00:09I am the lowest Omega in the Empire, yet I saved the Empire's Supreme Ruler.
00:22At the time, looking at the giant wolf with mud-clotted Fleur, I thought he was just a
00:27rogue cast out by his own pack. At the entrance of the palace slave quarters, I was bent over the
00:35wash base, scrubbing clothes by hand. A huge crashing sound startled me.
00:42Stuart Mara? Is that you? I walked out, thinking Stuart Mara was scolding a slave again.
00:48But when I pushed the door open, I saw a giant wolf lying on the ground,
00:52with a wound spanning half its body, bleeding continuously. I was so startled I nearly cried
00:58out. The wolf was so covered in dirt that its original fur color was almost unrecognizable.
01:04My heart ached with pity, and my eyes pricked with tears.
01:07Did some other pack abandon you? Did you run here?
01:10The giant wolf opened its golden-slip-pupiled eyes and a menacing growl reverberated in its throat,
01:16but due to weakness, it only let out a soft whimper.
01:19I was a little scared, but I still took out the small piece of bread and offered it to the
01:24giant
01:24wolf's mouth. The giant wolf glanced at it and turned its head away. I stroked its head.
01:30I know wolves eat meat, but this is all I've got. Please make do. The giant wolf impatently opened
01:37its eyes and sniffed the bread. Looking at my skinny myself, it finally lowered its head and swallowed it
01:44in one gulp. I immediately smiled and stroked its big head. Good boy.
01:53It took everything I had to drag the giant wolf inside. Just as I settled it, I heard a clamorous
02:00of voices outside. I peeked through the crack in the door. The royal investigators had arrived.
02:06Seal every gate. No one is permitted to leave the premises. Not a soul.
02:12My heart lunged, and I quickly cowered into the shadows of the corner.
02:18Outside the wall, the leader of the investigative soldiers was talking to his subordinates.
02:25Search quickly. Duke Kale trespassed into the sacred grounds of the wolf pack, injured an elder,
02:31and is to be arrested by order of Princess Lyra. His subordinates seemed a bit confused.
02:37Captain, Duke Kale always operates within his own territory. How could he suddenly trespass
02:42on sacred grounds? What if we're chasing the wrong lead? Quiet! Don't ask questions you shouldn't.
02:47The princess order is here. Just search.
02:57Luckily, the investigator's footsteps outside did not come any closer. I took a moment to
03:03steady my racing heart. Duke Kale is incredibly powerful. Even the wolf king treats him with
03:09deference. Yet Princess Lyra has ordered his arrest. If anyone finds out I know anything about this,
03:16I'll lose my life. At the time, I had no idea that the giant wolf before me was none other
03:22than Duke
03:23Kale, the very man Princess Lyra was hunting. At the ball, he had refused Lyra's advances and was
03:29set up in retaliation. He drank wine that had been tampered with, and the rising full moon triggered an
03:40involuntary, beastly shift. But I only took him for a rogue who had not yet learned how to shift at
03:48will.
03:52I took the opportunity to haul the wounded wolf into a remote storage closet.
03:58You're lucky you found me. I knelt beside him to examine his injuries.
04:04The cut is deep. If this keeps up, it won't end well. Rest here for a bit. I'll be right
04:08back.
04:09In the dim communal sleeping quarters of the slave camp, I gently pushed open the door.
04:14Several slaves inside lay sound asleep on their beds. I crept to my tartar bedded and fished a
04:20vial of healing potion from its hidden nook. Once I had the bottle in hand, I cautiously scanned the
04:25room to make sure no one had been awakened. Then I slipped back out and ran at once toward the
04:30room
04:30where I had hidden the giant wolf. Back in the utility room, the giant wolf lay weakly on the
04:40hay. I went over and carefully shifted his hulking frame into a comfortable position.
04:45I uncapped the bottle and carefully poured the healing potion over his wound.
04:51The giant wolf whimpered in pain. Bear with it. I coaxed. After applying the medicine,
04:57I found some clean strips of cloth in the utility room. Clumsily but gently, I bandaged his wound.
05:05Then I picked up a tartar towel.
05:12You stay put. I'm going to wash up.
05:14The utility room was cluttered with items. Yet it had everything.
05:20I pulled out a wooden tub, filled it with water, and then, with my back to the giant wolf,
05:27I took off my clothes. The giant wolf watched this time, and his golden eyes too ran brend with heat.
