Short filmTranscript
00:01My back hit the peeling wall in my apartment.
00:05Alexander Blackwood had one hand braced beside my ear.
00:08His tie was loose.
00:10Two buttons on his shirt were open.
00:12His dark red eyes made it hard for me to breathe.
00:16He was the alpha of the East Coast Obsidian Pack.
00:19He was also my hardest boss on Wall Street.
00:22Emily, ten minutes ago, you sent me five mating memes.
00:27I did not send them.
00:30It was your phone, your account, and your apartment.
00:34It was Pumpkin. My cat did it.
00:37Your cat wants to mate with me?
00:39It only wanted to sit on my phone.
00:42It only took ten minutes for everything to turn into this.
00:45At 11 p.m., my iPhone kept buzzing on the couch.
00:49The screen lit up again and again.
00:51Every message came from Alexander.
00:54I glanced at it once and tossed the phone away.
00:56Give up, boss.
00:58Off-duty, Emily is dead.
01:00I walked into the bathroom while hummed.
01:02I forgot to lock the screen.
01:05My fat orange cat, Pumpkin, was lying on the arm of the couch.
01:09Its eyes were fixed on the glowing screen.
01:12When I came out while drying my hair, the chat had become a disaster.
01:20Reply when you see this.
01:22I do not want to think.
01:24I only want to mate.
01:26This is a work chat.
01:28Do not ask, boss.
01:29The answer is mating.
01:31You had better be joking.
01:33Work can die.
01:35Mating comes first.
01:36So, you have been secretly smelling my pheromones.
01:41I was not imagining it.
01:42I do not want to be human tonight.
01:45If you want to be my mate, say it directly.
01:47Rut.
01:48Emergency kit.
01:50Emily, answer me.
01:51I am desperate too.
01:53I stared at his last line.
01:55The towel almost fell from my hand.
01:59A heavy sound came from outside the door.
02:03I rushed to the entry.
02:05The old lock had already cracked.
02:07The apartment door slammed into the wall.
02:10Alexander stood in the doorway, with night cold on his black coat.
02:14You sent me those things at midnight.
02:16Were you testing me?
02:17No.
02:19It was Pumpkin.
02:21Do not lie to me, when I am close to losing control.
02:25I am not lying.
02:27The cat is under the couch.
02:28You can ask it.
02:30Pumpkin stuck half its head out from under the couch.
02:33Then it pulled back in.
02:34Alexander did not look at it.
02:36He stepped over the broken wood and came to me.
02:40He gripped my waist and pressed me back against the wall.
02:45Do you know what those messages do to an alpha in Rut?
02:50I know that.
02:51So you should go home, take a cold shower, and cancel tomorrow morning's meeting.
02:57You still dare to manage my schedule?
03:01I am your chief secretary.
03:03It is my job.
03:05His eyes dropped to my lip.
03:06Then you should know, I do not want to talk about work right now.
03:10He lowered his head to kiss me.
03:11I grabbed his tie and forced him to stop an inch from me.
03:15Alexander, do not touch my glane.
03:18His heavy breath fell over me.
03:20Cedar pheromones almost covered me.
03:22The back of my neck grew hot.
03:23My vanilla scent also slipped out of control.
03:26His fingers tightened hard.
03:28But he did not bite.
03:30Then tell me.
03:31What do you want me to do?
03:34Only one thought stayed in my head.
03:37I had to survive and keep my $600,000 job.
03:42The report!
03:43I said at once.
03:44I will finish the quarterly risk report right now.
03:47He stayed silent for two seconds.
03:51You want to do it now?
03:53Yes.
03:54I mean, right now.
03:56His eyes moved past me to the half-open bedroom door.
04:00On the bed?
04:02Who handles files on a bed?
04:09You were the one who said right now!
04:14My face burned at once.
04:16I meant the report.
04:18The quarterly risk report.
04:21A laptop, spreadsheets, numbers, and tomorrow morning's meeting.
04:27Then go to the study.
04:29I had just relaxed.
04:31He added in a low voice.
04:32I also enjoy desks.
04:34I almost drove him out with a folder.
04:36That night, I made Alexander sit in the farthest chair in the study.
04:40I sat across the desk from him.
