03:25Mrs. Hastings, we meet again.
03:27Who the hell are you guys?
03:28Watch your mouth talking to our boss?
03:30Ever heard of the Hong Gang?
03:32I'm just a regular businessman now.
03:34You're Damon?
03:35That's right.
03:36I'm here to tell you.
03:37I want your daughter.
03:39What does that mean?
03:40It means I'm going to marry her, father-in-law.
03:43I am not your father-in-law.
03:45How did their family get mixed up with a werewolf?
03:48That werewolf doesn't look like a good guy.
03:50Go away!
03:53You must be joking!
03:54My daughter will never marry a werewolf!
03:57I'm not joking.
03:59I'm marrying her no matter what.
04:01In your dreams!
04:03Are you going to invite me in for a chat?
04:07Father-in-law.
04:10Come in.
04:18I'm a cop!
04:19I will never marry my daughter off to a gangster!
04:22A cop?
04:24Then you should be even more eager to marry her to me.
04:31Look at this place.
04:32It's a dump.
04:33How much do you make a month as a cop?
04:35Can you even give her a decent life?
04:38But don't worry.
04:39Marry her to me, and I'll make your whole family rich overnight.
04:45Over my dead body!
04:47Marriage is not a game.
04:48You don't even know my daughter.
04:50Besides, you're different species.
04:52How can you even think about this?
04:53Mother-in-law, if I want to, everyone in Hansham is transparent to me.
04:58And there's no bad blood between werewolves and vampires anymore.
05:03Then you should know my family has been cops for three generations!
05:07My son died taking down a werewolf gang!
05:11How dare you make such an outrageous demand!
05:14You got it wrong.
05:16This isn't a demand.
05:18It's a notice.
05:20I'll come pick you up in a few days.
05:24Get ready.
05:27I'm already engaged.
05:32Oh yeah?
05:33That'll be cancelled soon.
05:36Serena!
05:37Caleb!
05:44This is your fiancé?
05:46Who the hell are you?
05:47As of today, you are single.
05:51That's what happened.
05:53I had no idea he was Damon.
05:58You two need to get married as soon as possible.
06:00I agree.
06:03Will that work?
06:04It's Damon we're talking about.
06:06So what?
06:07I don't believe he'd dare kidnap someone right under a cop's nose.
06:13Don't worry, Serena.
06:15I'll protect you.
06:27You look even more charming
06:30when you're working.
06:31You look even more charming when you're working.
06:39What the hell do you want?
06:41I already know you very well.
06:43And I think it's time my fiancé got to know me too.
06:47Three years ago, you were at war with the Tiger Gang.
06:50My brother.
06:52Andrew died on the spot.
06:54And my dad got shot in the leg.
06:56If you really knew me...
06:58How dare you even stand here?
07:03Andrew's death was an accident.
07:07Since I took over the family, we haven't done anything illegal.
07:10You think that will change the past?
07:12Mrs. Hastings,
07:13the largest real estate,
07:15telecom,
07:15and oil companies in this city are all mine.
07:19Do you know how many people count on me?
07:23Do you think that makes you a philanthropist?
07:29Mr. Vitarelli!
07:30Thank you so much for your generous donation to our medical fund.
07:35You are such a philanthropist.
07:37This was all...
07:39Mrs. Hastings' idea.
07:40She's deeply passionate about healthcare.
07:44You should give her a raise.
07:45Sure!
07:46A five-fold raise!
07:50Sir, may I borrow Mrs. Hastings for half a day?
07:54No problem at all!
07:57I'm busy.
08:02Serena, you're free to go.
08:06Sir!
08:07You'll be getting a new hospital ring.
08:09Oh, thank you so much!
08:16Put me down!
08:18Put me down!
08:19Put me down!
08:20Put me down!
08:22Hope to see you again!
08:24Put me down right now!
08:27Put me down!
08:31What the hell are you doing?
08:32You're insane!
08:40Don't test my patience.
08:41You're insane!
