From Wolfless Princess to Alpha Heir

Short filmTranscript
00:03At the main selection banquet, I waited alongside a dozen princesses from different packs to be
00:09chosen. I was princess of Silver Harbor Pack, but I had no wolf. I was a disgrace to my family.
00:16Rhett, heir of the Redwood Pack, was my childhood friend and the only one who'd ever pick me.
00:21Before the banquet started, he promised he'd choose me. I promised him I'd only ask for three
00:27years. After that, he could take whoever he wanted as his mate. But when the moment came,
00:32he smiled and placed the crown on Lily's head, a rogue omega he'd taken in. He leaned close to my
00:38ear and whispered, Let Lily have her moment tonight. She's never been happy a day in her life. Don't
00:44worry. With me around, no one would dare arrange your marriage. He took Lily's hand and walked her
00:49to the center of the banquet. Lily is elegant and noble. She deserves this. Noble. It made me the
00:56laughingstock of the entire night. After the crowd cleared, Rhett strolled over with a wine glass.
01:02These idiots. I told them to at least save you a crown. They can't even follow a simple order.
01:08I shocked. Do you even know what tonight's banquet means? The crown isn't just jewelry. It represents
01:14an alliance between two families. Without it, I'd be sent to mate with Blackman's Alpha Kale,
01:19a cruel, ruthless wolf.
01:25Guilt flashed across Rhett's face. He sent Lily away.
01:28When have I ever not given you expensive gifts? But Lily's got nothing. This is the one time in
01:32her life. Just think of it as me thanking you on her behalf.
01:35I frowned. You can do whatever you want any other day. Why today?
01:40He cleared his throat awkwardly.
01:42It's her 18th birthday. It means she's officially part of Redwood now.
01:46I promised her one unforgettable memory of joining the pack.
01:50Funny. This memory's gonna be unforgettable for me too.
01:53Right. You know what tonight's fall?
01:54I didn't even finish before Lily came back over.
01:57Ivy, did I mess things up for you? Please don't blame Rhett. I begged him to do it.
02:02Rhett saw Lily shrinking into herself and his face darkened at me.
02:06Enough, Ivy. It's just a crown. I'll get you another one.
02:09He grabbed a flower wreath off a nearby table and dropped it on my head.
02:12Flowers suit you better. Why do you care this much about a crown?
02:15Doesn't sound like the carefree girl I know.
02:17The crown means the alpha heir's mate.
02:19A wreath? That's just a small thing between lovers.
02:22A petal fell from my head. Like mocking me.
02:25The laughter around me got louder.
02:27A princess with no wolf. Dreaming of becoming Redwood's future Luna.
02:30Didn't you hear Rai? Elegant and noble.
02:33Even a rogue Omega ranks above her.
02:37Ivy, I'm sorry.
02:39You're an alpha's daughter.
02:41You are noble.
02:42I just wanted one night of feeling special.
02:45I didn't mean for-
02:46Me? Noble? I'm a wolf-less?
02:48You have no idea how my family treats me?
02:51The little cake in Lily's hand slipped and landed on her shoe.
02:54Her eyes turned red instantly.
02:55A few tears squeezed out, all pitiful and wronged.
02:58Rhett frowned.
02:59Anyway, let her enjoy tonight.
03:00I'm taking her to change.
03:01You can head home if you want.
03:03Home?
03:03Where did I still have a home?
03:05A sketchy male wolf saw me alone and wandered over.
03:08He leaned in close, sniffing hard at my neck.
03:10Damn, Ivy.
03:12You smell good.
03:13Without Rhett, I couldn't even get basic respect.
03:16Ryle told me to give you the crown.
03:17I didn't listen.
03:18I've been telling you to stop chasing after him and tried me instead.
03:21But you never did.
03:22So how's it feel now?
03:23Humiliating, right?
03:24He was never gonna pick a wolf-less mate.
03:27I turned, shocked.
03:28Tears rolled down my face.
03:30The words hit me like a slap.
03:32All I needed was three years.
03:33Three years to get strong enough to break free from my family.
03:36When the wolf saw, I wouldn't even look at him.
03:38His hand landed on my shoulder.
03:40Ivy, if it weren't for your face, a wolf-less waste like you, I could do whatever I want with
03:45you.
03:46You really think Reeve's gonna protect you forever?
03:47That hand was about to pull me in.
03:49Then Rhett came back and sent him flying.
