Short filmTranscript
00:00My fated mate sold our daughter to a monster. I found her locked in a cell. 16 years old.
00:06Naked on a wooden plank, arms black with burnt scars, eyes fixed on the ceiling as if her mind
00:10had already fled her body. Her nipples were ripped off. The smell coming from between her legs told
00:16me enough without anyone saying a word. When I reached for her, she pressed herself into the
00:20wall. Don't touch me. My own daughter didn't know my face. Couldn't stand my touch. And every single
00:27person who let this happen, the alpha heir, the luna, and the high alpha himself, they all knew.
00:33They knew. And not one of them lifted a hand to stop it. They thought I was a weak mother.
00:38They forgot who I was. I'm the war alpha. At the gates of the royal stronghold, I finally came home.
00:46A decade ago, I left my 6-year-old daughter behind and marched to war to preserve the peace of
00:50our
00:50pack. Now, after all that time, I was back. My eyes swept through the crowd, searching for her.
00:57In my memory, Aurora was still soft and warm, smelling like honeysuckle and warm milk.
01:02Every morning, her small, chubby fists would grab fistfuls of my hair. She should have been 16 now.
01:08My chest ached at the thought of holding her again. High alpha Aldrich stood on the platform
01:12with the pack council waiting for me. The Greyholt family stood behind him. My mate, Dominic. His
01:19mother, Helena. His sister, Margo. All of them were dressed like this was some grand celebration.
01:24I studied every face. My wolf paced hard inside me. Something was wrong. Aurora wasn't there.
01:31Everyone else had come. Everyone but my daughter. Aldrich started his welcome speech. I cut him off.
01:39Where's my daughter? His smile locked in place. Then I caught it. That flicker in his eyes.
01:44Then I caught it. That flicker in his eyes. My stomach dropped. I'd spent 10 years reading
01:49enemy faces on battlefields. I knew what guilt looked like. Watch your tongue, Raven A. You're
01:55in the presence of the high alpha now. Show some respect. Dominic snapped. Dominic. My fated mate.
02:01I kept our mate bond intact for Aurora so she could grow up with her father. The year Aurora was
02:07born,
02:07he brought his chosen mate into my pack. His own cousin, Vivian, gave him a daughter too,
02:12Celeste. I swallowed all of it. For my daughter, I endured every humiliation, every betrayal. I gave
02:19that man my lands, my warriors, and even my pride. Everything. And people in this kingdom still thought
02:26one word from him would tame me. I asked you a question, Dominic. Where is my daughter? He opened
02:32his mouth, ready to put me in my place, and then a woman came crashing out of the crowd. There
02:37was dried
02:38blood all over her arms and streaked down her neck. Luna! Praise the moon you're back! Please!
02:45They're killing her! You have to save Aurora!
02:50Nettie was Aurora's caretaker. I chose her myself, because the first time she held Aurora,
02:55my baby fell asleep in less than 5 minutes. She was the gentlest she-wolf I had ever met.
03:00Now the woman in front of me was skin and bones. Starved down to nothing, her face so badly beaten
03:05I
03:06almost didn't recognize her. My wolf slammed against my ribs. A growl ripped out of my throat.
03:11That mutt is a traitor! Execute her on the spot!
03:14Lucien Volcrest. I was the one who arranged his match with Aurora. That marriage was the reason his
03:19mother, Isolde, became the Luna, and the reason he became the alpha heir. Everything they had came from
03:25me and from my daughter. And now he was standing there, ordering my daughter's caretaker to die.
03:29The enforcers closed in on Nettie, baring their fangs.
03:34Touch her, and I'll rip your fucking arms from their sockets. She belongs to me.
03:38Two-thirds of this kingdom's army was the Ashburn War Pack. My war wolves. If I turned on the crown,
03:44this kingdom would not survive the night. Everybody knew it. The warriors froze.
03:50I said kill her!
