00:00I am born with the Wolfkins, a scent gift, able to tell all werewolves good from bad simply by their
00:05scent.
00:05Kind werewolves smell sweet. Malicious werewolves smell foul.
00:10Get away from me!
00:11Never reveal a single word about your scent gift to outsiders.
00:14Alpha Kale of the werewolf clan's private birthday dinner.
00:17Why does he smell nothing but bitter?
00:20Let me treat you to this cake.
00:21I just want you to stay sweet and be happy forever.
00:24The Alpha has officially recognized you as his sister and will take...
00:30I am born with the Wolfkins, a scent gift, able to tell all werewolves good from bad simply by their
00:35scent.
00:39Kind werewolves smell sweet.
00:43Malicious werewolves smell foul.
00:45Get away from me!
00:48Why does he smell nothing but bitter?
00:56The last one who gave me sweets wanted me dead.
00:58What are you really after?
01:00I have no ulterior motives at all.
01:02I only wish you endless joy and happiness.
01:09I'm Layla, the only daughter of El Elder Gideon.
01:12I was born with the innate scent gift of the Wolf clan.
01:17Layla, remember well.
01:18Never reveal a single word about your scent gift to outsiders.
01:22If word gets out, it will surely bring endless disasters.
01:26She will turn eighteen soon.
01:28Her sense of smell is extraordinary, yet her inner wolf still refuses to awaken, and she remains as innocent and
01:33naive as a young wolf cub.
01:35I can't keep her confined any longer.
01:37It's all my fault for ruining her.
01:39From then on, my parents no longer kept me confined at home.
01:43They hired private tutors and took me out to unwind.
01:46I was truly happy.
01:48Layla, remember.
01:49If you catch a foul smell on anyone, don't utter a word.
01:52Just tell us quietly when you get home.
01:54Got it, Dad?
01:56Dad always tells me the same stuff every time we head out.
01:59He did it again today, but it felt totally different.
02:02Tonight is Alpha Kale of the Werewolf clan's private birthday dinner.
02:06All high-ranking clan members can bring their families along.
02:09I've heard all about Kyle long ago.
02:11Word has it that young Lord Kyle is utterly ruthless.
02:14Anyone who betrays the clan never gets a good end.
02:16Yeah.
02:17I caught a glimpse of him from afar last time, and I didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
02:21He must reek of a strong, foul odor.
02:33Don't wander off.
02:34Stay close to me.
02:39I heard Alpha will show up in person tonight.
02:41What a rare chance.
02:42It's been ages since there's been such an exclusive private birthday a song.
02:45Quiet.
02:45He's here.
02:48Father, is Mr. Kale coming?
02:50Stand still properly, bow along with everyone, and don't look around casually.
02:58Baby, love me.
03:00Life could be so sweet.
03:04And it's all a shame tonight.
03:09How come there's not even a hint of that foul smell?
03:12Bow your head.
03:13Hurry down.
03:13Don't look.
03:18How many times have I told you never to look straight at the top alpha leader?
03:21Are you out of your mind?
03:23But he's so handsome.
03:25Can I take a few more glances at something this good looking?
03:36Kyle didn't blame me or my dad.
03:38All the rumors about him are fake.
03:40He's neither cruel nor like those gentle, regular werewolves.
03:45Don't go near.
03:46Take the snacks and stroll around with your mother.
04:05Lord Kale, I hear you've been swamped with work lately.
04:09Feel free to tell me if you need any errands run or things sorted out.
04:12Everyone in our branch clan is more than willing to serve you.
04:15No need.
04:17Someone will handle it.
04:18My bad for not thinking it through.
04:20If you're free, our clan just got some rare moonflowers.
04:23We'd love for you to take a look.
04:24I'm not interested.
04:31How did you know I was hiding here?
04:35When he walked closer, I join you caught his due took a scent.
04:38Wasn't stinky nor sweet.
04:40Just a faint bitter smell.
04:42Exactly like the medicine the clandor made for me.
04:47Are you Elder Gideon's daughter, Lila?
04:49Have you ever had desserts?
04:53Why do you ask that all of a sudden?
04:55Let me treat you to this cake.
04:56I've already had some.
04:57It's really sweet.
04:59Lila, you're quite bold indeed.
05:01Thanks for the compliment.
05:04Others have given me sweets before, yet they only meant to hurt me.
05:11What about you?
05:19I just want you to stay sweet and be happy forever.
05:23Lila!
05:24Hey!
05:25Hey, Mommy!
05:27That elder sister was lying to you just now.
05:29Don't trust her at all.
05:31I'm gonna lose it.
05:32I keep playing your music.
05:34What else is that?
05:37Please stop.
05:38The Alpha wants to see Miss Lila privately.
05:41Now?
05:42Yes.
05:42Please follow me.
05:49Why does it still smell so bitter?
05:51Didn't you have any cake?
05:57I heard you're different from other Omegas.
06:01Oh, no.
06:02Does he know I can smell the scent?
06:04You're almost an adult, yet your inner wolf hasn't awakened.
06:07You still have the innocent mind of a young pup.
06:10I got such a fright.
06:12So that's what he was referring to.
06:14The teacher said I'll grow up soon.
06:16I learned to do a Christmas yesterday.
06:22Alpha, Elder Gideon is asking for an audience outside.
06:25My father?
06:27My father?
06:29Your father loves you deeply.
06:31Of course!
06:32My dad is the best father in the world!
06:35Lila, you're so lucky.
06:37I don't have a father.
06:40Then let my dad be your dad, too, okay?
06:42Is that okay?
06:43Sure thing.
06:48Gideon, come in.
06:53Gideon John Lau, Elder Gideon.
06:55I'm quite satisfied with the gift you sent me tonight.
06:57I'm honored you like it.
06:59This sapphire is an exceedingly rare treasure, unmatched anywhere in the world.
07:04I wasn't talking about the sapphire.
