Short filmTranscript
00:00My boyfriend asked me to French kiss his brother for five minutes as part of a dare.
00:11I agreed, and after dumping him, I accepted his brother's proposal.
00:15I forced myself to step forward, straddling the lap of the man in the bespoke black suit.
00:19My trembling fingers reached up, grabbing his sharp jawline, forcing him to look at me.
00:23Lucian Blackthound, the billionaire heir.
00:25Go ahead, Ash. Make out with my brother for five minutes. Prove you're a team player.
00:28He treated me like property. A pawn to make him look cool.
00:37The moment our tongues brusked, a shover ran through Lucian's massive frame.
00:41Holy shit! Lucian never lets anyone touch him!
00:43He didn't throw the four-eyed charity cake out the window!
00:46His massive hand locked around my waist. His grip tightened, pulling me against his chest.
00:50I couldn't breathe, and he kissed me back.
00:51For five minutes, Lucian consumed me. But then...
00:57Game's over.
00:58I pulled away, my heart hammering against my ribs.
01:02Noah was already back to scrolling on his phone, laughing at some meme.
01:05He didn't care. I scoffed, turning on my feel to sprint out of that suffocating penthouse.
01:11Yo, Noah. Your girl just wrecked your brother. You ain't mad?
01:14Why would I care? It's just a game.
01:17Tears blurred my vision as I ran out into the cold New York night.
01:21Back in my tiny apartment, I locked the door and collapsed against it.
01:25Suddenly, my phone buzzed with an unknown number.
01:27Are you asleep? Five minutes wasn't nearly enough.
01:31The next afternoon, Noah strolled into the dingy campus coffee shop where I worked my double shifts.
01:36Look, I didn't think you'd take it so personally. You're not actually mad, right?
01:41You don't care about me at all, do you?
01:42It was a party dare, Ashley. Don't be so dramatic.
01:47My hands shook as I unlocked my phone. I flipped open the text from the unknown number and shoved the
01:51screen in his face.
01:53He's coming after your girlfriend.
01:54Noah stared at the screen for a second, and then he burst into a laugh.
01:58You? God, Ashley, don't flatter yourself.
02:01Every billionaire heiress in Manhattan has thrown themselves at Lucian, and he hasn't blinked.
02:05You think my brother is losing sleep over a girl who wears oversized hoodies and cracked glasses?
02:08The words hit like a physical punch to the gut.
02:11Is that what I am to you, a joke?
02:12I'm a blackthone. You're a charity cobble student working for tips.
02:16If it weren't for me rescuing you from the freshman year...
02:20I'm on the clock. Get the hell out of my cafe.
02:22Noah sneered, turning around, came through the room by the blunt.
02:25He was the golden boy at university.
02:27Football captain, national champion, the boy who walked up to my quiet corner in the library three years ago.
02:33The golden boy and the nerd, the campus blogs called us.
02:36Hey, Ashley, someone ordered this for you? Curbside pickup?
02:39I frowned, looking at the cup.
02:41Written in elegant sharp sharpie was a single sentence.
02:43You skipped lunch again.
02:44My breath hitched.
02:47Across the busy street, a sleek black Bentley sat ailing in the rain.
02:51Behind the tinted window, the silhouette of a man was watching me.
02:54Lucian.
02:59The walk to the restroom the next day felt like walking the green mile.
03:03Did you see Noah with Charlotte at the luxury boutique downtown?
03:05The scholarship nerd is about to get dumped.
03:07Whispers followed me like flies.
03:10I pushed the doors.
03:11Noah and Charlotte were on the leather sofa.
03:13Charlotte, a billionaire hotel air now with you, was melted in to be mad.
03:16Ashley, she doesn't even own a dress that costs more than 50 bucks.
03:19Trust me, babe, you're psycho hot in that designer gown.
03:21I'd rather take it off just for you.
03:22Man, three years? That dare got way out of hand.
03:25Shut up.
03:27Oh, Ashley, you're here!
03:28Noah just helped me pick a dress for the gala your scholarship probably doesn't cover.
03:32We need to talk.
03:33Look, Ashley, I asked you to go, but you said you had to work shifts.
03:36He didn't know.
03:37The scholarship covered my tuition, but I had been working 30 hours a week to surprise him.
03:42To buy an expensive gown.
03:43And I turned around without saying another word.
03:46When I got back to my dorm, I took the gown, shoved it into the darkest corner of my wardrobe.
03:56Noah?
03:57Yeah, hey, something came up.
04:00Laughter echoed Charlotte's laugh.
