Transcript
00:00The silver moon hung high over my mating knight. By Vaelric law, my alpha was supposed to come for me.
00:06Step through the gate of fangs. Carry me down from the tower. Claim me before the pack. But when the
00:11doors opened, it wasn't just him standing there. His little female bestie had come too. The sacred doors were pushed
00:17halfway open. Yet, chaotic laughter drifted in from outside.
00:21Why is everyone looking at me? The doors are already open. Go greet your future Luna. The crowd pushed Elyson,
00:27the alpha heir of the Vaelric pack, into the room. He walked straight toward me with the mating bouquet, skipping
00:33the vow we practiced over and over.
00:34Afina, stop stalling. Everyone is waiting. Let's head to the moon temple right now. Don't start this tonight. My boys
00:40are all here. Just help me get through this. We've been together for years, and we are mates fated by
00:45the moon goddess. The vow is just for show. But Varela just returned from another pack. She hasn't even eaten
00:50yet.
00:51Without waiting for my answer, he walked toward the door. Varelda hooked her arms around Elyson's neck, smiling. She wore
00:57a white, off-the-shoulder-long dress. Her bare skin gleamed under the moonlight. Today almost felt like their wedding.
01:04Ilyson, why did you come out? Won't your future Luna mind? She's not that petty. Why didn't you tell me
01:11you were coming back? I should have picked you up myself.
01:14My friends exchanged glances. When they saw how pale I was, the confetti they prepared ended up raining down. On
01:20the crowd cheering around Varelda, Varelda tilted her chin up.
01:23Your Luna doesn't want to leave with you. Aren't you going to do something? Go on, Ilyson. Your bride's upset.
01:29You should go make it up to her.
01:30Elyson frowned and sighed. Stop throwing a tantrum.
01:34Let's hurry to the Moon Temple. He held his hand out to me. That reminded me of the past. When
01:39I was young, I would hide in the closet.
01:41Elyson always found me. He would reach out, waiting for me to grab his hand.
01:46Once we mate, we'll have our own home. You'll never be scared again.
01:49The elders are still waiting at the Moon Temple. Varelda is frame. Besides, she just got back and doesn't know
01:54her way around. I'm taking her first.
01:57Elyson, this is our mating ceremony. I only get one.
02:01But we have a lifetime together, don't we? After this, I'll buy you something expensive, okay?
02:05This goes against tradition. You're supposed to carry Afina down and head to the Moon Temple together. If the ritual
02:12is incomplete...
02:13The Moon Goddess will bless us.
02:14He turned, ready to leave with Varelda.
02:17I lifted the hem of my gown and chased after him.
02:19Elyson, if you walk out that door right now, the mating is off.
02:23His steps faltered.
02:24If you don't mate with me, who else are you going to choose?
02:27We are fated by the Moon Goddess.
02:29Afina, stop throwing a tantrum over nothing.
02:31The elders are there. The whole pack is there. Delegates from other packs are there.
02:34Don't embarrass me in front of everyone.
02:36Besides, I spent over six months planning this ceremony for you.
02:39You haven't even seen it yet. I promise you'll love it.
02:41It's a massive surprise.
02:42Elyson, I'm starving.
02:44You really can't take care of yourself without me.
02:46He threw me a hasty wave.
02:48Turning his back on me, he opened the car door for Varelda.
02:51They drove off.
02:52How dare he treat you like this?
02:54When he begged you to mate him, he cried so hard he dropped the ring.
02:57And look at him now.
02:58What kind of spell did Varelda cat on him?
03:00Afina, don't be sad. It's your special day.
03:04If only my brother had shown up earlier.
03:06It's fine.
03:06I tilted my head up and swallowed back the tears.
03:09I stepped into another car.
03:11Kale, who grew up with Elyson, escorted us.
03:14He clearly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw us get into the car.
03:17Afina, don't overthink this.
03:19Varelda grew up with us.
03:20A friendship like that doesn't just disappear overnight.
03:23She really doesn't mean anything by it.
03:25Besides, we all know how much Elyson loves you.
03:27Every time he returns from Blackthorn, he brings you so many gifts.
03:31Varelda actually guided him in picking all of them out for you.