03:51Try me.
03:52A pulse of power surged through the pack link. 2,000 wolves stepped forward as one.
03:57The warriors stumbled back.
04:01That's enough. The boy spoke out of turn.
04:05Hand the woman over to Ravenna. She is, after all, our war alpha.
04:11I knew exactly what he was doing, using his son to test me, to see whether I would still lower
04:16my
04:16head and fall in line. I didn't have time for his games. Nettie collapsed at my feet,
04:21so weak she could barely get the words out.
04:23What? Your daughter is dying. She's at Lord Fenwick's estate. If you don't go now,
04:30you won't see her again. Go!
04:33One thought kept pounding in my head. My baby is dying.
04:38Who the hell is Fenwick? He didn't exist when I left.
04:41Enough of this scene, Ravenna. You will return to the Manon with me. Now.
04:45The whole square went dead silent. Every wolf turned to look at me. Nettie grabbed my hand so
04:51hard her nails cut my skin. She was shaking all over. They remembered the woman who used to give
04:56in every time Dominic spoke. They were waiting to see if I'd do it again.
05:00Alpha, kill me if you want. I don't care. But go now. Please, if you wait much longer,
05:07you'll never see her alive again. The goddess is calling her home. Go! Before she's gone forever!
05:14I saw the fear in her eyes. She was afraid I would do what I had always done. Choose Dominic
05:20over my own flesh and blood. Ashworn Wallpack to the Fenwick estate! Anyone who stands in our way,
05:26shred them to pieces! Dominic stepped in front of my horse. Ravenna, you can't-
05:32My boot smashed into his face. He hit the ground hard, blood pouring out of his nose.
05:38If anything happens to Aurora, every last one of you dies! Then I tore out of the square,
05:44with 2,000 wolves pouring behind me like a breaking wave. Nettie led me into the High District,
05:49to a walled estate tucked behind iron gates. A servant at the entrance saw her and gave a cold
05:54little laugh. Back again? The Greyholds don't give a damn about your little slut. They're the ones
05:59who sent her to Lord Fenwick's bed. He never got to finish. My fist shook his jaw. My wolves flooded
06:05through the estate. Nettie led me around to the back courtyard. The place was falling apart,
06:10rotted boards, a door hanging crooked on its hinges. Before I even touched it, the smell hit me.
06:16Rot. Blood. Something foul enough to turn the air solid. I shoved the door open.
06:22A girl lay on a wooden plank, covered with nothing but a few filthy rags. Scars from glowing
06:27coals crawled across her chest. Both her nipples had been torn off. The flesh between her legs was
06:33black and rotting. Her eyes were open, fixed on the ceiling, empty. If her chest hadn't still been
06:38rising, I would have thought she was already dead. Aurora! Aurora! My whole body started shaking.
06:47My hands shook so hard my sword slipped free and clang to the floor. Nettie dropped beside the bed,
06:52crying so hard she could barely breathe. Baby, your mom is here. She came back. She's taking you away
06:57from this nightmare. Please, just look at her face. You said you missed her, remember? She's right here
07:03beside you. Open your eyes. Please, baby. Don't leave her like this. Aurora didn't move. She didn't
07:10even blink. She just stared at the ceiling like she couldn't hear a single word we said. My wolf was
07:15howling. The pain struck so hard that blood surged up my throat and poured from my lips. I couldn't stop
07:20it.
07:20Every wolf outside heard it. Alpha! General! I lifted one hand. Every voice vanished. I dropped
07:28to my knees beside the bed and reached for her face. My fingers were shaking. I hadn't even touched
07:33her yet when she flinched and crushed herself against the wall. No! No more! Please, stay away!
07:39More blood filled my mouth. I forced myself to swallow it down. Then a voice cut across the courtyard.
07:45Old. Arrogant. Which of you mongrels dare trespass upon my lands?
