00:00Three days after the funeral, I seduced my dead mate's brother in front of the coffin.
00:04His fingers sank into my jaw like hooks.
00:06His thumb dragged across my lip.
00:08If you're the one coming to me, why are you shaking?
00:12Candlelight flickered.
00:13I wore nothing but thin morning linen.
00:15My back pressed against cold oak.
00:18I was outside, watching the snow.
00:21Fragile thing.
00:23Then he covered me with his body. I lied.
00:25I wasn't watching snow. I was watching death approach.
00:27In my first life, Silverstone Pax sent me to Blackstone as a peace bride.
00:32My mate Alistair died three days after our wedding.
00:35Still with his father in battle against my own people.
00:37Three months later, his mother, Luna Morrigan, gave me poisoned wine in this same hall.
00:42Daughter of the enemy, cursed widow.
00:44Your death will sever the Alliance and declare war!
00:55My soul rose up, trapped, forced to watch everything.
01:00I watched this man, Cassian, the one now pinning me against his brother's coffin,
01:04spend three years drawing Silverstone blood until the Pax bowed to one rule.
01:09I watched him hold a dagger to his own mother's throat for a shepherd girl with grey eyes.
01:14And it was in the mother-son pair's fight, the only locket flew and passed through my ghostly heart.
01:19I woke up in the morning hall.
01:21I woke up in the morning hall.
01:23Three months from now, that silver cup would come again.
01:25I needed a way out.
01:26A way that would make Luna Morrigan spare me something like...
01:29Focus.
01:30The man above me bit out, impatient.
01:32Cassian.
01:33My voice sounded steady.
01:34Steadier than I felt.
01:36Then be rougher.
01:36His breath caught.
01:38I kissed him first.
01:39He froze for half a heartbeat, surprised perhaps, that I dared.
01:43Then his hand locked at my skull, and he took the kiss deeper, harder, like a man starving,
01:47and I was the only meal in reach.
01:49The coffin was ice against my back.
01:51His palm was fire against my breast.
01:53I climbed his shoulders, let the morning gown slide down one arm,
01:56and felt his teeth graze the pulse point of my throat.
01:59Or ragged breathing filled the hall.
02:01Candlelight threw our tangled shadows across the coffin lid.
02:04I needed a child.
02:05A child Luna Morrigan would believe was the last bloodline of her dead eldest son.
02:09I needed to survive.
02:11That night after.
02:12The study.
02:13The garden.
02:14My side chamber.
02:15By the bookshelf.
02:17In the snow.
02:18Beside Alistair's coffin.
02:19I learned his scent.
02:20I learned when his guard dropped.
02:22I learned to wrap my legs tighter to make him spend himself inside me with desperate force.
02:27Every time he fell asleep beside me,
02:29I would take out a moonbloom leaf and press it to my flat belly.
02:33Close my eyes.
02:34Pray in silence.
02:35Moon goddess above.
02:37Tell me the result.
02:38After a moth, I opened my eyes and saw the moonbloom leaf glowing silver in the moonlight.
02:43Poison cup arrived as I sat beside Alistair's coffin.
02:46Luna Morrigan wore Black Morning, the silver cup in her hand.
02:49Her eyes like two blocks of ice.
02:52Alistair has been gone three months.
02:54Now, it is time you are to join him.
02:57The liquid in the cup was clear.
02:59I knew that taste in my first life.
03:01It had burned like fire flowing down my throat.
03:04I cannot join Alistair.
03:06I carry his child.
03:08Her hand froze.
03:10Impossible.
03:11Alistair never marked you before his death.
03:14He marked me.
03:15Our wedding night.
03:16Don't you remember?
03:17I was gambling.
03:18Gambling that a mother would choose to believe her son had left him.
03:21behind blood.
03:22Gambling that she would not.
03:23At this moment, kill her own grandchild with her own hands.
03:26She stared at me for a long time.
03:28Then she set down the silver cup.
03:31Summon the moon priest.