03:51Rhett said,
03:52You dare touch what's mine?
03:53The wolf spat.
03:55You already picked Lily.
03:56Why do you care what happens to Ivy?
03:58You dare question what I do?
04:00The wolf cursed under his breath and walked away.
04:04Lily rushed over too, looking worried.
04:06Ivy, are you okay?
04:08Rhett turned me around to face him.
04:09He touched you and you didn't fight back?
04:12I can't protect you forever.
04:13I opened my mouth to speak, but Lily grabbed Rhett's arm.
04:17Right, I want a drink.
04:17Can you get me one?
04:18Rhett said,
04:19Sure.
04:20You're tonight, Star.
04:21Wait here.
04:21The second Rhett left, Lily's face changed.
04:25You already have everything.
04:26You want to take this one bit of glory from me too?
04:29Ivy?
04:30I just need Reet's protection for one night, so no one bullies me after I join the pack.
04:34Like I'm any better off than her?
04:36No wolf.
04:37No one in my family cares if I live or die.
04:40I learned to read the room when I was still a kid.
04:42If it weren't for this face, I wouldn't have survived this long.
04:45I found my way to Uncle Dorian, got on my knees and begged him to train me.
04:50Back me.
04:50He said,
04:51Your father has plenty of powerful children.
04:53Why would I bet on a wolf-less girl to be the next heir?
04:56I said,
04:57Because I have nothing to lose.
04:59Not afraid to die trying.
05:00But now, the timing's not right.
05:03Dorian won't help me yet.
05:05Black Moon was the strongest pack in the north.
05:07My family didn't want to offend them and didn't want to send my stronger sisters.
05:11So they sent me.
05:15Uncle Dorian must have heard what happened.
05:17He sent me a message.
05:19I hugged myself, shaking from the cold.
05:21Lily touched my freezing hand.
05:23You guess does Wright actually know what that crown means?
05:25I found Rhett.
05:27Asked him straight up.
05:28Do you know what your crown means?
05:29Yeah.
05:30Picking a mate, right?
05:31It's just a formality.
05:32No one got marked.
05:34Don't worry.
05:35I'll talk to your dad.
05:37I won't let them arrange a mate for you.
05:39Then can you get the crown back from Lily?
05:41I just need it for one night.
05:43I'll return it.
05:44Rhett looked surprised.
05:45Then uncomfortable.
05:46That's not great.
05:48I already gave it to her.
05:49Right.
05:50You know I won't cling to you.
05:51I have someone I like.
05:52You're free after three years.
05:54Why are you humiliating me like this?
05:56His smile disappeared.
05:57He backed me into a corner.
05:58Dead serious.
05:59Ivy.
06:00No one else will ever choose you as a mate.
06:02I'm all you've got.
06:03You can only like me.
06:05Lily walked over.
06:06Rhett pulled her into his arms.
06:08Ivy.
06:08Just one night.
06:09Don't be too willful.
06:10Tomorrow she officially joins Redwood and goes on with her life.
06:13I left the banquet.
06:14Got into the car Dorian sent for me.
06:16Inside.
06:17Dorian sat in all black.
06:19Cold as ice.
06:20Not a hint of a smile.
06:21It's done.
06:22Tomorrow you go to Black Moon Pack.
06:23What happens after that is on you.
06:24I'll come back.
06:26Dorian said.
06:27I'll see.
06:28I got home.
06:29The door was locked.
06:30Only my sister Sansa stood outside.
06:33Looking down at me.
06:34If I were you I wouldn't have shown up tonight just to embarrass myself.
06:37Mom says there's no reason for you to come home.
06:39You can't take anything valuable.
06:41Not even that dress.
06:42She threw my suitcase at my feet.
06:44Just a few old clothes inside.
06:45I stripped off the gown right in front of her.
06:48Took off every piece of jewelry.
06:49Turned and walked away.
06:51Behind me I heard her say.
06:53Oh.
06:53Mom says Black Moon's alpha has a true love.
06:55Good luck with that.
07:02Early the next morning I boarded a flight to Black Moon.
07:05I scrolled through my phone.
07:06Every headline was about Red choosing Lily as his mate.
07:09A few she-wolves behind me were buzzing with excitement.
07:12I heard Red had a childhood sweetheart.
07:14A wolf princess.
07:15Didn't expect him to pick an omega.
07:17Lucky one.
07:18All the same anyway.
07:19That princess doesn't even have a wolf.
