Transcript
00:00A shamelessly alluring slit.
00:02That's what the whole rogue camp called mom, with her tiny waist and heavy breasts.
00:07She was nothing but a toy to them.
00:09Every night, Brutus dragged her into the tin shack.
00:11He threw her onto the dirty mattress and ripped her clothes off.
00:15Outside, the other rogues would howl and cheer.
00:17That is the beauty of a wolfless bitch.
00:19She can't shift or fight back, so you can play all those dirty little games with her.
00:23When Brutus finished, he threw her into the dirt, leaving her pale skin covered in fresh bruises.
00:28Then Grandmother stepped in, cracking a whip across mom's back.
00:31You're cursed, wolfless trash! You bring us nothing but bad luck!
00:35Mom just knelt in the mud.
00:37Weighed down by heavy silver chains, her eyes were completely vacant.
00:41I threw myself over her body and cried.
00:43Leave her alone! Protecting mommy, huh?
00:46You worthless brat! Let me-
00:49Listen up! A feral wolf broke loose! Nobody moves tonight!
00:52After Grandmother glared at me and walked away,
00:54I grabbed a damp rag to gently clean the blood from mom's back.
00:58She stared blankly at the moon.
00:59Hold on, mom. I will get you out of here.
01:02She gave no response, but I could see her eyes light up just a fraction.
01:06My chance came three days later when Brutus gathered the entire camp.
01:10Locking his dark, menacing eyes onto me, he warned.
01:13A pack patrol is driving past the ridge soon.
01:15If anyone makes a sound, I will rip your throat out.
01:18I pretended to tremble.
01:20Yet my mind was racing.
01:21If I could reach that patrol, we could be saved.
01:24But being wolfless too, I had no claws to fight off savage rogues and no wolf speed to outrun them.
01:29Later that night, my eyes snapped open when a cold hand suddenly cupped my cheek.
01:34It was mom, and surprisingly, her gaze was lucid.
01:37As tears immediately spilled down my face, she clamped a hand over my mouth,
01:41glancing nervously at the door before leaning in close.
01:44Listen to me, Amara.
01:46When that patrol passes, you run.
01:49No, I'm not leaving you!
01:52I'm bound by silver and can't move.
01:55Get to the highway, flag them down, and tell them to take you to the silver fane pack.
01:59You must find a man named...
02:01Heavy boots crunched outside the door.
02:03Mom instantly slumped against the wall,
02:05her crazed facade returning as she stared vacantly at her feet.
02:09Reeking of cheap booze, Brutus kicked the door open,
02:11stumbled inside, and collapsed onto his mattress, immediately snoring.
02:16Lying awake in the dark with my heart pounding,
02:18my mind raced with questions.
02:20The silver fang pack?
02:21And who was I supposed to find?
02:23She didn't get to finish her sentence,
02:25but it didn't matter because I was going to find him anyway.
02:28Just wait for me, mom.
02:29Just wait.
02:31Three days passed.
02:32By midnight, Brutus was dead drunk,
02:34grandmother was asleep in her shack,
02:36and the two rogue sentries were nodding off.
02:38I crept to mom's side and tugged at the lock,
02:40but it wouldn't open.
02:42The key was dangling right around Brutus's neck.
02:44Holding my breath, I tiptoed to his bed.
02:47My fingers barely brushed the leather cord when Brutus suddenly rolled over.
02:51I froze in absolute terror.
02:53A torturous minute passed before his heavy snoring finally resumed.
02:56With a quick yank, I snapped the cord,
02:59clutched the iron key, and darted back into the shadows.
03:01My hands were shaking so badly that I could barely guide the key into the lock.
03:05Click.
03:06The lock opened,
03:07and the heavy chains dropped to the ground with a loud clang.
03:10It sounded like a gunshot in the dead of night,
03:12leaving both mom and me stunned.
03:14A sentry instantly raised his head at the entrance.
03:16Who the hell is there?
03:18With no time to hide,
03:19I grabbed mom and tried to drag her toward the trees.
03:22But her legs were like jelly.
03:24Sixteen years of being bound by silver chains had completely ruined her muscles.
03:28She couldn't even stand.
03:30I desperately hoisted her onto my back.
03:32And I ran.
03:33A sharp whistle pierced the night,
03:35instantly followed by a chorus of blood-curdling howls.
03:37The wolfless bitch took my toy!