03:34Elyson was with Varelda back then?
03:36They just, just bumped into each other by chance.
03:39Oh, by chance every single time.
03:41No, it's not like that.
03:42Varelda was out there alone and we worried she'd be scared.
03:45We took turns visiting her.
03:47Elyson really didn't go look for her on purpose.
03:49Didn't you just say they bumped into each other by chance?
03:52Right then, Serena let out a gasp.
03:54She gestured for me to look at her phone screen.
03:57It was an Instagram live stream.
03:58Someone had started streaming early.
04:00The pack elder inside was reciting the vows.
04:03But I wasn't the Luna standing there.
04:05Varelda stood next to Elyson.
04:07Stop the car.
04:09All our attention was drawn to the screen.
04:12We're just practicing.
04:13Serena sneered and turned up the volume.
04:15Kale heard Varelda's laughter and the pack elder's speech coming from the phone.
04:19He instantly knew what was happening.
04:21His face drained of color.
04:23He turned around in panic.
04:24Afina, they're just messing around.
04:26It's just an illusion magic.
04:27I'll curse them out right now.
04:29Something inside me finally snapped.
04:31I lifted my gaze and let out a mocking smile.
04:33Since he wants to mate with her, I'll let him.
04:35Just pull over nearby.
04:37You don't need to drive inside.
04:38A sudden commotion came from ahead.
04:40A luxury car blocked the middle of the road.
04:43Sayalon stepped out of the vehicle ahead.
04:45I reached my hand out to him.
04:47Kale hadn't even processed what was happening.
04:49I had already pushed the car door open.
04:52Afina, what are you doing?
04:54Kale hurriedly got out too, trying to stop me.
04:57Sayalon pressed an elegant kiss to the back of my hand.
05:00I will take you away.
05:03How can you leave with him?
05:05Today is your mating ceremony with Yilison.
05:07That stuff earlier was just a joke.
05:09Don't take it seriously.
05:11Is mating with another woman also a joke?
05:14This, how could, no, it's not like that.
05:18Sayalon didn't spare him a glance.
05:20Without a word, he scooped me into his arms,
05:23sparing me the trouble of walking in my heels.
05:25Later, that image would haunt Eliezen.
05:27Eliezen kept checking his phone.
05:29He had ordered Kale to report Afina's status every half hour.
05:32However, the update was ten minutes late this time, with no news at all.
05:37They were still going through the rehearsal.
05:39The pack elder handed him the moonstone ring.
05:41Afina isn't actually mad, is she?
05:44It's just a rehearsal.
05:48Yilison, Afina knows.
05:50Knows what?
05:50Everything.
05:51She went to the Tide Temple across the street.
05:56He rushed to the doorway and grabbed a servant standing there.
06:00Answer me.
06:01Who is holding a mating ceremony across the street?
06:03It's Seelin of the Tideborn Pack.
06:07He knew this man.
06:09A familiar dread hit him hard.
06:11The servant noticed his terrible expression and quietly backed away a few steps.
06:14Afina asked me to pass on a message.
06:16She wishes you and Verelda a happy mating.
06:18Eliezen gripped his phone tightly.
06:20He forced a relaxed laugh.
06:22Impossible.
06:23How could Afina mate with anyone else?
06:26We are mates fated by the moon goddess.
06:28What would happen if another alpha stole you away?
06:31I would only ever be your Luna.
06:33A sudden wave of regret hit him.
06:35He gripped his own hair.
06:36No, no.
06:37My Afina can't become someone else's Luna.
06:39I have to go bring her back.
06:41I need to find her.
06:42Panic overtook his face.
06:44His beta crew also realized the problem and hurried outside with him.
06:48The guests already inside the hall looked at each other in sheer confusion.
06:51Weren't we told the Luna makes her grand entrance last?
06:53Why is there a female beta rehearsing the ceremony early?
06:56They even exchanged rings.
06:58Isn't this a betrayal to the Luna and a massive disrespect to the moon goddess?
07:01Who wears a mating ring twice?
07:03Verelda's face flushed bright red under the harsh whispers.
07:06She fled from the center of the room to a corner.
07:08Eliezen's parents looked grim.
07:10They complained in hushed voices.
