00:00:02I married Alpha Evan out of gratitude.
00:00:05For three years, I guarded his pack.
00:00:08Yet Evan never loved me.
00:00:11He marked my sister before the whole pack.
00:00:14Everyone thought my sister was the pure-blood Luna.
00:00:17Evan blamed me for being infertile.
00:00:19You're a freak.
00:00:20Everyone mocked the golden-eyed freak,
00:00:23never knowing I was the true Luna heir.
00:00:25When the truth comes out,
00:00:27they will be shocked.
00:00:28Three years since I married Alpha Evan,
00:00:31Alpha Joseph's son.
00:00:32Alpha Joseph died shortly after I married Alpha Evan,
00:00:35and I kept my promise.
00:00:37As long as I remain within his territory,
00:00:39my Luna power automatically forms a protective barrier,
00:00:42warding off all invading rogue werewolves.
00:00:44I love Evan with all my heart
00:00:45and have given everything for him,
00:00:47yet I have never managed to melt his cold heart.
00:00:49His heart has always belonged to my younger sister, Selina.
00:00:53Even after Selina abandoned him cruelly long ago,
00:00:55he still clings to memories of her.
00:00:57For three years, I wrapped the entire pack in my Luna barrier,
00:01:00blocking every wave of rogue attacks.
00:01:03I loved him silently, yielded to him every night,
00:01:06and waited patiently for his mark.
00:01:08One day, after our intimacy,
00:01:10I cling to a faint hope.
00:01:12Evan, I've stayed by your side for three years.
00:01:15Won't you give me the mate mark I've always longed for?
00:01:18Three years and you still can't conceive an heir?
00:01:20You're nothing but a freak with golden eyes.
00:01:23How dare you even beg for my mark?
00:01:25A useless freak?
00:01:27Who do you think has been shielding your pack in silence all these years?
00:01:31Shield my pack, don't make me laugh.
00:01:33Your wolf power isn't even half as strong as Selina's.
00:01:37A cursed golden-eyed outpiece like you could never hold a candle to her.
00:01:40Stop deluding yourself.
00:01:41Evan leaves without looking back.
00:01:42He saw me as nothing more than a worthless golden-eyed freak,
00:01:46unworthy of his mark, unworthy of a place by his side.
00:01:50He assumed I was weak and decile,
00:01:52too dependent on this pack to ever leave.
00:01:55But his cold indifference killed every last bit of affection in my heart.
00:02:01Luna, Alpha Evan has instructed you to get ready.
00:02:04You are to attend the marking banquet the main mansion tonight.
00:02:07Here is the banquet gown prepared for you.
00:02:09A glimmer of fragile hope stirred in my heart.
00:02:11Perhaps he had only spoken harshly earlier,
00:02:14intending to give me a surprise to finally acknowledge me and bestow his mark upon me.
00:02:17When I stepped into the main hall,
00:02:21champagne roses bloomed everywhere,
00:02:24and a huge banner reading Welcome Pack hung on the wall.
00:02:28Then I saw him,
00:02:29my husband,
00:02:30my mate,
00:02:31my Alpha,
00:02:33holding someone else in his arm,
00:02:35my sister Selina.
00:02:38Let me make an announcement to everyone here.
00:02:41Today,
00:02:41I will place my exclusive mark upon my one and only mate,
00:02:46Selina.
00:02:47My heart didn't just break.
00:02:49It plunged to a frozen abyss,
00:02:51shattering into a million jagged spards of ice.
00:02:54If he is marking her,
00:02:56if he is claiming my sister in front of the world,
00:03:00then what am I?
00:03:04The second the words left his lips,
00:03:07I froze on the spot.
00:03:08The roses blooming all through the hall
00:03:10were the very romance I'd never dared to dream of.
00:03:13The grand Welcome Pack banner hanging overhead
00:03:16mocked every foolish hope I'd clung to only moments before.
00:03:19Evan led Selina forward to a stop.
00:03:22Her gown was cut in the exact same style as mine,
00:03:24yet hers was encrust with diamonds,
00:03:27far more lavish by comparison.
00:03:28Evan had humiliated me on purpose,
00:03:31dressing me in an identical design but of far poorer quality.
00:03:34Selina put on a soft, gentle front
00:03:36and spoke to me in fake sweetness.
00:03:38Dear sister,
00:03:39thank you for coming all this way
00:03:41to witness my marking ceremony.
00:03:43I kept my eyes locked on Evan,
00:03:45my voice shaking with held back emotion.
00:03:47Why her?
00:03:48I've sacrificed so much for you.
00:03:50I stayed loyal by your side for three whole years.
00:03:55What good are all your sacrifices?
00:03:56Those eerie eyes of yours repel me,
00:03:59and you can't even bear airs for the pack.
00:04:01You were never half as good as Selina,
00:04:03not then, not now.
00:04:05Evan lifted his hand,
00:04:06brushing it lightly along Selina's neck,
00:04:09then bowed his head to leave his claiming mark
00:04:11on her slowly and tenderly.
00:04:12When the mark was fully set,
00:04:14he slowly raised his eyes,
00:04:16scanning the bustling crowd
00:04:18before his gaze locked firmly on mine.
00:04:20Cheers and applause burst out across the hall at once,
00:04:23loud blessings ringing through the air,
00:04:24yet every sound sliced right through my heart
00:04:27like a sharp knife.
00:04:28One of the pack elders stepped up onto the dace.
00:04:30He swept his gaze over the crowd,
00:04:32his tone grave and agmatic.
00:04:33As many of you know,
00:04:34our pack has long kept a secret.
00:04:36Among us lives a she-wolf
00:04:37who carries the rare pure-blood Luna lineage.
00:04:40The question we all wonder is this,
00:04:42who could she be?
00:04:46The pack members broke into quiet murmurs,
00:04:48all guessing who the she-wolf
00:04:50with hidden pure-blood Luna lineage might be.
00:04:52Amid the buzzing whispers,
00:04:54Charlotte, Evan's mother,
00:04:55and the pack's reigning Luna
00:04:56rose slowly from her grand ornate throne
00:04:58atop the dace,
00:04:59carrying herself with unbridled arrogance and authority.
00:05:01There's no need for pointless speculation.
00:05:04It can only be Selina.
00:05:06She boasts exceptional wolf talent
00:05:08and immense innate power.
00:05:09I have always known she is the fated one.
00:05:12I never thought Joseph would act recklessly
00:05:15and force Evan into a marriage with Isabella.
00:05:17A smug smile tugged at Selina's lips.
00:05:19She gave a slight, polite bow.
00:05:22Thank you for your kind praise and recognition, Luna Charlotte.
00:05:25I stepped forward before I could stop myself,
00:05:28holding her gaze straight.
00:05:31What gives you such certainty that it must be Selina?
00:05:35Charlotte let out a mocking laugh,
00:05:36as if I'd told the most absurd joke imaginable.
00:05:38She raked her eyes over me coldly,
00:05:40full of contempt.
00:05:41Could it possibly be you?
00:05:43A freak with unnatural golden eyes,
00:05:46good for nothing.
00:05:47Do you truly think you are worthy of possessing
00:05:50the noble pureblood Luna lineage?
00:05:52Stop indulging in foolish fantasies.
00:05:55The second her words fell,
00:05:56the whole hall erupted in mocking laughter,
00:05:59thick with scorn and disdain.
00:06:01I turned to Evan,
00:06:02clinging to a faint hope that he would stand up for me,
00:06:05that he would grant me even the smallest bit of fairness.
00:06:07But Evan made no move to defend me at all.
00:06:11His expression turned icy instead,
00:06:13his voice laced with revulsion.
00:06:15You would do best to leave the ceremony of your own accord.
00:06:19Staying here will only bring you further shame
00:06:21and make a public fool of yourself.
00:06:25If you refuse to go,
00:06:27you may tend to the guests in the kitchen
00:06:28and keep to yourself quietly.
00:06:33Evan's cold,
00:06:35dismissive words cut straight through me,
00:06:37sharp and biting to the bone.
00:06:38Every eye in the room lingered only on Selina,
00:06:42bright with anticipation.
00:06:43It was as if everyone already took it for granted,
00:06:45that her so-called Luna divine power
00:06:48would lead Evan's pack to new prosperity.
00:06:51I'd borne endless humiliation for far too long,
00:06:54endured endless scorn and mockery from those around me.
00:06:57All the grief and resentment I'd kept locked inside
00:06:59finally spilled over.
00:07:01The true bearer of the pure-blood Luna Tinergy is not...
00:07:04Selina.
00:07:06It has always been me.
00:07:08The hall burst into mocking laughter once again.
00:07:11Charlotte doubled over, clutching her stomach,
00:07:13mocking me without restraint.
00:07:15Evan and Selina shared a disdainful smirk,
00:07:17dismissing my words as ridiculous ravings.
00:07:21Have you lost your senses?
00:07:25How dare a golden-eyed freak like you
00:07:28claim the pure-blood Luna lineage for yourself?
00:07:33Evan's brows drew tight,
00:07:35his tone sharp and unforgiving.
00:07:37Isabella,
00:07:38are you spouting nonsense out of jealousy
00:07:40now that I've marked Selina?
00:07:42Stop making a fool of yourself.
00:07:44No one in the room believed a word I said.
00:07:47Their geels pricked my heart like a thousand needles.
00:07:50Staring at their hypocritical, ugly faces,
00:07:52I only felt cold amusement
00:07:54and chose not to explain myself any further.
00:07:57When I fell quiet,
00:07:58the crowd quickly lost interest in me,
00:08:00turning their full attention back to Selina.
00:08:02Evan slipped an arm around her waist,
00:08:04his fingers brushing lightly
00:08:05over the fresh mark on her neck.
00:08:07From this day forward,
00:08:08Selina's Luna divine power
00:08:10will shield our pack
00:08:11and keep us safe and at peace.
00:08:16When she saw I still hadn't moved an inch,
00:08:19the smug look on Selina's face faded a little,
00:08:22replaced by impatience
00:08:23and haughty condescension in her tone.
00:08:26Dear sister,
00:08:27if you know what's best for yourself,
00:08:29gather your things and leave for home at once.
00:08:31Father is waiting for you there.
00:08:33Don't linger here and ruin everyone's celebration.
00:08:36I stood perfectly still,
00:08:37my expression unchanging,
00:08:39merely staring back at her with quiet indifference.
00:08:42I am keeping my oath to Alpha Joseph
00:08:44by remaining here to watch over Evan's pack.