03:33Verify.
03:38Verify whether the child in her womb carries my son's blood.
03:42Madam Cecilia, swear upon the moon goddess and any lie shall find no hiding place under her.
03:48The priest held the moonbloom leaf, his gaze sharp as winter frost.
03:54Witnessed by the moon goddess, I, Cecilia Silverstone, swear that the child in my womb is black stone blood.
04:00Luna Morrigan's grandchild.
04:04The moonbloom leaf in the priest's hand burst into silver light.
04:08The moonbloom tree confirms it is true.
04:12Luna Morrigan's eyes narrowed upon me, suspicion coiling like smoke.
04:15How convenient this child's timing.
04:18I held my breath, but she only turned her gaze to the glowing leaf, then waved her hand at me.
04:23Go.
04:24Rest.
04:24My legs trembled, but I steadied myself, walked calmly out of the morning hall.
04:29I stepped into the sunlit corridor.
04:30For the first time, the air of the third month tasted sweet.
04:33Then darkness crashed over me.
04:35Suffocation seized my throat.
04:37Cassian pinned me against a corridor pillar, his fingers ironed around my neck.
04:41You schemed on me.
04:43Not a question.
04:44A verdict.
04:45His eyes burned with the same fury I had seen in my first life when he pressed his dagger to
04:49his mother's throat.
04:51Three months.
04:54You schemed to approach me.
04:56All for this child?
04:58I looked up at him, my back pressed against the pillow, cold as the coffin had been three months before.
05:03Yes.
05:04He faltered.
05:05Perhaps he had expected denial.
05:07Wait for death or fight to live.
05:09Which would you choose?
05:11You.
05:12You think I should accept my fate with meek obedience?
05:15You know I was Silverstone's sacrifice.
05:17You know I had nowhere to go.
05:20You know your mother, Luna Morissel.
05:22Once the war between Blackstone and Silverson erupts fully, she will kill me as a banner for battle.
05:26You know?
05:27My voice cracked.
05:28You know nothing.
05:29You think I watched Clonely from the side?
05:32You have no idea what merciful arrangement I made for you.
05:36I froze.
05:37He stared at me.
05:38Fine.
05:40Since you think me an accomplice, let me show you what an accomplice can do.
05:44He seized my wrist, dragged me down the corridor, kicked open a door.
05:47I fell onto the bed.
05:49The shadow fell over me like a storm long overdue.
05:52You schemed on me.
05:53He breathed against my ear, his teeth grazing the lobe.
05:57Then scheme this to the end.
06:00That night, he had no gentleness left.
06:02His teeth sank into my shoulder.
06:04My nails carved furrows down his back.
06:06Yet his hands cradled my belly with desperate care.
06:09In the dawn, he fell asleep.
06:10I turned to study him.
06:11Moonlight poured through the window.
06:13Gilding his lashes, softening the hard lines of his face.
06:16In sleep, he looked almost harmless.
06:18I rose quietly, gathering my scattered clothes from the floor.
06:21Where are you going?
06:22His voice came from behind me, sharp, despite the hour.
06:25Luna Moriare will send someone to check.
06:28I cannot be found here.
06:31I prepared a deathfall streft for you.
06:33My hands stopped on my bodice.
06:35A cabin in the north.
06:36A new name.
06:37His voice was low, almost hollow.
06:39You could have lived.
06:40Freely.
06:41Not as my brother's widow.
06:43Not as-
06:43He paused, the word catching.
06:45Not as the woman who schemed on me.
06:46I turned to face him.
06:47He sat up in bed, the sheet sliding to his waist.
06:50His eyes bright in the darkness.
06:52Cassian, would you defy your mother's command to set me free?
06:56He looked at me for a long time.
06:58Come here.
06:59I walked over.
07:00He pulled my hand, dragged me into his arms.
07:02His heartbeat was fast, matching mine.
07:05I plan to hide you.
07:06Make you belong only to me.
07:07The Blackstone's secret draft.
07:09False death.
