Short filmTranscript
00:05I was carrying life. A miracle, after the war wounds that had stolen my hope of ever bearing young.
00:12It was at today's banquet and celebration for the 7th anniversary of my marriage with Alpha Adrian.
00:177 years as Luna of the Moonhowler pack. 7 years since I stopped being Princess Rosalina of the
00:23Silvermoon bloodline. I held the sacred leaf blessed by the moonbloom tree, ready to tell
00:28Adrian, my mate, my husband, that we would finally have family. True blood kin. After my entire
00:34lineage had sacrificed themselves 7 years ago to protect the divine moonbloom tree during the
00:39great pack wars. Adrian's beta, Lorenzo, laughed in Munholler dialect. Alpha, having the Silvermoon
00:46princess wasn't enough? Now you've got Bianca too? How's it feel owning the younger sister after the
00:53Luna Rosalina? Adrian's scorn vibrated through my chest. Eyes crept down my spine. He answered
00:59in the same tongue, thinking me deaf to their words. Bianca? Like mother, like daughter.
01:07Well always plays well in the bed. He pulled me closer, eyes drowning in devotion, while his
01:12lips curved with amusement. Careful, Lorenzo. If my Luna heard you, she'd be heartbroken.
01:17Lorenzo's smile turned knowing. After all, Luna comes from the heroic Silvermoon pack that
01:23sacrificed everything to save the moonbloom tree and broke peace during the wars. Without her status
01:29and your marriage to her, your brother Norman might have taken your position. You had to give
01:35Luna Rosalina some respect. Meanwhile, Bianca's just the bastard daughter Luna pitied enough to bring
01:42here. The hand at my waist went still. The air froze. Other warriors pulled Lorenzo away, laughing
01:48nervously. Alpha Adrian, forgive him. He's drunk. Everyone knows you treasure Luna above all. We'll
01:56take him. The warmth in my blood crystallized into winter. So that's what my family's extinction
02:02meant to them. A shiny trophy. A bargaining chip for inheritance rights. They didn't know. They didn't
02:09know that Silvermoon bloodline carried the moon goddess's legacy so that every wolf tongue became
02:14clear as glass when I touched the moonbloom leaf. I forced my face into blank serenity, the smile I
02:19always wore, while my fingers whitened around the sacred moonbloom leaf. I didn't confront them.
02:26Instead, I sent word through the leaf to the moonbloom altar. Told them I, the last of the Silvermoon
02:32line, would finally accept their invitation to serve as priestess to serve the sacred moonbloom tree.
02:37I am gone. He tightened his grip on my waist, tender as ever. Darling, you look pale. Are you
02:46unwell? Looking into those fathomless green eyes, I felt only revulsion. One moment mocking my half
02:52sister's eagerness, the next playing the devoted husband. How long could he keep this performance
02:58running? Nothing. Just curious. What were you discussing? Adrian paused. But after just a moment,
03:06he pinched my cheek with easy affection, chuckling. Territory disputes with the whispers. I didn't want
03:12to trouble you, which might draw you to the old memories seven years ago. So we used moonhower tongue.
03:18Idiot. He had no idea what moon goddess heritage could do. I pushed him away, feigning distant grief.
03:26I need air. I didn't wait for his response. I walked to the terrace, passing envious glances from other
03:33alpha's mates. Look at our moonhowers, Luna. So blessed. Moon goddess descendant, last princess of
03:39silver moon. Even after seven years, alpha Adrian throws her these grand celebrations every year.
03:46Such fortune. I'd kill for that position. Once, those words would have made me feel lucky.
03:52I thought I'd been given to the best mate in the world when my dying mother entrusted me to him
03:57with
03:57her dying breath. Now, the irony cut like frozen glass. No one knew. No one ever suspected that this
04:03man who swore undying love saw me as nothing but polished chess for his heritage game. That behind
04:09closed doors, he betrayed me to deepest point. The moon bloom leaf glowed, interrupting my thoughts.
04:15Rosalada, blessed be the tree. You finally accepted. Seven years ago, when you chose that Adrian over
04:24priesthood, I mourned the waste. Come quickly. You can say goodbye to your family these next few
04:30days. Ah, so sorry. Anyway, no take backs. I'll send transport immediately. Agreed.
04:41I kept my voice light so she wouldn't feel my sorrow, but my knuckles had gone bloodless around the leaf.
04:47Seven years ago, my pack had summoned the tree's power to end the wars, paying with their lives.
04:53My mother, dying, entrusted me to Adrian. Then, I abandoned my path to priesthood to become his
04:59Luna. For seven years, he was my only family. My only family, if you didn't count the half-sister
05:06I'd brought here out of Mercy when her house fell. The very same woman who had already spreading
05:10herself across my husband's bed. Now, neither of them would be family anymore. Hi, priestess. I won't
05:16change my mind. Send someone now, and use your power to erase every trace of from this moment forward.
05:23Why? Once erased, Rosalina Silvermoon ceases to exist entirely. You'll abandon every bond to your
05:29pack. Even the link to Adrian? He already betrayed me. We have no link left.