07:07It's your daughter, Lila.
07:11She is naive and innocent by nature, knowing little of the clan rules.
07:14If she offends you by accident, I will take full blame for everything.
07:17You are too modest, Elder.
07:19In my eyes, she is extremely intelligent.
07:22He's the first one who ever said I'm clever.
07:24He must be a good person.
07:26Once I chase away the bitter aura ringering on him, I'm sure I can catch his gentle, sweet scent.
07:31Lila also said she wishes you could be my father as well.
07:35Yeah.
07:38It is my fault for failing to discipline her well, letting her act improperly before you.
07:43I beg you not to blame her.
07:47Dad, did I do something wrong again?
07:51Lila is naive and speaks without tact.
07:55It's all my fault.
07:56I beg for your forgiveness.
07:58You're taking this too seriously.
08:00I think Lila is pure and candid, and her words suit my heart perfectly.
08:03I will not punish her at all.
08:05Instead, I intend to reward her.
08:21Miss Lila, the Alpha has officially recognized you as his sister, and will take you to his mansion in three
08:25days.
08:26My Lila.
08:28Doesn't that mean staying together like family every day?
08:31You don't understand.
08:33I'm willing to go.
08:35Truly, I am.
08:36I am.
08:41Just moving in to live with me and being my sister.
08:43Why so scared?
08:43I'm hungry.
08:44I was busy moving things early this morning and haven't eaten anything.
08:49Prepare some food.
08:50All sweet flavored.
09:02Are you full?
09:03Come take a walk with me.
09:04Okay.
09:16Are you sure the Alpha has gone to the other garden?
09:19Yes.
09:25I've waited for two full days yet never got to see him.
09:28What is so special about that girl who was just acknowledged as his sister?
09:31I heard the girl's father is an elder of the clan.
09:33Perhaps the president intends to win him over.
09:36Win him over?
09:36Does she even deserve it?
09:38No one but our family is qualified to stay by his side.
09:41Watch your words, young miss.
09:42It would be inappropriate if word of this gets out.
09:45She's talking about Dad.
09:47Could Dad be in trouble?
09:49Yes.
09:53I didn't mean it.
09:54Please punish only me.
09:56Don't punish my father.
09:57I won't punish you.
09:59But Lila, can you tell me how you knew Alera was here?
10:08After all these years, the original first-racial securities from the exchange actually show up at today's hit option.
10:16Leo, get me an evening gown.
10:17Bring it here now.
10:18Copy that, boss.
10:19I'm heading over now.
10:20Good.
10:20I'll be waiting inside.
10:27Are you okay?
10:28What's where you're going, you idiot?
10:30Ma'am, you're the one who ran into me.
10:36Oh my god, my dress!
10:38Look at you.
10:39What are you, the stable girl?
10:40Do you spend your days mucking out stalls?
10:42Something like that, yeah.
10:44No wonder you smell like horse crap.
10:46You know, my dress costs more than you'd make in a lifetime of shoveling manure.
10:51Look, my job isn't your concern, and I'm not the one who ripped your dress.
10:54I don't care!
10:55You're paying for this!
10:56Right here, right now!
10:58You tripped on your own skirt.
11:00Why on earth would I pay for that?
11:04Because I said so!
11:05Now pay up, or I'll keep hitting you until you do.
11:19Is that Rella Lane, the CEO of Northstone Construction?
11:24Ms. Lane!
11:25What a small world!
11:26I was just thinking we should find a way to work together.
11:29Mom.
11:30Mom?
11:37Did you do this?
11:38I...
11:40I...
11:43Ms. Lane!
11:44It's a mistake!
11:45It's all a big misunderstanding!
11:47Get her out of my sight.
11:48Make sure she never shows her face again.
11:52Mom, what are you even doing here?
11:53I have some business to take care of.
11:55The Mercer family booked this entire hotel for a charity auction.
11:58What business could you possibly have here?
12:00I know.
12:01I'm actually here for the auction.
12:03Madam.
12:04I know.
12:05Look, Mom.
12:06Tonight's auction is a gathering of the elite.
12:08Even the Secretary of the Treasury is coming.
12:10You really should just head back and look after your horses.
12:24Is that Rella Lane, the New York Rising Star?
12:26She's a real role model for young women.
12:29She's new money.
12:30Since when does a social climber like her belong in our circle?
12:33I heard Liam personally hand-delivered her invitation.
12:37You think he's actually into her?
12:39Liam?
12:40Into a classless, new-money brat like her?
12:43Please.
12:44He has way more taste than that.
12:47This is gonna be fun.
12:51I'm sorry.
12:52You're not authorized to enter.
12:55I have an invitation.
12:58Excuse me.
12:58She's...
12:59I'm her mother.
13:04Right.
13:05She's my mother.
13:08Wow, Rella.
13:09I didn't realize your mother was the help from the stables.
13:18What's so funny?
13:20Rella, you've got it all wrong.
13:22This is a charity auction, not a ranch.
13:24Even if you want to sneak your mom in for a free meal, you could at least get her a
13:27decent dress.
13:30What is all this noise?
13:32What's going on?
13:35You.
13:36The stable hand.
13:38What are you doing in here?
13:44Mrs. Mercer.
13:45She's actually Rella's mother.
13:48She's your mother?
13:53Mrs. Mercer, yes.
13:55She is my mother.
13:59Don't be mad, Mrs. Mercer.
14:01I'm sure Rella just wants to show her mother how the other half lives.
14:11Rella, use some common sense.
14:12Is this really the place for a family field trip?
14:18Look, as a mother, coming from the bottom is one thing.
14:22But at least stop being such a burden to your daughter.
14:25I think you're all mistaken.
14:26I'm an invited guest as well.
14:28Mom!
14:29Stop talking nonsense!
14:31This is my invitation.
14:36Mom!
14:37Tonight's invitations aren't even gold!
14:39Stop it!
14:43Is that...