05:34The slave camp gate was kicked open. The investigators, with a group of their subordinates,
05:39entered the yard, and the torchlight instantly illuminated the surroundings. I jumped in surprise,
05:45trembling and hiding in the wooden tub. Seeing the giant wolf next to me, I suppressed my fear
05:52and put a finger to my lips. Don't make a sound. The giant wolf also seemed to know the situation
05:57was urgent, but everyone had forgotten that today was the full moon night. Omegas weren't as affected
06:03by the full moon, but pure blood wolves of kind could hardly resist it. The giant wolf tried its best
06:10to endure the intense pain and the savage instinct rising inside him. Its huge paw slammed into the
06:17water. With a splash, the beast tumbled heavily into the wooden tub. The leader of the investigators roared.
06:32The shadow of a scout crept closer and closer. I glanced at the giant wolf still struggling in pain
06:38in the water, then quickly looked out the window. Forget it. I took a deep breath, dragged the wolf
06:45under the water, and pinned its head beneath the surface. The giant wolf's consciousness was a bit
06:50glubby. It only felt that the water seemed to be trying to harm it. So a red light flashed around
06:56its
06:56body, its fur dissolved, its bones contorting and re-informing, grotesquely beneath the waves.
07:03The giant wolf instantly transformed into Duke Kale, who had broad shoulders,
07:07a narrow waist, and was completely naked. The water surged violently. I couldn't hold my breath for
07:11a moment, and the pain of suffocation made me intentively grab the man's shoulders. Kale saw
07:15that I was about to drown, so he supported my waist with one hand and pulled me up through the
07:20surface
07:20with him. Kale's hot breath sprayed against my ear, causing a tingling sensation all over me.
07:26My eyes were hazy, and my gaze lingued on the man's well-defined chest. Good heavens, the man I'd nearly
07:32drowned with was breathtakingly sculpted, with defined abdominal muscles. Before I could fully
07:37process it, bang, a loud noise, the storage room door was kicked open. Princess Lyra walked in,
07:47surrounded by a group of attendants. Has Duke Kale been found? The leader immediately lowered his head
07:52and explained it was a false alarm. Lyra scanned me, covered in dirt, then glanced at the gray wolf
07:57wagging its tail and pinched her nose in disgust. Disgusting, concerning with a filthy brute and
08:02resting of muck. I cannot take it anymore. I'm leaving here. She immediately took two steps back
08:06and sharply ordered someone to investigate it elsewhere. The leader, immediately sad in relief,
08:13snatched the treasured sword from the giant wolf's mouth and turned to leave. My tense heart suddenly
08:18relaxed, and I looked at the culprit. The giant wolf noticed me looking at it. Its wagging tail
08:23immediately stopped its indignified air looking elsewhere. All right, let's go get you cleaned up.
08:30The slave camp had a bathhouse, and it was already well past the usual bathing time. Usually,
08:35I preferred to use the wooden tub in the utility room, but that tub had just been through a commotion
08:40and wasn't very usable now. I took the giant wolf into the bathhouse, and to carefully wash,
08:45I realized its coat wasn't dingy gray but luster and silver, so I staunt him him snowy.
08:51You're not some runaway prince or something, are you? The wolf rolled its golden eyes at me,
08:59lying on the ground, still looking limbless. I carefree continued to talk to myself. Whether
09:05you're a prince or moo, it's fine. I don't even know your names. Since you're some a-white,
09:09I'll call you Snowy for now. As I spoke, her nose tingled, and tears fell onto his freshly washed fur.
09:20Actually, I'm just as pitiful as you are. I'm Maeve. My parents dated on my elder sister so
09:26fiercely they sold me into slavery to fund her match with a wealthy noble. So, just like you,
09:31I'm unwanted. From now on, shall we live together? I hugged Snowy, tears silently streaming from my eyes,
09:37completely unaware that Snowy's golden pupils had subtly contract, and his gaze had fallen on my
09:42hands which were covered in wounds. A faint, unreadable spark flickered in his amber irises.
09:46I took Snowy back to my dwelling. I retrieved the potion that had been
09:50clearlessly thawed into the corner in my earlier panic, and re-bandaged the wounds that had gotten wet.
09:56After bandaging the wounds, I couldn't hold on any longer, and collapsed into the haystack,
10:00falling asleep. In my dream, I was freezing cold all over, grongily curled into a ball.
10:05Just as I was about to freeze to death, a scorching hot object pressed against me.
10:09Half asleep, half awake, I saw that familiar handsome face again. My honed consciously
10:13reached for his abdomen, and feeling was still familiar.
10:17Am I dreaming? What a great body.
10:21This time, I accidentally spoke my inner thoughts aloud. After speaking, I grongily fell asleep again.
10:28Of course, I didn't know that when I touched this Imperial Palace nobleman like that,
10:32his body trembled, and the tips of his ears flushed bright remsen.
