03:25don't you know
03:25are you
03:26Mrs. Hastings, we meet again.
03:28Who the hell are you guys?
03:29Watch your mouth talking to our boss?
03:30Ever heard of the Hong Gang?
03:32I'm just a regular businessman now.
03:34You're Damon?
03:35That's right.
03:36I'm here to tell you.
03:38I want your daughter.
03:39What does that mean?
03:41It means I'm going to marry her, father-in-law.
03:43I am not your father-in-law.
03:46How did their family get mixed up with a werewolf?
03:48That werewolf doesn't look like a good guy.
03:51Go away!
03:53You must be joking!
03:54My daughter will never marry a werewolf!
03:57I'm not joking.
03:59I'm marrying her no matter what.
04:01In your dreams!
04:03Is she going to invite me in for a chat?
04:07Father-in-law.
04:10Come in.
04:18I'm a cop!
04:19I will never marry my daughter off to a gangster!
04:23A cop?
04:25Then you should be even more eager to marry her to me.
04:32Look at this place.
04:33It's a dump.
04:34How much do you make a month as a cop?
04:35Can you even give her a decent life?
04:38But don't worry.
04:39Marry her to me, and I'll make your whole family rich overnight.
04:45Over my dead body!
04:47Marriage is not a game.
04:49You don't even know my daughter.
04:50Besides, you're different species.
04:52How can you even think about this?
04:54Mother-in-law, if I want to, everyone in Hansham is transparent to me.
04:58And there's no bad blood between werewolves and vampires anymore.
05:02Then you should know my family has been cops for three generations!
05:07My son died taking down a werewolf gang!
05:11How dare you make such an outrageous demand!
05:14You got it wrong.
05:16This isn't a demand.
05:18It's a notice.
05:20I'll come pick you up in a few days.
05:24Get ready.
05:27I'm already engaged.
05:32Oh yeah?
05:33That'll be cancelled soon.
05:37Serena!
05:38Caleb!
05:44This is your fiancé?
05:46Who the hell are you?
05:48As of today, you are single.
05:51That's what happened.
05:53I had no idea he was Damon.
05:58You two need to get married as soon as possible.
06:01I agree.
06:03Will that work?
06:05It's Damon we're talking about.
06:06So what?
06:07I don't believe he'd dare kidnap someone right under a cop's nose.
06:14Don't worry, Serena.
06:15I'll protect you.
06:28You look even more charming when you're working.
06:39What the hell do you want?
06:41I already know you very well.
06:43And I think it's time my fiancé got to know me too.
06:47Three years ago, you were at war with the Tiger Gang.
06:50My brother.
06:52Andrew died on the spot.
06:54And my dad got shot in the leg.
06:56If you really knew me,
06:59how dare you even stand here.
07:03Andrew's death was an accident.
07:07Since I took over the family, we haven't done anything illegal.
07:10You think that will change the past?
07:12Mrs. Hastings, the largest real estate, telecom, and oil companies in this city are all mine.
07:20Do you know how many people count on me?
07:23Do you think that makes you a philanthropist?
07:29Mr. Vitarelli!
07:30Thank you so much for your generous donation to our medical fund.
07:35You are such a philanthropist.
07:37This was all Mrs. Hastings' idea.
07:41She's deeply passionate about health care.
07:44You should give her a raise.
07:45Sure!
07:46A five-fold raise!
07:51Sir, may I borrow Mrs. Hastings for half a day?
07:54No problem at all.
07:57I'm busy.
08:02Serena, you're free to go.
08:06Sir!
08:07You'll be getting a new hospital ring.
08:09Oh, thank you so much!
08:17Put me down!
08:18Put me down!
08:19Put me down!
08:20Put me down!
08:22Hope to see you again!
08:24Put me down right now!
08:27Put me down!
08:31What the hell are you doing?
08:33You're insane!
08:40Don't test my patience.
08:42You're insane!
08:43Shh!
08:48I have a gift for you.
09:08Do you like it?
09:12You're invading my privacy!
09:15You're invading my privacy!
09:22You're insane!
09:22Everything about you is mine.
09:27And everything I have is yours.
09:30See that?
09:32All those buildings belong to me.
09:34If you ask,
09:36I'll give them all to you.
09:40But if you try to run
09:42I swear
09:43I'll scour the city to find you
09:56You think you can buy everything
09:58Including love
10:01As long as I'm rich enough
10:02Mr. Vitarelli, you are rich
10:06But I pity you
10:07Because in love, you're actually quite poor
10:10Do you know what you're saying?
10:13I'm aware
10:14You repulsed me
10:21Speak
10:30What was so urgent that you had to call me back?
10:33Damon! Sophia is back in the country!
10:36Sophia? Who is that?
10:40You met her before, dear?
10:42She's my niece
10:43Is that so? I don't really remember
10:52Damon, you're not getting any younger
10:54Your father cared most about your marriage
10:56Before he passed
10:57Sophia comes from a good family
10:59And has a nice personality
11:01If you two settle down soon
11:03I can finally have an explanation
11:05Mom! I already have someone I want to marry
11:08What?
11:10Oh? Really?
11:13Is...
11:14Which family is she from?
11:16When will you bring her back to meet us?
11:19On the wedding day, you'll find out
11:30Mom! Damon isn't your biological son after all
11:33If he doesn't marry Sophia
11:34Won't our family's property be taken advantage of by an outsider?
