in front of me.
07:24She's an Omega we adopted ten years ago.
07:25She doesn't know much about manners.
07:27Sorry you had to see that.
07:28Why don't you go wash up already?
07:29You're covered in mud.
07:30Are you trying to embarrass Mom and Dad?
07:33An Omega?
07:34How could that be?
07:35There was confusion in his voice.
07:37Something I couldn't quite understand.
07:40Just then,
07:41Clara saw Ethan and hesitantly pulled him aside.
07:44They spoke in low voices.
07:46From where Lucas and I stood,
07:48we couldn't hear what they were saying.
07:50But after Ethan said a few words,
07:52Clara's eyes suddenly lit up.
07:55The tension on Lucas' face finally eased.
07:58Yesterday,
07:59I spoke too harshly.
08:00I'm sorry.
08:01I looked up at him in surprise.
08:04You can see it too.
08:06Clara and Ethan,
08:07they're perfect for each other.
08:09Aurora,
08:10I'm begging you.
08:11Please don't get between them, okay?
08:13Those words made everything clear.
08:15Lucas had been reborn too.
08:17That was why he'd been watching me all the time.
08:19Afraid I'd steal the werewolf Clara loved.
08:22Don't worry.
08:23All I want is to repay Mom and Dad for raising me
08:25and see Clara happy.
08:28That's good.
08:29That's good.
08:30Then our whole family can finally have a happy ending.
08:33I went back to my room.
08:34I slowly drifted off to sleep.
08:36But before dawn even broke,
08:38my door was kicked open.
08:41Aurora!
08:41You little bastard!
08:42You lied to me!
08:43I knew you wouldn't give up so easily!
08:45Tell me,
08:46where did you trick Clara into going?
08:48I didn't!
08:48I've been sleeping in my room!
08:50But Lucas didn't listen to a single word.
08:53He shoved me hard against the wardrobe.
08:55You're still lying!
08:56Clara disappeared early this morning.
08:58Who else could it be but you,
09:00you jealous bitch?
09:01Just because Ethan looked at you a little yesterday,
09:03you couldn't hold yourself back,
09:05could you?
09:07Clara was clearly happy yesterday.
09:10Why would she suddenly disappear?
09:14Lucas, what are you doing?
09:16Let go of your sister.
09:18Mom!
09:19Clara is missing!
09:20She's jealous!
09:21That's why she hid Clara!
09:22My adoptive parents turned to look at me.
09:24Confusion in their eyes.
09:26Aurora?
09:27Are you upset because Clara found a mate?
09:30I understand.
09:31You two sisters have always been close.
09:35But what if Clara runs into rogues out there alone?
09:38Listen to me.
09:38Tell us where she is.
09:39I stared at them in disbelief.
09:41Ten years of living together,
09:42and just because of Lucas' accusation,
09:45they were already convinced I had hidden Clara.
09:47Seeing them taking his side only made Lucas more reckless.
09:50He even pulled out a silver knife and pressed it against my face.
09:54Where is Clara?
09:56Talk!
09:58If you keep being stubborn,
10:00don't blame me for carving up that seductive face of yours.
10:04Once you're ugly,
10:05let's see what you'll use to steal someone else's mate.
10:08I looked at his bloodshot eyes in despair.
10:11My heart finally went cold.
10:13Go ahead, I really don't know.
10:14You're asking for death!
10:18But my adoptive father grabbed his arm.
10:21Enough.
10:21Clara is missing.
10:23We should go out and find her.
10:24If we still can't find her by morning,
10:26we'll gather the whole pack to search.
10:30Lucas shoved me forward,
10:32practically dragging me out the door.
10:33Don't think I don't know where those rogues hide!
10:38If you really are behind this,
10:40I'll skin you alive.
10:42He dragged me along the entire way,
10:44kicking open door after door.
10:46But after a whole night,
10:48we found nothing.
10:49Dawn came.
10:50I hadn't even put on shoes.
10:51Bottoms of my feet were torn open and bleeding.
10:54Soon the whole pack learned that Clara was missing.
10:57Everyone came out to help search.
11:02Time passed,
11:03and Lucas finally lost control.
11:07Do you think that if Clara disappears,
11:09you can take her place?