03:40Hunt them down!
03:41Behind us,
03:42the rogues shifted into wolves,
03:44and they were three times faster than me.
03:46I ran until my lungs burned.
03:48Put me down.
03:49Run by yourself.
03:51Mom wheezed.
03:52Never!
03:52Blood and sweat stunned my eyes,
03:54but my only thought was to keep running.
03:56This was our only chance to escape that hellhole.
03:59Suddenly,
03:59a flash of light cut through the dark trees.
04:02The highway.
04:03Headlights pierced the darkness.
04:04Three black SUVs skidded to a halt.
04:07On their doors was a glowing silver emblem,
04:09a snarling wolf.
04:11It was the silver fong pack.
04:13Rogue howls echoed right on our heels.
04:15I tightened my grip on Mom.
04:16I broke through the trees,
04:18and jumped blindly into the road.
04:20Tires smoked violently on the asphalt as the lead SUV slammed on its brakes.
04:24Car doors flew open,
04:26and massive enforcers piled out with their weapons drawn.
04:29Who goes there?
04:30Clutching Mom,
04:31I dropped to my knees on the road,
04:33my voice breaking.
04:34Please,
04:35save her.
04:36Save my mom.
04:38Then,
04:38the door of the last SUV clicked open,
04:40and a tall man in a dark trench coat stepped out into the biting wind.
04:44He moved with grace,
04:45yet radiated an aura of pure terror.
04:47The moonlight caught his ruthless features,
04:49and the fierce gold glow of his eyes in the dark.
04:51He was an alpha.
04:53The enforcers immediately parted as he walked toward us,
04:56stopping right in front of me,
04:57to look down at the broken woman in my arms.
05:00And then,
05:01he froze.
05:02He dropped into a crouch,
05:04his voice trembling when he spoke.
05:06What is her name?
05:07I couldn't answer him.
05:08Staring at his face,
05:10I realized,
05:10he looked exactly like the man in the faded photo.
05:14The one Mom kept hidden under her dirty pillow.
05:17I reached a trembling hand out to him,
05:19but he didn't even flinch,
05:20he just kept staring at Mom's face as tears spilled from his eyes.
05:24As the snarling rogues drew closer,
05:25the alpha looked up,
05:27his golden eyes sweeping past us toward the dark woods.
05:29Slaughter them.
05:30The others shifted into huge wolves and tore into the trees.
05:33A chorus of sickening crunches and desperate screams echoed through the night,
05:38followed quickly by dead silence.
05:40The alpha didn't even look back.
05:42What's her name?
05:44Who are you?
05:45He pulled a faded photo from his pocket,
05:48showing a young woman in a white dress.
05:50I stared at the picture,
05:51realizing they were the exact same eyes looking up from my arms.
05:54Her name is Pearl.
05:56She went missing 16 years ago.
05:58We grew up together in nearby packs.
06:01My heart slammed against my ribs.
06:03Pearl.
06:04I didn't even know Mom's real name,
06:05since the rogues only ever called her a crazy bitch,
06:08a wolfless,
06:09or Brutus' whore.
06:10But then a memory hit me,
06:11one night when Brutus was drunk.
06:13Pearl,
06:14I found myself a damn treasure.
06:16I looked down at Mom,
06:17her hollow eyes half open,
06:19her dirty fingers trembling.
06:20You're Lucas.
06:26He gently gathered her fragile body from my arms.
06:29Pearl,
06:29it's me.
06:30I'm Lucas.
06:32I searched for you for 16 years.
06:35Lucas did not let go of Mom's hand,
06:37holding it the entire drive back to the silver fong pack.
06:40When the SUV finally stopped in front of the pack house,
06:43he scooped Mom up and carried her inside,
06:46while I shadowed him closely.
06:47As we rushed into the foyer,
06:49a blonde woman took one look at Mom and froze.
06:51Alpha,
06:52what is-
06:52Get the pack,
06:53doctor.
06:53Catching sight of the raw,
06:55black and silver burns on Mom's skin,
06:56the woman instantly paled and darted down the hall.
06:59Lucas gently laid Mom on a bed,
07:01standing silently over her while I hovered in the doorway.
07:04What's your name?
07:05Amara.
07:06Amara,
07:07how old are you?
07:0816.
07:08Lucas closed his eyes.
07:10As the devastating truth hit him,
07:12he had searched for her for 16 years,
07:14only for her to be chained like a dog.