08:47I have a gift for you.
08:49You're such a ę°€ě§€ęł .
08:49-
08:49...
09:08Do you like it?
09:11You're invading my privacy!
09:22Everything about you is mine.
09:27And everything I have is yours.
09:30See that?
09:31All those buildings belong to me.
09:34If you ask, I'll give them all to you.
09:40But if you try to run, I swear I'll scour the city to find you.
09:56You think you can buy everything, including love.
10:01As long as I'm rich enough.
10:02Mr. Vitarelli, you are rich.
10:05But I pity you.
10:07Because in love, you're actually quite poor.
10:10Do you know what you're saying?
10:12I'm aware.
10:14You repulse me.
10:21Speak.
10:31What was so urgent that you had to call me back?
10:33Damon!
10:34Sophia is back in the country!
10:36Sophia?
10:37Who is that?
10:40You met her before, dear.
10:41She's my niece.
10:43Is that so?
10:44I don't really remember.
10:52Damon, you're not getting any younger.
10:54Your father cared most about your marriage before he passed.
10:57Sophia comes from a good family and has a nice personality.
11:01If you two settle down soon, I can finally have an explanation-
11:04Mom, I already have someone I want to marry.
11:08What?
11:10Oh?
11:11Really?
11:13Is…
11:13Which family is she from?
11:16When will you bring her back to meet us?
11:18On the wedding day, you'll find out.
11:30Mom!
11:31Damon isn't your biological son after all.
11:33If he doesn't marry Sophia, won't our family's property be taken advantage of by an outsider?
11:36Shh!
11:36Be quiet!
11:37Do you want everyone to hear you?
11:44First, go find out who the woman he's talking about is.
11:47I don't believe we can't ruin this marriage.
11:54Are you insane?
11:56Do you know who that is?
11:57Damon, the werewolf alpha who runs this entire city!
12:02I'm not kidding.
12:03I have to marry Serena.
12:05Do you want to get us killed?!
12:07Once I'm married to Serena, what can he do?
12:09This is a law-based society.
12:12Why are you so stubborn?
12:16Mom, Serena and I grew up together.
12:18She needs me now.
12:20I have to marry her.
12:22Come back!
12:25This woman?
12:26She could be your plaything!
12:28How can you marry her?
12:30Are you insane?!
12:32Since when do you have a say in my affairs?
12:36But she has no background, and she's a vampire!
12:41If you marry her, the entire Vitorecki family will be a laughing stock!
12:50I am her background.
12:52Who dares laugh at her?
13:00Who is bold enough to laugh at her?
13:26What the hell is wrong with you?!
13:27It's the middle of the night!
13:28Some people are trying to sleep!
13:34What the hell is wrong with you?!
13:35It's the middle of the night!
13:38What the hell do you want?!
13:42Oh!
13:45Hold still.
13:54Why didn't you answer my call?
13:55I didn't hear it.
13:59Has anyone ever told you you suck at lying?
14:03What the hell do you want?!
14:05I'm engaged!
14:06Stop harassing me!
14:08Your fiancé?
14:09He's not even worth my time!
14:10At least he doesn't make me a neighborhood joke!
14:16Marry me.
14:17I'll make sure no one dares disrespect you.
14:19Never!
14:21I love my fiancé and I'll never love you.
14:37It doesn't matter.
14:39I love you.
14:40That's enough.
14:45You didn't like the gifts I sent you last time.
14:48I picked out some new ones.
14:50I was dead.
14:51I can't lie!
14:55I can't believe it!
14:56I can't believe it!
15:00Boss.
15:01Here.
15:09Not everyone can be bought with money.
15:13Boss.
15:14Should I bring her back?
15:15No.
15:16Miss Hastings has a fiancé.
15:17What if they get married behind your back?
15:24Whoever dares to marry my woman,
15:26his whole family will be run out of this city.
15:32I love you.
15:46I'm putting Serena in your hands.
15:48Take good care of her.
15:56Look at them.
