Short filmTranscript
00:04I was once New York's most arrogant, the beloved third daughter of the Mafia Dawn.
00:09Now my wrists and ankles were locked in iron chains, pinned to a basement bed.
00:14The room was pitch black.
00:16I hadn't eaten or drunk anything in days.
00:18All I wanted was to die.
00:20A tall man came from the bedside.
00:23He poured a scorching aphrodisiac into my throat, and then forcibly pressed his body
00:28tightly against me.
00:32Had you not interfered, she'd still be mine.
00:34You're so desperate for this.
00:37I'll give you exactly what you want.
00:39After a brutal night of forced intimacy, my tears were streaming down my face.
00:43He let out a low, mocking laugh.
00:45Principessa Kara, look how far you've fallen.
00:48When I disregarded him, he had a swarm of beggars brought in.
00:52Do whatever they pleased with Miss Kara.
00:54My breath thin and fragile, I held his gaze in stubborn defiance.
00:58Kill me if you must.
01:00Why bother with cruel humiliation?
01:02The man in front of me was Elias Walker, the underboss who had put the new Dawn in power.
01:07He was also the man I had once chained to my side like a madman.
01:11He stared at me with unbridled hatred.
01:13Humiliation?
01:15What you once did to me, Miss Kara, was far worse.
01:18I perished in agony and shame.
01:21Blood from my broken body soaked the cold stone floor.
01:25After my death, he ordered my body dumped in a mass grave.
01:28When I opened my eyes again, I found Elias Walker fully stripped, locked inside an iron cage, and hung from
01:35above.
01:35To inflame his senses, the head maid poured a honeyed aphrodisiac all over his bare body.
01:41He let out a few soft, ragged gasps.
01:44I remember I had chained him to the bed with iron shackles, dosed him with heavy drugs, and violated him
01:49utterly, only to keep the proud Elias Walker by my side.
01:54After I spent the night tangled with him, he still tried to run away.
01:59At dawn the next day, I ordered my men to break his legs.
02:05It wasn't until his childhood sweetheart, Lila, finally returned that he was pulled out of the gutter.
02:10She took him to Don Valentino's estate, and dragged him from the brink of ruin.
02:15Later, Elias stood by Lila's side, and helped her seize power to reign as the underworld's sovereign queen.
02:21It wasn't until the dying breath that I understood.
02:24To him, my love was nothing but a burden and a chain.
02:28What new trick has Miss Kara come up with to torment me today?
02:31Familiar voice made my heart stumble.
02:33I came to my senses, and looked again at this devastatingly handsome man.
02:37And then I realized I'd been reborn.
02:40The damage was already done.
02:42I couldn't change what he thought of me.
02:44This time, I would let go of my paranoia and obsession, and choose to let them be together.
02:49Guards, release him!
02:51Now!
02:53Once they settled him into a chair, I knelt down and gently stroked his leg.
02:58Elias watched me coldly.
02:59The moment I drew back his pants, his eyes blazed with revulsion.
03:04He let out a cold laugh.
03:06Look at me now, and you still want me, Principessa?
03:09I didn't humiliate him the way I used to.
03:12Instead, I applied the ointment to the scarred skin on his leg, slow and careful, rubbing gently.
03:18He wore a faint look of shock.
03:20What is the meaning of this, Princess?
03:22I stand up, pointing straight at his leg.
03:25Your leg injury can be cured.
03:27Use topical healing ointment daily.
03:29Get targeted therapy and therapeutic massage, plus medicinal baths.
03:33Make a full recovery in three months.
03:35A flash of joy flickered in his eyes, only to dim instantly.
03:39Whether my leg heals or not, I am already a ruined man.
03:43What difference does it make?
03:44I lowered my head and kept my voice soft.
03:47You have extraordinary talent.
03:49You will be a pillar of this family one day.
03:52Don't sell yourself short.
03:54Elias scoffed, shooting me a sidelong glance.
03:57To him, it was utterly absurd that I, who had heard him, was now offering him comfort.
04:02I offered no rebuttal, only holding his gaze as I spoke softly.
04:07Lie down on the bed.
04:08Elias curled his lips into a mocking smile.
