Watch Reborn as the Sleeping Dragon's Bride: Complete EPS

Short filmTranscript
00:01I was born with a blood scent that could make dragon lords lose control.
00:04Pure breeding blood. The rarest kind in 300 years.
00:08At my mating ceremony, I crawled past the sacred gold offerings and grabbed Crown Prince Caelan between his pants.
00:15This little whore could be a clingy breeder in the future.
00:20He was wrong. Caelan and I became enemies.
00:24For 10 years, I watched his dragon eyes learn to hate my scent.
00:27On my 18th birthday feast, the king called me before the throne.
00:31Freya, choose any dragon lord in Valeria. I will grant him to you.
00:36Before I could answer, Caelan's voice cut across the hall.
00:39I would rather be torn apart by wild dragon knees than mate her.
00:44Something inside me broke. Good. Then make him choke on it.
00:47Then I will leave his fate to the gods. Pay for the price, Crown Prince Caelan.
00:51I thought he didn't mean it. Our betrothal ceremony was beautiful, but Caelan never gave me a glance.
00:58Your scent makes me sick.
01:00Years passed. I gave him no air. The court stopped bowing. Dragonborn ladies spat in my food,
01:06ripped my gowns and called me a barren human leech. Caelan only smiled. Then I heard him say it.
01:12She forced this marriage. She deserves karma. No one should pity her.
01:17One week later, he threw me into the velvet quarter.
01:21A useless breeder belongs in a pleasure house.
01:24I died there, bloody and left like rotten meat. His figure was the last thing I saw. He never looked
01:30back.
01:30Then lights split open. I woke on cold marble, gasping. I was reborn at my mating ceremony.
01:37Freya, choose any dragon lord in Valeria. I will grant him to you.
01:42The royal citadel. The feast. I would not risk my life on Caelan again. I took a deep breath.
01:48Your majesty. I respect the Crown Prince as someone I grew up with. Like a brother. I never wanted him.
01:54Not as a man. Not as a husband.
01:57My heart only belongs to dragon crook Lufician Drayenmore. If I couldn't marry him, I'd go finish myself.
02:03The court exploded. I had refused Valeria's golden prince and chosen his uncle. The cursed black silver dragon.
02:10The most fierce dragon who destroyed wild dragonkins for 200 years.
02:20Lucian Drayenmore fell coma since a year ago on the northern war front.
02:24Hurt by an unseen blade with curse, the healers said he would never wake. I knew they were wrong.
02:30In my last life, Lucian woke during my third year in hellish marriage.
02:34When dragonborn ladies had cornered me in the kitchens, they laughed, tore my sleeves and called me a barren human
02:40leech.
02:41Then a broken dragon rose from his wheeled chair. Lucian Drayenmore stood between us.
02:46Half crippled, but still terrifying. Back to now.
02:50Little one. Marrying Lucian would waste your gift. Choose another lord. Someone who can speak to you.
02:55I kept my forehead against the marble floor.
02:57Your majesty, I swore before the old gods. It is Lucian Drayenmore or no one.
03:02I hit my forehead on the floor. Once and once again.
03:05The court went quiet. Only left the sound of my bones crack.
03:09Queen Marianne smiled like she had been handed a gift.
03:12If the human girl wants a sleeping dragon, let her have him.
03:16So be it. Your bloodline is gone. Lucian cannot answer for himself.
03:21My queen will arrange the wedding for you too.
03:23I rose my bloody forehead and crumbling stood up.
03:26I am humbled beyond speech.
03:29I did not look at Caelan. I only felt his gold fire burning behind me.
03:33Let him burn. I would never choose him again.
03:36Lucian is way better than Caelan. Last life, though he's still weak, he's nice to me.
03:40I'll save him this time. We'll claw our way out of this shithole. Together.
03:44For three days, I slept like someone freed from a cage.
03:49Then came the knock at Ashbourne Hall.
03:51The queen commands your presence at the royal citadel tonight.
03:55My blood went cold.
03:57At dusk, Madam Corvin led me through the royal corridors.
04:01Dragonflowers scented the stone.
04:03Then she stopped and bowed.
04:05Your Highness, Crown Prince.
04:07I lifted my head. It's Caelan.
04:20Caelan stepped into the lamplight.
04:22He looked exactly like a future king.