07:11New identity.
07:12His fingers tangled in my hair.
07:13You will be mine.
07:15Not my brother's widow.
07:16Not Blackstone's young mistress, just-
07:19He lowered his head.
07:20Kissed my forehead.
07:21Mine.
07:22Mistress in the dark.
07:23The idea detonated in my skull.
07:25I shoved him away hard.
07:27This is your mercy?
07:28What?
07:29False death.
07:30New identity.
07:31Hidden away.
07:32To be your secret mistress?
07:34Cecilia.
07:35What difference is there from waiting to die?
07:37It's walked toward the door.
07:38The difference is, you would live.
07:41I stopped at the door, hand on the latch.
07:43Live.
07:44As your pet?
07:45Until I die unknown?
07:47I pulled the door open, walked out.
07:49Morning light stabbed my eyes.
07:50After that day, Cassian left for battle.
07:53Luna Morrigan no longer mentioned the poisoned cup, but under her silent order, the servants
07:57ignored every request I made for daily necessities.
08:00Cold leftovers.
08:01Thin, warm winter clothes.
08:03My belly grew day by day.
08:04I needed a new path.
08:06Asterisk, I began appearing at Luna Morrigan's side.
08:09Morning herbal tea afternoon walks.
08:11Evening prayers, I did not speak.
08:13Only kept her company.
08:14Two weeks passed.
08:15One day, she spoke to me.
08:17You are a quiet child.
08:19Quieter than I thought.
08:20Also smarter than I thought.
08:22I was gambling.
08:23Gambling that a mother who had lost her son needed someone to fill the emptiness.
08:28Cecilia, you are finding a way to live?
08:30My heart raced, but I only nodded.
08:32Show me your value.
08:33Cassian should take a mate.
08:35Help him choose a suitable one.
08:37Yes, Luna Morrigan.
08:38The day Cassian returned, I waited for him at the manor gates.
08:42He rode at the head of a column of blackstone wolf warriors.
08:45A long train of war spoils behind him.
08:47Cassian.
08:48On horseback, his gaze swept over the crowd locked on me, then slid down to my slightly
08:52rounded belly.
08:53Then he rode past me without a word.
08:55I stepped forward to block his path.
08:57Cecilia, long time no see.
08:59I have a surprise for you.
09:00Tomorrow, the back garden.
09:02What surprise?
09:04Come and you'll know.
09:05He straightened, lips pressed thin, deigning to nod.
09:08I exhaled, he had agreed.
09:10Then he pointed to a carriage behind him.
09:11Find her some work.
09:13Picked her up on the road.
09:15No sheep.
09:17I turned.
09:18The carriage curtain lifted.
09:19A gray-eyed girl looked at me, timid.
09:21My blood turned to ice.
09:23Aayla, the shepherd girl from the first life.
09:26The one he had killed his mother for.
09:27Of course.
09:28Cassian brings back such a pretty girl.
09:31She must be well arranged.
09:33Cassian's expression turned playful watching me.
09:35Was this his warning not to mistreat Aayla?
09:37Surely his true love from the previous life.
09:40I'll arrange it personally.
09:42How about some simple banquet service work?
09:44Whatever.
09:45Cassian dropped a whatever and left.
09:47The next day, Cassian came to the back garden.
09:49He wore a deep blue formal coat.
09:51His hair bound back.
09:52A bouquet of white roses in his hand.
09:54He smiled, striding toward me.
09:57He looked at me, lips curving.
09:59Something in his gaze making my heart skip.
10:01Then he looked past my shoulder.
10:02Saw what lay behind me.
10:04Wolf maidens gathered silk gems laughter.
10:07Twelve pairs of eyes fixed on him like wolves on fresh meat.
10:10His steps faltered.
10:11The smile froze on his face.
10:12Luna Morrigan stepped out from the pavilion.
10:14Satisfaction rare on her features.
10:17Well done.
10:18Thorough arrangements.
10:21Cassian even dressed up.