15:57What a perfect match.
15:59This song you taught me?
16:00I've played it 2,000 times.
16:03I dreamed of playing it for you on our wedding day.
16:05Today, that dream has finally come true.
16:24Freeze!
16:25Don't fucking move!
16:38Who the fuck gave you the balls to take my woman?
16:55Who the fuck gave you the balls to take my woman?
17:14I stood there and watched me choke to death.
17:18everyone in the pack said i was the saddest woman alive i was alpha dominic's lowest ranking omega
17:24mate and the least wanted the day i gave birth luna victoria took my son from me before i'd
17:31even held him properly i didn't fight her victoria was the luna powerful respected my son would have
17:40a better life with her than he ever would with me years later a pack of rogues attacked our
17:46territory i threw myself in front of dominic the slash meant for his throat tore across my back
17:52instead he said i had earned a reward i could choose one of his sons raise him myself i chose
18:00logan my blood my child i raised him for 20 years and on the night he was named alpha air
18:07he walked
18:08into my room carrying a glass of wine laced with wolfsbane i couldn't move the poison paralyzed me
18:15my wolf hauled inside me fought like hell but it couldn't save me logan stood over me and watched
18:22foam spill from my mouth his eyes were cold if you'd left me with luna victoria i'd already be air
18:29all you ever did was drag me down the last thing i saw was his face no guilt no hesitation
18:36just
18:37disgust then everything went black when i opened my eyes again i was standing in the great hall
18:45same stone walls same firelight same five boys lined up in front of the alpha's chair alpha dominic sat
18:53above them selaine you saved my life you may choose one of my sons to raise my heart slammed i
19:02looked at
19:03the line logan stood first dressed in the fine clothes victoria had picked for him that look in
19:09his eyes impatience barely hidden last time i was so happy i missed the look in his eyes now it
19:18was
19:18impossible to miss my stomach turned i swallowed the nausea and forced myself to look past him
19:25past the second son past the third at the end of the line below the steps stood a boy no
19:32one
19:32looked at finn head down kyle the fourth son his mother lyra had been executed for breaking pack law
19:42after that no one wanted him the servant said he was cursed he was treated worse than the lowest omega
19:49in the manor thrown away hated just for being there i knew that feeling too well i took a breath
19:57raised my hand pointed straight at him i want him the hall went dead silent every head turned toward me
20:05like i'd lost my mind alpha dominic stared at me for a long moment then he let out a short
20:11breath
20:12almost a laugh kyle fine he's quiet you're steady that should work take good care of him right there in
20:23the
20:23hall he raised me to a beta ranking mate small promotion still more than i'd gotten in six years
20:30but i knew the truth he wasn't rewarding me he was relieved i picked the son no one wanted
20:38when the meeting ended i walked over to kyle he was still standing there with his head down
20:43like he still didn't believe i meant him
20:53i took him back to birch cabin my place on the far edge of the pakistate
20:58a tiny wooden cabin two rooms a fireplace that smoked every time the wind blew in
21:05not much but it was mine
21:11kyle this is your home now i'll take care of you he didn't answer but when i turned to leave
21:20his fingers caught my sleeve tight kyle wasn't dark and difficult like people said he was quiet
21:29so quiet sometimes i forgot he was even in the room i didn't mind in this life i didn't want
21:37power
21:37i didn't want the alpha's favor i just wanted to stay out of trouble raise this boy and die peacefully
21:45when i got old if he came to see me once in a while that would be enough every day
21:51kyle went to the
21:52training yard with the other boys combat in the morning lessons in the afternoon one day i baked
22:00a batch of cookies and took them over i spotted him right away he was sitting alone under a big
22:06oak
22:06tree reading across the yard logan kicked a ball with the other boys around him like planets around
22:13the sun logan had grown up at luna victoria's side best clothes best food best of everything
22:20every child in the pack knew which side to stand on last time i dragged him away from all of
22:27it
22:27made him follow a nobody omega mother no wonder he hated me i sat down beside kyle and set the
22:34box on
22:34the stone bench he looked up a flicker of surprise crossed his face hungry i opened the lid they're
