00:04Every full moon, a young male wolf sneaks into the pack of the female he's got his eye on,
00:10slings her onto his back and takes off the harder she fights.
00:14The more prized she is, and he's gotta give it all.
00:17He's gotta make off with her.
00:19A century-old mating ritual the pack calls the Moonlit Chase.
00:25Cain, I've been waiting for you for three years.
00:32Ilarra, don't listen to their bullshit.
00:34You ain't worthless.
00:35Soon as I've locked down the Greycliff Alpha seat, whether you can shift or not,
00:38I'm gonna carry you off under the full moon, by the old ways,
00:41and make you my one and only Luna, standing beside me, honored by every last wolf.
00:46For over a decade, my stepmother's been lacing my food with suppression herbs so I'd never awaken my wolf.
00:51They call me the Mute Wolf, the Shame of Cedar Fall.
00:54But I don't care about any of that.
00:56The only thing I care about is what you said.
00:58You're coming tonight, right?
01:06Allura, tonight's chase is about to start.
01:08Your room is too far back, hard to find.
01:11Aria's room is right by the entrance, the first thing Cain will see when he walks in.
01:18Just wait here.
01:19I'll have Aria block the door for you, and keep those random male wolves out.
01:23You've always had a weak constitution since you were little.
01:25You wouldn't be able to take the rough handling from those male wolves.
01:29With Aria's help, Cain will be able to carry you off without a hitch.
01:31Don't worry, Allura.
01:33I'll definitely hold the others back for you.
01:35Cain likes you so much, he'll be the first to find you for sure.
01:40I know what you're up to.
01:42But I trust Cain.
01:45He promised me.
01:47He won't mistake anyone else for me.
01:54Cain.
02:05He said, this is the token of our mate bond.
02:09When he bites his mark into the side of my neck, this bone plaque will bloom with blood-red patterns.
02:20Alpha, are we really going to just take Aria away later?
02:22Yes.
02:23She's highly fertile.
02:24I need her.
02:25What about Allura?
02:26She's still waiting.
02:27If she finds out-
02:28That shwee wolf who can't even shift?
02:30So what if she finds out the truth?
02:31What kind of trouble could she possibly cause?
02:34Just give her a dead bone plaque to keep her quiet.
02:37It's not like she can tell the difference anyway.
02:40Ha ha ha ha.
02:41Woo!
02:42Ha ha ha.
02:49Kain, you're finally here.
02:52Don't touch me.
02:53I'm not going with you.
02:57Aria, don't be difficult.
02:59I told you I'd come for you.
03:02Got her!
03:03The Alpha of Greycliff has taken Aria!
03:06Woo!
03:10Three years.
03:12Only to end up with a dead bone.
03:15He never planned on marrying me.
03:17He never intended to marry me.
03:19Getting close to me was just to stabilize Kang-do.
03:22To buy himself time.
03:23To secure his power.
03:25And once he was statled, a worthless wolf like me was meant to be discarded.
03:44Greycliff's Alpha passed up her.
03:46Let's crash the chase tonight.
03:48Ha ha ha ha.
03:53My stepmother set me up here.
03:55So this was the real trap all along.
04:09Who the hell are you?
04:11That's not how the moonlight chase works.
04:14You planned this.
04:15You're not here to claim me.
04:17You're here to kill me.
04:19Alera, you've always been such a sickly little thing.
04:23I'll make absolutely sure whoever comes for you goes easy on you.
04:34Don't bother asking who we are.
04:36You're just an abandoned, mute wolf now.
04:39Remember?
04:52That's why is he here.
05:11Don't bother asking whoo.
05:22Don't bother telling me.
05:23I'm like, oh!
05:24Don't bother taller than I'm down.
05:24Oh, baby!
05:43It's alright. I've been looking for you forever.
06:16Kiss, kiss, kiss!
06:18Kiss!
06:20Suddenly, I remembered three years ago. You crossed two mountain ranges like that, smiling. Your feet were bloody. Your boots
06:28were soaked through, but you didn't seem to care at all.
06:31What's a little pain? For my mate, I'd do it a hundred times over. I'd do it willingly.
06:36You were the great alpha of Greyclomb, yet you crossed the wilderness alone just to see me. You always said
06:41it wasn't far, but I knew, two pants a thousand miles apart, every step, on foot.
06:46I didn't want you to wait too long.
06:49Back then, holding that warm food, looking at your rain-soaked face, I was so sure. I thought you were
06:55the one, but now, you're carrying someone else, and you're smiling at her, just like you smiled at me back
07:01then.
07:03When did it all start to change? I think it was three years ago, the moment my father died.
07:09Allura, you've just lost your father. You look terrible. My stepmother, she has a sharp tongue. I can't bear to
07:17send you back to that. Stay here and rest. Let me go back first, settle everything, and I'll come for
07:22you. I promise.
07:24Back then, I believed you. I thought you actually cared. Later, I understood. It was all just lies. Every word
07:34of it.