04:24Proud and untouchable.
04:25Beautiful in the cruel Valorian way.
04:28Your Highness.
04:29He looked me over from crown to shoes,
04:30as if searching for the girl who used to chase him through these halls.
04:33That's all?
04:34In my last life, I knew his every habit.
04:36I baked honey cakes for him.
04:38I waited outside Crown Tower just to hand them over.
04:40He always tossed them to the palace drakes.
04:43Stop this pathetic chase, Freya.
04:45You are marrying my uncle now.
04:47Try to have some dignity.
04:49You disgust me.
04:50I am not chasing anyone.
04:52I was only telling the truth to your king father.
04:54I do not love you.
04:55Then you wandered into the royal family's private wing by accident?
04:58The queen summoned me.
05:00Ask Madam Corvin.
05:01His gold fire flared.
05:02So it was true.
05:03I had not come for him.
05:05My uncle is a corpse with a title.
05:07You may be a widow before your wedding bed even cools.
05:11Then I will be the happiest widow in Valoria.
05:14His pupils narrowed, then went black.
05:30Queen Marianne heard me out in silence.
05:32And before I had even finished my audience with her, my wedding to Lucian Dravenmore was set for one week
05:39later.
05:40Dravenmore's black silver banners stretched across the road as Gareth Thorne bowed before me.
05:44Lady Ashborough, Derrenmore receives you with honor.
05:48In my last life, Crown Tower never gave me this much respect.
05:51Some nobles called it widowhood with a title.
05:54I ignored them.
05:55Dravenmore had already given me more honor than Crown Tower ever did.
05:58When I reached Dravenmore keep, Gareth Thorne led me straight to the bridal chamber.
06:03Lucian Dravenmore lay on the bed, pale and silent.
06:06But even unconscious, he did not look weak.
06:08His sharp features, silver black hair and quiet dragon pressure, made him seem less like a dying man and more
06:13like a sleeping dragon.
06:15My lady, I prepared another room for you.
06:17I looked at Lucian, my heart steady despite the tension.
06:19No.
06:20He is my husband now.
06:22I'll stay here.
06:23The room went silent.
06:24After they left, I sat beside him.
06:26The air itself seemed to hold its breath.
06:28I leaned closer, feeling the subtle warmth of his body beneath the thin sheets.
06:33You're asleep anyway, so this doesn't count.
06:35I lowered my head and kissed him.
06:37His lips were warm.
06:38For a heartbeat, nothing happened.
06:40Then the air broke open.
06:41Dark pressure slammed through the room.
06:43Black, silver scales erupted along his neck.
06:46Windows cracked.
06:47His hand shot up and caught my throat.
06:49Not gentle, not soft.
06:50Dragon fire exploded from his body, scorching the ceiling and bed frame.
06:54I gasped, gripping his wrist.
06:56Lucian.
06:57His fingers burned against my skin, yet he didn't push me away.
07:14It's me.
07:15Queen Marianne heard me out in silence.
07:18His eyes were still closed, but his grip was tightening.
07:21Black, silver flame tore across the ceiling.
07:24The bed frame split.
07:25I grabbed his wrist.
07:27It's me.
07:29It's Freya.
07:30His fingers burned against my skin, then the fire pulled back.
07:33His hand dropped.
07:34The room went dark.
07:36Outside, Draven Moor Keep erupted.
07:38Shouts, running boots.
07:39Dragon flame lighting up the sky.
07:41Gareth broke through the door.
07:43My lady.
07:44I touched my neck.
07:45It was bruised.
07:46Lucian lay still again, but his breathing had changed.
07:49Deeper, stronger.
07:50The curse had cracked, but whatever was underneath was not gentle.
07:53I didn't know if I had started to wake him up, or started something worse.
07:57By dawn, healers filled the hall.
07:59Gareth locked down the entire floor.
08:11No one tells the royal citadel what happened last night.
08:14The mate, Flyam, responded to the marriage bond.
08:17That's all anyone needs to know.
08:18The bruise on my neck was already dark.
08:20A healer offered to treat it.
08:22Leave it.
08:22I went back to Lucian's room.
08:24He was still.
08:25Leave it.
08:25But the black, silver scales on his hand had not faded.
08:28His dragon blood was fighting something.
08:29The curse, the medicine, maybe both.
