no longer yours my alpha
Transcript
00:00Even if you plan to run away with her, it doesn't change that this pup carries your blood.
00:05My head struck against it heavily, and warm blood immediately began trickling down my neck.
00:10Yet, Ciaran did not even look back as he swept Cecilia into his arms and rushed out.
00:17Ciaran.
00:18Cecilia sobbed weakly against his chest.
00:20You're not pup. You okay?
00:23Don't be afraid. I'm here.
00:26He replied, his voice tenderly reassuring.
00:30Each word piercing my ears.
00:31You'll be fine, and so will the pup.
00:33When Ciaran carried Cecilia out of the mansion, I was still slumped on the floor with blood trickling down my
00:39neck from the back of my head.
00:40I watched his retreating figure, so urgent, and panicked.
00:45Yet, he never looked back once.
00:47I looked down at the pool of blood beneath me and suddenly laughed, and the sound was bleak.
00:52Later, I took a carriage to the hospital, alone.
00:55The doctor saw how severe my injury was, and immediately began stitching and bandaging the wound.
01:01By the time they finished treating me, I had lost so much blood that I was dizzy and could barely
01:05stand.
01:06I had just stumbled out of the examination room when someone grabbed my wrist roughly.
01:10Elise, Cecilia almost miscarried, yet you still wouldn't stop.
01:17You followed us to the hospital to cause more trouble.
01:20Ciaran's voice was tight with rage.
01:22His brow was furrowed deeply, and his eyes held a bone-chilling coldness.
01:26He still carried Cecilia's suffocating perfume scent on his clothes.
01:30I came to the hospital, but not for her.
01:33I pointed to my freshly bandaged forehead.
01:36I was injured too, and I couldn't treat it myself.
01:39Ciaran's expression froze.
01:41He finally noticed the strong scent of blood on me.
01:44Masked by antiseptic and the thick gauze still seeping red.
01:48Ciaran, you said that once she delivered the pot, you'd take me away.
01:52I said, looking at him as my nose began to sting.
01:55But now, do you even see me anymore?
01:58Ciaran's frown deepened as he reached out tenderly to touch my wound.
02:01What happened here?
02:03You pushed me.
02:04I said calmly, dodging his touch.
02:06I hit the book, Chefs.
02:10To you, it was just a casual shove, wasn't it?
02:13Ciaran's pupils contracted as he recalled the force he had used in his moment of rage.
02:18For a human, it could have been fatal.
02:20He pulled me into his arms, guiltily.
02:22Lys, I'm sorry.
02:23I didn't mean to.
02:25I was just afraid something would happen to Cecilia.
02:28She's carrying the pack's future.
02:29If anything went wrong, the Elder's Council would never forgive us,
02:32and our departure would be delayed again.
02:34I let him hold me while staring blankly at the sterile white ceiling.
02:38I had heard these excuses too many times before.
02:41I understand.
02:42I said, pushing him away.
02:44I said, being careful.
02:45I turned to leave, but he grabbed my wrist again.
02:48Elise, no matter what, you have to believe that I only love you.
02:53Everything I do is to help us escape this prison as quickly as possible.
02:58Ciaran released my hand and, as he walked away, said,
03:01When I get home, I'll bring you your favorite cranberry cupcake.
03:05With that, he headed toward the private healing chamber at the end of the corridor,
03:09where Cecilia was being cared for by the pack's finest healers.
03:13I stood there, watching him disappear into the distance.
03:16Suddenly, I laughed, and tears began streaming down my face.
03:19I don't believe I am.
03:21I whispered to the empty air and to my own dying heart.
03:24Ciaran, I will never believe any of your promises ever again.
03:29Ciaran was gone for three days straight.
03:31During those three days, Cecilia sent me taunting letters every single day.
03:36Cecilia, what the hell do you want from me?
03:39My voice shaking with barely contained rage.
03:42I could almost hear her soft, mocking laugh through the ink.
03:46Oh, nothing much.
03:47I just thought you should see how happy your husband is without you.
03:50Three days, and he hasn't even mentioned your name once.
03:52The letter ended there abruptly.
03:54In my mind's eye, I saw Ciaran gently coaxing Tyra with toys,
03:58while Cecilia leaned intimately against his shoulder,
04:02smiling sweetly as she watched the father-daughter interaction.
04:05I endured the heartache and read every letter she sent.
04:08She wrote about him keeping watch by her hospital bed deep into the night,
04:13feeding her soup, and holding Tyra with nothing but adoration in his eyes.
