Revenge on the Werewolf King's Bed
Transcript
00:03Send your most beautiful woman to my bed tonight.
00:06The day the notorious Lycan King came to ask for a bedmate in our pack,
00:10my own mate Alpha Daemon sent me to his bed instead of my stepsister.
00:13Celeste is too fragile for a beast like him.
00:17Go in her place, Faye.
00:19Just act like a desperate Omega in heat.
00:20Kilvan will be disgusted and kick you out, then I'll bring you home.
00:23He was a liar.
00:25One night of madness later, I limped out of the King's estate
00:28and returned to Daemon's study at dawn.
00:30Daemon rushed forward and checked my neck.
00:33My virginity was gone.
00:35I told you to pretend.
00:36Who said you could actually give yourself to him?
00:39Are you that desperate for a knot?
00:41Even from a monster who kills without blinking?
00:44Alpha Daemon, you misunderstand.
00:47The King was quite gentle, actually.
00:50Gentle?
00:51That beast has buried three fated maids
00:53and you're telling me he was gentle while he wrecked you?
00:55I sent you there for the pack's future,
00:57not to actually spread your legs for him.
00:59You're mine.
01:00How dare you let him touch you?
01:03Alpha Daemon,
01:05since the job's done,
01:07about the gold you promised.
01:08I stumbled back.
01:10He pulled a handkerchief from his pocket,
01:12wiped each finger methodically,
01:14then dropped the silk into the fireplace.
01:17Through the fire,
01:18my mind went back to that winter,
01:20when my little brother and I were kicked out off the Beta family.
01:22He'd knelt in the snow for three days,
01:25begging his father to take us as Omegas.
01:28I'll protect them forever.
01:31Even without a title or bond.
01:33Now he'd shoved me into another man's bed
01:35and couldn't even pay me what he'd sworn.
01:37If the lion wasn't so powerful,
01:39if Salisa hadn't been terrified of Killian's reputation
01:42and refused the bond,
01:43I never would have sent you.
01:45Since you only want gold,
01:47here's your reward!
01:48You cheap, Omega!
01:50Take your money and scrub yourself clean.
01:52He turned to leave.
01:53I gripped the cabinet and slowly sank to my knees.
01:56Of course.
01:58A traitor's daughter,
01:59even blood money smells sweet to you.
02:01It did smell sweet.
02:02Because this money would keep my little brother,
02:04Kane, alive.
02:06Ten years ago,
02:07my father brought home a witch.
02:09He disowned us.
02:10The day Mother was imprisoned for treason,
02:12I just turned six.
02:13From that day on,
02:14my heart went cold.
02:16Alpha Daemon,
02:17what about the contraceptive tea?
02:19What?
02:20Afraid you'll carry the king's pup?
02:22Relax,
02:23the healer said your body's too damaged from hard labor.
02:25You'll never bear pups.
02:26So stop worrying about things that'll never happen!
02:28I clutched the gold tight.
02:32I walked to the table,
02:33poured a cup of cold tea
02:34and swallowed it with the cheap painkiller from my pocket,
02:38tilting my head back.
02:39Bitterness spread through my throat.
02:41I didn't care what Daemon thought of me.
02:43As long as Kane survived,
02:45I'd serve as Killian's kept bedmate for as long as possible.
02:49Dawn hadn't broken when the servant dragged me from bed.
02:54Miss Faye,
02:56Alpha Daemon has ordered there's a palace banquet today.
02:59You'll go pretending to be Miss Celeste.
03:01I forced myself upright despite the ache between my legs.
03:05Alpha Killian had me over and over last night.
03:08I let them paint my face with powder and rouge.
03:12Celeste was the pack's precious beta princess.
03:15Daemon's obsession.
03:16Her delicate constitution couldn't handle the tedium of court functions.
03:20Daemon often made me wear her name to these events.
03:22We were similar enough in build.
03:25With an eye mask and careful silence,
03:27no one noticed the switch.
03:30Alpha Killian will be there today.
03:32Behave.
03:33If he sees through the act,
03:35you can collect your mother's corpse from the dungeon.
03:38Mother had been dead in that cell for two weeks.
03:41And Daemon knew it.
03:42I couldn't expose the lie.
03:44Kane still needed medicine money.
03:46Yes.
03:46I lowered my head.
03:48The banquet hall glittered with excess.
03:50I sat beside Daemon, eyes downcast.
03:53Peeling grapes from the plate before me.
03:56A scorching gaze burned into my skin the entire time.
04:01Alpha Daemon,
04:03your pack do hold treasure.
04:05The beta girl may be frail,
04:07but that body,
04:08I find it hauntingly familiar.