05:33Once I gave up my path to be the Moonbloom Priestess, a birthright gifted by the Moonbloom
05:38tree due to the maternal bloodline descended from the Moon Goddess buys, and I devoted myself to
05:43Adrian after losing everything and received nothing. He swore to your mother, dust returns to dust. The
05:50Moonbloom calls you home. I, High Priestess Otto, decree by the tree's authority. Rosalina Silvermoon
05:57is claimed by the divine Moonbloom Alton. No wolf magic shall find her. Relief flooded me. With the
06:04priestess' help, I could escape. Adrian would never track me. Child, you choose this without regret?
06:10Thank you, High Priestess. From this day, Luna Rosalina is dead. Once betrayed, never forgiven.
06:16Suddenly, the familiar male voice came behind me. Darling, what are you saying about betray and
06:22forgive? I turned to see Adrian's emerald eyes sharpened with suspicion. I summoned my practiced
06:28gentle smile. Oh, we were chatting over a northern pack story where the alpha betrayed his Luna.
06:33Now she's severing their mate bond and reclaiming territory from the peace treaty.
06:39See, if he wanted to perform, I'd perform with him. His gaze raked my face, hunting for the
06:45micro-expressions that betray wolf emotion. Finding nothing, his shoulders loosened. His hands slid to
06:51my waist and a kiss pressed to my temple. What a fool. Betraying one's Luna is betraying one's pack.
06:59Betraying the treaty itself. My queen, that would never happen to us moonhowers.
07:04What if it did? I looked into those bottomless eyes and smiled thinly.
07:10Rosalina, no ifs. Adrian cut me off. I, Adrian Moonhowler, swear by pack honor and wolf spirit.
07:18I will never betray you. I haven't forgotten your pack sacrifice and how your mothers trust.
07:24Of course. Just hypothetical. He went quiet, then rubbed his rough jaw against my cheek.
07:30Ridiculous. Entangled with my half-sister on the one hand while showing me this faithful love at the
07:35other. If I betray you, curse me that I never find you through all eternity. Curse me that my wolf
07:43spirit ache for you forever. Curse me that moonbloom abandoned my blood. You know this,
07:49Rosalina. You're my mate, my other half. Without you, my wolf would run death towards the sun.
07:56But if you ever try to leave me, I will hunt you down and bring you back to me,
08:01no matter where you go. I didn't answer, just simply stepping from his arms.
08:07The highest altar's escort would arrive soon. I was leaving this embrace I'd once craved.
08:13Adrian, the punishment you just made will find you soon enough.
08:17He gestured his hand. Alpha, everything's ready.
08:20Adrian nodded, a mysterious smile curving his lips. He took my hand to the terrace edge.
08:26Suddenly, he covered my eyes, whispering.
08:29Darling, I have something special for you. Five, four, three.
08:37When he removed his hand, the sight stole my breath. Hundreds of moon moths drawn by the tree's
08:42light danced overhead, their silver glow forming my name. Rosalina.
08:46Adrian embraced me from behind, voice honey sweet.
08:49Seven years married, and every day feels like the first. Seven years ago, your family summoned the
08:55tree to end the wars. Your mother gave you to me with her last breath. That was the most precious
08:59duty of my life. Looking at my name burning in the night sky, I felt a world away. Seven years,
09:05from innocent silver moon princess to moon haller luna. It changed enough to turn love to betrayal,
09:11vows to lies. Enough to understand that his duty and gratitude had become chains crushing whatever
09:16remained true. Adrian turned me to face him, emerald eyes intent enough to melt stone.
09:20Seven years, and I still want to give you everything. Your family's sacrifice, I will never forget.
09:28He leaned down to kiss me. The instant before our lips met, the leaf at his waist vibrated.
09:34Irritation flashed across his face, that expression I knew so well. Good. Saved me the trouble of
09:41dodging.
09:43Dammit. I gave clear orders no interruptions tonight. Let's see which idiot defies their alpha.
09:48But when he saw the imprint on the leaf, his color changed. I glimpsed it. Bianca's unique
09:54signature. I knew. It was her. Adrian cleared his throat, tucking the leaf away, fingers flying across
10:01its surface. I watched clearly as panic flickered in his eyes, followed by naked hunger. Sure enough,
10:08he turned to me with perfectly calibrated regret. What is it? I asked casually, nails biting my palm.
10:15The truth screamed itself, yet some stupid part of me hoped, this time, he'd choose me.
10:20Whisper pack emergency. Border conflict. Darling, I have to step away.
10:27Now? I'm sorry. I know tonight matters, but this is urgent. You understand. Border stability maintains
10:34the peace treaty. He kissed my forehead. Rest. I'll return soon. I understand. Pack comes first.
10:45I nodded, playing the docile Luna. Relief washed over him. He hugged me hurriedly, then strode away.
10:51I stood on the terrace, watching him leave. My wolf hauled in agony inside me. I silenced her.
10:58Since he had urgent business, I'd see exactly how urgent. I followed Adrian to an estate across town.
11:05Bianca wore a tight red dress, 10 centimeter heels, spring fever wild. She threw herself into Adrian's arms.
11:12Darling, that moon moth display. I was so jealous. Big sister always gets the best.
11:19Just like she got Silvermoon's pure bloodline. Adrian patted her back, indulgent.
