Short filmTranscript
00:12On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, Blood Prince Saron summoned me onto the High Platform in front
00:17of the entire Silvermoon Blood Clan.
00:18Eve Abel, today is your coming-of-age day. As per the agreement I made with your father, you may
00:22choose one of my two sons to form an Eternal Blood Plath with.
00:25Whoever you choose will become the next Prince.
00:27This was Saron's test for his two sons. Whoever completed the Eternal Blood first would inherit the throne.
00:34Attendants presented two gold-framed portraits. I didn't hesitate for a second.
00:38My gaze landed directly on the portrait, radiating that cold, sharp aura.
00:43I choose him. Cast Nightshake.
00:45Instantly, the entire hall froze as if encased in ice.
00:48The entire hall froze as if encased in ice.
00:51Then, an enormous uproar erupted.
00:54In my previous life, I formed the Eternal Blood Pot with Cain.
01:15My mother, Furious, sent Lena to the Shadowblood Clan to marry their Vicelord.
01:21Cain blamed everything on me.
01:24He paraded around in front of me with a group of female vampires who all had the same icy blue
01:29eyes as Lina.
01:31When he discovered I was carrying his offspring, he deliberately made me watch him entwile with those women.
01:37It was pure torture.
01:38On the day I gave birth, he locked me in the dungeon and forbid anyone from approaching.
01:42My child was crushed to death and I died filled with endless hatred.
01:45Perhaps the Goddess of Night took pity on me.
01:47She gave me another chance.
01:49This time, I willingly left Cain to Lena.
01:54And you?
01:55Standing there like a spoiled little princess?
01:58No sense of responsibility at all.
01:59I had just walked out of the council hall and was crossing the training crowns when I saw him.
02:03Cain, sparring, surrounded by a crowd of vampires.
02:07A flash of silver.
02:08His curved blade slipped from his hand and clittered sharply to the ground, landing three feet in front of my
02:14boots.
02:14Silver was the bane of Bloodclen members, especially devastating to purebloods or high-ranking vampires.
02:20He didn't even lift his eyelids.
02:21He simply barked.
02:22Pick it up.
02:23The surrounding vampires froze.
02:25All eyes turned to me, waiting for a good show.
02:28I knew this game.
02:29In my previous life, he treated me like his personal sling.
02:31I didn't move.
02:32I simply ground my heel into the gravel and said calmly,
02:35You dropped it.
02:36Pick it up yourself.
02:37The training ground fell into deathly silence.
02:40Even the wind stopped.
02:42What did you just say?
02:44Someone let out a low whistle.
02:46Damn, Eve.
02:47New strategy?
02:48Weren't you glued to him just a few days ago?
02:50Now you're playing queen?
02:52You used to be his little lapdog, always clinging to him.
02:55You think your dead pad would be proud of this?
02:58Before I could respond, a light set of footsteps broke the tension.
03:01Lena linked in, her long leather skirt trailing along the ground, the hem soaked with blood.
03:06She crouched down, biting her lip, her hand trembling as she picked up the curved blade.
03:10Cold sweat beaded on her skin.
03:12I told you to rest.
03:13Who let you come out?
03:14He turned to me, eyes burning with rage.
03:17Look at Lena.
03:18She's injured and still willing to help me.
03:20And you?
03:21Standing there like a spoiled little princess?
03:23No sense of responsibility at all.
03:25Same old tricks.
03:32You just came from the prince's office, right?
03:35What now?
03:36Playing the pity card again?
03:37Telling the story about how your dad blocked a silver dagger for him?
03:40Begging to be my mate?
03:42You're truly pathetic, Eve.
03:44Always using moral blackmail.
03:46Always scheming.
03:47You've tried every trick just to tie me down.
03:49I clenched my sleeves, my voice calm.
03:52I didn't say a single word.
03:54The prince summoned me himself.
03:55He wanted to personally host my coming-of-age ceremony.
03:59The air felt like it had been whipped.
04:01The prince is personally hosting her coming-of-age ceremony?
04:04BloodClan members swarmed toward Cain.
04:07Cain, congratulations!
04:08The prince hosting the ceremony himself means you're taking over!
04:12When you become prince, don't forget us!
04:13Cain lifted his chin, his anger mixed with hidden delight.
04:17Then his gaze returned to me.
04:18But let's be clear.
04:19Even if we do form the Bloodpost,
04:21stay out of my business with Lina.
04:23Know your place.
04:25Otherwise...
04:26He paused, his eyes darkening.
04:30I won't be your mate.
04:32He scooped Lina up and left without looking back.
04:35The whispers started immediately,
04:37followed by mocking laughter.
04:43I watched their retreating figures and let out a soft laugh.
04:49Anyway, I never planned to form a pact with you.
05:01Ripped off their masks and demanded why they were humiliating me on my own ceremony day.
05:05On the day of the coming-of-age ceremony,
05:07Cain arrived late,
05:09with Lina still clinging to him.
05:10Her lips were swollen,
05:12and his collarbone was covered in fresh red scratch marks.