07:16The entire time,
07:18when he finally opened his eyes.
07:20You're home now.
07:21No one will ever touch you again.
07:23As I stared up at the Alpha,
07:24the tears I had swallowed my entire life finally spilled over.
07:27An agonizing hour passed,
07:29before the pack doctor a grizzled older wolf with a grim face,
07:32stepped out of the bedroom.
07:34Standing in the hallway,
07:35I watched him speak to Lucas,
07:37who didn't say a single word,
07:39as his fists clenched white-knuckled at his sides.
07:42Once the doctor left,
07:43Lucas walked over and looked me dead in the eyes.
07:45Amaya,
07:46I need you to tell me exactly what your mom survived.
07:49Pure,
07:50unfiltered murder bled into Lucas's features,
07:52as his glowing gold eyes didn't just darken,
07:55but snapped to a violent blood red,
07:57radiating the aura of absolute,
07:59uncontrollable Alpha rage.
08:00After a long,
08:01he pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
08:05Dig up everything from the day Pearl sippist,
08:07find every person who touched her or spoke to her,
08:10and start with her fiancé, Silas.
08:12Three days later,
08:14a black sedan pulled up to the steps of the silver fong pack house.
08:18I'm Silas,
08:19Pearl's fiancé.
08:19Tell Alpha Lucas I'm here to take her home.
08:22Crouching quietly on the landing of the grand staircase,
08:24I watched him step into the foyer.
08:26Lucas,
08:27I can't thank you enough.
08:28I never stopped looking for her,
08:29and since hearing she was actually alive,
08:31I haven't slept a wink.
08:43Heavy footsteps soon echoed down the long hallway,
08:46stopping right outside Mom's bedroom door.
08:48Mom sat quietly by the window,
08:50in a clean white nightgown,
08:51her hair softly brushed over her shoulders.
08:54Pearl,
08:55is it really you?
08:57She slowly turned,
08:58but the second she saw his face,
09:02Don't touch me!
09:03Stay away!
09:04Toppling her chair,
09:06she desperately dragged herself into the corner,
09:08curling into a tight ball and shaking violently.
09:10Pearl,
09:11it's me.
09:12It's Silas.
09:13Don't you remember me?
09:15When he took a single step forward,
09:17her screams hit a fever pitch,
09:18as her broken fingernails gouged into the drywall.
09:21Get out!
09:22Get the hell away from her!
09:23I shoved Silas back with all my might.
09:26She hasn't recovered from the trauma.
09:28It's okay.
09:30I understand.
09:31I'll wait for her.
09:32I'll wait forever if I have to.
09:34The moment the door clicked shut,
09:35I turned back to Mom.
09:37Her screaming stopped instantly,
09:39the frantic shaking slowing to a silent tremble.
09:41But as absolute,
09:42raw terror filled her eyes,
09:44the chilling truth hit me,
09:45she knew exactly who he was,
09:47and she was deathly afraid of him.
09:48Silas did not leave,
09:50instead,
09:50he came to see Mom every day.
09:52He brought top-tier werewolf specialists to treat her.
09:55He showed up with designer dresses,
09:57gourmet pastries,
09:58and fresh flowers.
09:59He was unfailingly patient.
10:01When Mom snapped one day and slapped him hard,
10:04Silas merely smiled at her.
10:05It's okay, Pearl.
10:07Take all the time you need.
10:08Even when she bit his arm and drew blood,
10:10he simply pulled her close and stroked her back.
10:12He's incredible.
10:14Pearl is so damn lucky.
10:15He waited for her 16 years.
10:17Simus is a very honorable alpha.
10:20He's a perfect mate.
10:21But every time Silas came near,
10:24Mom would tense up,
10:25her body recoiling on pure primal instinct.
10:27As six months passed,
10:28however,
10:29her mind slowly seemed to clear.
10:31Then, one day,
10:32Lucas,
10:32I want to go back to the blood moon pack.
10:34I want to be with Simus.
10:35Lucas went dead silent for a moment
10:37before he finally nodded.
10:39Pearl,
10:40I'll spend the rest of my life proving my love to you.
10:43As the entire pack erupted into loud cheers,
10:46the stage was set for a spectacular Luna ceremony.
10:48She wore a stunning white gown,
10:51her red hair woven with silver moon lilies,
10:53while Silas looked at her
10:54like she was the only woman in the world.