11:37Shh! Be quiet!
11:38Do you want everyone to hear you?
11:44First, go find out who the woman he's talking about is
11:47I don't believe we can't ruin this marriage
11:54Are you insane?
11:56Do you know who that is?
11:58Damon!
11:58The werewolf alpha who runs this entire city!
12:02I'm not kidding
12:03I have to marry Serena
12:05Do you want to get us killed?
12:07Once I'm married to Serena, what can he do?
12:10This is a law-based society
12:12Why are you so stubborn?
12:15Mom! Serena and I grew up together
12:18She needs me now
12:20I have to marry her
12:23Come back!
12:25This woman?
12:26She could be your plaything
12:28How can you marry her?
12:30Are you insane?
12:32Since when do you have a say in my affairs?
12:36But she has no background
12:38And she's a vampire
12:41If you marry her
12:42The entire Vitorecki family will be a laughing saw
12:50I am her background
12:52Who dares laugh at her?
13:01Who is bold enough
13:04To laugh at her?
13:21Freaking lunatic
13:26What the hell is wrong with you?
13:27It's the middle of the night
13:28Some people are trying to sleep
13:30Boss
13:31Keep going
13:39What the hell do you want?
13:42Oh!
13:46Hold still
13:54Why didn't you answer my call?
13:56I didn't hear it
13:59Has anyone ever told you you suck at lying?
14:03What the hell do you want?
14:05I'm engaged
14:06Stop harassing me
14:08Your fiancé?
14:09He's not even worth my time
14:11At least he doesn't make me a neighborhood joke
14:16Marry me
14:17I'll make sure no one dares disrespect you
14:20Never
14:21I love my fiancé
14:23And I'll never love you
14:38It doesn't matter
14:39I love you
14:40That's enough
14:46You didn't like the gifts I sent you last time
14:48I picked out some new ones
15:00Boss
15:01Boss
15:01Here
15:10Not everyone can be bought with money
15:14Boss
15:14Should I bring her back?
15:15No
15:16Miss Hastings has a fiancé
15:17What if they get married behind your back?
15:24Whoever dares to marry my woman
15:26His whole family will be run out of this city
15:32I love you
15:46I'm putting Serena in your hands
15:48Take good care of her
15:56Look at them
15:57What a perfect match
15:59This song you taught me
16:00I've played it 2,000 times
16:03I dreamed of playing it for you on our wedding day
16:05Today
16:06That dream has finally come true
16:25Freeze!
16:26Don't fucking move!
16:38Who the fuck gave you the balls to take my woman?
16:52No!
16:53Don't do it!
16:54Don't do it!
16:56Don't do it!
16:57Don't do it!
16:58Don't do it!
17:00Don't do it!
17:02Don't do it!
17:15Stood there and watched me choke to death
17:19Everyone in the pack said I was the saddest woman alive
17:22I was Alpha Dominic's lowest-ranking Omega mate, and the least wanted.
17:27The day I gave birth, Luna Victoria took my son from me, before I'd even held him properly.
17:33I didn't fight her.
17:35Victoria was the Luna.
17:37Powerful.
17:38Respected.
17:39My son would have a better life with her than he ever would with me.
17:43Years later, a pack of rogues attacked our territory.
17:47I threw myself in front of Dominic.
17:49The slash meant for his throat tore across my back instead.
17:53He said I had earned a reward.
17:55I could choose one of his sons.
17:57Raise him myself.
17:59I chose Logan.
18:01My blood.
18:02My child.
18:03I raised him for 20 years.
18:05And on the night he was named Alpha Air, he walked into my room carrying a glass of wine laced
18:11with wolfsbane.
18:12I couldn't move.
18:13The poison paralyzed me.
18:16My wolf hauled inside me.
18:17Fought like hell.
18:19But it couldn't save me.
18:21Logan stood over me and watched foam spill from my mouth.
18:24His eyes were cold.
18:26If you'd left me with Luna Victoria I'd already be heir.
18:30All you ever did was drag me down.
18:32The last thing I saw was his face.
18:34No guilt.
18:35No hesitation.
18:37Just disgust.
18:39Then everything went black.
18:41When I opened my eyes again, I was standing in the great hall.
18:46Same stone walls.
18:47Same firelight.
18:49Same five boys lined up in front of the Alpha's chair.
18:52Alpha Dominic sat above them.
18:54Selene.
18:56You saved my life.
18:58You may choose one of my sons to raise.
19:00My heart slammed.
19:02I looked at the line.
19:04Logan stood first.
19:05Dressed in the fine clothes Victoria had picked for him.
19:09That look in his eyes.
19:11Impatience.
19:12Barely hidden.
19:14Last time, I was so happy I missed the look in his eyes.
19:17Now it was impossible to miss.
19:20My stomach turned.
19:22I swallowed the nausea and forced myself to look past him.
19:25Past the second son.
19:27Past the third.
19:29At the end of the line, below the steps, stood a boy no one looked at.
19:34Finn.
19:35Head down.
19:36Kyle.
19:37The fourth son.
19:38His mother, Lyra, had been executed for breaking pack law.
19:42After that, no one wanted him.
19:45The servant said he was cursed.
19:47He was treated worse than the lowest omega in the manor.
19:50Thrown away.
19:51Hated just for being there.
19:53I knew that feeling too well.