11:25Greedy little she-wolf. Wasn't your birthday celebration enough? Like your mother greedy enough
11:32to climb from servant into your father's bed?
11:35I promised. Behave. Keep our secret from Rosalina and you'll have power and status too.
11:41Her family's extinct, just empty reputation now. But it's only been seven years since their sacrifice.
11:48I have my duty to perform and show some gratitude.
11:50The words drove through my heart like a thousand claws.
11:53I remembered that night, Adrian claimed he was handling pack traders colluding with Whisper Pack.
11:59Gone all night.
12:00I'd stayed awake terrified, my wolf pacing endlessly.
12:03So this was the trouble he'd been handling. In bed. The real traitor was my husband, tangled with
12:10my half-sister. And I, his Luna, was the fool left in darkness.
12:15I just envies her, my alpha. Why is she born princess while I'm bastard born? Why does her dead
12:22family still outrank me?
12:23There, there. What can I do? You're my treasure. Tonight, I have a surprise.
12:30Bianca whispered in his ear, then tugged his tie. Adrian's eyes blackened with desire.
12:36His wolf surfaced in his gaze.
12:39What are we waiting for? Tell me.
12:42Come upstairs and unwrap your gift yourself.
12:46In broad evening light, Adrian swept her up and strode inside.
12:50Bianca's moans drowned in his devouring kiss.
12:53The elevator doors closed, carrying them to the penthouse suite.
12:56I stood in the dark, watching them vanish. Seven years as mates. Worthless to him.
13:03His gratitude and duty, so cheap. Though I'd already known, seeing it still carved me hollow.
13:09Tears finally broke free. I remembered our first year.
13:14Adrian had sworn by pack honor, every anniversary. He'd stay by my side.
13:19Yet Bianca's single message made him abandon that sacred vow.
13:22I breathed deep, forcing down the storm, calming my wolf with pure willpower.
13:27Soon the altar escort would come. I'd escape.
13:30I returned to the estate, locking myself into a guest room.
13:34My wolf wept. Perhaps some hours later, I heard Adrian return.
13:39Rosalina? My Luna? Rosalina!
13:42He shouted through the master bedroom, voice rising to panic.
13:46Dammit! Where is she?
13:49Luna? Luna!
13:51Useless idiots! You lost the Luna?
13:53Alpha, we already searched the master room. Luna might have gone out.
13:56Find her! Right now!
13:59Footsteps approached.
14:00He searched room by room, his wolf's panic saturating the air.
14:05When he opened the guest room door, I pretended to just wake.
14:09Seeing me, his rage vanished.
14:11My goddess, Rosalina, you terrified me.
14:14You came back without telling me?
14:16Do you know my wolf nearly tore the estate apart?
14:19I couldn't sleep, so changed a room.
14:22What's wrong?
14:23Nothing. Just...
14:25Losing you, I was afraid.
14:27He kissed my hair, voice still trembling with residual fear.
14:31If you truly cared, you wouldn't touch other women.
14:34Wouldn't touch my half-sister.
14:36I felt unwell.
14:38Came back early.
14:40Forgot to tell you.
14:42Soaked in his lies long enough, I could manufacture my own ones effortlessly now.
14:47Adrian's face flooded with relief.
14:49He lay beside me, locking me against him like precious treasure.
14:53Don't do that again.
14:54Losing you would drive me mad.
14:56My wolf would go feral.
14:58You know I'd do anything for you.
15:01Your family's sacrifice.
15:03And your mother chose me.
15:04I haven't forgotten.
15:06I closed my eyes, and he couldn't see the cold smile shown on my lips.
15:11Next morning, I prepared an elegant gift box.
15:14Inside, the Munheller royal badge symbolizing my Luna status,
15:18and the mate bond severance contract I drafted and signed through the night.
15:22Adrian, your gift for our seventh anniversary.
15:24He took it, eyes bright with delight and about to open it.
15:28No. Wait two days.
15:30It will be meaningful then.
15:31He nodded obediently, placing the box carefully in his safe.
15:36I'll love it.
15:36Yes, you would love it then.
15:38In two days, I'd vanish completely.
15:41And this gift would tell him everything.
15:43I was in search of an unsuspicious excuse to avoid his energetic kiss when the doorbell rang and saved me
15:48from brainstorming.
15:49So energetic after his affectionate energy with another woman.
15:52The door opened.
15:54Speak of the devil.
15:55Here she would come.
15:56At the door stood Bianca, the bastard daughter of my father and the secret mistress of my husband,
16:01with her face streaked with tears, devastatingly fragile.
16:05And, in front of my eyes, she faintly fell her body into Adrian's arms.
16:09As if I never existed there.
16:12Adrian's face darkened instantly.
16:14He seized Bianca's wrist, dragging her to the back garden.
16:17Are you deaf to my warning?
16:19I warned you again.
16:20Never show yourself here.
16:22If your sister suspects anything, you know the consequences.
16:25My wolf will tear you apart.
16:27Don't forget.
16:28You and your mother are Silvermoon parasites.
16:31From my view upstairs, I watched everything clearly.
16:35Have you lost your mind?
16:36Want to drag all Moonhowers down?
16:39If the Peace Council learns we're messing with Silvermoor's last princess, do you know what happens?