10:57I do.
10:57A flicker of coldness flashed deep in her eyes,
11:00not the look of a bride,
11:01but of a ruthless apex predator.
11:03After the Luna ceremony,
11:05we officially moved into Silas's estate,
11:07which was when I first met Vanessa.
11:09She was supposedly Silas's head housekeeper,
11:12but calling her that was a damn joke.
11:14She stalked around the estate
11:16in skin-tight designer dresses
11:18with flawlessly done makeup,
11:20looking at Silas not with submission,
11:22but with pure ownership,
11:23like he was her mate.
11:25Vanessa had a 14-year-old son named Marcus,
11:27who was already built like a fighter
11:29with sharp features and striking eyes.
11:31When the teacher assigned me a seat,
11:33right next to him,
11:34on my first day at the pack academy.
11:38So, you're the new Luna's kid, huh?
11:40Yeah.
11:41Sliding his textbook into the middle of the desk,
11:43he flashed a bright, easy smile.
11:45Share with me.
11:46The teacher talks fast,
11:48and you'll fall behind on your first day.
11:50Blinking in surprise,
11:51I had the hopeful thought for a split second,
11:54that living in the blood moon pack
11:55might not be a total nightmare.
11:57I was dead wrong.
11:59Three days after we moved in,
12:01Vanessa cornered me in the upstairs hallway.
12:03Amara, right?
12:04I hope you're settling in perfectly.
12:06If you ever need anything at all,
12:08just let me know.
12:09I'm fine.
12:10Thanks.
12:11Amara,
12:12keep a very close eye on your mother
12:14and make sure she doesn't go wandering around the estate.
12:17We wouldn't want any accidents to happen.
12:19She didn't raise her voice at all
12:21because she didn't have to.
12:22It wasn't advice,
12:24but a clear, calculated threat.
12:26One night,
12:27as I walked past Silas's study,
12:29the whispers spilling through the cracked door.
12:31You promised me, Silas.
12:33Once the plan is finished,
12:35you banish Pearl for good.
12:37We have to wait a little longer.
12:39Wait for what?
12:40What damn plan?
12:42Bile rose in my throat,
12:43and though I wanted to scream,
12:44I had absolutely zero proof.
12:46The next morning,
12:47I stood behind Mom at her vanity,
12:50gently brushing her long red hair
12:52while she stared blankly into the mirror.
12:54Mom, what do you think of Vanessa?
12:56I whispered carefully.
12:59The woman always hovering around Silas.
13:02Slowly reaching out,
13:04she grabbed her lipstick
13:05and scrawled a single word across the mirror.
13:07Fox.
13:08I looked down at her in shock
13:10as she offered her usual,
13:12vacant smile,
13:13but the chilling truth finally hit me.
13:15She wasn't crazy at all.
13:17She knew exactly what they were plotting.
13:19While Mom continued to play the helpless victim,
13:22I started hunting for my own answers in the shadows,
13:24and it didn't take long to find the cracks.
13:26Crack number one was Silas's private study,
13:28where a heavy safe was bolted to the floorboards
13:31behind doors he deadbolted
13:32every single time he went inside.
13:33Crack number two was the full moon.
13:35Whenever its pull reached its absolute peak,
13:38Silas would take his SUV
13:39and vanish into the woods alone,
13:41never returning until dawn.
13:42Crack number three was Marcus.
13:44He was supposed to be Vanessa's son from a dead rogue,
13:46a shameful mistake from her reckless youth,
13:48but standing side by side,
13:50he and Silas looked exactly like father and son,
13:52proving the pack rumors were complete bullshit.
13:54When Marcus stopped me after school one day,
13:56You've been avoiding me, Amara.
13:59No, I haven't.
14:00Then why do you look at me like I'm a threat?
14:02I'm just stressed.
14:03It's a new pack and a new school.
14:05It's a lot.
14:07Did you figure it out?
14:08Figure what out?
14:09My mom and Silas.
14:10They aren't what they pretend to be.
14:11If you want to keep your mom alive,
14:12don't trust anyone in this pack.
14:13Not even me.
14:15What the hell did Marcus actually know?
14:18Why would he warn me?
14:19Or was this just the beginning of something much worse?
14:21When I told my mom what Marcus had said,
14:23the room went graveyard silent before she finally looked at me.