05:15The surrounding vampires exchanged knowing, sleazy smiles.
05:18It was obvious what they had been doing in the shadows.
05:20In my previous life,
05:22I would have rushed over,
05:24ripped off their masks,
05:24and demanded why they were humiliating me on my own ceremony day.
05:28Now, I glanced at them,
05:29then looked away as if they were nothing but dirt on my boot.
05:32Cain caught that glance.
05:34He suddenly pulled Lina behind him.
05:36When he saw I had no reaction,
05:38he grew uneasy.
05:40What's wrong, Eve?
05:41Afraid I won't be your mate?
05:42So now you're playing the saint?
05:44Don't be stupid!
05:45How about this?
05:46He leaned in,
05:47lowering his voice,
05:48his gaze roaming over my body.
05:50After the ceremony,
05:51come find me behind the castle,
05:52at the blood spring.
05:53Don't wear anything.
05:54If your body is decent enough,
05:55maybe I'll let you into my bed.
05:57Lina pouted and tugged his sleeve.
05:58Cain, how can you say that?
05:59Isn't my body better than her?
06:01Cain grinned,
06:02pinching her cheek.
06:03Of course yours is better.
06:05A thousand times better.
06:07That blood spring?
06:08It's for you.
06:09Lina's eyes lit up.
06:11She gave me a triumphant glance.
06:13The surrounding vampires
06:15burst into loud laughter.
06:17Whistles and vulgar jokes
06:19flew around like knives.
06:28Can't pretend to be something you're not.
06:31I yanked my hand back.
06:36That sound flipped a switch.
06:39Memories from my previous life flooded back.
06:47He had done this before,
06:49humiliating me in front of the entire blood clan,
06:52treating me like a chew toy.
06:57I used to shake with rage.
06:59He would just laugh
07:00and said my shame excited him.
07:02Cain shut her down,
07:03claiming I was just a bloodlust chaser
07:05begging for his scraps.
07:07I turned to leave.
07:08His hand suddenly clamped around my wrist.
07:11Still pretending.
07:12He tightened his grip,
07:14the force digging into my bones.
07:21A vampire like you
07:22can't pretend to be something you're not.
07:25I yanked my hand back,
07:26knuckles white.
07:27Watch your mouth.
07:28Oh?
07:29You expect me to respect you?
07:31We're destined to be blood-packed mates.
07:33Do you really still need that?
07:35I don't know.
07:40I don't know.
07:40I don't know.
07:40Who said I'm forming a blood pact with you?
07:47Silence sliced through the air like a blade.
07:51Who I choose is none of your business.
07:55Then the laughter.
07:57Loud, ugly, everywhere.
08:00Cain laughed the hardest.
08:02Not forming a pact with me?
08:04Then with who?
08:05Everyone knows you'd die for me.
08:07What?
08:07Cass?
08:08Cass has been rotting in the dark ancient forest for years.
08:12They say he's gone feral.
08:14He skinned a shadowblade challenger alive
08:17and left the corpse hanging.
08:25You want to form a pact with him?
08:27You trying to die early?
08:31What, cat got your tongue?
08:33Weren't you acting so tough earlier?
08:35Or are you finally scared?
08:38Lena slicked over,
08:39her voice sickeningly sweet.
08:42Eve probably remembered those stories about Cass.
08:45She elegantly tugged Cain's sleeve,
08:47but her eyes stayed glued to me.
08:49If she really forms a pact with him,
08:51she might not even have bones left.
08:53Laughter rippled through the crowd.
08:55A few young vampires whistled at the perfect moments.
08:59In my previous life,
09:00I might have lunged at Lena and ripped her hair out.
09:03But this time,
09:04it was different.
09:09Who I choose is none of your business.
09:18You're this jealous?
09:22Eve, don't be like this.
09:24She said softly,
09:25eyes watery.
09:26I was just worried about you.
09:29You did block a hunter's silver dagger for Cain, remember?
09:35I turned to leave.
09:37First came her gasp.
09:39Then her wine glass slipped,
09:40just as it fell.
09:42She suddenly leaned against me.
09:44The next thing I knew,
09:45she staggered backward as if I had pushed her,
09:47then dramatically fell to the ground with a thud.
09:50Lina's wail cut through the air,
09:52tears streaming down her cheeks.
09:53Even if you hate me,
09:54you can't push me.
09:55My leg,
09:56it hurts so much.
09:57Cain's face darkened.
10:00He stepped in front of her like a shield,
10:03fury surging.
10:04Seriously?
10:07You're this jealous?
10:11He lifted her as if she were the moon,
10:13eyes full of pain.
10:14She's your sister!
10:16Lena was only my cousin,
10:17but after she moved in,
10:19everyone treated her like a full sister.
10:22Behind his shoulder,
10:23Lena peeked out,
10:24smirking.
10:25I couldn't help but laugh.
10:31I didn't touch her at all.
10:41Cain's rage exploded.
10:42He raised his hand and slapped me hard across the face.
