00:00Back to the moment the moon goddess marked me as his.
00:02Damien's hand was around my throat, just like before.
00:05Same fury, same cold gold eyes.
00:07Why would the moon goddess choose you as my Luna?
00:09I looked up at him.
00:10Come.
00:11Don't worry.
00:12I'll break the bond myself.
00:14Don't play games with me.
00:16The moon goddess only pairs a wolf once.
00:18Break the bond and that's it, no second mate.
00:20Ever.
00:21Unless, you're planning to crawl to that freak from the snowfield pack?
00:24The snowfield pack.
00:26They were new, but no one called them small anymore.
00:28In the span of a few years they had risen from nothing, expanding fast and ruthlessly across the northern tundra,
00:33until every established pack had been forced to take notice.
00:36Their alpha was a man named Ethan, and the story that followed his name was one wolf's told in lowered
00:41voices.
00:41On the day he came of age, the moon goddess had given him nothing.
00:45No bond.
00:45No Luna.
00:46No mate.
00:47Abandoned, people said.
00:48Passed over.
00:49Broken.
00:49Now his pack had arrived at our territory without warning, bearing gifts no one could ignore, and a single request.
00:55They wanted a mate for their alpha.
00:56The problem was simple.
00:57The snowfield territory was exactly what its name promised.
01:00Ice, wind, endless white.
01:02No wolf raised in the warmth of the forest wanted to go there.
01:05I looked at Damien's face, that easy contempt, like I was something he'd already dismissed.
01:09The pain of it moved through me sharp and familiar, stealing the air from my lungs.
01:13I let myself feel it.
01:14Then I let it go.
01:15Just wait.
01:16I'll make sure you end up with Sophia.
01:19I went deep into the forest, past the place where the trees stopped letting in light.
01:23The witch found me before I found her.
01:24She listened to what I wanted.
01:26I can break the bond between you and Damien, but the pain will be unlike anything you've
01:30felt before.
01:31Bad enough to make you wish you hadn't survived it.
01:33Nothing could hurt more than staying.
01:34Please, help me.
01:37The witch was quiet for a long moment.
01:38Then she reached into the folds of her cloak and produced a ring.
01:41One drop of blood from each wolf you love most, yours and his.
01:46When the ring has both, the bond will break.
01:49The wolf I loved most was Damien.
01:50The wolf Damien loved most was Sophia.
01:52If I hurt Sophia to get her blood, Damien might actually kill me.
01:56I rode back to the pack anyway.
01:57I found Damien and held the ring out before he could speak.
02:00All you have to do is give me a drop of your blood and Sophia's.
02:06Then the bond.
02:07He knocked it out of my hand.
02:08I watched it arc through the air and disappear into the lake.
02:11Are you ever going to stop?
02:13Heart's blood?
02:14Seriously, Iris?
02:15Why not just ask us both to die and be done with it?
02:17And why would the witch need Sophia's blood?
02:19The bond is between us.
02:21Try harder if you're gonna lie to my face.
02:23Something inside my chest went very cold.
02:25My hands dropped to my sides.
02:26I couldn't feel them anymore.
02:27Because the ring needs blood from whoever each of us loves most.
02:31I love you, you love Sophia.
02:33What a ridiculous excuse.
02:35Damien didn't believe a word of it.
02:36I stopped trying to make him.
02:38I turned and jumped into the lake.
02:39The cold had me like a wall.
02:41I forced my eyes open underwater and searched the dark, rocky bottom until my fingers closed
02:45around something small and hard.
02:46The ring.
02:47Before I could surface on my own, hands grabbed me, strong, furious, and hauled me up onto
02:51the bank.
02:52Damien was soaked.
02:53His chest was heaving.
02:54What is wrong with you?
02:56Are you actually insane?
02:58The thing that always confused me.
03:00The way he moved like he cared.
03:01Like I was something worth saving.
03:03Every time, it made me wonder.
03:04Every time, Sophia existed.
03:06And the wondering stopped.
03:07I opened my hand.
03:08The ring sat in my palm.
03:09Still cold from the lake.
03:11I started to cry.
03:12I wasn't sure if it was the pain or the relief.
03:14Maybe both.
03:15Damien looked at me like I was something he couldn't solve.
03:17Then he turned and walked away.
03:18That left me with only one option.
03:20I went to find Sophia.
03:21Sophia and I had never made sense together.
03:23Not in this life.
03:24Not in the last one.
03:25She was prettier than me.
03:27Sharper than me.
03:27Easier to love than me.