10:36He forcefully suppressed the restlessness and wildness within him,
10:41letting a little slave like me touch him so brazenly.
10:43Later, it seemed the fever was really severe. In my Danes, I heard the room door open and then close.
10:49A gust of cold wind swept in. I shivered, and then completely passed on.
10:56The next morning, I woke up groggily and realized I had a fever. The spot beside me had been empty
11:02for a long time, so I guessed he had already left much earlier. I struggled to get out of
11:07bed and saw Snowy lying limply beside the hay bale, his fur disheveled and covered in mud,
11:11his two large paws protecting a pack of medicine. I spotted the exclusive royal healer's wax seal and
11:16was stunned. This wolf I'd known barely a day had snuck into the palace just to fetch me curative herbs.
11:21My nose tingled with emotion, and I hugged the wolf, kissing its face.
11:25Thank you. The wolf's heart instantly beat a little faster,
11:28and it awkwardly nudged the medicine pack with its nose. I didn't hesitate and took the medicine
11:33directly, regaining my strength shortly after. I walked over to Snowy and pulled a faded drink
11:39from my undergarments. As if guessing what I was about to do, Snowy reluctantly took two steps back.
11:46Why are you shying away? I bought this when I had a day off,
11:49but I never had a chance to use it. My fingers quickly braided the red string into a collar,
11:54which I then forcibly put on Snowy. This cord marks you as mine. You're my wolf now.
11:59Snowy, I won't forget your life-saving kindness. From now on I'll protect you in this slave camp.
12:04Snowy stiffened all over and let out a win, seemingly resisting, but thankfully,
12:08in the end it didn't struggle free, just quietly gazed at me. That night, the full moon still hung high
12:13in
12:13the sky. Snowy gazed at the full moon, then amidst a series of suppressed gasps, transformed into human
12:18form. Under the moonlight, his silvery white hair was striking, and his features were deep and chiseled.
12:24His gaze towards me carried a smile. He retrieved the clothes hidden in the corner,
12:29unfashioned an accessory from them, gently placed it by my pillow, and then quietly departed.
12:37Wake up slaves. Another day of labor begins. The next day, the broadcast in the slave camp
12:43woke me up. Snowy? I got up and subconsciously looked for that white figure. I sat up and looked
12:48around, confirming that Snowy was really gone. In my panic, I suddenly caught sight of an exquisitely
12:54crafted necklace lying by the pillow. The chain held a gigantic canine tooth connected to the rest of the
13:00chain with gems. Even with my lack of experience, I could tell this item was worth a fortune.
13:06I held the necklace, my mind buzzing. Is it possible Snowy is some royal prince?
13:12Thinking of this, I quickly shook my head. I'm just a lowly omega, a slave. How could a prince
13:19endure such crude care from me? The more I thought about it, the more convinced I became.
13:28I finally decided to keep the necklace Sirkin close to me, otherwise Amara the Steward saw it,
13:33it would be taken away. Moments later, shocking news spread through the camp.
13:42The missing Duke Kale had come back from disappearance!
13:49Duke Kale is back. I heard that this person, whose power is compared to that of the Empire's ruler,
13:56immediately targeted Princess Lila upon his return, arranged to dispatch her to a rival
14:00region as a political bride to settle border hostilities. However, the struggles of these
14:05powerful figures have nothing to do with me. Every day, I worry about Snowy. His back injury hasn't
14:12healed yet, and those investigators still haven't left completely. What if he's caught? He leaves in
14:17such a hurry. Half a month later, another good piece of news arrived from the palace.
14:22That cold-blooded and ruthless Duke Kale is getting married, said the little slave beside me, scrubbing
14:28clothes, her eyes shining. I heard he personally went to propose. I heard he drove a carriage full of
14:33fresh flowers and brought the brightest ring just to get a glimpse of that girl. My hands continued
14:38scrubbing clothes. What does that have it do with us? The little slave leaned in and whispered,
14:45mysteriously. That family has the same surname as you. The woman he planned to abide was called Iris.
14:51My mind went blank. Iris? Isn't that my twin sister? I didn't know the reason. I just felt strange in
14:59my heart. Didn't she marry into nobility? How did the Duke take an eye interest her?
15:07The little slave nudged me. Maeve, what are you spatting out for? I came back to my senses,
15:13looking at the various cuts and wounds on my hands, feeling a mix of emotions. But I was sent into
15:18the
15:18slave camp for my sister in the first place. At least she'll have a good life now. It's nothing,
15:25I'm sure they'll live happily. I forced a bitter smile and went back to scrubbing laundry. In the
15:30days leading up to the wedding, the entire empire was discussing Duke Kale's marriage. Everyone said
15:36that the girl was just an ordinary person, even an omega, and that she and Duke Kale were like heaven
15:41and earth. He didn't even glance at the imperial princess, who was originally the most suitable match.