14:26He's Silas' son.
14:28I sucked in a sharp breath.
14:29Deep down, I had already suspected it,
14:32but hearing her confirm out loud that Marcus was the son of Silas and Vanessa still hit me hard.
14:37It made everything so much worse.
14:39For 16 years, Silas had claimed he'd never taken a wife,
14:43that he'd stayed alone,
14:44faithfully waiting for Pearl to come home.
14:46Everyone in the pack saw him as the loyal alpha and the grieving mate.
14:49What a sick joke.
14:51He already had a family.
14:53He'd just hidden them both.
14:54Then why did he still want to marry you?
14:57Pack.
14:58I understood.
15:00Silas never wanted my mom for love.
15:02He wanted the blood moon pack that stood behind her.
15:04As the only daughter of the former alpha,
15:07Pearl was the last living claimant whose bloodline succession rights
15:10were legitimately recognized by the elder council.
15:1216 years ago,
15:13Silas had been the pack's beta and my mom's promised mate.
15:16By selling her to Brutus,
15:18his motive was obvious.
15:19Get rid of the true heir.
15:21Step in as acting alpha.
15:23Control the pack from the shadows and make it look perfectly legal.
15:27But there was one thing he never saw coming.
15:29Pearl came back alive.
15:30Now, she wasn't just an inconvenience.
15:33She was a massive threat that he couldn't simply kill.
15:36If Pearl died now,
15:37her death would trigger a council inquiry,
15:39unearthing everything he buried 16 years ago.
15:41So, there was only one move left for him.
15:44Make Pearl his luna and use the mate bond to permanently put the pack in his hands.
15:48Cold dread spread through me so fast it made my skin go numb.
15:51By marrying Silas.
15:53My mom hadn't stepped into a second chance.
15:55She had walked straight into a cage he had built for her years ago.
15:58She knew exactly what he was.
16:00So, why the hell had she still walked right into it?
16:03Mom, by marrying him?
16:04What exactly are you trying to do?
16:06She was quiet for a moment before finally answering.
16:09The truth about your grandfather's death is in the Silas' studio.
16:11My heart violently clenched.
16:13For 16 years,
16:14the official story claimed my grandfather was killed by rogue wolves during a pack patrol.
16:18Soon after,
16:19Silas,
16:20then the beta,
16:21stepped in to take control,
16:22while Pearl,
16:23the alpha's only daughter who wasn't even 18,
16:26mysteriously vanished.
16:27Everyone assumed she was dead,
16:29leaving only Silas behind to faithfully mourn and wait for his lost love.
16:33What a perfect,
16:34sickening story.
16:35But what if my grandfather's death was never an accident?
16:38Do you know the code?
16:40No, but I'm trying to find it.
16:42I'll help you.
16:43My chance came on the night of the full moon.
16:45By dusk,
16:46Silas had driven away from the estate,
16:48allowing me to slip down the hall and into his pitch black study.
16:51Not daring to turn on the main lights,
16:53I used the faint glow of my phone to feel my way across the room.
16:57Carefully lifting a painting behind his desk,
16:59I found exactly what she described,
17:01a heavy safe with a six-digit keypad lock.
17:03I stared at it.
17:04My mind racing.
17:06Six numbers.
17:07What would Silas use?
17:08A birthday?
17:09The date the pack was founded?
17:11Scanning the room for clues,
17:12my eyes landed on a small silver frame on his desk,
17:15a photo of his son,
17:16Marcus.
17:17Below the picture,
17:18an engraved plate read,
17:19Marcus.
17:20March 10th, 2008.
17:22It couldn't be that simple,
17:24could it?
17:25Praying to the moon goddess,
17:26my trembling fingers flew over the keypad.
17:37There wasn't much inside the safe,
17:39just a stack of documents,
17:40an envelope,
17:41and a flash drive.
17:42With no time to read through it all,
17:44I pulled out my phone and snapped photos of every page as fast as I could,
17:47only catching a few key lines.
17:49Alpha Succession Transfer Agreement.
17:51Pearl of the Blood Moon Pack,
17:53deemed mentally unfit,
17:54voluntarily relinquishes her claim to pack succession
17:56and grants full authority to Beta Silas to act on her behalf.
18:00I also found another file,
18:01my grandfather's autopsy report.
18:03Going completely still as I stared at the page,
18:06I read the official cause of death,
18:08killed after sustaining severe injuries during a pack patrol ambushed by rogues.