14:44Wait!
14:50Wow, look at this shiny gold invitation.
14:53It sure looks nothing like our green ones.
14:56It's a pretty good fake.
14:57Too bad.
14:58They don't even know what color the real invitations are.
15:01It isn't a fake.
15:02Liam is the one who...
15:04Mom, can you just stop talking?
15:06Mom!
15:11Mom!
15:12Mom!
15:12Mom!
15:12Mom!
15:13Mom!
15:13I'm so sorry.
15:14I take my mother and leave right now.
15:16Wait!
15:17I apologize for my rudeness.
15:19Thank you for joining us tonight.
15:23What the hell?
15:24Why is Mrs. Mercer acting so respectful to a stable hand?
15:27Ugh.
15:27I bet Mrs. Mercer just wants to avoid a scandal tonight.
15:30That's the only reason she lets her off the hook.
15:34Rila, take good care of your mother.
15:36Ma'am, please make yourself at home.
15:42Go check which VIP guests Liam gives the gold invitations to.
15:51Mom, where do you get this invitation?
15:52Liam gives it to...
15:54Oh!
15:55Oh!
15:56Liam!
16:08You like Liam, don't you?
16:12Please.
16:14Even if Rala likes him, so what?
16:16The class gaps between your families is massive.
16:19True.
16:20Liam's status is a bit low, but as long as my daughter likes him, that's all that matters.
16:30Mom, just stop talking.
16:33Sure.
16:34A New York Titan is totally beneath a bunch of stable hands.
16:38So?
16:39Do you like him or not?
16:41Liam is the heir to the Mercer family.
16:43There is no us.
16:44It's impossible.
16:47Rala, don't worry about status.
16:49You have me.
16:50Go after him.
16:53Come on, your daughter has way more self-awareness than you.
16:55At least she knows who's in her league and who's off limits.
16:57What century are we in?
16:59Since when does love come with a background check?
17:01Rala.
17:02If you like him, tell him.
17:04You are my daughter.
17:09Hey, why don't you give her a little bush?
17:15Liam.
17:17Mom, don't go over there.
17:21Touch my mother again and see what happens.
17:23I'm done being nice to you too.
17:27Who is she?
17:28Does she really just call Mr. Mercer by his first name?
17:30Didn't you hear?
17:30That's Rala's mother.
17:31Imagine being that successful and having a stable hand for a mother.
17:34What a nightmare.
17:40I am so sorry, Liam.
17:46Mrs. Lane, it is such an honor to have you at our family's charity gala.
17:58Ethan, I'm asking one last time.
18:00Can you make it back for the noon ceremony or not?
18:02If you don't want to lose me, then postpone the wedding.
18:04If you can't make it back today, we're done.
18:07Who says I'm not getting married?
18:09What?
18:10I dialed my arch nemesis, Orion Silvermoon.
18:13Yeah, it's me.
18:14I'm short a groom for today's mating ceremony.
18:17Mr. Orion Silvermoon, would you mind attending my wedding and signing a mating contract?
18:21I do.
18:22But let me make this clear.
18:23I'm not being just a tool.
18:24I want a real one.
18:26Don't be petty.
18:27If you don't want to lose me, then postpone the mating ceremony.
18:29Then postpone the mating ceremony.
18:32I called my seven-year nemesis instead.
18:34I'm short a groom for today's mating ceremony.
18:37Care to do me a favor?
18:39Sylvia's really running a fever and her wolf is weak.
18:43Every time she's been sick since we were kids, I've been by her side.
18:46I can't rest easy otherwise.
18:50Ethan's voice came through the phone, but it couldn't hurt me anymore.
18:54On my birthday, Sylvia got jostled at the high-end ball and ended up with bruises on
18:58her arm.
18:59He left me that same night to go tend to her dot on our anniversary.
19:02Sylvia got gossiped about at moonlight for me.
19:05Bring what Rukul call called an omega who latches onto others.
19:08She felt so wronged.
19:10Ethan left me to comfort her the entire night.
19:13Even the night before our wedding, Sylvia said she had a fever.
19:18He dropped me immediately and traveled across miles just to sit by her bedside.
19:26Have you?
19:29Ethan, I'm asking one last time.
19:31Can you make it back for the noon ceremony or not?
19:34Three hours to the nearest airport.
19:35I can't make it.
19:37Just postpone the ceremony for one day, all right?
19:41Postpone?
19:42My family is decorating the wedding house with me right now.
19:45All our pack members and guests are either at the Moon Bloom altar already or on their
19:48way.
19:50You're telling me to postpone?
19:52What am I supposed to tell them?
19:57Lydia?
19:57Tell them what?
19:59That my fiancée is a thousand miles away with another she-wolf?
20:03That you're a cheating fiancée?
20:05That she's a slut who stole you?
20:08Lydia, what's between me and Sylvia isn't what you think.
20:11Don't be so petty.
20:16Petty?
20:17You and Sylvia should just get married on the spot, signing your mate bond right now.
20:21Why waste all these years of mine?
20:22Four years.
20:23I've watched their acting for four years.
20:24I'm tired.
20:25I delivered my final ultimatum dot.
20:26If you can't make it back today, we're done.
20:29Lydia, I understand you're emotionally unstable out of your jealousy, but like I said, I just
20:33can't make it back.
20:34If you don't want to lose me, then postpone the wedding.
20:38With that, he hung up in a huffed dot, as if I was the one in the wrong all along
20:42dot.
20:42It's wrong.
20:43I brought this on, Seth dot, but from now on, never again.
20:46People rushed in through the door.
20:48They saw the smashed picture frames and froze.
20:51Lydia, what happened?
20:52What did that bastard Ethan say?
20:55Don't hurt yourself.
20:57Let me smash.
20:59The wedding room was a disaster zone.
21:03Forget it.
21:04No wedding is better than this.
21:05I will tell your father to explain it to your grandfather.