04:17Each word felt like a needle piercing my heart.
04:20The pain kept coming until suddenly, I realized I could not feel it anymore.
04:23Perhaps my heart had already died the moment I was locked in that ice cell.
04:28I was about to burn her letters when a servant brought another package.
04:31Inside was a sketch of my mom's crystal bracelet being toyed with in Cecilia's hands.
04:35Want your mother's keepsake?
04:37Then come get it.
04:38I shot to my feet so fast that my vision went black from the lingering blood loss.
04:44Yet, I did not care.
04:46I grabbed my coat and rushed out.
04:48In the hospital room, Cecilia was holding Tyra and humming a lullaby softly.
04:53Daddy loves you the most, doesn't he?
04:56Daddy's alpha power will be passed down to you someday.
05:00She looked up when she saw me, her smile deepening.
05:03You came.
05:04Did you know that during my stay here, Ciaran hasn't even gone on his territory patrols.
05:09He's been right here, using his pheromones to comfort me.
05:14And our future heir.
05:16She deliberately emphasized the word heir.
05:18My nails dug deep into my palms as I asked coldly,
05:21Where's the bracelet?
05:22Cecilia leisurely picked up the antique crystal bracelet from the bedside table,
05:26and dangled it from her fingertips.
05:28You mean this?
05:29She flashed a cruel smile.
05:31Here's the deal.
05:33With your human body.
05:34Bow to me, Ciaran's future Luna.
05:37And I'll consider giving it back.
05:40I trembled with rage.
05:41Don't go too far.
05:43Cecilia's eyes were full of disdain.
05:45Her arrogance on full display.
05:47So what if I do?
05:49Elise, you're nothing but a fragile, short-lived human.
05:52While I possess the purest alpha bloodline,
05:55what right do you have to compete with me for Ciaran's affection?
05:59Bowing to me is an honor.
06:00She pretended to loosen her grip.
06:03I'll count to three.
06:05If you don't get on your knees, I'll drop it.
06:07Two.
06:08One.
06:09I bit my lips so hard I nearly drew blood.
06:12My knees felt like they were filled with lead,
06:14but they finally crashed heavily onto the cold floor
06:17as I bowed down with my forehead touching the ground.
06:20Cecilia burst out laughing.
06:22Look at you.
06:24You really do look like a pathetic dog.
06:27She raised her hand and I reached out to catch it.
06:30However, she released her fingers just half a step away from me.
06:34The crystal bracelet shattered on the floor, breaking into several pieces.
06:39Cecilia covered her grin with a look of mock surprise.
06:42Oh my!
06:43How careless of you!
06:44You couldn't even catch it!
06:46I trembled and had just lunged forward to gather the pieces
06:49when Cecilia suddenly screamed and fell backward against the wall.
06:53At that moment, the door was violently pushed open.
06:56Ciaran and Lucian stood in the doorway with grim expressions,
07:00followed by several other elders.
07:02What are you doing?
07:04Lucian demanded sternly,
07:05his voice carrying alpha authority that made me feel suffocated.
07:10Cecilia threw herself into Ciaran's arms, crying.
07:12Ciaran, my stomach hurts so much.
07:15Oh, and checked Tyra quickly.
07:18I just saw Elise pinching and hitting her.
07:20Ciaran frantically picked up the puck to examine her,
07:23lifting her clothes to reveal tender skin covered in purple bruises from pinching.
07:27I stared in disbelief.
07:30I didn't!
07:31I never even touched her!
07:34I shook my head desperately as Lucian glared at me with venom in his eyes.
07:38Suddenly, a blow heavy with werewolf strength struck me across the face.
07:43My vision went black, my ears rang, and blood dripped from the corner of my mouth.
07:47You vile woman.
07:49Lucian's voice sounded like an echo.
07:50You dare harm a pregnant she-wolf and an innocent pup?
07:56Another elder said coldly,
07:57The last punishment was too lenient.
08:00Guards, drag her to the punishment chamber and give her 20 flamshies.
08:05Ciaran clenched his fists tightly and stepped forward.
08:08Elders, you still want to protect her?
08:11Lucian interrupted harshly,
08:13She harmed your own bloodline.
08:15Even if you plan to run away with her,
08:17it doesn't change that this pup carries your blood.
08:20I trembled, instinctively looking toward Ciaran.
08:23He still stood there with his knuckles white from clenching.
08:27In the punishment chamber, wolfguards pinned me down,
08:30forcing me to kneel on the stone slab in the center.
08:32The first lash came down, and my vision went black.