04:12Quite intoxicating.
04:17But he could only force a smile and drain his cup.
04:22Useless thing.
04:24After the third round of drinks,
04:26Killian rose to leave.
04:27Passing our table,
04:29his steps slowed.
04:30An emerald pendant slipped from his sleeve,
04:33landing precisely at my feet.
04:35I bent instinctively to retrieve it.
04:37The moment my fingertips touched the crystal,
04:40warmth lingered.
04:42These hands are remarkably skilled.
04:44Your service was exceptional.
04:48Keep the pendant.
04:49Take it home and practice more.
04:54In the carriage home,
04:55Give it here.
04:56my body flinched,
04:58but I didn't dare disobey.
05:00Daemon examined the crystal by lamplight,
05:02then released a derisive laugh.
05:04A Lyman pendant?
05:06Alpha Killian's certainly generous.
05:09Think this is some courting gift?
05:10It's just how he toys with women.
05:12Only someone as shallow and desperate as you
05:15would treat it like treasure.
05:16He flicked his wrist.
05:19No, that's...
05:20Shut up!
05:21It's a filthy rock.
05:23It was contaminating my carriage.
05:24I didn't care about dignity anymore.
05:27Remember this.
05:29You're just a replacement.
05:31Alpha Killian desires the Silvermoon Pax
05:34beat up Princess Celeste.
05:35Not you, Fae.
05:37The moment he got tired of you,
05:39you will return back to my palace.
05:42We reached the estate after midnight.
05:44Before I crossed the Omega Room's threshold,
05:46I heard muffled coughing from inside.
05:50Kane!
05:52My chest tightened.
05:53I pushed through the door.
05:57Sister, it hurts.
06:00The medicine I'd bought was gone.
06:02I searched every pocket.
06:03Besides the few coins Damon had thrown at me,
06:06I had nothing.
06:07I bit down hard
06:08and ran toward the main house.
06:13Alpha Damon, I beg your mercy.
06:16Kane can't hold on much longer.
06:17You promised before
06:18if I went to Alpha Killian's bed as you asked,
06:20you'd keep Kane safe.
06:22Please.
06:24One ginseng root to save his life.
06:25I'll do anything you ask.
06:27Anything at all, without complaint.
06:32Finally, the door opened.
06:41Fae, what hysterics now?
06:44Alpha Damon, my brother's critical.
06:46He needs ginseng to survive.
06:49Please, for everything I've done
06:51as Celeste's stand-up,
06:53save him.
06:54The storehouse does have several roots.
06:57Damon, the healer said
06:59my constitution requires ginseng tea.
07:02Your health comes first, Celeste.
07:03Those roots are meant for you.
07:05Kane's illness is a bottomless pulp.
07:08Ginseng won't save him,
07:09just delay the inevitable.
07:10Alpha Damon,
07:12Miss Celeste needs maintenance,
07:13but my brother is at death's dead.
07:16Celeste's life is precious
07:18beyond your worthless brother's comprehension.
07:21One root?
07:22Every herb in this state
07:24belongs to her if she needs it.
07:25Sister Fae, it's not that I won't help,
07:27but I truly can't go without my toner.
07:30How about this?
07:31I'll have the kitchen save
07:32the used roots for you.
07:33There'll still be some potency left.
07:37That won't be necessary.
07:39If the Silver Moon pack
07:40wouldn't give me a way to live,
07:41someone else would.
07:42But the next day,
07:44as snow fell in thick sheets,
07:46Kane had slipped into unconsciousness.
07:48His breathing barely stirred the air.
07:50I reached out to check his breath.
08:02The lichen pendant Damon had thrown into the sewer,
08:05I'd searched half the night and found nothing.
08:07Now the 500 gold Damon had promised
08:09was Kane's only lifeline.
08:11He'd said if I successfully seduced Killian
08:14into breaking the bond,
08:15he'd pay me and let me go.
08:16For my brother's next breath,
08:18I'd abandoned shame entirely.
08:19Outside the study,
08:21I straightened my spine.
08:23Damon was painting Celeste.
08:24She was holding a vase in her hand.
08:27Alpha Damon,
08:28I need an advance.
08:29100 gold.
08:33100 gold?
08:34He set down his brush,
08:36wiping his hands with deliberate leisure.
08:38What do you need that much for?
08:39You promised me.
08:40500 gold after the job was done.
08:42I'm only asking for 100 now to save a life.
08:45After the job's done?
08:48Alpha Killian hasn't rejected the bond yet, Fae.
08:51You're counting your gold too early.
08:55Besides,
08:56take the money and go where exactly?
