Short filmTranscript
00:00Spread your legs wider! The guests are waiting! Isabella, wake up!
00:06You're not that blessed holy mistress anymore. Now you're nothing but a slutty dog.
00:11Keep practicing, or I'll strip you naked and throw you out.
00:15I was pinned to the floor, forced to open my legs. I screamed and fought all I could, but it
00:20was useless.
00:22My second day in this lowly brothel. All because my ex-husband Edmund Temple sold me out.
00:29I was the older daughter of Earl Ashwood, blessed by God to bring good luck to my partner.
00:33By the Pope's order, the day my adopted sister Imogen and I turned 18, we had to draw straws to
00:39let God choose our husbands.
00:41I was chosen to marry Edmund, a young rookie knight. Imogen was going to marry Sebastian Black, the cursed, brutal
00:47black duke.
00:48Imogen begged me to swap with her, but I refused to disobey God's will.
00:54Then, she jumped into a lake and ended her own life. Edmund never said anything about it.
00:59He was incredibly gentle with me, brushing my hair every single day and taking me on walks.
01:04But the very day he became the knight commander, he turned into a monster.
01:08He framed my family as heretics.
01:1027 lives, all being burned to ashes, leaving me in total despair.
01:14A sharp pain snapped me back to reality.
01:16The whip tore right through the skin on my shoulder.
01:20I made up my mind, snatched the dagger from the guard's waist and plunged it straight into my own heart.
01:26I died filled with pure hatred and regret.
01:31When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back three days before the wedding, the exact day we were
01:38going to draw straws to decide our fates.
01:40The meeting hall was packed.
01:43My father sat in his velvet chair, with a wooden box holding two copper coins right in front of him.
01:51Edmund stood to the side, staring at me, looking nervous.
01:55The life-changing moment was the same in my past life.
02:00Sebastian Black, the Black Duke, was cursed and totally brutal.
02:05Everyone said he wouldn't even survive this winter, and whoever married him would only suffer.
02:10I looked past those two coins of fate and looked at Edmund.
02:13He seemed to be mouthing the words to me.
02:15Imogen is too lonely by herself.
02:17You all owe her, and you should all go keep her company.
02:20Isabella! Isabella!
02:23My father's voice suddenly snapped me out of my thoughts.
02:26I looked up fast, took a step forward, and said in a firm, steady voice,
02:30No need to draw. I will be the Black Duke's bride.
02:34The second I finished talking, Edmund snapped his head up, his amber eyes suddenly lighting up with joy.
02:41He almost threw himself in front of my father.
02:43In that case, Count Ashwood, I am more than willing to marry Lady Imogen.
02:49His voice was full of desperation and rush, making the shunnel-croused shock.
02:53But in my past life, Edmund did not act like this at all.
02:56Back then, before the results were even out, he thought I was chosen for the Duke.
03:00He dropped to his knees, begging me not to leave him.
03:02He swore to protect me with his life.
03:05My father was moved by him, and he used our family's reputation to help Edmund become the Knight Commander.
03:11I narrowed my eyes, looking at Edmund, who was so desperate to marry Imogen now.
03:16His reaction was totally off.
03:18Unless...
03:19He remembers the past life, too!
03:21My father slammed his hand on the table, knocking out his silver wine cup.
03:25When you begged me to adopt you, you promised to marry Isabella!
03:29The Pope needed a girl from the Ashwood family to calm down the cursed wrath of Duke Black.
03:33To save me from going, my father adopted Edmund, an orphan back then,
03:37training him to be a gentleman and helping him join the Knights.
03:41But in the past life, Edmund threw my father into a dungeon,
03:45nailed his ten fingers to the wall with iron, and burned him to death.
03:48He used that brutal cruelty to get revenge because my father stopped him from being with Imogen.
03:54Thing about my father's horrific end in the past life,
03:56I walked up, held his chain down, and gently shook my head.
04:00Edmund was Aldi a member of the Knights, given a holy sword by the Pope himself.
04:04We couldn't cross him just yet.
04:09Count Ashwood, I'm not that pathetic little loser anymore.
04:12Some promises shouldn't be taken seriously.
04:15I looked at him, trying my best to stay calm.
04:18Edmund, don't worry. I will marry the Black Duke.
04:21Edmund froze for a second, but his eyes quickly turned and scary.
04:24Isabella, you better really mean that.
04:26He walked right up to me and whispered.