16:44Adrian moved like enraged beast.
16:46Wolf flickering in his eyes as he shoved her.
16:48Bianca took out a diagnosis report from the Moongloom physician.
16:52Even from distance, I caught her words.
16:54I know I shouldn't come.
16:56But I'm pregnant.
16:58The physician said last night was too dangerous.
17:02I'm nine weeks.
17:03High risk now.
17:05Adrian, I didn't want to trouble you, but I'm afraid.
17:08This is your first heir.
17:10Moonhower bloodline's future.
17:12The next alpha.
17:13Do you want your Moonhower blood to die out completely?
17:16My sister cannot produce the heir.
17:19You know after the Great War's trauma.
17:21Lightning struck me to pieces.
17:23My chest hollowed, carved out, bleeding.
17:26Bianca, also carrying Pak Young?
17:28I remembered early talks about bloodlines.
17:31During the Great Clan War seven years ago.
17:35Your body was weakened.
17:37Pregnancy would endanger your life.
17:40I hope for a love between partners that is pure.
17:43I'd believed his devotion, but trying so hard directly only to give him a surprise with my pregnancy.
17:49However, I'd never imagine another pregnancy would also surprise me.
17:53Now I understood.
17:55He could casually breed with other women.
17:57He'd never mind my incapacably to produce children just because he didn't mind me that much as he pretended to
18:02be.
18:03Hearing pregnant, Adrian froze.
18:05He stared at Bianca's belly.
18:07Confused.
18:08He'd always been careful.
18:10How could?
18:11Nine weeks?
18:12Critical stage.
18:14Must be careful.
18:15The pup.
18:17Our moon howler air cannot be endangered.
18:19Wait in the car.
18:21I'll arrange our best moon bloom physician for full examination.
18:24Bianca's tears turned to smiles.
18:26She rose on her toes to kiss him.
18:28Adrian's eyes darkened, but he turned slightly away.
18:31This is moon howler arranged.
18:33Careful besides.
18:34Your priority is protecting the pup.
18:36Don't alert the peace council.
18:38Don't provoke my wolf.
18:40He grinned roguishly, turning toward the villa.
18:43I retreated to my room, resuming my seat at the dressing table.
18:47Nine weeks.
18:48The first night I noticed him missing.
18:50I touched my own flat belly.
18:52Guilt overwhelming.
18:54I'm sorry, little one.
18:56Your mother was useless.
18:57Couldn't give you a happy family.
18:59Couldn't give you an alpha father who'd love us both.
19:02Soon, Adrian entered.
19:04Rosalina, I must leave and handle something.
19:07The whispers, you know.
19:09Possibly targeting our border territory.
19:11I must deal with this personally.
19:13Stay at the estate and wait for me.
19:15I nodded calmly.
19:16Seeing my normal expression, he relaxed.
19:19Kissed my forehead.
19:20Left.
19:21His performance remained flawless, switching between the cheating man and devoted husband
19:25Alpha seamlessly.
19:26I watched him disappear, then checked the wall calendar.
19:30This might be our final meeting.
19:32That afternoon, the moon bloom leaf blazed unexpectedly.
19:35On screen, a tree physician's diagnosis.
19:38A tiny wolf pup curled in a womb.
19:40Then another scene, Adrian gently cupping Bianca's slightly rounded belly, bowing to kiss it with
19:45reverence.
19:45That tenderness on his face.
19:47I'd never seen it.
19:48The alpha cherishing his unborn heir.
19:50The senders left no signatures.
19:53Yet I know it was Bianca.
19:55Perhaps carrying the alpha's heir gave my half-sister courage to challenge the true Luna.
19:59She didn't know.
20:00None of it touched me anymore.
20:02My heart was a dead, silent sea.
20:05My wolf had gone quiet.
20:06Love dead inside.
20:08Only the thought of escape remained.
20:10Unsurprisingly, the next two days, silence from Adrian.
20:14I used the time erasing every trace from the estate.
20:17Silvermoon heirlooms went to the sanctum as donations.
20:20Personal belongings burned.
20:22Only essentials packed.
20:24Departure day was a rainy day.
20:26I woke before dawn, suitcase ready, waiting for the divine moon bloom altar's transport.
20:31About to confirm pick-up time with the high priestess, the unknown contact sent again.
20:36Sister, physician says it's a boy.
20:38I'm carrying Moonhawker's heir.
20:41Adrian says he'll give me and the child status.
20:43You useless woman who can't bear heirs, get out of Moonhawker estate yourself.
20:47Don't forget, your silvermoon family's dead.
20:50No one supports you.
20:51Congratulations.
20:52Your dream comes true soon.
20:54The moment I sent it, transport arrived.
20:57With resolve, I reached Moonhawker's tree altar.
21:00Waiting for the teleportation circle to activate.
21:03Then, light flared from the circle.
21:05Before the altar it stood a row of Moonhawker royal guard.
21:09Seven years ago, Adrian and I had bonded here.
21:12Through rain, Adrian emerged from inside the altar house with a black umbrella, other hand gripping Bianca's.
21:18She wore white maternity dress, blinding in the downpour.
21:21They'd just finished blessing the unborn pup.