07:21No way the future Luna can be wolf-less.
07:24I listened quietly.
07:25But my heart stayed calm.
07:27Soon.
07:27None of this would have anything to do with me anymore.
07:29As the plane slowly taxied down the runway.
07:32I looked out the window.
07:33Then suddenly it stopped.
07:35A group of wolves had surrounded the aircraft outside.
07:38I pulled out my phone and saw a message from Dorian.
07:41Red had gone to Silver Harbor looking for me.
07:43Only to find out I was gone.
07:44After questioning the servants, he learned I had already left for Black Moon.
07:49He flew into a rage and brought his men to the airport to stop me.
07:52Another message popped up.
07:54Are you coming back?
07:55Red still wants to choose you as his partner.
07:57Red spoiled me.
07:58Yes, but he would never damage the interests of the Redwood pack for my sake.
08:02If I went back, all I would get were cold stares and ridicule.
08:05And maybe Black Moon wasn't my only dead end.
08:08I let out a quiet sigh and stepped off the plane.
08:16After getting off the plane, I saw Rhett standing outside with a dark expression.
08:20He strode toward me and grabbed my wrist.
08:23Ivy, come with me.
08:25Just as I was about to speak, another plane landed.
08:28Several tall wolves stepped off and walked straight toward me.
08:31Miss Ivy, I'm Alex.
08:33Alpha Kale sent us to pick you up.
08:35He turned to Rhett.
08:37Alpha hair of the Redwood pack, we're here to bring Miss Ivy back.
08:40Please step aside.
08:41Rhett's eyes turned cold.
08:43Who dares take my woman away?
08:45A few shoe wolves standing near the cabin door started whispering excitedly.
08:49Didn't Reel choose Lily as his mate?
08:51Don't tell me he regrets it now.
08:53That kind of love is seriously enviable.
08:55If a man chased me like that, I'd say yes immediately.
08:58Rhett stared at me.
09:00Your family is sending you to Alpha Kale for a political mating alliance.
09:04Why didn't you tell me?
09:05I felt helpless.
09:06I had tried more than once to tell him, but all his attention had been on Lily.
09:11Ryke, you protected me for so many years.
09:13I'm grateful for that.
09:15Things turned out this way, but I don't blame anyone.
09:21You don't blame anyone?
09:22If that's true, then come back with me.
09:26I'll talk to your father.
09:27I'll choose you as my mate.
09:29I looked up at him.
09:31Rain fell from the dark sky.
09:32His hair was messy, and his eyes were red with panic.
09:36I had never seen him look this miserable before.
09:39Alex stepped in front of me, doing his job without hesitation.
09:43The time we gave Silverhar is over.
09:46Today, Miss Ivy is leaving with us.
09:48Rhett ignored him completely.
09:50His eyes stayed fixed on me.
09:51I slowly shook my head.
09:53Ryke, I already told you.
09:55I only wanted our three-year agreement.
09:57I have someone I like.
09:59I never planned to become your mate.
10:01That line again?
10:02He frowned.
10:03You grew up in Silver Harbor.
10:05Who could you possibly like?
10:06I know you hated it when others called you my little tail.
10:10Stop being stubborn.
10:11Come back with me first.
10:13Without realizing it, his voice turned pleading.
10:16I was grateful to him.
10:17But the moment Rhett placed the crown on Lily's head, it already meant there was no future
10:21left for us.
10:25Rhylt, Lily is your mate now.
10:27Everyone already knows it.
10:29You two should live well together.
10:32Rhett Redwood let out a cold laugh.
10:34Who would choose a rogue Omega as mate?
10:36Are you joking?
10:37Even if I picked you, it would never be her.
10:41My eyes dimmed.
10:42All these years, Rhett liked me, but he never truly respected me.
10:46This time, I left without hesitation.
10:48I followed Alex toward the private jet belonging to Black Moon.
10:52Rhett stood behind me, fury burning in his eyes.
10:56Ivy, think carefully!
10:58Once you go to Black Moon, no one will protect you anymore!
11:01Do you really not want to be my mate?
11:04If you leave now, don't regret it later.
11:07I didn't answer him.
11:09I turned around and boarded the plane.
11:11Alex had thoughtfully prepared clean clothes for me.
11:14He pointed toward the lounge inside the cabin and lowered his voice.
11:17You can rest in there for a while.
11:19You're gonna get sick out in the rain.