22:42fresh still warm kyle started to speak but a sharp voice cut him off why are you here again logan
22:50walked over looking at the cookies like they were trash the pack kitchen feeds strays better than
22:56that stop coming here and embarrassing yourself before i could speak kyle stood up he stepped
23:02between us logan she's your mother you can't talk to her like that logan let out a mean little laugh
23:10my mother is luna victoria this woman is nothing he flicked a hand at the cookie box take your garbage
23:17and
23:17go stop bothering me i pulled kyle behind me you've got that wrong i'm kyle's mother these cookies are for
23:27kyle i bent down picked one up and held it out to kyle here try one logan's face froze he'd
23:36never imagined
23:37i'd choose kyle over him kyle took a bite a small smile touched his mouth it's good mom thank you
23:44i smiled back good i'll make more tomorrow then i looked at the boys behind logan you boys want one
23:53they were six at that age a cookie is a cookie two of them were already reaching out don't touch
24:00it
24:00logan slapped their hands away it's garbage the kitchen throws out better food than this only losers
24:07with no taste would eat that then he glared at me good you picked him don't come crawling back
24:14when you regret it i looked at logan red-faced and furious trying to act like he didn't care
24:21i almost laughed i promise kyle is my only son everything i have goes to him logan went pale
24:31he stomped off and yelled at the others what are you staring at move he ran off the other boys
24:38scrambled after him that night i tucked kyle into bed i thought he was asleep then he spoke mom tomorrow
24:47after training can you bring cookies again something in me melted i will the day after every day
24:57kyle smiled for real then went to sleep the next afternoon i brought cookies to the yard again but
25:06the place was too quiet then i saw it kyle stood by the lake four pack guards had him boxed
25:13in logan sat
25:14on a rock above them hey little brother he pointed at the cold gray water my ball fell in go
25:23get it
25:24the lake wasn't deep but it was late fall that water cut like ice kyle said nothing he didn't move
25:33logan's smile vanished like a spoiled kid hearing no for the first time he jumped off the rock and
25:40yards turned toward the trees at the exact same time like they'd seen nothing i didn't think i dropped
25:47the cookies and jumped in the cold hit me like a wall my muscles locked up my legs
25:53went numb around kyle's shaking body you pushed him he's your brother what the hell is wrong with you
26:20listening to the ambiguous moans and faint running water over the phone
26:24i smiled bitterly my husband ethan was so cold-blooded but he had no idea the dead weren't
26:30my parents they were his a snake attack at the campsite left his entire family clinging to life
26:35only his company had the specific anti-venom i called him countless times he hung up every single
26:42one the laid treatment killed them all i stared at the five bodies behind me sighed by the time i
26:47got
26:47to the hospital ethan's entire family was already on the verge of death the doctor pulled me aside
26:52this species of snake is extremely rare the only facility with the specific anti-venom
26:58is your husband's company i called ethan like crazy he rejected every single call on the hundredth
27:05try he finally answered it's sophia's birthday tonight i'm spending it with her stop being so
27:11paranoid i kept thinking about his family in the er i swallowed every question burning in my throat and
27:17said quickly your mom your dad your sister they were all bitten the hospital doesn't have this
27:22antivenom your company does please bring it now one vial costs over a hundred grand have some self
27:27respect sienna your whole family gets bitten and you come crying to me what am i your personal bank
27:33take a good hard look at yourself he hung up without mercy then blocked me i sat frozen in a
27:39hospital
27:39chair i couldn't make myself believe those words had just come out of my husband's mouth
27:43he probably didn't even have the patience to listen to what i was saying then my phone buzzed
27:48suddenly a chanel boutique alert popped up the limited birthday bag my parents had reserved
27:53nearly a million dollars in value just picked up by my husband i didn't even have to guess that bag
27:58was on sophia's arm right now stealing my things to give to the woman he loved he'd done it so
28:04many
28:04times every time i said something he'd roll his eyes you're married walking around with a bag like

28:28typing