00:08:47I will not leave
00:08:48until my three-year vow is fulfilled.
00:08:51The smile on Selina's face frozen instantly,
00:08:53then twisted into a cold, calculating smirk.
00:08:55She stepped half a step nearer and lowered her voice,
00:08:58letting only me hear her words.
00:09:00A vow?
00:09:01Sister, you're far too naive.
00:09:03Evan's pack has never needed your protection,
00:09:05nor will it ever accept a golden-eyed freak like you.
00:09:08Today, I'll make sure you're driven out of this place for good.
00:09:11The moment she finished speaking,
00:09:13she lurched backwards suddenly,
00:09:14her legs giving way as she crumpled heavily to the floor.
00:09:17She pressed her hands to the corners of her eyes
00:09:19and raised her voice sharply,
00:09:21letting it ring out across the entire hall.
00:09:23Sister, I know you're jealous of me,
00:09:25but you have no right to push me like this.
00:09:28I hadn't shifted a single step from where I stood.
00:09:30The cheering in the hall died away in an instant.
00:09:33Every pair of eyes fixed on us both
00:09:35filled with disdain, accusation,
00:09:37and the cold dislatchment of onlookers
00:09:39ready to watch a spectacle unfold.
00:09:41Evan rushed over at once,
00:09:42lifting Selina gently into his arms
00:09:44and holding her close in a protective embrace.
00:09:45He shot me an icy glare,
00:09:47rage blazing in his eyes.
00:09:50Isabella, you've crossed every line!
00:09:52From this day on,
00:09:53I formally disavow you and cast you out of the pack.
00:09:56You are forbidden from ever stepping foot
00:09:58on our territory for the rest of your life!
00:10:03I stayed rooted to the spot
00:10:04as Evan glared at me like he could kill with his eyes,
00:10:07the air between us turning icy cold.
00:10:10I didn't hurt Selina.
00:10:12She fell on her own.
00:10:14Evan leaned down to strope Selina's back gently,
00:10:16then looked up again,
00:10:18his rage so intense
00:10:19it felt like it could burn me to the ground.
00:10:21Do you really think I'd believe the lies
00:10:23of a golden-eyed freak like you?
00:10:25Selina just got my mark,
00:10:26and she's still weak.
00:10:27How dare you touch her?
00:10:29Charlotte stepped up beside Evan,
00:10:31her eyes dripping with even more disdain,
00:10:33her voice sharp enough to cut.
00:10:35Isabella, you still won't admit what you did.
00:10:38Your excuses only make you more disgusting.
00:10:41A filthy creature like you belong locked up in the dungeon.
00:10:44Evan pulled Selina behind him,
00:10:46unleashing his overwhelming alpha aura in a heartbeat.
00:10:50Icy pressure washing over the entire hall.
00:10:52He started the formal mate rejection right there in front of everyone.
00:10:55No trace of regret in his eyes,
00:10:57only pure coldness and contempt.
00:10:59I, Evan, reject you as my mate.
00:11:01I lifted my eyes to meet his gaze,
00:11:03my voice as calm as a frozen lake.
00:11:05I accept your rejection.
00:11:07The mate bond snapped suddenly,
00:11:08a searing, tearing pain shooting through every part of my body.
00:11:11The agony of the bond breaking hit first,
00:11:13and then tears slipped silently down my cheeks.
00:11:15The mate bond that had held us together for three years
00:11:17was breaking apart, fading little by little,
00:11:19each piece throbbing with a dull ache.
00:11:21But none of that pain came close to the cold emptiness in my chest.
00:11:25I curled my fingers tight,
00:11:26nails digging deep into my palms,
00:11:28forcing myself to bear the searing agony.
00:11:30You can't bear airs.
00:11:31The worst shame an alpha could ever face.
00:11:34Selina's nothing like you.
00:11:36She carries the pure-blood Luna Linerage,
00:11:38and only she's worthy of standing by my side,
00:11:41bearing my strongest pups,
00:11:43and leading the pack to greater glory.
00:11:47Selina leaned comfortably in Evan's arms,
00:11:50her eyes glinting with a taunting edge,
00:11:53as she stared at my disheveled state.
00:11:56Sister, why are you still standing here?
00:11:59If I were you, I'd hurry up and pack my things to leave.
00:12:02Don't linger here being a bother.
00:12:04Watching them throw jabs back and forth,
00:12:06their contempt plain as day,
00:12:08my mind wandered back to a memory from long ago,
00:12:10of being rescued.
00:12:11Out on the frozen plains, caught in wind and snow,
00:12:14I lay wounded and gave me a second chance.
00:12:17It was Joseph he told me I carried
00:12:19an extremely rare pure-blood Luna lineage.
00:12:21Later, on his deathbed,
00:12:23he held my hand tight,
00:12:25his gaze earnest,
00:12:26as he begged me to protect Evan and his pack
00:12:29with everything I had.
00:12:30Joseph, look at what's become of us.
00:12:32For three years, I've guarded your pack faithfully,
00:12:35warding off rogue attacks this entire time.
00:12:38I've even quietly nourished the pack lands
00:12:40with my Luna energy, making them stronger
00:12:42and more thriving with each passing day.
00:12:44Yet now, your own son chases me away.
00:12:46I've seen his true colors clearly.
00:12:48He's never been worth my protection.
00:12:50In that moment, the last bit of gratitude
00:12:53I'd felt for Joseph vanished completely.
00:12:55I'd kept my promise, and my debt was paid in full.
00:12:58Evan, after these three years, I owe you nothing,
00:13:01and I owe your pack nothing either.
00:13:04I only hope you never come to regret this day.
00:13:07Evan let out a scoff of disbelief,
00:13:09looking away from me in disgust,
00:13:11his tone again and dismissal.
00:13:13Regret?
00:13:14Cutting loose a burden like you
00:13:15is the smartest thing I've ever done.
00:13:17Now get out of my sight.
00:13:18Now.
00:13:19The mate bond shattered entirely,
00:13:21not a single thread of connection left between us.
00:13:23Just then, Evan's brows fronted sharply,
00:13:26his alpha aura tensing up in an instant.
00:13:28Many pack members looked up too,
00:13:29their expressions on edge.
00:13:30A faint yet thick rustling sound
00:13:32drifted from the edge of the manor,
00:13:34low and menacing.
00:13:34It was the sound of rogues closing in,
00:13:37hundreds of miles away and closing fast.
00:13:41Little did they know,
00:13:43with me reject and cast out,
00:13:45my all-encompassing Luna protection barrier
00:13:47had vanished, completely.
00:13:49The feral rogues I'd held back,
00:13:51kept at bay for three long years,
00:13:53were now charging straight for their borders in droves.
00:13:57And now that I'm gone,
00:13:58how will a weak alpha,
00:14:00paired with a fake mate who has no true Luna power at all,
00:14:04defend this pack against thousands of bloodthirsty rogues.
00:14:10Get to the pack perimeter now and check out that noise.
00:14:13Waste any time,
00:14:14and you'll pay with your lives.
00:14:17Yes, sir.
00:14:20You're scared, Evan.
00:14:22This is what happens when you reject me.
00:14:24The rogues are closing in.
00:14:25Spare me your empty threats and delusional garbage.
00:14:27I formerly banished you.
00:14:29Know your place and leave.
00:14:30My pack hasn't seen a rogue in years.
00:14:32Do you really think you can curse us?
00:14:34You're just spouting nonsense out of spite for being cast aside,
00:14:37trying to stir up trouble.
00:14:38Exactly.
00:14:39Isabella, you can't stand being thrown out,
00:14:41so you want to curse our pack?
00:14:42I see your true colors now.
00:14:44You're cruel to the core.
00:14:45If the rogues really come,
00:14:47you'll be the first one they grab.
00:14:48Let's see who's there to protect you then.
00:14:50Watching their hypocritical, colliding faces,
00:14:52I felt nothing but cold amusement.
00:14:54There was no point in wasting another word on them.
00:14:57I'd kept my promise,
00:14:58settled all scores.
00:14:59No reason to linger in this repulsive place any longer,
00:15:02putting up with their endless mockery and disdain.
00:15:04But the second I took a step to leave,
00:15:07Charlotte rushed over and cut me off.
00:15:08Hold it right there.
00:15:10You're not going anywhere.
00:15:13Isabella, Evans formally marked Selina,
00:15:15and the pack's true Luna is now in her rightful place.
00:15:18It's time you hand over that emblem.
00:15:19This sacred treasure, a symbol of the pack's glory,
00:15:22has no business resting on a freak like you.
00:15:25Exactly.
00:15:25Such a precious relic can't be tainted by someone unworthy.
00:15:28It belongs to me,
00:15:30the one who carries the pure-blood Luna lineage.
00:15:32Lady Luna Charlotte,
00:15:33I can feel the power in this emblem calling to me.
00:15:36Could it be,
00:15:37is the hidden pure-blood Luna lineage inside me finally waking up?
00:15:40Do you really believe that's what's happening, Selina?
00:15:43It has to be true.
00:15:45Only a noble, pure, silver-eyed werewolf
00:15:47is worthy of wearing this emblem.
00:15:49Not like some outscat who's clung to a sacred relic for years,
00:15:52can't even bear an heir,
00:15:53and wastes its power for nothing.
00:16:18Only those with true Luna blood can bear this emblem.
00:16:21A fake like you will never be worthy of it.
00:16:27Isabella, did you do this?
00:16:29Did you use witchcraft to control the alim and hurt me on purpose?
00:16:32You cruel bitch!
00:16:34You just can't stand to see me happy!
00:16:38Isabella, you've gone too far.
00:16:40Pushing her wasn't enough,
00:16:41so you stooped to dirty tricks with dark witchcraft to hurt her again?
00:16:45How low can you get?
00:16:47His voice held a desperate urgency I'd never heard from him before.
00:16:51His fingers brushed gently around the burning wound on Selina's chest,
00:16:55his touch impossibly tender and careful.
00:16:57The very tenderness I'd stayed by his side for three years,
00:17:00craving, yet never once getting.
00:17:02I'd never sink that low.
00:17:04I'd never degrade myself by using such vile garbage as witchcraft.
00:17:07I finally got it.
00:17:08It wasn't that he couldn't be tender,
00:17:10it was just that his tenderly was never meant for me.
00:17:12Why?
00:17:14You wore this emblem for three years and never had a single problem.
00:17:18Why does it hurt Selina the second she touches it?
00:17:21Could it be...
00:17:23Could you be the real pure-blood Luna after all?