21:23As Adrian shielded Bianca with the umbrella, wind tore the rain curtain.
21:28He looked up, directly at me.
21:31Across the raindrops, at where our vows were witnessed and his lies were shown, our eyes met.
21:36Shock.
21:37Confusion.
21:38Terror in his gaze.
21:39His wolf's agony reached me even from here.
21:42His lips moved soundlessly, my name.
21:45I looked away.
21:46Severed our final connection.
21:48The moonbloom leaf vibrated endlessly, Adrian displayed.
21:52I disabled transmission entirely.
21:54Having accepted the high priestess maximum protection, I must sever all past completely.
21:59The car passed familiar streets, every inch Moonhawler territory, every memory with Adrian.
22:04Now, nothing to do with me.
22:06I removed the moonbloom leaf, threw it from the window.
22:09Damn it!
22:11Tracker sent!
22:13Simultaneously, Adrian shoved through crowds, ignoring Bianca's cry, lunging toward where the car had stood,
22:19but it had merged into traffic, vanished, leaving only exhaust and rain-wet pavement.
22:23Adrian, what is it?
22:25Bianca clutched his sleeve.
22:27What happened?
22:28Nothing.
22:29Let's go.
22:30Returned to the car, but his wolf howled.
22:33Unease accumulated like stones.
22:35Rosalina, why there?
22:37Should be at the Moonhawler estate.
22:38And that look, that look terrified him.
22:41The look of a wolf of love already gone.
22:43At the safe house, Adrian settled Bianca upstairs.
22:46Rest here, little she-wolf.
22:48Tomorrow, the tree physician for thorough examination.
22:51Okay, but stay with me.
22:53I have business.
22:55Back soon.
22:57His private leaf rang.
22:58Alpha Adrian, bad news.
23:01Luna, Luna Rosalina, she's gone.
23:03Her scent fading from the house.
23:05Adrian went bloodless.
23:08Gone how?
23:09Explain!
23:10Luna's room's empty personal items vanished.
23:13Worse.
23:14The Silvermoon heirlooms from her safe.
23:17Important documents.
23:18Even the Silvermoon family badge.
23:20All gone.
23:21We searched the entire estate.
23:23Not a trace of Luna's scent remains.
23:26As if...
23:28As if she never existed here.
23:30The mate bond, Alpha.
23:32Can you still feel it?
23:33The leaf slipped from Adrian's hand, crashing down.
23:37Ice-cold terror consumed him.
23:39He clutched his chest.
23:40Was the bond still beating or growing fainter?
23:43Hearing commotion, Bianca descended.
23:45Adrian, you look terrible.
23:46What happened?
23:47He turned mechanically.
23:49Wolf flickering with suppressed rage.
23:52Stewart says Rosalina's gone.
23:54I must find her.
23:56Bianca's heart surged with joy.
23:57Her provocation this morning had worked.
24:00That high Luna Rosalina had finally fallen from her throne.
24:03Watching Adrian's departing back, she forced down her smile, feigning concern to nearby warriors.
24:08Let's return and wait.
24:10But inside, she hoped more than anyone that Adrian would never find me.
24:14Adrian sent transmission after transmission.
24:17Only cold silence answered.
24:19The imprint you seek is disabled or temporarily unalable.
24:23Rain soaked his suit.
24:25He didn't care.
24:26After dozens of failures, he floored the accelerator, armored SUV bullet streaking through streets.
24:32The steward trembled to meet him.
24:34Alpha, why return?
24:36Adrian took stairs two at a time, bursting into the master bedroom.
24:40Everything erased.
24:41My existence scoured from the world.
24:43Empty closet.
24:45Empty vanity.
24:46Air devoid of my presence.
24:48He charged into my study.
24:50Tree texts gone.
24:51Desktop leaf gone.
24:53Everything gone.
24:55Alpha, we've searched everywhere.
24:58Confirmed.
24:59Luna's possessions all gone.
25:02Including the silver moon badge.
25:04Adrian stood frozen, disbelief drowning his eyes.
25:08That badge, her birthright, never abandoned unless.
25:11Alpha, perhaps misunderstanding?
25:14Maybe she left for some unhappiness?
25:16Just temporary?
25:18Bullshit!
25:19Everyone!
25:20Find the Luna now!
25:22I feel the bond weakening!
25:23Two days ago, when he was leaving, she'd seemed normal.
25:27He thought of Bianca's estate visit.
25:30Had something happened?
25:31No.
25:32Impossible!
25:33He'd been careful.
25:35Their conversation in the garden?
25:36No.
25:37Rosalina upstairs resting.
25:39His wolf would have sensed it.
25:41Adrian mobilized moon howler influence across north and south.
25:44Airports, train stations, border checkpoints.
25:47Nothing.
25:47No bank transactions.
25:49No credit imprints.
25:50No scent traces anywhere.
25:52Night passed.
25:53Nothing.
25:54How could she vanish without warning, unless someone shielded her?
25:57A thought struck.
25:59Could Bianca have?
26:00Before finishing, his lieutenant Leonardo entered.
26:03He held a clear bag, shattered moonbloom leaf fragments.
26:07Alpha, we found this outside the pack altar.
26:11Luna's leaf.
26:11Pack's priest says it might be recoverable.