07:50The second Aurora heard that voice, she started shaking even harder. Her body jerked. Then she
07:56started seizing, spasming all over. Don't touch me! Help! Mom! Mom! Help!
08:01The second she called for me, I answered. I reached for her, trying to pull her into my arms. But
08:07the
08:07moment I touched her, she shoved herself harder into the wall as though she meant to sink through the
08:11stone itself. Her empty eyes filled with tears. And she stared at the door, terrified.
08:18Nettie, wrap her in my furs. Keep her warm. Yeah. Then I picked up my sword and walked outside.
08:24Fenwick was out in the courtyard, screaming at my wolves. He had white hair, a swollen gut,
08:29and a cluster of young shi wolves gathered around him, dressed in little northernshire rags. He was
08:34shouting, his hands roaming freely over their bodies. Those girls wore the same look Aurora had.
08:39Empty. Hollowed out. I looked at them and could almost see my daughter. Aurora in thin fabric.
08:45Aurora with his hands on her. Who the hell are you? How dare you bring warriors onto my state?
08:51Do you have any idea who I am? I am kin to the High Alpha. Dominic Greyholt is my blood.
09:00You touch me and the entire council will have your head. The grandfather of the Alpha heir's mate,
09:06Dominic Greyholt's father-in-law. They knew. Every last one of them knew. He didn't get another word out.
09:12I shifted. My jaws tore straight through his throat. I ripped open his chest. His stomach.
09:18Everything that held that wretched body together. His guts spilled across the courtyard. I shredded
09:23him until there was nothing left you could even recognize as a man. Just blood, meat, and a severed
09:29head rolling to a stop by my feet. I shifted back and turned to the others. Gather what little you
09:34have. We're going to Greyholt Manor. I left with the girls. No one else did. I wrapped Aurora in my
09:40war cloak and carried her outside. She weighed almost nothing. Her heartbeat trembled against
09:45my chest. Faint and faltering, as though it might give out at any moment. We rode hard for Greyholt
09:50Manor. My Manor. The gates were shut. Two Omegas stood outside. The first one raised his chin.
09:57Lady Elena and Councilman Greyholt ordered you to kneel at this gate until morning for
10:00disgracing the pack's honor. That girl isn't allowed inside. She belongs to her mate. You are not
10:06bringing her in here. My daughter's heartbeat was almost gone against my chest. And these two
10:11bastards were telling me to kneel. My war wolves lined up behind me. Two thousand of them. They
10:16had held Aurora when she was a baby. They had chased Aurora through the grass when she ran after
10:20butterflies. They were the men who let her tug on their capes and mess up their hair. The child who
10:25treated two thousand killers like her own family. And they had stood in that cell and seen what had
10:29been done to her. These wolves did not cry on the battlefield. Now every eye behind me was red.
10:34Alpha. Just give us the word. Let us rip this place down. For our little Luna's justice.
10:43Surround the manor. Everyone inside dies.
10:48The servants went white and started screaming, pounding on the gates with both fists. The doors
10:53hadn't even opened yet before my wolves tore their heads off. I looked up at the crest. Greyholt Manor.
10:59Then I drove my boot into it and cracked it clean in two. I carried Aurora through the gate. The
11:04second I
11:04stepped inside, I froze. Wisteria. Everywhere. Thick purple clusters hung from every post,
11:10spilling over the old sparring ring. The pollen hung so thick in the air it stung my eyes.
11:15Aurora was badly allergic to pollen. One bad attack could close her throat until she couldn't breathe.
11:20She almost died from it the year she was born. After that, I gave one order, no flowers anywhere on
11:26this
11:27estate. Anyone who disobeyed would die. I pulled my cloak tighter around Aurora, covering her mouth and nose,
11:32and moved fast under the trellis. If Aurora breathed this in, she could die. They know that.