08:36In a daze, I remembered when I had broken up with Ciaran,
08:39on the day he decided to rebel against his family, to be with me.
08:43That night it poured rain, and he stood outside my window,
08:47letting the storm drench him until he burned with a high fever.
08:50When I went to see him, he was delirious with fever.
08:53Yet, he still grabbed my hand and said,
08:55Elise, remember, even if it means fighting the whole world,
09:00I want only you as my mate.
09:02At the 15th lash, I seemed to hear his gentle voice from years ago,
09:06when I was injured.
09:07How did you get hurt again?
09:09Let me lick it.
09:11It won't hurt for much longer.
09:13Finally, the last lash struck, and I could not hold on anymore.
09:17My vision went black as I completely passed out.
09:20Just before losing consciousness,
09:22I saw Ciaran anxiously pulling me into his arms.
09:26When I woke up again, I was lying face down on a bed.
09:29Even the slightest movement sent searing pain across my back.
09:34Elise!
09:35Ciaran immediately rushed over, his eyes bloodshot with exhaustion.
09:39You're awake.
09:41Does it still hurt?
09:42I silently pulled my hand away, unwilling to look at him.
09:46Ciaran stiffened for a moment before speaking again to explain.
09:50Elise, it's not that I didn't want to stop them,
09:52but in that situation, the more I resisted,
09:55the harsher the Elder's punishment would have been.
09:58Elder Lucian even considered executing you.
10:00I had to protect your life first.
10:03So, I said with a hoarse voice,
10:05You also believe I hurt your pup?
10:08Ciaran's Adam's apple bobbed once.
10:10Ultimately, he chose silence.
10:12This moment of silence was like a dull blade,
10:15brutally cutting through my last shred of hope.
10:18With reddened eyes, I slowly said,
10:20I'll ask you just one question.
10:22Ciaran Wolfe, in the name of the moon and our mate bond.
10:26Do you believe me?
10:28Ciaran frowned, anger creeping into his voice.
10:31Elise, there are bruises on Tyra,
10:33and Cecilia named you herself.
10:36There's a witness and evidence.
10:38How do you expect me to believe you?
10:40Didn't I tell you that everything would be fine once this was all over?
10:43Why did you have to provoke Cecilia?
10:45My tears suddenly started falling.
10:48I thought I would not feel pain anymore,
10:50but my chest still felt like it was being viciously torn apart.
10:53I hurriedly turned my head away,
10:55not wanting him to see me looking so pathetic and weak.
10:58Go.
10:59I whispered so quietly it was barely audible.
11:02Just wait a little longer, okay?
11:04His voice softened as he tried to approach me again.
11:07Soon, once Cecilia gives birth to this pup,
11:10we'll definitely be able to leave.
11:12I swear,
11:14I'll take you to see the southern seas that never freeze.
11:18We would go back to how things were?
11:20I closed my eyes,
11:21my throat tightening.
11:22I knew well that we could never go back.
11:25After all,
11:25he had Cecilia now,
11:27and two pups.
11:28For their sake,
11:29he had hurt me again and again,
11:31choosing others over me time after time.
11:33I slowly turned over to face away from him,
11:36not wanting to say another word.
11:38Kieran looked at me,
11:39his face twisted with pain.
11:41In the end,
11:42he only reached out to brush my hair,
11:44whispering,
11:45Sleep.
11:45I'll stay here with you.
11:47Before he even finished,
11:48the door was violently pushed open,
11:50and a beater stood there frantically.
11:52Alpha,
11:53Miss Donati has been crying and calling for you.
11:56The healer says emotional fluctuations may hurt the pup.
11:58Kieran frowned.
12:00He glanced at my turned back and hesitated for a moment.
12:03Then he stood up.
12:05Elise,
12:06I...
12:07I let out a self-mocking laugh and murmured,
12:10Go.
12:11Wait for me.
12:12I'll go check on them.
12:14Then come right back to take care of you.
12:15Watching his retreating figure,
12:17I smiled bitterly.
12:19You're a liar.
12:20Kyren.
12:21You won't be coming back.
12:23Sure enough,
12:24he never returned that night.
12:26I was discharged the next day,
12:27and it was pouring rain outside.
12:29I packed my belongings,
12:31and stood at the hospital entrance,
12:33watching Kieran's carriage slowly approach.
12:36As soon as I opened the carriage door,
12:37I saw Cecilia holding Tyra in the passenger seat.
12:41Kieran.
12:42Cecilia saw me,
12:43and immediately shrank closer to him.