04:10Expression cold, he wheeled to the bed, braced himself, and inched onto the mattress.
04:16Slow, stiff, agonizing.
04:19He lay motionless, frigid, and drained.
04:21Do as you please, Princess.
04:23Just be quick.
04:25I am worn out.
04:26I caught my breath, then settled on the edge of the bed.
04:30Elias truly bore a face devastating enough to entrance all.
04:34Even reduced to such a wretched state, he still exuded an otherworldly cold pride.
04:39I slowly ran my fingers over his skin.
04:41Then my hands moved to unfasten his trousers next.
04:45Elias shut his eyes.
04:46It will sting.
04:48Hold on.
04:50Right after, I pressed a fine medical needle into the key trigger points on his leg.
04:54Elias' eyes snapped open.
04:56His face broke.
04:57Just for a second.
04:58He stared at my hands.
05:00What are you doing?
05:00Clearly, I'm giving you localized needling therapy.
05:04I'll release your damaged phagia with targeted pressure, paired with soft tissue massage.
05:08An hour of treatment each day will be enough.
05:10I said softly, this injury is my fault.
05:13From today on, I'll tend to your rehab and massage your muscles daily until you fully recover.
05:19Elias clenched his fist, his body turning taut and stiff.
05:23Is this some new ploy of yours?
05:24He seized my arm abruptly, holding me trapped beneath his piercing gaze.
05:29In his past life, I broke his legs, but he'd never been this shaken.
05:33Elias Walker had never feared torture, yet he feared kindness.
05:37Gentleness clouds the mind and slow tenderness kills.
05:40I gave him no explanation, merely focusing on his leg injury.
05:44I was Don Vito Sovino's daughter, raised in blood, betrayal, and cruelty.
05:48Yet I learned to become a doctor, so no matter who abandons me, I can save myself.
05:53In his past life, illness and broken legs destroyed Elias' spirit.
05:58He pushed Lila away, and she chose another man.
06:01Crushed by despair, he fell into darkness, growing into a ruthless and terrifying underboss.
06:06But the first time I ever saw him, he was strikingly handsome, cold pride written between his brows.
06:12Mastered the family's strategy.
06:14Been a poor genius with a mind that came once in a century.
06:18Yet later, I watched him caress his incurable legs beneath the dusk.
06:22Elias smiled, soundlessly.
06:25After that, he became the cleaner.
06:27Men called a monster.
06:28He knew deep down that he was no longer worthy of the girl he loved.
06:32So he drank the poison wine, in one long swallow.
06:36Now he sat across from me on the bed, our eyes locked.
06:39His gaze was dark and endless.
06:42Thank God.
06:42I'd returned when his legs could still be healed.
06:44I tossed his coat to him, my tone cold and detached.
06:49I have no interest in you anymore.
06:51Leave my estate once your leg has healed.
06:55I arranged for Elias Walker to recover in my private suite.
06:59Word spread instantly.
07:01Miss Kara had grown bored with him.
07:03The pretty Mr. Walker had fallen out of favor.
07:06I heard it and felt uneasy.
07:08I went to check on him.
07:10The winter air was cutting.
07:12But the private suite Elias occupied had no heater running at all.
07:16Elias sat at the mahogany table and was quietly immersed in a heavy old book.
07:21When he looked up, a strand of hair fell across his striking face.
07:25My heart slammed.
07:27Why has Miss Kara come here?
07:29I walked toward him.
07:30And then I reached out and touched the back of his hand.
07:33Exactly as I expected.
07:35Cold as ice.
07:37Why don't you have the heat on?
07:39Without the Principessa's favor,
07:41I am merely a discarded pawn
07:44in every soul's sight.
07:48I could not tell if it was just my mind playing tricks.
07:51Brutality lingered in Elias' smile,
07:53sending a cold shiver through me.
07:56That chilling gaze reminded me of his past self.
08:00Bloodthirsty, unforgiving.
08:01He crossed mountains of corpses,
08:03paving a bloody way for Lila to reign as the Donna.
08:07Your injury cannot be exposed to cold.
08:10The Rilishno whithed to the meath.
08:14Elias, and who touches you, answers to me.