00:17:29Everyone froze, their eyes turning straight to me,
00:17:32filled with shock, doubt, and utter disbelief.
00:17:35No, it can't be.
00:17:37Evan, she only grew used to the emblem's aura from wearing it for so long.
00:17:41She is never the true pure-blood Luna heir.
00:17:44She must have cast witchcraft on the emblem beforehand to hurt me on purpose.
00:17:50Evan, do not let your mind wander.
00:17:53It is all Isabella's doing.
00:17:54Out of jealousy towards Selina, she schemed in secret,
00:17:57making the emblem harm Selina to confuse everyone's judgment.
00:18:01This outcast has a vicious heart.
00:18:07Do you really think I'd believe some golden-eyed freak is the true Luna heir?
00:18:11Ridiculous.
00:18:12You're just a petty, useless outcast begging for a title you don't deserve.
00:18:15Now get out and don't dare tarnish them Selina with your presence.
00:18:17Stop loitering here and getting in the way.
00:18:19Leave the main packhouse at once and never show your face to us again.
00:18:22Listening to these absurdly absurd accusations,
00:18:25I finally let out a cold laugh.
00:18:27There was no warmth in it at all.
00:18:28Carry all the forbearance and heartbreak of these three years.
00:18:35I walked out of the main packhouse step by step.
00:18:38Three years of protection had only earned me betrayal, blame, and banishment.
00:18:43Even the last trace of hope in my heart was completely shattered.
00:18:46I pushed open the door to my home.
00:18:48Live room done was dent.
00:18:50And my father Marcus sat on the sofa with a cigarette between his fingers,
00:18:54undisguised mockery in his eyes.
00:18:56He lifted his gaze to me at the sound of footsteps.
00:18:59What happened?
00:19:00Driven back in disgrace after Evan broke your mate bond?
00:19:03I always knew a freak with strange eyes like you could never hold an alpha's heart,
00:19:07nor deserve the position of Luna.
00:19:09He took a good drag from his cigarette and exhaled the smoke slowly.
00:19:12Fortunately, I have two daughters.
00:19:14Selina is far more promising than you.
00:19:16Now that Evan has marked her,
00:19:17she will soon become the pack's Luna and bring me endless glory.
00:19:21Unlike you, born with those unlucky golden eyes,
00:19:24never able to succeed at anything since childhood.
00:19:26When I was young, Selina was always the only one seen on the pack training grounds.
00:19:30Father claimed silver eyes stood for pure lineage,
00:19:32and only Selina deserved formal training.
00:19:35I could only hide in the corner, watching them laugh and rejoice.
00:19:38I possessed the very power they valued, yet no one ever taught me how to wield it.
00:19:42With time, everyone came to see me as a powerless, useless nobody.
00:19:46Not even my father had ever truly looked at me with kindness.
00:19:49Marcus stood up and walked before me, looking down at me from above.
00:19:52There was no trace of fatherly affection in his eyes, only cold calculation.
00:19:56Now that Evan has cast you aside, you have no more use left.
00:19:59I raised you all these years.
00:20:01I cannot keep feeding you for nothing.
00:20:03I have sold you to a crude, low-rank werewolf from the black market.
00:20:07Though he is poor and unculturated,
00:20:09he is willing to borrow a large sump to buy you.
00:20:13Father, what are you saying?
00:20:15Sell me?
00:20:16I refuse.
00:20:17Refuse?
00:20:18What right do you have?
00:20:19You cannot even bear children.
00:20:21Not qualified enough to be a breeder.
00:20:24What good are you besides being sold off?
00:20:29Father, selling someone of my lineage will bring you retribution.
00:20:33Retribution?
00:20:34All I know is keeping you is a waste of food.
00:20:36Selling you brings real profit.
00:20:37Where is any retribution?
00:20:38I clenched my fists, my voice shaking with a screed and defiance as I met his gaze directly.
00:20:42Part of the money from selling you to buy Selina top-class gown.
00:20:44Dressed in fine luxury, Evan will love her even more.
00:20:47To buy a dress for Selina.
00:20:48To win her Evan's affection.
00:20:50My own father was willing to cast me straight into hell.
00:20:52He called out toward the door, and two tall pack members stepped inside.
00:20:55Seize her and lock her in a cage.
00:20:56Do not let her escape.
00:20:58Deliver her to the black market at dawn morrow.
00:20:59They grabbed my arms roughly, gripped so tight it felt as though they would crush my bones.
00:21:03I struggled in vain, and shock faded completely into icy despair in my heart.
00:21:07In the store room, a cold iron cage already waited.
00:21:10They shoved me inside and slammed the lock shut.
00:21:12The faint golden glow in my eyes grew brighter.
00:21:15I held the strength of a pure-blood Luna, yet I was treated as worthless cargo to be sold off.
00:21:20Never given the chance to unleash my power.
00:21:22Dawn had barely broken when footsteps echoed outside.
00:21:25I lifted my head to see Evan standing at the storage room entrance with Selina in his arms.
00:21:29Selina stepped forward to peer through the iron bars, her tone dripping with feigned sympathy and hypocrisy.
00:21:33Sister, I have no choice.
00:21:35It is father's decision.
00:21:36I tried to persuade him, but he would not listen.
00:21:39Just resign yourself to being a slave.
00:21:41I will serve well as the Pax Luna from now on.
00:21:43Solidify my position, and live up to everyone's expectations.
00:21:46Marrying you in the first place was nothing but my father's momentary foolishness.
00:21:50Foolish enough to treasure an outcast like you.
00:21:51Looking back, breaking our mate bond in time was the wisest choice I ever made.
00:21:55With that, he turned to Selina beside him and stroked her hair gently.
00:21:59The very tenderness I had longed for countless times.
00:22:02Yet in this moment, watching the scene unfold, I felt nothing at all.
00:22:06No sorrow, no resentment, only utter emptiness and calm.
00:22:10My three years of devotion had long worn away under his endless cruelty and prejudice.
00:22:14I even found it laughable that I had once held any hope for such a cold, selfish man.
00:22:19Evan lowered his head to brush her hair fondly and was about to speak,
00:22:22and a Pax member rushed inside in a panic, his voice trembling.
00:22:26Alpha Evan, disaster.
00:22:28Several Pax members have been found dead at the territory border,
00:22:30their bodies reeking of strong rogue scent.
00:22:32The tenderness on Evan's face vanished in an instant.
00:22:35His expression turned taut, filled with disbelief.
00:22:38What?
00:22:38Rogues?
00:22:39No rogues have ever come near our borders in three years.
00:22:42How could our people be killed all of a sudden?
00:22:44He frowned deeply, his gaze slowly falling on me as he looked me up and down.
00:22:48A flicker of doubt and disbelief crossed his eyes, his tone tentative.
00:22:52Could it be the reason no rogues drew near all these years was because of you?
00:22:57Was that the real reason my father Joseph insisted you stay by my side?
00:23:02The moment Selina heard this, she clung tightly to Evan's arm,
00:23:06eager to quiet his doubts and turn all blame onto me.
00:23:09Evan, do not entertain such foolish thoughts.
00:23:11How could it ever be her?
00:23:12She is nothing but a useless freak with strange eyes.
00:23:16What great power could she possibly possess?
00:23:18She must hold a grudge after you rejected her and father sold her away.
00:23:22She lured the rogues here on purpose to get revenge and destroy our pack.
00:23:26The doubt in his eyes faded completely, replaced by deeper loathing and rage.
00:23:30You are right.
00:23:31How could I ever believe an outcast holds such great power?
00:23:34It was you who lured the rogues here out of spite, getting our own people killed.
00:23:37His voice turned icy, and killing intact blazed in his eyes.
00:23:40I am heading to deal with the murders at the border now.
00:23:43I will settle this score with you when I return.
00:23:46Selling you to the black market is far too lenient.
00:23:49By rights, a vicious outwrit like you deserves hanging to comfort the souls of the fallen pack
00:23:53members.
00:23:54With that, he did not spare me another glance.
00:23:56Wrapping an arm around Selina's waist, he turned and left quickly, his footsteps fading away,
00:24:01leaving me alone in the cold iron cage.
00:24:03I curled up on the cage floor and stared toward the door.
00:24:05Evan, you will regret this.
00:24:07Before long, two pack members hurried over.
00:24:10They roughly unlocked the cage, grabbed my arms, and dragged me out of the storage room,
00:24:14shoving me into an old transport vehicle.
00:24:16After an endless ride, the vehicle finally came to a stop, and the door swung open,
00:24:20flooding the space with harsh sunlight.
00:24:22I was dragged out and thrown onto the ground.
00:24:24This place was the black market for low-rank werewolf trades, filled with females sold as
00:24:28breeders, outcasts auctioned off as slaves, every face etched with numbness and despair.
00:24:32I had no idea who would buy me next, nor what cruel fate awaited me.
00:24:38Two pack members pressed down hard on my shoulders, forcing me forward unsteadily.
00:24:42Soon they stopped and pushed me before a man.
00:24:45Sebastian, we have brought the girl to you.
00:24:47Marcus instructed us to hand her over personally.
00:24:49The man lifted his eyes slightly, saying nothing at first, only looking me over with a cold,
00:24:53emotionless expression.
00:24:54He wore rough, tattered clothes faded from wear with several tears here and there.
00:24:58Yet his frame was broad and powerful, his shoulders as solid as a wall.
00:25:01His features were sharp and stern, his jawline tight with shovel lining his jaw.
00:25:04A wild, unapproachable aura clung to him, giving him a down-broughten yet dominazing air.
00:25:09Rest assured, she is untouched.
00:25:12Only she failed to bear an air for Alpha Evan.
00:25:15Be quiet.
00:25:17His voice was deep and horsey with a rough edge, impatience clear in his tone.
00:25:21The pack member flinched in fright, bowed quickly and retreated.
00:25:25Only the two of us remained.
00:25:26He said nothing, simply looking down at me with an unnerving calm.
00:25:29No greed, no judgment, only unyielding dominance.
00:25:33Let go of me!
00:25:34Sebastian glanced down at my reddened wrist, loosening his grip slightly yet still refusing to release me.
00:25:40Save your words.
00:25:40Just come with me.
00:25:43Up close, I saw his eyes held unfathomable depth,
00:25:46hiding a quiet restraint and an innate nobility beneath his rough exterior.
00:25:50Even in ragged clothes covered in dust, his hidden sharp aroma could not be concealed.
00:25:54Somehow, the moment he touched my wrist, the werewolf's spiritual power inside me stirred restlessly.
