Short filmTranscript
00:00On my wedding day, my Alpha's mistress tried to kill herself.
00:05Before I became Ethan's Luna, I made a deal I could not break.
00:09My lady, are you really not bothered at all?
00:12I didn't care how many mistresses he kept.
00:14He could warm his bed with whoever he wished.
00:16But he had to give me the respect and dignity owed to the Luna of the pack.
00:21That was my only condition.
00:22The price of the Mitchell name being joined with his.
00:25What I didn't expect was that on the very night of our mating ceremony,
00:29his mistress would hang herself along with a pup she carried in her belly.
00:32So he spent our mating night with his mistress instead.
00:35That was his mistake.
00:36Not the infidelity. I had expected that.
00:38What I had not expected was the public humiliation.
00:42The entire pack, the visiting elders, the royal representatives,
00:45all of them saw the Alpha walk out on his Luna before the marking was even complete.
00:50My lady has been terribly wronged on your mating night.
00:54I sat before the mirror, my reflection pale but calm.
00:57The twin ceremonial candles still burned beside the untouched bonding chalice.
01:01Wronged.
01:02My father always said,
01:03In this world, no one had the right to make me suffer.
01:06So I don't endure.
01:08I act.
01:11My handmaiden looked up, confused.
01:13I rose from the chair and walked to the window.
01:15Outside, the moon hung fat and silver over the Caldwell Pack House,
01:19a house that was supposed to be my home.
01:21Somewhere in that house, Ethan was holding his mistress, whispering promises he had already broken.
01:26Help me change.
01:28We have a visit to make.
01:31The night wind cut through my thin robe as I walked through the dark corridors.
01:35No one stopped me.
01:36No one even saw me.
01:37The whole pack house was in an uproar over Kara's suicide attempt.
01:41Servants ran back and forth.
01:43Healers were summoned.
01:45And the Alpha had disappeared.
01:46I paused at the garden gate.
01:48A tall figure stood beneath the moonlight, leaning against a marble pillar.
01:52Royal eyes.
01:53I knew him at once.
01:54Prince Ronan.
01:55The youngest son of the Lycan king.
01:57He pushed himself off the pillar and walked toward me.
02:00No anxiety.
02:01Only a quiet, dangerous calm.
02:03You shouldn't carry this alone.
02:05His voice low and attractive.
02:07I looked at him silently.
02:09I'm not carrying anything, your highness.
02:11I'm about to set it down.
02:12A faint smile touched his lips.
02:14The Mitchell family holds the army's power.
02:16I hold the royal name.
02:18Together, we could rule this kingdom.
02:20A strong alliance.
02:22Absolute power.
02:23You would never be humiliated again.
02:25I don't care about power.
02:26I don't want a throne.
02:27I just want peace.
02:29Prince Ronan's eyes softened.
02:31Then I will respect your choice.
02:32But if he humiliates you again, I will step in.
02:36Not because I seek power over you, but because no woman should face cruelty alone.
02:41He nodded toward me, then vanished into the shadow of the trees, as if he had never been there.
02:46Strangely, my chest felt lighter.
02:48I turned and continued toward Kara's wing.
02:52I reached Kara's wing.
02:54The door was half open, candlelight spilling out.
02:57I heard her voice first.
02:58My alpha, you promised you wouldn't go back to her tonight.
03:01You promised.
03:02I won't.
03:03She means nothing.
03:04You and our child are everything.
03:10I pushed the door open.
03:12Ethan sat on the edge of the bed.
03:14Kara curled against his chest in a sheer silk robe.
03:18Luna, I'm so sorry you had to see me like this.
03:21I was just so frightened for my pup.
03:24Ethan's head snapped toward me.
03:26Guilt flickered across his face.
03:27What are you doing here?
03:28Go back to your room.
03:30I stepped inside.
03:31The room smelled of her perfume.
03:33I came to check on the woman who interrupted my mating ceremony.