11:20The aircraft was incredibly luxurious.
11:23It had been custom made.
11:27The lounge didn't just have a bed.
11:29There were fresh clothes prepared too.
11:31The room's decoration clearly didn't look like Kale's style.
11:34I changed into the clothes and froze again.
11:37They were exactly my size.
11:39After changing, I walked out of the lounge.
11:42Excuse me, does Alpha Kale usually use this plane?
11:45Alex immediately noticed my confusion.
11:48This aircraft was specially prepared for you by Alpha Kale.
11:51Everything was designed around your preferences.
11:54He personally chose all the items inside too.
11:56The materials are the softest and most comfortable available.
11:59I almost dropped my jaw.
12:02Something this luxurious had been casually given to a complete stranger.
12:06Wasn't he supposed to already have someone he liked?
12:09Then why treat an arranged marriage mate with no value this well?
12:12The trip to Black Moon will take a while.
12:14Alex said softly.
12:16You should get some rest first.
12:20No one had ever cared about my feelings before.
12:22I was always the one watching others' moods, trying to please them.
12:25So this sudden kindness only made me nervous.
12:28Alex seemed to notice my discomfort and quietly left the lounge.
12:32I took out a pen and wrote my thoughts on paper.
12:35I only had worries about the unknown.
12:37The plane finally landed on a wide stretch of green land.
12:40Only after stepping off did I realize this was the Alpha House of Black Moon.
12:44Even coming from an Alpha family myself, I had never seen a place this luxurious.
12:49Kale personally came to pick me up.
12:51He wore a gentle smile.
12:52Nothing like the cold and ruthless man from the rumors.
12:55He draped a coat over my shoulders.
12:57His voice low and smooth.
12:59Are you cold?
13:00I shivered slightly and stepped back with hesitation.
13:03Alpha, I know you already have someone you like and I know what my position is here.
13:07But I beg you, give me three years.
13:10During those three years, I'll do whatever you ask me to do.
13:12After that, please let me leave.
13:15Kale frowned a little, like he didn't understand what I meant.
13:21Someone I like?
13:23Three years?
13:25Yes.
13:26Give me three years.
13:28I nodded quickly.
13:30I'll be a good Luna.
13:32I'll do anything you ask.
13:33After three years, just let me leave.
13:36Kale frowned even harder.
13:38When he looked toward Alex, there was clear questioning in his eyes.
13:42But after getting no answer, he stepped closer instead and pulled me halfway into his arms.
13:48My whole face instantly turned red.
13:50Who told you we were keeping things this separate, my mate?
13:54Seeing me completely frozen, he seemed to be in a pretty good mood.
13:58He lifted my chin and leaned even closer.
14:01You are my only mate.
14:04Even after entering the room, I still hadn't recovered from the shock.
14:08Wasn't he supposed to be ruthless and terrifying?
14:14Kale's house was filled with sharp lines and minimalist furniture.
14:17Everything looked clean, cold, and efficient.
14:20But mixed in were a few colorful decorations that were obviously newly added.
14:24I sat on the couch, still unable to process everything.
14:28Flat Moon had already become the strongest pack in the entire werewolf world because of its overwhelming power.
14:33Kale didn't need a political mating alliance to strengthen his position.
14:37And why would he choose someone like me?
14:39A wolfless she-wolf with no value at all?
14:41After hesitating for a moment, I handed him a piece of paper.
14:45This is my plan.
14:46Please take a look.
14:47I also want to borrow some money.
14:49I'll pay you back in the future.
14:50He pulled the paper from my hand and glanced over it casually.
14:54You need money?
14:55There was no way I could pretend otherwise.
14:57I was an alpha's daughter.
14:58Yet I arrived at Black Moon with almost nothing.
15:00I pressed my lips together and answered quietly.
15:04Yes, I don't have any money right now.
15:06But don't worry, I'll find a way to pay you back.
15:08He didn't question me.
15:10Instead, his large hand wrapped around my cold fingers and gently rubbed warmth back into them.
15:21My face turned red again.
15:23And somehow, Kale looked even happier because of it.
15:26What do you need money for?
15:27I froze and looked up at him.
15:29Only then did I realize something.
15:31Maybe the Luna of Black Moon didn't control any finances.
15:35Asking him for money, this directly might have been too much.
15:38I straightened up and spoke seriously.
15:41Alpha, I don't want my life controlled by my family forever.