04:02She had some emergency with her cat, or whatever.
04:05You're not mad, right?
04:07You know what?
04:08What?
04:09We're done.
04:11I hung up, blocked him, then ordered whiskey, and another, and another.
04:17By the time I stepped out into the freezing Manhattan night, my vision blurred around the edges.
04:22I cut through an alley to get back to campus.
04:25Bad idea.
04:27Hey, sweetheart.
04:29Pretty little thing.
04:31Don't be scared.
04:33I backed away fast.
04:38My phone slipped from my fingers and smashed against the pavement.
04:41The screen cracked, but the call had already gone through.
04:44To the last person in my contacts.
04:46I grabbed the phone with shaking hands.
04:48Help me.
04:49There are three of them.
04:50I'm nearby.
04:51Stay where you are.
04:52Protect yourself.
04:56No!
04:57Get away from me!
04:58Ah!
05:00Ah!
05:01Ah!
05:01Ah!
05:01Ah!
05:02Ah!
05:07Who the hell are you?
05:08You should be asking, who's stupid enough to touch what belongs to me?
05:13The person I called for help was my ex-boyfriend's brother.
05:19Break his hand.
05:23Ah!
05:27His attention was entirely on me.
05:29My torn dress.
05:30My shaking hands.
05:32My broken heel.
05:32Get in the car.
05:34One arm under my knees, the other around my waist.
05:37The heat rushed through me.
05:38The Bentley smelled like leather, cedar wood, and expensive cologne.
05:42Lucien draped his suit jacket over my shoulders.
05:52I looked down at my shaking fingers.
05:54Missed the buckle twice.
05:56Lucien leaned over.
05:58His hand brushed my thigh as he clicked the seatbelt into place.
06:04You called me.
06:05Not Noah.
06:07Me.
06:08It was an accident.
06:09Is that what you want to believe?
06:11Why didn't you call him back?
06:13What?
06:14Why did you stop trusting him first?
06:24Ashley?
06:25You left with my brother?
06:28Were you with him all night?
06:33No freaking way.
06:34That's Lucien Blackthrone's Bentley.
06:36I heard he doesn't even let people touch his stuff.
06:38And he drove a girl home?
06:44Ashley?
06:47Why the hell were you in my brother's car?
06:49You were with him all night?
06:50We broke up, remember?
06:52You're serious?
06:52You vanished with another guy because I missed dinner?
06:56Well, looks like Little Miss Scholarship finally found herself a billionaire.
07:00Spent the night with your ex's brother and came back wearing his clothes?
07:05Honestly?
07:06That's kind of impressive.
07:10Explain.
07:10Now.
07:11Explain?
07:12He spent the night at Charlotte's apartment and somehow I was the one on trial?
07:17A Blackthorn embarrassment.
07:19Lucien, stay out of this.
07:21You seem very interested in who Ashley spends the night with.
07:26We had a lovely evening.
07:30No way the CEO of Blackthorn Capital is teaching here?
07:33I heard he joined the board at 24.
07:35He is even hotter in person.
07:36Since last night, the entire campus had been talking about one thing.
07:40Lucien Blackthorn drove me home.
07:42Photos of me getting out of his Bentley were all over the school forum.
07:47People kept sneaking pictures of me in class, whispering, laughing.
07:52The rumors got worse every hour.
07:54She cheated on Noah.
07:56I heard she seduced his brother.
07:58Both Blackthorn brothers were sleeping with her.
08:00The lecture hall went silent.
08:01Dress shoes echoed against the wooden floor.
08:03Lucien, black shirt, silver glasses, gray-blue eyes locked directly onto mine.
08:13Ashley Carter.
08:17Here, I swallowed hard.
08:19Nice seeing you again.
08:22Did he just smile at her?
08:24Noah looks homicidal.
08:27Open your laptops.
08:28Today we're discussing one question.
08:30What is power?
08:31Silence.
08:31Money?
08:32Status?
08:33Family name?
08:34Still quiet.
08:35Then his gaze landed on me.
08:36Power is control.
08:37Go on.
08:38Real power isn't forcing people to obey you.
08:40It's making people depend on you, even when they're afraid of you.
08:43The room went dead silent.
08:45Lucien stared at me for a long moment, then smiled.
08:48Excellent.
08:49After that, he only called on me.
08:51And somehow, I answered all of them.
08:53Charlotte's expression darkened instantly.
08:56Professor Blackthrone?
08:57Lucien barely looked at her.
08:58Is it true some scholarships receive special treatment?