03:36Surely that's a Luna's duty.
03:38To care for the pack's, shall we say, dependents.
03:42You're so kind, Luna.
03:43But I'm fine now.
03:45The alpha has calmed me.
03:46You can go.
03:50You're still here?
03:51I thought you'd have left by now.
03:53You hurt her.
03:55Leave.
03:55I didn't move.
03:57Alpha, the Lycan King himself will hear of this by morning.
04:00My eyes traveled from his disheveled hair.
04:03Do you understand?
04:05What you've done?
04:10Alpha, the Lycan King himself will hear of this by morning.
04:14Do you understand?
04:17What you've done?
04:19You wouldn't dare.
04:20You agreed to this mating.
04:22You agreed to look the other way.
04:25I agreed to respect and dignity.
04:27You gave me neither.
04:29A deal broken by one side is no deal at all.
04:34Please don't punish him for my sake.
04:36I'm just an Omega.
04:38Serena.
04:39If you threaten her again...
04:40I'm making a promise.
04:42You'll remember this night as the night you lost everything.
04:45I walked out without looking back.
04:46Behind me, I heard Tara's soft weeping and Ethan's soothing whispers.
04:51Let them whisper.
04:52Tomorrow, the real battle would begin.
04:54I spent the rest of our mating night alone in my three meter wide bed.
04:58My handmaiden wanted to rage.
05:00I told her to sleep.
05:01Grief for an arrogant man?
05:02Impossible.
05:03She agreed.
05:05I'm turning in.
05:06Saving my energy for tomorrow.
05:10The next morning, I rose before dawn.
05:13While Ethan was still sleeping off his drunk in Kara's room,
05:15I wore no headpiece at all, putting on a haggard look as a silent sign of my sorrow.
05:21Shall I wake the Alpha?
05:23My handmaiden said.
05:24No.
05:26Let him stay.
05:28I'll go alone.
05:29My lady!
05:30Her eyes widened.
05:31The more alone I appear, the more wronged I seem.
05:34And I have been wronged.
05:36I said seriously.
05:38Let the pack see it.
05:39She nodded in shock.
05:41At the appointed hour, I walked into the great hall without Ethan.
05:45Every eye turned.
05:46The elders frowned.
05:48My aunt, my father's sister, the Luna of the Duke's pack, sat in the place of honor.
05:54I walked straight to her and fell to my knees.
05:57Auntie, please stand up for me.
06:00I don't want this bond anymore.
06:02The hall erupted.
06:03My handmaiden dropped to her knees beside me, weeping.
06:07My lady, please stand up for our young miss.
06:09Last night, his mistress threatened suicide.
06:12The Alpha abandoned our miss to soothe her.
06:15He said she would be nothing but a figurehead.
06:17He would never truly be her mate.
06:22Ethan's mother looked utterly flustered.
06:24This must be a misunderstanding.
06:26Ethan is a good Alpha.
06:28A fine Alpha.
06:30Do you think our family has no one left to stand up for Serena?
06:34This is just a little squabble between a new couple.
06:37A squabble.
06:38The Alpha spent his mating night with a mistress.
06:41Let everyone see his true face.
06:44The pack house erupted into chaos.
06:47Bring the Alpha and that Omega here.
06:50Now!
06:52Lady Caldwell scrambled to block us.
06:54My aunt didn't wait.
06:55She led her attendants toward the mistress's wing.
06:58When they reached the entrance, they heard Kara's bright laughter.
07:02My Alpha, you promised.
07:03Today belongs only to me.
07:05You won't go pay respects with that woman.
07:07Of course.
07:09Serena Mitchell is a general's daughter.
07:11Rough around the edges.
07:12She could never compare to my Kara.
07:15You shameless wretch!
07:17Seize that woman!
07:18The two stopped, abruptly.
07:20And an awkward violence clung in the air.
07:24Servants pinned Kara to the ground.
07:26Lady Caldwell slapped and landed across her face.