19:56I took a breath.
19:58Raised my hand.
19:59Pointed straight at him.
20:01I want him.
20:02The hall went dead silent.
20:04Every head turned toward me.
20:06Like I'd lost my mind.
20:08Alpha Dominic stared at me for a long moment.
20:10Then he let out a short breath.
20:12Almost a laugh.
20:14Kyle?
20:15Fine.
20:16He's quiet.
20:18You're steady.
20:19That should work.
20:21Take good care of him.
20:23Right there in the hall, he raised me to a beta ranking mate.
20:26Small promotion.
20:28Still more than I'd gotten in six years.
20:30But I knew the truth.
20:32He wasn't rewarding me.
20:34He was relieved.
20:35I picked the son no one wanted.
20:38When the meeting ended, I walked over to Kyle.
20:41He was still standing there with his head down.
20:44Like he still didn't believe I meant him.
20:54I took him back to Birch Cabin, my place on the far edge of the pack estate.
20:59A tiny wooden cabin.
21:01Two rooms.
21:02A fireplace that smoked every time the wind blew in.
21:05Not much.
21:07But it was mine.
21:11Kyle.
21:12This is your home now.
21:15I'll take care of you.
21:17He didn't answer.
21:19But when I turned to leave, his fingers caught my sleeve.
21:22Tight.
21:25Kyle wasn't dark and difficult like people said.
21:28He was quiet.
21:29So quiet, sometimes I forgot he was even in the room.
21:33I didn't mind.
21:35In this life, I didn't want power.
21:38I didn't want the alpha's favor.
21:40I just wanted to stay out of trouble.
21:42Raise this boy and die peacefully.
21:45When I got old, if he came to see me once in a while, that would be enough.
21:51Every day, Kyle went to the training yard with the other boys.
21:55Combat in the morning.
21:56Lessons in the afternoon.
21:58One day, I baked a batch of cookies and took them over.
22:02I spotted him right away.
22:04He was sitting alone under a big oak tree, reading.
22:07Across the yard, Logan kicked a ball with the other boys around him.
22:12Like planets around the sun, Logan had grown up at Luna Victoria's side.
22:17Best clothes.
22:18Best food.
22:20Best of everything.
22:21Every child in the pack knew which side to stand on.
22:24Last time, I dragged him away from all of it.
22:28Made him follow a nobody omega mother.
22:30No wonder he hated me.
22:32I sat down beside Kyle and set the box on the stone bench.
22:36He looked up.
22:37A flicker of surprise crossed his face.
22:40Hungry?
22:41I opened the lid.
22:42They're fresh.
22:43Still warm.
22:44Kyle started to speak, but a sharp voice cut him off.
22:48Why are you here again?
22:50Logan walked over, looking at the cookies like they were trash.
22:54The pack kitchen feeds strays better than that.
22:57Stop coming here and embarrassing yourself.
22:58Before I could speak, Kyle stood up.
23:02He stepped between us.
23:04Logan.
23:05She's your mother.
23:06You can't talk to her like that.
23:08Logan let out a mean little laugh.
23:10My mother is Luna Victoria.
23:12This woman is nothing.
23:14He flicked a hand at the cookie box.
23:16Take your garbage and go.
23:18Stop bothering me.
23:20I pulled Kyle behind me.
23:23You've got that wrong.
23:25I'm Kyle's mother.
23:26These cookies are for Kyle.
23:28I bent down, picked one up, and held it out to Kyle.
23:32Here.
23:33Try one.
23:34Logan's face froze.
23:36He'd never imagined I'd choose Kyle over him.
23:39Kyle took a bite.
23:40A small smile touched his mouth.
23:43It's good, Mom.
23:45I smiled back.
23:47Good.
23:47I'll make more tomorrow.
23:49Then I looked at the boys behind Logan.
23:52You boys want one?
23:53They were six.
23:54At that age, a cookie is a cookie.
23:57Two of them were already reaching out.
23:59Don't touch it.
24:01Logan slapped their hands away.
24:03It's garbage.
24:04The kitchen throws out better food than this.
24:07Only losers with no taste would eat that.
24:10Then he glared at me.
24:11Good.
24:12You picked him.
24:13Don't come crawling back when you regret it.
24:16I looked at Logan, red-faced and furious, trying to act like he didn't care.
24:21I almost laughed.
24:23I promise.
24:24Kyle is my only son.
24:27Everything I have goes to him.
24:30Logan went pale.
24:31He stomped off and yelled at the others.
24:33What are you staring at?
24:35Move!
24:36He ran off.
24:37The other boys scrambled after him.
24:40That night, I tucked Kyle into bed.
24:42I thought he was asleep.
24:44Then he spoke.
24:45Mom, tomorrow, after training, can you bring cookies again?
24:50Something in me melted.
24:52I will.
24:54The day after.
24:56Every day.
24:57Kyle smiled for real, then went to sleep.
25:02The next afternoon, I brought cookies to the yard again.
25:06But the place was too quiet.
25:08Then I saw it.
25:09Kyle stood by the lake.
25:11Four pack guards had him boxed in.
25:14Logan sat on a rock above them.
25:16Hey, little brother.
25:18He pointed at the cold gray water.
25:20My ball fell in.
25:22Go get it.
25:24The lake wasn't deep.
25:26But it was late fall.
25:28That water cut like ice.