28:29a message to the boutique when ethan posted on instagram the most expensive bag for the most important
28:34person tonight belongs to us sophia's post followed seconds later my night promised to always stay
28:40your medicine didn't just save my family it saved my heart the photo the two of them pressed close
28:46smiling a vial of anti-venom raised in her hand like a trophy while ethan was spending lavishly on
28:52sophia his own family was waiting to die the er doors slid open the doctor walked out mask already

29:16messaged the boutique i never came in to pick anything up please contact the police the doctor
29:20had mentioned this particular snake was nearly extinct in the country because of that no hospital
29:26stalked the anti-venom a little too convenient a near extinct snake in their tent five people dead
29:32the police took it seriously and moved fast they traced it quickly someone had bulk ordered live
29:38snakes online and released them at the campsite the suspects were sophia's parents i hoped ethan
29:43wouldn't cry too ugly when he found out ma'am we have a clear picture of what happened but both
29:47suspects are currently hospitalized we can't bring them in for questioning just yet now i knew why sophia
29:53was holding the serum in that picture i kept my face blank but the venom's already been treated
29:57nothing stopping you from questioning them now he gave me a long look clearly wondering how i knew
30:02but didn't push i must have looked too hollowed out we'll get to the truth after he left i filed
30:07a civil

31:23accident and she is on the verge of collapse she needs someone to accompany her i laughed so he thought
31:28it was my family i'd been planning to give his parents a proper burial as soon as possible instead
31:33i ordered five industrial freezer units per ethan's request i sent his entire family to his company
31:39i'd been home barely 10 minutes when ethan burst in and slapped me across the face sophia's hysterical her
31:46parents just got out of surgery and you're already suing them do you even have a conscience
31:50at least they're alive the people their snakes killed are still lying in those freezers something
31:55flickered in ethan's eyes that was my anti-venom i give it to whoever i want your parents had no
32:01business going camping they got bitten that's on them sophia's parents are sitting in a hospital being
32:08questioned by detectives because of your lawsuit can't you show a little mercy to the living maybe your
32:15parents getting bitten was karma for you being so cold-hearted maybe this was just your parents
32:20fate if it wasn't a snake something else would have taken them out your whole family is gone now
32:27i'm all you have left don't be ungrateful sienna i know you're hurting but the dead are gone
32:35the living have to keep going sophia is willing to offer compensation i'll top it up a million dollars
32:43total that's enough isn't it he said it like he was talking about the weather five lives in their
32:48eyes worth a million dollars ethan was spoiled rotten by his parents his whole life thinking
32:53about the moment he'd open those freezers and see their faces i couldn't help but wear a sorrowful smile
32:59what's so funny stop playing games will you agree to my terms ethan didn't have the patience to let
33:04me finish after all i wiped the corner of my eye still smiling okay transfer it then payment received
33:09one million dollars ethan had covered the rest almost certainly every dollar of liquid cash his
33:15company had left he watched me accept it i should tell you this morning i signed a formal letter of
33:20non-prosecution on your behalf as your husband sophia's parents are already off the hook you should
33:25be thanking sophia for being so generous without her you wouldn't have seen a dime now go tell the
33:30police the theft report was a mistake i reached into the nightstand drawer and pulled out the divorce
33:35agreement i'd drawn up that morning sign it return my bag we're done or i come after you too you're
33:41divorcing me over this i could see the calculation behind the rage he needed my father's connections
33:46but he also thought my father was dead and no longer of any use to him called after him checked
33:52his signature carefully everything in order ethan there's a waiting period we're technically still
33:58married come with me to your company say goodbye to your family one last time we arrived at his
34:04company together i was certain ethan's mind was on sophia and he still hadn't heard a word i said
34:09the basement ran cold the chill hit me the moment i stepped in five bodies lay in a row covered