04:30Otherwise, I'll show you that the fire from our past life can easily burn again.
04:35I just nodded.
04:37Edmund frowned, surprised that I didn't react.
04:40He nut, grabbed Imogen's hand, and stormed out of the hall.
04:44I took a deep breath and forced my anger down.
04:46I am the blessed holy Maddiston.
04:49I can bring good luck to my partner and even break the curse.
04:52This is exactly why I dare to marry Duke Black,
04:55and Edmund was stupid enough to think I'm the same naive girl who loved him in the past life.
05:01Just three days later, I will be the Duchess,
05:04and I will make him pay back every single bit of pain I suffered in my past life!
05:08Two days before the wedding, Duke Black sent someone to bring me a diamond ring.
05:13Lady Isabella, the Duke is deeply grateful that you are willing to be his bride.
05:18He promised he would give you a perfect wedding.
05:20After saying thank you, I carefully tucked the ring away and walked alone to St. Mary's convent.
05:28The old nun handed me a sapphire necklace and drew a cross on my forehead.
05:32God bless you, my poor Isabella.
05:36Your mother held this necklace and knelt before the Holy Mother,
05:40praying for three days, just for you to have a happy marriage.
05:45I gripped the necklace tight, my eyes burning with tears.
05:48After saying goodbye to the nun, I walked out of the convent,
05:52only to run straight into Imogen and Edmund.
05:55Sister, your necklace is so pretty!
05:58Anyway, you won't live long after marrying the Black Duke.
06:00Why don't you just give me the necklace?
06:04Absolutely no.
06:06I promised Mother to wear it at my wedding.
06:09Edmund stared at the necklace in my hands.
06:11He knew exactly how much it meant to me.
06:13But Imogen wouldn't stop whining.
06:16Edmund, I want it!
06:22Isabella, hand it over.
06:24Edmund, this is the wedding blessing my mother prayed for me!
06:27How dare you!
06:28Lady Isabella, you are so obsessed with wedding vows.
06:31Are you still dreaming about marrying me?
06:33The moment he finished talking, Imogen lunged forward to grab it.
06:37She pulled it with a hard yank, and the necklace broke.
06:40The blue saffrons were scattered all over the ground.
06:43I knelt on the floor, trembling as I picked up the scattered gems.
06:46Edmund tossed a silver coin right at my feet, looking down at me.
06:50Here, take it.
06:51This should pay for your stupid necklace.
06:54I'm telling you, stop daydreaming.
06:55Imogen is the only one I'm marrying.
06:58You'd better give up on these crazy ideas, unless you want everything from our past life to happen all over
07:03again.
07:03I ignored him completely, just picking up the gems one by one.
07:07After gathering them all, I carefully wrapped them in a cotton cloth, stood up, and looked him straight in the
07:11eye.
07:13Sir, don't flatter yourself.
07:15The only person I ever wanted to marry is Duke Black.
07:18Seeing the pure disgust in my eyes, arrogant smurr meant's mange would I frozen indistinctly.
07:23He turned round, told Edmund to go pick out some jewelry, then turned right back to me.
07:27Isabella, I know you still love me deep down.
07:30We grew up together, so I won't be completely heartless to you.
07:33As long as you promise not mess with Imogen, I can let you be my secret lover.
07:37I'm already being generous here.
07:39The Ashwood family is going downhill anyway, so this is a great deal for you.
07:42His shameless words shocked me so much that I actually laughed out loud.
07:46No thanks, Sir Temple.
07:48In two days, I will be the Duchess.
07:51Show some respect.
07:52Without waiting to see the mess of emotions on his face, I spun around and walked away.
07:57Edmund, you're going to pay it all back sooner or later.
08:01Just two days more, and everything will be set in stone.
08:04In this life, I will make sure you regret it.
08:08The day before the wedding, my father looked worried.
08:11Duke Black is cursed and totally brutal.
08:15Are you sure you want to marry him?
08:19I had no other choice, so he looked issued.
08:23Father, the Ashwood family needs to bring back our honour, and we cannot disobey the Pope.
08:32My father didn't say a word.
08:35He just let out a deep sigh.
08:38Right after leaving my father's study, Imogen blocked my way, grabbing my hand with a nasty smirk on her face.
08:44Sister, stop dreaming about Edmund, and just go be your obedient little duchess.
08:52Looking at how paranoid she was acting, I just found it hilarious.