07:36Aria's activities are mostly around this area. It's closer for her to stay here, just temporarily.
07:42Sister, don't overthink it. I'm just staying here temporarily. I'll move out as soon as I find a place.
07:49I didn't doubt it. Not once. I didn't know that temporary would last three years.
07:55What about Allura? If she finds out, she's gonna make a scene.
07:59She's all bark and no bite. She'll get over it soon. It was just a chaotic snatch bride night, a
08:03momentary slip.
08:04She cares about me too much to truly blame me.
08:07I'll just smooth things over with her later.
08:16Lucien? Lucien?
08:19Hmm.
08:20Hmm. So it really is you. You joined the trial tonight? Snatching a bride? Hmm. Nice.
08:28You've always kept to yourself. I thought you'd never settle for a mate or tie yourself down. Congratulations.
08:35We're heading out.
08:40Cain. My foot. It hurts a little. I think I hurt the wound on the way here.
08:45What's wrong? Did you hurt your wound on the way here?
08:48I don't know. It just hurts. Let's go. We need to reach your place before dawn.
08:58He really didn't recognize you.
09:04Let's go.
09:22My name is Lucien.
09:24Alpha of the Black Ridge.
09:35The Black Ridge has roamed the northern woods for generations.
09:39We are the most ferocious fighters among the three great wolf packs.
09:42Our territory is remote, cold, isolated from the world.
09:47Few outsiders ever set foot here.
09:49After I came of age, I gained a perception that sets me apart from other wolves.
09:54My sense of smell can detect something ordinary wolves cannot.
09:59The scent of a fate mark.
10:04I searched for that scent for over a decade.
10:07On you, I found it.
10:10Fate mark? He's been searching for me.
10:12For over a decade?
10:14When I was very young, the elders of my pack told me that on the day the White Moon Bloodline
10:19re-emerged,
10:20it would bring unparalleled prosperity to the Black Ridge.
10:23I've been waiting for that scent.
10:26Waiting for sixteen whole years.
10:29White Moon Bloodline?
10:30I've never heard that term before.
10:33Your birth mother came from a long-extinct snowfield wolf tribe.
10:37They were the most devoted believers of the Moon Goddess.
10:41In their veins flowed the most prival blessing of the Moon.
10:44So that's it.
10:45So I'm not a born failure.
10:48I'm not a mute wolf that even the Moon Goddess refused to wake.
10:51This whole time, it was her.
10:53My stepmother.
11:06In that moment, I felt a door quietly open in my consciousness.
11:15You saw it, didn't you?
11:16That's your bloodline.
11:18It's been waiting for you.
11:21Alara, listen to me.
11:22Whether you transform or not,
11:24you are my Luna.
11:29The Moon Goddess doesn't put the wrong mate into a wolf's nose.
11:32The moment I caught your scent,
11:34I knew.
11:35You're the one I've been waiting for my entire life.
11:43This is the first time in my life
11:45someone has chosen me so firmly.
11:48The first time someone has told me
11:49I'm not worthless.
11:52That I deserve to be loved.
12:08She should be here by now.
12:10Knowing her temper,
12:12she should be charging in right about now.
12:14She'll shift into her wolf form,
12:16launch at me,
12:17claw at me,
12:18bite me,
12:18demanding to know why I took Aria,
12:20why I lied to her for three years.
12:22She'll make a scene.
12:23She'll cry.
12:24She'll be hysterical.
12:25That's fine.
12:26I can take it all.
12:27Once she's done,
12:29I'll tell her the truth.
12:30I'll give her the bone token.
12:32She'll forgive me.
12:34After all,
12:35she's loved me for three years.
12:38Alpha,
12:38everything is arranged.
12:40Kangdu didn't follow.
12:41And the elders,
12:42they've all accepted Aria's status as the new Luna.
12:46Hmm.
12:46Alpha,
12:47you've been standing there all night.
12:48Maybe get some rest?
12:49As for Allura,
12:50even if she's coming,
12:51she won't get here until daybreak.
12:59Lord Cain!
13:00Something terrible has happened!
13:02Something terrible!
13:06Where is she?
13:06Where?
13:09Miss Alara.
13:10Miss Alara.
13:11She,
13:11she was taken
13:12by the Alf of Blackridge,
13:14right on the hunting grounds last night,
13:15in front of all three great packs!
13:24What did you say?
13:26It's true.
13:27That Lucian from Blackridge,
13:28no one knows why,
13:29he suddenly broke into Aria's cave
13:30and carried Miss Alara away on his back.
13:32She was covered in blood.
13:33She didn't scream.
13:33She didn't cry.
13:34She didn't fight back.
13:35She just lay on Lucian's back.
13:36And from beginning to end,
13:37she never once looked back towards Hans Kondo.
13:41No.
13:42This can't be.
13:43This can't be.
13:44She loved me so much.
13:45She waited for me for three years.
13:47How could she leave with another man?
13:48And of all people,
13:49that ruthless,
13:50murderous Blackridge Alpha.