26:14Adrian took it, hands shaking.
26:16Rosalina would never destroy her own things.
26:19Fix this damn thing!
26:20Now!
26:21I want answers!
26:2120 minutes later, the repaired leaf returned.
26:25Screen lit, final transmissions displayed.
26:28First, Bianca's diagnosis photo, tiny wolf pup.
26:31Second, Adrian cupping Bianca's belly, kissing it reverently.
26:35Then, Bianca's arrogant challenge.
26:37Sister, physician says it's a boy.
26:40I'm carrying Moonhanger's heir.
26:42Adrian says he'll give me and the child status.
26:45You useless woman who can't bear heirs, get out of Moonhanger estate yourself.
26:49Don't forget, your Silvermoon family's dead.
26:51No one supports you.
26:53I learned later, that single provocation made Adrian understand everything.
26:57Bianca's messages had driven me away.
26:59His wolf howled in pain and fury.
27:02Volcanic rage erupted from his chest.
27:04My only regret, missing what came next.
27:07Later, through various pack channels, I pieced together that bloody night.
27:11It's said that Adrian drove like madness to Bianca's hidden estate.
27:15His wolf fully controlled him, eyes red.
27:17When Bianca opened the door, Joy filled her face, thinking he'd finally abandoned me, dreaming of becoming next Luna.
27:25Adrian, taking me home?
27:26I'll pack now.
27:28I knew you couldn't abandon us.
27:30The moon bloom blessed us.
27:32The slap cracked across her face before she finished.
27:35Adrian seized her throat.
27:37His face black as hell, killing intent saturating the air.
27:41His wolf's roar echoed in his voice.
27:44Bianca, who gave you courage to tell Rosalina about us?
27:48Bianca clutched her face, stumbling backward, cold sweat drenching her back.
27:53For the first time, she saw death in his eyes.
27:56She knew Adrian's feelings for me ran deep, so she'd stayed docile as secret lover.
28:01But pregnancy swelled her ambition, who didn't want to be legitimate Munhauer Luna.
28:05She'd gambled, sent that provocation, knowing I'd leave upon learning truth.
28:10Then everything would be hers.
28:12But she never expected Adrian to see those messages.
28:15Not stupid enough to confess now, she shook her head.
28:18Adrian, what are you saying?
28:19I don't understand.
28:21I only want to be with you.
28:23Never competed with sister for position.
28:25Would never send such messages.
28:27The moon bloom witnesses my truth.
28:30I don't know what you're talking about.
28:32Truth, truth that you sent her what?
28:33Truth that you arrogantly announced your pregnancy?
28:35Without seeing those messages, he might have believed her.
28:39Now, the glaring text repeated in his mind, her lies only deepening the killing intent.
28:44He threw the leaf at her feet.
28:46Screen displayed her transmissions.
28:49Facing iron evidence, Bianca couldn't deny.
28:52Choking back sobs, she grabbed his arm, desperate.
28:55I know I shouldn't, but I couldn't bear our pup growing up bastard-born.
28:59Could you watch your bloodline, Royal Moonhauer Blood Air being gossip around?
29:03My bloodline to be gossiped?
29:05No.
29:06Bastard?
29:07He's worse than bast-
29:08I found what's between you and Norman.
29:10My wolf smells lies, Bianca.
29:12I warned you, Luna's position belongs to Rosalina always.
29:15You don't deserve it.
29:16You and your mother, silver moon parasites clinging to pure bloodlines.
29:21I kept you for novelty.
29:22How dare you compare to Rosalia?
29:24To the one in my heart.
29:26Her family sacrificed ending wars.
29:29Your mother's just a bed-climbing servant.
29:32If you'd stayed my little she-wolf, after birth I'd have provided for you both.
29:37But you broke my rules.
29:38Don't blame my cruelty.
29:41Adrian pulled a document from his pocket, Tree Bloodline Paternity Test.
29:45Seeing the paper, Bianca went paper-white, collapsing, stammering.
29:49How?
29:52Adrian, I can explain.
29:55Explain how you passed some bastard as my heir.
29:57You betrayed me, entangling with my bastard brother and having this bastard pup.
30:02My bloodline?
30:03You and your mother?
30:05Both cheaters.
30:06No, the pup is yours.
30:07The test is wrong.
30:09The moon bloom cursed it.
30:10Wrong?
30:11I had three different tree physicians.
30:14Test.
30:15Same result.
30:17Know what's most laughical?
30:19He crouched, finger under her chin.
30:22I lost the only woman I ever cared about.
30:24My mate.
30:25My other half.
30:26For a bastard not even mine.
30:28For your cheap lies like your mother's.
30:30Bianca knew argument was useless.
30:33Despair filled her eyes, and the total matters.
30:36Adrian, you're the fool.
30:38Yes, the pup isn't yours.
30:40But that was enough to make Rosalina believe, wasn't it?
30:45She's gone.
30:46It wasn't me who drove her away.
30:48It was you.
30:49You'll never find her.
30:50She'll never forgive you.
30:52The bond is broken.
30:53Her family's entrustment.
30:54You'll never repay it.
30:56Hearing gone, Adrian's eyes renoned, Wolf fully manifesting.