25:30Kyle said nothing.
25:32He didn't move.
25:34Logan's smile vanished.
25:35Like a spoiled kid hearing no for the first time.
25:39He jumped off the rock and yards turned toward the trees at the exact same time.
25:43Like they'd seen nothing.
25:45I didn't think.
25:47I dropped the cookies and jumped in.
25:49The cold hit me like a wall.
25:51My muscles locked up.
25:53My legs went numb around Kyle's shaking body.
25:56You pushed him.
25:58He's your brother.
25:59What the hell is wrong with you?
26:21Listening to the ambiguous moans and faint running water over the phone, I smiled bitterly.
26:26My husband Ethan was so cold-blooded, but he had no idea.
26:29The dead weren't my parents.
26:31They were his.
26:32A snake attack at the campsite left his entire family clinging for life.
26:36Only his company had the specific antivenom.
26:39I called him countless times.
26:40He hung up every single one.
26:43Delayed treatment killed them all.
26:44I stared at the five bodies behind me, sighed.
26:47By the time I got to the hospital, Ethan's entire family was already on the verge of death.
26:51The doctor pulled me aside.
26:53This species of snake is extremely rare.
26:56The only facility with the specific antivenom is your husband's company.
27:00I called Ethan like crazy.
27:02He rejected every single call.
27:05On the hundredth try, he finally answered.
27:08It's Sophia's birthday tonight.
27:10I'm spending it with her.
27:11Stop being so paranoid.
27:12I kept thinking about his family in the ER.
27:15I swallowed every question burning in my throat and said quickly,
27:19Your mom, your dad, your sister, they were all bitten.
27:21The hospital doesn't have this antivenom.
27:22Your company does.
27:23Please bring it now.
27:24One vial costs over a hundred grand.
27:26Have some self-respect, Sienna.
27:28Your whole family gets bitten and you come crying to me?
27:31What am I, your personal bank?
27:33Take a good hard look at yourself.
27:35He hung up without mercy, then blocked me.
27:38I sat frozen in a hospital chair.
27:40I couldn't make myself believe those words had just come out of my husband's mouth.
27:44He probably didn't even have the patience to listen to what I was saying.
27:47Then my phone buzzed suddenly.
27:49A Chanel boutique alert popped up.
27:51The limited birthday bag my parents had reserved.
27:53Nearly a million dollars in value.
27:55Just picked up by my husband.
27:57I didn't even have to guess.
27:58That bag was on Sophia's arm right now.
28:01Stealing my things to give to the woman he loved.
28:03He'd done it so many times.
28:05Every time I said something, he'd roll his eyes.
28:07You're married. Walking around with a bag like that just makes you look desperate.
28:10Let Sophia use it. She's closing a deal.
28:12Don't be petty. Sophia's basically my sister.
28:15If you love me, you'll support how I take care of her.
28:17If you love me, you'll support how I take care of her.
28:19He put Sophia on a pedestal.
28:20Designer bags on demand.
28:21Sports cars.
28:22A penthouse.
28:23And me, his actual wife.
28:24I couldn't even get a handful of life-saving vials.
28:27What a joke.
28:28I was still typing a message to the boutique when Ethan posted on Instagram.
28:32The most expensive bag for the most important person.
28:35Tonight belongs to us.
28:36Sophia's post followed seconds later.
28:39My night promised to always stay.
28:41Your medicine didn't just save my family.
28:43It saved my heart.
28:44The photo.
28:45The two of them pressed close, smiling.
28:47A vial of antivenom raised in her hand like a trophy.
28:50While Ethan was spending lavishly on Sophia, his own family was waiting to die.
28:54The ER doors slid open.
28:56The doctor walked out, mask already down.
28:58I rushed over.
28:59Give me a little more time.
29:00I'll get the antivenom here, I swear.
29:02There's no need.
29:04All five patients are gone.
29:06I'm so sorry for your loss.
29:09My nose burned.
29:09My chest caved in.
29:11Two hours ago, they'd been laughing.
29:12Now five bodies lay cold in the morgue while they're...
29:15I held back my tears and messaged the boutique.
29:17I never came in to pick anything up.
29:19Please contact the police.
29:20The doctor had mentioned this particular snake was nearly extinct in the country.
29:24Because of that, no hospital stalked the antivenom.
29:27A little too convenient.
29:29A near extinct snake in their tent.
29:31Five people dead.
29:33The police took it seriously and moved fast.
29:35They traced it quickly.
29:37Someone had bulk ordered live snakes online and released them at the campsite.
29:41The suspects were Sophia's parents.
29:42I hoped Ethan wouldn't cry too ugly when he found out.
29:45Ma'am, we have a clear picture of what happened.
29:47But both suspects are currently hospitalized.
29:50We can't bring them in for questioning just yet.
29:52Now I knew why Sophia was holding the serum in that picture.
29:55I kept my face blank.
29:56But the venom's already been treated.
29:58Nothing's stopping you from questioning them now.
30:00He gave me a long look, clearly wondering how I knew, but didn't push.
30:04I must have looked too hollowed out.
30:05We'll get to the truth.
30:06After he left, I filed a civil lawsuit on my phone.
30:09Right then, Ethan called.
30:11What the hell is your problem?
30:12I'm your husband, I picked up a bag for you, now you're reporting it stolen?
30:15Are you insane?
30:16One accusation after another.