08:58Let go.
09:01I coldly shook her off, barely using any strength.
09:08But she gave me a wicked smile, turned around, and screamed as she threw herself into the pond behind her.
09:17Imogen!
09:22Edmund pulled her up immediately.
09:25Imogen curled up in his arms, trembling.
09:29I only wanted to pray for God's wedding blessing for Isabella, but she...
09:37Isabella!
09:39How can you be so evil?
09:46Before I could even speak, he shoved me straight into the lake.
09:53I struggled with my life, but he just carried Imogen and walked away without looking back.
09:59By the time I crawled out shivering and soaking wet...
10:07You already owe her a life, but...
10:12For the sake of our past, I can save you.
10:17He tossed the Vash right at me and said,
10:19Drink this potion tomorrow night, and you will be fake dead.
10:22I'll have someone sneak you out.
10:25All you have to do is agree to be my secret lover.
10:30I raised my hand and threw the vial straight into the deep water.
10:36You don't deserve it.
10:39Once tomorrow comes, I will have absolutely nothing to do with this traitor ever again.
10:43The day finally arrived.
10:48Imogen and I were getting married at the same time.
10:51And the church bells of the Ashwood Territory were ringing wild.
10:57I turned over and mounted a snow-white steed, drawing gasps from the onlookers.
11:02Unlike the tragic end of my past life, my path was now covered in lavender and wheat,
11:08symbols of purity and good fortune.
11:11Even though Duke Black didn't show up in person, he sent his most elite flak-armoured knights.
11:17They marched proudly, holding up the Duke's flags with the black dragon crest.
11:29Meanwhile, at the other end of the street, Edmund was leading his sad, cheap-looking wedding group to pick up
11:38his Imogen.
11:38Seeing how fancy my parade was, he panicked instantly.
11:43He grabbed a servant near him.
11:45Who else is getting married today?
11:47Whose bride is that?
11:49The servant shook with fear.
11:51Sir Temple, besides you, it's Lady Isabella and the Black Duke's wedding today.
12:03He froze the moment he caught sight of my figure in the distance.
12:07Suddenly, he ditched his own wedding crew and ran straight towards me.
12:13This is impossible!
12:15Isabella, have you lost your mind?
12:17Edmund screamed like a lunatic,
12:19but his voice was totally drowned out by the loud horns and cheering crowds.
12:25He finally realized that the girl who used to do everything for him didn't love him anymore.
12:35Isabella, this can't be real! You belong to me!
12:39He roared like crazy, but nobody gave a damn about him.
12:43Only the gold thread on my holy dress flashed in the sun, blinding his eyes.
12:48The next day, as soon as I stepped out of my bedroom, Edmund barged right in.
12:55The moment he got a clear look at me, his face darkened instantly.
13:03Isabella!
13:05Edmund gripped his sword handle tight, his voice shaking with buried rage.
13:09How dare you!
13:12How could you do something so shameless with that man!
13:15Edmund, Duke Sebastian Black, is my husband.
13:24He froze for a second, then snotted coldly and unrolled the parchment paper in his hand.
13:29By the Pope's order, Duke Black should be dead by today.
13:32As the holy sister who suppresses the curse,
13:34Lady Isabella Ashwood must be buried alive with him to accompany the Duke to heaven.
13:39Buried alive with him?
13:42Edmund, are you really that desperate to see me dead?
13:45Edmund's face twisted.
13:47He took a few steps closer.
13:49Isabella, stop acting.
13:51I know you're only mad at me because of what happened in our past life.
13:55But this is no time to play hero.
13:57Nobody can disobey the Pope's order.
14:03The burial is just a show for the public.
14:06I'll make sure you fake your death in the catacombs.
14:10Once it dies down, I'll get you a fake commoner identity so we can start over.
14:17I'll spoil you crazy, just like I used to.
14:20I shoved him away hard, cutting off his pathetic delusion.
14:25Edmund, you seriously think too highly of yourself.
14:29Do you really think I'm still that clueless fool from the past life?
14:34And let you control everything?
14:37Isabella, you made me do this!
14:39Completely ripping off his gentleman mask, he barked at the knights behind him.
14:45Put Lady Isabella in the coffin, and take her to the catacombs!
14:51A heavy coffin carved with a cross slammed down right in front of me.
14:55I watched the approaching knights with cold eyes, not even blinking.