10:23Knows to bring gifts to please.
10:25Cassian's expression changed.
10:26Excuse us for a moment.
10:28He seized my hand, dragged me into the shadow of a corridor pillar.
10:31White rose petals crushed between his fingers.
10:34Their fragrance sharp.
10:35This is your carefully prepared surprise?
10:37Bringing me here to pick a noble mate?
10:39My back pressed against the pillar.
10:41Cold as the coffin had been three months before.
10:43This was Luna Morrigan's demand.
10:46He stared at me, eyes burning.
10:47Then he laughed.
10:48That dangerous laugh.
10:49Fine.
10:50Then let me show you my surprise.
10:52Cassian pulled me back to the garden center.
10:55Mother, there is already someone in my heart.
10:58He gripped my hand.
10:59I struggled.
11:00Tried to shake him off.
11:01But he would not release.
11:02Luna Morrigan frowned.
11:04Do not jest.
11:05No jest.
11:05I feared he would speak madness.
11:07I wrenched at his fingers with all my strength.
11:10The one I desire.
11:10His hand finally torn from mine.
11:12His eyes on me.
11:13Is her.
11:14All gazes followed his pointing finger to me.
11:17I froze.
11:18Screaming inwardly ruined crashed behind me, force then shattered.
11:21I turned one step away, stood Aayla.
11:24Who is this girl?
11:25Cassian fell silent.
11:26Aayla only looked at him timid.
11:28Cecilia, you tell me.
11:29I turned, my face stiffening to Luna Morrigan.
11:31The shepherd girl I brought back.
11:33Aayla.
11:34Luna Morrigan's expression shifted.
11:35She looked past me to the girl behind me.
11:38A low-born woman who bewitches Blackstone's future alpha should die.
11:44I could not tell which of us she meant.
11:46Aayla is my beloved.
11:47Cassian's hand clenched into a fist.
11:49Though his voice was not loud, the entire garden heard.
11:52I exhaled.
11:53My fingers stopped tingling.
11:55My heartbeat dropped from my throat back to my chest.
11:58He had chosen her.
11:59Just as in the first life, history was repeating itself.
12:02And I.
12:02I was merely the one standing beside.
12:05Luna Morrigan's expression did not change.
12:07She only waved her hand.
12:09The ball is dismissed.
12:10The twelve wolf maidens exchanged glances.
12:12Then lowered their heads and withdrew.
12:15Aayla remained standing.
12:16Gray eyes on the shattered porcelain.
12:18Soup stains at her feet.
12:19You stay.
12:22And you.
12:23The door closed behind us.
12:25Luna Morrigan sat in the master's seat.
12:27Cassian stood.
12:28Aayla knelt.
12:29I stood by the corridor pillar like a shadow.
12:31Kill her.
12:32Tonight.
12:33Who?
12:35The shepherd girl.
12:36Impossible.
12:37Luna Morrigan's fingers tapped the armrest slow, like a countdown.
12:41Cassian, you are the future alpha.
12:43Your mate must be the Pax Luna, not some roadside shepherd girl.
12:47I choose myself.
12:48You choose?
12:52Do you choose a mate?
12:53Or do you choose rebellion?
12:55Cassian's shoulders tensed.
12:57I knew this stance in my first life.
12:59Before he pressed the dagger to her throat, he had stood just so.
13:02Your need for control.
13:04But when will it end?
13:06When you become alpha.
13:07I am alpha now.
13:09You are the future.
13:10Since your father's death, since your brother's death, until I make you so, you are only Cassia,
13:14my son.
13:15The air froze.
13:16Aayla's knees trembled.
13:18I looked at her, remembering myself kneeling in the morning hall.
13:21We were both chips, both tools, both.
13:24I choose the one I desire as my mate.
13:26She cannot become Luna.
13:28I do not need Luna.
13:29Every alpha needs a Luna.
13:31Otherwise, the Pax splits, bleeds, falls to...
13:34Falls to what?
13:36Like father?