11:37How the hell could they do this? Living in my house, eating my food, wearing my jewelry,
11:42and planting the very thing that could kill my daughter inside her own home. Cut it all down,
11:47every lost piece. My wolves moved at once. Holt! Lay a finger on these blues and you'll answer to my
11:54brother! The scream came from across the courtyard. Margot Greyholt, Dominic's sister. She stormed toward us,
12:01Curie carved into every line of her face. Dominic built this garden for his true mate!
12:06This garden cost him a fortune in gold! Don't you dare ruin it! His chosen mate. To make that woman
12:12happy, Dominic filled my estate with the one thing that could kill my daughter. Margot saw Aurora in my
12:17arms and instantly pressed a handkerchief over her nose. The disgust in her face, like my daughter,
12:22was a rotting piece of trash. Mother and my brother were perfectly clear.
12:26That brat is banned from these grounds. She belongs to Fenwick now. Even if she dies over
12:33there, that has nothing to do with us. You need to get on your knees and apologize to the Alpha
12:37here.
12:38She poisoned the here and Salelta, then ran off with her lover. His grace showed mercy by not
12:44punishing her. But if it were up to me, I would have beaten her to death and fed her body
12:48to the
12:48rogues. I slapped her. She crashed to the ground, blood and two teeth scattering across the stone.
12:55You hit me when Lucien finds out! I drove my foot into her chest. She flew backward and slammed into
13:02one of the trellis posts. Blood burst out of her mouth. And for the first time, fear crawled into her
13:07eyes. I planted my boot on her chest and looked down at her. This is Ashburn Manor. I was a
13:13damn
13:13fool for ever letting your family move in. Aurora's pollen allergy can kill her. Everyone in this house knows that.
13:18Your brother planted a whole garden for his chosen mate. My daughter could die and he didn't care.
13:24I left Aurora with all of you. Every one of you swore before the moon goddess that you would protect
13:29her.
13:29You broke that oath. Now I'm collecting. She clawed at my boot, nearly choking.
13:35Mercy, Romanane! She wheezed. Please, it wasn't my choice. You held me. You bathed me. Remember?
13:42I'm your girl. You're little Margo. You can't kill me. You loved me once. Please!
13:50Something twisted hard in my chest. On one thing, she wasn't lying. I did raise her. After Helena gave
13:56birth, she was too weak to care for the baby. I fed Margo, bathed her, held her when she cried.
14:02She was one year older than Aurora. The two of them had grown up side by side. Aurora used to
14:08follow her
14:08everywhere, always pressing her finest treasures into her hands, calling her Mar in that small,
14:13soft voice. And Margo stood there and watched them destroy her.
14:16I fed you from my own hand. I loved you as my own blood. And in return, you helped them
14:23slaughter my child.
14:25Then I put all my weight down one last time. Crack! Her begging stopped. One hand was still clutching my
14:31boot.
14:32Her eyes stayed open even after she stopped breathing. I looked at her for one second.
14:36That face I had watched grow up. Then I stepped away. A screen tore across the courtyard.
14:41Ah! Margo! My Margo!
14:47It was Helena, Dominic's mother. She was here too. Right then, Aurora moved in Nettie's arms. Her voice
14:53drifted across. Mom?
14:55I went straight to her. Nettie had my war cloak wrapped tight around her. Aurora's eyes were open,
15:01still empty. But this time, she was looking at me. I knelt beside her. I was so close,
15:07but I could barely smell anything on her. Just the faintest trace of honeysuckle. So faint,
15:13I almost thought I imagined it. There was no time to think about that. Helena threw herself over
15:19Margo's body. Margo! My Margo! Her screams ripped through the yard. Then she lifted her head and looked
15:26at me. Ravena! You wrecked! You killed her! I will see you rot in the abyss! I will bury you
15:33and that
15:34little rock in the same filth as my daughter! Inside, Aurora heard Helena's voice. She pressed
15:40herself into Nettie's arms and began to murmur, lost in some waking nightmare. Grandmother, please.