21:11Who says I'm not getting married?
21:16I dialed my arch nemesis, Orion Silvermoon, the Silvermoon noble representative on the council.
21:21Future Duke of Silvermoon dot back in school, I came from Shadowmoon commoners.
21:25He was Silvermoon nobility.
21:27We fought for every ranking.
21:28On the council, I represented the Shadowmoon district, while he led the younger generation
21:33of the noble faction.
21:34We argued countless times.
21:36For years, he blocked what was mine, and I took what was his.
21:39Everyone thought we were fire and ice.
21:45I was about to hang up when it connected.
21:48His voice carried a hint of hesitation.
21:50Hello?
21:51Lydia?
21:52Whatever.
21:53Orion Silvermoon was the only one I could think of who might actually say yes.
21:57When he found out I was getting married, he joked.
22:01Wouldn't it be great if you married me instead?
22:04Then we wouldn't have to be arch enemies anymore, mating each other and becoming power couple.
22:08Today, I could lose love, but I could not lose my dignity dot.
22:12This wedding must happen.
22:15Yeah, it's me.
22:16I- I'm short a groom for today's mating ceremony, Mr. Orion Silvermoon.
22:21Would you mind attending my wedding and signing a mating contract with me?
22:24Lydia, signing a mating contract?
22:26One second.
22:27Two seconds.
22:28Three.
22:29My heart pounded harder.
22:30Disappointment started to creep in.
22:33Lydia, what kind of joke is this?
22:35If- if you don't want to, then forget-
22:37I do.
22:39You- you said yes?
22:41Yeah, I said yes.
22:43But, let me make this clear.
22:45I'm not being just a tool.
22:47What do you mean?
22:48Orion Silvermoon.
22:49Doesn't wed a fake mate.
22:50I want a real one.
22:52Someone who can lie beside me.
22:54Someone I can feel flesh and blood, warmth.
22:57You understand?
22:59Deal.
23:02Deal.
23:03Deal.
23:06So, what do I need to do now?
23:07Get to the Moonbloom altar before 11 a.m. for our ceremony.
23:13Also, we need a wedding house.
23:14Got it.
23:15Leave that to me.
23:16I promise you won't be disappointed.
23:21Orion Silvermoon?
23:22Is that the same Orion Silvermoon you call your arch-nemese on the Council?
23:25Yes.
23:26But that- that can't work.
23:27What if he takes advantage of you?
23:29What if he screws you over?
23:30Why not?
23:31Auntie, I think it's great!
23:32Orion Silvermoon.
23:33The Council represent us just like Lydia, and he is the only heir of the Duke of Silvermoon.
23:38Way better than that two-tipping jerk, Ethan Ashford, who thinks his diplomatic official
23:42title makes him special.
23:43Orion Silvermoon and I were just using each other, Dot.
23:47But it didn't matter.
23:48All I wanted was for this ceremony to go on.
23:52You'd better think carefully.
23:53If you don't postpone and end up without a mate at the altar, your family will be the
23:57one humiliated in public.
23:58Either way, the Ashford family won't be attending.
24:01The wedding will not be delayed.
24:03Stop throwing a tantrum.
24:04Don't be so unreasonable.
24:05The Ashford family has noble blesestery.
24:08We're a political dynasty now.
24:09Everyone who married to our family is well-behaved and obedient.
24:12Lydia, you aren't checking to woman's amli.
24:14You shia sohi rawrink.
24:15Gaipan nigga fierce now.
24:17I hung up.
24:17Couldn't be bothered to listen to their nonsense anymore.
24:21Dot Mary into the Ashford family and suffer dream on...
24:30Don't be petty.
24:31If you don't want to lose me, then postpone the mating ceremony.
24:33Then postpone the mating ceremony.
24:36I called my seven-year nemesis instead.
24:38I'm short a groom for today's mating ceremony.
24:41Care to do me a favor?
24:43Sylvia's really running a fever, and her wolf is weak.
24:47Every time she's been sick since we were kids, I've been by her side.
24:50I can't rest easy otherwise.
24:54Ethan's voice came through the phone, but it couldn't hurt me anymore.
24:57On my birthday, Sylvia got jostled at the high-end ball and ended up with bruises on her arm.
25:03He left me that same night to go tend to her dot on our anniversary.
25:06Sylvia got gossiped about at Moonlight Fleming,
25:08bring what Rukulkol called an Omega, who latches onto others.
25:12She felt so wronged.
25:15Ethan left me to comfort her the entire night.
25:18Even the night before our wedding, Sylvia said she had a fever.
25:22He dropped me immediately and traveled across miles just to sit by her bedside.
25:31Ethan, I'm asking one last time.
25:35Can you make it back for the noon ceremony or not?
25:38Three hours to the nearest airport.
25:39I can't make it.
25:41Just postpone the ceremony for one day, all right?
25:45Postpone?
25:45My family is decorating the wedding house with me right now.
25:49All our pack members and guests are either at the Moonbloom altar already or on their way.
25:54You're telling me to postpone?
25:56What am I supposed to tell them?
26:01Lydia?
26:02Tell them what?
26:03That my fiancé is a thousand miles away with another she-wolf?
26:07That you're a cheating fiancé?
26:09That she's a slut who stole you?
26:12Lydia, what's between me and Sylvia isn't what you think.
26:15Don't be so petty.
26:20Petty?
26:21You and Sylvia should just get married on the spot, signing your mate bond right now.
26:25Why waste all these years of mine?
26:26Four years.
26:27I've watched their acting for four years.
26:28I'm tired.
26:29I delivered my final ultimatum dot.
26:30If you can't make it back today, we're done.
26:33Lydia, I understand you're emotionally unstable out of your jealousy.
26:36But like I said, I just can't make it back.
26:38If you don't want to lose me, then postpone the wedding.
26:42With that, he hung up in a huffed dot, as if I was the one in the wrong all-along
26:46dot.