12:45I...
12:47I haven't recovered from the shock yet.
12:49She covered her lower abdomen,
12:50her voice trembling.
12:52She can hurt me if she wants,
12:53but she can't hurt Tyra.
12:55Can you...
12:57give me a little more time?
12:59Please don't make me ride in the same carriage with her for now.
13:01I froze,
13:03as I stared at the seat that used to belong to me.
13:06Kieran was silent for a long time,
13:08then finally pushed his door open,
13:09and handed me a large umbrella.
13:11Elise,
13:12wait here for a while.
13:13I'll take Cecilia home first,
13:15and come right back to pick you up.
13:17With that,
13:18he closed the window,
13:19and the black carriage sped away.
13:21I stood there motionless,
13:23watching the carriage carrying the family of three disappear at the end of the road.
13:26I closed my eyes,
13:28feeling like there was a huge hole in my chest that could never be filled.
13:31with cold wind rushing through it.
13:33I waited for a long time,
13:35until the rain grew heavier,
13:36and the sky turned completely dark.
13:39Kieran had promised to come back for me,
13:40but he never did.
13:41My communication crystal had lost its glow,
13:44and I called out to him repeatedly through our mind link.
13:47Yet,
13:47there was only blocked silence on the other end.
13:50Seeing the sky grow darker with no sign of the storm letting up,
13:53I had no choice but to open the heavy umbrella and walk home.
13:56The fierce wind nearly snapped the umbrella frame,
13:59as I stumbled forward.
14:01Suddenly,
14:02my foot slipped,
14:03and I fell hard into a muddy puddle.
14:05The umbrella cracked with a sharp sound,
14:07and rain instantly soaked through my entire body.
14:10By the time I finally made it home in my messy state,
14:13it was already deep into the night.
14:15As I stood dripping wet in the entryway,
14:17I heard Cecilia's tearful voice coming from the living room.
14:21Her voice was soft and trembling.
14:51Kieran,
14:52blood in my body had run cold.
14:54In the living room, I could not see his expression, only his tense back.
14:59After a long silence, I watched Kieran's left hand slowly rise,
15:03his fingertips parting Cecilia's clothing, as his right hand slid over her pale skin.
15:08Then, right before my eyes, he lowered his head and pressed his lips against that softness.
15:13I was struck motionless, like lightning had hit me directly.
15:17Time seemed to stretch endlessly,
15:19each second feeling like a knife stabbing into my eyes and carving into my soul.
15:24I watched helplessly as Kieran leaned down.
15:27I watched as his lips touched Cecilia's chest,
15:30and I certainly watched as he sucked gently,
15:33over and over again.
15:35Cecilia let out a satisfied moan,
15:37threading her fingers through his hair.
15:39This side needs attention too.
15:41Kieran frowned slightly.
15:43But that side isn't blocked, is it?
15:44Cecilia did not answer with words.
15:47Instead, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed his face against her.
15:51After a moment of silence, he lowered his head again.
15:53I could not watch anymore, and bolted into the rain.
15:56The storm poured down on me, but I felt no cold.
16:00My mind was filled with memories of our first time together.
16:04How careful Kieran had been,
16:05how he had treasured me,
16:07and how he had whispered in my ear with that husky voice.
16:10Elise, you're my first.
16:12And you'll be my last.
16:14Now, those same lips were on another woman.
16:16My heart ached, and it hurt worse than the lashes.
16:19I bent over and crouched in the rain until my legs went numb,
16:22waiting until the mansion's lights finally went out
16:25before stumbling back like a lost soul
16:28and collapsing in an empty room.
16:30The fever hit hard and fast in the middle of the night.
16:34Half conscious, I heard Kieran's deep, gentle voice from the master bedroom.
16:38He was humming an old werewolf lullaby,
16:40one used to soothe their young.
16:42Of course, he was doing prenatal bonding with the pup in Cecilia's belly,
16:46using a method reserved only for the closest of kin.
16:50Just like he had once promised me, saying,
16:52When we have our pup, I'll sing our ancestors' songs to help him sleep every...
16:57I did not know how long had passed
16:59before I heard someone calling me.
17:01Elise!
17:03Elise!
17:04I struggled to open my eyes
17:06and saw Kieran sitting by the bed with a bowl of medicine.
17:09How did you get this sick?
17:11He touched my forehead with the same gentle care as before.
17:14However, when he got close,
17:16all I could see was what I had witnessed in that bedroom.
17:19I turned away, refusing his touch.