00:26:01Heat spread through my veins to every corner of my body, making my breath quick up uncontrollably.
00:26:09The wolf inside me roared wildly, its cry echoing clearly and urgently in my heart.
00:26:14I pushed down the swirling confusion and flutter in my chest, and followed him silently forward, uncertain of what lay
00:26:20ahead.
00:26:20The car traveled for a long time before finally stopping outside a plain wooden cottage.
00:26:24It was not large, even simple in design, yet spotlessly clean.
00:26:28Even the weeds in the yard were neatly trimmed.
00:26:30A stark contrast to his rough, hawked around to my side and steadabled me gently.
00:26:33His touch was soft and restrained, nothing like his brusque manner earlier.
00:26:38I looked up at him, my confusion deepening.
00:26:40All that roughness and coldness had truly been nothing but a mask he wore at the black market.
00:26:45Beneath it lay unexpected gentleness, leaving me utterly unable to read him.
00:26:49I followed him inside.
00:26:51The furnishings were simple, only a wooden sofa, a dining table, and two closed doors.
00:26:55Yet everything was immaculate and orderly, the table polished bright enough to see one's reflection.
00:27:00It was clear the place was carefully tended.
00:27:02I stood frozen, thinking to myself, now that he has bought me from the black market, I am his property
00:27:08after all.
00:27:09I ought to learn to wait on him and tend to his needs.
00:27:13Let me take your coat for you.
00:27:15It is covered in dust.
00:27:17No need.
00:27:17The moment my fingertips brushed the hem of his coat, Sebastian stepped back intinctively, evading my touch.
00:27:24I pulled my hand back, a trace of disappointment settling in my heart, unable to understand why he treated me
00:27:30with such cold distance.
00:27:35I... I want to do something for you.
00:27:38I can't idle around all day.
00:27:40Sebastian glanced up at me, his tone cold and distant.
00:27:43There's nothing you need to do.
00:27:45Just stay by my side at night.
00:27:47I've already arranged a maid to look after you.
00:27:49My heart sank immediately.
00:27:51We were bound by blood, faded mates, yet he only saw me as someone to warm his bed and satisfy
00:27:55his desires.
00:27:56He treated me even worse than Evan ever did.
00:27:58Just then, a slim young girl stepped out of one of the rooms.
00:28:01She had sharp, unriggily eyes and her hair tied in a neat ponytail.
00:28:04The moment she laid eyes on me, her expression turned icy.
00:28:07She frowned openly, looking unimpressed, her voice edged with sarcasm.
00:28:10Brother, is this the girl you tried so hard to buy?
00:28:13She looks plain, skinny, and those golden eyes are a freak.
00:28:18What's so special about her that you'd go all out?
00:28:24Ella, watch your tone.
00:28:26Ella pouted, shot me a sharp glare, said nothing else, then turned and slammed her door shut, clearly resentful.
00:28:35At that moment, maid Clara walked over with a glass of water.
00:28:39She stopped as soon as she saw me and gave a respectful slight bow.
00:28:43Miss, my name is Clara.
00:28:47I'll be your maid and take care of your daily needs.
00:28:51For the next week, Sebastian left early and returned late.
00:28:55Every night, he would be intimate with me, possessive, yet always keeping an emotional distance.
00:29:01Could it be that in his eyes, I would never be worth genuine care, never worthy of being his rightful
00:29:07mate?
00:29:10Lately, my werewolf powers had been acting strange.
00:29:13My monthly spiritual cycle was long overdue.
00:29:17Sebastian remained secretive, never letting anyone know where he went during the day.
00:29:22His nightly closeness felt deliberately detached.
00:29:27The huge, wooden house always felt empty without him.
00:29:31Loneliness coiling around me like creeping vines.
00:29:34Restless, I turned on the PAC News channel.
00:29:37One news report made me race-felt made me freeze on the spot.
00:29:41Reporter.
00:29:42Marcus of the Blood Moon Tack died mysteriously at home last week.
00:29:45No visible wounds were found on his body, and the cause of death remains unknown.
00:29:49Alpha Evan has ordered a full investigation,
00:29:52with no new leads released so far.
00:29:55I stared at Marcus' photo on screen, tightening my grip on the remote.
00:29:59I felt a twinge of conflict inside, but mostly quiet relief.
00:30:04Father, you brought this on yourself.
00:30:07You sold me off like merchandise-y without a second thought,
00:30:10ignored me completely, and treated Selena and me nothing alike.
00:30:14What happened to you now is your own fault.
00:30:17No one else is to blame.
00:30:19Right after I spoke, a wave of sudden nausea rushed up my throat.
00:30:23I clamped a hand over my mouth and rushed to the bathroom, throwing up,
00:30:27feeling weak all over.
00:30:29Clara happened to bring fruit by and hurried over to steady me.
00:30:33Miss, are you alright?
00:30:35You look unwell.
00:30:36I'll go fetch a healer right away.
00:30:38Please hold on.
00:30:39I nodded weakly.
00:30:41Soon, Clara returned with a werewolf physician.
00:30:44There's no need to worry.
00:30:45You're perfectly healthy physically.
00:30:47The nausea, vomiting, and unstable spiritual energy are all symptoms of pregnancy.
00:30:52I stared at the physician in shock.
00:30:54The woman Evan mocked as Behrend, the one my own father dismissed as unfit to bear offspring,
00:31:00was now carrying a child.
00:31:03My mind was in chaos.
00:31:05I tried reaching Sebastian through the werewolf mind link, hoping to tell him quietly I was pregnant.
00:31:10But no matter how I sent my thoughts, there was only silence from his side.
00:31:14No reply at all.
00:31:18I was growing anxious when a messenger from Werewolf Academy arrived at the door, clearly flustered.
00:31:28Is Mr. Sebastian home?
00:31:30Miss Ella got into a fight at the youth training camp and hurt another student.
00:31:33The school is asking for a family member to come sort this out immediately.
00:31:36Sebastian was still nowhere to be found, and the mind link still wouldn't connect.
00:31:41I was the one he'd bought at the black market.
00:31:43With no one else available, I had no choice but to go in his place and settle the dispute at
00:31:47the academy.
00:31:51Werewolf Academy stood on neutral land, independent of any pack,
00:31:55where young werewolves from all clans came to train and study.
00:32:00I drove to the academy alone.
00:32:03In the distance, I saw Ella being lectured by a middle-aged woman whose back was turned to me.
00:32:09Ella and another boy were called into the dean's office.
00:32:12I walked over to speak to the woman.
00:32:14There's no need to embarrass a pup like this.
00:32:16We can talk this over calmly.
00:32:18When I got a clear look at her face, I realized it was Evan's aunt, Martha.
00:32:22Martha looked me up and down slowly, her gaze full of contempt.
00:32:25Her tone sharp and cutting.
00:32:27Well, look who decided to show up.
00:32:29Kicked out of your pack, sold to the black market by your own father,
00:32:32and now you live like a nobody.
00:32:36How dare you meddle in our family's business.
00:32:41I met her gaze without an ounce of timeliness.
00:32:44My life is none of your business.
00:32:46Even after being sold, I've re-stooped as low as you,
00:32:49lambing into your pack power, bullying the weak, and picking on a pup in public.
00:32:53Jack, Martha's face turned dark, firing back without remorse.
00:32:58Me bullying her?
00:32:59Ella started it.
00:33:01She had attacked my son Jack first.
00:33:03Am I allowed to discipline her?
00:33:06I knew very well Jack had always been arrogant and dominant in Evan's territory,
00:33:11always picking on the weaker students and never stayed out of trouble.
00:33:15Ella is quiet by nature and never picks fights for no reason.
00:33:19She only lashed out because your son mocked and provoked her first.
00:33:23Left lost for words by my reply,
00:33:26Martha flew into a rage,
00:33:27dropping all pretend of politeness and raising her hand to slap her.
00:33:33I blocked her instinctively.
00:33:35The moment our hands touched,
00:33:37a powerful and invisible divine force verged out of me,
00:33:41pinning her rigidly face, unable to move a muscle.
00:33:45I was stunned myself,
00:33:47never expecting to suddenly awaken such power.
00:33:50Deep inside me, my wolf spirit spoke.
00:33:53Mistress, it is your pregnancy.
00:33:56The life growing inside you has fully awakened your dormant ancient lunar bloodline.
00:34:00Your divine power will only grow stronger from here on.
00:34:05I stood there completely dumbfounded.
00:34:11Trapped by my power,
00:34:13Martha stared at me in utter disbelief.
00:34:15What?
00:34:17You've never had formal werewolf training.
00:34:20A discarded outcast sold at the black market.
00:34:23How can...
00:34:25How can you wield such powerful divine magic?
00:34:30Just then, a cold, familiar voice came from behind me.
00:34:34I turned slowly to see Evan walking toward me.
00:34:37Selina clung tightly to his side,
00:34:39dressed in an elegant gown with perfect makeup,
00:34:41her eyes glinting with quiet amusement at the scene.
00:34:44Evan fixed me with a cold, stern look.
00:34:47Isabella?
00:34:49You've grown far too bold.
00:34:51How dare you lay hands on my aunt?
00:34:53You've lost all sense of manners and decency.
00:34:57Our mate bond was broken long ago.
00:34:59We have nothing left between us.
00:35:01Martha has always treated me with malice and scorn,
00:35:04and now she bullies a pup unjustly.
00:35:06I owe her no respect whatsoever.
00:35:07Evan scanned my plain, simple clothes from head to toe,
00:35:11his eyes filled with disdain.
00:35:13After being sold to the black market,
00:35:15you've become crude and reckless.
00:35:17Your manners are gone, you're dressed plain and shabby.
00:35:20Not a trace of your old poise remains.
00:35:22Beside him, Selina put on a soft, gentle act,
00:35:26pretending to mediate while secretly stirring up trouble.
00:35:29Evan, don't let this upset you.
00:35:31Sister has fallen so far now.
00:35:33Her judgment and grace are long gone.
00:35:36There's no need to argue with her.
00:35:37Evan frowned, stepping aside to avoid the crowd's gaze,
00:35:40then spoke to me in a low voice.
00:35:41Come with me, I need to talk to you privately.
00:35:45I followed him aside, growing impatient,
00:35:47wondering what he wanted now.
00:35:49Instead of answering right away,
00:35:51he leaned in and breathed in the scent of my hair.
00:35:53I've missed you a lot lately.
00:35:55His eyes lingered greedily on my neck
00:35:57as his hand drifted restlessly to my waist.