26:46It's wrong.
26:47I brought this on, Seth Dot, but from now on, never again.
26:50People rushed in through the door.
26:52They saw the smashed picture frames and froze.
26:55Lydia, what happened?
26:56What did that bastard Ethan say?
26:59Don't hurt yourself.
27:00Let me smash.
27:03The wedding room was a disaster zone.
27:07Forget it.
27:08No wedding is better than this.
27:09I will tell your father to explain it to your grandfather.
27:15Who says I'm not getting married?
27:16What?
27:20I dialed my arch nemesis, Orion Silvermoon, the Silvermoon Noble representative on the council.
27:25Future Duke of Silvermoon dot back in school.
27:28I came from Shadowmoon commoners.
27:29He was Silvermoon nobility.
27:31We fought for every ranking.
27:32On the council, I represented the Shadowmoon district.
27:35While he led the younger generation of the noble faction.
27:38We argued countless times.
27:40For years, he blocked what was mine, and I took what was his.
27:43Everyone thought we were fire and ice.
27:49I was about to hang up when it connected.
27:52His voice carried a hint of hesitation.
27:54Hello?
27:55Lydia?
27:56Whatever.
27:57Orion Silvermoon was the only one I could think of who might actually say yes.
28:01When he found out I was getting married, he joked.
28:04Wouldn't it be great if you married me instead?
28:07Then we wouldn't have to be arch enemies anymore, mating each other and becoming power couple.
28:12Today, I could lose love, but I could not lose my dignity dot.
28:16This wedding must happen.
28:19Yeah, it's me.
28:20I, I'm short a groom for today's mating ceremony.
28:23Mr. Orion Silvermoon, would you mind attending my wedding and signing a mating contract with me?
28:28Lydia, signing a mating contract?
28:30One second, two seconds, three, my heart pounded harder.
28:34Disappointment started to creep in.
28:37Lydia, what kind of joke is this?
28:39If, if you don't want to, then forget-
28:41I do.
28:43You, you said yes?
28:45Yeah, I said yes, but let me make this clear.
28:48I'm not being just a tool.
28:51What do you mean?
28:52Orion Silvermoon doesn't wed a fake mate.
28:54I want a real one.
28:56Someone who can lie beside me.
28:58Someone I can feel flesh and blood, warmth.
29:01You understand?
29:03Deal.
29:06Deal.
29:10So, what do I need to do now?
29:11Get to the Moonbloom altar before 11am for our ceremony.
29:16Also, we need a wedding house.
29:18Got it.
29:19Leave that to me.
29:20I promise you won't be disappointed.

30:42I'm short a groom for today's mating ceremony.

35:35What if he takes advantage of you?
35:37What if he screws you over?
35:38Why not?

35:39I think it's great.
35:40Orion Silvermoon.
35:41The council represent us just like Lydia,
35:43and he is the only heir of the Duke of Silvermoon.
35:46Way better than that two-tipping jerk,
35:47Ethan Ashford,

36:11Stop throwing a tantrum.
36:12Don't be so unreasonable.
36:13The Ashford family has noble blessestry.
36:15We're a palindical dynasty now.
36:17Everyone who married to our family is well-behaved and obedient.
36:20Lydia,
36:20you aren't jacking to women's amli.
36:22You shall so he raw rink.
36:23Guy-pian-nigga fierce now.
36:25I hung up.
36:25Couldn't be bothered to listen to their nonsense anymore.
36:28Dot marry into the Ashford family
36:30and suffer dream on...
36:34I'll come back and bind with you.
36:36Everyone thought I'd swallow my pride
36:37and wait until the next moon.
36:39After all,
36:39I'd already waited for seven years.
36:41But that night,
36:42I took a ship across the western fjords
36:44for an arranged marriage.
36:46I showed up to the great solstice feast alone.
36:48The second Soren saw me,
36:49his eyes lit up.
36:50You said you didn't want to come,
36:51but here you are.
36:52Where do you think you're going?
36:53I shook his hand off.
36:54Those are your seats.
36:56Mine is over there.
36:56I pointed straight at the high jar's carved oak table.
36:59Ingrid shot me a venomous glare.
37:00How dare you wear that armbrake!
37:02I made the entire mead hall turn to look at us.
37:04Wait,
37:04is that the tear of Yigazigh?
37:07We were supposed to bind our souls
37:08at the temple of the Allfather that day.
37:10But my betrothed threw me out of the sacred grounds,
37:13then walked in with his childhood sweetheart instead.
37:17He looked at me like it was nothing.
37:19Ingrid's child needs a father,
37:20so she could stay in the clan.
37:21Once we sever the blood oath,
37:22I'll come back and bind with you.
37:26Everyone thought I'd swallow my pride
37:28and wait until the next moon.
37:29After all,
37:30I'd already waited for seven years.
37:34But that night,
37:36I took a ship across the western fjords
37:37for an arranged marriage.
37:39I vanished from his world completely.
37:43Three years later,
37:44my husband and I flew our dragons
37:46back to the mainland
37:47for a grand ancestral blot.
37:49My husband had an urgent border skirmish
37:51to attend to,
37:52so he sent a beast and a handler
37:53to escort me.
37:54I walked out of the dragon docks.
37:56I walked into the arrival's courtyard
37:58and saw a warrior holding a parchment
38:00bearing my runic crest.
38:02I walked over and froze.
38:03Holding the parchment
38:04was my ex-betrothal Sorin.
38:06He was craning his neck,
38:07looking past me
38:08at the incoming whitens.
38:09He had Ingrid with him
38:10and half his old raiding party.
38:11One of the warriors nudged him.
38:13Sorin,
38:13isn't that your clinging admirer?
38:15That's Astrid.
38:15Sorin looked at me.
38:16He looked surprised for a split second.
38:18Then he smirked.
38:20I told you all long ago.
38:21I knew she'd call back.
38:22The whole raiding party
38:23burst out laughing.