34:16in
34:16white sheet my company is not a dump mom dad i'm so sorry and ava marcus what the are you
34:23talking
34:23about say it again if i'm lying i said go look for yourself he stood there for a long moment
34:31then he
34:32moved toward the nearest stretcher slowly his hands were shaking so badly he could barely grip the sheep
34:40so
34:58mafia's tradition whoever gives me an orchid marries me i stood in the hall with 11 other men waiting to
35:04be
35:04chosen no orchid tonight i'd be forced to marriage her in new york rumors said she burned through a new
35:09guy every single night one night one man then gone i had only one way out charlotte we grew up
35:17together
35:18she was the chase family heir and i was a casino mogul's illegitimate son in this city only she dared
35:23give me that flower last night i'd asked her for a fake marriage three years was enough to build something
35:28for myself after that she could love whoever she wanted she'd said yes now she smiled and walked
35:34toward me i let out my hand then she pressed her orchid into tyler's hands instead i stood frozen
35:47let tyler have his moment he's never had one don't worry no one's arranging anything for you while i'm
35:53walking around i watched tyler take her arm they looked like a couple i stood alone she came back
35:59with champagne laughing these people honestly i told them to save you at least one flower
36:05i looked at the girl i'd grown up beside do you understand what this gala actually is she didn't
36:10answer charlotte was the only one who would have chosen me she chose someone else the room kept moving
36:16i felt very still it was over charlotte's expression shifted a faint flicker of guilt crossing her face
36:22she waved tyler off look you're used to these events but tyler's never had anything like this
36:28i just wanted to give him one good night consider it a favor from me you're not really upset are
36:33you

36:38him one memory worth keeping ethan i'm sorry if i got in the way don't be angry at charlotte i
36:42begged
36:43her to charlotte caught tyler's awkward expression and her eyes cooled slightly ethan it's one flower
36:47i'll give you another one you're more of a rose anyway getting worked up over one orchid isn't
36:52like you i suppose that tracked an orchid meant purity it symbolized the acceptance of a family
36:57a rose passionate showy like a clandestine lover the laughter around me grew louder
37:06a bastard son who follows charlotte around like a lapdog and he thought he'd actually marry into
37:12the chase family and that was assess his family even the scholarship kid out ranks him charlotte
37:18silenced them with a glare but it was already enough to humiliate me ethan i'm sorry you were
37:25born into wealth while i just wanted a memorable night born into wealth i'm a bastard son do you have
37:31any idea how this family actually treats me tyler froze startled by me my bad but i was the only

38:02stop chasing her and try me instead but you never listened how's it feel now embarrassing right you
38:09this woman despised me i just needed three years i just needed three years enough leverage to break
38:15free from my family's control but my stepmother couldn't stand the sight of me she was already
38:20rushing to throw me out ethan holt if you weren't so pretty you'd be nothing you really think the
38:29chase family is going to protect you forever vanessa don't touch what's mine i thought you picked
38:36the scholarship kid why are you still keeping ethan around my business not yours why didn't you do

39:15charlotte choose him for that scholarship you grew up with everything you could want all i wanted
39:22was one night under charlotte's protection i let out a quiet sneer you think i had it better than you
39:29my mother died young i was brought back to the holt house just a child my stepmother looked at me
39:37like
39:37i shouldn't exist from the very first day my father had too many wives too many children to care about
39:43one more i learned early how to read a room how to make myself useful i found aunt diana in
39:48the margins
39:49i convinced her to train me to back me i stood in front of her forcing my hands to stay
39:54still father
39:55has over 20 children why would i believe a bastard son can beat all of them because i have no
40:00weakness
40:02and i'm willing to fight dirty but my time hadn't come yet diana wouldn't move for me not now everyone
40:09said my fiancee from the quinn family was a deadly poisonous flower my family wanted the alliance but
40:16not the cost they wouldn't sacrifice a true heir so they offered me diana had already heard how the