08:17Tell me what you want.
08:19Every wish you make,
08:20I make it real.
08:22No one lays a hand on you unless I say so.
08:25Elias stared at me for a long moment.
08:28Miss Kara,
08:29I only need heat, pen, and paper.
08:32Only these?
08:33Those maids who mistreated you,
08:35what do you want done with them?
08:36Let them go without meat and heat
08:38for the next half a month.
08:39I smiled.
08:40This was the Elias I'd always known.
08:43In the last life,
08:44everyone called Elias a devil.
08:46But I understood he only lived by one rule.
08:49Good for good,
08:51evil for evil.
08:52Give back exactly what was given.
08:54Every cruel thing Elias ever did was to seize power for Lila.
09:00Not once did he act for himself.
09:02We drank the poison wine,
09:04in one long swallow.
09:06Even his final moments were filled with loving regret.
09:10Silly man.
09:12In his mind,
09:14I had always been the cruel Principessa who ruined his life.
09:18Only Lila had ever been his salvation.
09:21The moon was cold.
09:22The wind cut through the night.
09:24Why could he still not stand and walk?
09:26I lay in bed,
09:28turning the problem over and over.
09:30Was my technique insufficient?
09:32Or was there something wrong deeper in his heart?
09:35Then I heard someone quietly push open the door to my suite.
09:39Footsteps,
09:40slow.
09:40I kept my eyes shut and pretended to sleep.
09:43But I could feel a presence standing at my bedside.
09:46And a faint medicinal scent reached me.
09:48This was Elias.
09:50Why would he intrude in my chambers deep into the night?
09:53His leg injury had long healed.
09:55So why faint a limp?
09:57Elias sat on the edge of my bed,
09:58his gaze lingering on me for ages.
10:01My heart seized.
10:02Should I pretend to wake?
10:04With one faint, effortless tug,
10:06Elias undid the ribbon of my undergarment.
10:10His body pressed against my bare flesh,
10:13his warmth sinking deep within me,
10:15igniting all my senses.
10:17Amid the darkness,
10:18I finally dared to open my eyes.
10:20Elias,
10:21what are you doing?
10:23Miss Kara,
10:25tonight,
10:26I want you.
10:27Stay away.
10:29I have no desire for this.
10:35But he seized my hand in a firm grip,
10:38leaning in to kiss me.
10:39I instinctively tried to pull away,
10:42only for him to pin me firmly in place.
10:44Don't move.
10:45I frowned,
10:46staring at him in confusion.
10:48This wasn't the Elias Walker I knew.
10:51He was supposed to refuse my touch.
10:53Every time after indulging,
10:55he would bathe and burn incense,
10:57erasing every trace of my scent.
10:59To him,
11:00the love we shared was nothing but shame.
11:03He breathed gently against my ear,
11:05his kiss leaving me utterly breathless and consumed.
11:09But just as I was on the verge of sinking into his temptation,
11:13my peripheral gaze caught his cold,
11:16distant eyes.
11:17He'd used his body to lure me tonight just to test me.
11:21Because in this world of dirty deals and naked power,
11:24he refused to believe I acted without ulterior motive.
11:28I felt a dull ache.
11:30In his eyes,
11:31perhaps only soft and innocent Lila,
11:34sheltered from this dark world,
11:36could make him drop his guard.
11:37And I?
11:39I was forever the vicious,
11:41calculating Principessa.
11:42Nothing more.
11:44I rolled over,
11:45swiftly pulling a pistol from under the covers.
11:48And then,
11:49I seized his neck.
11:50Who granted you the audacity to step into my bed?
11:56Yet he showed not the slightest fear that I might pull the trigger.
11:59You healed my leg.
12:02To repay your kindness, Miss Kara,
12:04I offered myself to you tonight.
12:08Get out.
12:09I've told you,
12:10I'm not interested in you.
12:11He stared at me doubtfully.
12:13But you looked utterly ingrained by my kiss just now, Miss Kara.
12:16Could I have misread you?
12:18I pressed the muzzle of my gun harder against his heart.
12:22One more word,
12:23and I'll kill you.
12:25A beguiling smile tugged at his lips.