00:36:00I turned my head away to avoid him.
00:36:02Isabella, I miss being with you.
00:36:04Being with Selina, it's nothing compared to you.
00:36:07He almost sounded wronged, as if I owed him something.
00:36:10Then his tone turned cold as he mentioned the man who'd bought me,
00:36:12seething with jealousy at the thought of me belonging to a rough nobody.
00:36:15He stepped closer and lowered his voice.
00:36:17Come back and be my mistress.
00:36:18I'll give you mansions, jewels, silk gowns.
00:36:21Everything Selina has, you'll have.
00:36:23And more.
00:36:24I looked at his desperate, prideful act and suddenly laughed.
00:36:29Even if he had nothing at all,
00:36:31he's still better than you.
00:36:33That one sentence made his face burn red,
00:36:35as if I'd slapped him in public.
00:36:37I'd struck his fragile ego, thin as eggshell.
00:36:41Just then, Selina walked over from a distance,
00:36:43eyeing us suspiciously and asking what we were talking about.
00:36:47I shook my head and said nothing,
00:36:49but as several wereswolves walked past,
00:36:51I deliberately raised my voice.
00:36:52There's something everyone should know.
00:36:54Evan is infertile.
00:36:59Evan spun around, glaring at me sharply.
00:37:02His wolf pupil slitted with rage and embarrassment,
00:37:04his face draining of color.
00:37:06The passing werewolves stopped and watched,
00:37:08whispering and slurkering,
00:37:09their mocking eyes burning into Evan.
00:37:12Selina froze on the spot,
00:37:13her smile fading instantly.
00:37:15She stared at Evan in shock and doubt,
00:37:18studying his flustered expression closely.
00:37:21I stayed calm and composed,
00:37:23gently placing one hand over my stomach,
00:37:25my tone steady and unyielding.
00:37:28I'm pregnant.
00:37:30You're delirious.
00:37:32There's no way you could be pregnant!
00:37:33I looked on indifferently,
00:37:35no longer bothering to explain myself.
00:37:37Believe it or not,
00:37:39I don't owe anyone an explanation.
00:37:41Martha stepped forward at once with a sneer.
00:37:44Pregnant or not,
00:37:45it's still just some low-class,
00:37:48werewolf's bastard child.
00:37:50Selina quickly agreed,
00:37:51her tone sharp and full of scorn.
00:37:55Exactly.
00:37:56Nothing to be proud of,
00:37:57she reeks of common werewolf aura.
00:38:02I leaned forward slightly,
00:38:04breathing in subtly when near the three of them,
00:38:06my voice thick with mockery and certainty.
00:38:08No matter my place now,
00:38:09I'm still better than the three of you.
00:38:11You all reek of rogue stench.
00:38:13Your pack is already overrun by rogue raids,
00:38:16barely holding itself together,
00:38:18yet you still come to this neutral school
00:38:19to bully others and stir up trouble.
00:38:21My words hit Evan right where it hurt.
00:38:25I'd seen pack news long before now,
00:38:28reporting his territory plagued by constant rogue attacks,
00:38:31leaving him stressed and sleepless.
00:38:35Evan paled instantly,
00:38:37his anger mixing with panic,
00:38:39as he snapped back harshly.
00:38:43That's a lie!
00:38:45Don't spread rumors!
00:38:47My pack is perfectly safe.
00:38:53And no rogue troubles at all.
00:38:58Martha and Selina also paled,
00:39:00avoiding eye contact nervously,
00:39:01subtly suppressing their era
00:39:03to hide the rogue scent clinging to them.
00:39:05The onlooking werewolves began murmuring,
00:39:06looking at the three with obvious suspicion.
00:39:08Just then,
00:39:09the Academy's Elder Dean hurried over
00:39:11with a stern expression,
00:39:12raising a hand to quiet the crowd.
00:39:14That's enough!
00:39:14This is neutral Academy ground.
00:39:16No quarreling or disruption
00:39:18of student training will be tolerated.
00:39:20Ella and Jack were led out by school staff.
00:39:23Jack had faint scratch marks on his face.
00:39:26Ella kept her head down,
00:39:27her stubborn spirit clear as ever.
00:39:29I turned to Ella,
00:39:31softening my tone as I asked gently,
00:39:33Ella,
00:39:34what really made you fight Jack?
00:39:38I looked at Ella,
00:39:39her eyes red yet still forcing herself to stay strong,
00:39:43stubborn by nature.
00:39:44She rarely showed vulnerability,
00:39:45but now she could not hide her hurt,
00:39:48biting her lip to hold back her tears.
00:39:50Ella lifted her head sharply,
00:39:52her voice trembling yet firm.
00:39:55He started it first!
00:39:58Jack mocked me in front of everyone,
00:40:00said I didn't belong in the training camp,
00:40:02and called Brother Sebastian a nobody with no real power!
00:40:06Jack looked utterly unconvinced
00:40:07and fired back at once.
00:40:11It's the truth.
00:40:14I didn't make any of it up.
00:40:16Ella grew emotional,
00:40:17raising her voice.
00:40:19He even tugged at my wolf fur
00:40:20and shoved me against the wall!
00:40:23He pointed right at my face
00:40:24and called Sister a golden-eyed freak
00:40:26who couldn't bear pups,
00:40:27said you deserve being sold away!
00:40:31I held back again and again,
00:40:33but he just kept pushing me!
00:40:35I had no choice but to fight back!
00:40:37I stood frozen,
00:40:38my heart aching with emotion.
00:40:40I'd always thought I was nothing more than someone Sebastian had bought,
00:40:42that there was always a distance between Ella and me,
00:40:45that she'd kept her cold reserve towards me.
00:40:47I never imagined she would stand up for me so fiercely
00:40:49when others slandered and looked down on me.
00:40:51My gaze fell on her arms,
00:40:53marked with faint scratch wounds.
00:40:55A few tufts of wolf fur had been torn from her neck,
00:40:58and there was a faint bruise at the corner of her mouth.
00:41:02She looked worn and utterly heartbreaking.
00:41:08In that moment,
00:41:09memories of being wronged, mocked, and bullied
00:41:11relentlessly crashed over me like a tide,
00:41:13shunned as a freak by Evan's pack,
00:41:15humiliated publicly by Selina,
00:41:16sold off like merchenty by my own father,
00:41:18branded barren by everyone around me.
00:41:20All the suppressed grief and resentment welled up inside,
00:41:22flaring into a fierce urge to protect Ella.
00:41:24I reached out and gently stroked her hair,
00:41:26calming the storm of emotion in my chest,
00:41:29then turned to face Jack,
00:41:31Martha, and the rest of them.
00:41:34Jack insulted others openly
00:41:36and resorted to violence first.
00:41:39Martha turns a blind eye to her son's wrongnings
00:41:41and enables his cruelty.
00:41:43Your own pack is overrun by rogues
00:41:46and barely holding on,
00:41:47yet you still find time to bully a pup
00:41:50and insult others.
00:41:52Isn't that both ridiculous and pitiful?
00:41:55The moment my words landed,
00:41:56Martha flew into a rage.
00:41:57She stepped forward abruptly,
00:41:58japping a finger straight at me
00:42:00and snapping sharply.
00:42:01Who do you think you are?
00:42:02How dare you judge us?
00:42:04My birth clan is the blood moon pack.
00:42:06My in-law's the silver flang pack.
00:42:07Say another word,
00:42:09and I'll have these two great packs
00:42:11pressure this academy.
00:42:13Not only will Ella be severely punished,
00:42:16I'll make you apologize to us mother and son
00:42:19in front of everyone.
00:42:22The elder in charge of the training camp hurried over,
00:42:24followed by several guards,
00:42:25his area commanding and unhealed.
00:42:27Silence, all of you.
00:42:28Jack provoked, insulted, and attacked first.
00:42:30He must apologize sincerely to Ella and Isabella.
00:42:32Martha will no longer be eladdle in student affairs
00:42:34for turning a blind eye to right and wrong
00:42:35and abusing her status.
00:42:36Anyone else who stirs up trouble
00:42:37will be expelled from the academy permanently,
00:42:39never to be admitted again.
00:42:41He then turned to me,
00:42:42his tone softening noticeably.
00:42:44Lyman Queen, rest assured,
00:42:45this is neutral ground.
00:42:47No one shall harm you or Ella.
00:42:50You need not fear for the one
00:42:51watching over you from the shadows.
00:42:53He will always keep you safe.
00:42:58I stared at him in utter disbelief.
00:43:01Elder, you must have mistaken me for someone else.
00:43:04I'm no Lion Queen.
00:43:06I'm just, just an ordinary werewolf.
00:43:08I could never deserve such a title.
00:43:10The elder shook his head faintly,
00:43:12his eyes deep and cryptic,
00:43:13gesturing for me not to press further.
00:43:15This is not the time to speak of it.
00:43:17The matter runs far deeper than you know.
00:43:19When the time comes,
00:43:20all will be revealed.
00:43:22For now, let us resolve what lies before us.
00:43:29At that, Evan, Martha, and Selina
00:43:32burst out in mocking laughter.
00:43:33Martha even clutched her stomach dramatically,
00:43:37sneering openly as she pointed at me.
00:43:39Elder, have you lost your wits?
00:43:42Or has this freak bewitched you somehow?
00:43:44Her?
00:43:45A lowly werewolf sold at the black market
00:43:47who can't even protect herself?
00:43:49The legendary Lycan Queen?
00:43:58What a ridiculous joke!
00:44:00Selina leaned close to Evan,
00:44:02her eyes filled with contempt.
00:44:04She raised her voice deliberately,
00:44:05making sure every watching werewolf
00:44:07could hear clearly.
00:44:09Exactly, Elder.
00:44:10The Lycan Queen is a noble existence
00:44:11who rules over all wolf clans.
00:44:13She's nothing but an outcast abandoned by her pack,
00:44:15mocked for being unable to bear young.
00:44:19How can you place such an exalt title
00:44:22on someone like her?
00:44:23The Elder's expression darkened at once,
00:44:25his imposing aura sweeping over the square.
00:44:28His eyes turned cold and sharp as he thundered,
00:44:31silencing every onlooker instantly.
00:44:36Hold your tongues!
00:44:38This neutral training camp is no place
00:44:40for your reckless arrogance.
00:44:41Speak ill of Isabella one more time,
00:44:43mock her again,
00:44:44and I will have all of you detained.
00:44:46Strip part of your wolf power,
00:44:48expels you from the camp,
00:44:49and bar you from ever returning.
