They messed with the wrong Luna

Short filmTranscript
00:00Three years into our bond, Ethan's power had only grown, and his reputation for doting on
00:04his Luna had grown with it. Vivian had always had a talent for flaunting other people's lives in my
00:07face. At the Blood Summit auction, Ethan won a Hearthstone chain for his Luna. Value? $20
00:13million. Every female on the continent envies that woman. It's this one. Everyone was staring
00:19at the chain on my wrist. Damon grabbed my hand and leaned in for a close look.
00:23Replica, which delivery boy Omega bought you this? Wearing garbage like that in public,
00:27shameless. I pulled my hand free. I traced my fingers over every stone on the chain. The day
00:32Ethan clasped it onto my wrist, he murmured in my ear, don't ever take it off. I smiled. Damon saw
00:36my smile. His pupils contracted sharply. He lunged forward and ripped the chain from my wrist. I
00:41hadn't been ready for it. He got away with it. The thing Ethan gave me had just fallen into Vivian's
00:44hands. Nice weight. Definitely more refined than the fake I bought, but I wouldn't be caught dead
00:49wearing something like this in public. Or could it be Lena? Are you Lena? You're the legendary Blood
00:55Summit Luna? The laughter that broke out was deafening because it was absurd. Ethan was the
00:59strongest alpha on the continent. And I, three years ago, was the broken Omega Damon had driven
01:04out of Pack Hall. No one could possibly connect the two. Vivian tossed the chain in her palm,
01:08weighing it. Lena, I'll buy this off you. Double the price. Give it back. That was a gift from Ethan.
01:16Shut up. Damon towered over me, eyes burning with irritation. You think you can drop Ethan's name
01:21just like that? Spreading rumors about a connection with him in a place like this? Are you trying to
01:26get me killed? Lena, do you have any idea? Getting to receive Ethan's Luna was a chance a thousand
01:32people fought over. Damon's pack was acquired by Ethan three years ago. We all survive on his good
01:37will now. If you spread lies here, you'll bring ruin down on every single one of us. I slowly raised
01:41my
01:41hand and wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth. Slowly turned my head and looked Damon
01:46directly in the eyes. Damon's brow furrowed. Something in his gaze flickered with unease.
01:51He thought I was the Lena he remembered. He thought I would cry, beg, explain. He didn't know. The way
01:56I
01:57looked at him now was the same way I'd look at a dead man. Vivian caught the way Damon was
02:00looking
02:00at me. She immediately pointed a finger in my face. Lena, you ungrateful wolf. Damon already agreed
02:06to take you in and this is how you act? Even if you resent him, you don't get to use
02:11this kind of
02:11revenge. I had a strange sense of deja vu. Three years ago, it was exactly like this. No matter
02:16what happened, Vivian would twist the truth and feed it to Damon. In the beginning, Damon would
02:20still yell at Vivian for it. Later, he started echoing her words to come after me. Just like now,
02:25Damon bit out. Jealous. But he didn't keep going. He went quiet for a moment, then reached into his
02:30jacket, placed a check in front of me. Two hundred thousand. The posture of charity. The expression of
02:35charity. He genuinely believed this was the greatest dignity he could offer me. Out of respect for what
02:40we once had, I won't do anything to you. Take the money. Go buy yourself something decent to wear.
02:45If you don't want to look after the child, I'll find you a respectable position in a few days.
02:49Since Ethan acquired my pack, this amount means nothing to me. I looked at that check. Looked at
02:53his face. Giving charity. Under the stunned stares of everyone around us, I pushed it back.
02:58Retrieved the chain from Vivian's hand. No thank you. I don't take things from strangers.
03:02I'm a stranger? Lena, what the hell does that mean? Since the relationship is over,
03:07it's better we don't associate. I wouldn't want my husband to get the wrong idea.
03:11Damon's expression shifted. He glanced at Vivian and that knowing look crossed his face.