08:58Run off with your burden of a brother?
09:01Disappear somewhere I'll never find you?
09:02My heart lurched.
09:04I only want to save my brother.
09:08Celeste's eyes glittered.
09:09She snapped her fingers at a servant.
09:11Dump these two baskets of copper coins
09:13in the snow outside.
09:15The clatter of coins hitting snow
09:16rang sharp and cold.
09:18Thousands of copper pieces
09:20scattered across the white expanse.
09:22Go on then.
09:24Gather as many as you can.
09:26They're all yours.
09:28I looked at Damon.
09:29He didn't stop her.
09:30Waiting for me to break.
09:31Waiting for me to understand
09:32that without him I couldn't even survive.
09:35Fae, if you just stay at the estate
09:36obediently, be my...
09:39I'll make sure your brother gets his medicine.
09:41Why insist on this pointless gold?
09:43I didn't answer.
09:44I turned and plunged into the snow.
09:47Celeste descended the steps slowly.
09:49The toe of her embroidered slipper
09:51deliberately kicked several coins
09:52into a reeking mud puddle.
09:54Oh, dear sister.
09:55The money's dirty now.
09:57Do you still want it?
09:58I didn't hesitate.
09:59Reached into the ice-cold filth
10:01and pulled them out.
10:03Fae!
10:04You were the capital's
10:05most prideful daughter.
10:07Now you're crawling in mud
10:09like a dog for pocket change.
10:10Where's your dignity?
10:12Just ask me.
10:14Just say the word.
10:15This gold is nothing.
10:17Why do you insist on degrading yourself
10:18to spife me?
10:20I ignored him.
10:21Dignity was worth nothing.
10:23If it saved Kane,
10:24I'd be more than a dog.
10:25I'd become a vengeful ghost gladly.
10:28Meltwater soaked through my sleeves.
10:30My fingers turned crimson,
10:31then numb.
10:32But I couldn't stop.
10:34Every copper coin was another thread of hope
10:36for Kane's survival.
10:37Watching me scrabble desperately in the snow,
10:39Damon's knuckles went white against the railing.
10:42This wasn't what he wanted to see.
10:44He wanted me crying and begging.
10:47Not this,
10:48willing to endure any humiliation
10:49just to scrape together enough gold to leave him.
10:53Just when my arms grew heavy with gathered coins,
10:55a dog's snarl erupted.
10:58Damon's vicious hound,
10:59Black Fang,
11:00came out of nowhere.
11:08The sound of Fang's tearing flesh
11:10rang clear and wet,
11:12but only one thought filled my head.
11:13Even if this beast ripped me apart,
11:15I had to hold on to Kane's life.
11:17My coins!
11:18Get off!
11:20I protected the gold clutched to my chest.
11:23The sack tore.
11:24Coins I'd bled to collect
11:25scattered across the snow again.
11:27No, no, no!
11:29Malice flashed in Celeste's eyes.
11:32Black Fang!
11:33Stop!
11:34He moved down and kicked the dog away.
11:35Don't!
11:36The dog's gone mad!
11:37It'll hurt you!
11:38That single moment of hesitation,
11:40and the beast's fangs sank deep into my flesh.
11:43First time,
11:44panic flashed in his eyes,
11:46but when he met my desperate grip on the coin sack,
11:48that panic twisted into rage.
11:51Help me give back the money.
11:54I sobbed,
11:55crawling through snow,
11:56trying to reach those rolling coins.
11:58Sister,
11:59why are you so stubborn?
12:02Damon just wanted you to soften,
12:04but you'd rather fight dogs for beggar's change.
12:10Born with slave bones,
12:12you don't even know how to accept kindness.
12:15Pain dragged me toward darkness,
12:17then sudden hoofbeats thundered outside the gate,
12:20the estate's main door.
12:22Someone had rammed it open.
12:23I forced my eyes open through a film of blood
12:26and saw black armored guards flood the courtyard,
12:28instantly controlling every servant.
12:30The man who dismounted wore a cloak
12:32that billowed like wings.
12:34Alpha Killian.
12:37He ignored Damon's ashen face,
12:40disregarded Celeste's shrieking retreat.
12:42He walked straight toward me.
12:43Those boots that never touched common ground
12:45stepped without hesitation into the muddy snow.
12:48King,
12:49Killian,
12:50why are you here?
12:51Killian didn't spare him a glance.
12:53He bent and lifted me from the snow.
12:56I was covered in filth,
12:57but he didn't care.
12:59His elegant fingers caught a drop of my blood.
13:04For this pitness,
13:05you tore yourself apart?
13:07Hmm?