12:27You'd never hurt me, right?
12:28My expression faltered faintly,
12:30but I did not fire.
12:33What is it you truly want, Miss Kara?
12:35His eyes stirred a ripple through my chest that wouldn't stop.
12:38But I knew.
12:40His gentleness is feigned.
12:42I don't want anything.
12:43Your leg is healed.
12:45Leave tomorrow.
12:46Elias's brows drew together.
12:48He stared at me,
12:49as if trying to see through me.
12:51My answer clearly wasn't the one he'd been looking for.
12:54He couldn't understand why I hurt him,
12:57and now heal him again.
13:00Power.
13:01Money.
13:02Control.
13:04Everyone inside this estate had their own agenda.
13:06But what I wanted, simply,
13:08was for him to live well.
13:10To love whoever he wanted,
13:12freely.
13:13Elias,
13:15if you ever need help,
13:17you can still come to me.
13:20It seems Miss Kara has truly grown tired of me.
13:23Then I will go out.
13:24He acted indifferent,
13:25but his steps stumbled.
13:27After Elias left,
13:29the warmth of where he'd been
13:30still lingered in the sheets.
13:32I've grown greedy for this fleeting warmth,
13:35yet it is all but a fleeting spring dream.
13:37I reminded myself,
13:39stay away from Elias Walker.
13:41The next morning,
13:43Elias had already left my wing.
13:45Good.
13:45He and I had never been walking the same road.
13:50Not long after Elias left,
13:52Lila appeared.
13:52The first time I saw Lila,
13:55she was standing up for Elias.
13:56Spotting me coming,
13:57the butlers at the estate
13:58deliberately mocked Elias in front of my face.
14:01They called him a pretty pet
14:02who'd earned his keep on his back.
14:04They think he used his looks and his body
14:06to please his mistress.
14:07And even they said the butlers were worth more than him.
14:10Every word is filthy.
14:12They didn't understand Elias Walker was a wolf
14:15who had only been temporarily caged.
14:17Once freed,
14:18his teeth would rip their throats out.
14:20I clenched my fist.
14:22I moved toward them.
14:23But someone else's whip
14:24cracking across the faces of those underlings.
14:27The girl wore red.
14:29Fierce, elegant,
14:30no makeup,
14:31and still stunning.
14:32Lila's voice was commanding.
14:34Underlings!
14:35A pack of social climbers!
14:36How could you humiliate Mr. Walker?
14:39Her gaze shifted to me.
14:40Those at the top have power.
14:42But power used to take what isn't yours?
14:45What kind of love is that?
14:47She meant me.
14:48Obviously.
14:49It comes as no surprise
14:50she was going to be a Don.
14:52Even the perpetually detached Elias
14:54looked at her with something soft in his eyes.
14:56Though Elias wasn't as cold toward me
14:58as he'd been last life.
15:00But the moment Lila appeared,
15:02she pulled him out of whatever darkness he'd been in.
15:04This time,
15:05Elias was no longer broken.
15:06I have no wish to disturb his peace again.
15:09I turned around and quietly walked away.
15:13Elias became Lila's personal advisor.
15:15They say Lila had brought premium champagne
15:17to Don Valentino's study.
15:19every day until he agreed.
15:21Not long after,
15:22I heard from the maids
15:23that Elias' old leg injury leg
15:25had flared up again.
15:26Lila stayed at his bedside day and night.
15:29She refused to leave
15:30until Don Valentino
15:31ordered her back to her chambers.
15:33I frowned.
15:34Is his leg injury acting up again?
15:36That night,
15:36I wrapped myself in a coat,
15:38took an oil lamp,
15:39and walked through the snow.
15:40Elias lay motionless in his private suite.
15:43I pushed the window open.
15:44The bitter medicinal smell thinned.
15:48Miss Cara,
15:49why are you here?
15:51Looking at his face was white.
15:52I felt something heavy in my chest.
15:55I came to check on you.
15:56I stepped closer to his bed,
15:58slowly pulling back the dressing on his leg.
16:01The old scar was swollen.
16:03The wound split and infected.
16:04His physician had administered strong treatment
16:07without cleaning or disinfecting it.