10:46Still lying?
10:50The entire blood clan knows you're jealous of Lina.
10:53If you hadn't clung to me so desperately,
10:55I never would have noticed you.
10:58Lena tugged his arm,
10:59her voice trembling.
11:00Cain, don't.
11:01Eva's probably just upset.
11:03She always thought you'd choose her.
11:05Soft words,
11:06sharper than claws.
11:07Just like before,
11:08saying I was forcing the blood pact,
11:09hiding behind my father's reputation,
11:11saying I couldn't even tolerate my own sister.
11:14These rumors stuck like spit from jealous female vampires,
11:17dirty and hard to wash off.
11:20Cain's rage exploded.
11:21He raised his hand and slapped me hard across the face.
11:33You'd better behave.
11:34Touch Lina again,
11:35and I'll personally expel you from the Silvermoon blood clan.
11:39The stinging pain on my cheek spread like fire.
11:42I wanted to hit back,
11:43but from the corner of my eye,
11:44I saw the guests moving around the venue.
11:47This was my coming-of-age ceremony.
11:50Lena had pained Cain,
11:52that smirk still on her lips.
11:55She leaned into his arms as if they had rehearsed it.
12:05If anything happens to Lina,
12:07you'll regret it.
12:08Cain's hand hovered in the air.
12:10Perhaps he realized he had gone too far.
12:12His throat bobbed,
12:13as if words were stuck.
12:14But Leta stood on her tiptoes and whimpered.
12:17Cain,
12:17my leg hurts so much.
12:18What if I can never walk again?
12:20Her fingers wrapped around his wrist,
12:22pulling his full attention away.
12:23The whispers surged like waves.
12:25Their gazes pierced my skin like poisoned needles.
12:29No manners.
12:31Bullying her own sister over a blood-packed mate?
12:34As if she even had a chance.
12:36Cain would never choose her.
12:38Apologize to Lena!
12:41You think just because your dad blocked a silver arrow for him,
12:44you can lash onto our next prince?
12:48I remembered everything.
12:51Risking my life for Cain,
12:53training like a madwoman
12:55just to scare away anyone who looked at him.
12:58I thought being ruthless was love.
13:01Now it just felt pathetic.
13:03Cain glared at me with disgust.
13:05What are you still standing here for?
13:08If anything happens to Lina,
13:10you'll regret it.
13:11His lackeys laid loudly
13:12and eagerly joined in the joring.
13:26Everyone knew what kind of person Cass was.
13:30The prince is about to announce our blood pact.
13:33Be smart.
13:34Know your place.
13:35Then he lowered his voice with his usual smugness.
13:37Once the marking is done,
13:39I'll give you the status you deserve.
13:40Don't ruin things between me and Lena.
13:42I stared at him,
13:44locking onto those eyes.
13:47A horn sounded,
13:49long and hollow.
13:51The vicelord strode in.
13:54Miss Abel,
13:56it's time.
13:57His cloudy eyes landed on the bruise on my cheek,
14:00flashing a hint of pity.
14:01Behind him,
14:02a black figure slowly emerged.
14:04Hood pulled low,
14:05jaw sharp as a blade.
14:06A long silver-patterned sword
14:08strapped to his back,
14:09a blood rose pendant swaying gently.
14:12Cass Nightshade.
14:13Saron's eldest son,
14:14freshly returned from the dark ancient forest.
14:17The dark ancient forest wasn't just a place of exile.
14:19It was a graveyard that had swallowed countless powerful blood clan members.
14:22He had personally ripped out the heart of a shadowblade challenger
14:25and hung it at the forest entrance as a warning.
14:27Blood still dripping,
14:28shaking the entire north.
14:29Silence hit like a punch.
14:30A few young vampires nearly dropped what they were holding.
14:33Someone knocked over a wine bowl,
14:34clattering loudly,
14:35the liquid splashing onto torches with a hiss.
14:37Even the vicelord twitched slightly.
14:39Everyone knew what kind of person Cass was.
14:42He still carried a strong scent of blood,
14:44and his icy gaze seemed capable of freezing the air itself.
14:53It's nothing.
14:56Cass stopped right in front of me.
15:03What happened to your face?
15:04His voice was sharp and serious as a cut.
15:06His icy gaze pierced straight through me.
15:09I met those deep blue eyes and then I saw it.
15:11That memory.
15:12Him covered in blood,
15:14bursting into the dungeon,
15:15holding my cold wolf as if it would kill him.
15:18He went mad for me.
15:24It's nothing.
15:25I forced a smile,
15:27trying to hide the bruise.
15:29Cain scoffed and stepped between us.
15:31Cass, I'll handle Eve's matters.
15:32No need for you to worry.
15:34He struck a pose.
15:35She's about to become my mate.
15:37I've got this.
15:38The vicelord frowned,
15:40about to speak,
15:41but one look from Cass silenced him.
15:43Cass removed his hood,
15:45sharp, chiseled features,
15:46and even more cutting expression.
15:49Father sent me.