07:29Kara's screams filled the wing.
07:3220 strokes!
07:33Now!
07:35Blood dripped on her lip.
07:37Ethan tried to intervene, but his mother blocked him.
07:39Fool!
07:40You've humiliated the Lion King's decree!
07:43This pack is ruined!
07:47Every Alpha keeps a mistress.
07:49Serena isn't the boss of me.
07:50My aunt's smile was cold.
07:52Lady Caldfield, your son has no intention of mending his ways.
07:57Come, Serena.
07:59We're going to the palace.
08:01I knelt before the Lycan Luna, my voice trembling just enough.
08:05Please, grant me the right to dissolve this bond.
08:08The mistress carries his pup.
08:11For a Luna to enter a pack with the firstborn already in a mistress' belly,
08:15that is an insult my family cannot overlook.
08:20Do you find this mating unsatisfied?
08:23Ethan will cherish his Luna.
08:25I beg mercy.
08:26The mistress has challenged the sacred order.
08:29She cannot keep this pup.
08:30Her voice fell like a blade.
08:33Lylan Luver, that child is my blood!
08:37Shut your mouth!
08:38Please!
08:40I'll banish Kara.
08:41I'll never see her again.
08:43Just let my son live!
08:45The pup was conceived in disrespect of a royal decree.
08:48Its existence is an insult to this court.
08:51The termination medicine will be delivered before nightfall.
08:54This audience is concluded.
08:56Ethan screamed.
08:57Lady Caldwell fainted.
09:00The pup dies tonight.
09:02The Luna's own handmaiden arrived at the pack house,
09:05carrying termination medicine.
09:06In front of everyone present,
09:08she poured every drop down Mistress Parker's throat.
09:13Before we left the Lycan King's estate,
09:16the Luna's own handmaiden arrived at the pack house,
09:18carrying termination medicine.
09:20In front of everyone present,
09:22she poured every drop down Mistress Parker's throat.
09:25By the time we returned to the pack house,
09:28Kara had already begun to bleed.
09:30The pup, a fully formed male, was lost.
09:33When Kara saw Ethan,
09:34she lunged from the bed into his arms.
09:37My alpha!
09:37They killed our child because I am low-born!
09:41The Luma is heartless!
09:43Then crumpled unconscious.
09:44Ethan's eyes went crimson.
09:46Serena Mitchell, you vicious woman.
09:49You killed my son! I will make you pay!
09:51He stormed into my wing,
09:53followed by a servant bearing a bowl of dark herbal brew.
09:57You don't deserve to carry my child.
10:00She drank termination medicine,
10:01now you drink this.
10:03He grabbed my arm and moved to force the brew into my mouth.
10:06Servants fell to their knees.
10:08Lady Caldwell came rushing in.
10:10Then the sound of heavy boots filled the corridors.
10:13A decree from the Lycan King!
10:15Prince Ronan stood behind the attendant.
10:17He saw the bowl and his face turned murderous.
10:20He stepped forward and pulled me behind him.
10:22Touch her and you lose your hand.
10:26By will of the Lycan King,
10:28Alpha Ethan Caldwell has disgraced his Luna
10:30and violated a royally decreed mating.
10:33The bond between Serena Mitchell and Alpha Ethan Caldwell
10:36is hereby dissolved.
10:37From this day forward,
10:39each shall be free to go their own way.
10:41You think you can just walk away?
10:43You had Kara lose our child!
10:46You broke your word.
10:47You spent your mating night with a mistress.
10:50The Mitchell family does not endure humiliation.
10:53No one will take a woman who has walked away from a mating.
10:56Kara was helped into the room.
10:58She clung to Ethan's arm.
10:59My Alpha.
11:01If you make her yours first,
11:04her heart will soften.
11:07You shameless mistress!
11:11Serena Mitchell.
11:13Tonight we will be a true mated pair.
11:16Once done, the bond cannot be undone.
11:21At that exact moment,
11:23the great doors burst open.