15:48Lying on my bed, I thought of Snowy inside. Duke Kyle is so good to the one he loves. I
15:53wonder
15:54when love like that will ever find me. Little did I know, a farce was unfolding within the castle at
15:59this very moment. After the party, inside the luxuriously decorated room, Iris was wearing a
16:07splendid gown, her hands clothed in delicate, white lace gloves, deliberately crossed on her lap,
16:13her eyes lowered in practice shyness. Kale looked at the face identical to mine, suppressing a strange
16:18feeling in his heart. He lowered his gaze, took her hand, and removed the glove, revealed the bandage
16:24underneath. How's the burn on your hand? Iris secretly rejoiced, thinking to herself,
16:28the self-inflicted injury trick really works. As long as it can bring blessings and and wand off
16:32harm for the Duke, this is nothing. Kale held those hands with a touch of pity, but his movement froze
16:39for a seckel second. Something's off. Scars can be forged, but skeletal structure never lies. My hands
16:46worked all day in the slave camp, and my knuckles were already slightly deformed, something a burn
16:51couldn't cover. This person in front of him is not that little slave. A cold glint flashed in Kale's
16:57eyes. He abruptly pulled his hand back, made an excuse about urgent military affairs, and went to the study
17:02without looking back. After that day, Kale never touched her again. Iris didn't give up. To solidify her image
17:08as a kind person, she feigned acts of benevolence. She gave alms to beggars on Kale's regular route,
17:13but as soon as he turned the corner, she immediately got up, called for someone to bring clean water,
17:18and repeatedly washed her hands. A stray dog wagged its tail and approached her feet. Her features
17:23turned sour, and she lashed out, took the stray dog aside, her face full of impolence. This scene was
17:28coincidentally witnessed by Kale, who had turned back. He became even more certain that this person was
17:33definitely not the kind Omega he was looking for. Back at the Duke's castle, Kale
17:37decided to perform one last verification. He took the beloved Red Thring and went to Iris' room.
17:45He happened to saw her slap a servant because the tea she had poured was slightly too hot.
17:51What a display of power, madam. A cold voice rang out from outside the door.
17:59Kale stepped through the door, glanced at the servant on the ground, gave a look,
18:03and the servant immediately scrambled away. This is what you gave me in the past,
18:08representing our affection. I've kept it close to me all this time, do you still remember?
18:12Iris glanced at the worn red's thread, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes.
18:17My dear, this item is crude and degrading, completely unfit for you. I'll have someone make you another one.
18:23Crude, degrading, and unfit for me. Kale clenched his hands, turned, and left indignantly.
18:31The old man following closely behind him said,
18:34What are your orders, Duke?
18:35Dig into every detail of their household. I want every stone turned.
18:38In the slave camp, I was holding a basin of cold water, preparing to wash the thick clothes changed out
18:43by the masters in the palace.
18:45Suddenly, my foot slipped, and I stumbled, falling heavily to the ground. The wooden baskin crashed to the ground, and
18:53my chest suddenly felt a chill.
18:55The canine tooth necklace I had kept close to me slipped out from under my collar, hitting the ground with
19:00a crisp sound.
19:04You're courting death!
19:06Steward Mara is sediently flew into a rage and in her fury swing the bamboo stick hard at me. The
19:11pain and cold almost made me hallucinate.
19:14I seemed to see those golden defiant beast eyes smiling at me.
19:17Snowy, is that you?
19:19Another whip slashed through the air, and I finally couldn't hold on any longer and passed out.
19:24Steward Mara spat in my direction, then looked at me with an expression as if I were trash.
19:29Bitch! Throw her into that storage room.
19:32That room is drafty on all sides, and we shall see if the frigid knight claims her life.
19:37I clutched the canine tooth pendant tightly in my hand, its sharp tip almost piercing my skin, but I still
19:43refused to let go.
19:44The group of people following the steward's orders had no choice but to throw me into the storage room like
19:49a piece of garbage.
19:50Just when I thought I was about to die, a loud bang broke the silence.
19:54The gate of the slave camp was kicked open.
19:56The camp guards barely had time to unshave their blades, before a rearing steed sent them flying.
20:01Coughing up blood.
20:03Who?!
20:04Recognizing the newcomer as Duke Kale,
20:07Stuart Mara, who had just been shouting, immediately fell silent.
20:10Then, a malicious these tuddly occurred to her.