30:18No pause, no care for anything I was going through right now.
30:20I cut through it, cold and quiet.
30:22I never got that bag, Ethan.
30:23You said you picked it up.
30:25Where is it now?
30:26It stretched out long enough to answer the question.
30:28His voice softened, that calculated shift I knew too well.
30:32We're husband and wife, and everything though shared.
30:35You won't have to knock I'm out out of here.
30:38Sophia just wants this bag, to nay her birthday, and I just want to make her happy.
30:42Your husband's card.
30:44Don't be like this.
30:45Absolutely shameless.
30:46The feeling of giving is wonderful, so don't be so stingy.
30:50If you want to buy her something, why don't you use your own money?
30:53Oh right, because you're completely useless.
30:56How dare you say I'm good for nothing?
30:57Are you crazy?
30:58Before, I always watched my words around him.
31:01Always protected his ego like it was something fragile.
31:04Looking back now, his skin was thicker than a wall.
31:07If you're a man, go to the hospital morgue now and see the evil you've done.
31:11They're already dead, and I can't save them.
31:14Don't spoil.
31:14Don't my kishin'd.
31:17First, bank cream at your parents.
31:19Don't up their bodies, get my companies for the atop salmol.
31:22Sophia's parents had an accident, and she is on the verge of collapse.
31:25She needs someone to accompany her.
31:27I laughed.
31:28So he thought it was my family.
31:30I'd been planning to give his parents a proper burial as soon as possible.
31:33Instead, I ordered five industrial freezer units.
31:36Per Ethan's request, I sent his entire family to his company.
31:40I'd been home barely ten minutes when Ethan burst in and slapped me across the face.
31:45Sophia's hysterical.
31:46Her parents just got out of surgery, and you're already suing them.
31:48Do you even have a conscience?
31:50At least they're alive.
31:52The people their snakes killed are still lying in those freezers.
31:56Something flickered in Ethan's eyes.
31:57That was my anti-venom.
31:58I give it to whoever I want.
32:00Your parents had no business going camping.
32:03They got bitten.
32:05That's on them.
32:07Sophia's parents are sitting in a hospital being questioned by detectives because of
32:11your lawsuit.
32:13Can't you show a little mercy to the living?
32:15Maybe your parents getting bitten was karma for you being so cold-hearted.
32:19Maybe this was just your parents' fate.
32:21If it wasn't a snake, something else would have taken them out.
32:25Your whole family is gone now.
32:27I'm all you have left.
32:29Don't be ungrateful.
32:32Sienna, I know you're hurting.
32:35But the dead are gone.
32:36The living have to keep going.
32:38Sophia is willing to offer compensation.
32:40I'll top it up.
32:42A million dollars total.
32:44That's enough, isn't it?
32:45He said it like he was talking about the weather.
32:47Five lives.
32:48In their eyes, worth a million dollars.
32:51Ethan was spoiled rotten by his parents his whole life.
32:53Thinking about the moment he'd open those freezers and see their faces,
32:56I couldn't help but wear a sorrowful smile.
32:59What's so funny?
33:00Stop playing games.
33:02Will you agree to my terms?
33:03Ethan didn't have the patience to let me finish after all.
33:05I wiped the corner of my eye, still smiling.
33:08Okay.
33:08Transfer it then.
33:09Payment received.
33:10One million dollars.
33:11Ethan had covered the rest.
33:13Almost certainly every dollar of liquid cash his company had left.
33:17He watched me accept it.
33:18I should tell you this morning I signed a formal letter of non-prosecution on your behalf as your husband.
33:23Sophia's parents are already off the hook.
33:25You should be thanking Sophia for being so generous.
33:28Without her, you wouldn't have seen a dime.
33:30Now go tell the police the theft report was a mistake.
33:32I reached into the nightstand drawer and pulled out the divorce agreement I'd drawn up that morning.
33:37Sign it.
33:38Return my bag.
33:39We're done.
33:40Or I come after you too.
33:41You're divorcing me over this?
33:43I could see the calculation behind the rage.
33:45He needed my father's connections.
33:47But he also thought my father was dead and no longer of any use to him.
33:51Called after him.
33:52Checked his signature carefully.
33:54Everything in order.
33:55Ethan, there's a waiting period.
33:57We're technically still married.
33:59Come with me to your company.
34:01Say goodbye to your family one last time.
34:03We arrived at his company together.
34:05I was certain Ethan's mind was on Sophia.
34:07And he still hadn't heard a word I said.
34:10The basement ran cold.
34:11The chill hit me the moment I stepped in.
34:14Five bodies lay in a row.
34:16Covered in white sheep.
34:17My company is not a dump.
34:19Mom.
34:20Dad, I'm so sorry.
34:21And Ava.
34:22Marcus.
34:22What the fuck are you talking about?
34:24Say it again!
34:25If I'm lying, I said, go look for yourself.
34:30He stood there for a long moment.
34:32Then he moved toward the nearest stretcher slowly.
34:34His hands were shaking so badly he could barely grip the sheep.
34:58Mafia's tradition.
34:59Whoever gives me an orchid marries me.
35:01I stood in the hall with 11 other men waiting to be chosen.
35:05No orchid tonight.
35:06I'd be forced to marriage her in New York.
35:08Rumors said she burned through a new guy every single night.
35:11One night, one man, then gone.
35:13I had only one way out.