07:11We used to think she'd be useful by Eliezen's side.
07:14How did she turn out like this?
07:15Verelda has completely crossed the line.
07:17Why did she come back today?
07:19Did Eliezen ask her to return?
07:22Please don't misunderstand.
07:24Verelda and our son grew up like siblings.
07:26She spent years away from the pack.
07:28She simply doesn't understand Valix's rules.
07:30The guests whispered among themselves.
07:32This is absolutely in outrageous.
07:35Eliezen didn't step up to explain himself.
07:37He was staring at a viral live stream on his phone.
07:40It was a real-time broadcast of Sailon and Afina's mating ceremony.
07:44Kale pointed at the man on the screen.
07:45He's the one who blocked our car on the road.
07:47He carried Eliezen into his vehicle himself.
07:49He also carried her all the way into the temple.
07:51Eliezen was completely speechless.
07:53At the time, he had actually thought Afina wouldn't get far in her high heels.
07:57Perhaps this was the exact difference between them.
08:00Another beta noticed Eliezen's dark expression and sharply elbowed Kale.
08:03Stop talking nonsense.
08:05Afina is probably just putting on an act out of spite.
08:08Eliezen fiercely regretted driving away without me.
08:10He frantically bombarded Serena's phone with texts.
08:13Afina, I was wrong.
08:15Just give me one chance to explain.
08:17I shouldn't have ignored your feelings.
08:18I've rearranged the ceremony.
08:20I'm just waiting for you to come see me.
08:22We are fated mates.
08:23Our scents match perfectly and we made a promise long ago.
08:26You can only be my Luna.
08:27Serena silently handed her phone to me, rolling her eyes.
08:31I glanced at the screen, unimpressed.
08:33I sent Eliezen the audio I had recorded in the car earlier.
08:37Then, I blocked him.
08:39Sayalon had stationed numerous bodyguards outside the temple.
08:42He made absolutely sure Eliezen couldn't crash the ceremony.
08:45He carefully arranged the train of my gown.
08:48Only then did he allow the photographer to take pictures.
08:51My Luna should appear in her most beautiful and perfect state.
08:54To him, it was as if no one else existed but me.
08:58Right before cutting our palms to exchange blood,
09:00I tugged on Selen's sleeve.
09:02Selen, I can't complete the bond with you.
09:04Not yet.
09:05Are you really sure about this?
09:07Sayalon froze for a second.
09:09His hand brushed against the back of my neck,
09:11gently stroking my skin.
09:13It's okay.
09:14I can wait.
09:15I'll wait until you completely let him go.
09:17I'll wait until the Moon Goddess is willing to bless us as a new pair.
09:20I looked deeply into his eyes.
09:22I bless you too as well.
09:23We swore our vows to the Moon Goddess.
09:26We willingly became each other's mates.
09:28We marked each other.
09:30I could almost see his inner wolf wagging its tail happily,
09:33looking like its deepest wish had just come true.
09:35Everyone offered their blessings, celebrating my new role as his Luna.
09:39Selen is a good kid.
09:40You should have chosen him from the start.
09:42By unspoken agreement, none of them brought up the incident with Elisen.
09:46They just warmly greeted the guests.
09:48Good thing she dodged a bullet.
09:50Serena quietly wiped away her tears as Selen,
09:52and I finally completed the ceremony.
09:54Elisen watched helplessly as the ceremony ended on the screen.
09:58How did Afina find out about all this?
10:00I'm sorry.
10:01I accidentally let it slip,
10:02but I wasn't the one behind that rehearsal stunt.
10:04Someone started a live stream.
10:06The girls saw it.
10:07It was just a coincidence.
10:08There would have been no coincidence if he had done nothing wrong.
10:11After the ceremony,
10:13Serena shot Sail on a pointed glare.
10:15I told him,
10:16if he hesitated,
10:17he'd lose you.
10:18But he refused to listen,
10:19saying you were too young.
10:21He was just terrified you'd reject him
10:23and never want to see him again.
10:24Otherwise,
10:24how could he let you suffer such humiliation today?
10:27Sail on didn't say a word.
10:28He just looked at me cautiously.
10:31Afina,
10:31I'm just so glad I could help you.