20:13Princess Lyra had always been infatuated with Kale,
20:16and Duke Kale's private intration into the palace was now a perfect handle for her.
20:20Amid the Thurvitrot, she looked agamorbine attendant who on-dicompanied her,
20:24immediately her to go out through the side door and fetch Princess Lyra.
20:28Duke Kale didn't notice these small movements.
20:30He dismounted from his horse, his eyes gloomily fixed on the ice shards mixed with
20:35bloody water by the pond.
20:36Rage surged within him, and a low growl the wave escaped throat.
20:40Where is Maeve?
20:44At the sound of my name, Stuart Mara's knees buckled and she dropped to the ground.
20:49Y-Y-Your Grace, who are you looking for?
20:52I'm asking you, where is Maeve?
20:54Before he finished speaking, Kale kicked the other person's shoulder, sending them sprawling to the
20:59ground.
21:00She stole treasures from the palace. According to the rules, she's now being held in the storage room.
21:07As early as when Kale rode his horse and ticked open the gates of the slave camp,
21:11I vaguely heard the commotion outside. It's just that I was really too cold and too much in pain.
21:17Those sounds were distant from me, as if through a layer of fog, until BOOM!
21:22I struggled to open my eyes. I saw a tall and upright figure standing backlit at the doorway.
21:28That silhouette was exactly like the handsome man in my dreams, and it also overlapped with
21:33the giant white wolf. In a trance, I reached out my hand.
21:37Snowy, you're back.
21:38The figure at the door trembled and stowed forward to take my hand.
21:42I'm sorry I'm late.
21:44Kale's voice caught as he took off his cloak and carefully wrapped me in it.
21:47He took off his long robe and carefully wrapped me in it.
21:50Warmth instantly enveloped me, and the familiar scent made me completely fall into unconsciousness.
21:55However, the moment he stepped out of the storeroom, outside the slave camp,
22:00the sound of heavy armored footsteps was heard.
22:02Princess Lyra actually personally brought her guard knights and surrounded the slave camp.
22:07Duke Kale, have you gone mad? Just for an Omega, you actually trespassed into the palace.
22:12Stuart Mara, who was beside them, seeing Kale holding me in his arms, immediately foresaw his own fate.
22:19Your Highness, Maeve first stole treasures from the palace. I handled it according to the rules,
22:25but the Duke personally came to claim her. I really couldn't stop him.
22:30Stealing palace treasures, Princess Lyra sneered.
22:33Kale, did you hear that? Her hands are not clean. She committed a capital crime.
22:38Hand this thief over to me to face execution.
22:47Death penalty.
22:49Kale drew his sword from his waist with one hand, the blade pointing directly at Lyra.
22:53That pendant you claim she stole is my betrothal token, set around my own milk tooth.
22:57Kale's voice echoed throughout the slave camp.
22:59She saved my life. Today, whoever dares to harm her in the slightest,
23:04should any lay a hand on her, they shall face my sword.
23:07Lyra's face was ashen, and the guard knights, intimidated by his killing impext,
23:12dared not move. Kale ignored everyone, sheathed his sword, and holding me,
23:16walked straight out of the slave camp. I thought I was going to die,
23:20but the violent jolting beneath me brought me back to consciousness.
23:23I desperately tried to open my eyes, but couldn't.
23:27Maeve, don't sleep.
23:28Someone growled in my ear, their voice extremely harky and tinged with fear.
23:32Without thinking much about who it was, I completely plunged into darkness.
23:36I don't know how long passed, but a sharp pain startled me awake.
23:40Someone was touching my hand. I suddenly opened my eyes.
23:44Above me was a magnificent sheer bed canopy, and beneath me was soft cotton bedding.
23:49I was shocked. This wasn't the slave camp.
23:51Don't move.
23:54I stiffly turned my head. A man was sitting beside the bed.
23:58The man had silver hair and golden vertical peoples,
24:01exactly like the handsome man in my dreams. I subconsciously looked at his abdomen.
24:08You, you, what are you?
24:10Kale chuckled at my words and spoke.
24:13Maeve, look clearly. I am Duke Kale.
24:16Duke Kale. That cold-faced Asherah who kills without batting an eyeblish.
24:20The one who married my sister half a weeks ago. Duke Kale.
24:27I must have frozen my brain to think Duke Kale was my dream man.
24:31It must be that I heard too much of those gossips that I kept dreaming of him.
24:35At that moment, I scrambled out of the mattress and dropped to my knees in a rush.
24:39Please forgive my offense, your grace.
24:42Kale seeing me like this, his eyes darkened. He merely assumed I had become timid from long-term
24:48torment in the slave camp, and his tone involuntarily softened.