35:15Charlotte.
35:16We grew up together.
35:18She was the Chase family heir.
35:19And I was a casino mogul's illegitimate son.
35:22In this city, only she dared give me that flower.
35:25Last night, I'd asked her for a fake marriage.
35:27Three years was enough to build something for myself.
35:29After that, she could love whoever she wanted.
35:32She'd said yes.
35:33Now she smiled and walked toward me.
35:39I let out my hand.
35:40Then she pressed her orchid into Tyler's hands instead.
35:45I stood, frozen.
35:47Let Tyler have his moment.
35:49He's never had one.
35:50Don't worry, no one's arranging anything for you while I'm around.
35:54I watched Tyler take her arm.
35:55They looked like a couple.
35:57I stood alone.
35:59She came back with champagne, laughing.
36:01These people, honestly.
36:03I told them to save you at least one flower.
36:05I looked at the girl I'd grown up beside.
36:07Do you understand what this gala actually is?
36:10She didn't answer.
36:11Charlotte was the only one who would have chosen me.
36:13She chose someone else.
36:15The room kept moving.
36:17I felt very still.
36:18It was over.
36:19Charlotte's expression shifted.
36:20A faint flicker of guilt crossing her face.
36:23She waved Tyler off.
36:24Look, you're used to these events.
36:27But Tyler's never had anything like this.
36:29I just wanted to give him one good night.
36:30Consider it a favor from me.
36:32You're not really upset, are you?
36:33It's one night.
36:34I said nothing.
36:35It's his graduation.
36:37After tonight, I can't sponsor him anymore.
36:38I promised him one memory worth keeping.
36:40Ethan, I'm sorry if I got in the way.
36:42Don't be angry at Charlotte.
36:43I begged her to-
36:43Charlotte caught Tyler's awkward expression and her eyes cooled slightly.
36:46Ethan, it's one flower.
36:48I'll give you another one.
36:50You're more of a rose anyway.
36:51Getting worked up over one orclet isn't like you.
36:53I supposed that tract.
36:54An orchid meant purity.
36:55It symbolized the acceptance of a family.
36:58A rose.
36:59Passionate.
37:00Showy.
37:00Like a clandestine lover.
37:03The laughter around me grew louder.
37:06A bastard son who follows Charlotte around like a lapdog.
37:10And he thought he'd actually marry into the Chase family?
37:14And that was a Sussis family?
37:16Even the scholarship kid outranks him.
37:18Charlotte silenced them with a glare.
37:20But it was already enough to humiliate me.
37:22Ethan, I'm sorry.
37:24You were born into wealth while I just wanted a memorable night.
37:28Born into wealth?
37:29I'm a bastard son.
37:31Do you have any idea how this family actually treats me?
37:34Tyler froze, startled by me.
37:38My bad.
37:38But I was the only one who caught the cunning flash in his eyes.
37:43It's already done.
37:44I'll take you to get changed.
37:46And Ethan, you can head home if you want.
37:48Home.
37:48Where exactly was that supposed to be?
37:51Then they left.
37:52Vanessa Lee appeared almost instantly.
37:55You smell amazing, Mr. Holt.
37:58Charlotte told me to give you an orchid.
38:00I didn't.
38:01I told you to stop chasing her and try me instead.
38:05But you never listened.
38:07How's it feel now?
38:09Embarrassing, right?
38:09Charlotte knew.
38:10This woman despised me.
38:12I just needed three years.
38:13I just needed three years.
38:14Three years to build enough leverage to break free from my family's control.
38:17But my stepmother couldn't stand the sight of me.
38:20She was already rushing to throw me out.
38:25Ethan Holt.
38:26If you weren't so pretty, you'd be nothing.
38:28You really think the Chase family is going to protect you forever?
38:34Vanessa, don't touch what's mine.
38:36I thought you picked the scholarship kid.
38:38Why are you still keeping Ethan around?
38:39My business, not yours.
38:42Why didn't you do anything?
38:44I felt nothing but deep, tired disappointment.
38:47Wasn't this what you arranged?
38:49I can look out for you and still talk to other people, Ethan.
38:52I'm not required to stand next to you all night.
38:54But you know what tonight's gala means.
38:55Can we get some drinks?
38:56Is that okay?
38:56Sure, tonight's yours.
38:58Whatever you want.
38:59Whatever it is, we'll talk tomorrow.
39:00I'll come find you.
39:01I almost laughed out loud.
39:03Tomorrow, you'll have to find me in New York.
39:06The shyness he wore earlier was gone, replaced by something colder.
39:10You have everything, Mr. Holt.
39:12Do you really need to take this too?
39:14I should never have helped Charlotte choose him for that scholarship.
39:18You grew up with everything you could want.
39:21All I wanted was one night under Charlotte's protection.
39:26I let out a quiet sneer.
39:28You think I had it better than you?
39:29My mother died young.
39:33I was brought back to the Holt house, just a child.
39:36My stepmother looked at me like I shouldn't exist, from the very first day.
39:40My father had too many wives, too many children, to care about one more.
39:44I learned early, how to read a room, how to make myself useful.
39:47I found Aunt Diana, in the margins.
39:50I convinced her to train me, to back me.
39:52I stood in front of her, forcing my hands to stay still.
39:55My father has over 20 children.
39:56Why would I believe a bastard son can beat all of them?
39:59Because I have no weakness.