17:23Elise, I'll leave the medicine and water here.
17:25He paused, his voice strained.
17:28Cecilia is sick and carrying my pup.
17:30Plus, she has Tyra to care for,
17:32so she'll be staying in our house for now.
17:35The master bedroom will be theirs for the time being.
17:38You'll stay in this room for the next few days and shouldn't leave,
17:41in case they catch something from you.
17:43I'll have the door locked from the outside,
17:44and Brad will bring you food and medicine.
17:47Without waiting for my response,
17:49Kieran practically fled the room to go care for Cecilia and Tyra.
17:52The lock clicked shut, and my tears fell instantly.
17:56How ridiculous.
17:58I had once been the treasure he held in the palm of his hand,
18:01but now I had become nothing but a danger that needed to be locked away.
18:06Maybe it was Cecilia's doing,
18:07but over the next few days,
18:09no one brought me water or food on schedule.
18:11My fever would not break,
18:13leaving me dizzy and lightheaded,
18:15while I constantly heard laughter and joy from outside.
18:18From the living room came the sound of a familiar, magical projection,
18:22playing one Kieran used to watch with me, wrapped in his arms.
18:26Cecilia's soft voice drifted through the door,
18:29sweet and intimate.
18:30This scene always makes me cry.
18:33Hold me tighter, just like this.
18:35Kieran chuckled warmly.
18:37All right, come here.
18:39You're such a baby.
18:41They shared candlelit dinners in the living room,
18:43just like the surprises he used to cook for me every month.
18:46The clink of wine glasses and their quiet laughter carried clearly to my room.
18:51Later that night,
18:52their voices turned softer, more tender,
18:54as they talked about the future.
18:56It's a boy I want to name him Fenlaw.
18:58Strong, just like his father.
19:01What do you think?
19:01Fenlaw sounds perfect.
19:03And if it's a girl?
19:05Serafina.
19:05She'll be as beautiful as you.
19:07I curled up on the bed, biting the blanket hard,
19:10refusing to let myself cry out loud.
19:12After three full days of fever, I finally recovered.
19:16The day I walked out of my room
19:18happened to be Tyrell's official pack recognition ceremony,
19:21the Moonlight Ritual.
19:22The ceremony was held at the pack's sacred ground,
19:26a moonlit grove surrounded by ancient oak trees.
19:29A bonfire blazed bright while the scent of roasted venison filled the air,
19:33and the werewolves drank honey mead as the atmosphere grew festive.
19:38Lucian and several elders beamed with joy
19:40as they held the swaddled Tyra,
19:42while she received blessings from the pack members.
19:45Exquisite jewellery and precious toys were piled high like a small mountain.
19:49Ciaran, this is for Cecilia.
19:52Lucian smiled as he handed over a wooden box.
19:55Inside was a ring set with an enormous milky white gem
19:58that seemed to pulse with moonlight.
20:00It was the tear of the moon goddess.
20:03She has given the wolf family a healthy bloodline!
20:08Ciaran slipped the ring onto Cecilia's finger and whispered gently.
20:11You've done so well.
20:13Cecilia blushed and leaned into his arms,
20:15and the family of three looked blissfully happy.
20:18The guests circled Tyra, praising her endlessly.
20:21Tyra's cry is so strong!
20:23She'll definitely be a powerful warrior.
20:25Her eyes are like Cecilia's, with the colour of moonlight.
20:28What a union of powerful bloodlines!
20:30Long live the Alpha, Chiron and Miss Donati!
20:33I stood in the corner watching it all.
20:35My nails dug deep into my palms, but I felt no pain.
20:38I didn't expect that it would be to pose for a portrait.
20:41Cecilia suddenly walked toward me with a wine glass, her smile sweet.
20:45The artist carefully prepared his magical recording crystal.
20:49Miss George, Mrs. Donati, please stand a little closer.
20:51Cecilia looked unbothered, though.
20:53She directly pulled me towards the artist's easel.
20:56Don't worry, Miss George, this magical recording crystal won't harm you.
21:00It will just record your current state.
21:02Look how good Ciaran is to me now.
21:05Every night he stays with me,
21:07wrapping me in his Alpha aura until I sleep.
21:10I closed my eyes wearily, not wanting to listen or argue.
21:14We are ready.
21:14Just wishing it to end quickly.
21:16The moment the magical recording crystal clicked and captured the image,
21:19the massive totem pole behind us,
21:22a symbol of the pack's history,
21:23gave a sharp crack.
21:25Watch out!