15:00Just as their filthy hands were about to touch my holy sleeves,
15:04an arrow bearing the black dragon priest sliced through the air,
15:08piercing straight through the lead guard's palm.
15:11Then, it slammed hard into Edmund's shoulder,
15:14the powerful force knocking him straight to the ground.
15:17Edmund screamed, clutching his shoulder as he rolled around in the dirt.
15:22I slowly turned around and saw...
15:27Duke Black, standing in the shadows of the porch, holding a bow in his hand.
15:32His collar was slightly open, showing off the scratch marks I left behind from last night.
15:37He glared at Edmund, his eyes filled with pure killer instinct.
15:42Bringing a coffin into my manor, Edmund.
15:44Are you trying to leave your lives here?
15:47Naturally wrapping his arm around my shoulder.
15:50How dare you?
15:53Trying to bury my duchess alive?
15:57As he slowly walked down the steps,
16:00the once arrogant Edmund was already on his knees,
16:03bowing his head in fear.
16:05Night Temple, the church's newly promoted elite.
16:08Night Temple, the church's newly opened.
16:12Is that right?
16:13He stood firmly by my side.
16:17To Duke Black.
16:19Sir, I am only following the Pope's order.
16:23The Pope's order?
16:27Duke Black let out a soft chuckle,
16:30turning around to press a gentle kiss on my oarhead.
16:34Darling,
16:35Do I look like a dead man to you?
16:37Not at all.
16:40He pulled me into his arms,
16:42letting out a low, satisfied laugh.
16:46But the moment he turned back to Edmund,
16:48his eyes went cold.
16:51Didn't you hear, my duchess?
16:53I am alive,
16:54so there's no need for a burial.
16:58Now get lost.
17:01Edmund's face turned the color of dirt.
17:05Helped up by his knights,
17:06he scrambled away in panic,
17:08even tripping over himself from running too fast.
17:11I was just about to breathe a south of relief,
17:14then Duke Black's warm breath rushed against my ear.
17:17Sir and the curse is broken, my duchess.
17:21Shouldn't we finish what we started last night?
17:24I called out to him softly.
17:26Duke,
17:28since I saved your life once,
17:30how about you do me a favor too?
17:32A hint of a smile flashed in Duke Black's eyes,
17:34his hand rubbing my waist slowly.
17:36What kind of reward does my duchess want?
17:38I want to deal with you.
17:40I looked straight into those deep eyes,
17:42not scared at all.
17:43Fine.
17:44Anything you want,
17:45I will give it to you.
17:46He agreed surprisingly fast.
17:48But from now on?
17:49But his voice instantly dropped low again.
17:50I need my duchess to call me by name,
17:54Sebastian.
17:55Just like he promised,
17:56he became the backbone for my revenge.
17:58Honestly,
17:58he didn't even need to lift a finger.
18:00As long as his title as the Black Duke was around,
18:02Edmund would be miserable every single day.
18:04I leaned back lazily on the velvet couch,
18:06staring at the secret letter stamped with red wax.
18:09For the past two weeks,
18:10I have tracked every single move of Edmund.
18:12Just as I thought.
18:13I giggled and tossed the secret letter into the fireplace,
18:15watching the flames swallow it whole in a second.
18:18In my past life,
18:19even though Edmund didn't believe in my power,
18:20he was protected by my good luck.
18:22With the Ashwood family backing him up,
18:23he got a solid spot in the Pope's night
18:25and became the highly honored night commander.
18:26But in this life,
18:27without me around,
18:28Imogen can't help him at all.
18:29What would this greedy knight do now?
18:31Placed a warm cup of black tea in front of me and whispered,
18:33Duchess,
18:34Lady Imogen threw another huge tantrum this morning.
18:37Word is,
18:38she completely smashed Sir Temple's favorite ceremonial sword.
18:42I calmly sipped my black tea,
18:43listening sing to my maid talk about what happened.
18:46In my past life,
18:47I was so weak that I just took Edmund's cheating and betrayal.
18:50For his so-called bright future,
18:52I let him bring home one noble mistress after another.
18:55But Imogen is different.
18:56She is way too greedy and ambitious
18:59to ever let anyone touch what belongs to her.
19:02So,
19:02I had someone whisper a little rumor in her ear,
19:04one that would totally crush her dreams.
19:06The bishop's sister is writing love letters to Edmund.