31:00You lie!
31:02Rosalaya will return.
31:04I'll apologize.
31:05She'll forgive me.
31:06The bond will heal.
31:07He roared toward the door.
31:09Mike, enter!
31:11A scarred middle-aged man entered, his wolf dark and vicious.
31:14Moon Howler's most ruthless enforcer.
31:17Alpha, dispose of her.
31:18And the bastard in her belly.
31:21Clean.
31:22I want no more news of them, ever.
31:25Erase their scent from existence, as if they never existed.
31:30Bianca never imagined such ruthlessness.
31:32Her pleas turned increasingly frantic and sharp.
31:35But Adrian never looked at her again.
31:38His wolf had already judged her unworthy of attention.
31:42Having disposed of the cheating woman, Adrian threw all energy into finding me.
31:47But whether through peace council contacts or activating the collaboration of North and South's networks, no trace.
31:52Even his supernatural council connections found no records.
31:56As if I never existed, the mate bond grew faint, distant.
32:04Adrian's fists smashed the table, shattering it.
32:07His wolf howled in defeat.
32:09A living wolf can't vanish!
32:11A mate can't evaporate!
32:14Then Adrian remembered Anniversary Night.
32:17My question?
32:18His vow.
32:19If I betray you, curse me that I never find you through all eternity.
32:24Curse me that my wolf spirit ache for you forever.
32:28Curse me that Moon Bloom abandoned my blood.
32:30Now, his vow became cruel self-fulfillment.
32:34He suddenly remembered the elegant gift box I'd given before leaving.
32:38I told him to open it in two days, the day I vanished.
32:42My sudden disappearance had scattered his wits, he'd forgotten completely.
32:47In desperation, hope flickered.
32:49Perhaps clues to my location inside.
32:52Perhaps just a lesson, waiting somewhere for his repentance.
32:55He carefully retrieved the velvet box, hands trembling, slowly opening.
33:00Inside lay a badge, the Munhauer family badge symbolizing our alliance, representing my Munhauer Luna status.
33:07Beside it, a mate bond severance contract.
33:10My signature prominent at the bottom, the Moon Bloom's blessing, retracted.
33:15In that moment, the bond broken, his final fantasy shattered.
33:20He finally understood, this time, I was determined to leave.
33:24Forever.
33:25I'd rejected the bond, ever and forever.
33:29Overwhelming regret drowned him.
33:31He wanted to strike himself.
33:33Why had he touched that accursed woman?
33:35Just because pack gossip claimed he owed Rosalina his secure inheritance.
33:39Making him eager to show masculine dominance.
33:42Chained to one woman, such alpha life seemed suffocating.
33:46At pack gatherings, other alphas teasing, momentary wavering and finally entanglement with that woman.
33:52But he'd never wanted to abandon me.
33:54In his heart, I was always his only queen, only Luna.
33:58He'd never imagined momentary curiosity would destroy seven years of mating, lose his most precious woman.
34:04Lose his other half.
34:06Munhauer's pack priest Dante entered.
34:09Alpha, found a clue.
34:10What clue?
34:11What clue?
34:11No clue.
34:12Are you provoking your alpha?
34:15Alpha, you found nothing through pack channels.
34:17I searched through Moonbloom Alta's secret arts.
34:19Nothing.
34:19No clue is the only clue.
34:20Following Dante's gaze, they looked toward the south.
34:24The direction of the divine Moonbloom tree, the moon goddess's divine proxy in this world, whose blessings wolves depended upon.
34:32Seven years ago, juvenile wolf transformation sickness had sparked the wars as packs fought for tree power to sustain their
34:38bloodlines.
34:38Yet no pack could violate tree territory, regardless of the great wars.
34:44This was why the silver moon earned respect, dying to summon tree power and end the war.
34:48But for Rosalina, even challenging the moonbloom itself, even sacrificing everything, he would pay any price.
34:55Meanwhile, at the highest sacred altar of the moonbloom tree, I worked relentlessly.
35:00After marrying Adrian, I'd been away from tree maintenance for years, skills grown rusty.
35:06Unwilling to disappoint the high priestess, I stayed and served beneath the tree constantly.
35:12Intensive maintenance consumed all time, leaving no energy for thoughts of that world full of betrayals and lies.
35:18I, together with my fellow priestesses dedicated to the tree completely,
35:22We worked toward keeping the moonbloom vibrant, blessing juvenile wolf's transformations, only pious cooperation, no betrayal or deception.
35:31No dominant struggles for pack hierarchy.
35:34Unconsciously, the year's greatest full moon eve arrived.
35:38Our first maintenance phase finally broke through, the moonbloom radiated unprecedented light.
35:43Everyone rejoiced.
35:45As we prepared celebration, the high priestess voice came through the leaf,
35:49Summoning all core priests to the council chamber to meet an important new patron.
35:53Wearing my daily priestess robe, I entered the chamber.
35:57Never imagined, the face in the center was the one I most wished never to see again.
36:01Adrian Munhauer.
36:03The maid I'd loved, destined partner, then the betrayer, now the wolf king I wanted erased from memory.
36:09The high priestess seated Adrian prominently, introducing this generous patron to everyone.