11:10Dream on!
11:11If we can't find Clara,
11:13then you'll die here by this well,
11:14and be buried with her.
11:16Half my body tipped forward.
11:18Below me was black water,
11:19so deep I couldn't see the bottom.
11:21Just then,
11:22from an empty house not far away,
11:24a strange sound suddenly came out.
11:29The whole pack is out looking for Clara,
11:32and someone's having an intimate
11:33endangerment around here?
11:40After I deal with them,
11:41you're next Aurora.
11:42I collapsed on the ground,
11:43watching as he kicked the door open.
11:45The next second,
11:46Lucas's angry screaming suddenly stopped.
11:49The brick slipped from his hand
11:50and hit the ground.
11:51I held onto the edge of the well
11:52and barely managed to stand up.
11:54Then I dragged my bleeding feet
11:56toward the house.
11:57But just as I got close,
11:59Lucas hurriedly slammed the door shut.
12:03Aurora, why did you come over here?
12:04This is my fault.
12:06I got carried away.
12:07I completely forgot Clara.
12:09She was going out to have some fun
12:10for a couple of days.
12:11My mind just blanked out.
12:13Your feet are hurt, right?
12:15Come on, I'll take you home
12:15and put some medicine on them.
12:18Seeing his sudden change in attitude
12:19only made me more curious.
12:21Who was inside that house
12:22that scared Lucas so much?
12:24Before I could ask,
12:25Lucas rushed back over
12:26and lifted me straight off the ground,
12:28throwing me over his shoulder.
12:30The motion made my head spin.
12:31Put me down!
12:32Who's inside?
12:34Aurora, don't shout.
12:35I'm begging you.
12:36Just pretend you didn't see anything today.
12:37Didn't hear anything, okay?
12:39For our family.
12:39For mom and dad.
12:40And for Clara.
12:41My heart sank.
12:42For Clara?
12:44Could the werewolf inside
12:45really be Clara?
12:46But wasn't she supposed to be
12:47preparing for her wedding?
12:49How could she be in a place like that
12:50with some male wolf?
12:52Lucas carried me all the way back home.
12:54In the yard,
12:55my adoptive parents
12:56and several PAC members
12:57were anxiously pacing around.
12:59The moment they saw us,
13:01my adoptive mother rushed over.
13:02Did you find her?
13:04What happened to Aurora's foot?
13:06Lucas put me down.
13:08The moment my feet touched the ground,
13:10a sharp pain shot through me
13:11and I almost collapsed.
13:14Mom, dad, it's fine.
13:17I just remembered wrong.
13:19Lucas let out a dry laugh
13:20and stepped in front of the PAC member team
13:22you trying to zoe over.
13:26Everyone can go home now.
13:27Sorry for making you all
13:29run around for nothing.
13:30Clara said she,
13:31uh,
13:32since she's about to become
13:33the heir's mate,
13:34she's feeling nervous
13:35and wanted some time alone,
13:37so don't worry.
13:38She'll come back on her own
13:39in a couple of days.
13:40The PAC members exchanged looks,
13:42clearly annoyed.
13:43Becoming the alpha heir's mate
13:44is an honor.
13:45What's she nervous about?
13:46Exactly.
13:46We ran around all night for nothing.
13:48I still have work to do.
13:49After a lot of talking,
13:51he finally sent everyone
13:52out of the yard.
13:53Once all the outsiders were gone,
13:55my adoptive father
13:56slammed his hand on the table.
13:58This is ridiculous.
14:00Is Ethan is coming tomorrow
14:02to discuss the wedding
14:03and she runs off to be alone?
14:05My adoptive mother, however,
14:07let out a long sigh of relief.
14:09Thank God.
14:10She scared me to death.
14:11She's grown up already
14:12and still pulling stunts
14:13like disappearing.
14:15Just wait until she comes back.
14:17I'll teach her a lesson.
14:18Lucas wiped the sweat
14:20from his forehead
14:20and pushed my parents
14:21into the house,
14:22trying to calm them down.
14:24I stood alone in the yard,
14:25lowering my head
14:26to look at the blisters
14:27torn open on the soles
14:28of my feet,
14:29blood still seeping out.