16:09Why have you come?
16:10I told you.
16:12I'm going to heal your leg.
16:14He merely watched me contemplatively.
16:16I exhaled silently.
16:17I fix what I break.
16:19That's my code.
16:20I used a cloth treated with penicillin
16:22to clean the wound carefully.
16:24I heard you've been Lila
16:24through the estate every day.
16:26Your leg flared up
16:27because you've been overworking it.
16:29Lena grew up outside.
16:30She's new here.
16:32Naturally, she's curious.
16:33I smiled.
16:34Something bitter moved through me.
16:36How could I forget?
16:37He would throw his own life away for her.
16:39A broken leg was nothing.
16:41I wrapped the wound again
16:42and told him quietly,
16:44Your leg needs rest.
16:46Stop walking around with Lila.
16:48I packed my medical bag
16:49and turned to go.
16:51Behind me, I heard him ask,
16:52Will Miss Kara come back?
16:54Three days.
16:56I'll come change the deading.
16:59Every three days,
16:59I wrapped myself against a snow
17:01and came to Elias' private suite at night
17:03to change his bandages.
17:05Tonight, I heard laughter
17:07from outside his door
17:08before I even reached it.
17:10One lamp burned warm inside.
17:12Two silhouettes moved on the window glass.
17:16Lila, it's late.
17:18Go get some rest.
17:19The girl turns away
17:20with a bright, playful look.
17:21I blew out my oil lamp.
17:23I hid in the shadow of the corridor
17:25and watched Lila walk away
17:27until she disappeared.
17:28Then I stepped inside.
17:30Elias sat at his desk.
17:32He looked at me and said,
17:34Warm your hands.
17:35I recognized it.
17:36A gift Don Valentino had given Lila.
17:38This time,
17:39I didn't tell Elias to get on the bed.
17:41I crouched at his feet,
17:43right there at the desk,
17:44and changed his dressing.
17:47Elias,
17:48after this,
17:49I won't be coming anymore.
17:51He said nothing,
17:52which made me feel awkward.
17:54I've made amends for my past mistakes.
17:56I'd planned to aid you within the family,
17:58yet Lila supports you.
17:59You have a clear path ahead,
18:02and I am unnecessary.
18:04Elias bent slightly toward me.
18:06Are you jealous of Lila?
18:09Elias bent slightly toward me.
18:12Are you jealous of Lila?
18:14I laughed quietly and said it plainly.
18:16Yes.
18:17I'm fairly jealous of her.
18:19He smiled faintly.
18:21Miss Cara, you have everything.
18:23What could you possibly envy in her?
18:25What am I envying, really?
18:27I was the Principesa who had everything.
18:29And I envied Lila,
18:31who had grown up with unworldly.
18:33Her eyes still held a brightness
18:34that was alive and fearless.
18:36I admire she loved openly,
18:38hated openly,
18:39was vivid and beautiful.
18:41But I, growing up in a world
18:42of political maneuvering,
18:44had long since bleached it out of me.
18:46As if only the girls who shone like that
18:48were the ones people actually loved.
18:50Miss Cara,
18:51you've become unpredictable to me.
18:53Was the arrogance and the cruelty
18:55is your mask?
18:56He suddenly raised his hand
18:57and pressed it to the back of my head
18:59and then he kissed me.
19:00My waist pressed gently
19:02into the crook of his arm
19:03and I closed my eyes.
19:05After the kiss,
19:06I breathed against him,
19:07slightly undone,
19:08but I saw it.
19:09Elias' lips pressed tight,
19:11watching my reaction,
19:13testing me.
19:14Again,
19:15using himself as bait.
19:16I was an idiot.
19:18I knew everything he did was for Lila
19:20and his tenderness was a probe
19:21and still the warmth of him
19:23scattered my sense.
19:24Elias,
19:25I said his name softly,
19:26never love with all your heart,
19:28seven parts is enough.
19:31Don't be so silly,
19:32not anymore.
19:34After that night,
19:36a long time passed
19:36without me seeing Elias.
19:38But I had Elias had stepped down
19:40as Lila's personal advisor.
19:42Elias had been promoted
19:43to consigliere.