40:21gala ended a message arrived figure it out yourself i needed a solution
40:28well can you get the orchid back from tyler just for one night i'll return it in the morning
40:32charlotte blink clearly caught off guard that's a bit awkward isn't it i already gave it stop trying
40:37to take things from tyler the orchid had a gold trimmed edge custom made there was no replacing it
40:43the restraint i'd held all night finally snapped charlotte you promised why did you have to humiliate
40:49me tonight of all nights ethan no one in this city will touch you the only person who could ever
40:55want
40:55you is me everyone knows you're my little shadow her little shadow her lapdog i had played that role
41:01for years just to survive but hearing her say it so casually like it meant nothing it hit harder than
41:07i
41:07expected don't be angry at charlotte ethan ethan one night stop being difficult tomorrow he goes back to
41:12his normal life i gave charlotte a long lingering look then turned and walked out of the gala aunt diana's
41:18car was already waiting outside you lost tomorrow you go to new york what happens after that is your
41:23problem i'll come back we'll see
41:45the tank burst the wave slammed me across the floor yet my fiancee now held another woman in his arms
41:52and all of this was because his younger sister lila and i were caught in a rip current off puget
41:57sound i was saved lila lost her life the blackwood family thinks it was me who had killed their
42:03biological daughter why are you still alive you should have been the one who drowned you killed
42:08my daughter killia tossed my ring shredded my wedding gown and agreed to marry serena the next day
42:15coming home from the hospital i saw killian slicing our wedding portrait with a knife
42:20serena's moving in time to clear all this trash out serena vanderbilt his arranged marriage fiancee
42:26after throwing all this away are you gonna kick me out next you said you were dying of your illness
42:32didn't you then it's only fitting you go to atone for lila in death my body turned rigid when i
42:37heard
42:37those words killian blackwood was the unloved blackwood's son raised outside the manor walls from
42:42childhood i had given this brooding boy next door a single piece of candy because of that one small
42:48sweetness after my parents died in an earthquake killian protected me for 15 years countless days
42:53of depending on each other i fell in love with the man who held me at 20 i had written
42:58a hundred love
42:58letters and confided my longing to my best friend chloe reed never did i expect chloe to tell killian
43:04everything that night he made me take out the letters and read them aloud to him i'm sorry i'll never
43:09dare to whiber any improper thoughts again from now on i'll treat you as my elder brother for 15 years
43:15it
43:16wasn't that you needed me to raise you was that i needed your company that same year the blackwoods
43:21came to bring him home but they wouldn't accept me because the blackwood house could not hold two
43:25daughters killian put the messenger on the floor and looked at his father arthur blackwood know her
43:30know me i knew how desperately killian longed to return home yet he chose to stand by my side even
43:37at
43:38the cost of breaking with his family we dated five years before marrying with approval his sister lila
43:43despised me to ease the tension killian brought lila with us on our coastal wedding photo shoot
43:49after the photo shoot i saw lila in the rip current i rushed to save her without hesitation i survived
43:55but
43:55lila perished the blackwoods blamed me saying the adopted daughter had doomed their own child
44:01do you think it was my fault too you both went into the water you survived she didn't to this
44:07family
44:07that's a crime i knelt for three days and nights begging for their forgiveness however all i got
44:13was a miscarriage that night i was diagnosed with cancer i called killian he thought i was faking sick
44:19to trick him to punish me he burned my 1999 love letters right in front of me then froze my
44:25bank card
44:26what burned to ashes was not only my true love but also my desire to survive that night killian stumbled
44:33home drunk demanding something to sober up when i passed him the hangover soup i spotted my favorite
44:38lemon tarts on the table he shoved me away put those down they're for serena what are you doing so
44:45close still trying to lure me you're drunk i'm making you sobering soup sorry i was too drunk i mistook
44:54you for serena he got up and pushed me away he'd never been so cold to me nor so rough
44:58killian didn't