00:44:51Martha tried to argue back,
00:44:52but froze under the Elder's icy stare.
00:44:56The words died in her throat.
00:44:59Furious as she was,
00:45:00she dared not act out any further.
00:45:02The Elder turned to Jack,
00:45:04who still looked stubbornly defiant.
00:45:06Jack, apologize to Ella and Isabella at once.
00:45:09Speak with genuine remorse and admit your faults.
00:45:12Refuse, and you will be expelled today.
00:45:14I will notify your pack,
00:45:16and you will never be allowed entry
00:45:17into any werewolf training camp again.
00:45:19Jack clenched his fists tightly,
00:45:21his face burninged with stubbornness and resentment.
00:45:24He glared fiercely at Ella,
00:45:26yet trembled under the Elder's overwhelming pressure,
00:45:28and finally lowered his head.
00:45:34I'm sorry.
00:45:38I shouldn't have called you a half-blood stray,
00:45:41insulted your brother,
00:45:43tugged your wolf fur,
00:45:44or pushed you against the wall.
00:45:46I apologize.
00:45:48Ella pressed her lips together and said nothing,
00:45:51only nodded faintly,
00:45:52the hurt in her eyes easing a little.
00:45:57Let's go.
00:45:59I'll settle this score with you two,
00:46:00sooner or later.
00:46:02Martha shook with rage.
00:46:03She shot a venomous glare at me and Ella,
00:46:05then grabbed Jack's arm roughly,
00:46:06her tone seeking with malice.
00:46:08Evan looked at me with complicated eyes,
00:46:10resentment, confusion,
00:46:11and a flicker of hidden unease.
00:46:12He shot the Elder a long, wary glance,
00:46:14yet dared not say another word.
00:46:15He turned and left the camp square
00:46:16with Martha and Selina,
00:46:18looking both furious and defeated.
00:46:19Before leaving,
00:46:20Selina glanced back at me
00:46:21with a sharp, hateful stare.
00:46:24I watched them leave,
00:46:26then turned back to the Elder,
00:46:28still utterly confused,
00:46:30my tone urgent.
00:46:32Elder,
00:46:33why do you keep calling me Lycan Queen?
00:46:35I'm not the person you think I am.
00:46:37My mate is only an ordinary werewolf.
00:46:40How could I ever bear such a title?
00:46:42The Elder shook his head slowly,
00:46:43his gaze deep with untold secrets.
00:46:45He motioned for me to calm myself,
00:46:47his tone cryptic yet laced with quiet warmth.
00:46:50This matter is of great consequence
00:46:51and touches countless threads of fate.
00:46:53I cannot reveal a single detail yet.
00:46:56Only remember this.
00:46:57Someone has been protecting you in the shadows.
00:47:00No matter what dangers lie ahead,
00:47:02you have nothing to fear.
00:47:03I turned to Ella beside me,
00:47:05wondering if she knew anything of this.
00:47:08Ella, does any of this make sense to you?
00:47:10Why would the Elder call me that?
00:47:12Ella smiled innocently and shook her head,
00:47:14then skipped off into the distance,
00:47:16her voice light and flaky.
00:47:17No idea, sister.
00:47:18You'll have to figure it out yourself!
00:47:20Back home, I pushed open the door
00:47:21to find Sebastian sitting quietly
00:47:23on the living room sofa,
00:47:24holding a Wolf Clan medicinal herb
00:47:25between his fingers, waiting for us.
00:47:27You're back.
00:47:29Did anything else happen at the camp?
00:47:31Has Ella been wronged again?
00:47:33Ella shook her head and walked over to sit beside him,
00:47:35leaning softly against his arm.
00:47:39I'm fine, Brother Sebastian.
00:47:41The Elder stood up for us,
00:47:42and Jack apologized.
00:47:44I stepped in front of Sebastian,
00:47:46my expression earnest and searching,
00:47:48unable to hold back the questions
00:47:50weighing on my mind any longer.
00:47:54Sebastian, I need to ask you something.
00:47:56Today at the training camp,
00:47:57the Elder called me like on Queen
00:47:58and said someone has been guarding me secretly.
00:48:00Do you know what this is all about?
00:48:02And you?
00:48:03What is your true identity?
00:48:04You've always hidden the truth from me on purpose.
00:48:06Sebastian's fingers stilled.
00:48:08He lifted his eyes to meet mine,
00:48:09his gaze flickering as he deliberately avoided
00:48:11my direct stare.
00:48:14Bella, some things aren't meant to be told yet.
00:48:17I can promise you this.
00:48:18I will never harm you or Ellie,
00:48:20and I will always protect you.
00:48:23All you need to do is trust me.
00:48:25I watched him evade my gaze,
00:48:27my confusion deepening by the second.
00:48:29A quiet hurt settled in my heart.
00:48:31The Elder wouldn't speak,
00:48:32and Sebastian chose to hide the truth too.
00:48:34It felt as if everyone held secrets about me,
00:48:37leaving me in the dark like a fool.
00:48:39I fell silent for a moment,
00:48:41my hand unconsciously drifting to my stomach,
00:48:43where a tiny life was growing,
00:48:45the only thing I clung to now.
00:48:47I lifted my eyes to him,
00:48:48my expression solemn.
00:48:51Sebastian, I'm pregnant.
00:48:53Sebastian froze visibly.
00:48:54He set down the herb slowly,
00:48:57a faint soft smile crossing his face,
00:48:59the corners of his mouth lifting.
00:49:02He was clearly happy.
00:49:04Yet his joy was far too restrained,
00:49:06too calm.
00:49:07There was none of the wild delight I'd hoped for.
00:49:10No flurry of worried questions,
00:49:12no tender touch.
00:49:13The glimmer of joy in his eyes faded almost at once,
00:49:17settling back into his usual quiet reserve.
00:49:21My heart sank heavily in that instant.
00:49:24Disappointment and uneases washed over me like a cold tide,
00:49:27swallowing me whole.
00:49:29I couldn't help but wonder,
00:49:31did he not want this pup at all?
00:49:33Was I, and the life inside me,
00:49:35nothing more than a burden to him?
00:49:36I thought of being sold by my own father,
00:49:39abandoned by Evan.
00:49:40Of all the uncertainty I'd endured,
00:49:42my unease grew stronger
00:49:44until my fingers began to tremble faintly.
00:49:46I dared not look Sebastian in the eye,
00:49:48afraid of catching even a trace of distaste
00:49:50or impatience in his expression.
00:49:52I pushed down the ache and hurt in my chest,
00:49:55forcing a faint calm smile and nodding.
00:49:57I understand.
00:49:59You don't have to feel pressured.
00:50:00Night fell,
00:50:01and silence settled over everything.
00:50:03Moonlight spilled through the window onto the floor.
00:50:05I sat alone on the edge of the bed,
00:50:07gently resting a hand over my stomach.
00:50:09The weight of disappointment and unease grew heavier.
00:50:12More and more,
00:50:13I felt as though both I and my pup
00:50:14were nothing but a burden to Sebastian.
00:50:17Staying here would only be an annoyance,
00:50:18only wear him down further.
00:50:20Better to leave now.
00:50:22Go somewhere no one knows me.
00:50:24Give birth quietly.
00:50:26Raise my pup alone.
00:50:28And never be a chain holding anyone back again.
00:50:31With my mind made up,
00:50:32I rose quietly,
00:50:33moving without a sound.
00:50:35I opened my luggage
00:50:35and began packing silently.
00:50:37A few simple clothes,
00:50:38the wolf-tooth pendant Sebastian
00:50:40had given Milango to ward off danger,
00:50:42some dried rations I'd saved.
00:50:43I folded everything carefully into a small bundle.
00:50:46Once packed,
00:50:47I walked to Ella's bedside
00:50:48and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead,
00:50:50my heart heavy with sorrow yet firm with resolve.
00:50:53Ella, I'm sorry.
00:50:54Sister can't stay with you anymore.
00:50:56Stay safe with Brother Sebastian
00:50:57and getting hurt the way I did.
00:50:58I wiped the tears from my eyes,
00:51:00slung the bundle over my shoulder,
00:51:01and closed the door softly.
00:51:04Under the cover of Deep Night,
00:51:06I stepped slowly out of Sebastian's home.
00:51:11I walked into the dark forest with my bundle.
00:51:14I'd barely taken a few steps
00:51:15when hurried footsteps sounded behind me.
00:51:17A shadow darted forward in pursuit,
00:51:19and his familiar scent wrapped around me in an instant.
00:51:22It was Sebastian.
00:51:23Bella, where are you going?
00:51:25It's the middle of the night,
00:51:26carrying a bundle.
00:51:28Are you leaving me?
00:51:29I pulled my hand away sharply,
00:51:31my eyes red-brimmed,
00:51:33tone stubborn and hurt,
00:51:35forcing myself to sound cold.
00:51:37Where I go is none of your business.
00:51:41Sebastian,
00:51:43don't trouble yourself over me,
00:51:44and don't feel ob-gayed.
00:51:47How can it not be my business?
00:51:49Bella, you are my mate.
00:51:52The pup you carry is my flesh and blood.
00:51:54Wherever you go, I go.
00:51:57How can you say this has nothing to do with me?
00:52:00His words shattered every wall I've put up.
00:52:02Long-suppressed grief and hurt burst free.
00:52:04I pound against his chest,
00:52:06struggling to break away.
00:52:07Mate, do you still remember I'm your mate?
00:52:10Sebastian, look at yourself.
00:52:12I told you I was pregnant,
00:52:13and this is how you react?
00:52:14No joy, no concern,
00:52:16not a single sincere word of care.
00:52:18You don't care about this pup at all,
00:52:20and you've never truly cared about me.
00:52:21I stopped struggling and stared straight into his eyes,
00:52:24tears streaming down my cheeks.
00:52:26My tone laced with self-mockery and despair,
00:52:28every word cutting deep into us both.
00:52:31You were just a buyer at the black market,
00:52:32and I was nothing more than a slave you purchased.
00:52:36Your kindness, your gentleness,
00:52:38only fleeting interest,
00:52:40only because I still have use to you.
00:52:42Isn't that the truth?
00:52:44You've never truly cared about me.
00:52:46Sebastian stuffened completely,
00:52:48holding me tighter.
00:52:49He gripped my shoulders,
00:52:51forcing me to meet his glaze.
00:52:53Bella, don't say that.
00:52:54I have never seen you as a slave,
00:52:57not for a single moment.
00:52:58I bought you for a reason.
00:53:01The forest seemed to darken all at once.
