00:00The day I mentioned the mate bond to my fiancé, Lyndon, for the 99th time, I overheard him talking with
00:07his friends.
00:09Lyndon, you're something else. Alice is willing to wait for you.
00:14Lyndon swirled his glass.
00:16If it weren't for her, Nora wouldn't have mated with someone else out of spite.
00:22She won't let me have my way, so she should experience the same thing.
00:26Drag it out. The more she tries to mate with me, the less I'll agree.
00:38Anyway, she'll wait for me.
00:46Next year, raise the unbonded tax by 30.
00:56Alice will have to sell herself to make up the tax.
01:00Lyndon is the alpha heir. That poor girl wants to climb up.
01:04Selling herself once won't cut it. Sell as many times as needed.
01:08Tears ran down my face.
01:14The pack rules say, if a wolf turns 18 without a mate bond, they must pay the unbonded tax.
01:21Otherwise, the pack council will force us on land.
01:24Every time I pushed him to finish the bond, he said.
01:29Next year.
01:30I waited three years.
01:32I barely held on.
01:34The tax grew heavier every year.
01:36So, this year, I won't pay.
01:41Before Lyndon left, one of his servants came over to ask me.
01:46Alice.
01:47Did you scrape together this year's tax?
01:51If not, we can help you.
01:53Next year.
01:55Alpha hair promised.
01:58Next year, he'll finish the bond ceremony with you.
02:02I patted the half-empty money pouch at my waist.
02:06It had money, but it was far from enough to pay this year's unbonded tax.
02:11I'd been hearing this for three years.
02:14My family used to be a respected bloodline.
02:18Three years ago, my father got dragged into pack politics.
02:23Lyndon, the alpha heir, was my fiancé.
02:28Then, overnight, we had nothing.
02:30My father died that winter.
02:32We became an orphan.
02:40I had no choice but to go to Lyndon for shelter.
02:43The first time I saw him, the young she-wolf at his side looked pale and ran off crying.
02:48A few days later, she had mated with someone else.
02:52If you like her, we can call off the engagement.
02:56No need.
02:57You're my fiancé.
02:58I must keep my promise.
03:01When will we finish the bonding ceremony?
03:03Next year.
03:06Your father just died.
03:08Aren't you afraid of being cursed if we mate now?
03:12I struggled through that year and paid the tax with the last of my money.
03:16The next year, I asked him again and again.
03:19He finally lost patience.
03:22Do you ever stop?
03:23All you said is the mate bond.
03:25Do you only think about men?
03:28Shameless.
03:29I wouldn't show weakness.
03:31Crying?
03:32I'm joking.
03:33A witch says my wolf is unstable this year.
03:36Not a good year to mate.
03:38Next year.
03:39I'll mate with you next year.
03:41I stood there awkwardly.
03:43I wanted to tell him I was almost out of money.
03:47If I couldn't pay, the pack council would force assign a stranger as my mate.
03:53But I swallowed the words.
03:55I'll wait.
03:56I told myself.
03:57But life was getting harder.
03:59That year, the tax jumped by 50%.
04:02You keep dragging this out year after year.
04:07As you get older, the fee goes up.
04:10So he'd raised the price on purpose.
04:15I struggled through that year and paid the tax with the last of my money.
04:20The next year, I asked him again and again.
04:22He finally lost patience.
04:24Do you ever stop?
04:26All you said is the mate bond.
04:27Do you only think about men?
04:31Shameless.
04:31I wouldn't show weakness.
04:34Crying?
04:34I'm joking.
04:36A witch says my wolf is unstable this year.
04:39Not a good year to mate.
04:41Next year.
04:42I'll mate with you next year.
04:43I stood there awkwardly.
04:46I wanted to tell him I was almost out of money.
04:50If I couldn't pay, the pack council would force assign a stranger as my mate.
04:56But I swallowed the words.
04:58I'll wait.
04:59I told myself.
05:00But life was getting harder.
05:02That year, the tax jumped by 50%.
05:05You keep dragging this out, year after year.
05:10As you get older, the fee goes up.
05:13So he'd raise the price on purpose.
05:20Alice.
05:21Even the alpha hare has to pay.
05:24He has to be waiting for you.
05:25He's just young and playful.
05:28Wait a little longer.
05:32I know.
05:33Lyndon was the alpha heir.
05:35How would he know how hard it was for me to save?
05:38I lived in the alpha house.
05:39But I have no money.
05:41No money meant I had to find a way.
05:43I painted for other noble she-wolves.
05:46And took the money.
05:47With his casual words, I had to burn countless knights to draw.
05:52I put up with it for three years.
05:54This year, I wasn't going to anymore.