13:08I shivered in his arms.
13:09He only tightened his hold.
13:11Killian!
13:12This is Silvermoon Pack business!
13:15She's my mate!
13:16I can treat her however I want!
13:18Your mate?
13:20When she was in my bed,
13:21she never mentioned belonging to you.
13:23The words dropped like stones into water.
13:26Silence crashed over the courtyard.
13:30Celeste's eyes went wide with horror.
13:32Damon's face turned corpse pale.
13:34You...
13:36This is too far.
13:37Killian ignored him,
13:39carrying me toward the gate.
13:40Passing the still-snarling hound,
13:42his eyes went arctic.
13:44Steel flashed.
13:45His guard's blade fell.
13:46The beast died instantly.
13:48Hot blood sprayed across Damon and Celeste's snow-white robes.
13:52I buried my face against Killian's chest,
13:54and finally let unconsciousness take me.
13:56When I woke, I lay in an impossibly soft bed.
13:59A roaring fire filled the room with warmth.
14:02I reached instinctively for my chest.
14:05Empty.
14:05I sat up in panic.
14:10My money!
14:13Don't move.
14:15Warm hands pressed me back down.
14:22Killian sat at the bedside,
14:24holding a bowl of black medicinal brew.
14:26He set it aside and pulled a silk purse from his sleeve.
14:29Five hundred gold potes.
14:31Enough?
14:31I stared blankly at the purse.
14:34Kane's already at the healing house,
14:35sustained with the finest ginseng.
14:37The healer says he's no longer critical.
14:40He seemed to know exactly what I feared,
14:42settling my heart with one sentence.
14:46No more crying.
14:48No one will dare hurt you again.
14:50I stayed in Killian's estate for three days recovering.
14:53Those three days, he treated me with impossible gentleness.
14:56So gentle, I began to believe the delusion that I was someone he'd cherished for years.
15:01But I knew the truth.
15:02This was all temporary.
15:04He was the realm's most powerful lichen king.
15:06I was a disgraced traitor's daughter.
15:08We lived in different worlds.
15:09On the fourth, I insisted on seeing Kane at the healing house.
15:13Killian couldn't refuse me, so he accompanied me.
15:16The carriage stopped outside the Springwood healing house.
15:19I jumped down before it fully stopped, rushing into the hall.
15:23Healer, my brother, how is he?
15:25Is he awake?
15:26Miss Faye, you...
15:31You...
15:31Dread pulled cold in my stomach.
15:35I ran to the back room.
15:37The bed was empty except for a rolled grass mat.
15:45Where's Kane?
15:47Where's my brother?
15:51He arrived too late.
15:54A thin coffin rested there.
15:56His body was already ruined.
16:00The shock that night.
16:02He passed before dawn.
16:04My vision blurred until only that coffin remained in focus.
16:09Kane lay still inside.
16:11Kane.
16:16Dead.
16:18How could he be dead?
16:22Killian said he was stable, out of danger.
16:25Reading my confusion, the healer sighed.
16:27Your brother was beyond saving when he arrived.
16:29Alpha Killian feared the shock would kill you too in your wounded state.
16:32He suppressed the news and told me to let you recover first.
16:36I turned to look at Killian.
16:37He stood in shadow and lamplight, offering no defense.
16:41I opened my mouth.
16:43Accusations caught in my throat.
16:44Emerging as a broken sob instead.
16:46If Daemon hadn't delayed.
16:48If Celeste hadn't set her dog on me.
16:50If not for that entire twisted farce.
16:53My Kane should have lived.
16:55Daemon!
16:56Celeste!
16:57That night I kept vigil in the morning hall, refusing to leave.
17:01Killian stayed beside me the entire time, shielding me from wind and snow.
17:05The next morning, Daemon came.
17:07He brought Celeste, followed by servants carrying boxes.
17:11Faye, I heard about your brother.
17:13I came to pay respects.
17:16Sister Faye, please accept our condolences.
17:19These boxes have gold and fabric, a small token of our sympathy.
17:24Sympathy?
17:26Once I'd begged like a dog for scraps.
17:29Now that my brother was dead, money came freely.
17:34What do you think you're doing?
17:36I pointed at the door.
17:37Get out!
17:38Take your filthy gold and get out!
17:42Celeste started.
17:43Faye, don't be ungrateful.
17:45Daemon, Celeste, this blood debt, I see it.
17:48I remember it.
17:49As long as I breathe, we're not done.
17:51For the first time, a flicker of fear flashed before their eyes.
17:57Get the fuck out!
17:59Get the fuck out!
17:59Get the fuck out!
17:59Get the fuck out!