38:25Astrid vanished without a trace.
38:26Now she sees Sorden has plundered gold.
38:28She probably cries herself
38:29to sleep every night.
38:33One of them looked me up and down.
38:34Astrid,
38:35if you're here to see Sorden,
38:36why show up in plain wool?
38:38Couldn't you at least
38:38paint your face with war colours?
38:40Without Sorden,
38:41you can't even barter
38:42for a nice cloak.
38:44Pathetic.
38:45It was true.
38:46I used to spend hours
38:48getting ready for Seden.
38:49Full braided hair,
38:50clan paints,
38:51fitted leathers and furs.
38:53Always making sure
38:53I looked perfect for him.
38:55But I didn't need to do that anymore
38:56because I'm pregnant.
38:59And my husband refused
39:00to let me ride uncomfortably.
39:01He banned heavy chainmail
39:03and had this plain toked
39:04spun by the light elves of Alfheim
39:06just for me.
39:07Listening to them mock me,
39:08it suddenly clicked.
39:09They only read the ruse
39:10on the garrison's dispatch.
39:11They had no idea
39:12the noble they were picking up
39:14was me.
39:18Since I wasn't saying anything,
39:19an old mutual friend
39:20stepped in,
39:21trying to play peacemaker.
39:23Astrid,
39:24glad to see you back.
39:24Solon actually spent years
39:26looking for you.
39:27He has been asking
39:27about you everywhere.
39:29Solon's smug smile stiffened.
39:30He cleared his throat
39:31and acted casually.
39:32Ingrid's kid starts
39:33shield training next week.
39:34From now on,
39:35you're getting him
39:35to the training grounds.
39:36He was still so
39:37incredibly arrogant.
39:39But I wasn't that
39:40naive little girl anymore.
39:41Looking at him now,
39:42I just felt exhausted
39:43and disgusted.
39:44I didn't want to waste
39:45another second on them.
39:46I was just about to tell them
39:47exactly who I was,
39:48but Ingrid beat me to it.
39:51Astrid,
39:52please don't be mad at Soren.
39:53He's just trying
39:54to take care of you.
39:55You disappeared
39:55for three winters.
39:57What kind of shady taverns
39:58have you been staying at?
39:59Look at you.
40:01Solon wanted to make you
40:02his personal scribe,
40:03but clearly you're not a fit.
40:04Don't worry.
40:05Being my Thrail is an honour.
40:06No one will look down on you.
40:09Three years apart,
40:10she's still as arrogant as ever.
40:12She still makes me cringe.
40:13Soren saw my scound
40:14and thought I was just jealous.
40:16His eyes flashed with triumph.
40:18All right, Astrid,
40:19drop the attitude.
40:20You clearly can't survive
40:20out in the wilds.
40:21So hold your temper.
40:23Take care of the kid
40:24and learn your place.
40:25Don't worry.
40:26I got a perfect cot for you,
40:27just in the dragon pens.
40:30The whole group
40:31howled with laughter.
40:33By Thor, Astrid,
40:34show some appreciation.
40:36He's giving you
40:36free meat and mead.
40:37Isn't that better
40:38than wherever you're living now?
40:39Ingrid touched
40:40her gold-forged earring,
40:41putting on an affected tone.
40:43Don't you worry, dear.
40:44If my son acts up,
40:45I'll make sure he still behave.
40:46He won't let it out on you,
40:47I promise.
40:49Soren let out a cold laugh
40:50and shot me a glance.
40:51Why's that?
40:52She was always so stubborn,
40:53ran away over
40:53a tiny little misunderstanding.
40:54If she hit rock bottom out there,
40:56she deserves to suffer a little.
40:57Hearing that,
40:58my heart actually skipped a beat.
41:00After three years,
41:01he still thought
41:01ditching me at the Temple
41:02of the Allfather for Ingrid
41:04was just a tiny little misunderstanding.
41:06Soren,
41:06the one I had fallen in love with,
41:08was gone.
41:10He wasn't the boy
41:11who carried me
41:11across the frozen tundra,
41:12ignoring his own
41:13bleeding frostbite.
41:14He wasn't the broken youth
41:16who promised me
41:16the Nine Realms.
41:17He wasn't the warrior
41:18who,
41:19despite all his glory
41:20and spoils,
41:21was still willing
41:22to do game for me.
41:23But whatever.
41:24It was all in the past.
41:25None of it mattered anymore.
41:27Besides,
41:28I'm about to give birth
41:29to my second child.
41:30Pushed my feelings down.
41:32I didn't want to argue with him.
41:33It was pointless.
41:33Aren't you here
41:34to guide me to the keep?
41:35Let's go.
41:35They exchanged looks.
41:36Then they burst out laughing.
41:37Guide you?
41:38What a joke.
41:38She pointed at the runic parchment.
41:40Read it carefully.
41:41We are waiting for Lady Varg.
41:42Do you even know who that is?
41:43Varg was my new name.
41:44Of course I knew.
41:45Lady Varg is the matriarch
41:46of the Black Dragon Clan.
41:48She is the actual wife
41:49of Hyald Gul'da Varg.
41:50Gul'da Varg is a ruthless warlord,
41:51but he's completely obsessed
41:53with his wife.
41:53I heard he stayed solitary
41:54for years.
41:55Just waiting for her.
41:56Everyone in the realm
41:57knows the rule.
41:58Don't.
41:58Try to kiss up to Gondar.
42:00Kiss up to Lady Varg.
42:01She is his entire world.
42:02Listening to them gossip
42:03about my marriage.
42:04I couldn't help it.
42:05To win his wife's heart.
42:07Goran Varg
42:07bartered with the dwarves
42:08of Svotalfard
42:09for a custom arm ring.
42:10It's called
42:10the Tear of Yigodaski.
42:11It costs 20 chests of gold.
42:13Lady Varg is literally
42:14the most envied woman
42:15in Midlad.