08:32I sat beside him.
08:33I don't know if you can hear me, but I'm not leaving.
08:37His fingers moved, barely.
08:39The news reached Crown Tower before noon.
08:41Caelan was sparring when a servant ran in.
08:43Your Highness, Dravenmore's mate flame answered Freya last night.
08:47Caelan stopped mid-swing.
08:48The whole northern sky lit up.
08:51Goldfire burst from Caelan's palm.
08:54The training post shattered.
08:55He thought the wedding would humiliate me.
08:57Instead, all of Royal Citadel was talking about how Dravenmore's dragon blood had chosen
09:01a human bride.
09:03Princess Anya walked in.
09:04So it's true.
09:05She looked at the burned post.
09:07They say Freya looked more like a duchess than a widow.
09:10Careful, Caelan.
09:12People might think you're the one who got left behind.
09:16That afternoon, Caelan called his steward.
09:18The Ashborough war records we archived move them to the sealed vault and send a message
09:22to the Royal Pharmacy.
09:23Any requests from Dravenmore go through my office first.
09:28And to be honest, by the way, how much fire has come from behind.
09:32It's just me here, code.
09:32It's Pedroonder's job of wanting to know how weird things can be to be out for you.
09:37I think what I did with that, you know, can I
09:44get enough to do it to be aใ ใใ. And it
09:46happens in my life with Michael vign Salut. And if
09:46I get enough ammo, I'm going to be able to do it. If I
09:48finish it really well, what the way you're doing can definitelyelnut it, tell me
09:49it goes, tell me I know about that in the mean fire genders
09:56and over it, I just like to put it into it in line.
10:23I put on Dravenmore black and silver and walked straight into the main
10:26hall. Selene's housekeeper stepped in front of me. Lady Selene is waiting in the west
10:30parlor. Then she can come here. The servants froze. Davinmore keep is not Selene Vela Vassa's
10:35house and I am not her guest. Gareth stood behind me. He said nothing. Every servant in the hall
10:40understood it. Gareth supported me as Lady Dravenmore. Bring me Lucien's healer records,
10:44medicine ledgers and night watch lists now. Selene arrived with a soft smile. Freya, you were married
10:49yesterday. Leave the household matters to me. This isn't household business. This is my husband's
10:54life. Selene kept smiling but her eyes didn't. By sunset I found the first problem in the medicine
10:59logs. Some herbs were not healing Lucien. They were suppressing his dragon blood. He wasn't too weak
11:04to wake. Someone was keeping him asleep. I needed the source records. Where the herbs came from. Who
11:08ordered them? The trail pointed to the royal pharmacy. I sent a rider to request the purchase records. The
11:14rider came back empty-handed. Crown Tower denied the request. They said all pharmaceutical inquiries
11:18from Dravenmore require approval from the Crown Prince's office. I understood. Selene's confidence
11:22didn't come from Dravenmore. It came from Crown Tower. That night Selene heard I'd found the local
11:27records. For the first time she stopped smiling. Send Rowan. Let my son teach her what happens to
11:32lonely wives in this house.
12:01Lady Dravenmore. I stopped. Come on. Your husband can't even open his eyes. Don't waste your youth on a
12:08sleeping man. He stepped closer. Selene runs this keep. I am her son. You are just the human bride they
12:15sent to warm Lucien's bed. Then I slapped him. Servants rushed over. No one dared speak. Rowan wiped
12:20blood from his lip. My mother will hear about this. Good. Tell Lady Selene I saved her the trouble.
12:27His face twisted. My mother! Your mother failed to raise you. That makes it my problem now. I turned
12:33to the hall. Freya. Gareth. Put him in the lower water cell. By morning maybe he'll remember whose
12:39keep this is. The guards moved toward Rowan. That was when the whole keep understood. I was Lady Dravenmore.
12:46Below the keep Rowan shook in freezing water. My mother knows about Lucien's medicine. He looked up
12:51shaking. She knows who kept him asleep. And Crown Tower knows she knows.
13:16Bestblic God. He knows she...
13:30all of us can't do that, back in with000 days. He did not leave her to see her. Even if
13:34he's right in the capture estavam kep family in this room. He did not leave her. I said
13:34to me. I don't know your heart. He didn't leave her. He told me
13:35get overcome. Get out of here! hospice!
