00:30:22You can't stand in front of everyone like this.
00:30:25Come on, I'll take you to change.
00:30:27No need.
00:30:44That cheap little bitch actually got into the Royal Academy.
00:30:49Do you know who she slept with to get here?
00:30:55No idea.
00:30:56But honestly, people who rely on others never end well.
00:31:00She must be someone's mistress!
00:31:01And that wasn't enough?
00:31:03Now she's trying to seduce Wayne?
00:31:05Because of her, I'm a joke!
00:31:09Good.
00:31:10I'll show everyone
00:31:12what she really is.
00:31:27Don't forget what I told you.
00:31:30Once it's done,
00:31:31there's more where this came from.
00:31:37Don't worry, my lady.
00:31:39We'll take good care of her.
00:31:52Who are you?
00:31:54Get out!
00:31:56Well, what's a pretty girl like you doing in here all alone?
00:32:00Don't be scared.
00:32:02We're just here to have some fun.
00:32:12Fuck!
00:32:17Stella!
00:32:18Open the door!
00:32:20Open it?
00:32:21Sure.
00:32:23Promise you'll stay away from Wayne
00:32:25and I'll open it right now.
00:32:27I promise!
00:32:28Just open the door!
00:32:37No!
00:32:40No!
00:32:43No!
00:32:45Ah!
00:32:48No!
00:32:56No!
00:32:56No!
00:32:57No!
00:32:58No!
00:33:08I don't know anything. I was just...
00:33:10Shut up!
00:33:13You went too far.
00:33:16I'll report this to the king myself.
00:33:18From now on, I don't want to see you again.
00:33:20Get out!
00:33:23Wayne! I'm sorry! I really am!
00:33:31Everyone, turn around. Close your eyes.
00:33:38Look at her.
00:33:39What happened?
00:33:48Don't move.
00:33:51Wayne is helping her.
00:33:53Does he like her?
00:33:54Even if he does, she's just a toy.
00:33:59Shut up!
00:34:05Get in.
00:34:08We should keep our distance.
00:34:10What?
00:34:11If it weren't for you, they wouldn't have targeted me.
00:34:13None of this would have happened.
00:34:20You just yelled at me, Stepsid.
00:34:22Now you have to take responsibility and get me home safely.
00:34:26Stop being mad.
00:34:28Let me see if you're hurt.
00:34:29Go away.
00:34:30Don't be like that.
00:34:32You know it breaks my heart.
00:34:42Why is my heart beating so fast because of him?
00:34:45No.
00:34:46Impossible.
00:34:47He's my stepbrother.
00:34:49I'd have to be crazy to fall for him.
00:34:51How did this happen?
00:34:52It's all because of that cheap bitch, Tess.
00:34:55Looks like Tess is very important to Wayne.
00:35:00You've lost any chance of becoming his wife.
00:35:03I'm going to destroy her.
00:35:14Let go of me!
00:35:25Playing the royal mistress, seducing Wayne.
00:35:28You're talented for a beggar.
00:35:32Are you insane?
00:35:39Today, I'm teaching you what happens when you cross real noble ladies.
00:35:44Maybe low-born trash like her enjoys being handled this way.
00:36:01What beautiful hair.
00:36:07What are you doing?
00:36:11Tell me, if I shave every strand off your head,
00:36:15do you think Wayne will still look at you?
00:36:39Are you out of your mind?
00:36:42Shut up!
00:36:43We're better!
00:36:48Drag her over here!
00:36:51Let go!
00:36:52There's a fire!
00:36:53Don't you see it?
00:36:56Just die!
00:36:58Just die!
00:37:01Just die!
00:37:03Just die!
00:37:24I told you I never wanted to see your face again.
00:37:27Stay away from Tess!
00:37:29How can you treat me like this for her?
00:37:31Didn't you promise to take care of me when we were children?
00:37:34Get this through your head.
00:37:36I never liked you.
00:37:38I only saw you as a family friend.
00:37:40And the second you laid a finger on Tess, you made sure of one thing.
00:37:44I despise you.
00:37:46You disgust me.
00:37:50My father is a minister.
00:37:52How dare you treat me like this?
00:37:54When the king hears about this, he'll punish you.
00:37:57Go ahead.
00:37:58I'll visit your family myself and tell them exactly what you did today.
00:38:03You'll wear this shame for the rest of your life.
00:38:10No, you can't do this!
00:38:13Wait!
00:38:14I was just...
00:38:16I was angry!
00:38:18I only did it because I love you!
00:38:25If you hadn't come, I really might have died there today.