04:41Between us were two laptops,
04:43a stack of files,
04:44three mugs,
04:45and one fat orange cat forced to serve as a witness.
04:48He marked my report with a red pen.
04:51I used a folder to cover the back of my neck.
04:54At 3 a.m.,
04:56he finally stood up.
04:58Before he left,
05:00he put a sticky note on my desk.
05:03Prepare supplies tomorrow morning.
05:05I was too sleepy to keep my eyes open.
05:07I only wanted this dangerous alpha to leave.
05:11Fine.
05:11Send me the list.
05:16The next morning,
05:18my phone woke me up.
05:19It was an iMessage from Alexander.
05:22I measured it.
05:23I need Wolf Custom XXL.
05:26I sat up and froze on the bed.
05:28The next message popped up at once.
05:30Standard condoms from a human drugstore are not safe.
05:33They will break.
05:34Then a bank alert appeared on my screen.
05:38I stared at the $50,000 for a full five minutes.
05:44XXL was required.
05:46Standard ones would break.
05:47There was a supply fund.
05:49I opened last night's chat.
05:51I finally understood what Alexander meant by supplies.
05:55Last night,
05:56I had agreed to prepare mating condoms for a top alpha in rut.
05:59I called my beta best friend,
06:01Jessica,
06:02as fast as I could.
06:05Jessica,
06:06I am finished.
06:07I asked my alpha boss to mate through memes.
06:10Last night,
06:11he kicked down my door
06:12and almost made me his mate in my study.
06:14Now,
06:15he sent me $50,000
06:17and told me to buy XXL condoms.
06:20Phone went silent for one second.
06:22Then Jessica screamed.
06:24Did you say XXL,
06:25Emily?
06:26You hit the jackpot.
06:27That is Blackwood.
06:28Do you know how many Manhattan socialettes
06:30want him to bite them?
06:31Is that the point?
06:32Of course it is.
06:34$50,000 is only the supply fund.
06:36That means he is serious.
06:37Jessica,
06:38he already drains me on Wall Street during the day.
06:41I do not want him to drain me in bed at night.
06:44But it is XXL.
06:48Jessica,
06:49stop talking.
06:50Fine.
06:51Go explain it.
06:52Her voice dropped.
06:53But are you sure you do not want to think about it?
06:55I hung up.
06:56I had to go to the office.
06:58I had to clear this up today.
07:05At 9 a.m.,
07:06I walked into Obsidian headquarters.
07:09I heard Alexander raging in the glass conference room.
07:15Everyone lowered their heads.
07:16No one dared to breathe.
07:19I forced myself to take the reinvestment form and knocked on his office door.
07:27You can come in.
07:28He stood before the floor-to-ceiling windows with his back to me.
07:32I tried hard to stay professional.
07:36Alexander,
07:37I need your signature on a document.
07:39He turned around fast.
07:41His long legs crossed the whole office in two steps.
07:45He grabbed my wrist,
07:46pulled me into his arms,
07:47and buried his nose against the side of my neck.
07:52Were you waiting for me?
07:54This is the office.
07:55The door is not locked.
07:57I could not smell you in the meeting.
07:59I almost tore down the whole floor.
08:01Then you should stay away from me.
08:03I tried.
08:04His arms tightened.
08:05I failed at that.
08:07The office doors suddenly opened.
08:11Richard from project management looked inside.
08:15Alexander,
08:16here is the revised proposal.
08:18I shoved Alexander away
08:19and fell onto the carpet.
08:21I became the bullied employee in one second.
08:26Boss,
08:27I was wrong.
08:28Please do not cut my pay.
08:30Richard stared at my messy skirt.
08:32Then he looked at Alexander's face.
08:34His soul almost left his body.
08:36Alexander's eyes turned cold at once.
08:39Get out now.
08:40Richard nearly lost his grip on the door handle.
08:43I used the chance to climb up,
08:46fix my skirt,
08:48and run back to my desk.
08:50As soon as I sat down,
08:52my computer showed a message
08:53from the secure office channel.
08:55That role play was very convincing.
08:58Will you beg me that pitifully tonight too?
09:01Did you buy the supplies?
09:02I covered burning face
09:03and closed my eyes in pain.
09:05Someone help me.