15:44I definitely don't want to become someone who depends on others for everything.
15:48I want my own career.
15:49And if possible, I want what rightfully belongs to me in my pack.
15:53Kale seemed surprised that I spoke so honestly.
15:55Then he gently rubbed my hair.
15:57His eyes full of indulgence.
15:59Everything in Black Moon belongs to you.
16:01Under my stunned gaze, he told Alex to bring over a bank card.
16:05This is my personal card.
16:06Spend whatever you want.
16:08The room Kale arranged for me was the best suite in the entire Alpha house.
16:12Sunlight poured through the windows and the room was beautifully decorated.
16:16As a so-called princess who had always been treated like an outsider in Silver Harbor, I was completely stunned.
16:26For once, I actually slept well.
16:28The next morning, the first message I received was from Dorian.
16:33Red Redwood was furious.
16:34Why didn't you come back with him?
16:36Dorian was the only one in Silver Harbor who had ever supported me.
16:40But he wasn't truly on my side.
16:42It was always calculation behind his words.
16:45I replied simply,
16:47Dorian, I'm not a pet you can call back whenever you want.
16:50Then he sent back coldly.
16:52Oh, I thought you already saw yourself as a tool for power games.
16:56I didn't respond after that.
16:58I only ever borrowed 1 million from Kale.
17:00And I did my job as Luna properly.
17:02I attended every banquet with him, standing at his side while others admired and flattered me.
17:08Even though Kale spoiled me endlessly, I never forgot my own position.
17:13Quietly, over those three years, I used that money to build my own power base in the southern territories.
17:19Step by step, without anyone noticing.
17:25On one side, I used influence to slowly weaken the power of Silver Harbor.
17:30On the other, I blocked their attempts to form alliances with other packs.
17:35Bit by bit, I made my father realize something.
17:38All his children were useless.
17:40My older brothers and sisters tried everything they could.
17:44They used every skill they had.
17:46But none of them could save Silver Harbor's declining power.
17:49The pack members grew more and more restless.
17:52Complaints spread everywhere.
17:54In the end, all my siblings lost their rights to be heirs.
17:58Only then did I finally feel a breath of relief.
18:01It was already 10pm when I got home.
18:04Kale was sitting under the warm light, waiting for me.
18:07Something in my chest softened.
18:09I walked over to the sofa without thinking and wrapped my arms around his solid back.
18:16After I held him for a while, I finally let go and calmed down.
18:20Kale said,
18:21Why are you back some late?
18:23You tired?
18:24I made you soup.
18:25I was about to explain, but the words stopped in my throat.
18:29Kale took my hand and led me to the table.
18:32He made sure I drank the soup himself.
18:34Kale said,
18:35When are you going to try?
18:37Relying on me a little?
18:38You don't have to push yourself this hard.
18:41I looked at him under the warm light.
18:43He was serious, and it made me feel a little guilty.
18:46My three-year agreement is up.
18:48I should go back where I originally belong, right?
18:50Kale didn't look surprised.
18:51It was like he already expected this.
18:54You still like Silver Harbor.
18:55I know Dorian has been supporting you,
18:57and that Wright has come looking for you several times.
19:00But you didn't see him.
19:01I was a little shocked.
19:03He knew everything, but he never said a word about it.
19:09Dorian was just using me.
19:11He thought if I became heir, he control me,
19:14and take over the whole pack through me.
19:16And Wright, the day I left, we were already done.
19:19There was no way back.
19:21Kale looked at me and asked,
19:22Then why do you still want to go back?
19:23I answered,
19:25I have enough now.
19:26I can take back what belongs to me.
19:28I'll return your money ten times over.
19:30I sounded calm, but my chest felt tight.
19:33These three years in Black Moon,
19:35I had actually been happy.
19:37More than I ever expected.
19:38And without even realizing it,
19:41my feelings had already started to lean toward him.
19:43But every time I thought about it,
19:45I reminded myself he had someone he liked.
19:48I didn't want to be the one stuck waiting.
19:50I said quietly,
19:51Kale, I've always known you have someone you like.
19:55Actually, I do too.
19:57He raised a brow.
19:58So you never opened up to me?
20:00Because you thought I loved someone else?
20:02He leaned back slightly.
20:03Can I ask you something?
20:05Who is the person you like?
20:06I went silent.
20:07That memory felt so far away now.
20:10So far that even I wasn't sure anymore.
20:12Did that person even really exist?