18:11But at the bottom of the last page,
18:13my blood went cold when I saw a handwritten note.
18:15The wound on the neck is inconsistent with rope claw marks.
18:19Suspected attack by a wolf from within the pack.
18:22Reported to the council.
18:23No action was taken.
18:25Then I noticed the envelope,
18:27yellowed with age and still sealed.
18:28On the front,
18:29my grandfather's shaky handwriting read,
18:32for Pearl.
18:32To be opened only if I die unexpectedly.
18:35Slipping the envelope inside my shirt to hide it.
18:38I put everything else back exactly where I found it.
18:41I closed the safe,
18:43hung the painting back up,
18:44left the study,
18:45and locked the door behind me.
18:47By the time I made it back to my room,
18:50my heart was pounding so hard it felt ready to burst.
18:53The photos on my phone and the envelope hidden in my clothes,
18:56this was the undeniable proof.
18:57The truth he'd buried for 16 years.
19:00I waited until midnight when the whole estate had gone completely still
19:03before getting up and heading to my mom's room.
19:05She was already waiting for me.
19:07I showed her the photos on my phone,
19:10one by one.
19:10She remained terrifyingly calm,
19:13but the moment she saw the autopsy report detailing my grandfather's true cause of death,
19:17her eyes flashed a violent,
19:18bloodthirsty red.
19:19This is from grandpa.
19:21He left it for you.
19:23As mom opened it,
19:24she found a single sheet of paper with only a few words,
19:27along with a small key.
19:28Daughter,
19:29if you are reading this,
19:30I am most likely already dead.
19:31The alpha seat of the blood moon pack belongs to you.
19:34Do not let anyone take it from you.
19:35In the basement of the old estate on the northern border,
19:38I left everything you need.
19:39The key is enclosed.
19:41Do not trust Simus,
19:43father.
19:43So,
19:44my grandfather had known the horrifying truth right before he died.
19:47Folding the letter,
19:48mom tucked it away with the key inside the lining of her pillowcase before looking at me.
19:52The time is coming.
19:53In the days that followed,
19:55everything looked perfectly normal on the surface.
19:57Mom kept playing the confused,
19:59harmless Luna,
20:00Silas kept playing the perfect mate,
20:02and I kept playing the quiet,
20:03obedient girl with no wolf.
20:05But behind the scenes,
20:06we had already started preparing.
20:08Slipping away,
20:09I secretly traveled to the old stone estate on the northern edge of the packed territory.
20:14Abandoned for over a decade,
20:15its grounds were heavily overgrown,
20:17the windows shattered,
20:18and the front door thick with cobwebs.
20:21Down in the dark basement,
20:22I found my grandfather's journals.
20:26Silamus has been acting strangely.
20:28He has been in repeated contact with outside packs.
20:31I've sent people to follow him and uncover what he's really after.
20:36Findings are alarming.
20:37Silas leaked our patrol routes to the Black Hollow pack in exchange for their support.
20:41What is he planning?
20:43I've decided to break off Pearl's engagement to Silas.
20:46He cannot be trusted.
20:48Tomorrow's council meeting,
20:49I will expose everything.
20:50That was exactly where the journal ended,
20:52because the very next day,
20:54my grandfather died in a tragic accident.
20:56Standing there in the ruins,
20:58I breathed hard for a long time before pulling out my phone and sending mom a text.
21:02I found it.
21:04Everything's here.
21:08Three nights later,
21:09Silas made his announcement in front of the entire pack.
21:12Next month marks the 112th anniversary of the Blood Moon pack.
21:16I've decided to host a grand celebration and invite every neighboring Alpha and their elders.
21:21Pearl, you're the Luna.
21:22I want you to host it.
21:24Of course.
21:27The second Silas disappeared into his study,
21:30I slipped into my mom's room.
21:32A celebration?
21:33He wants to sign a permanent transfer of Alpha Succession rights in front of everyone.
21:36Once that happens,
21:37the pack is his.
21:39Completely.
21:40Then what do we do?
21:41This is the day I've been waiting for.
21:43As the entire pack threw itself into preparing for the celebration over the next month,
21:47I secretly reached out to Lucas and told him everything.
21:50When I finished,
21:51Lucas walked to the window and stood with his back to me,
21:54his voice rumbling as low as thunder.