40:03And I'm willing to fight dirty.
40:05But my time hadn't come yet.
40:07Diana wouldn't move for me, not now.
40:09Everyone said my fiancé from the Quinn family was a deadly, poisonous flower.
40:14My family wanted the alliance, but not the cost.
40:17They wouldn't sacrifice a true heir, so they offered me.
40:20Diana had already heard how the gala ended.
40:22A message arrived.
40:23Figure it out yourself.
40:25I needed a solution.
40:29Well, can you get the orchid back from Tyler?
40:30Just for one night.
40:31I'll return it in the morning.
40:32Charlotte Blink, clearly caught off guard.
40:34That's a bit awkward, isn't it?
40:36I already gave it.
40:37Stop trying to take things from Tyler.
40:39The orchid had a gold-trimmed edge, custom-made.
40:42There was no replacing it.
40:43The restraint I'd held all night, finally snapped.
40:46Charlotte, you promised!
40:48Why did you have to humiliate me tonight, of all nights?
40:51Ethan, no one in this city will touch you.
40:54The only person who could ever want you is me.
40:57Everyone knows you're my little shadow.
40:58Her little shadow.
41:00Her lapdog.
41:00I had played that role for years, just to survive.
41:03But hearing her say it so casually, like it meant nothing, it hit harder than I expected.
41:08Don't be angry at Charlotte, Ethan.
41:10Ethan, one night.
41:11Stop being difficult.
41:12Tomorrow he goes back to his normal life.
41:13I gave Charlotte a long, lingering look, then turned, and walked out of the gala.
41:18Aunt Diana's car was already waiting outside.
41:21You lost.
41:21Tomorrow you go to New York.
41:22What happens after that is your problem.
41:24I'll come back.
41:25We'll see.
41:46The tank burst.
41:47The wave slammed me across the floor.
41:49Yet my fiancé now held another woman in his arms.
41:52And all of this was because his younger sister Lila and I were caught in a rip current off Puget
41:57Sound.
41:58I was saved.
41:59Lila lost her life.
42:00The Blackwood family thinks it was me who had killed their biological daughter.
42:04Why are you still alive?
42:06You should have been the one who drowned.
42:08You killed my daughter!
42:10Killia tossed my ring, shredded my wedding gown, and agreed to marry Serena.
42:14The next day, coming home from the hospital, I saw Killian slicing our wedding portrait with a knife.
42:21Serena's moving in.
42:22Time to clear all this trash out.
42:23Serena Vanderbilt, his arranged marriage fiancé.
42:26After throwing all this away, are you gonna kick me out next?
42:30You said you were dying of your illness, didn't you?
42:33Then it's only fitting you go to atone for Lila in death.
42:36My body turned rigid when I heard those words.
42:38Killian Blackwood was the unloved Blackwood's son, raised outside the manor walls from childhood.
42:43I had given this brooding boy next door a single piece of candy.
42:47Because of that one small sweetness, after my parents died in an earthquake,
42:51Killian protected me for 15 years.
42:53Countless days of depending on each other, I fell in love with the man who held me.
42:57At 20, I had written a hundred love letters and confided my longing to my best friend, Chloe Reed.
43:02Never did I expect Chloe to tell Killian everything.
43:05That night, he made me take out the letters and read them aloud to him.
43:08I'm sorry.
43:09I'll never dare to whiber any improper thoughts again.
43:11From now on, I'll treat you as my elder brother.
43:14For 15 years, it wasn't that you needed me to raise you, was that I needed your company.
43:19That same year, the Blackwoods came to bring him home, but they wouldn't accept me,
43:24because the Blackwood house could not hold two daughters.
43:26Killian put the messenger on the floor and looked at his father, Arthur Blackwood.
43:30No her, no me.
43:32I knew how desperately Killian longed to return home,
43:35yet he chose to stand by my side, even at the cost of breaking with his family.
43:40We dated five years before marrying with approval.
43:43His sister Lila despised me.
43:45To ease the tension, Killian brought Lila with us on our coastal wedding photo shoot.
43:49After the photo shoot, I saw Lila in the rip current.
43:52I rushed to save her without hesitation.
43:54I survived, but Lila perished.
43:57The Blackwoods blamed me, saying the adopted daughter had doomed their own child.
44:01Do you think it was my fault too?
44:03You both went into the water.
44:05You survived.
44:06She didn't.
44:07To this family, that's a crime.
44:08I knelt for three days and nights, begging for their forgiveness.
44:12However, all I got was a miscarriage.
44:14That night, I was diagnosed with cancer.
44:16I called Killian.
44:18He thought I was faking sick to trick him.
44:20To punish me, he burned my 1,999 love letters right in front of me,
44:25then froze my bank card.
44:26What burned to ashes was not only my true love, but also my desire to survive.
44:32That night, Killian stumbled home drunk, demanding something to sober up.
44:36When I passed him the hangover soup, I spotted my favorite lemon tarts on the table.
44:40He shoved me away.
44:43Put those down.
44:44They're for Serena.
44:45What are you doing so close?
44:46Still trying to lure me?
44:48You're drunk.
44:49I'm making you sobering soup.
44:52Sorry, I was too drunk.
44:53I mistook you for Serena.
44:55He got up and pushed me away.
44:56He'd never been so cold to me, nor so rough.
44:59Killian didn't spare me a glance.