13:37Like brother?
13:38Dying under silver steel blades?
13:40Her expression finally changed.
13:42You hate me.
13:43Because you believe I drove them to their deaths.
13:46Did you not?
13:49They chose the battlefield themselves, not I.
13:52Cassian looked at her for a long time.
13:54Then swiftly, he glanced at me.
13:56He turned, took Aayla's hand.
13:57She will not die, unless you kill me first.
14:02Cassian passed by me without another look.
14:04Luna Morrigan turned, her gaze passing over me to the garden beyond.
14:08Cecilia, you saw this is the future alpha.
14:13Weak, bewitched, taken by...
14:15By what?
14:16She did not answer.
14:17She only waved her hand, dismissing me.
14:19As I turned, I heard her whisper.
14:21By love.
14:22After that night, Cassian brought Aayla into his porters.
14:25I heard he gave her the best chamber.
14:27Heard he sent her silk gowns.
14:29Heard he seated her at his right hand during dinner.
14:31Luna Morrigan said nothing.
14:33She only had me bring more herbal tea, more afternoon walks, more silent companionship.
14:37She was waiting, as was I.
14:39My belly grew rounder.
14:40The moon-bloom leaf glowed in my palm.
14:43The priest pronounced the child healthy, the bloodline pure.
14:46Said Luna Morrigan should be pleased.
14:47But she only nodded, her eyes on the window toward Cassian's quarters.
14:51Cecilia, she said suddenly.
14:53How long do you think Aayla will live?
14:55My hand stilled.
14:56Alistair hated me.
14:57She said, not looking at me.
14:59Because I forced him to marry a stranger.
15:01You.
15:01She turned to me, looking at my belly.
15:03But I was right.
15:04At least this preserved his bloodline.
15:06Do you not agree?
15:07I dared not respond.
15:09Afraid the moon-bloom leaf in my palm would expose my lie.
15:12Now Cassian hates me.
15:14History repeats.
15:16What should I do?
15:17I looked at her.
15:18This woman who had killed me in my first life now asking me what to do.
15:22What do you wish me to do?
15:23She smiled.
15:24That smile.
15:25Identical to when she had offered me poisoned wine in my first life.
15:28She produced the same silver cup.
15:30I was not surprised.
15:32Clear liquid identical to before.
15:34Aayla must die.
15:35Luna Morrigan pushed the cup toward me.
15:38Or you join her after you deliver the child.
15:41I cannot kill an innocent.
15:43Then you are useless.
15:44Useless people should not consume Blackstone's resources.
15:48After she left, the poisoned cup remained on the table.
15:51The days that followed returned to what they had been.
15:53Cold meals.
15:54Thin clothes.
15:55Servants looking through me as if I were heir.
15:57This time.
15:57I knew it was Luna Morrigan's design.
16:00She was forcing me.
16:01Forcing me to move against Aayla.
16:02I could not.
16:03Harming the innocent was not my way.
16:05Let alone, Aayla was Cassian's chosen beloved.
16:08In my first life after death, I had watched him draw his dagger against his own mother
16:12Luna Morrigan for this woman.
16:13If harm came to Aayla, in the future he would make me pay in blood.
16:16Yet I could not defy Luna Morrigan.
16:19If I did not act against Aayla, she would make my life unbearable.
16:22What could I do?
16:23As long as I remained here between these two, I would find no path to survival.
16:27Here.
16:28Here.
16:28The thought struck.
16:29Leave.
16:30Leave this place.
16:30No longer the enemy's daughter, the widow who cursed the family heir.
16:34But how to escape the heavily guarded Blackstone Manor.
16:37I needed the death false draft.
16:39Cassian had spoken of it.
16:40The Blackstone's secret draft.
16:42I infiltrated Cassian's quarters.
16:44A few maids passed.
16:45I hid behind a corridor pillar.
16:48Aayla is so fortunate.
16:49Prince Cassian visits her every night.
16:51I watched Cassian enter Aayla's chamber.