15:51He said the able girl's coming of age
15:53is a major event for the blood clad.
15:55Let's go.
15:57I walked past Cain with steady steps.
16:00Cain looked smug as if he could already see
16:03the prince's crest hanging around his own neck.
16:06Whoever she chooses
16:07will be the next prince.
16:09As soon as the blood clad filled the hall,
16:12Saron descended from the platform,
16:14grisping the scepter carved with blood roses.
16:16His silver hair gleamed under the lights.
16:19He had lived for countless ages.
16:21Yet standing there,
16:22he still looked like a legend.
16:27He took my hand,
16:29smiling.
16:31A big day indeed,
16:34he said,
16:35his voice carrying across the hall.
16:38Eve has come of age.
16:40As I promised her father,
16:42she will choose one of my sons
16:45to form an eternal blood pot with.
16:47Whoever she chooses
16:49will be the next prince.
16:53Gasps rippled through the hall.
16:57All eyes turned to Cain,
16:59some filled with jealousy.
17:03Yes,
17:04they all remembered
17:05how obsessed I had once been with him.
17:09Now.
17:11Saron stabbed my hand.
17:15Let the Chosen One step forward.
17:18I will witness it personally.
17:21Cain straightened his back,
17:22chin high,
17:23already strutting halfway toward victory,
17:26until Saron raised a hand.
17:29Then Saron turned,
17:31his gaze softening
17:32as it landed on the corner.
17:34Cass.
17:36I chose Cass.
17:38He is now my blood-packed mate.
17:40He had changed into ceremonial acquire,
17:42hair neatly tied back,
17:43every angle of his face
17:44sharp enough to cut.
17:45In his hands was a bouquet
17:46of night star flowers,
17:48still carrying the faint glow
17:49of the dark ancient forest.
17:50He walked forward
17:51with his usual steady composure
17:52and stopped in front of me.
17:54Are you ready, Eve?
17:55His voice was low,
17:56certain.
17:57The moment Cass spoke,
17:58the hall buzzed
17:59like a kicked beehive.
18:00Why him?
18:01Vampires leaned in,
18:02whispering rapidly.
18:03Didn't Eve love Cain enough
18:05to die for him?
18:06Why Cass?
18:07Did they get this wrong?
18:08Cain's face darkened.
18:10He rushed forward,
18:11panic in his voice.
18:12Father, there must be a mistake.
18:14Saron gave him a look
18:15colder than midwinter.
18:18I may have lived a long time,
18:20but I am not senile.
18:23Do you think I would joke
18:25about the future
18:25of the Silvermoon Bloodclan?
18:27The Vice Lord stepped forward,
18:29holding a scroll.
18:30The Prince's decision is final.
18:32Eve has chosen Cass
18:33as her eternal blood-packed mate.
18:37Cain interrupted desperately,
18:38his voice cracking.
18:39No!
18:40This is wrong!
18:41There's a problem!
18:42He turned to me,
18:43face full of desperation.
18:46Eve, tell them.
18:47You chose me.
18:50Father just made a mistake, right?
18:54I smiled faintly,
18:55firm and sharp.
18:57I chose Cass.
18:59He is now my blood-packed mate,
19:01the only one.
19:03Cass's hand holding the Nightstar flowers
19:06tightened slightly.
19:06When our eyes met,
19:08something flashed in his gaze.
19:10Surprise, raw and real.
19:13A gift from the Prince, Miss Abel.
19:16May your blood-pack strengthen our clan.
19:19Cain lunged forward
19:21and grabbed my wrist
19:22hard enough to bruise.
19:23Liar!
19:24You love me!
19:26Everyone knows you'd die for me!
19:28How could you choose this savage?
19:31Father forced you, didn't he?
19:33The Vice Lord pushed between us
19:35and yanked Cain's hand away.
19:37He turned to the gathering vampires.
19:39What are you waiting for?
19:41Get him out!
19:42Unless you want to fight him too!
19:44They immediately moved,
19:46dragging the kicking and screaming Cain away
19:49as he roared.
19:50Eve!
19:51Say something!
19:52Tell them it's a mistake!
19:54You chose me!
19:56No!
19:57No!
19:57No!
19:59Saron waved his hand.
20:02The guards slammed the heavy doors shut
20:04with a deep, resounding thut.
20:07Silence slapped the air.
20:09The Vice Lord handed me
20:11a carved wooden box
20:12emboided with the Silvermoon BloodClan totem.
20:16A gift from the Prince, Miss Abel.
20:19May your blood-pack strengthen our clan.
20:24I looked down at it.
20:26Something flickered in my chest.
20:30Inside was the Prince's crest,
20:32passed down for generations.
20:35The very thing Cain had chased
20:37his entire previous life.
20:40That voice deep inside had never stopped.
20:43Choosing him was right.
20:46At the banquet,
20:48torchlight danced on the stone walls.
20:52I scanned the crowd.
20:55No sign of Cain.
21:00I turned,
21:01wine glass in hand,
21:03and collided solidly with a firm chest.
