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