15:46I didn't steal them. I just wanted my mother. The letters were for her. Only for her.
15:51My blood ran cold. Grandma! The pond is so cold, there's ice on it! I didn't push Miss
15:58Celeste in! She dragged me down with her! Please let me out! I can't take it anymore!
16:03My hands started shaking. Grandma, I didn't drug my sister and the alpha here. I walked in on them,
16:09together in Mother's chamber. Grandma, I don't have a lover. It's a set up. It's not like what they said.
16:15You can't make me hurt! The whip was dumped in salt water! I stood there listening as Aurora begged
16:20through one horror after another, and my legs almost gave out under me. What the hell had
16:24they done to her all these years? Raveena! Go to hell! Helena shrieked, rushing at me with a dagger.
16:31I twisted aside and kicked Helena to the ground. She clawed her way back up, spitting blood,
16:37glaring at me like I wronged her. You dare defy me? You dare strike your matriarch?
16:41I am your mate's mother, you ungrateful cur! You should die to pay for Margaret's life! I'm the
16:47only reason you were allowed to keep the Greyhill name! Otherwise, Dominic would sever your mate
16:51bond today and throw you out of the pack! Aurora's voice carried from inside again, raw and terrified.
16:58Mom, save me. I'm so scared of Grandma. It hurts. I don't want to die. Mom, you can't die either.
17:06She was terrified. Terrified I would do what I had always done before,
17:09give in for Dominic's sake and accept Helena's terms. I pulled Aurora tighter against me. She was so light.
17:1616 years old, and she weighed less than a 10-year-old child. Everything is fine, sweetie. I'm here.
17:22I got you. My voice softened. No one is ever hurting you again. You are not going to die.
17:28And neither am I. The people who hurt you. Your father, your grandmother, even the ones sitting
17:35last one of them pay. Helena was still screaming. I handed Aurora back to Nettie. Then I walked toward her.
17:44I wrenched the dagger from her grip and drew it across her throat, deep enough to steal her voice,
17:48not deep enough to end her life. Helena's eyes flew wide. She clutched at her bleeding throat and made
17:54these wet. When I accepted Dominic, you were a withered she-wolf, too frail to even nurse your own
17:59pup. So I raised Margaret. I was the one who put meat in her mouth. I kept your bloodline alive.
18:05I raised
18:06both of you as my own. The year I went to war, you cried and swore you would protect Aurora.
18:12You swore it before the Moon Goddess. And how did you repay my mercy? You beat her with switches.
18:20You held her down in ice water. You whipped her with leather soaked in salt. You did that to a
18:25six-year-old child. The rage in Helena's eyes finally cracked. Fear rushed in. Killing you would be too
18:31easy. I loosened my grip on her clothes. She crumpled to the ground. I turned to my war wolves.
18:38From this moment on, Helena Greyhulf is cast out of the pack. Sever her pack link. Strike her name
18:44from the pack rolls. She is no longer under Greyhulf protection. From this second on, she is a rogue.
18:51I felt her presence in the pack link snap like a thread. The pain hit her a hundred times harder
18:57than
18:57anything I could have done by hand. Her mouth opened. No sound came out. Fear flooded her face.
19:04Real fear. Send word to every pack. No pack, large or small, is allowed to shelter Helena Greyhulf.
19:11If any pack dares grant her shadow or salt, they will face the full fury of two thousand aspirin blades.
19:18Helena lay there on the ground, blood and tears all over her face. She wasn't afraid of dying. She was
19:24afraid of what came after this. Becoming nothing. No pack. No one answered her call. Alive, but alone.
19:32Until the day she died. I never looked at her again. I sent wolves to the manor storehouse for herbs.
19:39Aurora needed treatment now. But when my warriors came back, they brought back nothing. The servants
19:44dropped to their knees. I looked around once, and before I could even speak, one of them blurted it out.