21:08The sharp scent of cedar and blood hit me.
21:14My eyes sting.
21:17When Cain locked me in the dungeon,
21:21it was Cass who kicked the door open
21:25and carried me out.
21:28I was barely breathing.
21:31He was covered in wounds himself,
21:33snaring at the approaching vampires.
21:38Touch her again,
21:40and I'll skin you all alive
21:42and bury you with her.
21:46After I died,
21:48he turned dungeon into a sea of blood,
21:50exposing every filthy thing Cain had done to Saron.
21:54I was already gone,
21:56just a soul watching him fight the entire blood clan for me.
22:01That was when I understood.
22:03This ruthless vampire had always put me first.
22:08Ever since I returned,
22:10that voice deep inside had never stopped.
22:13Choosing him was right.
22:16At the start of the banquet,
22:18Saron moated for Cass to sit at his right hand.
22:21Every vampire in the hall froze.
22:23That seat meant one thing.
22:26Cass was the next prince.
22:28He sat down without hesitation,
22:30as if it had always been his place.
22:32Whispers erupted among the crowd.
22:34No one had expected this.
22:36They all thought I was still entangled with Cain?
22:39And Cass?
22:39The lone wolf who once smashed a wine jug
22:42and roared that he would never stop for any female vampire?
22:45How could he agree to form a blood pot with me?
22:47In the midst of the commotion,
22:49Cain staggled through the crowd,
22:50drunk and pitiful.
22:52He slurred loudly and chaotically.
22:55Father!
22:57You can't approve their blood pot!
23:02Saron eyed him,
23:04drunk, swaying, reeking of alcohol,
23:06and said sternly,
23:09Get him out.
23:11If he can still stand,
23:13let him crawl back to his quarters.
23:15Stop embarrassing himself here.
23:17Cain grabbed the table,
23:19refusing to leave.
23:24Eve and I grew up together.
23:26We know each other!
23:28You can't tear us apart!
23:31Saron turned his gaze to me.
23:34Oh?
23:36Childhood sweethearts?
23:38That's...
23:39Interesting.
23:40I remember it differently.
23:43Eve, explain it yourself.
23:47You think you can touch her?
23:51I smiled faintly,
23:53my voice calm.
23:54Prince,
23:55I don't understand why Cain is saying this.
23:58I've always seen him as a brother.
24:00He's the one chasing Lena,
24:03not me.
24:06Cain's face twisted.
24:10His eyes widened.
24:12Eve!
24:14I love you!
24:16I've always loved you!
24:20Cain suddenly grinned,
24:22strangely.
24:24I get it.
24:27You're jealous.
24:28Still mad I gave Lena that arctic fox fur,
24:31right?
24:32Using Cass to get back at me?
24:35I didn't back down.
24:38You shouldn't say that.
24:41I am forming the eternal blood pot with Cass.
24:46You can't.
24:48You're mine.
24:50Cain snarlered,
24:51then lunged.
24:54As soon as his hand moved,
24:56Cass' hand snapped out
24:57and grabbed his arm.
24:59Crack.
25:00Cain groaned,
25:02breath hitching,
25:03sweat beating on his forehead.
25:04Cass' gaze was lethal.
25:06The vampires around us
25:07instinctively stepped back.
25:08She's my blood pack, mate.
25:11You think you can touch her?
25:13With a sharp twist,
25:14he slammed Cain to the ground.
25:17Cain curled up,
25:19groaning.
25:20I didn't even look at him.
25:22I simply turned to Cass.
25:23Cass stood over him,
25:26unmoving.
25:27A wine hug rolled across the floor
25:29and was kicked aside
25:30by Pithlu's boot.
25:45Know your place.
25:54This is Eve's coming-of-age ceremony.
25:56Don't make me spill blood.
25:59Ceron slammed his seppler
26:01heavily onto the ground,
26:02producing a deep resonance.
26:07Silence returned instantly.
26:09You disgrace.
26:13How's the rest in for three months?
26:15Stay in your room and reflect.
26:18But Cain wasn't done.
26:20Eve!
26:20Tell him you love me!
26:22Say it!
26:29I didn't even look at him.
26:31I simply turned to Cass
26:32and smiled quietly.
26:34Even if you're afraid,
26:35it's too late now.
26:37Our bonding ceremony
26:38was set for the next
26:39Blood Moon night.
26:41One morning before that,
26:42I found Cass waiting
26:43by the training grounds.
26:44He didn't speak for a minute.
26:46Just watched.
26:49Then, in a low, tense voice.
26:52Everyone thinks I'm a monster.
26:55That I've killed too many.
26:57Are you afraid of me?
26:59I stopped mid-draw.
27:01Bo half-pulled
27:02and met his eyes directly.
27:04Afraid of what?
27:05Afraid that one day
27:06I'll lose control and hurt you.
27:08His gaze involuntarily fell
27:09on the pulsing vein
27:10at the side of my neck.
27:11The heartbeat there
27:12looked especially soft
27:13and tempting in the morning light.