09:01Noah smirked like he was waiting for Lucien to deny it.
09:04Yes.
09:05Ashley does.
09:07He looked completely serious.
09:08Like publicly favoring me didn't bother him at all.
09:10Maybe because he wanted everyone to know.
09:14The whispers started immediately.
09:16My face burned.
09:17Lucien turned on the projector.
09:19The screen lit up.
09:20My paper appeared across the giant display.
09:23Ashley Carter.
09:24A+.
09:24Highest score in this course.
09:26Charlotte's smile vanished instantly.
09:29If anyone here can outperform her.
09:30His gaze swept across the room.
09:32I'll gladly offer the same treatment.
09:34Nobody spoke.
09:35Because nobody could.
09:37Charlotte's face turned red, then pale.
09:39And suddenly, for the first time since I came to this school,
09:42I felt seen.
09:43Not mocked.
09:44Not pitied.
09:45Seen.
09:46The bell rang.
09:47Everyone practically ran for the exit.
09:48I grabbed my books and stood up fast.
09:50Ashley.
09:51Lucien's voice stopped me.
09:53Stay after class.
09:54No one shot to his feet instantly.
09:56What do you want from her?
09:58Lucien finally looked at his brother.
10:00Sit down, Noah.
10:01I swallowed hard.
10:02Why am I staying?
10:04Lucien stared straight at me.
10:06Because unlike everyone else here.
10:08He opened my paper again.
10:10You're actually worth talking to.
10:11My heartbeat stumbled.
10:13I turned immediately to leave.
10:15The second I walked past the podium,
10:17Lucien caught my wrist.
10:20I should have killed them.
10:22Lucien's eyes languid on the bruises around my wrist.
10:24I pulled my hand away immediately and walked out of the lecture hall.
10:27Behind me, his voice followed.
10:29Tonight.
10:30Eight o'clock.
10:31Blackthrone Tower.
10:32That made me stop.
10:33The math competition shortlist came out this morning.
10:35You'll need private coaching.
10:37That night, I stood outside Blackthorn Tower,
10:40holding my notes against my chest.
10:42My phone screen was still open to Lucien's last message.
10:44Text me when you arrive.
10:46Before I could reply,
10:47laughter drifted down from the second floor lounge.
10:49The door upstairs wasn't fully closed.
10:51Three years, Noah.
10:52That's actually insane.
10:52Noah lounged on the couch with a whiskey glass.
10:55His football teammates were laughing around him.
10:57Seriously, man.
10:58I still can't believe you actually dated that girl.
11:00The finance nerd?
11:02Another guy snorted.
11:03Wasn't it supposed to be a one-month bet?
11:05My blood went cold.
11:07Noah lowered his head and laughed quietly.
11:10Yeah, well,
11:11she took it seriously.
11:12Bro, remember what you said?
11:14If you could get the scholarship girl to fall for you in under a month,
11:17we'd all pay up.
11:17And then somehow you dragged it out for three damn years.
11:20Honestly,
11:21you almost had us believing you liked her.
11:23The folder slipped in my hands.
11:25Three years ago,
11:26Noah Blackthorn walked toward me,
11:28smiled.
11:30Can I take you out sometime?
11:32I thought I meant something.
11:33Turns out,
11:34I was just a bet.
11:36Just entertainment for rich boys with boring lives.
11:39Still,
11:40your brother's acting weird.
11:42The room quieted slightly.
11:44I've never seen Lucian drive a woman home himself.
11:48Lucian?
11:49Noah leaned back lazily.
11:50Please,
11:51he just thinks she's interesting for now.
11:53Then he smirked.
11:54And honestly,
11:55nobody puts up with her personality,
11:56except me.
11:57Something inside me shattered completely.
12:00Every late night shift,
12:01every birthday gift I saved months to buy,
12:03every time I cried and Noah rolled his eyes saying,
12:05Can you stop being so sensitive?
12:07Now I understand why.
12:08Because to him,
12:09I was never his girlfriend.
12:10Just proof he won a game.
12:12Tears finally hit my cheeks.
12:14But this time,
12:15I wiped them away instantly.
12:16I wasted three years crying over trash.
12:18My phone buzzed suddenly.
12:20It's cold outside.
12:21Did you make it in?
12:22The only person worrying whether I was cold was Lucian.
12:24Before I could think twice,
12:26I shoved the lounge door open.
12:27Keep going.
12:28The laughter died instantly.
12:30Every face turned white.
12:31Noah shot to his feet.
12:33Ashley?