05:56I clutched my last money and went to the pack council.
06:00You again?
06:00And then, the unbonded tax went up.
06:03Are you paying?
06:05No.
06:06Fine.
06:07He opened the pairing book and casually ticked a name.
06:11Him.
06:11Done.
06:12Go.
06:12I didn't even know my future mate's name.
06:15My life was decided like that.
06:17Back at alpha house, Lyndon leaned against the doorway.
06:21Paid the tax?
06:22I looked down and lied.
06:24Yes.
06:27My blanket, wine glasses, bring them.
06:32Be careful.
06:34Don't break anything.
06:36You can't pay for it if it's ruined.
06:38He came over and reached to pat my head.
06:40I flinched.
06:42Want anything?
06:43I'll bring it back for you.
06:44He always did that.
06:46Just when my heart felt frozen, he'd hand me a sweet and steady me again.
06:50I'm pathetic.
06:51I always tell myself to call off the engagement.
06:55Don't wait.
06:56But when he smiles, I think, what if he really means next year?
07:01And I'm fooled every time.
07:04The money pouch.
07:05Why not get something nicer?
07:06I have plenty of money.
07:09No need.
07:12Alright.
07:15Hey!
07:16I turned and left.
07:18My room was in the far corner of alpha house.
07:21Few people came by.
07:22There was one good thing.
07:24It was near the side door.
07:26If the pack council came for me, no one would notice.
07:29I packed my things and left.
07:33My blanket, wine glasses, bring them.
07:38Be careful.
07:39Don't break anything.
07:41You can't pay for it if it's ruined.
07:44He came over and reached to pat my head.
07:46I flinched.
07:48Want anything?
07:49I'll bring it back for you.
07:50He always did that.
07:51Just when my heart felt frozen, he'd hand me a sweet and steady me again.
07:56I'm pathetic.
07:57I always tell myself to call off the engagement.
08:01Don't wait.
08:02But when he smiles, I think, what if he really means next year?
08:06And I'm fooled every time.
08:09The money pouch.
08:10Why not get something nicer?
08:12I have plenty of money.
08:15No need.
08:18Alright.
08:21Hey!
08:22I turned and left.
08:23My room was in the far corner of alpha house.
08:27Few people came by.
08:28There was one good thing.
08:30It was near the side door.
08:31If the pack council came for me, no one would notice.
08:35I packed my things and left.
08:38Only Mrs. Ward waited at the door.
08:41It's a big day for you.
08:44Aren't you wearing something new?
08:46Before my father died, he'd prepared clothes and jewelry for my ceremony.
08:51He didn't want me looking shabby.
08:54But the first year, Lyndon wouldn't bond with me.
08:57And the tax kept pressing.
08:59I had to sell the dress.
09:02The tax kept rising every year.
09:04I sold all my jewelry, too.
09:08Still no ceremony.
09:10It's fine.
09:11Live for yourself, not for show.
09:15Let's go.
09:16The sooner it's done, the better for both of us.
09:18We passed the alpha house gate, and Lyndon's carriage was there.
09:23He lounged on the cushions.
09:25He looked every bit the handsome air.
09:27I walked north.
09:29He rode south.
09:30We passed each other without a second purpose.
09:33A little way down the road, Mrs. Ward frowned at the pairing book.
09:37Where does Simon live again?
09:39I took the book.
09:40His address was near the pack academy.
09:43Lyndon used to study there.
09:47Ivy crawled over the small courtyard.
09:50The wooden fence was thin and scattered.
09:52Under an old oak stood a stone table.
09:55A book lay open on it, the wind turning the corners of the pages.
10:00Silas!
10:02Master Silas!
10:04Master, please not some gray-bearded old man.
10:07A young man holding a book stepped out.
10:09We stared at each other and froze.
10:12What's going on?
10:13Why is it hurt?
10:15This can't be right.
10:16She's my student's fiancée.
10:18Is there some mistake?
10:19Mrs. Ward didn't care to argue.
10:22The pack council named the mate.
10:25How can it be wrong?
10:28Congratulations.
10:31Mr. Silas.
10:32This really isn't proper.
10:35I'll go to the council tomorrow and explain.
10:38He clearly looked down on me.
10:41If he sent me back to the council, I didn't know who I'd be assigned next.
10:49I don't have the money to pay the tax.
11:14I don't have the money to pay the tax.
11:16He saw me outside to warm up.
11:17When Lindon saw me, his face went cold.
11:20Who told you to come?
11:22The alpha heir's fiancée.
11:24She looks so poor.
11:27I had embarrassed him.
11:28By the time the soup cooled, he wouldn't even drink a drop.