10:32Whether you're willing to form a mate bond with me or not,
10:35I will always stand behind you.
10:36I just wanted to fight for a chance.
10:38I couldn't bear watching you become someone else's Luna.
10:41From now on,
10:42can you try looking at me instead?
10:44His eyes brimmed with deep affection.
10:46He gently grabbed my hand.
10:47I swear to the moon goddess,
10:49I will do my absolute best,
10:51treating you as the most important person in my heart.
10:53I didn't pull my hand away.
10:55Okay.
10:56Selen's eyes lit up.
10:57He was just about to speak when a male voice cut in.
11:00I object!
11:02It was a leeson.
11:03He rushed in,
11:04gasping for air.
11:05None of that counts!
11:07He strode right up to Sail on
11:08and grabbed him by the collar.
11:10We are the fated mates.
11:11We made a promise long ago.
11:13She has always seen you as a brother.
11:15How can you be so shameless?
11:18He'd bared his teeth.
11:19His wolf fangs fully extended.
11:22Sail on remained completely unaffected.
11:24He just let out a soft chuckle
11:25and shook off a leeson's grip.
11:27A terrifying aura erupted from him,
11:29forcing a leeson to stumble back a few steps.
11:31Selen's inner wolf finally materialized.
11:34Shameless!
11:35Who exactly is being shameless here?
11:37It is shameless to abandon your Luna on your mating day.
11:40It is shameless to treat a female beta
11:42as your most important person.
11:44You don't deserve to be chosen by Afina.
11:47A leeson couldn't withstand Selen's power.
11:49He cast a pathetic, desperate look at me.
11:52Afina, you still love me, don't you?
11:54I know you're just acting out of spite right now.
11:56Let's go back, okay?
11:57I can throw you a brand new ceremony.
11:58This is all just a misunderstanding.
12:00I remained silent,
12:01just staring at him quietly.
12:03A leeson grew even more frantic at my silence.
12:06A misunderstanding?
12:07Was it a misunderstanding to leave the pack
12:09for Varela on every anniversary?
12:10Or to abandon me today?
12:11Or when you let her take my place in our ceremony?
12:14A leeson's face turned even paler.
12:16After all these years together,
12:18can't you give me one more chance?
12:20Didn't I already give you one?
12:21I told you,
12:22if you walked out that door,
12:23our mating was off.
12:24Did you think I was bluffing?
12:26A leeson was left speechless.
12:27He froze for a long time.
12:29He struggled to his feet,
12:31straightening his clothes.
12:32I spent half a year planning that ceremony.
12:34The least you could do is go take a look.
12:36We are mates chosen by the moon goddess.
12:38How can our bond break over something so small?
12:41Elise's beta crew finally rushed in.
12:44Athena,
12:44you can't let all of Yelison's hard work go to waste
12:46just because you're throwing a fit.
12:47His friends and relatives are all waiting for you.
12:49This isn't just personal anymore.
12:50This affects both packs.
12:52Our families have political ties.
12:54Walking out like this humiliates everyone.
12:55I frowned in annoyance.
12:57I felt the aura radiating from Ceylon
12:59grow even stronger.
13:00With a terrifying tone,
13:02Ceylon's massive white wolf fully emerged.
13:04It pinned the blabbering beta to the ground
13:06with a single swipe of its paw.
13:08Why didn't you think about the two packs
13:09when you treated Athena like that?
13:11Did you ever give Athena any respect?
13:14Did you ever treat her as your future Luna?
13:16Violent coughing echoed the moon.
13:19None of them could withstand Ceylon's power.
13:21The leeson choked,
13:22coughing up a mouthful of blood.
13:24He clutched his chest,
13:26keeping his gaze fixed on me.
13:27Athena,
13:28I didn't mean it like that.
13:28There is absolutely nothing between Verelda and me.
13:31She's just a friend.
13:32That's all.
13:32I kept it from you before
13:34because I didn't want you to be upset.
13:35I was afraid you'd misunderstand us.
13:37If you're upset about this,
13:38I'll banish her from the pack.
13:40I'll never contact her again, okay?
13:41So you knew it would make her upset?
13:43Then why did you still do those things?
13:46Our kind values loyalty above all.