14:30That soft moan
14:31from the empty house earlier
14:33I had heard it clearly.
14:34Clara and I had grown up together.
14:36Even with my eyes closed,
14:37I would recognize her voice.
14:39In this life,
14:40she hadn't run away from home
14:42like she did in the previous one.
14:43Instead,
14:44in broad daylight,
14:45she was fooling around
14:46with someone in an abandoned house.
14:48Wasn't Ethan the one she loved?
14:50Which meant,
14:51the one in that empty house
14:52had to be Ethan.
14:53My heart felt like
14:54it was being torn apart.
14:55I clutched my chest
14:56and crouched down.
14:57But only a few minutes later,
14:59Lucas came out again
15:00wearing a different coat
15:01and quietly slipped out
15:02the back door.
15:03He didn't notice me
15:04crouching there.
15:05I quickly tore a strip of cloth
15:07from the laundry line
15:08and wrapped it around
15:09my bleeding feet.
15:10Then I silently followed him.
15:12Hiding beside the wall,
15:13I saw Lucas slap Clara
15:14hard across the face.
15:16You're about to be Ethan's mate
15:18and you had to make
15:18a scene like this right now?
15:21Good thing I was the one
15:22who found out.
15:23If mom, dad,
15:24or the pack members saw this,
15:25would you have any shame
15:26left at all?
15:27Clara's clothes were messy,
15:28her hair disheveled,
15:30tear scones still lunged
15:31to her face.
15:32But when she saw me
15:33standing behind Lucas,
15:34she froze for a moment.
15:37You can hit me
15:38or yell at me if you want.
15:40Just don't scare Elora.
15:42Clara, have you lost your mind?
15:44Lucas was still trembling,
15:46his face full of anger
15:47and disappointment.
15:48Ethan is coming tomorrow
15:50and you're here
15:51with another male wolf!
15:52He stopped mid-sentence.
15:54Even he couldn't bring himself
15:56to finish it.
15:58Lucas, it's not what you think.
16:01Then what is it?
16:02I saw it with my own eyes.
16:05I teamed your portrait.
16:06You still want to lie to me?
16:09I didn't!
16:11I was solving a problem!
16:12I didn't want to end up
16:13like last time,
16:14dying on outside
16:15for no reason!
16:16The moment she said
16:17that both Lucas and I froze,
16:19she, she had been reborn too?
16:20Lucas staggered back two steps,
16:22disbelief written
16:23all over his face.
16:25You, you too?
16:26Clara nodded
16:27as tears streamed
16:28down her cheeks.
16:29I came back to this moment
16:30from the day Aurora died.
16:32I was afraid.
16:34Afraid those people
16:35would ruin me again.
16:36Afraid mom and dad
16:37would die from losing me.
16:38I didn't want to die.
16:41I just wanted to change
16:42all of it.
16:45But you can't solve it
16:47like this!
16:49Who was that man?
16:50Was it the bastard
16:51who ruined you
16:52in the last life?
16:53No.
16:55I never even saw
16:57their faces back then.
16:58It was too dark.
17:00And besides,
17:01before she could finish,
17:02a painful groan
17:03came from inside
17:04the warehouse.
17:05It was Leon
17:06from next door.
17:07And in the last life,
17:08rumors said
17:09he was one of the rogues
17:09who had violated Clara.
17:11Lucas!
17:12Why are you here?
17:14How did Clara
17:15end up with an idiot
17:16like you?
17:19I, it was Clara
17:21who came to find me.
17:22She, she said
17:23she's getting married soon
17:24and wanted me to
17:25stop bothering her
17:26in the future.
17:26She gave me
17:2750 silver coins.
17:28That's it?
17:29Leon paying him off
17:30might make sense,
17:30but Lucas clearly
17:31didn't believe him.
17:32It's true!
17:33I swear!
17:35I, I just
17:36took the money
17:36and promised
17:37to stay away from her.
17:38Then you suddenly
17:39barged in!
17:43It's true.
17:45I heard Leon
17:46had been telling people
17:46again that he wanted
17:47me to be his mate.
17:49I didn't know
17:50what else to do,
17:51so I thought
17:52paying him off
17:53would solve it.