11:25A squad of warriors poured through.
11:27One man strode in ahead of all the rest.
11:29I ran straight into his arms.
11:31Father!
11:32The tears I had held back finally broke free.
11:35My father wrapped me in his arms.
11:37Serena, you don't have to worry anymore.
11:40I'd like to see anyone touch a single hair on your head.
11:44I believe I just heard something about making my daughter his.
11:48The Lycan King's decree grants dissolution.
11:51You plan to force her to stay?
11:53Ethan crumpled.
11:54Kara fainted.
11:55Father raised a hand.
11:56Take Alpha Ethan to the palace gates.
11:58Inform the Lycan King he defied royal decree.
12:02Retrieve Lady Serena's dowry.
12:03We're going home.
12:05The Mitchell family's 180 chests were carried out.
12:09Eight grand coaches took me back to the Mitchell estate.
12:12Let me go!
12:13You can't treat me like this!
12:15The next morning, before all the high-ranking warriors,
12:19he was given 30 lashes witnessed by every pair of eyes.
12:23He was carried back, covered in wounds.
12:26I will have my revenge.
12:28He ground out.
12:29But before the words left his mouth.
12:32By royal directive,
12:34Ethan is stripped of one year's management post
12:36and removed from all council duties.
12:40Alpha,
12:41Commander Mitchell has returned.
12:43Everyone is trying to get close to the Mitchell family.
12:46You threw away the best thing that ever happened to your pack.
12:50I advance through my own merit.
12:52But as he watched the pack house fall silent,
12:55not a single visitor,
12:56something in him shifted.
12:57Then came the Lycan King's moon feast.
12:59He entered the palace and from a distance,
13:02watched me arrive with my father,
13:04surrounded by high-ranking lunas
13:05trying to position their sons as potential mates.
13:08Kara had dressed in jewels bright enough to rival a luna.
13:11When she spotted me, a satisfied gleam lit her eyes.
13:14Miss Mitchell, I hear you have yet to find a suitable match.
13:18Once I carry Ethan's pup again,
13:20he will make me his luna.
13:21Ethan truly has remarkable nerve,
13:24bringing a mistress to a royal feast
13:26arranged by the Lywan Luna herself.
13:29Has he completely lost his mind?
13:33By the time Ethan pushed through the crowd,
13:35I quietly leaned toward him.
13:36Your only option is to tell the Lycan Luna
13:39that Kara is your true mate
13:40and make it official within three days.
13:43Otherwise, you may not make it out of this palace tonight.
13:49Ethan knelt before the Lycan Luna, cold sweat on his neck.
13:52Kara will be formally recognized as my Luna in three days.
13:56The hall went very still.
13:58The Lycan Luna looked at him with mockery.
14:01How devoted.
14:02Since she is to be your Luna,
14:04I will assign a senior handymaid to guide her
14:06so she does not embarrass herself.
14:08Kara was dizzy with joy.
14:10She only knew that from this moment forward,
14:12she was going to be Luna of the Hawthorn Pack.
14:14The moment they returned to the pack house,
14:16Kara let out an excited shriek.
14:18Ethan slapped her.
14:19You worthless woman!
14:21Because of you, the Hawthorn Pack
14:23will never hold its head up again!
14:24You can warm a bed,
14:25but do you have the breeding to be a Luna?
14:27The mother-in-law had not attended the feast.
14:29When the news reached her,
14:31her eyes rolled back and she collapsed.
14:33She died that night.
14:34Kara got what she wanted, the title of Luna.
14:36But when the Hawthorn Pack hosted a celebration feast,
14:39not a single council official or high-ranking Luna came.
14:42Kara stared at empty seats,
14:44and began to cry.
14:45Ethan slammed his fist.
14:46It is because of you!
14:47He stormed out and drank himself senseless in a tavern.
14:51The tavern was one of my family's establishments.
14:54The manager didn't dare move him,
14:56and came to tell me instead.