19:44Don Valentino had adopted
19:46Elias' proposal
19:47to reduce the family's street taxes.
19:49I busied myself
19:50with the medical supplies
19:51in my hands,
19:52genuinely relieved
19:53and happy for him.
19:55Everyone on the estate
19:56noticed Ms. Cara had changed.
19:58She devoted herself to medicine.
20:00She had even apprenticed herself
20:01to the chief family doctor.
20:03Rumors spread
20:04Ms. Cara was jealous of Lila,
20:06afraid she'd compete for position.
20:08Even Don Valentino tested me.
20:10Would you like to take over the family?
20:12I offered him a bottle
20:13of the painkillers
20:14and antibiotic ointments
20:15I'd mixed myself.
20:16I declared my purpose clearly,
20:18I wanted to be a healer.
20:20Don Valentino looked at me
20:22with warmth
20:22and said I had inherited
20:23Elena's wish
20:24and that his daughter
20:25had finally grown up.
20:27As for the rumors
20:28inside the estate,
20:29I didn't care.
20:30I was only mildly curious.
20:32What would Elias think?
20:34If I became a threat
20:35to Lila's path to power,
20:36would he destroy me
20:37the way he had last night?
20:39I sniffed the air.
20:41The faint smell
20:42of scorched medicinal herbs
20:43drifted from the stove.
20:45I got up quickly,
20:46laughing at myself
20:47as I rushed
20:48to turn off the flame.
20:49Sure enough,
20:50handsome men
20:51have always distracted
20:52one entity.
20:54This summer,
20:55a succession of violent storms
20:56caused flooding
20:57across multiple regions.
20:59The waters drowned
21:00entire neighborhoods.
21:01The harvest was destroyed.
21:03Donna Valentino
21:04led the estate
21:04in donating jewelry
21:05to the relief fund.
21:06An aid station
21:07was set up
21:08at the perimeter
21:08of the estate.
21:09Donna herself
21:10handed out supplies.
21:11The noble women
21:12of the alliance
21:12followed her example.
21:14Right before I asked
21:15Don Valentino
21:16to let me join
21:16the doctors outside,
21:18Lila walked in to hear.
21:19Don Valentino,
21:20I am formally requesting
21:22that you grant me
21:23and Elias
21:24an alliance marriage arrangement.
21:26Don Valentino frowned.
21:28We'll discuss this later.
21:30He turned that same
21:31displeased look on me.
21:32And you're here
21:33for Walker too?
21:34I'm here for the medical crisis
21:36among the victims.
21:37Don seemed genuinely interested.
21:39And how would you solve it?
21:40Manhattan's victims
21:41can be relocated
21:42to better resourced areas
21:43near the estate.
21:44Temporary field clinics
21:45shall be set up
21:46at major intersections,
21:47staffed by our
21:48family clinic physicians.
21:49And when the time is right,
21:51we strike.
21:53Excellent.
21:54Both excellent.
21:55Elias just proposed
21:57moving the displace to food.
21:58And now you come with
22:00moving the displace to medicine.
22:02Miss Cara requests permission
22:03to accompany
22:04the family clinic team
22:05outside the estate
22:06to treat the victims.
22:07You're my principessa.
22:08You want to get close
22:09to those refugees?
22:10I'm also a doctor.
22:12A doctor heals everyone.
22:14Rich or poor,
22:15mob or civilian.
22:16Don Valentino smiled.
22:17You truly have grown up.
22:21Outside in the corridor,
22:23Lila stopped me.
22:24Did you come to interrupt
22:24my requesting on purpose?
22:26I met her eyes directly.
22:27The victims are starving
22:28and dying in the streets.
22:30Children are infected.
22:32And you think your personal feelings
22:33take priority right now?
22:35Lila faltered.
22:37I didn't.
22:38In Last Life,
22:39Lila had grown up
22:40outside the estate.
22:41She understood
22:42what real suffering looked like.
22:43After she took power,
22:45she pushed new order reform
22:46and built an era of peace.
22:48It's not the girl
22:49distracted by romance
22:50while people died.
22:51I kept my face hard.
22:54I'm not trying
22:55to take Elias from you.