19:09Do you really think he won't kick you out to make room for her?
19:11Just three days later,
19:12my secret guards brought back some amusing news.
19:15Edmund and Imogen had the biggest,
19:16nastiest fight.
19:18Edmund,
19:18what the hell did you swear in front of the priest?
19:22Imogen screamed like crazy,
19:24slamming his ceremonial sword,
19:25the very symbol of his knightly honor,
19:28hard against the stone floor.
19:29The blade shattered into pieces instantly.
19:32Shut up!
19:33This is all for my future!
19:35Edmund's voice sounded totally exhausted and annoyed.
19:40Just be good and go to the convent,
19:42and our marriage shall be dissolved.
19:44I promise you.
19:45Once I become the Night Knight Commander,
19:47I will bring you back.
19:50You want me to go to a convent?
19:54Do you think I'm as stupid as Isabella?
19:57That holy maiden who let you control her
19:59and happily sacrificed herself for your reputation?
20:03Imogen,
20:03what the hell are you talking about?
20:05Once I get a solid spot in the Knights,
20:07I will bring you back.
20:09I promise.
20:10Bring me back?
20:11As what?
20:12An exiled ex-wife with no reputation?
20:15Edmund,
20:16you want to dump me in some convent tower like trash
20:18just to make way for new power?
20:19Edmund turned his face away,
20:21avoiding Imogen's question.
20:23I don't care who you're bringing home.
20:26I will kill her!
20:27Edmund couldn't take it anymore
20:28and completely exploded on the spot.
20:31Enough, Imogen!
20:32You damn well know how important my position in the Knights is.
20:35Only the Bishop can help me now.
20:37A knight like me,
20:38born an orphan,
20:39can have everything stripped away
20:40by those blue-blooded nobles at any second!
20:42Imogen,
20:43if I didn't love you,
20:44why the hell would I cover up
20:45all your dirty little secrets?
20:46I even covered up the fact
20:47that you pushed Count Ashfield
20:48down the stairs back then
20:49just to take the entire family fortune-
20:51Edmund,
20:51drop the act.
20:52You didn't hide the truth for me.
20:53You did it to save your own noble name,
20:55the name you only got
20:56by sucking the Ashwood family dry.
20:57Edmund,
20:58you're no hero.
20:58You're just a pathetic loser
20:59who stole someone else's honor,
21:01completely eaten alive
21:02by your own insecurity.
21:04Imogen Ashfield.
21:06What the hell did you just say?
21:08Isn't it true,
21:09Knight Edmund Temple?
21:11Back when you were adopted,
21:12you lived every single day
21:13walking on eggshells around Isabella.
21:15Your pathetic insecurity
21:17made you totally hate
21:18her holy,
21:19high-and-mighty attitude,
21:20didn't it?
21:20You let me poison the Count
21:21because you just wanted to see her
21:22dragged into the duct!
21:24You wanted that proud,
21:25holy lady to become
21:26your little mistress,
21:28didn't you?
21:29But what a shame, Edmund.
21:30She would rather throw herself
21:32to that cursed black duke
21:33than give you a single glance.
21:35You are so damn pathetic!
21:38Edmund,
21:38who always faked being a gentleman,
21:40had his face
21:40totally twisted with rage.
21:42Enough!
21:43Tomorrow,
21:44you're packing your belongings
21:45and going to St. Mary's Convent.
21:47Don't you dare come back
21:48until you learn to shut your mouth!
21:49He threw her off.
21:50Imogen collapsed on the floor,
21:52holding her face,
21:53looking completely out of her mind.
21:55Meanwhile,
21:55out on the balcony of Black Manor,
21:57I was taking a glass of red wine
21:58from Sebastian.
22:00His deep voice
22:01brushed right against my ear.
22:02Darling,
22:03you are truly the smartest girl
22:05I have ever met.
22:07I stared at the sharp roof
22:08of the convent in the distance.
22:10Just then,
22:10a shadow knight walked in
22:12and dropped to his knees
22:13before Sebastian.
22:14Duke,
22:15the bishop's sister has arrived.
22:17Edmund is getting ready
22:17to announce his new engagement.
22:19Half a month later,
22:20with the support of the Holy Church,
22:21Edmund held a secret engagement ceremony
22:23with the bishop's sister.
22:24But I knew Iman.
22:25She is a venomous snake.
22:26She will never just sit back
22:27and watch her power
22:28slip into someone else's hands.