15:00They're here.
15:00When I appeared, Ethan grabbed my arm.
15:03Serena, can we start over?
15:05I'll make you my Luna.
15:07Kara can be sent far away.
15:08What do you say?
15:10Carry him back.
15:11Collect the tab from the Hawthorn Pack.
15:13But the very next morning,
15:14Ethan appeared at the Mitchell Estate
15:16with a full betrothal party.
15:18He knelt before my father and me.
15:21Serena, I came to formally court you again.
15:23You already have a mate.
15:25Where do you intend to put my daughter?
15:27If Commander Mitchell escrees,
15:29I will send her away immediately.
15:30I can make her simply disappear.
15:32Woman he had once treasured,
15:34my father let out a cold laugh.
15:36My daughter sharing a mate with a woman of that background?
15:40Get them out.
15:42Gifts were tossed after him.
15:44Then, from behind a screen, Kara emerged.
15:46Eyes swollen from crying.
15:49How could he say that?
15:50He wants me dead.
15:53I looked at her steadily.
15:54I brought you here to hear his words yourself.
15:57Because of you, his future is finished.
15:59He doesn't love you anymore.
16:00The moment he finds another highborn Luna,
16:03you will meet exactly that end.
16:06Kara left the Mitchell Estate alone.
16:08That night, Ethan came to her quarters.
16:10I need that jeweled hair mat.
16:12There's a birthday celebration for the Duke's eldest daughter.
16:15Once I earn his goodwill,
16:16I'll return it tenfold.
16:17Could it be that the Alpha has taken an interest
16:19in the Duke's daughter?
16:20If she comes to our pack,
16:21it would open every door.
16:23And what happens to me?
16:25You know you are the one I truly care for.
16:27Once she is settled,
16:28I'll raise you to secondary mate.
16:30As you once said,
16:31once the grain is cooked,
16:32what can she do?
16:33Kara smiled until her eyes grew wet.
16:36She rose.
16:38Let me change into something nicer
16:39and pour us a drink.
16:40She came back in a beautiful gown with aged wine.
16:43They drank cup after cup until he was drunk.
16:46When he woke, Kara was gone.
16:47The room was swept clean.
16:49On the table lay a dissolution letter
16:51with his thumbprint.
16:52She had fled.
16:54Then, Ethan discovered what she had slipped into his wine.
16:58He was weak.
16:59Something fundamental had been extinguished.
17:03Healers shook their heads.
17:04Whatever was in that brew is beyond our skill.
17:07We cannot undo this.
17:10Word spread quickly.
17:11The Hawthorne pack's Alpha was no longer capable of siring pups.
17:15When the old Alpha finally returned from the border,
17:18he found the pack in disorder.
17:21An indulgent mother raises a ruined son.
17:24He welcomed a woman into the pack house,
17:26along with two children.
17:28For years,
17:29he had kept an outside mate near the border.
17:31Today, I formally take this woman as my wife.
17:34And these two boys will be the legal heirs of the family.
17:37Purse this mabbley mesmon.
17:38I am the heir!
17:40Ethan Coldwell,
17:41you are a discarded piece.
17:43Your brother will inherit.
17:45If you don't know your place,
17:48leave.
17:48Ethan became the pack's outcast,
17:51the city's joke.
17:51He never raised his head again.
17:55As for me,
17:56my life was only beginning.
17:59One afternoon, I walked in the royal garden.
18:01A familiar figure stepped from behind a flowering tree.
18:04I once offered you power,
18:06but you deserve more.
18:08You deserve choice,
18:10respect, loyalty.
18:11If you will let me.
18:13I want to give you all of it.
18:21I would like that.
18:25He smiled and held out his hand.
18:28I placed mine in his.
18:32The days that followed were quiet.
18:34Suitors arrived daily.
18:36My father received them with polite indifference.
18:38None of them are worthy of you.
18:41But one afternoon, my aunt came.
18:44The Lycan Lua has been asking about you.