00:38:29Next time something like that happens, come to me.
00:38:32You won't always be there.
00:38:35I will.
00:38:36I'll protect you forever.
00:38:50Your Majesty.
00:38:51Is something wrong?
00:38:54Nothing.
00:38:55Regarding Tess, there are things you should know.
00:38:58She is having a very hard time fitting in at the Academy.
00:39:01She has already had several conflicts with the noble girls.
00:39:04She clearly isn't suited for this life.
00:39:06I will handle my daughter myself.
00:39:08Of course, Your Majesty.
00:39:15Haven't the etiquette lessons at the Academy been a little intense lately?
00:39:19My lady, it is all preparation for next month's general exams and the public ceremony.
00:39:23Who does she think she is?
00:39:25Some nobody who crawled her way into the palace, and now she thinks she can look down on me?
00:39:29Logorn.
00:39:31Shameless.
00:39:31And still trying to climb by clinging to princes.
00:39:34Does she actually think she deserves any of this?
00:39:41Your Majesty.
00:39:42Were you talking about Tess?
00:39:44I was only stating the truth.
00:39:46Tess is a nobody who somehow slipped in here.
00:39:49Low-blorn, arrogant, and she still dares to...
00:39:53Tess is a royal princess.
00:39:55She is my daughter.
00:39:57Who are you to insult her like that?
00:40:03You don't know, do you?
00:40:06You don't know what happened between your daughter and Wayne, do you?
00:40:12Chapter 3, Section 2.
00:40:16You got it wrong again.
00:40:22Are you even listening?
00:40:24I am.
00:40:25But you keep staring at me.
00:40:27How am I supposed to focus?
00:40:32I'm not staring.
00:40:34Do you really only see me as your brother?
00:40:44I don't believe you feel nothing for me.
00:40:48Don't flatter yourself.
00:40:49I promised the king I'd tutor you.
00:40:52Feelings are not part of it.
00:40:55Sure.
00:40:59Keep reading.
00:41:16I'm not falling for you.
00:41:26I knew you fell for me.
00:41:30Wayne, don't...
00:42:10Do you have any idea what you're doing?
00:42:12Have you slept with Wayne?
00:42:15Mum, I haven't...
00:42:16Shut up!
00:42:18I brought you into this palace
00:42:20not so you could act like some loose, wild girl
00:42:23and seduce a prince.
00:42:26I...
00:42:26I didn't seduce him.
00:42:28You are a curse!
00:42:30You will destroy everything I worked for!
00:42:33I'm your daughter.
00:42:35How can you say that to me?
00:42:37I almost wish I had never given birth to a daughter like you.
00:42:42I sacrificed so much for your future
00:42:46and now you want to ruin it all!
00:42:48Enough!
00:42:50I seduce Tess.
00:42:52If you want to hit someone, hit me.
00:42:53You, too, are insane!
00:43:01You, too, are insane!
00:43:13Shh!
00:43:15Where are we going?
00:43:17Don't talk.
00:43:18Follow me.
00:43:30So that's where you hide.
00:43:36Enough, Tess.
00:43:37Don't drink so much.
00:43:47She never asks what I want.
00:43:49She never asks who I want to be with.
00:43:51I hate her!
00:43:52I hate this palace!
00:43:53I hate their stupid rules!
00:43:56And I hate you, too!
00:44:00You know exactly how I feel and you keep teasing me!
00:44:06Fine, fine.
00:44:07I'm a jerk.
00:44:08Give me the cup.
00:44:09No.
00:44:20You're the worst.
00:44:22Really?
00:44:24How am I the worst?
00:44:30You're a jerk.
00:44:33You always seduce me.
00:44:37I don't care.
00:44:39You're not allowed to leave me.
00:44:43Fine.
00:44:44But let's go back first.
00:45:01You're drunk.
00:45:02I'm carrying you back to your room before something actually happens.
00:45:06I'm not going back.
00:45:10I don't give it back.
00:45:11I don't want to...
00:45:13Sire, the falconry exhibition went exceptionally well today.
00:45:22Everyone has improved a great deal.
00:45:25Tess is still a little unfamiliar with it.
00:45:28She is your sister now.
00:45:32Wayne is reckless, so you should look after her more.
00:45:38Of course, Lash Shryer.
00:45:40By the way, I thought I saw someone come this way.
00:45:42Then look for yourself.
00:45:52She's drunk.
00:45:58Ha ha!
00:46:05Maybe, by the way...
00:46:06Tess is...
00:46:09Whoila says...
00:46:10Pretty crowbar.