20:17When I was a kid,
20:18I went out with my brothers and sisters.
20:20They left me behind on the street.
20:22A little boy took me home.
20:24He even gave me food.
20:26I only remember he said he came from the north.
20:29I never knew who he really was.
20:31It was the first time someone was kind to me.
20:33I always wanted to repay that kindness.
20:35I paused, then kept going.
20:37Honestly, Kale, I've hesitated many times.
20:40I like it here, but I've been abandoned too many times.
20:43If I know someone doesn't belong to me,
20:45I won't let myself fall into dependence again.
20:47As I spoke, Kale's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
20:50There was something intense in his gaze.
20:52He took my hand into his palm and pulled me closer
20:54until our noses almost touched.
20:57Ivy, how do you know?
20:58The person I like isn't you.
21:00That night on the street,
21:01there was a little she-wolf said
21:03she'd become my mate just for a meal.
21:05I never forgot her.
21:07It felt like lightning struck me.
21:08The person I had been searching for all these years
21:11was right in front of me.
21:12A huge wave of happiness hit me so hard.
21:15I didn't even notice when his lips
21:17had already pressed against mine.
21:19The space between us disappeared.
21:20The warmth kept rising.
21:22And at some point,
21:23there was no distance left at all.
21:25My mate was the one I had been looking for all this time.
21:27Tears slipped down my face,
21:29full of relief and gratitude.
21:35A few days later,
21:37a Northern Territory pack hosted a large banquet.
21:40Both the Silver Harbor pack and the Redwood pack arrived.
21:44A beta from Silver Harbor came straight to the Black Moon side.
21:47When he saw me,
21:49his attitude was still the same cold and superior.
21:52Ivy, the alpha said you're supposed to come over.
21:57I didn't even look at him.
21:59I just kept arranging the flowers in my hand.
22:02He stepped forward, trying to grab me.
22:05What are you acting so proud for?
22:06Don't forget who fed you when you were a kid.
22:10A low voice cut in.
22:12Is that so?
22:13Kale stood behind me.
22:15His tone was ice cold.
22:17I didn't know a beta
22:18had the guts to touch my mate.
22:21His hand slid naturally to my waist,
22:24pulling me closer.
22:31Someone like you
22:32dares to lay a hand on my mate?
22:36You really think this is a joke?
22:38That beta who used to bully me since childhood
22:41ended up with a broken leg.
22:42He was dragged back to my father,
22:45coughing blood.
22:46Only then did my father realize
22:47I was no longer the weak daughter he remembered.
22:50On the day of the banquet,
22:52all the alpha families
22:53from different packs gathered together.
22:55My father noticed that
22:56everyone was only going up to greet Kale.
22:59He came and said,
23:01Alpha Kale,
23:02are you satisfied with Ivy?
23:04The crowd slowly parted.
23:06People turned to look at my father.
23:07He thought the alpha of the southern territory
23:09still had influence here in the north.
23:11But no one reacted.
23:12They just exchanged confused
23:14looks no one even recognized him.
23:16My mother, as usual,
23:18looked unhappy and cold.
23:23Ivy, your parents are here.
23:25You don't even know how to greet?
23:27You've barely contacted the family all these years.
23:30Others might think Silver Harbor
23:31has no rules at all.
23:33Kale's wine glass hit the table
23:35with a sharp sound.
23:36The entire hall went quiet.
23:38All the probing eyes
23:39immediately turned alert.
23:40That was his warning.
23:42They were not welcome.
23:43My father's expression changed instantly.
23:45Only then did he realize
23:46something was wrong.
23:47Silver Harbor's power
23:48had been weakening in the south recently.
23:50Their resources had already been taken
23:52by a small company.
23:53They were desperate for alliances and resources.
23:55Only now did they remember me.
23:57They thought this marriage was their chance.
23:59If they had lowered their pride
24:00and asked properly,
24:01there might still have been a way forward.
24:03But my father had always been an alpha
24:05who never bent his head.
24:06So he couldn't ask for help.
24:08When the banquet ended,
24:09my family left in low spirits.
24:11My mother, especially,
24:13kept mocking me during the dinner,
24:15implying I only became Kale's Luna
24:17by stealing from my sisters.
24:23I walked out of the banquet hall.
24:25Someone suddenly stepped in behind me
24:27and blocked my path.
24:28You talk about the person you like,
24:30but where is he now?
24:31Rat Redwood said coldly.