12:33I grabbed the whiskey glass off the table
12:35and threw it directly in his face.
12:38The entire room froze.
12:39Whiskey dripped from Noah's jaw slowly.
12:42His expression cracked.
12:44I smiled coldly.
12:46Congratulations, Noah.
12:47You won the bet.
12:49I stepped back.
12:50Too bad.
12:51Then I looked past him.
12:53Straight toward the hallway behind me.
12:55Because I have a new boyfriend now.
12:58Absolute silence.
13:00Lucian Blackthorne stood in the doorway.
13:02Noah looked completely stunned.
13:03And before anyone could speak again,
13:05I walked to Lucian,
13:07grabbed his hand,
13:08and left with him.
13:10The second we entered Lucian's office,
13:12I let go of his hand.
13:13Thanks for helping me back there.
13:15I forced out a breath.
13:16But you know I didn't mean it, right?
13:19Lucian loosened his tie slowly,
13:21then smiled.
13:22A fake boyfriend is still better than being hated by you.
13:25My heartbeat stumbled.
13:27Noah is a child.
13:28He never deserved you.
13:30Next time you need someone...
13:31His voice dropped lower.
13:33Call me first.
13:34Before I could answer,
13:35Lucian slid a cup across the desk.
13:37Hot chocolate.
13:39I blinked.
13:40I didn't order this.
13:41I know.
13:42I looked up slowly.
13:44You have low blood sugar.
13:46How do you know that?
13:47Lucian paused while flipping through documents.
13:49You fainted in the library's sophomore year.
13:52My chest tightened.
13:54The campus doctor mentioned it.
13:56Even Noah forgot that.
13:58Lucian remembered.
13:59He tapped the file in front of me.
14:01Analyze page one.
14:03I forced myself to focus.
14:05These are real acquisition file.
14:07I flipped another page faster.
14:09Lucian,
14:10this is confidential Black Thone Capital data.
14:13Why are you showing this to a student?
14:14Lucian heamed back in his chair calmly.
14:17Other students?
14:18His eyes met mine.
14:19No.
14:20You can handle it.
14:24I lowered my head quickly and flipped through the files,
14:27pretending to focus.
14:28Lucian watched me for a moment,
14:30then said quietly,
14:31You're avoiding me.
14:32I'm not.
14:34Really?
14:35He stood up,
14:36then walked toward me.
14:37I could feel the warmth of his body behind me.
14:40Lucian leaned down beside my chair,
14:41one hand braced against the desk.
14:43His finger pointed lightly at a line in the report near my shoulder.
14:46Here.
14:47Your analysis is wrong.
14:48Every muscle in my body locked instantly.
14:51Can you back up a little?
14:52You should stop looking at me like that.
14:54I swallowed hard.
14:55Like what?
14:56His gray-blue eyes locked onto mine.
14:58Like you're about to make a bad decision.
15:00Suddenly, I was thinking about that kiss again.
15:03The way he lost control for five straight minutes.
15:05Lucian's gaze dropped briefly to my lips.
15:08And for one second, I thought he was going to kiss me.
15:12Then...
15:12Lucian!
15:13Noah stood there, breathing hard, furious.
15:16And the first thing he saw was Lucian leaning over me with one arm around my chair,
15:20like he was holding me.
15:22What the hell are you two doing?
15:25So this is your private tutoring?
15:27A professor hooking up with his student after hours?
15:30Jealousy practically dripped from every word.
15:32Lucian lenyem peed slowly.
15:34Knock before entering.
15:35Noah clenched his fists.
15:37Lucian didn't even look at him again.
15:38Instead, he closed the file in front of me gently.
15:40Class dismissed, Ashley.
15:41Then he added,
15:43Black Throne Capital's doors are open to you.
15:45I froze.
15:46I had never told anyone my career bowls.
15:49Not even Noah.
15:50Yet somehow Lucian knew.
15:52Noah let out a sharp laugh.
15:54Ashley, when did you start dreaming this big?
15:55Black Throne only hires Ivy League MBAs and billionaire heirs.
15:59You're a scholarship student.
16:00You really think you belong there?
16:02The words hid exactly where they were supposed to.
16:04Because that fear had always lived inside me.
16:07Noah stepped closer.
16:08Don't let my brother fool you.
16:10He just likes playing with new toys.
16:12You know what people are saying about you outside?
16:14He smirked cruelly.
16:15They think you're climbing all over Lucian because you know I dumped you.
16:19Lucian finally looked up.
16:20Do you know the difference between you and Ashley?
16:22You inherited power.