00:46:11You should look after her more.
00:46:11But like I said I've scared...
00:46:12You should look after her.
00:46:18Strange.
00:46:20How are you and Tess getting along?
00:46:24Very well.
00:46:26She is family now.
00:46:28I want you and Wayne to treat her as your true sister.
00:46:32Of course, sire.
00:46:34This is excellent.
00:46:36By the way, Wayne has improved a lot lately.
00:46:39I am pleased.
00:46:40As his elder brother, you should guide him.
00:46:42I understand.
00:46:57Even if this is wrong,
00:47:00even if we have to hide forever, I don't care.
00:47:03Just don't leave me.
00:47:06No.
00:47:08This is wrong.
00:47:10From now on,
00:47:12we're only stepsbredlings.
00:47:14Nothing more.
00:47:15I don't want that!
00:47:17If the king finds out,
00:47:19you'll be thrown out of the palace.
00:47:22I can't gamble with your future.
00:47:26Fine.
00:47:27If you don't want me,
00:47:29I'll find someone else.
00:47:44Who's that?
00:47:45A new whore?
00:47:55Hey, gorgeous.
00:47:57Why don't you spend the night with me?
00:48:00You.
00:48:05What the hell are you doing?
00:48:33why are you here because you keep trying to get yourself killed

00:53:55as a man how was I supposed to deny it?
00:53:57Tess I swear to God I'm not lying

00:56:10I love you Wayne
00:56:12You're all I have left.
00:56:16I'll never leave you alone.
00:56:50I can't believe Tess is actually a princess.
00:56:53I'm so jealous.
00:56:54She's smart.
00:56:55And Wayne and Lucien are both her brothers.
00:56:57And Wayne's improved so much lately.
00:56:59My father said the king is pleased with him.
00:57:01Even that difficult envoy from the neighboring kingdom was handled by Wayne.
00:57:22Tess, your dress is beautiful.
00:57:24And you're even prettier than the rumors say.
00:57:26You should have told us you were a princess sooner.
00:57:28It would have saved us all those misunderstandings.
00:57:31I'm still getting used to all of this.
00:57:33Come on.
00:57:34You're the most popular girl in the whole academy now.
00:57:38Don't misunderstand, princess.
00:57:39I'm only here to return something you lost.
00:57:45My diary!
00:57:47Wait.
00:57:49This part is interesting.
00:57:52I shouldn't look at his lips.
00:57:54I shouldn't think about his hands.
00:57:56I shouldn't forget he's my step-brother when he gets close.
00:58:01If this love has to stay hidden, I'm willing.
00:58:05As long as Wayne doesn't leave you.
00:58:08Wayne?
00:58:09She's writing about Prince Wayne?
00:58:13Oh my god.
00:58:13I can't believe it.
00:58:15You actually have feelings like that for your own step-brother.
00:58:18I don't know about that.
00:58:19Disgusting.
00:58:20If I were the king, I'd throw her out.
00:58:21Exactly.
00:58:22This is a royal scandal.
00:58:26Come on.
00:58:27You're the most popular girl in the world.
00:58:29How did you get my diary?
00:58:40You...
00:58:45You stole my diary?
00:58:47Stole?
00:58:48That's harsh.
00:58:49I simply picked up something that shouldn't have fallen out.
00:58:51You're disgusting.
00:59:00I was merciful enough not to hand that gyrie to Cyr.
00:59:04You should be thanking me for not getting you and that low-lord mother of yours thrown out of the
00:59:09palace.
00:59:12What do you want?
00:59:15I want you to be my mistress.
00:59:17And I want you to help me take Wayne down for good.
00:59:25I'd rather die than be your mistress.
00:59:32Then you need to learn a lesson.
00:59:36Today, I'll punish her on the king's behalf.
00:59:39Drag her through the streets.
00:59:41Let everyone see the woman who disgraced the royal family!
00:59:46Let go of me!
00:59:51How does it taste, princess?
00:59:53Enough! Back away!
00:59:58Tess.
00:59:59Tell me the truth.
01:00:01Is this just you having feelings for Wayne or are the two of you actually involved?
01:00:06I have to put this in my report to his majesty.
01:00:10If I admit it, Wayne will be thrown out of the palace.
01:00:13I can't admit it.
01:00:15I have feelings for Wayne.
01:00:17He knows nothing about it.
01:00:18She's lying!
01:00:22Enough!
01:00:24Enough!
01:00:25Yes!
01:00:27We're in love.
01:00:34Did they hurt you?
01:00:37I'm fine.