24:33You refuse to come back with me.
24:35And now that you're a Luna,
24:37you've changed your story?
24:38It had been a long time
24:39since I last saw him.
24:41He looked darker, more unstable.
24:43His eyes froze on the expensive jewelry
24:45around my neck.
24:47I sighed.
24:48Reet, I'm grateful you protected me
24:49all those years.
24:50But you were the one
24:51who didn't choose me back then.
24:53You don't need to mock me now.
24:54The person I dislike
24:55is right here with me.
24:57He said sharply.
24:58So what about everything between us?
25:00All those years we knew each other?
25:01I always wanted you to be my mate.
25:04I said.
25:05Then what about Lily?
25:06Wasn't she the one you chose?
25:07Everyone saw it at that banquet.
25:09You made your choice.
25:11Back then,
25:11the Redwood pack didn't fully accept a Rogue Omega.
25:14But in the end,
25:15everyone just assumed she was his mate.
25:21Lily had even publicly claimed to be Kale's mate multiple times,
25:25becoming a joke.
25:27Now she was locked away,
25:29unable to appear in public at all.
25:31Rhett was about to speak again
25:32when Dorian stepped out from the side.
25:34Dorian said coldly,
25:35What do you even mean?
25:37She was trained by me.
25:39And now she's grown so ambitious.
25:41I only just realized it.
25:43He walked closer.
25:44The biggest mistake I made
25:46was letting you go.
25:48I gave you enough freedom
25:50to build power against Silver Harbor.
25:52You're sharp.
25:53You really are the best among
25:55all Alpha children.
25:56If only you weren't born wolf-less.
25:59His sigh echoed through the night,
26:00a sigh that also revealed his regret
26:03at the breakdown of our alliance of interests.
26:05That winter,
26:07Silver Harbor fell into chaos.
26:09A few ambitious elders
26:10secretly poisoned my father.
26:12His wolf power was damaged.
26:14And he was forced to stay in bed,
26:17unable to get up.
26:19Only my mother was left,
26:21trying to hold the image
26:22of the Alpha family together,
26:24along with a few useless brothers and sisters.
26:27They sent someone to track down
26:29the leader of that small company.
26:32That was when I came back
26:33to Silver Harbor again.
26:35It had been years,
26:36but nothing here had changed.
26:38When I was young,
26:39I thought the outside world
26:40was full of strong and ruthless wolves.
26:43I thought staying home
26:44meant at least having food to eat.
26:46But after I left,
26:47I finally understood.
26:49All the hardship
26:50had always come from home.
26:52I stepped inside and saw my father.
26:54He was lying in bed,
26:56weak and pale.
26:57My mother was feeding him medicine,
26:59forcing it into his mouth.
27:00When he saw me,
27:02he suddenly struggled up
27:03and pointed at me.
27:04Ivy.
27:05Ivy is back.
27:06She's now the Luna
27:08of Black Moon Pack.
27:09With Black Moon behind her,
27:11who would dare touch us now?
27:13I covered my mouth
27:14with a handkerchief,
27:15swallowing the nausea
27:17rising in my throat.
27:22I came back to tell you something.
27:24Announce me as the next Alpha Hare.
27:26I'll handle everything else.
27:28What?
27:28My father's voice sharpened.
27:30You dare?
27:31You're a wolf-less failure.
27:33You can't be the Alpha Hare.
27:34I looked at him
27:35and smiled a little.
27:36I forgot to mention something.
27:37All of Silver Harbor's resources
27:39are already under my control.
27:40The title of Alpha
27:41is just a formality now.
27:43I didn't just want the resources.
27:45I wanted the Alpha seat too.
27:47When I walked out,
27:48I was already the designated heir.
27:50Even now,
27:50I still remembered the shock
27:52in my father's eyes
27:52when he learned the truth.
27:53That company leader was you?
27:56Yes.
27:57I met his gaze.
27:58Did you not know?
27:59My wolf
27:59has already awakened.
28:03With Kale behind me,
28:04everything moved faster than expected.
28:06I stood in front of everyone
28:08and officially announced myself
28:09as the next Alpha of Silver Harbor.
28:11From that moment on,
28:13I was no longer the wolf-less princess
28:15they used to laugh at.
28:16I was not only the Luna of Black Moon,
28:19I was also the Alpha heir of Silver Harbor.
28:21And for the first time,
28:23everyone looked at me with full respect.