18:48She has someone in mind.
18:50Someone of very high standards.
18:52My heart stuttered.
18:55Rina.
18:57That night, I stood by my window,
18:59watching the moon rise.
19:00A figure stood beneath the old oak tree.
19:02Prince Ronin.
19:04He inclined his head and melted back into darkness.
19:06My heart did not stop racing.
19:09An official summons arrived.
19:10The Lycan Luna requested my presence for afternoon tea.
19:14Serena Mitchell.
19:16I have watched you since you were a girl.
19:18You have your mother's fire.
19:22My son speaks highly of you.
19:25Ronin is not a man who offers praise lightly.
19:29I told you once I would step in if he humiliated you again.
19:33But you did not need me.
19:34You handled everything yourself.
19:36You were magnificent.
19:38He bowed and walked away before I could respond.
19:40I felt something shift deep in my chest.
19:43Not power.
19:44Hope.
19:44Soon after, Ronin formally requested permission from my father to court me.
19:49My father found me in the library.
19:52He knelt, Serena.
19:53A prince knelt on my doorstep.
19:55I told him yes.
19:57Is this what you want?
19:59Yes.
20:01It is what I want.
20:05Ronin came that afternoon.
20:07You were like the sun.
20:12Bright and impossible to look away from.
20:18Ronin kissed me.
20:20He kissed me like I was something precious.
20:24Weeks passed.
20:26The capital buzzed with news of our courtship.
20:29Border skirmishes have erupted.
20:31I have to go.
20:35I will be here when you return.
20:39He kissed my forehead.
20:42Wait for me.
20:43The days that followed were long.
20:45Ronin's name appearing in dispatches as the Lion of the North.
20:48But in the capital, other stories spread.
20:50The Hawthorne pack had crumbled.
20:52Ethan's father returned from the border.
20:54Took one look at the mess.
20:55You are a disgrace.
20:57Your brother will inherit.
21:01Ethan was seen begging in taverns.
21:04His eyes hollow.
21:06No one gave him coin.
21:08Kara had disappeared completely.
21:09Neither mattered anymore.
21:11They had destroyed each other.
21:13Months passed.
21:14Winter turned to spring.
21:16Every day I watched the palace gates, waiting.
21:18Then one morning, the army had returned.
21:23Ronin rode at the head of the column.
21:25Armor scarred, face thinner, but eyes bright.
21:27When he saw me in the crowd, he dismounted and walked straight to me.
21:31Ignoring every protocol.
21:34I kept my promise.
21:36You did.
21:37I saw what happened to the Hawthorne pack while I was gone.
21:40Ethan and Kara have nothing now.
21:41They lost everything because they chose greed and betrayal.
21:46They made their own grave.
21:48I don't want that for us.
21:49I don't want power for power's sake.
21:51I want to build something that lasts.
21:53A pack.
21:54A territory.
21:55A future where Lunas have real authority.
21:58Not just titles.
22:00He looked into my eyes.
22:02Will you help me?
22:07Yes.
22:08Together.
22:12Together.
22:13The Lycan King granted Ronin a new territory on the eastern border.
22:16We moved there within a month.
22:18I built laws and schools.
22:20Together, we created something the capital had never seen.
22:24A pack where Luna and Alpha ruled as equals.
22:27Where Omegas had rights.
22:29Where mistresses could not be discarded like broken tools.
22:32Years later, the Lycan King himself visited our territory.
22:35He walked through the markets, the training grounds, the halls of justice.
22:40Then he turned to Ronin and me.
22:44You have built what I could not.
22:48Strength without cruelty.
22:50Order without oppression.
22:52You will have a seat on the Royal Council.
22:55My place is here.
22:58With her.
23:00The capital still told stories of Serena Mitchell.
23:03Two people who chose each other and chose to build a better world.
23:07Love is not about power.
23:09It is about what you build with it.
23:11We built something that will last forever.
23:13Ever.