13:35finding you're not going.
13:35You can only catch him earring.
13:36And he'll catch him as if you're finding new
13:44but he's touch and rricting her.
14:03At dawn, Gareth brought me Rowan's confession.
14:06He was drunk, but he said the medicine was switched, and he said Crown Tower was involved.
14:10I looked at Lucian.
14:11The black silver scales on his hand had faded, but his fingers were warmer than before.
14:15Bring me every medicine log from the last year.
14:18And find me a healer who doesn't answer to Salona or the Royal Pharmacy.
14:22By breakfast, the hall was full.
14:24Servants stood with their heads down.
14:26Selina sat at the high table, calm as ever.
14:28Freya, you locked my son in a water cell over drunken words.
14:31Now you want to accuse me too?
14:33I want records.
14:35Household records are not toys for a new bride.
14:38Then explain this.
14:41Her smile stopped.
14:42Lucian's dose changed three months ago.
14:44The healer's seal is missing.
14:46The delivery mark belongs to your steward.
14:48Gareth stepped beside me.
14:49From today on, no one touches Lucian's food, wine, or medicine unless I see it first.
14:53You think you can run, Darren Moore?
14:56No.
14:56I already am.
14:58A crash came from Lucian's chamber.
15:00We ran back.
15:01The medicine bowl had split in half.
15:02Black silver fire burned across the floor.
15:05Lucian's eyes were still closed, but his hand had crushed the bed rail.
15:08That evening, a sealed letter arrived from Crown Tower.
15:10Not a personal note.
15:11An official order with the royal stamp.
15:13Gareth read it aloud.
15:14By the authority of Crown Prince Kaelin, a royal medical delegation will be dispatched to
15:18Dragan Moore Keep to evaluate Duke Lucian's condition and review all medical arrangements
15:22currently in place.
15:23The room went quiet.
15:24When?
15:26Three days.
15:27I looked at the letter.
15:28If Kaelin's doctors walked in here, they would take over Lucian's treatment, reverse
15:31everything I had changed, put Selene's people back in charge, and I couldn't refuse.
15:35He was using his nephew's health as the excuse.
15:38Then we have three days.
26:54I don't see this again.
26:57Ilysses, she was nessa man.
26:58You were all about Good Criminal.
26:58Take my legs.
27:05Thanks.
27:05This vault.
27:06This vault is all about blue hair.
27:08Irecorded my chest, and turned me by a little horse.
27:13Every servant in the hall dropped to one knee.
27:16For the first time, they were not kneeling because Lucian had woken.
27:19They were kneeling because I had won.
31:35.

34:25.
34:32The news reached Crown Tower by nightfall.
34:34Caelan read the report once, then goldfire burst from his hand.
34:38Half the desk burned before the guards could move.
34:40He threw out my delegation?
34:42The messenger shook.
34:43Yes, your highness. Lady Selina has been confined.
34:45Rowan Vos is in the dungeon.
34:47Caelan's eyes went gold.
34:48Freya did this.
34:50Lucien did this. Freya gave him the knife.
34:52Later, Queen Marion called House Marion into her private chamber.
34:56If Lucien speaks of the Northern Warfront, every old wound opens.
35:00A lord leaned close.
35:01Then we strike first.
35:02At court. Accused him of hiding troops, ignoring royal summons and using illness to build power in the north.
35:07At the same time, Caelan went to King Alaric.
35:09Father, Uncle Lucien just woke from a curse. He should return to the Royal Citadel for treatment.
35:14You sound very concerned.
35:16Caelan's mouth tightened.
35:17He is family.
35:18Across the hall, Princess Anya heard enough.
35:20That night, she found Edric Ravenshade near the chapel.
35:22Your cousin is walking into a trap.
35:25Which cousin?
35:26The one Freya married. Try to keep up.
35:28Edric's face changed.
35:30Send word to Dravenmore.
35:31Tell Lady Dravenmore the Queen is moving first.
35:54A Mayor from the Nashville Nation.