03:17He thought I was trying to make him jealous. In three days, Ironcrest Pack is hosting a
03:21Blood Moon Gala in Ethan's honor. I'll take you. Give you a glimpse of how the other half lives.
03:28Though you'll need to find yourself something decent to wear first, or else...
03:31No thank you. Damon's face darkened. Lena, I hope in three days, you'll still feel this confident.
03:38I walked out of the arrival gate without looking back. Fresh air flooded my lungs. The nausea in
03:43my stomach finally began to ease. Three years ago, my family had pressured me to cross the border for
03:46an arranged marriage. I held out against it and ran to Damon, begging him to complete our bond first.
03:52Make it a done deal before anyone could interfere. As you wish. He agreed. Then at the doors of Pack
03:56Hall,
03:57I didn't just find him. I found Vivian waiting beside him. Vivian's pup needs to be registered.
04:02I have to complete the bond with her first. One month. Then I'll come for you immediately.
04:06It's only for the child's sake. Don't read into it. I watched him walk into Pack Hall with Vivian
04:11on his arm. That night, I set out. One month later, I married Ethan. A year after that, Leo was
04:17born.
04:17Just a few days ago, I confirmed I was carrying a second. If not for accompanying Ethan back for the
04:22ancestral rites. I would never have set foot on this land again for the rest of my life.
04:26Let alone, run into him at the arrival gate. Three days later, I put on a light layer of makeup.
04:31The same custom soft fabric dress. I went to the Blood Moon Gala alone. The moment I walked in,
04:36Damon spotted me. A light flickered in his eyes. That familiar self-satisfied curve pulled at the
04:42corner of his mouth. Said you wouldn't come, but here you are. Body doesn't lie.
04:50Though if you want me to look twice, you could at least dress the part.
04:54For an occasion like this, what you're wearing...
04:57I stepped around him and kept walking. He grabbed my arm.
04:59I'm talking to you.
05:03Our seats are over here. Where are you going?
05:06I looked calmly toward the far end of the hall.
05:08That's your seat. Mine is over there.
05:11Following my gaze, Damon saw the head table. The Alpha's seat. The Luna's seat. His expression
05:15changed. Vivian's eyes turned vicious instantly. She fixed her glare on the chain at my wrist and
05:20raised her voice.
05:21Lena! How did you get in here? Are you here to cause trouble? Walking in with that chain.
05:27Are you trying to humiliate the Luna? Tonight is Ethan's first time bringing his Luna out in public.
05:33Rogue woman, get out!
05:34Every guest in the room turned to look. Someone glanced at Damon.
05:38Damon Alpha, do you know this person?
05:39Damon straightened his cuffs, perfectly composed.
05:42No.
05:42One word. Clean. Final. Vivian lifted her chin immediately.
05:47Take off that chain and get out!
05:49She reached for it. I stepped aside. But someone deliberately tripped me from behind.
05:53I fell. Vivian planted her foot on my wrist. The chain. She tore it free with brute force.
06:00The gems scattered across the floor, like a shattered constellation.
06:04Drag her out!
06:05Pain screamed through my wrist, bone-
06:06Stop! I'm Ethan!
06:09His what? His mistress?
06:11Who do you think you are?
06:13Damon had his people throw me off the cackle at our mating ceremony.
06:16Vivian's pup needs a father on paper. Once my bond with her is dissolved, I will marry you.
06:21Everyone assumed I would wait one more month. After all, I had already waited seven years.
06:25But that very same night, I accepted my family's marriage arrangement. I flew across the border and
06:28left Damon's world. For good.
06:30Three years later, I returned to the old territory with my husband for the ancestral rights.
06:33Ethan was held up by something urgent, so we fly separately. He sent people from a pack he had
06:38acquired three years ago, to pick me up. In the crowd at the arrival gate, I spotted a sign. It
06:42bore my pack name, Lena. I walked toward it. The person holding the sign looked up. It was Damon.