24:52Don't be afraid. This is my castle. With me here, no one dares to lay a finger on you.
24:57As soon as he said that, I felt no peace of mind at all.
25:00Only a cold sweat breaking out all over my body. My sister has always be proud and easily jealous.
25:06If she were to catch us, she would surely flay me alive.
25:10Duke. Duke. I swallowed, my voice trembling.
25:14I'm just an Omega and even a slave. I really don't deserve to sleep here.
25:19If the madam knew, I feared rumors would spread. Hearing me mention Iris, he let out a cold snuff.
25:25Her? An imposter. Don't mention her in my presence.
25:30I was startled. An imposter? Before I could ponder further, footsteps came from outside the door.
25:36Bang! The door was pushed open forcefully. The servant accompanying her had just looked anxious,
25:42and one even had a fresh slap mark on her face.
25:44My dear, I heard you brought a woo- Her voice abruptly stopped the moment she saw me.
25:49I shrunk back in the covers, understanding her murderous expression, and my heart sank.
25:55Mayave!
25:56Mayave!
25:56I ininstatively responded.
25:58S-sister.
25:59That address completely set Iris off.
26:02Mayave, have you no shame!
26:04Mom and Dad sent you to the palace and his moe first loudly.
26:07And you actually learned a whole host of seductive tricks!
26:11To sneak into your brother-in-law's bed and seduce him!
26:13Iris took a few boar and rasted her hand about to slap me.
26:20Kale quickly grabbed her hand.
26:22What are you doing?!
26:23A serious roar stasogged Elida's movements.
26:26Elida shivered in fright. Her arrogant demeanor immediately diminishing by more than half.
26:31Duke! She's my sister! I thought she'd behave herself in the palace,
26:36but I never expected her to shamelessly seduce you!
26:39Crack! The sound echoed as her wrist bone snapped clean.
26:42Kale crushed Iris's wrist bone. Iris screamed, cold sweat pouring down from the pain.
26:48You... What are you doing?!
26:50Shut up! Who gave you permission to hit her?
26:53At his command, Iris was dragged out, and silence returned to the room.
26:58I stared blankly at everything happening before me.
27:01Climb into your brother-in-law's bed.
27:03An enormous sense of guilt almost drowned me, and I knew I couldn't continue like this.
27:09As night fell, Kale was urgently summoned to the palace. I knew this was an opportunity. I endured the
27:16pain and got out of bed, leaving a letter. Dear Duke Kale, thank you for sparing my life. I beg
27:22forgiveness for my intrusion, and I sincerely wish you and my sister a fulfilling life together.
27:26After writing, I placed the canine-tooth pendant on the paper and turned to leave.
27:30The Duke's castle was heavily guarded, but having lived in the slave camp for so many years,
27:36I had my ways. Against the evening breeze, I walked aimlessly down the street.
27:41Perhaps during the day, I could find a job, before my envisioned new future could even begin.
27:46Duke Kale, riding a magnificent horse, blocked my path. Kale looked down at me. The letter in his hand
27:53crumpled. B-b-brother-in-law!
27:57Maeve, how dare you call me brother-in-law!
28:03Kale kept approaching, and I was cornered. I put my hand on his chest, closed my eyes.
28:11Duke, mind your manners! I'm your sister-in-law!
28:14As soon as I said that, the air around us seemed to fall silent. The knights who had
28:18followed all gasped in unison. Kale's veins bulged as he grabbed my wrist and pinned me against the
28:23wall. Iris is an imposter. Does she even deserve to be my wife?
28:28But you swore an oath in the Great Hall. Everyone saw you two as a couple.
28:32That's because I recognized the wrong person. Kyle, furious, laughed instead.
28:37I'm not looking for someone so mean and hypocritical. I'm looking for the
28:40person who rescued me from the slave camp back then. My mind buzzed.
28:45Slave camp. Rescued? Wasn't that Snowy? My gaze shifted to Kale's head.
28:50On it was a head of silver hair, exactly like Snowy's fur.
28:54My heart began to pound with shock. He... he's Snowy.
28:58Snowy isn't a prince. He's a duke. No.
29:02That won't work either. I'm an Omega. You're an Alpha.
29:06Kyle tornly tore open his collar. You shameless rug!
29:09Kyle seemed to be at his wit... Open your eyes!
29:11...from anger. I slightly opened eyes and saw the red hand he was holding in his string.
29:17That was the collar I had braided for Snowy. This... I... I didn't know back then.
29:23I quickly averted my gaze. Kale cupped my chin and turned my face back to him.
29:27You said you'd protect me back at the slave chanters. Are you going back on your word?