17:54She thought
17:55she had handled
17:56everything perfectly,
17:57but a young she-wolf
17:58coming alone
17:59to meet an idiot
18:00like him
18:00using money
18:01to solve the problem,
18:02that was basically
18:03walking straight
18:03into a wolf's jaws.
18:05I could already
18:05guess what had
18:06happened in that
18:07warehouse earlier.
18:08Taking the money,
18:09Leon definitely
18:10hadn't behaved himself.
18:11Some touching
18:12and harassment
18:13were unavoidable.
18:14If Lucas
18:14hadn't arrived in time,
18:16the consequences
18:16would be
18:17unimaginable.
18:23you silly girl.
18:25Why are you so foolish?
18:27If something happens,
18:28you have me.
18:29Why would you
18:30come here alone?
18:32Clara burst into tears
18:33and threw herself
18:34into Lucas' arm.
18:34I stood to the side,
18:36the wounds on the
18:37soles of my feet
18:38burning with pain.
18:39All three of us
18:40had had come back,
18:41yet each of us
18:42carried our own secrets,
18:44doubting and hurting
18:44one another.
18:46Lucas kicked Leon away
18:47with one hard gun,
18:49then lifted me
18:50onto his back
18:51without another word.
18:53Let's go home.
18:53I'll treat your wounds first.
18:57When we got back,
18:58our adoptive parents
18:59were sitting inside
19:00the house,
19:01sighing anxiously.
19:04But when they saw
19:05that we were all safe,
19:06they didn't even
19:07scold Clara anymore.
19:08Early the next morning,
19:10the Alpha arrived
19:11with Ethan.
19:11The news spread
19:12through the pack
19:13in an instant.
19:14Members peeked
19:15over the fences
19:16and through the gates,
19:17throwing out
19:18endless words of envy.
19:20I was crouching
19:21by the well,
19:22washing up.
19:23When the water
19:23touched the wounds
19:24on my feet,
19:25a sharp pain
19:26shot through me.
19:28Clara was wearing
19:29the new red dress
19:30she had bought.
19:31Her face was covered
19:31with thick powder,
19:32but it couldn't hide
19:33the dark circles
19:33under her eyes.
19:34She was nervous.
19:35The handkerchief
19:36in her hands
19:36was almost twisted
19:37to pieces.
19:41Aurora,
19:42do I look alright
19:43like this?
19:45Don't worry.
19:46You're the prettiest
19:47girl in the whole pack.
19:49You'll get what you want.
19:50Lucas stood by the doorway
19:51and shot me
19:52an apologetic look.
19:53I understood.
19:54I didn't blame him.
19:55In this life,
19:56he hadn't hurt me.
19:57Clara was alive.
19:58Ethan was alive too.
19:59Everything was moving
20:00in the best possible direction.
20:02I had nothing to fear.
20:03Just then,
20:04the door opened.
20:05The Alpha walked in
20:06with a bright smile,
20:08Ethan following behind him
20:09with a cold expression.
20:10Ethan's mood today
20:12was clearly dark.
20:13His gaze swept
20:14across the room
20:15before finally landing
20:16on the wolf fang necklace
20:18around Clara's check.
20:19His brows fro in slightly.
20:21That tiny movement alone
20:22made Clara's legs weaken.
20:24She almost couldn't stand.
20:26Alpha,
20:27Ethan,
20:27welcome.
20:27Lucas quickly stepped forward
20:28to greet them,
20:29even shifting his body
20:30to block Ethan's view of me.
20:31I lowered my head,
20:32trying to shrink
20:33into the corner.
20:34The painful lesson
20:34from my last life
20:35told me one thing,
20:36stay as far away
20:37from Ethan as possible
20:38and everyone would be
20:39better off.
20:39But fate rarely listens.
20:41Ethan stepped past Lucas
20:43and walked straight
20:44toward Clara.
20:47Last time I asked you
20:48where that necklace came from,
20:49you never answered me.
20:51It was Al-
20:52Clara has had that necklace
20:53for years.
20:54It's her favorite.
20:59Really?
21:02Then tell me this.
21:04Ten years ago
21:05on that snowy day
21:05when you gave me
21:06that piece of venison,
21:08what did you say to me?
21:11Everyone around them froze.