09:06This wolf had lost his mind.
09:12That afternoon,
09:14in the airport VIP lounge,
09:15I learned how badly
09:17I had messed up again.
09:19Alexander held two boarding pads.
09:22His brows were locked tight.
09:25You booked economy class?
09:27The group budget is tight.
09:29Sarah said,
09:30we should save money.
09:32And then?
09:33He held up the other ticket
09:35and gave a cold laugh.
09:37You,
09:38a delicate Omega,
09:39booked first class for yourself?
09:42I looked down.
09:44My heart almost stopped.
09:46I had switched the names.
09:47Even worse,
09:48the flight to Alaska was full.
09:51We could not change seats.
09:54So Alexander Blackbrook,
09:56the most honored top alpha
09:57in North America,
09:59had to fold himself
10:00into a poor economy seat.
10:02His long legs
10:04had nowhere to go.
10:08I sat in first class
10:10and drank champagne.
10:11Every second,
10:12I planned my own funeral
10:14in my head.
10:18Six hours later,
10:19the Alaska wind
10:20almost woke me from shock.
10:23I moved close to him
10:25and tugged on his coat sleeve.
10:29Alexander,
10:30say someone hurt you by accident.
10:32She swears she did not mean it.
10:34A great alpha
10:35would forgive her, right?
10:37He stopped walking.
10:39Snow fell on his black hair.
10:41Emily,
10:42under PAC rules,
10:43I do not care about
10:44the process.
10:45I care about the result.
10:46He lifted his hand.
10:49His fingertip pressed
10:51against the gland on my neck.
10:52My whole body shook.
10:59If my Omega makes me suffer,
11:01I make her remember the cost.
11:04My heart dropped.
11:06I knew I was finished.
11:08Even the snow in Alaska
11:10could not save me tonight.
11:15Anchorage Aurora Hotel.
11:17The North American wolf summit dinner.
11:19That morning,
11:21Alexander had canceled the hunting rights
11:23of several old families
11:24in a closed meeting.
11:27So tonight,
11:29every face in the room
11:30looked frozen.
11:31He had no interest
11:33in attending this event.
11:36So I came instead.
11:38As his chief secretary,
11:40I had to close the logistics agreement
11:42with Alaska's Bloodfang pack.
11:44Miss Emily,
11:45I admit Obsidian has money.
11:47The blood fan leader pushed
11:49a glass of vodka to me.
11:51But we make the rules
11:52in Alaska.
11:53Drink this,
11:54and I sign.
11:56Refuse,
11:57and none of your trucks
11:58enter Anchorage.
12:00His rough fingers
12:01brushed the back
12:02of my hand
12:02on purpose.
12:04I smelled rotting swamp
12:05and cheap cigar on him.
12:07My stomach turned,
12:09but I had no way out.
12:11My $600,000 salary
12:13was right in front of me.
12:14I picked up the glass
12:16and drank it down.
12:17You handle liquor well.
12:18Have another glass.
12:20Several alphas around us
12:21started to cheer.
12:22Their pheromones
12:23pressed in layer by layer.
12:25The second glass,
12:26the third glass,
12:27my vision began to blur.
12:30Then something worse happened.
12:32The gland on the back
12:33of my neck burned.
12:35Vanilla pheromones
12:36rushed out from my collar.
12:37The alcohol triggered
12:39my heat early.
12:40The one-eyed leader's breathing
12:41grew heavy at once.
12:43He reached for my shoulder.
12:44You smell so sweet, Omega.
12:52That Blackwood boy
12:54is wasting you.
12:56Tonight,
12:57you are mine.
12:59A snowstorms rushed in.
13:02The crystal chandelier
13:03shook heart.
13:04Alexander stood in the doorway.
13:07Cedar and black coffee
13:08burst across the whole room.
13:10His eyes were blood-red.
13:12He stared at the hand
13:14that was one inch
13:15from touching me.
13:16Who gave you the nerve
13:17to touch my Omega?
13:18He crossed the long table,
13:20grabbed the one-eyed
13:21leader's throat,
13:22and lifted the 200-pound Alpha
13:24with one hand.
13:25Alexander's calm voice
13:26made everyone go cold.