36:46Lucian
36:47Lucian could stand now, not long, not without pain
36:49His dragon blood had broken the curse, but the damage stayed in his legs
36:52Some nights, his fire turned wild
36:54One burst split the bedpost
36:56Another cracked the stone wall
36:58I worked his legs every morning
36:59Mixed the new medicine myself
37:01On the fourth night, the flame surged before I could move
37:03The force threw me against the floor
37:05My arm hit broken stone
37:07Blood ran to my wrist
37:08Lucian froze
37:09The fire died at once
37:11He tried to stand too fast
37:12And nearly fell
37:13It's a scratch
37:14I hurt you
37:16The curse hurt me
37:17Not you
37:19Do not make this sound easy
37:20I wrapped cloth around my arm
37:22I knew what I was choosing when I married you
37:24He stared at me for a long second
37:26You should not only be ready to suffer
37:28His thumb brushed my bandage
37:30You should be treated well
37:32I stopped breathing
37:33For the first time, he wasn't speaking as a duke
37:35He was speaking as my husband
37:49You should be treated well
37:50Whatever, he understood costs
37:50He was teaching as I'm counting always

40:02.
40:14The summons arrive three days later.
40:16King Alaric's seal. Royal parchment.
40:19No room to refuse.
40:21Gareth read it in the hall.
40:22Dragon Duke Lucian Dravenmore and Lady Freya Davenmore are commanded to attend the Royal Citadel.
40:27The servants looked at me.
40:29Lucian took the letter.
40:30So they finally want us in the open.
40:32It could be a trap.
40:34It is a trap.
40:35Then we should not go.
40:36If I refuse, they call it rebellion. If I go, they have to face me in front of the king.
40:40He looked at me.
40:41And I have things to show my brother.
40:43That night, I packed the evidence myself.
40:46Selene's ledgers.
40:47The medicine logs.
40:49The payment trail to the Royal Pharmacy.
40:51Every page that tied Dravenmore's sickness to Crown Tower and the Royal Citadel.
40:56Mira tied the case shut.
40:57Are you afraid?
40:58I looked at the Royal Seal.
41:00I died in that city once.
41:03Mira went quiet.
41:04I'm not going back as that girl.
41:08Before dawn, I found Lucian on the tower.
41:11Royal Citadel was far beyond the dark hills.
41:15Caelan will be there.
41:16So will the queen.
41:19And me.
41:20He offered his hand.
41:21I took it.
41:22This time, I was not walking into Crown Tower alone.
41:39We returned to the Royal Citadel under black silver banners.
41:43The streets went quiet first.
41:44Then everyone started whispering.
41:46Lucian Dravenmore was not dead.
41:47And I was not the ruined girl Crown Tower once threw away.
41:50Northern dragon riders rode on both sides of our carriage.
41:53Gareth led them with one hand on his sword.
41:55At the palace gate, Caelan stood above the steps.
41:57He looked at Lucian's cane.
41:59Then he looked at me.
42:00I looked past him.
42:01That hurt him more.
42:03Queen Marianne held a welcome feast that night.
42:05Duke Lucian, Valeria is relieved to see you awake.
42:08Relieved enough to send her a suckon?
42:10Her smile tightened.
42:11The king missed his brother.
42:13Then we are happy to answer his majesty.
42:14We brought everything he needs to see.
42:16Her eyes moved to the locked case beside my chair.
42:19How thoughtful.
42:20After dinner, Princess Anya caught my sleeve near the corridor.
42:23Madame Corvik has been going to the Royal Archive every night.
42:26I stopped.
42:27Whatever you brought, she may be trying to burn the matching half.
42:31That night, Lucian closed our chamber door.
42:35Edric confirmed it.
42:36The original letter about your father's march is still sealed in the Archive.
42:40Can we get it?
42:41Only the king can open that vault.
42:46Then we make him want to.
43:17The 11th century of Ezra combien Molech of Reiance.

43:27gives you less than six days and i want to take a couple minutes.
43:27In the name of 2018, he's $11!
43:28So what's all about, Sh
43:33I think that you're so nice to see.
43:36Right now we have 25 MATTESON,
43:46on the ilk of an Xbox.
44:05The autumn court filled the royal hall by sunrise.
44:08Dragon lords, human nobles, crown loyalists.
44:11Lucian entered with a cane.
44:12The room still bowed.
44:13Black silver pressure rolled over the floor.
44:15Even House Marianne's men stopped smiling.
44:18Caelan sat in the prince's seat, gold fire flickering under his skin.
44:21A Marianne lord stepped forward first.