21:56On the day of the celebration,
21:57I'll bring my wolves.
21:59No.
22:00My mom doesn't want a raid.
22:01She wants a public reckoning.
22:04Can you help me with something?
22:06We're gonna need a way to show everyone the truth.
22:08Something big.
22:09Like a projector.
22:12Leave it to me.
22:13When the day of the celebration finally arrived,
22:15the Grand Hall was dressed in golden light,
22:17packed to the brim.
22:18All six neighboring alphas were in attendance,
22:21flanked by their betas and top warriors.
22:23While the council elders took their reserved seats in the front row,
22:26Lucas came too.
22:28Dressed in a sharp silver gray suit,
22:29he walked into the hall alone,
22:31his gaze sweeping across the room until it landed on me.
22:34For a split second,
22:35we held each other's eyes.
22:37He gave the slightest nod.
22:39Everything was in place.
22:41Staring at the document for a long moment,
22:43my mom finally lifted her head to face the crowd.
22:45Everyone, before I sign,
22:49there is something I want you all to see.
22:53Pearl, what are you doing?
22:55Without even looking at him,
22:57she reached into a hidden pocket in her dress
22:59and pulled out the envelope my grandfather had left behind.
23:01This is a handwritten letter left by the former alpha of the Blood Moon Pack,
23:06my father before his death.
23:08As a stunned murmur rippled through the hall,
23:10Pearl, you're not well.
23:11You're confused again.
23:12Your father died during a patrol after a rogue attack.
23:15That was the council's official ruling.
23:17Official ruling?
23:18Or the one you covered up?
23:22Turning to the crowd,
23:23she unfolded the letter and read it aloud,
23:25word for word.
23:26When she finished,
23:27the hall fell into a suffocating silence
23:29as every eye turned to Silas.
23:31Pearl,
23:32what exactly are you doing?
23:33Ignoring him entirely,
23:35my mom looked at me.
23:36I rose to my feet
23:37and walked straight to the projector set up in the center of the hall,
23:40bringing the massive screen to life.
23:42The first image appeared,
23:43a page from my grandfather's journal.
23:45Silas leaked our patrol routes
23:47to the Black Hollow Packing Exchange for their support.
23:49The second image flashed.
23:51I've decided to break off Pearl's engagement to Silas.
23:54He cannot be trusted.
23:56At tomorrow's council meeting,
23:58I will expose everything.
24:00Then came the third,
24:01the final page of the coroner's report,
24:03featuring a handwritten note scrawled across the bottom.
24:05The wound on the neck is inconsistent with rogue claw marks.
24:09Suspected attack by a wolf from within the pack.
24:12Reported to the council.
24:13No action was taken.
24:15The hall erupted as the alphas bent toward one another in hushed voices.
24:19The elders exchanged stunned looks,
24:20and gasps rippled through the pack.
24:22It's fake!
24:24You trust the word of a mad woman?
24:27Silas, I was never mad.
24:30I remember everything you did to me.
24:33You're lying.
24:34You...
24:35Lying?
24:36This came from your safe.
24:38It contains 16 years of bank transfers between you and Brutus.
24:42It holds your letters to the Black Hollow Pack,
24:44and the forged will you used to steal my father's authority.
24:48Every single document bears your signature,
24:50and your prints.
24:53Keeping the flash drive raised,
24:55she turned to the gathered alphas and elders,
24:57her voice ringing steady and clear.
24:59Sixteen years ago,
25:00when Silas was only a beta,
25:01he murdered my father,
25:03framed it as a rogue attack,
25:04and seized the alpha seat.
25:06He then handed me over to a rogue warlord,
25:07where I was held prisoner for sixteen years.
25:10Today, I call on the council to judge Simus under the justice of the moon goddess.
25:14Silas cracked.
25:15Not the way my mom had pretended to be mad,
25:18her madness had been a mask,
25:19a shield.
25:20This was a real,
25:21total collapse.
25:22His eyes flashed crimson as his alpha dominance exploded out of him,
25:26so wild and uncontrolled that a few weaker omegas instantly dropped to their knees,
25:30unable to withstand the crushing pressure.
25:32You've all been fooled!
25:34She's nothing but a wolfless lunatic!
25:40Wolfless?
25:42Everyone turned to see Lucas striding in,
25:44flanked by two warriors dragging a bruised and battered Brutus,
25:47shoving the robe to the center of the hall.