19:49Celeste is about to give birth. Dominic and Vivian took every bit of herbs from the manor and brought it
19:55to the alpha hare stronghold. Aurora clutched my hand. Mom, it hurts so much. This is your manor.
20:03Why won't you give me anything for the pain? The storehouse is full of salves and herbs. Mom,
20:08I'm so cold. I don't want the goddess to take me. If I'm gone, who will be left to love
20:15you? Those remedies were
20:16mine. I had spent my whole life collecting the best herbs and treatments I could find,
20:20better than what they kept in the high alpha's moon hall. And my daughter lay rotting without
20:24so much as a poultice. While Dominic and Vivian stripped my stores bare for Celeste.
20:29All warriors to the alpha hare stronghold. Dominic, Vivian, Celeste. Every last one of you was going to
20:38die today. I tried to settle Aurora onto the blankets inside the carriage. The second I moved,
20:44she grabbed my hand again. Mom, don't leave me. Don't leave me. I'm so scared. Please.
20:51So I held her and hummed softly, the way I used to when she was small. Gradually, the shaking eased.
20:58She leaned into me. The carriage reached the alpha hare stronghold.
21:01Alpha, there's an army outside the estate. The one leading them is General Garrick Whitmore.
21:07Garrick Whitmore, a legendary general, the kind people spoke about the same way they spoke about my father.
21:12He commanded one third of the kingdom's army. I carried Aurora out of the carriage.
21:17Garrick stood across from me, white haired, back straight as a blade.
21:21Ashpen's child. This should be a good day. You came home victorious. Listen, go home.
21:28Had it been anyone else standing in my path, they would already be dead. But General Whitmore once
21:33saved my father's life. So I walked toward him with Aurora in my arms. His warriors tensed as one.
21:39My war wolves braced at my back. Then Aurora moved. She turned to look at Garrick and held
21:45out a hand to him, baring her face and arms. She was deathly pale. Fresh wounds crossed over old
21:52ones. Silver burns had branded themselves into the skin alongside the lash marks.
21:56Grandpa Whitmore.
21:58Her voice was worn to nothing. Whitmore stared at her. I'm Aurora. Raven's daughter. The day mum left
22:06for war, you held me and watched her go. You told me my mum was a guardian. That because of
22:14her,
22:15everyone else got to live in peace. You said you would look after me for her.
22:20Aurora coughed. Blood ran from the corner of her mouth.
22:24Baby.
22:25Garrick's face changed.
22:27This is Aurora. How did this happen? The Greyholt family told me she was fine. They said she found
22:34someone she loved. The high alpha and the alpha here told me they had let the matter go. That
22:38she left on her own. How did she end up like this?
22:41They lied to me. And they lied to you. Grandpa Whitmore. I never had a lover. I caught them,
22:49Celeste and the alpha hare, rotting like beasts in my mother's own bed. My father and the high alpha,
22:55they tried to break me. They demanded I sign away my honour for their sins. But I am my mother's
23:01daughter. I would not bow. So they sold me to that monster, Fenwick. If I hadn't been waiting for mum
23:08to come back, I would have died at that estate already. Grandpa Whitmore, if you don't believe
23:13me, Celeste is giving birth today. She hasn't even been mated to the alpha heel for six moon cycles.
23:21How could she be having a full grown pup? That hit me all at once. Aurora had been
23:27locked in Fenwick's cell. How did she know Celeste was giving birth today? How did she know when their
23:32mate bond was made? I didn't have time to think it through. Garrick had already sent people to check.
23:37They came back fast and leaned into whisper in his ear. His face darkened, then darker.
23:43Then his whole body started shaking. Those faithless crows! Why the hell would the high
23:49alpha lie to me? They told me Lord Fenwick's land was restitution for the alpha heir and Celeste
23:53because Aurora had destroyed their bond, so this is the truth! Fine. I'll deal with the high alpha.