00:53:04A blood-red moon rose slowly over the horizon,
00:53:08its crimson glow spilling across the entire woods.
00:53:11Sebastian lifted his head
00:53:12and stared quietly at the blood moon,
00:53:15his expression solemn and grave.
00:53:17The wolf clan has an ancient fate law.
00:53:19Only when the blood moon rises
00:53:21will the royal seal be fully broken.
00:53:23No more need for pretense,
00:53:25no more hiding.
00:53:27The time has finally come.
00:53:29I stared at the eerie crimson moon,
00:53:31my heart tightening inexplicably,
00:53:33lost and stunned,
00:53:35waiting for him to go on.
00:53:37I was never an ordinary low-rank werewolf.
00:53:40I am the rightful heir to the Lycan throne.
00:53:44My elder brother plotted against me in secret to seize power.
00:53:48To survive, I had to hide my royal identity,
00:53:51suppress my true strength,
00:53:52lie low and bide my time,
00:53:55evading my enemies while gathering power to take back what was mine.
00:53:58His tone softened,
00:54:00laced with gentle remembrance.
00:54:01I've known you for a very long time.
00:54:03Years ago, on the frozen ice plains,
00:54:05I saw you ignoring the bitter cold to feed stray wolf pups gently.
00:54:09In that moment, I was already drawn to you.
00:54:10I've watched over you silently ever since,
00:54:12following every twist of your fate.
00:54:14His voice turned tender with sorrow as he spoke of the past.
00:54:17When I learned Evan had cast you aside cruelly,
00:54:20and your own father sold you off like nothing more than a breeder,
00:54:23I acted at once and bought you from Marcus.
00:54:26This was never a cold transaction.
00:54:29It was protection I planned long ago.
00:54:31A chance to save you.
00:54:35Sebastian let out a quiet sigh,
00:54:36his eyes filled with lingering helplessness and restraint.
00:54:39I kept my distance and acted cold towards you before
00:54:41because I'd long sensed you are a born pureblood Luna.
00:54:44Back then I was trapped in royal turmoil,
00:54:45surrounded by enemies, barely able to protect myself.
00:54:48I fear dragging you into danger,
00:54:49and I refuse to let someone as noble and pure as you
00:54:52stay hidden beside a fallen, disguised me.
00:54:54He lifted his gaze to the blood moon hanging high in the sky.
00:54:58His aura steady and regal.
00:55:00His expression calm with certainty.
00:55:02Now the blood moon has risen.
00:55:04Fate has fallen into place.
00:55:05I have crushed my brother's schemes,
00:55:06quelled the internal turtle,
00:55:07and reclaimed my rightful throne at last.
00:55:09I have officially ascended as the new Lycan king.
00:55:11He reached out and took my hand gently.
00:55:13His palm warm and firm.
00:55:15His gaze locked steadily on mine.
00:55:18Sincere and earnest.
00:55:19Isabella, of course I care about our child.
00:55:20I have cared all along.
00:55:21I've waited far too long for this day.
00:55:23Once I could only guard you from the shadows.
00:55:25Now I hold the throne,
00:55:25and I have the power to shield you and our pup for a lifetime in peace.
00:55:28I wish to mark you properly,
00:55:29claim you as my one and only mate,
00:55:30and crown you queen of the Lycan clan.
00:55:32From this day forward,
00:55:32no one will ever dare hurt you again.
00:55:34I stared at the raw, unhovered affection and resolve in his eyes.
00:55:37All the grief, unease,
00:55:38and doubt I'd carried these days melted away in an instant.
00:55:40Emotion welled up inside me,
00:55:42and warm tears slipped slowly down my cheeks.
00:55:44I looked at him and nodded softly,
00:55:45knowing he meant to mark me for life.
00:55:49Night hung thick and dark.
00:55:50A blood-red moon hung high over the sky,
00:55:52bathing the entire forest in a faint crimson glow.
00:55:55Isabella waited eagerly for Sebastian to claim her mark,
00:55:58her eyes sparkling with quiet excitement and anticipation.
00:56:00Are you ready?
00:56:01This mark will bind you to me completely as my mate,
00:56:03and awaken the full strength of your pure-blood Luna lineage.
00:56:06Yes.
00:56:07Sebastian rested his hands gently on Isabella's shoulders,
00:56:10and pressed his warm lips to hers to leave his mark.
00:56:12There was a faint twinge of pain,
00:56:14yet Isabella did not flinch for a moment,
00:56:16her gaze filled only with longing.
00:56:18The instant the mark settled,
00:56:20Sebastian's royal tined with Isabella's pure-blood Luna energy.
00:56:23Golden light swirled around them both,
00:56:25her golden irises blazing brighter than ever,
00:56:27as her ancient pure-blood era fully awakened within her.
00:56:31From this day on,
00:56:32I will never let anyone hurt you,
00:56:34never let you shed another tear.
00:56:36This mark is my vow to you.
00:56:38I trust you.
00:56:42Hidden in the shadows,
00:56:43Selina watched every moment unfold.
00:56:45She stared at their joined hands,
00:56:47consumed by bitter resentment.
00:56:48A ruthless glint flashed in her eyes.
00:56:51She quietly pulled out her communicator,
00:56:52and reached out to Sebastian's elder brother William.
00:56:55Why should they have everything?
00:56:56I will take back what belongs to me,
00:56:58and make them pay for standing in my way.
00:57:00Sebastian looked down at Isabella beside him,
00:57:02brushing the soft smile from her lips with tender reverence.
00:57:05He knew he no longer needed to hide his identity.
00:57:08At last,
00:57:09he could protect her openly,
00:57:10without fear or pretense.
00:57:11I will protect you,
00:57:12protect our child,
00:57:13and cherish every part of who you are.
00:57:15No one will ever make you suffer again.
00:57:19Sebastian began preparing for the Lycan royal coronation ceremony.
00:57:23On that day,
00:57:23he would publicly reveal his true identity as the rightful royal heir,
00:57:27be officially crowned Lycan king,
00:57:28and formally proclaim Isabella the legitimate Lycan queen,
00:57:31honored and revered by all werewolf claims.
00:57:34Meanwhile,
00:57:34life grew increasingly bleak for Evan's blood moon pack.
00:57:37Stripped of Isabella's Luna protection barrier,
00:57:39rogue packs began raiding their borders relentlessly.
00:57:42Casualties mounted,
00:57:43their territory fell into ruin,
00:57:44and the entire clan twiddered on the brink of collapse.
00:57:47Evan,
00:57:48if we carry on like this,
00:57:49the rogues will swallow our pack entirely.
00:57:52The new Lycan king's coronation is soon,
00:57:55and word spreads his power is unfathomable.
00:57:58If we can gain his favor,
00:58:00we'll never fear the rogues again.
00:58:02We weren't sent an invitation.
00:58:03This king has always lived in secrecy,
00:58:05cold and unpredictable.
00:58:05If we sneak in disguise to get caught,
00:58:08we'll only humiliate ourselves.
00:58:09Do we still care about pride?
00:58:10Saving our pack is all that matters.
00:58:12We'll dress common minor clan guests and blend into the crowd.
00:58:14Once we reach the royal desk,
00:58:16we'll find a chance to enratiate ourselves.
00:58:18Evan stared at his ravaged territory and his fading clan members.
00:58:21Overcome by desperation and ambition,
00:58:23he finally agreed to sneak into the coronation beside Martha,
00:58:25set on curing favor with the new Lycan king to secure his pack's survival.
00:58:28Upon hearing news of the ceremony,
00:58:31Selina chose not to go with Evan and Martha.
00:58:33She waited alone for William,
00:58:35Sebastian's elder brother,
00:58:37whom she had secretly allied with.
00:58:39Sebastian thinks he can claim the throne and reign in peace.
00:58:43William has already promised me he will seize power at the coronation.
00:58:48Once William overtows Sebastian and takes the crown,
00:58:51I will be his one and only queen,
00:58:54the true Lycan queen.
00:58:56I'll never again live in Isabella's shadow.
00:59:00She drowned herself in ambitious fantasies,
00:59:02waiting foolishly for William to appear,
00:59:05completely unaware she was nothing more than a pawn he had long been using.
00:59:10The Lycan holy mountain blazed with coronation splendor.
00:59:14Golden light spilled over the peaks.
00:59:15Royal guards standing tall with imposing presents.
00:59:18Powerful werewolf leaders from every clan filed in to take their seats.
00:59:22The entire sacred grounds steeped in solemn grandeur.
00:59:24Evan and Martha dressed in plain outsider robes,
00:59:26blending silently into the guest crowd and slipping into the ceremony grounds.
00:59:30They gazed up at the luxurious royal days,
00:59:32watching the dignified clan leaders around them,
00:59:34envy clear in their eyes.
00:59:35Both resolved to seize any chance to win the new Lycan king's favor and save their family.
00:59:39Their gaze drifted casually across the gathering,
00:59:41and they froze instantly,
00:59:43spotting Isabella and Sebastian standing side by side.
00:59:46Disdain and contempt settled over their faces at once.
00:59:49Look! Is that Isabella?
00:59:51How dare she intrude on a royal coronation?
00:59:54They exchanged a glance,
00:59:55both looking down on the pair.
00:59:57Evan's tone turned sharp with quiet mockery.
00:59:59And beside her,
01:00:01that's the rough low-class werewolf who bought her at the black market.
01:00:04A nobody with no standing.
01:00:06How dare he set foot on sacred Lycan royal grounds.
01:00:10Echoing his squirm,
01:00:11her disgust deepened out.
01:00:12They have no sense of their place.
01:00:14Both are outcasts unfit for high society,
01:00:17only here to leech off prestige and cling to power.
01:00:19They clearly snuck in uninvited with no status or lineage.
01:00:22Once the true Lyman king arrives,
01:00:24guards will drive them out publicly,
01:00:25and they'll be the laughingstock of everyone present.
01:00:29Evan and Martha stepped forward abruptly,
01:00:32blocking Isabella and Sebastian's path,
01:00:33their manner arrogant and their words cutting.
01:00:36Isabella,
01:00:36you exiled, golden-eyed freak.
01:00:39How dare you sneak into a royal coronation,
01:00:41parading around with this low-class werewolf.
01:00:43You have no shame at all.
01:00:45Sebastian, I still remember your ragged state at the black market.
01:00:48A nobody like you has no right to stand on sacred ground.
01:00:51Take her and leave before you embarrass yourselves further.
01:00:54Whether we belong here is none of your concern.