21:13She looked at Lucas for help,
21:15then glanced toward me.
21:17And in that moment,
21:18I finally understood
21:19why Ethan had chosen his mate
21:21just by looking at a necklace.
21:28Because ten years ago,
21:29the one who saved him
21:30was me.
21:34That necklace had had been the token
21:36he left behind back then.
21:39And I had treasured it
21:40ever since.
21:43In my last life,
21:44Ethan recognized me
21:45because I casually
21:47repeated something
21:48he had said that day.
21:49But in this life,
21:50I gave the necklace to Clara
21:51and forgot about the little wolf
21:53from ten years ago.
21:54Ethan,
21:54that was so many years ago.
21:56Clara had a high fever back then.
21:58It's normal if she forgot some things.
22:00Forgot?
22:01Then she should at least remember
22:02who carried me three miles
22:04through the snow
22:04when my leg was frosted,
22:05right?
22:10Liar.
22:11What do you mean by that?
22:12Who are you calling a liar?
22:16It's normal to misremember
22:17things from childhood.
22:19Why humiliate my sister
22:20in front of everyone?
22:21Even he sounded unsure
22:22when he said it.
22:22His eyes were fixed
22:23straight on me.
22:26What's going on?
22:27Is the alpha's hair
22:28here to pick a fight?
22:29I knew it.
22:31Clara couldn't be that lucky
22:32to become the future Luna.
22:33See?
22:33Something's gone wrong.
22:34I looked at my adoptive parents,
22:36flustered and close to tears.
22:38I looked at Clara's pale face
22:40and trembling body
22:41and had been stretched
22:42in my tight string
22:43tootally loosened.
22:46Ethan,
22:47Clara isn't a liar.
22:49Everyone turned to look at me.
22:51Lucas shot me anxious looks,
22:53silently mouthing.
22:54Don't say anything stupid.
22:56I ignored him
22:56and kept looking at Ethan.
22:59Ten years ago,
23:00on that snowy day,
23:01Clara really was there
23:02when you were saved.
23:03Clara suddenly looked up at me,
23:05confusion filling her eyes.
23:06Ethan frowned.
23:07I smiled calmly.
23:09That day Clara had a high fever.
23:10When she saw you
23:11curled up in the corner,
23:12almost frozen,
23:13she gave you the only food
23:14she had on her.
23:15She told you,
23:16eat this.
23:17Once you eat,
23:17you won't feel cold anymore.
23:19The moment I said that,
23:20Ethan's body visibly trembled.
23:22But she was too sick
23:23and had no strength left.
23:25So she asked me to carry you
23:26for three miles
23:27and take you to the healer house.
23:29We're sisters.
23:30Saving you was something
23:31we did together.
23:32The courtyard fell
23:33completely silent.
23:34Even the pack members
23:35stopped whispering
23:36and held their breath.
23:37Ethan's eyes dropped
23:38to my limping foot,
23:39then lifted to meet mine again.
23:41His voice was a little horny.
23:42And the necklace?
23:43The necklace was the token
23:44you left behind.
23:45But I'm just an omega
23:46adopted by a beta.
23:48I shouldn't have kept it.
23:49The one who gave you food
23:50was Clara.
23:51The one who asked me
23:52to carry you
23:53was also Clara.
23:54That necklace
23:55originally belonged to her.
23:56Ethan,
23:57do you understand now?
23:58Clara is kind.
23:59She gave you
23:59the only food she had.
24:00I only helped a little.
24:01You didn't choose
24:02the wrong one.
24:03When I finished speaking,
24:04Lucas was completely stunned.
24:06Ethan looked at me
24:07for a long time,
24:08so long that I thought
24:09he might expose
24:09the truth again.
24:10But in the end,
24:11he said nothing.
24:12He simply turned to Clara.
24:13Since it's just a mendor standing,
24:14it's good that it's cleared up.
24:15The alpha behind him
24:17finally stepped forward
24:18with a cheerful laugh.
24:19He grabbed my hand
24:19and Clara's hand,
24:20placing them together.
24:22Good.
24:23Good girls.
24:24Both of you.
24:25Beta,
24:26you've raised
24:27two wonderful daughters.
24:28One kind,
24:30one loyal.