29:35I froze in the corner for a long time, unable to recover. The dirty wolf I saved that day was
29:41Duke Kale, and it was also him who was pressed tightly against me in the wooden barrel. I...
29:45I had even touched him all over without a shred of shame. Seeing that I couldn't accept it for a
29:51while, he simply transformed directly into his wolf form. The huge wolf head still had that conspicuous
29:57red string. Now I could no longer deceive myself. My legs went weak, and I slid down the wall to
30:03sit
30:03on the ground. A faint wimmer escaped his muzzle. Kale slowly walked closer with his ears down.
30:09His large wolf head gently nuzzling me. My nose suddenly sting, and varium bitter
30:15motions rushed to my nose. When I was beaten in the slave camp, I didn't cry. When I washed blankets
30:20in ice water, I didn't cry. But now, seeing him transform into a wolf on the street,
30:25just to prove his identity to me. The tears just spilled over.
30:29Are you stupid? You're a Duke! Why bother doing this for me?
30:33Kale let a muffled sound from his throat, snuggled closer into my arm, and gently tipped away my tears.
30:38I reached out and hugged his big head, bearing it near his neck, and burst out laughing.
30:42You're stuck with me forever. No escaping now.
30:45Late at night, I was carried with back to the castle Kale, who was transformed back into human form.
30:51Soon entered Great Hall, Iris cried, and tried to rush over. But then she saw me in Kale's arms,
30:57and looked like she was about to have a tantrum.
30:59You stole another person's life-saving merit, and fraudulently claimed the title of Duchess.
31:05Strip her of her luxurious clothes, and take away her title of Duchess. Expels her from the Duke's
31:10castle immediately. Listen up, everyone. From today onwards, she is the Duchess, the mistress of the castle.
31:25The next morning, I snuggled up to the man beside me. Above me, Kale's low, teasing chuckle came.
31:32His clothes were slightly open, and his fingertips were cresting the old red string I gave him.
31:38Madam, after our night of passion, why are you shy today?
31:42I instantly blushed, pulling the brune-quelt over my face.
31:45Your grace holds such a high position. How can you say such things? Kale leaned closer,
31:51his warm breath enveloping my brows and eyes, chucking softly.
31:55In our own bed, with my beloved beside me, who dares to fault me besides you? But you,
32:00have you forgotten when you laid your hands on me back in the slave pamp?
32:03I immediately blushed and said nothing. Early that morning, Kale took the cosmetics commonly
32:08used by women, and clumsily applied them to my face. How could his hands accustomed to holding a
32:13sword, Yyrtaum, know how to apply such things? I couldn't stop laughing at my reflection in the
32:18bronze mirror, but Kale gently kissed my temple. Every version of you is the love of my life.
32:24Their tender moment was interrupted by an urgent report from the butler. An urgent summons came
32:29from the palace. It turned out that the border war was tense, and Princess Layera's diplomac mission
32:35previously decided by the court was at a stalemate. The Wolf King urgently summoned Duke Kale to the
32:41palace for a discussion. A cold, glimped glance flashed in Kale's eyes, knowing all of the other
32:46party's provocations. Stay here and wait for me. Lyra is arrogant, and I will get back everything she
32:53weighs you. As soon as he left, a handwritten letter from his parents arrived at his residence.
32:58Reading the contents of the letter, every sentence expressed regret. The butler warned of a trick,
33:04but I had already suspected as much. Back then, they sold me into a slave camp for my sister.
33:09How could they genuinely repent now? I want one last meal to completely this family tide.
33:16Prepare the carriage. The knights are waiting outside for my command.
33:23When I got home, my parents knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly. My former sister,
33:28dressed in crost clothes with disheveled hair, violently slapped herself in front of me.
33:33Seeing them like this, most of the resentment in my heart dissipated,
33:36leaving only a tris of sadness. Once this feast ends, all debts between us are settled.
33:42From now on, you're on your own. The table was laden with all my favorite dishes.
33:47My father raised his wine glass, wanting to persuade me to have a drink.
33:51Having survived in slave camps for so many years, with just one glance,
33:55I detected the deadly poison hidden in the wine. Sadness resurfaced. Looking at the facade of warmth
34:02they had created, I had nothing to say. Seeing that I was hesitant to drink, Alara simply tore off
34:09her disguise and openly pressured me. Their warm pretense shattered instantly. The three descended on me,
34:15pinning my limbs to force deadly poison down my throat. I was doomed.