13:28Alpha Blackwood,
13:30please spare me.
13:31Look at her with those eyes again,
13:34and I will erase blood flag
13:36from Alaska tonight.
13:38He threw the leader
13:39into the corner.
13:40Then he turned
13:41and came to me.
13:42His coat fell over me.
13:44It covered my shaking body
13:45and my wild vanilla scent.
13:47He picked me up in his arms
13:49and lowered his mouth
13:50to my ear.
13:52I came late.
13:54I am sorry.
13:56I lay against his chest.
13:58My heartbeat was a mess.
14:03This wolf had just apologized.
14:10In the elevator,
14:11vanilla and cedar filled the air.
14:14Heat burned through me
14:15again and again.
14:19I grabbed his tie
14:20and pulled it loose.
14:24Alexander, I am so hot.
14:36Emily, do not move.
14:38His voice was terrifyingly horsey.
14:41Every vein in his arms stood out.
14:44You are not clear-headed now.
14:46I am clear.
14:48I looked up at him
14:48with tears on my lashes.
14:50I know it is you.
14:56His whole body locked up.
14:59Are you sure?
15:03I am sure.
15:05Say the whole thing.
15:07I bit my lip
15:08and gripped his shirt.
15:10I want you
15:12and only you.
15:15The elevator doors opened.
15:18We had reached the top floor.
15:21Alexander let out a low growl
15:23and carried me fast
15:25toward the presential suite.
15:31The heavy door closed behind us.
15:34He did not rush to pin me down.
15:36He pressed me against
15:38the full-length mirror by the entry
15:39and rested his forehead on mine.
15:43One last time, Emily.
15:50Please stop asking.
15:53I kissed him first.
15:57His control burned away.
16:00He lifted me up.
16:02The suite lights fell behind us.
16:05Cedar covered the storm outside.
16:07His kisses went from rough to hot.
16:10Then from hot to careful.
16:12My work suit fell into the floor.
16:14He used his coat to cover the cold mirror.
16:16One hand protected the back of my neck.
16:18The other held my waist.
16:20In the mirror,
16:20I saw his eyes.
16:22They were red enough to swallow me whole.
16:26Alexander,
16:26I am a little scared.
16:29You are too big.
16:30Can I take it?
16:34Look at me.
16:35His voice was deep.
16:37Hold on to me.
16:42That night started at the mirror by the entry,
16:44then moved to the living room carpet,
16:46the marble counter in the bathroom,
16:48and the ruined bed.
16:52Alexander had held back for too long.
16:55He gave all that hunger to me.
16:57Every time I tried to hide,
16:58he held my hands and made me look at him.
17:01Say my name.
17:02Tell me who you want now.
17:04His eyes were red.
17:05His voice burned low.
17:07Alexander,
17:08I want only you.
17:10I cried and gripped his shoulders.
17:13When his fangs touched my grain,
17:15my whole body froze.
17:16I grabbed his hair at once.
17:19Do not mark me,
17:21Alexander.
17:23Not now.
17:27He stopped with great effort.
17:30His breath hit my skin.
17:34In the end,
17:35he bit my colisbone.
17:38It was not a mark.
17:40It was only his sign on me.
17:43Before dawn,
17:45I did not know how many times I passed out.
17:48When I finally fell asleep,
17:50he still held me in his arms.
17:52He seemed afraid I would disappear from his hands.
17:59I woke up at noon.
18:00My whole body felt crushed,
18:02and my legs almost had no feeling.
18:05Alexander slept on the other side of the bed.
18:08His bare back was covered with marks from my nails.
18:12On the carpet,
18:13torn black wrappers lay in silence.
18:15They explained how out of control last night had been.
18:18I stared at the ceiling and started thinking,
18:22what would happen after he woke up?
18:24I knew what would happen.
18:26He would claim me in an alpha's way.
18:28He would lock me in some penthouse in New York
18:30and tell all of Wall Street that I was his omega.
18:33My independent woman image would vanish.
18:37My $600,000 salary would become monthly spending from him.
18:47I could not let that happen.
18:49I still had $10,000 in student loans.
18:59I forced myself to get up,
19:01picked my trench coat from the carpet,
19:03and wrapped it around me.