44:59spare me a glance walked upstairs and slammed the door everything changed the day lila died i knew
45:05he hated me for living yet i could do nothing the light was still on in killian's room i knocked
45:10softly coming to a man's room this late do you have any sense at all we're broken up i want
45:15to move out
45:15stop you from spouting nonsense you must stay here until i marry serena can i at least move to the
45:21lower
45:21level it's up to you i turned and walked back to my room in silence i didn't understand his anger
45:30lila was gone forever how could i possibly live here in peace this forced stay gave me time to
45:36ease myself into preparing to leave the next morning passing through the living room i heard
45:41killian talking on the phone with serena killian caught sight of me suddenly then ended the call
45:47where are you going i'll drive you i froze before i could answer he was already walking out to the
45:52garage he leaned on the horn are you getting in or do you want me to carry you i i
45:57can't sit up front

46:19he laughed and softened turning into someone i barely recognized i just bought us matching pajamas
46:25i'll model them tonight as their words grew bolder and more explicit killian pulled into
46:30the emergency lane get out serena's waiting me
46:55a destitute stripper who suffers from bills
47:02three months ago i'd been planning to audition for the new york ballet company now i was applying
47:06glitter to my skin for men who would tuck dollar bills into my g-string three months ago the wedding
47:11day of me and a man i had never met ethan pacheco a marriage i wanted no part of i
47:16had slipped away
47:17while the guests were arriving needing a moment to breathe to think i had wandered aimlessly until i
47:22heard sounds coming from one of the guest bedrooms although the man had his back to me i knew he
47:27must be my fiancee who i had never met without twice thought i drived away from the estate away from
47:32ethan pacheco and the future that had been decided for me i ended up at a bar downtown in the
47:37late night
47:38drowning my sorrows in tequila shots that's when he appeared beside me
47:50bad day
47:51bad day
47:54the worst
48:00i'm ethan
48:03of course you are
48:05i uh
48:07i'm running away from one ethan tonight i don't need another
48:11i had laughed then a bitter hollow sound the funny thing was with all the drama going on
48:16i still didn't know what my fiancee looked like but this guy had been charming attentive and i'd
48:22been vulnerable hurt and increasingly drunk when he suggested we get a room at the hotel next door
48:27i hadn't said no
48:43with nothing but a lingering hangover and the crushing realization that i couldn't go home again
48:48not to face my father's disappointment i disappeared cutting off contact with everyone from my old life
48:53my savings hadn't lasted long now i had to dance in a bar to earn money
48:57the bar had been booked out by the owner tonight he was going to hold an important party in the
49:01vip room
49:06those eyes almond shaped hazel with flecks of gold exactly like no oh god no this can't be happening
49:13that night at the bar my one night stand as my boss and ex-fiance
49:16his eyes met mine and the world stopped spinning
49:23stop staring at the boss are you crazy
49:28i immediately dropped my gaze the tiny sequined outfit left little to the imagination but it was
49:34better than being completely naked i needed this job rent wasn't going to pay itself did he recognize
49:39me shouldn't your older brother be running this meeting i can't imagine your father henry's crazy
49:46enough to let a 23 year old handle business this magnitude
49:52everyone turned to gauge ethan's reaction the tension thick enough to cut with a knife
49:58care to guess why i'm the heir while my big brother works under me
50:02you're not in any position to question my capabilities the man's face reddened he wisely
50:07kept his mouth shut the meeting dragged on numbers and threats mixing with the heavy beat of the music
50:13i felt increasingly lightheaded the room started to spin or was i the one spinning
50:21i landed hard on the floor right in front of the gathered crime family bosses is this how you dance
50:27you worthless slit ruining our evening with your amateur bullshit i looked up to see an ugly older
50:33man in the corner he pulled out a thick wad of cash throwing it on the ground bills scattered
50:38across the floor like fallen leaves if you don't want to lose those pretty legs of yours
50:43crawl over here and give me a proper lap dance
50:47and don't stop until every piece of that costume is on the floor
50:53you