22:29Sure enough,
22:30on the very eve of the wedding celebration,
22:32news came from the convent.
22:33Iman had poisoned herself.
22:34That night,
22:35Edmund didn't even bring his holy sword
22:36and rode his horse like crazy
22:37through the night's St. Mary's convent.
22:39When he kicked open
22:39that heavy wooden door,
22:40Imogen was slouched on the floor.
22:42The white bandage around her wrist
22:43was soaked in blood,
22:44and she looked so fragile,
22:46like a feigning rose petal
22:47that could wither at any second.
22:49Imogen.
22:49Edmund's voice shook like crazy.
22:51At that moment,
22:52he turned right back
22:53into that knight
22:54who worshipped Imogen.
22:57What are you doing here?
22:58Go spend time
22:59with your precious bishop, sister.
23:00Edmund collapsed
23:01onto the freezing stone floor,
23:03crying like a child.
23:04I was wrong,
23:05Imogen,
23:06my darling.
23:06I shouldn't have left you
23:07all alone here to suffer.
23:09The two of them
23:09held each other
23:10and cried before the statue
23:11of the Holy Mother,
23:12rewriting the same
23:13deeply in love scene
23:14they had played in our party.
23:15Three days later,
23:16Imogen came back home
23:17with a grand honor,
23:18but Sophia,
23:19the new bride,
23:20was not someone
23:20to cross easily.
23:21That very night,
23:22she smirked and cut
23:23Imogen's favorite velvet dress
23:24into shreds.
23:25But before I could even
23:26make any move,
23:27a secret letter
23:28had already been dropped
23:28right onto Sophia's vanity table.
23:30For the past two weeks,
23:32Edmund's life had been a mess.
23:34Sophia finally got the weapon
23:35she wanted right before the wedding.
23:37That secret letter
23:38detailed the truth
23:39about who saved Edmund last night.
23:41The person who risked her life
23:42to drag Edmund
23:43out of the freezing river
23:45wasn't Imogen.
23:47It was me.
23:48That night,
23:49Edmund's manner
23:50was brightly lit up.
23:52Sophia sat there gracefully
23:53with all the evidence
23:54laid out right on the table.
23:55The maid's confession letter,
23:56the herbal recipe
23:57from back then,
23:58and even a silk scar.
24:03Edmund,
24:04do you know who saved
24:04your life from that
24:05ice river sacrifice
24:06back then?
24:10Bring Imogen in here now!
24:18It was you!
24:20You stole Isabella's credit
24:22and lied to me
24:23for ten years!
24:27So what if I did,
24:29Edmund?
24:31I took the credit,
24:32cut her ratchin,
24:33but aren't you the one
24:34who destroyed Isabella?
24:37Do you really not know
24:38who saved you?
24:39You were just too cowardly
24:41to admit it!
24:42If you did,
24:43how could you torture her
24:45without feeling guilty?
24:47How could you keep
24:48playing your holy knight act?
24:50Shut the hell up!
24:55Edmund,
24:55I guess you finally
24:56see her true colors now?
24:58This precious little girl
24:59you worshipped
25:00is nothing but
25:01a dirty fraud.
25:03It's all because of you,
25:05you petty wretch!
25:06Go to hell!
25:13You maniac!
25:16Sylvia!
25:20Doctor!
25:22Doctor!
25:22Save my wife!
25:24Help her!
25:25Doctor!
25:26Doctor!
25:27Meanwhile,
25:28Imogen watched him run off.
25:30She slumped onto the floor,
25:31staring at her own bloody hands
25:33and started laughing
25:34like a demon.
25:35She knew that committing murder
25:36on the Pope's land
25:37meant both she and Edmund
25:38were completely finished.
25:39Sophia couldn't survive after all.
25:42The bishop's sister died
25:43on the very eve of the wedding.
25:45Three days later,
25:46the funeral bells rang out.
25:47The furious bishop
25:48broke down in tears
25:50before the Pope,
25:51accusing Edmund of the crime.
25:52And Edmund's betrayal,
25:54how he tried to force me
25:55into being his secret lover,
25:57was also exposed to everyone.
25:59Oh!
26:01The bitter north wind
26:03swept across the land.
26:05Biting cold
26:06surrounded him
26:07all day long.
26:08He spent his whole life
26:10sucking up to noble ladies,
26:12desperate to be a real royal.