03:29When we walked into a room together.
03:30Every eye found her first.
03:32Nobody ever had to think about it.
03:33When I came to her room, she didn't look up.
03:35I can make you Damien's Luna.
03:37But I need something from you first.
03:39That got her attention.
03:40What?
03:41Your blood.
03:43You might as well just ask to kill me.
03:46I'm not trying to hurt you.
03:48Damien and I have a bond.
03:49If I break it, he's free.
03:51You'd be free to be with him properly.
03:53No bond between us and the wave.
03:54She finally looked at me.
03:55Her eyes were sharp.
03:56Why would you do that?
03:58Everyone in this pack knows you've been in love with Damien since we were children.
04:02So why would you just...
04:04Give him up?
04:06Give him to me?
04:07I didn't have a good answer.
04:09Fine.
04:10I'll call the healer.
04:11Don't try anything stupid.
04:12The healer came.
04:13The needle was ready.
04:14The door came off its hinges.
04:16Damien.
04:16He took in the scene in half a second.
04:18And his face did something I'd never seen before.
04:20He shoved the healer out of the way.
04:22Pulled off his jacket and wrapped it around Sophia's shoulders in one motion.
04:26Sophia.
04:26His voice had dropped to something almost unrecognizable.
04:29Are you okay?
04:30Did she hurt you?
04:31Sophia's eyes went glassy.
04:33She put one hand against his chest and pushed gently.
04:36You shouldn't have come.
04:38How could I not come?
04:40You actually believed her?
04:42You could have died, Sophia.
04:43Do you understand that?
04:45If it meant being with you, it would have been worth trying.
04:50One tear slid from the corner of her eye.
04:52Just one.
04:52It was enough.
04:53Damien pulled her into his arms.
04:55Held her the way you hold something you thought you'd lost.
04:57I had never seen him love someone before.
04:59Not like this.
05:00Not with his whole body.
05:01I was still standing in the corner.
05:03I hadn't moved.
05:04Then Damien looked at me.
05:05He crossed the room and shoved me.
05:06Hard.
05:07My back hit the pillar and I went down.
05:08He crouched down and grabbed the front of my shirt.
05:11You wanna come after someone?
05:12Come after me.
05:13Leave Sophia out of it.
05:14I knew that voice.
05:15I knew those words.
05:16He used to say them to other people.
05:18Anyone who came for me.
05:19Anyone who got too close.
05:21He'd step in front of me and say exactly this.
05:23Now I was the other people.
05:24I blinked back the tears.
05:26Pried his fingers off my shirt one by one.
05:28Why won't you believe me?
05:29Just once.
05:31The witch told me how to do this.
05:34It has to be Sophia's blood because the ring needs blood from whoever each of us loves most.
05:39That's the rule.
05:40Not mine.
05:41How am I supposed to believe anything you say?
05:43The bond is between us.
05:45So why does Sophia have anything to do with it?
05:48Stop.
05:49I'm done listening.
05:50I exhaled.
05:51Pressed my fist against my side.
05:53There was nothing left to say that he would hear.
05:55I looked out.
05:55Sophia was watching me from across the room.
05:58And she was smiling.
05:59She'd done it on purpose.
06:00Called him here.
06:01Knowing exactly what would happen.
06:02And I had trusted her.
06:03I wouldn't make that mistake again.
06:05I moved.
06:05I was across the room before anyone could react.
06:08Knife out.
06:08Blade at Sophia's throat.
06:09Iris.
06:10She is your sister.
06:12Put it down.
06:13No.
06:15You hate me that much.
06:16I didn't answer her.
06:17I pulled the bloodied needle from my pocket and threw it to Damien.
06:20Your blood.
06:22Give me your blood and I'll let her go.
06:24He looked at me for one long moment.
06:26Then he exposed his chest.
06:27Fine.
06:29Remember what you promised.
06:32Dark red moved slowly through the hollow tube.
06:35I turned away.
06:35I couldn't watch it.
06:36Once the bond broke, he would have everything he wanted.
06:39And we would have nothing left between us at all.
06:41Let her go now.
06:43I looked away.
06:44Picked up the needle from the table.
06:45Pressed it to Sophia's chest and pushed.
06:47Iris.
06:48I am your sister.
06:51Damien help me.
06:52Stop.
06:53Touch her again and I will never.
06:55Do you hear me?
06:57Never.
06:57Be with you.
06:58Not in this life.
07:00Not in any life.
07:02The blood hit the ring.
07:03I let Sophia go.
07:04Added Damien's blood.