16:23Then he looked directly at me.
16:25She understands it.
16:26Noah's expression changed instantly.
16:27That night, lying in bed, I couldn't stop replaying the way Lucian looked at me.
16:31We'd known each other less than ten days.
16:33And somehow he understood me better than the man I loved for three years ever did.
16:38The annual university gala looked like something out of old money heaven.
16:42Crystal champagne towers.
16:44Trust fund heirs pretending they earned their last name.
16:48Wait, that's Ashley?
16:50Holy hell.
16:51She's gorgeous.
16:52Bro, your ex cleaned up nice.
16:54If she doesn't have a date, I might steal her.
16:55I do have one.
16:56Noah!
16:57You're not actually jealous, are you?
17:00Jealous?
17:00Of her?
17:01Please.
17:02I know exactly what she looks like in the morning.
17:04Careful, Noah.
17:05Gold diggers don't let go easily.
17:07Tell me something, Ashley.
17:08How many blackfound brothers are you sleeping with now?
17:11You really thought a pretty dress would hide the fact nobody invited you?
17:14I was invited.
17:16Invited?
17:17By who?
17:18Some 50-year-old hedge fund manager?
17:21Go ahead.
17:22Say his name.
17:28Wait.
17:29Doesn't the gala have a partner registration list?
17:32Maybe we should check.
17:34Just to make sure random girls aren't sneaking in.
17:42I scanned the crowd instinctively.
17:45Still no sign of Lucian.
17:47Ashley Carter.
17:49Registered under Lucian Blackthone.
18:02Oh!
18:03My God!
18:15No wonder she got special treatment.
18:18That's disgusting.
18:20She literally slept her way into the competition.
18:25Professor Blackthorn gave her private lessons.
18:27Private meetings.
18:29Private nights.
18:31Scholarship slut.
18:32We also discovered that parts of Ashley Carter's thesis may have been plagiarized.
18:40What?
18:40That's a lie!
18:42This is defamation!
18:43Then prove it.
18:46I have recordings.
18:48I can take all of this to court.
18:50Ashley.
18:51You need to understand how this looks.
18:53For the reputation of the university.
18:55Until the investigation concludes, your scholarship and competition placement will be suspended.
19:01My body suddenly felt exhausted.
19:03She's a fraud!
19:04Not sad.
19:04So that's how she got into it.
19:05Not angry.
19:06Just tired.
19:06Tired of rich people turning lives into games.
19:09Tired of being humiliated publicly while everyone watched for entertainment.
19:13Beg me.
19:14One word.
19:16And I'll make all of this disappear.
19:18You knew?
19:19You should have stayed with me.
19:22I looked around the ballroom, and loneliness hit me all at once.
19:27Because no matter how hard I worked, I was always standing here alone.
19:38Lucy and Blackthorn had arrived.
19:45Mr. Blackthorn, we were just handling a situation.
19:48Handling what?
19:49My guest being publicly humiliated?
19:53You came because I invited you.
19:56Sorry I'm late, busy with a minor issue.
19:58Miss Charlotte, do you know how easily I could destroy your father's company?
20:12Lucian, there's no reason to escalate this.
20:14No.
20:14Now there is.
20:20Charlotte Sinclair accused Ashley Carter of plagiarism.
20:23That accusation could permanently destroy her academic career.
20:26So let's discuss evidence.
20:30My breath caught.
20:32How did he even have all this?
20:34We barely knew each other when I wrote it.
20:36Ashley Carter has over six months of documented research history.
20:40Now let's compare that to Charlotte Sinclair's submission.
20:44That's impossible.
20:46Actually, it's very possible.
20:47Especially when the anonymous plagiarism report originated from Sinclair Holdings' private network.
20:58I didn't.
21:01Page 14.
21:02Everyone turned towards me.
21:03You copied a Harvard case study word for word.
21:07You didn't even change the citation format.
21:09Noah stared at me like he was seeing me for the first time.
21:12You wrote all that?
21:13I didn't even look at him because suddenly he felt very small.
21:18Blackthrone Capital rejects mediocrity.
21:20Then his eyes found mine.
21:21But we invest in brilliance.
21:23Ashley Carter, welcome to Blackthrone.
21:25The ballroom stood frozen.
21:26Then soft music right overhead.
21:28Dance with me.
21:29I placed my hand in his slowly.
21:32Why are you doing all this for me?
21:34What do you want from me?
21:36Lucian pulled me gently into his arms.
21:39Because I'm tired of pretending.
21:41You were always supposed to be mine.