16:53The lamp burned for a long while.
16:55Good their world of two.
16:56Time for me.
16:57Study hidden compartment.
16:59Secret chamber.
17:00I searched every place until at last I found a plain white porcelain bottle by his bed.
17:04My hands trembled as I opened it.
17:06The smell was sharp, but I could not tell if it was what I need.
17:10I took out the moonbloom leaf, pressed it to the bottle, closed my eyes.
17:13Moonbloom tree above, reveal the truth.
17:15The leaf glowed.
17:17Images flooded in.
17:18Not the draft ingredients, Cassian.
17:20Standing bathed in the moonlight.
17:22Leaf in hand, eyes closed, murmuring.
17:24The vision shifted.
17:25He looked at me in the morning hall, in the study.
17:27In the garden, his heart racing.
17:29His temperature rising.
17:31His wolf spirit restless.
17:32Not Aayla.
17:33Me every time he entered Aayla's chamber.
17:35He stood at the window, looking toward my direction.
17:38Every time he said, my beloved.
17:40His fingers clenched, as if enduring pain.
17:42The moonbloom leaf does not lie.
17:44You saw.
17:45My eyes flew open.
17:47Cassian stood in the doorway, face pale.
17:49You came to steal the deathfall stroked.
17:51I stepped back, my spine hitting the wall.
17:53Uncertain if it was real?
17:55Luna ordered me to kill Aayla, or die with her.
17:58He entered, closed the door.
18:00Then die.
18:01False death.
18:02I will help you.
18:04Why?
18:05Why help me?
18:06He approached, hand covering mine on the leaf.
18:09Because I love you.
18:10The moonbloom tree bears witness.
18:12The moonbloom leaf burst into light.
18:14He drew closer, hands on my shoulders.
18:17The deathfall strafed.
18:18The northern cabin.
18:20New identity.
18:21Freedom.
18:22You still want me as your secret mistress?
18:24Never.
18:24Only temporary.
18:26Until I am no longer under my mother's coercion.
18:28Until she poses no threat to you.
18:30One hand tangled in my hair.
18:31The other took the porcelain bottle from my grasp.
18:34The real draft is in a safer place.
18:36In three days, it is mother's birthday banquet.
18:39In the chaos, I will give it to you.
18:42Why help me?
18:45Because you are mine.
18:47I watched Cassian walk into Aayla's chamber.
18:49The lamp burned.
18:50I hid behind the corridor pillar.
18:52It was deep night.
18:53I saw him stand at the window, looking toward my direction.
18:55Aayla sat at the bed's edge.
18:57Gray eyes on him.
18:58Like looking at a door that would not open.
19:00My lord, will you not rest?
19:02You sleep.
19:03I will watch.
19:04Watch what?
19:05Watch whom?
19:06I thought of my first life.
19:07At the altar, I saw him press the dagger to Luna's throat.
19:10I saw him go mad for Aayla.
19:12But perhaps all of it, performance, Aayla was only a shield.
19:15In that life, he fought his mother for power.
19:17In this one, part of that fight was for me.
19:20The morning of the banquet, Luna summoned me at the tower.
19:23Cecilia.
19:24You have been restless these days.
19:26I said nothing.
19:27My heart tightened.
19:29Cassian and you.
19:30Did you think I did not know?
19:31My blood turned to ice.
19:33Aayla is merely a shield.
19:35He thinks he has won.
19:37But he is only my son.
19:40Luna Morian, I do not understand.
19:42What misunderstanding?
19:43What misunderstanding?
19:44That my second son fell in love with my first son's widow and got her with child?
19:47I collapsed, shock draining my strength.
19:50But I clung to hope.
19:51The child in my womb is your grandchild.
19:53Enemy blood.
19:54Bastard born of adultery, unfit to taint the family line.
19:58She waved her hand.
19:59Two blackstone warriors emerged from the shadows.
20:02Deal with her.
20:03While today's banquet burns bright, let us add some fire.