22:57He is yours.
22:59Lila pressed her lips together,
23:00a trace of guilt
23:01behind her eyes.
23:02I couldn't take him
23:04even if I tried.
23:05What you said was right.
23:07Those in power
23:08have authority,
23:08but they also have
23:10obligations they must fulfill.
23:12Lila nodded in agreement.
23:14You're smarter than me.
23:16You know that.
23:17I turned and found Elias
23:18standing at the far end
23:19of the corridor,
23:20gazing at me.
23:21He walked closer
23:22and a smile moved through it.
23:24Miss Kara,
23:26it's been a while.
23:28I find you more
23:29and more interesting.
23:30I couldn't stop
23:31a small tremor.
23:35Elias,
23:37what a coincidence.
23:39Not a coincidence.
23:41I specifically...
23:42Mr. Walker!
23:43Were you waiting for me?
23:45Lila came jogging over.
23:47I see.
23:47He'd lingered here
23:48just to wait for Lila.
23:50Miss Kara, I...
23:50Congratulations.
23:51I interrupted him at once.
23:53You've gotten
23:54what you desired.
23:57Outside the walls,
23:58a three-year-old girl
23:59in her mother's arms
24:00lay covered
24:01in infected sores.
24:03I found again
24:03the reason
24:04I first became a doctor.
24:06Young lady,
24:07you have such a good heart.
24:09You'll go to paradise
24:10when you die
24:11for saving so many people.
24:13The family doctor
24:14beside me laughed.
24:15Do you know
24:16who this young lady is?
24:18This is Miss Kara Valentina.
24:21I heard gasps
24:22all around.
24:23That's the one
24:23who chained
24:24her own advisor in chains?
24:25The one they call
24:26the vicious prince obsessor?
24:29A little girl
24:30staggered back
24:31and rushed
24:32into her mother's arms
24:33in a panic.
24:34Is that the dreadful
24:35Miss Kara?
24:36I laughed bitterly.
24:38Was my reputation
24:39really that bad?
24:40Late that night,
24:41I slipped into
24:42the dark oak grove
24:43behind the private suite.
24:44But I thought
24:45I saw Elias' figure
24:46far away.
24:47He wanted nothing more
24:49than to stay
24:49as far from me
24:50as possible.
24:51Why would he ever
24:52come back to this grove?
24:54Suddenly,
24:54a woman rushed
24:55to me with a knife.
25:02The grove was dark
25:04and thick
25:04and still.
25:05Suddenly,
25:06a maid lunged
25:07at me with a knife.
25:08The blade sliced
25:09open my right shoulder.
25:10Blood spilled instantly.
25:13Miss Kara!
25:14Do you know
25:16my child died
25:17in the floods?
25:18Why didn't you save him?
25:20She saw the first strike
25:21hadn't hit anything vital
25:22and then raised the knife
25:23for a second blow.
25:24Suddenly,
25:26Blade drove through
25:27her throat from behind.
25:28She collapsed
25:29and blood poured
25:30from her mouth.
25:30I looked up at the man
25:32standing behind her
25:32and laughed.
25:34Elias!
25:34It really is you!
25:36What are you doing here?
25:37Elias said nothing,
25:39just pulled me into him
25:40and began checking my wound.
25:41I went blush
25:42and tried to block his hands.
25:44Elias,
25:44you're not a doctor.
25:45You can't treat this.
25:46He pushed my hands away,
25:48pulled out a handkerchief
25:49and pressed it against my wound
25:51to stop the bleeding.
25:52His warm breath
25:52brushed my neck,
25:53light and ticklish.
25:55Elias,
25:56why did you save me?
25:58If I died,
25:59wouldn't it be happier
25:59for you and Lila?
26:00Even though I had no intention
26:02of taking power for myself,
26:03but my death would remove
26:05the last obstacle
26:06from Lila's path to Donna.
26:07Elias' mouth curved faintly.
26:09I did once hate you
26:10and even want you dead,
26:12but now...
26:13He stared at me.
26:14I don't want Miss Care
26:15to die anymore.
26:16He gathered me up
26:17into his arms and leave.
26:18I don't know.
26:19I didn't know.