13:48And you?
13:48You hurt her with your lies.
13:50Were you ever loyal to her?
13:52And your pathetic little followers,
13:54they helped you hide the truth from Athena,
13:56and now they have the nerve to guilt trip her?
13:59Who the hell do you think you are?
14:01Now, she has absolutely nothing to do with you.
14:04You're permanently out of the picture.
14:06Ceylon brushed my hair aside,
14:08wanting to crush a leeson's last bit of hope.
14:10He showed him the fresh mating mark on the back of my neck.
14:13Ceylon let out a soft scoff and called for his enforcers.
14:16Throw them all out.
14:18Do not let them disturb my Luna ever again.
14:20The leeson stayed awake the entire night.
14:22Ceylon and I had already marked each other,
14:24but they were only temporary scent marks.
14:26In the beginning, we even slept in separate rooms.
14:30My parents didn't object when they found out.
14:32They even encouraged us to date properly.
14:34Oh, just take this chance to get to know each other again.
14:37Mating first and falling in love later isn't a bad thing.
14:40Just go with it.
14:41We're just waiting for you two to give us an Alpha Grand Baby soon.
14:44Their eyes lit up with sure excitement as they spoke.
14:47They were already eagerly imagining their retired life babysitting for us.
14:51I helplessly pushed them out the door.
14:53Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
14:55I stared at the fresh flowers that Ceylon replaced every day.
14:59Then, I reached back to touch the nape of my neck.
15:02To keep up appearances, we marked each other regularly just to share our scents.
15:06But if there was no love, how could the marking go so smoothly?
15:10Ceylon walked in right then.
15:12He was holding yet another bouquet of vibrant flowers, still wet with morning dew.
15:16Darling, are they pretty?
15:17Do you like them?
15:18He leaned in close.
15:19Something warm and furry brushed against my calf again.
15:23Ceylon, your tail's out, again.
15:25I'm just too happy.
15:27Elisean didn't give up after Varelda left.
15:29He came looking for me several times.
15:31He had lost a lot of weight.
15:33Dark circles bruised the skin beneath his eyes, and his jaw was covered in thick stubble.
15:37I didn't even need a mate bond to sense his weakness.
15:40His energy was completely depleted.
15:43Afina, can't you just forgive me?
15:45I showed no reaction.
15:46I simply continued trimming the flower stems, refusing to look at him.
15:50I know I was wrong.
15:51I really do.
15:52I've sent Varelda away, and she will never come back.
15:55I heard you and Ceylon still haven't formed a true mate bond.
15:57Could you please give me one chance?
16:00Just forgive me this once.
16:01Please stop returning my gifts.
16:03I only want to show you how much I care.
16:05That made me pause.
16:06Gifts?
16:07I'd never seen a single one, which meant Ceylon had dealt with them before they ever reached
16:12me.
16:12So, I turned around.
16:15Yilson, we're over.
16:16Don't contact me again.
16:17My alpha gets jealous.
16:18You can always find a new Luna.
16:20All color drained from Elizin's face.
16:22He clenched his fists tightly inside his pockets.
16:25He could never hand over that custom moonstone ring he had remade for me.
16:29Darling!
16:29Ceylon's voice rang out as he returned.
16:32He walked over and took my hand.
16:34Tomorrow, I'm making the bond official.
16:36And this time, she gets the ceremony she deserves.
16:39Mr. Yilson, you are more than welcome to attend.
16:41Elizin shot me a look of pure heartbreak.
16:43He fled the scene in utter defeat.
16:46Ceylon looked a bit anxious once the man was gone.
16:49Baby, about the gifts, you don't blame me, do you?
16:51I just didn't want him appearing in your world anymore.
16:53I really didn't mean anything else by it.
16:56I don't blame you.
16:57He visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
16:59Who said I agreed to form a mate bond with you?
17:02Ceylon lowered his head.

17:12I saw his wolf, and he saw mine.
17:14He released his massive white wolf.
17:16It stood proud and tall, wagging its tail eagerly.
17:20Afina, do you mean, oh no!
17:22I rested my forehead against his.

17:26We were always meant to be mates.
17:28We could hear each other's frantic heartbeats.