27:15His throat bobbed noticeably
27:16and a fierce,
27:17almost uncontrollable hunger
27:18flashed in his deep blue eyes.
27:20But it doesn't matter.
27:21Even if you're afraid,
27:22it's too late now.
27:24No matter if you regret it later,
27:25I won't let go.
27:27You're mine.
27:28Even in this life,
27:30you can only be mine.
27:31I want to bite your neck right now
27:33and leave my mark on you forever.
27:36The morning sunlight
27:36illuminated his face.
27:38In that moment,
27:38I saw again the image
27:39from my previous life
27:40of him covered in blood,
27:41rushing into the dungeon for me,
27:43fighting the entire Blood Clan.
27:44I've never regretted it.
27:45And I'm not afraid of you.
27:47I've heard what they say.
27:49But I know you're not
27:50the monster they describe.
27:52The sharp edges softened.
27:53A flush crept up his neck.
27:55I interrupted him.
27:56I've heard what they say,
27:57but I know you're not
27:58the monster they describe.
27:59I chose you,
28:00Cass Nightshake.
28:00From the very beginning,
28:01I never doubted it.
28:03Acting all devoted to Cass
28:05when you're actually terrified.
28:11His throat moved.
28:12He reached out,
28:13fingers wrapping around my wrist,
28:15steady and warm.
28:18Eve,
28:19don't forget what you said today.
28:21His voice grew lower,
28:23rough as gravel.
28:24I won't.
28:30When I returned to the tent,
28:32Lena was turning meat over the fire.
28:34Hearing my voice,
28:35she spun around,
28:37eyes full of malice.
28:44You're really good at pretending.
28:46Acting all devoted to Cass
28:47when you're actually terrified.
28:48What,
28:49Cain suddenly isn't good enough anymore?
28:50So now you're throwing yourself
28:51at that madman?
28:55Her laughter was sharp
28:56and vicious.
28:59Just wait.
29:00When Cass finally snaps,
29:04you'll be the first to die.
29:06Before I could reply,
29:08chaos erupted out.
29:09A guard's panicked voice rang out.
29:12Cain is here!
29:13He brought people with him!
29:21I stepped back.
29:30I yanked open the tent flap
29:32and stepped into the sunlight.
29:33There he was,
29:34Cain.
29:37Surrounded by several thugs,
29:38while the rest of the clan gathered,
29:40watching like it was a show,
29:42Lena rushed over,
29:43forcing a tight smile.
29:49Cain!
29:50You're here to take me away, right?
29:58Cain didn't even glance at her.
30:07He walked straight to me,
30:08dropped to one knee,
30:09and pulled out a ring set
30:10with a large ruby from his coat.
30:12He held it up as if it meant something,
30:17Eve, I messed up.
30:19But,
30:20I'm here now.
30:21Give me another chance.
30:23Form the blood pact with me.
30:25I'll spend the rest of my life
30:26making it up to you.
30:27I swear I'll never let you suffer again.
30:30Disgust churned in my stomach.
30:34I stepped back as if avoiding fire.
30:39I'm the only person I've ever loved.
30:43Have you forgotten?
30:45Weren't you obsessed with Lina?
30:51Cain scrambled to his feet,
30:53Cain scrambled to his feet,
30:53reaching out,
30:54but Lina clung desperately to his arm.
30:58He roared at her desperately.
31:01Eve, please!
31:02It was all a misunderstanding!
31:04No one compares to you!
31:05You're the only person I've ever loved!
31:12Interesting.
31:14That's not what you said before.
31:16You told me that once we formed the pact,
31:19I had to be obedient,
31:20stay quiet,
31:21and never question you and Lina.
31:23I was confused back then!
31:25I didn't mean to hurt you!
31:26Cain, you said you loved me!
31:30You said I was sweeter than Eve!
31:33You promised we'd form the pact
31:35after the blood moon!
31:39Shut up!
31:42Cain slapped her hard,
31:44snapping her head to the side,
31:45the kind of brutal strike I knew all too well.
31:51A red mark swelled on Lina's face.
31:54She clutched her cheek,
31:56stunned.
31:59I'm not a straight!
32:01I'm not!
32:01You bitch!
32:03You seduced me.
32:05If it weren't for you,
32:06Eve would have chosen me long ago!
32:08Still blaming others.
32:17You're nothing but a scheming whore.
32:20You were never worthy of standing by my side.
32:22So he had always known the truth.
32:24Eve.
32:26He just chose to lie.
32:28Again.
32:32How could you ever compare to Eve?
32:34His voice turned cruel.
32:36She's true, able bloodline.
32:37You?
32:38You're just a distant cousin from her mother's side,
32:40a stray the clan took in out of pity.
32:42Did you really think I would form a pact with you?
32:45Lina's face went deathly pale.
32:47She was my mother's distant cousin.
32:49After her parents died,
32:50we took her in like family.
32:51I gave her everything.
32:52Let her shine.
32:53Let her receive praise.
32:54But she was still greedy.