01:00:56You two snuck in without invitations,
01:00:58yet you still dare to act high and mighty.
01:01:00Sebastian drew Isabella gently to his side,
01:01:02adopting a humble, meek demeanor,
01:01:04his tone soft and unassuming.
01:01:06Alpha Evan,
01:01:07Lady Martha,
01:01:07we only came to watch the ceremony.
01:01:09We mean no trouble,
01:01:10and we'll take our leave at once.
01:01:12Seeing Sebastian's apparent weakness emboldened Martha further.
01:01:15She stepped forward sharply,
01:01:17her tone growing harsher still.
01:01:19Leave is not enough.
01:01:20A low-class werewolf trespassing on royal sacred ground.
01:01:23You will apologize to us.
01:01:26Exactly.
01:01:28Beg forgiveness and get out.
01:01:30When the Lion King arrives,
01:01:32he'll strip your wolf power and shame you publicly.
01:01:34A flicker of cold calm passed through Sebastian's eyes,
01:01:36though his tone remained mild,
01:01:38edged with quiet certainty.
01:01:39Is that so?
01:01:39Then let us wait and see who ends up embarrassed before everyone.
01:01:42Isabella lifted her gaze,
01:01:43a faint glimmer shining in her golden eyes.
01:01:45She played along with Sebastian's act,
01:01:47looking wronged,
01:01:47yet forcing herself to stay complete.
01:01:49You carry yourselves so arrogantly.
01:01:51Do you not fear angering the Lichen King?
01:01:54Martha scoffed openly,
01:01:55utterly dismissant of their words.
01:01:57Anger the King?
01:01:58The only ones embarrassing themselves here are you two.
01:02:02The King will punish you, not us.
01:02:06Their taunt stung sharp and loud in my ears.
01:02:09I had no wish to waste time on these petty troublemakers,
01:02:11only wanting to turn away and let the ceremony proceed undisturbed.
01:02:15Pay them no mind.
01:02:16The real show is about to begin.
01:02:18I nodded and turned to leave with him.
01:02:20But Evan took my silence as defeat,
01:02:22stepping forward to block our path,
01:02:24wearing a mocking, triumphant smirk.
01:02:26Kat got your tongue?
01:02:27Can't argue back, so you try to run?
01:02:29I knew it.
01:02:31You're both small-minded nobodies,
01:02:33unfit to stand against us.
01:02:34Run won't save you.
01:02:36Apologize here today,
01:02:37or everyone will see the two of you brought low and humiliated.
01:02:43I frowned, ready to speak,
01:02:45when solemn ceremonial horns echoed across the grounds.
01:02:47A hush fell instantly,
01:02:48every gaze turning towards the high das.
01:02:49The host's voice boomed across the holy mountain,
01:02:52clear and authoritative through spiritual resonance.
01:02:53The auspicious hour has come.
01:02:55The Lycan king's coronation ceremony begins.
01:02:59All rise for the rightful Lycan royal heir,
01:03:02Lord Sebastian,
01:03:03and his fated mate,
01:03:05Lady Isabella,
01:03:06to ascend the royal days.
01:03:11Golden light burst across the sky.
01:03:18I, Sebastian,
01:03:20rightful heir to the Lycan throne,
01:03:21have quelled my brother's rebellion
01:03:22and reclaimed my royal birthright.
01:03:24Today I ascend officially as Lion King
01:03:26and proclaim Isabella my sole Lion Queen.
01:03:29May all clans honor our rule
01:03:31and find peace under our protection.
01:03:33This was my mate,
01:03:35the one destined to walk beside me for all time.
01:03:38In the next instant,
01:03:40two sharp, disbelieving voices
01:03:41shattered the ceremony's solemnity.
01:03:44Impossible!
01:03:45It cannot be!
01:03:46How can you be the Lycan king?
01:03:47You are nothing but a ragged nobody
01:03:49from the black market.
01:03:50You're pretending to claim the throne.
01:03:51Yes, you're an imposter!
01:03:52A low-class werewolf
01:03:53could never be Lycan royal heir!
01:03:55You've tricked everyone
01:03:56with some underhanded scheme!
01:03:57The true Lord King
01:03:58could never be someone like you!
01:03:59They shouted hysterically,
01:04:01as if their refusal alone
01:04:02could undo reality.
01:04:04I watched their frantic display
01:04:05with complete indifference.
01:04:06It was utterly ridiculous now.
01:04:09The nobody they mocked
01:04:10was now the king.
01:04:11The outcasts they humiliated,
01:04:13now their queen.
01:04:17Insolent fools!
01:04:19To speak treason
01:04:21at the Lycan king's coronation,
01:04:23to deny royal lineage
01:04:25and dishonor the crown,
01:04:27you court your own doom.
01:04:30Guards, seize them!
01:04:31These two trespassed uninvited
01:04:33on sacred ceremony grounds,
01:04:34insulted the king and queen
01:04:35and flouted royal decree.
01:04:37By order of the crown,
01:04:38strip three-tenths
01:04:39of their wolf power,
01:04:40expel them from the holy mountain
01:04:41and ban them permanently
01:04:42from all Lycan territory.
01:04:44Any who defy this ruling
01:04:45shall be put to death
01:04:46without hesitation.
01:04:49He hated his own blindness and pride,
01:04:52mocking the true Lion King
01:04:54and now reaping the ruin
01:04:55he had sown.
01:04:56Your majesty King Sebastian,
01:04:57I beg forgiveness.
01:04:58I dare not doubt you again,
01:05:00I swear it.
01:05:01Your grace,
01:05:01Queen Isabella,
01:05:02please show mercy.
01:05:03We will never insult you again,
01:05:05never trespass on royal ceremony grounds.
01:05:07Spare us this once.
01:05:08You mock freely
01:05:09when you hold pride,
01:05:10yet beg for mercy and ruin.
01:05:12Your arrogance and ignorance
01:05:13deserve no forgiveness from me.
01:05:14They had brought this upon themselves,
01:05:16casting me aside,
01:05:17humiliating me,
01:05:18looking down on others,
01:05:19and now they faced the consequences.
01:05:21They left an utter disgrace,
01:05:22their pride shattered beyond repair.
01:05:28Selene alone beneath the shade of a tree,
01:05:31she clutched her communicator tightly.
01:05:34Why hasn't William come?
01:05:35He swore he would overthrow Sebastian
01:05:37at the coronation.
01:05:38Once he takes the crown,
01:05:39he'll make me Lion Queen.
01:05:41He wouldn't lie to me.
01:05:43The line was dead,
01:05:44completely.
01:05:45No,
01:05:46this can't be.
01:05:47He wouldn't deceive me.
01:05:49He must have been stopped by Sebastian's guards,
01:05:51caught in trouble somehow.
01:05:53William!
01:05:54William!
01:06:01Selene,
01:06:02you are foolish and greedy indeed.
01:06:04Did you truly believe
01:06:05I would risk everything for the throne,
01:06:07or crown you Queen?
01:06:08I only used you to drain your wealth
01:06:09and resources for my own gain.
01:06:11At last the truth crashed over her.
01:06:13This had never been anything
01:06:14but a carefully laid trap.
01:06:17Please,
01:06:17my wealth,
01:06:18my crown,
01:06:19everything is gone.
01:06:21He lied to me.
01:06:22He truly lied to me.
01:06:25Word soon spread
01:06:27of Selene's secret alliance
01:06:28with William.
01:06:30She was branded
01:06:31an enemy of the Lion Crown,
01:06:33blacklisted across
01:06:34all werewolf lands.
01:06:36Foolish woman,
01:06:37not only were you deceived,
01:06:38you dragged my pack into ruin.
01:06:40Do not show yourself to me again.
01:06:42We are finished.
01:06:43Evan,
01:06:43please help me.
01:06:44I know I was wrong.
01:06:46I only wanted a better life.
01:06:47Clean up the mess you made alone.
01:06:48Someone like you
01:06:49is not worthy of standing beside me.
01:06:55Penniless and without allies,
01:06:57she became a public joke
01:06:58among the werewolf clans.
01:07:01She spent her days
01:07:02adrift in loneliness and regret.
01:07:05Evan was stripped
01:07:06of part of his wolf power.
01:07:07His former alpha dominance
01:07:08faded away entirely.
01:07:10I let vanity blind me
01:07:12and look down on Sebastian
01:07:14out of pride.
01:07:15This ruin is entirely
01:07:16my own fault.
01:07:17If only I hadn't urged you
01:07:18to seek favor,
01:07:19if only I hadn't angered
01:07:20the royal family,
01:07:21what will become of us now?
01:07:23There is nothing we can do.
01:07:24Our pack fades.
01:07:26We are powerless to protect it.
01:07:27We can only leave
01:07:28our fate to time.
01:07:29The old glory
01:07:30of the blood moon pack
01:07:31faded into memory.
01:07:33The clan declined steadily
01:07:35into obscurity,
01:07:37struggling merely to survive.
01:07:42All external conflicts
01:07:44faded away
01:07:45and the last traces
01:07:46of royal rebellion
01:07:47were pink felled completely.
01:07:49Peace settled over every corner
01:07:52of werewolf territory.
01:07:55Sebastian ruled the Lycan throne
01:07:57steadily,
01:07:57managing clan affairs
01:07:59with calm order,
01:08:00leaving no room
01:08:01for further chaos.
01:08:03With Pup now growing inside me,
01:08:06I rested quietly
01:08:07in the Lyman royal mansion.
01:08:09Sebastian set aside
01:08:10many official duties
01:08:11to stay by my side,
01:08:12tending to my every need
01:08:14with gentle,
01:08:14careful devotion.
01:08:16You don't have to stay
01:08:17by my side every moment.
01:08:18Royal affairs keep you busy.
01:08:20Don't let me hold you back.
01:08:22The throne matters,
01:08:23but you and the pup you carry
01:08:25matter most in my life.
01:08:27The elders contend
01:08:29to all trivial matters.
01:08:30Ella also remained safely
01:08:31within the royal household,
01:08:33staying close to keep me company
01:08:34and looking after my daily needs
01:08:36with heartfelt care.
01:08:37Rest easy
01:08:38and focus on your pregnancy, Luna.
01:08:40I'll stay right here with you
01:08:41so you have nothing to worry about.
01:08:45Sebastian tangled his fingers
01:08:47with mine,
01:08:47his eyes soft.
01:08:51Ella smiled quietly beside us.
01:08:53Sunlight spilled through the window,
01:08:56warm and calm,
01:08:57over all three of us.