36:14Only then did I learn, this alpha had donated nearly all Munhauer pack's lunar sacred artifacts
36:20And invested almost his everything in our tree maintenance project,
36:23Solely to gain the altar's access.
36:25Solely to find me.
36:26I forced composure.
36:28Face blank, staring at the screen.
36:31My long silent wolf stirred uneasily.
36:34Mr. Moonhopper has made the largest single donation in our maintenance project's history.
36:40May the tree bless his generality.
36:42The chamber erupted in applause, cheering for this massive resource injection.
36:47His patronage will accelerate the moonbloom's radiance restoration.
36:51Everyone please attend tonight's welcome banquet.
36:54That evening, I had no choice, I attended.
36:58I wore simple white priestess robes, ordinary daily attire for tree service.
37:03Adrian stood at the banquet center, wearing tailored royal robes.
37:06Thinner, hollow-eyed, but those emerald eyes remained sharp as ever.
37:11His wolf radiated unmistakable despair.
37:14Throughout the banquet, I completely ignored his existence, focusing on maintenance discussions
37:19with those around me.
37:20Yet I clearly felt that heavy, burning gaze following me constantly.
37:25I sensed the shadow of our dead bond, trying to reconnect.
37:29After the banquet, I hurried toward the dormitory area, only to be blocked at the corridor corner.
37:34Adrian stood before me, two cautious moonbloom guards behind.
37:38I'd known this moment would come.
37:41I turned, facing those eyes I'd once loved, now loathed, voice ice cold.
37:46What are you doing here?
37:48Rosalina, I finally found you.
37:50Do you know what I sacrificed to find you?
37:52I liquidated moon howler assets.
37:55Searched every pack for lunar sacred artifacts, just to step into this place and find you.
37:59My wolf is dying without you.
38:02The moon bloom no longer answers my prayers.
38:05When you left, why didn't you tell me?
38:07I searched like mad, mobilized all networks across the north and south.
38:11I'm rattles, every pack contact.
38:14I'm no longer Rosalina Moonhauer, nor your Luna.
38:17You have no reason to find me.
38:19The mate bond is severed.
38:21You have Moonhauer's to lead.
38:23Find a new Luna.
38:24One who can bear your heirs.
38:26One who won't remind you of Silvermoon's duty debts.
38:29I know I was wrong.
38:30I shouldn't have touched that cheater.
38:33Bianca and the pup.
38:34I've disposed of them.
38:35They're gone.
38:36Come home, Rosalina, where you belong.
38:39My wolf needs you.
38:40Moonhowlers needs you.
38:42Your family's entrustness I haven't repaid.
38:44Hearing him casually say disposed of my half-sister, ice filled me.
38:48This man's coldness exceeded imagination.
38:51This was the alpha I'd loved.
38:53I even began doubting, seven years married.
38:56Had I ever truly known him?
38:58Adrian, from the moment you started cheating, we ended.
39:02The moon bloom witnessed your betrayal.
39:05I don't know how you found me, but I erased my identity, evaporated from the world.
39:11Isn't that clear enough?
39:13I want nothing more to do with your world.
39:15With Moonhowler's world.
39:18My family's sacrifice shouldn't be your betrayal's bargaining chip.
39:22I responded coldly, turning to leave.
39:25Adrian stood frozen, voice carrying humility I'd never heard, and alpha begging.
39:31But I know I was wrong.
39:32Just that once, I swear by wolf spirit.
39:35Forgive me, I swear.
39:37Besides you, no other she-wolf will share my den.
39:40No other she-wolf will share my territory.
39:42I'll spend my life repaying Silvermoon's entrustness.
39:46Infidelity isn't mistake, it's choice.
39:48And I never tolerate betrayal.
39:50Not once.
39:51In my eyes, you're already dead.
39:54Besides, blood debt now divides us.
39:57However unworthy Biannica was.
39:59She was my half-sister.
40:01You killed her.
40:02I'll never forgive the murderer.
40:04My wolf will never accept you again.
40:06Your debt to my family ends here.
40:09The pup wasn't mine, Rosalita.
40:12Tree paternity test proved it.
40:14I don't want to hear.
40:15It doesn't matter anymore.
40:17Just then, the two altar guards approached.
40:20Sir, this is core maintenance area.
40:22You must leave immediately.
40:23I exhaled relief, turning toward my room.
40:26My wolf fell silent again.
40:29Just as I was closing my door,
40:30a heart-rending cry came from behind,
40:33half-human, half-wolf howl.
40:36Rosalina!
40:37If I hadn't touched her,
40:39if I'd stopped everything in time,
40:41would you have stayed?
40:42Given me another chance?
40:44My steps paused.
40:46I didn't turn back.
40:48Didn't answer.
40:49I closed the door,
40:50shutting out that world of betrayal and lies completely.
40:53After all, in this world,
40:55there are no ifs.
40:57Only choices and consequences.
40:59And I had already found my own path.
41:02Without him.
41:03Without Munhauers.
41:05Without Wolf Bonds.
41:07That night,
41:08I fell asleep smiling,
41:09on the right track I was meant to go for to be
41:11Priestess of the Moon Bloom,
41:13true inheritor of Silvermoon shouldering my identity
41:15as the last moon goddess descendant.