44:23Your majesty, Duke Lucian has been absent from court for a year.
44:26His private dragon riders remain under northern command.
44:28Valeria needs a royal oversee her in Drevenmore.
44:30The hall stirred.
44:31So that was their move.
44:32Call Lucian weak.
44:33Call his army dangerous.
44:34Put crown tower inside our key.
44:36Lucian handed Gareth's sealed report to the king's steward.
44:39Current rider count, grain stores, border patrols, tax ledgers,
44:43records for Sir Nervas and her son.
44:44King Alaric read in silence.
44:46Reports can be dressed up.
44:48So can treason.
44:49The lord froze.
44:50King Alaric lowered the report.
44:52The north appears better managed than half the estates in this room.
44:56No oversaw will be sent.
44:58Caelan's jaw tightened.
45:00After court, he blocked me on the stone steps.
45:02Did you come back just to parade him in front of me?
45:05No.
45:06Then why are you here?
45:07To speak to the king.
45:10I stepped around him.
45:11This has nothing to do with you.
45:13For once, Caelan had no answer.
45:33$2.
45:34Yesterday was added to the king's co-ch ic.
45:37Whenever Elvis rosepable in the first day,
45:37it'sgado of ํ๋๏ฟฝing non- whispering or having trouble.
45:37I said, yeah, we're also linked one of those approaches.
45:50Before he encounters to beg.
45:51I'm so glad that์์ ์ถ้ถize.
45:54Take care of her as long as impossible.
46:00Does fonction sound.
46:00After some experiments like oh crap.
46:01.
46:47The next day, the court gathered in the rose dragon garden.
46:50I found the old pool behind the rose wall.
46:53I had fallen in there as a child.
46:55I remembered cold water, small hands, then a black cloak around my shoulders.
47:00Lucian stopped beside me.
47:02You told me Ashborough girls didn't cry over water.
47:06I turned.
47:07That was you?
47:08You were ten, soaked through, furious at the pond.
47:13And you remembered that?
47:14I remembered you.
47:15For a second, the court noise faded.
47:17Then Queen Marion's voice cut through the garden.
47:19How charming.
47:20A human duchess among dragonhounds.
47:23Valeria is becoming very generous.
47:25The noble ladies went quiet.
47:27Caelan looked at me.
47:28I did not speak.
47:29Lucian did.
47:29House Ashbird bled for Valeria before half these dragonhouses learned how to hold a border.
47:34Queen Marion's smile cracked.
47:38Freer's bloodline has earned its place here.
47:40A Marion lady muttered.
47:41Human blood is still human blood.
47:45Lucian turned his dark gold eyes on her.
47:47Then pray you never need human soldiers to die for your comfort again.
47:50No one laughed.
47:51I looked at Lucian.
47:53For the first time, I understood.
47:55His silence all these years had never been indifference.
47:58It had been restraint.
48:44Anya's warning was real.
48:46Edric checked the Royal Archive records for me.
48:48Three nights.
48:50Three visits.
48:52Madam Corvin entered the sealed wing each time with a Marianne clerk.
48:55The exit list is wrong.
48:57Files went in.
48:58Fewer came out.
48:59Which files?
49:00Northern Warfront.
49:01Ashpington marching routes.
49:03Dragonblood curse reports.
49:04Lucian's hand tightened on his cane.
49:06They are destroying the trail.
49:08Then we split it.
49:09Lucian went to request royal access from King Alaric.
49:12I sent Edric to the old Archive clerk who had served my father.
49:16By midnight, Mira came to my room carrying a basket of white roses.
49:31Don't yell.
49:32I know it looks stupid.
49:34She pulled the cloth aside.
49:36Three copied letters lay under the flowers.
49:38My hands went cold.
49:39One letter marked my father's route through the northern pass.
49:42One confirmed the route had been sent before the ambush.
49:45The last carried a red wax seal.
49:47House Marriand.
49:48Mira stared at it.
49:49My lady.
49:51That's the Queen's family.
49:52I closed the letters.
49:55Not just her family.
49:58Lucian entered before dawn.
50:00The King agreed to open the vault tomorrow.
50:01I handed him the copies.
50:03Good.
50:04His face changed as he read.
50:07Because now we know what they'll try to hide.
50:32The King agreed to open the vault tomorrow.
50:52Wow!
50:52.