42:16Her eyes darted down
42:17to my wrist.
42:18She let out a sharp gasp.
42:20That's the exact same arm has...
42:22It's a pretty good fake.
42:24Which broke stable boy
42:25bought this for you?
42:25Buying you a cheap iron knockoff.
42:28Absolute trash.
42:29I snatched my hand back
42:31and gently rubbed
42:32the arm ring on my wrist.
42:34I smirked,
42:35seeing my happy,
42:36unfazed smile.
42:38Sorin's eyes narrowed
42:39in pure rage.
42:40He lunged forward.
42:42He grabbed my wrist
42:42with a crushing grip
42:43and violently ripped
42:44the arm ring off my arm.
42:45Ingrid eagerly stepped forward.
42:46She snatched the arm ring
42:47from Solon's hand
42:48and started playing with it.
42:49Look, a high quality fake.
42:50Way better than the replica
42:51I bought from that merchant.
42:52But I'd never actually wear mine
42:53in the great hall.
42:54How embarrassing.
42:55These foreign knockoffs
42:56are more detailed.
42:57The weight actually feels real.
42:59She gave me a mocking,
43:00sickly sweet smile.
43:01Oh what, Astrea?
43:02Are you saying
43:03you're the real Lady Varg?
43:04Are you the legendary
43:05warlord's wife?
43:06The second she said it,
43:07the raiding party erupted
43:08into hysterical laughter.
43:10Gunnan Varg was a feared conqueror.
43:12He was ruthless
43:13and unstoppable.
43:14And three years ago,
43:15I was just a pathetic nobody.
43:16The loser who got dumped
43:17at the temple.
43:18Ingrid spun the priceless
43:19arm ring around her finger.
43:20Astrid!
43:21Sell this fake to me!
43:22I'll pay you double.
43:23I panicked,
43:24terrified she was gonna drop it.
43:25Give that back right now!
43:27Gunnar gave that to me!
43:28Shut your mouth!
43:30Sorin glared at me
43:31like I was insane.
43:32Astrid, have you gone mad?
43:33How dare you just drop
43:34Lord Varg's name like that?
43:35Are you trying to get me
43:35sent to Valhalla early?
43:36His warrior buddies
43:37stared at me with pure rage.
43:39Do you have any idea
43:40how hard we fought
43:41for this escort duty?
43:42Gunnar Varg conquered
43:43Sorin's clan last harvest.
43:44Our entire livelihood
43:45depends on him now.
43:47The only way Sorin
43:47keeps his commander spot
43:48is if we impress Lady Varg.
43:51And you're out here
43:51spreading psychotic rumors
43:53that you know the high yearn?
43:54Are you trying to ruin
43:55Solon's honor?
43:55My stare must have been
43:56dead cold
43:57because Sorin frowned.
43:58A flicker of genuine panic
44:00flashed across his eyes.
44:01You ungrateful wretch!
44:02Solon was kind enough
44:03to offer you a roof to survive.
44:05Don't push it.
44:05I know you're bitter
44:06about the past.
44:07But trying to sabotage
44:08his command out of
44:09petty revenge?
44:10That's sick.
44:11Sora shook his head
44:12in disgust.
44:12You're such a jealous shrew.
44:14But this time
44:15he didn't keep screaming at me.
44:16He went quiet for a second.
44:17Then he pulled out
44:18a heavy pouch from his belt.
44:19He tossed a bag
44:20of pure silver pieces
44:21right at my chest.
44:23For the sake of our past bond
44:25I'll let this slide.
44:26Take the silver.
44:26Go get some decent cloaks.
44:28If you really don't want
44:29to tend the pens for Ingrid's kid
44:30I'll have you sent
44:30to the kitchens next week.
44:32Watching him play
44:32the generous saviour
44:33made my stomach turn.
44:34The whole group watched me
44:36waiting for me to grovel
44:37and take the pouch.
44:38Instead
44:38I kicked it away.
44:39I reached over.
44:40No thank you commander.
44:41Seems like
44:42you need it more than I do.
44:43Siren's face turned bright red.
44:45I ignored him
44:45and turned to walk away.
44:47But I barely made it
44:48two steps
44:49before he grabbed my arm.
44:51Astrid!
44:52What is your problem?
44:53Commander?
44:54What do you mean?
44:55I pulled my arm free.
44:56We broke our oaths
44:57three years ago.
44:58It's better if we keep our distance.
45:00I wouldn't want anyone
45:01to get the wrong idea.
45:02I was thinking about
45:02my fiercely loyal
45:03slightly jealous
45:04dragon lord husband.
45:05But Solren glanced over
45:06at Ingrid.
45:07He looked like he had
45:08it all figured out.
45:09The Yars are hosting
45:09a great solstice feast
45:10for Lord Varg in three days.
45:12I was actually planning
45:12to bring you to my table
45:13to let you experience
45:14true grand ceremony.
45:15But you'd need to buy
45:16a decent dress.
45:18I can't have you
45:19embarrassing me.
45:20I cut him off immediately.
45:21With all respect
45:22I really don't need it.
45:24Hearing me reject him again
45:26Solren grew annoyed.
45:28He was grinding his teeth.
45:30Astrid,
45:30you've grown a spine
45:31haven't you?
45:32It's true what they say.
45:33The poorer you get
45:34the bigger your attitude.
45:36Fine!
45:36If you don't want to go
45:37forget it!
45:38I'll take Ingrid.
45:39Hearing that she got
45:40to attend the High Jars feast
45:41Ingrid's eyes lit up.
45:42Solren!
45:42I promise I'll be perfect!
45:44I absolutely won't
45:45embarrass you!
45:46I was so incredibly
45:47done with them.
45:48I turned around
45:49and strode away
45:50but I tossed one last
45:51look over my shoulder.
45:53I'm looking forward
45:54seeing you both
45:55in three days.