07:05He was already at her side.
07:07Sophia.
07:08Are you okay?
07:09Let me see.
07:10She was crying quietly against his chest.
07:13Then she looked at me over his shoulder.
07:14Why are you doing this to me?
07:16Damien turned.
07:17His claws were out.
07:18He drove them into my chest.
07:19The pain was enormous.
07:20Blood came.
07:21More than Sophia's had.
07:22Enough that I felt it moving down my ribs.
07:24Soaking through my shirt.
07:25He didn't look at me.
07:26Not once.
07:27You deserve that.
07:28He turned back to the healer.
07:30Sophia first.
07:31Every cut.
07:32Every mark.
07:33I don't want her to carry a single scar.
07:35I made it out of the room.
07:36That was as far as I got.
07:38The pain hit without warning.
07:39Not from the wound.
07:40But from somewhere deeper.
07:41Somewhere the witch had warned me about.
07:43I felt something dark rise in my throat and I couldn't stop it.
07:46Black blood.
07:46The bond breaking.
07:47The ground disappeared.
07:48I hit the lake before I understood what had happened.
07:50The cold swallowed me whole.
07:52I tried to scream and couldn't.
07:53The water took the sound before it left my throat.
07:55I felt my body stopping.
07:57Felt the edges of everything going soft and dark.
07:59Then something caught my wrist.
08:00Hard.
08:01Certain.
08:01Like it had no intention of letting go.
08:03He pulled me up from the bottom of the lake like I weighed nothing.
08:06I had never seen him before.
08:07He was taller than Damien.
08:09Broader.
08:09The kind of build that came from years of surviving somewhere brutal.
08:12A long scar ran down the center of his chest.
08:14Pale and old.
08:15His hair was the color of moonlight.
08:16How did you let this happen?
08:20If I hadn't come.
08:21You would have died down there.
08:23Do you understand that?
08:25Thank you Kate.
08:29He stared at me.
08:30Something moved across his face that I didn't have a name for.
08:33Then he seemed to make a decision.
08:35Ethan.
08:37My name is Ethan.
08:38Ethan stayed.
08:39I don't know if I asked him to or if he simply decided.
08:42Either way.
08:42He was there when I woke.
08:43And the day after.
08:44And the day after that.
08:45Until the wound closed and the bond sickness passed and I could breathe without it hurting.
08:49On the morning I finally felt like myself again.
08:52Damien came.
08:52He brought a thermos of soup.
08:54My favorite.
08:54The kind I only ever wanted when I was sick.
08:56He sat beside the bed and picked up the spoon the way he used to.
09:00Back when things between us were different.
09:01I didn't open my mouth.
09:03He set the spoon down.
09:04The bond is broken.
09:05I was wrong about you.
09:07Sophia hasn't gotten out of bed since that day.
09:09She's still shaken.
09:10Now that you're better.
09:11Go apologize to her.
09:13And if I don't?
09:15Then you're not welcome in this pack anymore.
09:19The snowfield alpha is looking for a luna.
09:22If you won't apologize go be his.
09:24We've both been left behind by the moon goddess.
09:26We'd make a perfect pair.
09:27Something shifted in my chest.
09:29Not breaking.
09:30Something quieter than that.
09:31The last small thing I've been holding on to.
09:33Finally letting go.
09:34Alright I'll go.
09:36Damien.
09:37Damien.
09:38Are you even listening to me?
09:40What is wrong with you?
09:41He blinked.
09:42Came back.
09:43He'd been thinking about Iris.
09:44The way she'd looked this morning.
09:46Thinner than before.
09:47He'd done that.
09:47He pushed the thought down and pressed his lips to the top of Sophia's hair.
09:51When Iris comes to apologize.
09:52Give her some of your medicine.
09:54For the wound.
09:55Why should I?
09:56That's mine.
09:57You're the older sister.
09:59And once you're my luna.
10:00You'll have all the medicine you could ever want.
10:02This is nothing.
10:04Fine.
10:05Just this once.
10:06They waited.
10:06The afternoon went.
10:07The light changed.
10:08The room got dark.
10:09Iris didn't come.
10:10Sophia was crying by the time Damien called for Jack.
10:13Jack!
10:14She never respected me.
10:16Not once.
10:17Not ever.
10:18Go get Iris.
10:20Bring her here.
10:21If she won't come willingly, drag her.
10:24Jack didn't move.
10:25Is there a problem?
10:28Alpha.
10:29Iris left this morning.
10:31She went with the snowfield pack.