32:56She even tried to steal my blood-packed mate.
32:58Now, exposed in front of everyone,
33:00those stares and whispers stabbed at her like daggers.
33:02I'm not a stray!
33:04I'm not!
33:05She cried out, shaking, her voice breaking in panic.
33:08Kane scoffed.
33:08You thought I couldn't tell?
33:10Your bloodline, your status, none of it compares to Eve's.
33:14You don't even deserve to be her servant, yet you wanted to be my mate.
33:17I'd had enough.
33:20But Kane rushed over and grabbed my wrist.
33:24I hope to see everyone at the ceremony.
33:29Eve, don't go!
33:30You saw?
33:30I'm done with her.
33:32I swear I won't go near her again.
33:33Just give me one more chance.
33:35I pulled my hand back, voice icy.
33:38Kane, show some respect.
33:40I'm about to become your sister-in-law.
33:42I looked him straight in the eyes.
33:44Maybe as the prince's son, you think everything is yours by right.
33:47But there's one thing you'll never get.
33:50He narrowed his eyes.
33:53What?
33:56A second chance.
33:57In this life, there are no second chances.
34:00I made sure every word cut like a knife.
34:06I turned to the crowd, my voice loud and steady.
34:11Cass and I will soon form the Eternal Blood Pact.
34:16I hope to see everyone at the ceremony.
34:24I told the guards, no one was allowed in.
34:29Their drama?
34:31I was done with it.
34:34Warmth blooming in my chest.
34:37On the day of the bonding ceremony, I woke before dawn.
34:42Cass lifted the tent flap and walked in, holding a bouquet of fresh morning star leaves, still dewy, carrying the
34:49wild cell of the dark ancient forest.
34:51He said nothing, simply lifted me into his arms and carried straight toward the statue of the goddess of night.
35:00I looked at his sharp jaw and straight nose, warmth blooming in my chest.
35:06He was nothing like Cain.
35:08He was an ice-forged blade that only melted for me.
35:21On the way to the altar, he suddenly stopped, lowering his head to stare deeply at my neck.
35:26The pulse there beat gently.
35:28His breathing grew heavy, throat bobbing, eyes flashing with raw, almost feral hunger,
35:33as if the next moment he would lower his head and pierce my skin with his fangs,
35:37marking me as his before the ceremony even began.
35:41I want to bite you right now.
35:44I smiled softly and reached up to touch his cheek.
35:49After the ceremony, you can mark me however you want.
35:52His eyes darkened.
35:54He restrained himself and kissed my oarhead before continuing forward.
36:00In that moment, I was absolutely certain I had chosen the right person this life.
36:09He drew a knife from his waist and stabbed it viciously into the ground.
36:17Cain stood directly in front of the goddesses of night statue.
36:21In full ceremonial attire, the silver moon groom emblem shining on his chest,
36:27blocking our path.
36:29No one expected him to actually come and cause trouble.
36:33He had completely lost his mind.
36:39Cass set me down, preparing to step forward alone,
36:43but I grabbed his wrist and walked to his side.
36:46From now on, we face everything together.
36:55He looked up at me.
36:58Morning light poured into his eyes.
37:01Melted gold.
37:03Then Cain saw our joined hands.
37:08His wolf snapped.
37:12He drew a knife from his waist and stabbed it viciously into the ground.
37:36Eve, come with me.
37:38We'll swear before the goddess of night.
37:40You've always been mine!
37:44Cain!
37:45Madness.
37:46The vampire who once tossed me aside was now begging like a beggar.
37:51Cain.
37:53If you're here to witness the ceremony, stay.
37:55But if you're here to ruin it...
38:01Whatever happens next, you brought it on yourself.
38:08Witness.
38:10He roared, voice rising.
38:13You told me you only loved me!
38:17You swore you'd never form a pact with anyone else!
38:21Then he lunged.
38:22Eyes wild, blade flashing.
38:24Cass didn't even blink.
38:25He pulled me behind him and met Cain head on.
38:28The blade brutally struck skin with a dull thud.
38:31He caught it with his bare hand.
38:33Blood poured out instantly, flowing down his finger.
38:36I grabbed his hand.
38:37Are you insane?
38:38Why block with your hand?
38:40Call a healer!
38:41Now!
38:42Cain just stood there, wrecked.
38:44You used to worry about me like this.
38:46Now you won't even look at me.
38:49I stayed facing forward and replied,
38:51He is my blood-packed mate.
38:53If I don't worry about him, who should I worry about?
38:58Guards swarmed in and pinned Cain to the ground.
39:01He struggled and howled like a wild beast.
39:05Then Lena appeared from somewhere, crying as she threw herself at him.
39:09Cain, stop!
39:10I'll go with you!
39:11I'll give up everything!
39:16He shoved her away like trash and screamed at the Goddess of Night statue.
39:20Goddess of Night, hear me!
39:21I was wrong!
39:22Give me one more chance!
39:24I will protect Eve forever!
39:25I swear I'll never let her suffer!
39:26I didn't even glance at him.