11:31I was about to pour it out Silas put three silver coins on the step don't
11:40waste food
11:46consider it bought
11:53Lyndon hated studying and kept getting punished to copy the PAC laws he passed
11:58the work to me I copied so much that even Silas couldn't stand it he looked at my
12:05handwriting neat writing you helped him copyright if he won't learn and has
12:12others do his work what's the point fine no more punishments you can stay there
12:21for now my held breath finally fell away I couldn't help letting out a small
12:25grateful thank you mr. Silas I admit I was a little shameless mr. Silas is
12:35soft-hearted three years ago Lyndon went off to the Academy I wanted to make a
12:40good impression so on a snowy day I cooked a pot of hot soup and took it to the
12:45Academy I was shaking outside Silas saw me and breaking the rules let me inside to
12:53warm-up when Lyndon saw me his face went cold who told you to come I had
13:04embarrassed him by the time the soup cooled he wouldn't even drink a drop I was
13:09about to pour it out Silas put three silver coins on the step don't waste food
13:23consider it bought
13:29Lyndon hated studying and kept getting punished to copy the PAC laws he passed the
13:35work to me I copied so much that even Silas couldn't stand it he looked at my
13:41handwriting neat writing you helped him copyright if he won't learn and has
13:49others do his work what's the point fine no more punishments
13:56you can stay there for now my held breath finally fell away I couldn't help
14:01letting out a small grateful thank you mr. Silas I was so tired that I collapsed
14:08into bed and was out like a light when I woke the next morning Silas was already
14:12gone I went out to look for him the neighbor Mrs Finch greeted me isn't he
14:17your cousin he couldn't live with you he moved into the Academy I walked back
14:23home he really was old-fashioned it made me look like the one squatting in his room
14:27if he really didn't want to be my mate I could write articles to earn some money
14:31save the tax move out once I had enough since I was staying in his place I should
14:36at least tidy up while cleaning I found a trunk it was neatly stacked with books on top
14:41was a copy of strange tales the pages were yellow and the corners curled it had
14:46clearly been read a lot I opened it and couldn't stop I lost track of time
14:51ghosts coming back to life a silver wolf for paying a debt these books were
14:55completely unlike what a rigid one like him should be reading maybe I had read so
15:01many strange tales that day that night I dreamed of a silver wolf it walked in on
15:07the moonlight bowed its head to me like a salute then it held at the sky where the
15:13moonlight fell the house turned spotless and the corners filled with deer meat I
15:19woke up laughing to myself I felt oddly lighter good dream I got up to fetch water
15:28and froze the wooden bucket was full I clearly remembered using half of it that
15:33afternoon had I misremembered then the odd things kept happening every morning
15:38the bucket was full the flour that was almost gone yesterday was piled up today
15:42I ate a few pieces of venison and the basket had fresh meat the next morning
15:46could there really be a silver wolf that night I barely slept I crept out but I
15:51was too late I mustered my nerve and called out who's there show yourself the
15:57next night I forced myself to stay awake around midnight I heard a Russell I
16:02jumped out of bed and tiptoed to the kitchen Silas was there he was bent over pouring flour and
16:09quietly placing venison into the basket it was cypress I felt everything at once I'd
16:16been here a month and never once gone hungry or thirsty I checked the wardrobe where I'd
16:22hidden a few silver coins I counted them again and they had actually grown in three years at the
16:29alpha house Linden never asked if I was cold or hungry Silas cared in small careful ways he wasn't
16:37as different the next morning I made some flatbreads and rushed to the academy I stood under the tree
16:43outside the classroom and peered through the half open window how had I never noticed before Silas was
16:51handsome he looked up without meaning to his eyes crossed the sill and met mine after class
16:58he hurried out why are you here for you you don't need to do this the academy has a kitchen
17:07I can make
17:08my own thanks for the food I can't eat it all by myself you should leave soon if someone sees
17:17it won't look
17:18good for you he really didn't want to be my mate I know he dodged me at every turn afraid
17:26to be tied
17:26to me back home I stared at my fuzzy reflection in the basin and forced a smile Linden had said
17:33my
17:33looks were tempting and that I only thought about mating all day someone as proper as Silas would
17:40probably only like girls like Nora I counted my few coins over and over I still didn't have enough
17:49for the year's tax writing and painting to earn money was too slow I was worrying when I suddenly
17:55remembered Silas's strange tales an idea hit me maybe I could write the weird stories pack members
18:02liked and sell them to the bookshop I shut my door and wrote for three days I put down a
18:08few chapters
18:08about a silver wolf returning the favor the shopkeeper was uninterested at first he read it
18:14anyway when he finished he slapped 50 silver coins on the counter and said miss go write more I'll sell
18:22this half now if it sells we can do the rest the first thing I did with the money was