01:00:49Wayne!
01:00:50Are you crazy?
01:00:53I told your father everything you've done.
01:00:56That's his letter.
01:01:03Stella Anderson, you've disgraced your family.
01:01:06Your father has disowned you.
01:01:08From today on, you're no longer an Anderson.
01:01:10Impossible!
01:01:11You're lying!
01:01:12No!
01:01:13Father wouldn't do this to me!
01:01:15I'll tell the king everything!
01:01:16I'll destroy you!
01:01:17I'll ruin both of you!
01:01:27Listen carefully.
01:01:28I seduce Tess.
01:01:30She's innocent.
01:01:31Whatever punishment comes from this, I'll take it alone.
01:01:37Your Majesty.
01:01:38News from the Academy.
01:01:40Speak.
01:01:41Prince Wayne and Princess Tess.
01:01:43Their affair has spread through the Academy.
01:01:46What?
01:01:46Prince Wayne admitted in public, he...
01:01:49That he and Princess Tess are together.
01:01:51He said he would bear all the blame.
01:01:54He's insane and so is she!
01:01:56Me!
01:01:59Your Majesty.
01:02:02Move!
01:02:04I can do it myself.
01:02:06Don't move.
01:02:14Tess!
01:02:17And listen to me.
01:02:19You two have truly lost their minds.
01:02:23Mother, please.
01:02:24Enough!
01:02:26It's not enough to disgrace yourselves at the Academy.
01:02:28You had to bring this filth back to the palace.
01:02:31I brought her back to change.
01:02:33You don't know what happened today.
01:02:34You...
01:02:34I don't want your excuses.
01:02:36Come with me.
01:02:37Wayne!
01:02:40Take one more step and I'll go to the king right now.
01:02:54Listen to me.
01:02:57Mom, listen to me.
01:02:59It's not what you think.
01:03:00Shut up!
01:03:03Don't touch her!
01:03:06Are you insane?
01:03:08Do you even want the throne anymore?
01:03:10This has nothing to do with the throne.
01:03:12Nothing?
01:03:13You confessed in public that you seduced her.
01:03:16Do you know how that will spread?
01:03:18Do you know how that will spread?
01:03:19I know.
01:03:20No you don't!
01:03:21You only know how to play the hero.
01:03:24You'll ruin her and she'll ruin you!
01:03:27I won't.
01:03:28I love her.
01:03:29And she loves me.
01:03:30Even if she does ruin me, I don't care.
01:03:34And you?
01:03:35You don't care either?
01:03:36If the king hears about this, Wayne's future is ruin.
01:03:40Are you gonna make him give up everything for you?
01:03:42Think about that!
01:03:56I'm good!
01:03:58Thank you!
01:03:59Yes?
01:04:01Thank you!
01:04:01Thank you!
01:04:02Thank you!
01:04:02Thank you!
01:04:07Thank you!
01:04:10I need two small favors.
01:04:13If you agree, I can secure your place as queen forever.
01:04:17What are you trying to do?
01:04:18I want you to meet with the head tutor at the Royal Academy.
01:04:21And use your authority as queen to change Wayne's scores on the next exam.
01:04:26You're insane.
01:04:28I only need you to put him back where he belongs.
01:04:31Then add a little something to his meals.
01:04:34Once Wayne is dead, all our problems disappear.
01:04:41You can refuse.
01:04:44I'll personally tell Scythe about Tess and Wayne.
01:04:48Then Tess won't be the only one thrown out of the palace.
01:04:52You will be too.
01:05:01If I agree, you promise Tess won't be thrown out?
01:05:05As long as you obey, Tess remains a princess and you remain queen.
01:05:09Only this once.
01:05:12Of course.
01:05:27Mentor Selina, there has to be a mistake.
01:05:31I checked all of Wayne's answers.
01:05:33Succession law, diplomatic history, night regulations.
01:05:35He got them right.
01:05:36How is this a failing grade?
01:05:37This is his grade.
01:05:40That's impossible.
01:05:42Please check the papers again.
01:05:43Tess, don't question my judgment.
01:05:46But...
01:05:47Move.
01:06:01Failed, Wayne.
01:06:02You're still this bad.
01:06:05I worked hard.
01:06:07Worked hard?
01:06:08With a score like this, you still have the nerve to say that.
01:06:14I gave you a chance.
01:06:16And you, you never do anything but disappoint me.
01:06:19Your mother would be disappointed in you too.
01:06:24From today on, I give up on training Wayne as an heir.
01:06:29The throne will go to Lucian.
01:06:33Thank you for your faith in me, father.