13:51She should hate me.
13:52She should come tear me apart.
13:54She should make me give her an explanation.
13:55But she,
13:56she didn't even look back.
13:57Not once.
14:00Cain!
14:18This is real living bone.
14:21I carved it myself from my own rib.
14:24I thought,
14:24after she let out all her anger,
14:26I would take out the real bone token
14:28and tell her everything.
14:28I married Aria for Greyclom,
14:30for the entire northern pack.
14:32Once I took control of all the northern lands,
14:34I would welcome her back with the highest honors.
14:36Give her the only glory,
14:37the only place by my side.
14:39But she didn't even give me the chance to explain.
14:41She didn't even look back.
14:57It's okay.
14:59She has a fiery temper.
15:01Once she's done throwing her tantrum,
15:03she'll be fine when she calms down.
15:05I'll go bring her back.
15:32He's different from Cain.
15:33Cain was always staring at the back of my neck,
15:35at that clescent mark,
15:36waiting,
15:37hoping,
15:37that I would finally transform,
15:39that I would finally become his qualified Luna.
15:41But Lucian,
15:41he looks at me.
15:43Just me.
15:43Not the mark.
15:44Not the transformation.
15:45Just me.
15:47Whether I transform or not,
15:49in his eyes,
15:50I am just Allura.
16:08For be fair,
16:25the herb your stepmother used on you it's called moonfall vine starting from a very small dose
16:31and continuing for over a decade enough to make the wolf nature of even the purest blooded pup
16:36sleep forever if your birth mother were still alive she would never have let anyone lay a
16:41finger on you my stepmother said my birth mother lost her mind after i was born fled into the
16:49desolate northern borderlands and was never seen again i realize now that this was nothing but a
16:54fabricated tale she didn't just want to destroy me she also sought to tarnish my mother's reputation
17:08what's a little bitterness compared to that after three years of humiliation and betrayal
17:12this is already much sweeter chew a little every day in three months every last trace of the
17:17moonfall vine will be gone from your blood no rush i can wait
17:46what's wrong bad dream no i didn't have a bad dream
17:51she was calling me she told me to wake up
17:57the white moon bloodline suppressed for over a decade is finally awakening
18:17in the name of the moon goddess witness this bond from this moment on your blood is one
18:24your lives are one
18:32alara will she find out about this will she finally not be able to hold back anymore will
18:37she come storming in just like i imagined clawing at me demanding answers
19:09it's no use we've tried every earth
19:11nothing works the moon goddess does not recognize this bond this this is her punishment
19:17no i was chosen by kane himself how could the moon goddess reject us
19:39the moon goddess doesn't recognize it why is it because i lied to elmira because i broke my promise to
19:46her
19:52my dear son-in-law what brings you here where's aria why didn't she come with you where is elora
20:03oh don't even mention it ever since that night when the blackridge wolf took her away

20:22kane my dear son-in-law if you see elora please convince her to come back
20:26this home will always be her safe harbor
20:41lucian said no one from gray cliff sets foot in the north i'm not here for lucian i'm here for
20:47elora
20:50our luna sees no outsiders what did you say she's your luna of course from the very night lucian carried
20:59her back to blackridge she became our one and only luna the entire blackridge answers to no one but her
21:07the bond between her and me it was never real to begin with
21:13i don't even have the right to say i came for my mate
21:27there's no place for me there anymore
21:38what's wrong my bones so itchy
21:46don't be afraid i'm here
21:50i've always been here
22:06the white moon wolf i'd waited 16 years for was finally awake
22:11don't be afraid
22:17don't be afraid
22:38don't be afraid
22:45Cain, look at me. I am not worthless. I am the moon goddess you will never be worthy of.
23:14I've been looking for you, for a very long time.
23:36She did it.
23:46I lost her. I lost her a long time ago. I just didn't want to believe it.
24:00Aria left Greyclo after her mate Mark festered. They say she ran off with the alpha of a rogue
24:06pack. Never came back. My stepmother came to Greyclo half to make trouble. More times than I can count.
24:15My mother always turned her away at the gate.
24:17And for three years, I've been looking for her. Aria. I never stopped.
24:33She's his. She's been his all along.
24:38Cain.
24:40Lara, I-I...
24:42Are you here for business? Or just passing through?
24:45I've been looking for you. For three years.
24:48Now that you've found me, then what?
24:54Cain. You are the alpha of Greyclaw. I am the Luna of Blackridge.
24:58From the moment you offered the false bone token, there was never anything left between us but pack politics.
25:10Once, she smiled at me like that. But now, that smile is no longer mine.
25:16If you're interested in Blackridge goods, you can check the main stall.
25:35In the end, I was still too late.
25:40I've only seen people who've made me셔야 why because we so badly, uh, hate.
25:42I've seen a sequester.
25:42But I've seen a teacher if something wants.
25:42It's way very easy by age when I show up for a matter of time.
25:45I'll see a second bite.
25:45Duringcool life and your disciple can be tested similar to knots.