45:01Walked upstairs and slammed the door.
45:03Everything changed the day Lila died.
45:05I knew he hated me for living, yet I could do nothing.
45:08The light was still on in Killian's room.
45:09I knocked softly.
45:11Coming to a man's room this late, do you have any sense at all?
45:13We're broken up.
45:14I want to move out.
45:16Stop you from spouting nonsense.
45:17You must stay here until I marry Serena.
45:20Can I at least move to the lower level?
45:22It's up to you.
45:25I turned and walked back to my room in silence.
45:27I didn't understand his anger.
45:30Lila was gone forever.
45:31How could I possibly live here in peace?
45:34This forced stay gave me time to ease myself into preparing to leave.
45:39The next morning, passing through the living room, I heard Killian talking on the phone
45:43with Serena.
45:44Killian caught sight of me suddenly, then ended the call.
45:47Where are you going?
45:48I'll drive you.
45:49I froze.
45:50Before I could answer, he was already walking out to the garage.
45:53He leaned on the horn.
45:54Are you getting in or do you want me to carry you?
45:56I can't sit up front.
45:58What?
45:59Serena said that's her seat.
46:00Even siblings don't get it.
46:02That's not.
46:03Serena's voice broke through the phone in his hand.
46:05Kilton, where are you going?
46:07Don't let any other girl take the passenger seat.
46:09That's mine.
46:11Even your sister.
46:11Killian switched to a different car.
46:14Something unnamed moved through him.
46:16What are you going to do?
46:16I didn't answer.
46:18Killian didn't push.
46:19When Serena called, he laughed and softened, turning into someone I barely recognized.
46:24I just bought us matching pajamas.
46:25I'll model them tonight.
46:27As their words grew bolder and more explicit, Killian pulled into the emergency lane.
46:31Get out.
46:32Serena's waiting me.
46:55A destitute stripper who suffers from bills.
47:02Three months ago, I'd been planning to audition for the New York Ballet Company.
47:06Now I was applying glitter to my skin for men who would tuck dollar bills into my G-string.
47:10Three months ago, the wedding day of me and a man I had never met, Ethan Pacheco.
47:15A marriage I wanted no part of.
47:16I had slipped away while the guests were arriving, needing a moment to breathe, to think.
47:21I had wandered aimlessly until I heard sounds coming from one of the guest bedrooms.
47:25Although the man had his back to me, I knew he must be my fiancé who I had never met.
47:29Without twice thought, I drived away from the estate.
47:32Away from Ethan Pacheco and the future that had been decided for me.
47:36I ended up at a bar downtown in the late night, drowning my sorrows in tequila shots.
47:40That's when he appeared beside me.
47:51Bad day?
47:54The worst.
48:00I'm Ethan.
48:03Of course you are.
48:05I, uh...
48:07I'm running away from one Ethan tonight. I don't need another.
48:11I had laughed then. A bitter, hollow sound.
48:14The funny thing was, with all the drama going on, I still didn't know what my fucking fiancé looked like.
48:19But this guy had been charming.
48:21Attentive.
48:22And I'd been vulnerable, hurt, and increasingly drunk.
48:25When he suggested we get a room at the hotel next door, I hadn't said no.
48:44With nothing but a lingering hangover, and the crushing realization that I couldn't go home again,
48:49not to face my father's disappointment,
48:50so I'd disappeared, cutting off contact with everyone from my old life.
48:54My savings hadn't lasted long.
48:56Now I had to dance in a bar to earn money.
48:58The bar had been booked out by the owner tonight.
49:00He was going to hold an important party in the VIP room.
49:06Those eyes, almond-shaped, hazel with flecks of gold, exactly like, no, oh god no, this can't be happening.
49:13That night at the bar, my one-night stand as my boss and ex-fiancé, his eyes met mine, and
49:19the world stopped spinning.
49:24Stop staring at the boss.
49:26Are you crazy?
49:29I immediately dropped my gaze.
49:31The tiny, sequined outfit left little to the imagination, but it was better than being completely naked.
49:36I needed this job.
49:37Rent wasn't going to pay itself.
49:39Did he recognize me?
49:40Shouldn't your older brother be running this meeting?
49:44I can't imagine your father Henry's crazy enough to let a 23-year-old handle business of this magnitude.
49:52Everyone turned to gauge Ethan's reaction, the tension thick enough to cut with a knife.
49:59Care to guess why I'm the heir while my big brother works under me?
50:02You're not in any position to question my capabilities.
50:05The man's face reddened.
50:07He wisely kept his mouth shut.
50:08The meeting dragged on, numbers and threats mixing with the heavy beat of the music.
50:13I felt increasingly light-headed.
50:15The room started to spin.
50:17Or was I the one spinning?
50:21I landed hard on the floor, right in front of the gathered crime family bosses.
50:26Is this how you dance, you worthless slit?
50:28Ruining our evening with your amateur bullshit?
50:31I looked up to see an ugly older man in the corner.
50:34He pulled out a thick wad of cash, throwing it on the ground.
50:38Bills scattered across the floor like fallen leaves.
50:40If you don't want to lose those pretty legs of yours, crawl over here and give me a proper lap
50:46dance.
50:48And don't stop until every piece of that costume is on the floor.
51:06I'm doing it.
51:11Just teaching your feelings.
51:12We're going in.
51:12You're going to come to death.