23:59I'm going to ask him to his face why he lied to us. I need to ask that bastard Dominic
24:02why he did this
24:03to my daughter for 10 straight years. Garrick was silent for a few seconds. Then he ordered his
24:09warriors to clear the way. Spare the pup. If you can't give me an answer, then whatever you choose
24:15to do after that, I won't stop you. This kingdom was built by the Ashburn family. You're the one
24:20who's been holding it together. No man, not even the high alpha, shall treat an Ashburn like a dog.
24:25Then he turned and marched off with his warriors. I walked into the alpha heir's stronghold and heard
24:33screaming coming from the birthing room. Two people were standing outside the door. Dominic and Vivian.
24:39They were both staring at the entrance. Neither of them saw me. I stepped up behind Dominic and pressed
24:45my dagger into his lower back. His body went rigid, but his voice stayed the same as ever, cold,
24:51arrogant, like he still thought he owned the air around him. Ravena, put the weapon down. This is
24:56the alpha heir's stronghold, not some place for your insolence. Vivian turned around. The second
25:02she saw me, tears flooded down her face. Ravena, what's wrong? Is this because Dominic came with me
25:09to be here for Celeste's labor instead of waiting for you back at the manor? It's my fault. Don't blame
25:14him. Celeste is the alpha heir's mate. She's carrying his first pup. I was scared something might go wrong,
25:20so I asked Dominic to come with me. If you need someone to blame, let it be me. Please don't
25:25let
25:25this hurt your bond. I hadn't even opened my mouth yet, and somehow she had already turned herself
25:30into the victim. I remembered the year she moved in. Back then, I still loved Dominic. She was always
25:37like this, crying without making a sound, letting Dominic think I was the one hurting her. We fought
25:42over her so many times, and every fight shaved away another piece of what I felt for him.
25:47If you have a grudge, take it out on me. Leave Vivian out of this.
25:51He still couldn't turn around. The dagger in his back made sure of that.
25:55Dominic, I only have one question. Why did you do this to Aurora? Why did you hand her over to
26:00Lord
26:00Fenwick? The Greyhull pack never mistreated Aurora. Lord Fenwick was personally appointed by the High
26:06Alpha. Aurora wronged Celeste first. She cheated, dragged the Greyhull name through the dirt,
26:12and disgraced this family. She climbed into Lord Fenwick's bed all on her own.
26:17That was her choice. Vivian sniffled softly beside him. Celeste is about to give birth. You
26:23humiliated the Alpha Hare at the city gates today. For Celeste, for her child, and to give the Alpha
26:28Hare an explanation. I need you to sever our mate Bond willingly. Vivian will become my only mate.
26:34Don't worry. I won't cast you out of the pack. You can stay. Vivian is not like you. She knows
26:41how
26:41to behave. She doesn't make everything difficult. Since you're already here, go tell the High Alpha
26:47you're agreeing to sever the Bond voluntarily. Aurora moved in my arms.
26:52Aurora! Vivian jumped. Ravena, are you out of your mind? You actually brought Aurora here? She
26:58drugged Celeste and the Alpha here. The Alpha Heald hates her. Bringing her here is the same as sending her
27:03to
27:04die. I drove the dagger into Dominic's stomach. He stopped in the middle of the sentence. Then he
27:10looked down at the blade buried in him. Ravena, you actually dared. Why? Vivian threw herself onto him,
27:18her face flushing red. Ravena, what are you doing? Do you think Celeste stole Aurora's place? Do you
27:24think we drove Aurora away? Even if we'd wanted to, we never would have dared touch her. Go ask anyone
27:30at
27:30the manor what kind of life Celeste and I had all these years under Aurora's rule. Dominic pulled her
27:35behind him, shielding her with his body, then looked at Aurora with open disgust. Tell your mother the
27:41truth. Your mother protects this kingdom. How could she give birth to something as vicious as you?
27:47And you're still lying right to our faces.