24:31Lucas's tense body
24:32finally relaxed.
24:33He walked over to me
24:34and whispered softly,
24:35Aurora,
24:36thank you.
24:37I shook my head.
24:38I hadn't helped anyone.
24:39I just wanted all of us
24:40to stay alive.
24:44After Alpha and Ethan left,
24:46the pack members
24:46crowded in to congratulate us.
24:48The house became noisy
24:50and lively,
24:51filled with laughter.
24:52No one mentioned
24:53the awkward moment earlier.
24:56I quietly went back
24:58into the room
24:59and sat by the bed.
25:00Looking at the splutty blisters
25:02on the bottom of my feet
25:03made my head spin.
25:04The door opened.
25:05Lucas walked in
25:06with a payment of hot water
25:08and a box of medicine.
25:10He knelt in front of me
25:11without a word
25:12and gently placed my feet
25:13into the warm water.
25:14The temperature was just right,
25:16washing over the wounds.
25:18I'm sorry.
25:20In the past,
25:22I was an idiot.
25:23The warm water
25:24rose over my ankles.
25:26Lucas's hands
25:27were very gentle.
25:28He used a cotton squab
25:29dipped in medicine
25:30to slowly clean the blood
25:31and small stones
25:32from the soles of my feet.
25:34After you jumped
25:35in the last life,
25:37I actually regretted it.
25:38Every night,
25:38I dreamed of you
25:39standing by my bed
25:40covered in blood
25:41asking me why.
25:43But I didn't dare
25:44think about it.
25:45I didn't dare admit it.
25:46So I took it all out on you.
25:48You were always
25:49obedient and weak.
25:51You wouldn't fight back,
25:52right?
25:53But Aurora,
25:53it really wasn't your fault.
25:55I was the coward.
25:57I was the bastard.
25:58I pushed all the blame
25:59onto you
25:59as if that would
26:00make me feel better.
26:01He raised his head.
26:02His eyes were bloodshot.
26:05Aurora,
26:06I'm sorry.
26:08He even slapped himself
26:09hard across the face.
26:10I shook my head.
26:11I didn't know
26:12what I was feeling.
26:12The things from my last life
26:14felt like a nightmare
26:15I could never wake from.
26:16And now,
26:17finally,
26:17someone was telling me
26:18it wasn't my fault.
26:19It's all in the past.
26:21Lucas didn't say anything else.
26:23He carefully bandaged my feet.
26:25Then he carried me
26:26back to the bed
26:27and tucked the blanket
26:28around me.
26:29Get some sleep.
26:30Clara's wedding
26:31is in a few days.
26:34Three days later,
26:36the wedding arrived.
26:37Before dawn,
26:39the entire pack
26:39was already bustling
26:41with excitement.
26:42My adoptive mother
26:43woke me early in the morning,
26:45happily dressing me
26:46in new clothes.
26:50Clara wore a bright red dress.
26:52She looked nervous
26:53but excited.
26:54She couldn't stop smiling.
26:56Aurora,
26:56come look.
26:57Is my hair messy?
27:00You look beautiful today.
27:02I helped smooth
27:03the loose strands
27:03by her temples.
27:05But Lucas's eyes
27:06kept drifting toward me.
27:08I knew he still felt guilty
27:09about that day,
27:10but I no longer cared.
27:12The three of us
27:13had finally found a path
27:14where we could all live.
27:16That was enough.
27:17The whole pack
27:18was filled with joy
27:19and everything went smoothly.
27:21My adoptive parents
27:22were smiling non-stop
27:23and Lucas finally showed
27:25a relaxed smile again.
27:30Halfway through the ceremony,
27:32Clara needed to change
27:33into another dress.
27:34I accompanied her
27:35back to the house.
27:39Clara?
27:41Everyone was still celebrating.
27:43No one noticed
27:44that Clara had disappeared.
27:45I searched frantically
27:46through the crowd
27:47and grabbed Lucas's arm.
27:48Lucas!
27:48Clara is gone!
27:50The smile on Lucas' face
27:52instantly frozen.
27:53We rushed out together.
27:55Only one thought
27:56filled my mind.
27:56The warehouse
27:57in the back mountain.