26:14But in the end,
26:15that's exactly what destroyed him.
26:18My Duchess,
26:20do you like
26:21how this revenge story
26:22is playing out?
26:27This is only the beginning.
26:30Imogen was also banished
26:32for murdering a noble,
26:34and word was
26:34they were being exiled
26:35at the same time.
26:36Before they left,
26:38I went out of my way
26:39to give them
26:40a proper goodbye.
26:41The once elegant Imogen
26:42was now wearing
26:43heavy iron chains,
26:45dragging her feet along.
26:47And Edmund's face
26:48looked like dirt.
26:49He didn't look like
26:51a proud knight at all anymore.
26:54Isabella!
26:57You set all of this up,
26:59didn't you?
27:00Sir Temple,
27:02if you weren't so greedy
27:03for power,
27:04and so heartless,
27:06how could you ever
27:06end up like this?
27:17I've already given
27:18the orders.
27:19The guards escorting you
27:20out of the city
27:21are going to take
27:21very good care of you.
27:23The second I finished speaking,
27:24he lunged at me,
27:25but the iron chains
27:27yanked him right down,
27:28slamming him into the mud.
27:29At the same time,
27:31the guard's whip
27:31cracked hard against his back,
27:33exactly like the whip
27:34that tore through my skin
27:36in my past life.
27:36Edmund screamed with rage
27:38but was helpless,
27:39dragged away like a dead dog.
27:41I knew his living nightmare
27:43had only just begun.
27:44I watched them disappear
27:45into the sunset,
27:46the memory of that
27:47past-life fire
27:48flashing back into my mind.
27:50Back then,
27:51I was stomped
27:52under Edmund's foot,
27:53watching my entire family
27:55burn to ashes.
27:56Duchess,
27:57it's getting cold.
28:02Back at Black Manor,
28:04secret reports
28:05kept coming in.
28:06July 3rd,
28:07Imogen fought Edmund
28:08in a beggar camp
28:09over a piece of black bread.
28:11They tore at each other
28:12in public
28:13and half of Edmund's
28:14left ear was bitten off.
28:16July 7th,
28:17while crossing a river,
28:19Imogen shoved Edmund
28:20into the rushing water.
28:21He was saved,
28:22but his right leg bone
28:23was smashed to pieces,
28:25leaving him crippled for life.
28:26I took a sip of my tea.
28:28The high and mighty
28:29knight commander
28:30from my past life
28:31had actually turned
28:32into such a pathetic loser now.
28:34July 15th,
28:36the two spent the night
28:37in a cave.
28:40Imogen completely lost her mind.
28:42She used a sharp stone
28:43to slash Edmund's face
28:45over and over.
28:46Isabella is back!
28:48I closed my eyes.
28:50They owe the Ashwood family
28:5127 innocent lives.
28:53This is still nowhere near enough.
28:58Duchess,
28:59are you finally feeling
29:01a bit better now?
29:02Sebastian,
29:03my revenge is complete.
29:05Should our partnership
29:06end now too?
29:08I can leave for the convent
29:10and wait to inherit my title.
29:16I won't get in the way
29:17of you marrying
29:17someone you actually love.
29:22Ends now?
29:23Someone I actually love?
29:27You are the Duchess
29:28I stole back
29:29from God's hands.
29:31Don't even dream
29:32of leaving me
29:32in this lifetime.
29:35He wrapped his arms
29:37around me tightly,
29:38resting his chin
29:39in my hair.
29:40That was when
29:41I finally realized
29:41that the Pope's order
29:42for the Ashwood girls
29:43to draw straws
29:44was actually
29:45his plan all along.
29:47No wonder,
29:48with the Ashwood family
29:49going downhill,
29:50how could we ever
29:51catch the Pope's attention?
29:53Long ago,
29:54during that
29:55Ice River sacrifice,
29:57I already met you.
30:02I remembered it all.
30:04Back then,
30:05I risked everything
30:06to save Edmund,
30:07but I passed out
30:08because I ran out
30:09of strength.
30:09Right before I lost
30:10consciousness,
30:11the last thing I felt
30:12was someone saving me,
30:14carefully wrapping me up
30:15in a heavy black cloak.
30:17So,
30:18back then,
30:19you saved me?
30:20He gently brushed
30:21his fingers against
30:22my cheek without
30:23saying a word,
30:24but I already knew
30:25the answer.