45:55I practically sprinted
45:57out of the courtyard
45:57hitting the crisp
45:58freezing air outside
45:59finally pushing down
46:00the nauseous churning
46:01in my stomach.
46:02My mind flashed back
46:03to three years ago.
46:04My clan had been
46:05pressuring me
46:05into an arranged marriage
46:06across the sea.
46:07I fought them on it.
46:08I begged Sudden
46:09my betrotho of seven years
46:10to just run away
46:11with me into the forests
46:12to swear oaths
46:14and be together forever.
46:15But when I showed up
46:16at the temple
46:16of the Allfather
46:17he brought Ingrid.
46:18He told me her child
46:19needed a father
46:20under clan law.
46:21He told me he'd
46:21sever the tie to her
46:22in Amun's time
46:23and bond with me then.
46:24He told me not
46:25to overthink it.
46:25Watching him hold her hand
46:26and walk up to the altar
46:28I realized what a fool
46:29I've been.
46:29I sailed across
46:30the western fjords
46:31for a blind arrangement
46:32that very night.
46:33Amun later
46:33I married Gunnar Varg.
46:35A year later
46:35we had our firstborn
46:36and now I'm pregnant
46:37with our second.
46:38Honestly
46:39if it wasn't for
46:40Guller's ancestral blot
46:41I definitely wouldn't
46:42have seen Sauron
46:43ever again.
46:43Three days later
46:44I showed up
46:44to the great solstice feast
46:46alone
46:46wearing light face paint
46:47and my custom
46:48Ellen spun tunic.
46:50The second Sauron saw me
46:51his eyes lit up.
46:52A smug smirk
46:53spread across his face.
46:55You said you didn't
46:55want to come
46:56but here you are.
46:58Listen
46:58if you want me back
47:00you need to at least
47:00dress the part
47:01to match my new status.
47:03I brushed off
47:04his arrogance
47:04and tried to pass him.
47:06He stopped me angrily
47:06after just two steps.
47:08Astrid
47:09I'm talking to you.
47:11Our seats are right here.
47:12Where do you think
47:12you're going?
47:13I shook his hand off.
47:14Those are your seats.
47:15Mine is over there.
47:16I pointed straight
47:17at the high jaw's
47:18carved oak table.
47:19Sauron's face
47:19instantly dark.
47:20Ingrid shot me
47:21a venomous glare.
47:22She pointed directly
47:22at my wrist
47:23and yelled
47:23at the top of her lungs.
47:24Astrid
47:25how did you sneak in here?
47:26Are you here
47:27to ruin everything?
47:28How dare you
47:29wear that arm ring?
47:30Her screeching
47:31made the entire
47:31mead hall turn
47:32to look at us.
47:33People immediately
47:33started whispering.
47:35Wait
47:35is that the tear
47:36of Yigazic?
47:37Lord Varg forged
47:38that for his wife.
47:39Tonight is Lady Varg's
47:40first public appearance.
47:41Is this girl
47:42trying to mock
47:42the high yell's wife?
47:43She sneaked past
47:44the guards?
47:44Is she trying
47:45to humiliate us
47:46in front of Lord Varg?
47:47One of the elder warriors
47:48turned to Sauron.
47:50Commander?
47:51Is this young lady
47:52of your clan?
47:52Sauron saw that
47:53I wasn't even looking
47:54at him.
47:54He adjusted
47:55his expensive fur cloak
47:56and said coldly.
47:57No.
47:58I don't know her.
47:58Hearing that
47:59Ingrid looked
48:00completely thrilled.
48:01She lifted her chin
48:01and sneered at me.
48:02Take that fake arm ring
48:03off and get out!
48:05Three days later
48:05I showed up
48:06to the great solstice feast
48:07alone wearing
48:08light face paint
48:09and my custom
48:09elenspun tunic.
48:11The second Sauron
48:12saw me
48:12his eyes lit up.
48:14A smug smirk
48:15spread across his face.
48:16You said you didn't
48:17want to come
48:17but here you are.
48:19Listen,
48:20if you want me back
48:21you need to at least
48:22dress the part
48:23to match my new status.
48:24I brushed off
48:25his arrogance
48:26and tried to pass him.
48:27He stopped me
48:28angrily after just
48:28two steps.
48:29Astrid!
48:30I'm talking to you!
48:32Our seats are right here!
48:33Where do you think
48:34you're going?
48:34I shook his hand off.
48:36Those are your seats.
48:37Mine is over there.
48:38I pointed straight
48:38at the high jar's
48:39carved oak table.
48:40Sauron's face
48:41instantly dark.
48:42Ingrid shot me
48:42a venomous glare.
48:43She pointed directly
48:44at my wrist
48:44and yelled
48:45at the top
48:45of her lungs.
48:46Astrid,
48:46how did you sneak
48:47in here?
48:48Are you here
48:48to ruin everything?
48:50How dare you
48:51wear that arm ring?
48:52Her screeching
48:52made the entire
48:53mead hall
48:53turn to look at us.
48:54People immediately
48:55started whispering.
48:56Wait,
48:57is that the tear
48:58of Yigazic?
48:58Lord Varg forged
48:59that for his wife.
49:00Tonight is Lady Varg's
49:01first public appearance.
49:02Is this girl
49:03trying to mock
49:04the high yell's wife?
49:05She sneaked past
49:05the guards.
49:06Is she trying to
49:07humiliate us
49:08in front of Lord Varg?
49:09One of the elder warriors
49:10turned to Sauron.
49:11Commander?
49:12Is this young lady
49:13of your clan?
49:14Sauron saw that
49:15I wasn't even looking
49:15at him.
49:16He adjusted his
49:17expensive fur cloak
49:18and said coldly,
49:18No, I don't know her.
49:20Hearing that,
49:21Ingrid looked
49:21completely thrilled.
49:22She lifted her chin
49:23and sneered at me.
49:24Take that fake arm ring
49:25off and get out!