25:50This man is Brutus.
25:51Sixteen years ago,
25:52he was paid to abduct Pearl and keep her hidden.
25:54Talk.
25:55Who hired you?
25:58It was Simus.
26:02Silas paid me a fortune to take Pearl away and hide her somewhere no one would ever find her.
26:07Every few months,
26:08he came to check on her,
26:09bringing more money each time.
26:11He gave me a specially forged silver chain to suppress her wolf.
26:15He warned me it could never be allowed to awaken.
26:18If it did,
26:19we'd all be finished.
26:21The hall erupted again.
26:24Suppress her wolf?
26:25I thought she was wolfless.
26:27His face draining of all color,
26:29Silas shifted without warning,
26:31a massive black wolf materializing on the dais to launch straight at my mom.
26:36But everyone thought it was already too late.
26:38Just before Silas could reach her,
26:40a blinding white light burst through the hall.
26:43The glare forced my eyes shut.
26:44But when I finally opened them,
26:46I saw a wolf.
26:47Standing on the dais spades in a faint silver glow,
26:50a gigantic white wolf towered an entire head above Silas,
26:53her eyes glowing a deep,
26:54sacred gold that far surpassed any alpha.
26:56The entire hall fell dead silent before someone slowly dropped to their knees.
27:00White wolf,
27:01the moon goddess's bloodline.
27:03One by one,
27:04the rest of the pack fell to their knees in absolute reverence.
27:07Only Silas remained standing,
27:09though his legs were visibly shaking.
27:11The white wolf lowered her head and looked at him.
27:14She didn't snarl.
27:15She didn't strike.
27:16She only looked at him.
27:18It was judgment from above,
27:20and no one could defy it.
27:22Slowly sinking lower,
27:23Silas's front legs buckled.
27:25Then his hind legs finally gave way beneath him.
27:28Turning to face the kneeling crowd,
27:29the white wolf shifted back into human form.
27:32I am Pearl,
27:33daughter of the former alpha of the blood moon pack
27:35and heir to the white wolf bloodline.
27:38Today,
27:38I am taking back everything that belongs to me.
27:41Silas had no room left for excuses against the undeniable evidence.
27:45Accused of slaying an alpha,
27:46betraying the pack,
27:47forging records,
27:48and suppressing a sacred bloodline.
27:50He was stripped of all rank
27:51and permanently exiled under council law.
27:53As the warriors dragged Silas out of the hall,
27:55his eyes stayed locked on my mom.
27:57Pearl,
27:58you're ruthless.
27:59Looking down at him from the dais,
28:01my mom scoffed softly.
28:02Ruthless?
28:03You murdered my father,
28:04sold me to a rogue,
28:05and had me imprisoned for 16 years.
28:07My daughter was born on the dirt floor of a shack,
28:09growing up the bastard of a wolfless woman.
28:12Silas,
28:12do you really think I'm the ruthless one?
28:14When Silas said nothing,
28:15the warriors hauled him through the great doors of the hall
28:18and out into the cold night.
28:19The moment the heavy doors shut,
28:21my mom's rigid posture finally broke,
28:23her body swaying.
28:24Running to catch her,
28:25I wrapped my arms tightly around her trembling frame.
28:28Mom,
28:29it's over.
28:31Under the bright,
28:32full moon that night,
28:33the celebration turned into something else entirely.
28:35Pearl,
28:36only daughter of the blood moon pack's former alpha
28:38and heir to the white wolf bloodline,
28:40do you accept the moon goddess blessing
28:42and claim your place as alpha?
28:44I do.
28:47As a white gold crown was gently placed on her head.
28:53From this day,
28:54Pearl is the alpha of the blood moon pack.
28:57The moon goddess is our witness.
29:01Long after the ceremony ended,
29:03my mom and I sat together on the roof of the pack house.
29:06The huge,
29:07full moon cast a silver glow over the territory.
29:10It illuminated the distant mountains
29:12and the endless forest.
29:13Somewhere in the quiet night,
29:15a lone wolf howled.
29:18Mom?
29:19Hmm?
29:20What will our life be like now?
29:22From now on,
29:23we're going to live the life we deserve.
29:26And then,
29:27deep in my mind,
29:28the voice I had waited 16 long years to hear
29:31finally stirred,
29:31clearer and stronger than ever before.
29:33My wolf was finally waking up.