01:06:47Guards!
01:06:51Pack Wayne's things.
01:06:53Escort him out of the capital by the end of the day!
01:06:57If all you need is a son with perfect grades, I'll leave now.
01:07:02Good.
01:07:03At least you understood the order this time.
01:07:08Take care, my brother.
01:07:11Wait!
01:07:18Tess, this is not your place.
01:07:20Your Majesty, he really worked hard.
01:07:23There's no way he failed.
01:07:24Something must be wrong.
01:07:26Enough!
01:07:27Stop making excuses for him!
01:07:29Stop.
01:07:33It's alright.
01:07:34It's not alright, Wayne!
01:07:38Take care of yourself.
01:07:41If you're leaving, I'm going with you.
01:07:48Your Majesty, I can explain Wayne's grade.
01:07:56Catherine?
01:08:00I forced the Academy Tutor to change Wayne's grade.
01:08:03What did you say?
01:08:05What are you talking about?
01:08:06Do you know what you're accusing yourself of?
01:08:08I was forced.
01:08:09Lucian threatened me.
01:08:11He made me use my position as Queen to meet with the Tutor and lower Wayne's scores.
01:08:15Absurd.
01:08:15You're smearing my name just to save your daughter.
01:08:17These are proof.
01:08:19The letters say everything.
01:08:21He forced me to alter the grades.
01:08:22And he forced me to poison Wayne's meals.
01:08:24You were going to kill him.
01:08:26It's fake!
01:08:27She forged all of it!
01:08:34Father, you don't believe her, do you?
01:08:36How dare you murder your own brother!
01:08:43Murder my brother?
01:08:45That useless bastard was never my brother!
01:08:55Lucian!
01:08:56From this moment on, you are no longer a prince of the Venet royal family.
01:09:00Escort him out of the capital.
01:09:02He is never to set foot in the royal city again.
01:09:05I have no son like him!
01:09:06You'll regret choosing him.
01:09:08You'll regret it!
01:09:13Your Majesty, I have made a terrible mistake.
01:09:16I am willing to give up my place as Queen and leave the palace.
01:09:18Please don't punish Tess.
01:09:21Let her remain a princess and finish her studies at the academy.
01:09:24The Queen is asking to leave the palace.
01:09:26This is serious.
01:09:29Letting Tess stay is not impossible.
01:09:31But the rumors about you and Tess,
01:09:34are they true?
01:09:36They are true.
01:09:39I fell for her first.
01:09:41I crossed the line first.
01:09:42I seduced Tess.
01:09:43You can condemn me for it, but please don't hurt her.
01:09:46I love him too.
01:09:47I know this isn't proper.
01:09:48But I won't let him carry it alone.
01:09:51Whatever the consequences are,
01:09:52whatever people say,
01:09:53I'll face it with him.
01:09:54They're royal step-spreadings.
01:09:56How can this be allowed?
01:09:57They're not related by blood.
01:09:58Do you know how bad this will sound?
01:09:59The king will be furious.
01:10:05Fine.
01:10:06Since you say you can bear the consequences,
01:10:08I'll give you a chance.
01:10:10The border campaign is about to begin.
01:10:12Wayne, you will go to the front.
01:10:14If you return victorious within one year
01:10:16and prove you can protect the kingdom
01:10:18and Tess,
01:10:19I will recognize your relationship
01:10:20and allow you to marry.
01:10:22If the campaign fails,
01:10:23another heir will be chosen.
01:10:24Even if you return alive,
01:10:26you will never be with Tess again.
01:10:28I accept.
01:10:29No!
01:10:30That's the front line.
01:10:30You could die.
01:10:32Trust me.
01:10:33Just this once.
01:10:34Wait for me.
01:10:38So many knights and ministers
01:10:40have tried to court you.
01:10:41You really don't like any of them?
01:10:44Handsome,
01:10:45decorated,
01:10:46titled,
01:10:46everything!
01:10:54There has to be someone you like among them.
01:10:57Actually,
01:10:58I'm waiting for someone.
01:11:07It's been a year.
01:11:09Wayne still hasn't come back.
01:11:24It's me.
01:11:25I'm back.
01:11:37You really came back?
01:11:41I promised you.
01:11:47Father,
01:11:48I fulfilled the wager.
01:11:50The border has been pacified.
01:11:51The expedition returned victorious.
01:11:54Wayne Bennett,
01:11:55I officially name you
01:11:56Crown Prince
01:11:57and Heir to the Throne.
01:11:59One year from now,

01:12:02shall be wed.