39:28The healer was already bandaged Cass's hand.
39:30The silver wound required special ointment and the healer's spiritual power to mend.
39:35Take him away and lock him up.
39:37Let the prince decide what to do after the ceremony.
39:39Suddenly, my voice didn't waver.
39:44Cass used his uninjured hand to take my wrist and led me up to the altar, standing before
39:49the Goddess of Night.
39:54Under her gaze, we completed the bonding ceremony.
40:00Later, I heard that Saron personally gave Cain a brutal punishment before exiling him to
40:05the edge of the dark ancient forest.
40:08Without orders, he was not allowed to enter.
40:11The Silver Moonblood Clan's doors were closed to him forever.
40:15Didn't someone say come to bed earlier?
40:18When night fell, Cass walked in.
40:20I curled up in bed, watching him slam the door shut.
40:25What, now that the ceremony's over, you're planning to stand guard at the door all night?
40:30I patted the spot beside me.
40:34Come here.
40:37Just walked over, pulled off his robe, and let it fall.
40:42His back was covered in muscle and scars.
40:45Some old, some new.
40:46Proof of a warrior.
40:47Arms braced on either side of me, his breath warm with the scent of cedar and blood.
40:52Didn't someone say come to bed earlier?
40:54I looked up at that still, sharp jaw and reached up to touch his ear.
40:57It was burning, just as I thought.
40:59What?
41:01Scared?
41:01You're mine.
41:02What do I have to be scared of?
41:04I want to ask you something.
41:08What?
41:09Back then, the vampire said you were willing to die for Cain.
41:13His fingertips brushed across my collarbone.
41:16His fingers found the ties of my nightgown and pulled.
41:19Have you really let go of those things and of him?
41:23Let go of what?
41:24I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer.
41:26I was blind before.
41:28Now I know who's worth it.
41:29He smiled, low and satisfied.
41:32Smart girl.
41:36Eve, we're going to have an offspring.
41:40His mouth found mine again, hungrier this time.
41:45You don't have to be so gentle with me.
41:47His eyes darkened.
41:53I know.
41:54Afterward, we lay tangled in the messy sheets, his breath hot against my colisphaly.
42:00Then he lowered his head and sunk his fangs into my neck, marking me.
42:08Greater than the stars above
42:10Eve
42:11I love you
42:24Three months later, the healer told me I was carrying his offspring.
42:28For mixed blood vampires, pregnancy was not easy.
42:30It required high compatibility between both bloodlines and a long, careful gestation period.
42:35But the goddess of night had blessed me.
42:37By then, Cass had already taken over his prince.
42:40He froze, staring at my belly.
42:42His hand hovered in the air, trembling.
42:46Touch it, I said, guiding his palm to rest there.
42:51His skin was burning hot, fingers still shaking.
43:00Eve, we're going to have an offspring.
43:03I simply nodded, smiling.
43:09Do you remember?
43:12In the previous life.
43:14Then news came from the eastern plains.
43:16After Cain abandoned Lena, she went mad.
43:19She ran around wildly and eventually disappeared from the Silvermoon blood clan.
43:23Later, the guards found her, her neck torn open by some beast in the dark ancient forest.
43:29On the same day, Cain died.
43:31The autumn rain came fierce and sudden.
43:34A landslide destroyed the edge of the ancient forest.
43:37He was crushed under the rubble.
43:39When the guards found him, one of his legs was mangled, twisted beyond saving.
43:44When I appeared, he lifted a trembling arm.
43:49Eve, you came.
43:52Cass tried to stop me, but I grabbed his wrist.
43:55Let me end this.
43:57Once and for all.
44:02I knelt beside Cain.
44:04Blood was everywhere.
44:06Thick.
44:07Metallic.
44:08Do you remember?
44:10In the previous life.
44:12He coughed up blood, voice broken.
44:15So he remembered too.
44:16Those fragments, those nightmares.
44:18He had just chosen to pretend to forget, to keep playing the arrogant Cain.
44:21Under the goddess of night statue, we formed the blood copped.
44:24You said forever.
44:25Said we'd plant night star flowers in the courtyard.
44:27His fingers clawed at the mud as if digging up ghosts.
44:30You were pregnant.
44:31Her eyes looked like yours.
44:34Chasing fireflies in the courtyard.
44:38Then I smiled.
44:40Cold and sharp.
44:43You locked me up.
44:45I died.
44:46Keep talking.
44:48Maybe one day you'll believe it yourself.
44:52But guess what?
44:54I came back too.
44:56His eyes widened in shock.
44:58Lightning striking him.
45:00You.
45:00You.
45:03I remember everything.
45:06You locked me up.
45:07I died.
45:09Me and our child.
45:11Full of hatred.
45:16But his eyes never left me.
45:18When his final breath left him, his hand was still reaching for me.
45:29The rain poured down fiercely, pounding the rubble, washing away all the rot of the past.
45:35I leaned into Cass's arms, letting his heartbeat ground me.
45:39I was finally free.
45:42I was finally free.