18:30go to the market
18:30now how Silas keeps sneaking food in at night but Silas still came at midnight if there was no
18:38where to put the food he swept the yard sometimes he cut the meat he was always busy one morning
18:45I
18:45opened the door and heard a small clink at my feet a little mirror lay on the ground I bent
18:50to pick it
18:51up I couldn't say how I felt he didn't talk much to me but he was quietly kind the stories
18:57sold better

21:38he'd planned it all along I ran home heart-pounding
21:50silas stood in the yard he held a moon-shaped lantern and gave a bitter smile into the empty space
21:56mr. Silas you I thought you left I have known everything about our mate bond
22:15this I didn't think it through don't get me wrong I I have no other intentions it's just just
22:25I pressed him and he finally told me things I hadn't known he was a lone wolf my father had
22:32taken
22:32him in my father gave him food and helped him go to the academy the first time I went to
22:38the academy
22:39to look for Lyndon he recognized me he wanted to help but I had a fiance he couldn't interfere you
22:48were only
22:48six back then your father trained students at the academy every day you sat by the side do you
22:55remember your father saved my life he was such a good man I wanted to repay him if he knew
23:03you were
23:04forced into a mating chest and living in misery his heart would break stay here for now if you meet
23:11someone you love in the future I will as a brother arrange the mating ceremony so the silver wolf from
23:19the stories really had come to return a favor but I thought about all the little things from these
23:25past days is that it in the stories the silver wolf repays by offering itself not entirely
23:35at first it was to repay you now I have my own feelings he was too shy to say more
23:42still I saw that
23:44hidden affection in his eyes I hurried to change the subject what is this a gift for you
23:55I remember you liked moon-shaped lanterns when you were little I don't know if you still do I stepped
24:01forward without thinking when I took the lantern I gently held his hand Silas's fingers jumped
24:09next year can we spend harvest moon together again of course
24:16linden had barely come home before he and his friends clustered around a table linden
24:22I heard alice paid another year's unbonded tax she really loves you lucky you
24:32aren't you worried she might stop paying and mate with someone else would she a daughter of a fallen
24:39family who can't even afford decent clothes who would want her as a mate
24:46I am the only one who doesn't despise her you're the alpha heir why not just pay the tax for
24:53alice directly
24:54what do you know if she never learns to save how will she appreciate silver if she truly becomes my
25:02mate and lives a good life she'll get cocky don't be moved by her little sacrifices she's trying to
25:10trade a small favor for a big prize such scheming can't hide from me linden did you hear mr silas
25:21has
25:21a mate now should we send a gift mr silas oh him a lone wolf playing mister don't make me
25:31laugh
25:32i heard it's a mate assigned by the council neither of them could afford the unmade tax
25:39family who can't even pay the unbonded tax
25:42what good daughters do they raise a lone wolf and a lowborn girl truly a match made in fate
25:50somehow he suddenly thought of me how many years has alice paid the unbonded tax four years including
25:58this one
26:02fine next year she won't have to pay i'll reluctantly make her my mate go buy her a money pals
26:13get the best one you're so good to alice she'll be thrilled
26:22the first thing linden did at home was head to my room but when he pushed the door open he
26:29froze
26:30dust lay thick inside it looked like no one had lived there for a long time he stormed back to
26:37his room
26:37furious where's alice the butler met him at once smiling in that practiced way we were just about to
26:47tell you the good news alice couldn't pay the tax a few days ago the pack council assigned her a
26:53mate
26:54she won't have a chance to bother you anymore what did you say who gave you the right to act
27:03on your own
27:06she was short of money didn't you give her any you just stood there and let the pack council drag
27:12her
27:13off haven't you always disliked alice you've been stalling to make her give up haven't you you also
27:21told us she couldn't touch the alpha family's money until the bond was completed didn't you
27:26wasn't that true when did i he looked around at the servants it seemed they didn't understand why he
27:35was angry they'd all seen how he treated me he kept postponing the bond year after year they were
27:43sure he was teasing me only i had been foolish enough to believe him he collapsed to the floor i've
27:51wanted to bond with her for a long time i was only joking after that day silas moved back home
28:01he took one room i took another we didn't bother each other i watched his back as he left each
28:08morning and worried aren't we mates now why is he more proper than a young lady does he expect me

28:32his mate shut up one more word and you're copying the pack laws now go home the students laughed and
28:39scattered then bumped straight into linden he stood there like thunder alpha here here for class
28:47sorry you've already graduated simus how can you mate with a student's fiancee do you even know shame
28:56alice come with me come home save your reputation from being ruined by him linden