34:23At the critical moment. Bang! The dilapidated gate was suddenly kicked open. Kale, holding a bow and
34:29arrow, was filled with murderous intent. An arrow whistled through the air and buried itself straight
34:35through Iris' wrist. The wine glass fell to the ground and shattered. The wine splattered onto the blue
34:40tricks, sickling and bubbling, its potent poison a horrifying sight. Knights swarmed in, stepping
34:45forward to pin several people to the ground. Kale completely ignored the family kneeling and
34:50begging for mercy. Quickly stepping forward to embrace me. I'm sorry I'm late. With blades
34:55about to be drawn, Alita knelt and frantically begged for mercy. I watched coldly, then raised my
35:00hand and delivered two slaps. Then I spoke calmly and decided their fate. Spare their lives, but send
35:07them to the slave camps to endure the same torment I once suffered. Kale, of course, listened to me.
35:12Then he picked me up horizontally, swung onto his horse. Once all those obstacles are resolved,
35:18I will definitely hold a grander wedding and tell everyone that you are my only true love.
35:24Listening to his promise, I nestled securely in his embrace.
35:28But just as we were about to reach the royal palace, a cold arrow suddenly struck. In the shadows
35:34of the long street, Lyra, who was supposed to be entertaining foreign anobides, was dressed in
35:38black, her face filled with madness. She was jealous that I took Kale, so she drew her bowstring taut.
35:44Her poisoned arrow locked onto my heart. You vile wench! In a flash, Kale unhesitatingly turned,
35:51shielding me tightly in his arms. The sharp arrow pierced his chest. Warm blood gushed out,
35:56splattering all over my face.
36:02I trembled, reaching out to fate to cover his gushing wound. Tears welling up. Princess Liva
36:07laughed maniacally. The knights fought desperately to protect us, controlling Lyra amidst the clash
36:12of weapons. Kale's face was ashen, his breath weak. My life has belonged to you ever since you
36:18saved me. I would never regret giving my life to keep you safe. Tears flowed controllably. Kale,
36:24I love you. I won't let you die. You promised me you'd tell the whole world you love me most.
36:29You
36:29can't leave me. The man in my arms suddenly gave a light cough, slowly opened his eyes,
36:35a mischievous smile in their depths. Did you just say you like me? Did I hear you correctly?
36:40It turned out the poisoned arrow had narrowly missed his heart. He was severely injured and weak,
36:45but not in mortal danger. I was both angry and relieved, and quickly called for help. After diagnosis,
36:52it was confirmed he only needed more rest to fully recover. Meanwhile, Lyra was defeated and captured,
36:58her hair diswevelled. Kale, enduring his pain. Throw her into the palace dungeon.
37:04That night, the Wolf King issued orders overnight. Fearing Kale's power and to appease his rage,
37:10the Wolf King stripped Lyra of her royal title, exiled her from the Wolf Clan, and marked her as a
37:16feral outcast. Not only that, to show favor and pacify the Duke, the Emperor personally blessed Kale and me.
37:21The Omega everyone once looked down of had finally risen. No one would ever look down of me again.
37:27Once his injuries had somewhat healed, Kale publicly declared his intention to formally marry me.
37:32Almost every fluential Wolf Kane in the kingdom, there were still some present who looked down on
37:36Omegas. Sjengmai Orange was humble, weipiladzujonzujur, and against ancestral customs. Kale publicly deflated the Wolf King's personal decree.
37:45The Wolf King himself has blessed our union. Should you have any further objections?
37:57Night fried the room. Kale approached step by step, his eyes full of desire and tenderness.
38:02The formalies outside are over. Now we can settle our lingering unfinished affairs.
38:07He leaned over, trapping me as I tried to dodge, and lightly laughed while bringing up old memories.
38:13I took out the old red string and smiled as I looked at him.
38:17My dear, do you still acknowledge it?
38:20Kale's Adam's juckle bobbed, and he knelt on one knee.
38:23Every gift from my beloved wife shall be treasured for all my days.
38:26One year later, in the castle's back garden, I was pregnant, lazily leaning against a soft couch.
38:33Kale stayed by my side, not moving an inch, carefully feeding me. My elder sister, who once
38:38looked down on me like I was nothing, toiled all day in the slave camp, her hands raw with frostbite,
38:43trapped in unending abuse and back-breaking labor. My callous and selfish biological parents argued and
38:49fought over food and warmth all day, living in utter disarray. The exiled Princess Lyra had long gone
38:55completely mad, roaming the wilderness beyond clan borders, her fate unknown. Everyone who
39:01had ever humiliated me had been dealt with. The baby in my womb moved gently, and Kale instantly
39:06panicked, then childly and gently leaned down to my belly. I looked at the man before me,
39:11whose heart was completely devoted to me and raised my hand to crest his brow and eyes, my gaze full
39:16of love.