27:58I ran into the kitchen
28:00and grabbed a knife
28:00without thinking,
28:01shoving it into my pocket.
28:06Little beauty,
28:07you look amazing
28:08on your big wedding day.
28:09Too bad.
28:10I've been craving you
28:11for so long.
28:12Now I finally get
28:13to taste you.
28:14Luce's eyes turned red
28:15as he kicked the door
28:16again and again.
28:17By the time I reached
28:18the warehouse,
28:19Lucas was already there,
28:21kicking the rusty iron door
28:22like a madman.
28:23Open the door,
28:23Leon, you bastard!
28:24I didn't have his strength.
28:25I ran around to the back
28:26of the warehouse
28:27and saw a broken window.
28:28I smashed the remaining glass
28:30with my elbow
28:31and climbed inside,
28:32ignoring the cuts on my arm.
28:33The room was dim.
28:35Clara's red dress
28:36had been torn halfway open.
28:38Leon was pressing her down,
28:39one hand tightly
28:40covering her mouth.
28:41Damn bad luck.
28:43Last time you and your brother
28:44ruined my fun
28:45and now you dare
28:46come here to die?
28:48Clara shook her head desperately,
28:49tears streaming down her face.
28:51She finally remembered,
28:52this bastard was the one
28:53who destroyed her
28:54in the last life,
28:55but my mind
28:55had already gone blank.
28:57Just as Leon's hand
28:58reached under Clara's dress
28:59I rushed forward.
29:00I pulled the knife
29:01from my pocket
29:02and drove it straight
29:02into Leon's heart
29:03with all my strength.
29:04The cruel grin
29:05was still frozen on his face
29:06as his body collapsed
29:07to the ground.
29:08Warm blood splashed
29:09all over me.
29:11Clara stared at me,
29:12trembling in fear.
29:13Just then the iron door
29:14burst open,
29:15Lucas rushed in
29:16and froze at the sight.
29:19It has been five years
29:20since my sister disappeared.
29:22I finally discovered the truth.
29:24Soon my adoptive parents,
29:26Alpha's family
29:26and other pack members
29:27arrived as well.
29:29Everyone saw it.
29:30I stood in a pool of blood,
29:32still holding the knife.
29:33The pack council arrived soon after.
29:35The werewolf warriors
29:36took me away.
29:37The pack's rule was clear,
29:39members were not allowed
29:40to harm each other.
29:41Anyone who broke the rule
29:42would be punished.
29:43My adoptive mother
29:44fainted from crying.
29:47My adoptive father
29:49leaned against the wall,
29:50looking ten years older
29:51in a single night.
29:53He shoved through the crowd
29:54and blocked the warriors
29:55escorting me.
29:57Let her go!
29:58She didn't do it!
29:59I was the one
30:00who took the knife!
30:01I killed him!
30:02Take me instead!
30:03But the blood on my body
30:04was undeniable proof.
30:05The warriors pushed him aside
30:07and dragged me away.
30:08In this life,
30:09Clara kept her dignity.
30:11Everyone was safe.
30:13Our family
30:14had a complete ending.
30:16Those ten years
30:17of being raised by them,
30:18I had repaid it.
30:19I owed nothing anymore.
30:21It was worth it.
30:22Just as I was about
30:23to be taken away,
30:23Ethan pushed through the crowd
30:25and rushed forward.
30:26His eyes read
30:26as he stared at me.
30:27I remember everything.
30:29Ten years ago,
30:30the werewolf
30:30who gave me food
30:31and carried me three miles.
30:33It was you!
30:34There was no Clara!
30:36From beginning to end,
30:37it was only you!
30:42Aurora!
30:43I'll wait for you!
30:44The warriors pulled him back,
30:46but he kept staring at me.
30:48Five years later,
30:50the iron gate of the prison
30:51slowly opened.
30:52A tall figure stood there,
30:54straight and steady.
30:55He walked towards me
30:56step by step.
30:57Aurora,
30:58I'll wait for you.
31:00He once said that.
31:02And now,
31:03he had done it.
31:05Ethan.
31:06Hmm?
31:09Thank you for waiting.
31:10Thank you for giving me hope
31:11for these five years.
31:12Aurora,
31:12you deserve it.
31:13You deserve it.
31:15You