06:46Vivian stood beside him, along with a group of old friends from years past. They were waiting for me.
06:50They didn't know the person they were waiting for was me. Damon saw me. He startled for a second.
06:53Then that self-important smile slid back onto his face.
06:56See? I told you she'd come back. Damon, isn't that your little lapdog, Lena?
07:01Someone in the crowd recognized me. Laughter erupted.
07:04She disappeared for three years and now that Damon's made it big she comes crawling back?
07:07Dressed like that? She can't even afford a decent outfit? Things must have gone badly out
07:11there, huh, Lena? I glanced down at the heartstone chain on my wrist, the one worth 20 million dollars.
07:15I said nothing. Whenever I used to see Damon I dressed to perfection. The most flawless makeup.
07:19The most tailored gown. Putting my very best self on display for him. And now, this outfit was
07:24custom made for me by someone Ethan had commissioned. Because I was pregnant, and he refused to let me
07:28wear anything restrictive. I didn't need to dress up for anyone anymore all for comfort. I also
07:31understood what was happening. They only knew my pack name. They had no idea the person they were
07:35here to collect was me. So they were still mocking me, still unaware of what they were doing.
07:40The silence stretched too long. One of Damon's old friends stepped in to smooth things over.
07:44Lena, it's good that you're back. Damon's actually been looking for you all these years.
07:48The smile on Damon's face stiffened for a beat.
07:50Vivian's pup is starting academy soon. You'll be responsible for drop-offs and pickups from now on.
07:54Three years had passed. He was exactly the same. That sense of entitlement. That air of superiority.
07:58I was about to reveal who I was.
08:00Lena, don't blame Damon. He's arranging this for your own good. The way you've been getting by out
08:05there, you don't even qualify to be my personal secretary. Help me look after my son. No one will
08:10look down on you for that. Damon caught me frowning and assumed I was jealous. A flicker of
08:13satisfaction crossed his eyes. Alright, if the outside world didn't work out, stop pretending it did.
08:18Take care of the child. Know your place. Don't worry. There's no shortage of Omega servant quarters
08:24in the house. He genuinely believed. I had come back because I couldn't let him go. Look how well
08:28Damon's taking care of you. Room and board all sorted. Go on. Thank Damon.
08:33Lena, don't worry. If my son acts up, I'll discipline him myself. I won't let you be mistreated.
08:39Damon let out a cold laugh. What does she have to be mistreated about?
08:42She vanished over something trivial, and now she's back because she couldn't make it out there.
08:47A little hardship is exactly what she deserves.
08:50My heart skipped. Even now, he still called that trivial. The heavy rain outside Pac Hall is back
08:54as he walked in with Vivian. Seven years. To him, it was just a trivial thing. The boy who had
08:58once
08:59carried me across half the territory while bleeding out himself, just to keep his promise. He was long
09:03dead. Dead the day he chose Vivian for the first time. It was all in the past. I didn't need
09:07any of that
09:07anymore. I was about to have my second child. I pressed down every feeling and looked at Damon
09:12with perfect calm. Aren't you here to pick me up? Let's go. A beat of silence fell over the crowd.
09:17Then, laughter exploded. Wait for you? Who do you think you are? We're waiting for Lena.
09:24Do you even know who that is? Of course I did. That's my name.
09:28Ethan swore never to bond. They say he was waiting for her his whole life. Everyone in the circles knows
09:33if you want to get close to Ethan, go through his Luna. There's nothing he wouldn't give up for that
09:36woman. Listening to them describe my own life, I couldn't keep the corners of my mouth from
09:40lifting. Three years into our bond, Ethan's power had only grown, and his reputation for doting on
09:44his Luna had grown with it. Vivian had always had a talent for flaunting other people's lives in my
09:47face. At the Blood Summit auction, Ethan won a heartstone chain for his Luna. Value? 20 million
09:53dollars. Every female on the continent envies that woman.