19:06I took out my phone and blocked Alexander on iMessage,
19:09Instagram, LinkedIn, and Venmo.
19:11I left no opening.
19:13At the door, I looked at him.
19:15He was different when he slept.
19:18The cold danger was gone.
19:20Only broad shoulders,
19:22a rising chest,
19:23and the bite mark I left on his cholera bone remained.
19:27My heart softened for no reason.
19:34Then I opened my wallet.
19:37Inside, I only had one wrinkled $5 bill and two quarters.
19:42I thought for a moment.
19:43Then I put the $5.50
19:45under his Patek Vafirili watch on the nightstand.
19:49I am sorry, Alexander.
19:50Your service was worth more,
19:52but I am broke.
19:54I went straight to the airport
19:56and bought the next flight to Ohio.
20:00Two days later,
20:02Silver Creek, Ohio.
20:07I shoveled manure beside the pig can
20:09and tried to empty my mind with hard labor.
20:12It did not work.
20:16Alexander Cedar scent still stuck to my skin.
20:20No shower could wash it off.
20:22The bite on my cholera bone hurt when I touched it.
20:27Each sting reminded me
20:30how wild that Alaska night had been.
20:32My backup iPhone ran.
20:40Lily's FaceTime connected.
20:42I heard glass shatter behind her.
20:45She hid under a desk
20:46and her face was very pale.
20:49Emily,
20:50where are you?
20:54I went back home.
20:56What happened to him?
20:59He is a nuclear bomb!
21:01Right now!
21:06Lily Whisper screamed.
21:08The morning you vanished,
21:10he flew back from Alaska.
21:11The moment he entered the building,
21:13security on three floors dropped to their knees.
21:17Richard only asked where you went.
21:20Alexander threw him from the 50th floor window
21:22into the Hudson River!
21:25Is he dead?
21:27His leg is broken,
21:30but he is alive.
21:33Every finance computer got smashed.
21:36He also told the whole East Coast Elder Council
21:38that if they cannot find you,
21:40he will tear up every territory agreement.
21:44Lily's voice began to shake.
21:46Emily,
21:47what did you do to him?
21:50Did you poison his coffee?
21:54I did not poison him.
21:56I covered my face in despair.
21:59I only gave him $5.50 for the night.
22:03If the old men on Wall Street knew this,
22:06they would faint on the spot.
22:07Their Wolf King had been paid off
22:09by an Omega secretary.
22:14The change could not even buy a Big Mac.
22:16Okay, Lily,
22:17the signal is bad.
22:18Do not hang up!
22:20I still hung up.
22:24I took a nervous, deep breath.
22:28There was no way this crazy wolf
22:30could follow my scent
22:31from New York Towers
22:33to Ohio cornfields.
22:37Three eye matches from my mom
22:39popped up at the same times.
22:40They were all in caps.
22:43The third message was a photo.
22:46I opened it,
22:47and my breath stopped.
22:48It was Alexander.
22:50He wore the expensive suit
22:51I had wrinkled.
22:52It still carried dried blood.
22:54He sat on our front porch swing
22:56with a murderous air.
22:57Our German shepherd, Max,
22:58once killed a coyote.
23:00Now he tucked his tail,
23:01showed his belly,
23:02and lay at Alexander's shoes
23:03to flatter him.
23:05Alexander looked up
23:06at the person taking the photo.
23:08A cold curve touched his mouth.
23:11This beast had crossed three states
23:13and gone straight to my home.
23:15I was doomed.
23:17When I got back,
23:18my mom stood on the front porch
23:20with her arms crossed.
23:21Her eyes moved between Alexander and me.
23:24My dad leaned against the door frame
23:26and quietly ate sunflower seeds.
23:29Alexander sat on the broken wooden swing.
23:31He looked fully at ease
23:33on an Ohio corn farm,
23:34despite being a top alpha.
23:36He rested his expensive shoes
23:38on the step and looked at me calmly.
23:43You are back.
23:47I did not come back for you.
23:49I froze in the yard.
23:55I live here.
23:56Emily.
24:00My mom's voice was low.
24:02She only used that tone
24:03before things got serious.
24:05Get inside, both of you.
24:07My dad spit sunflower seed shells
24:09into his palm
24:10and stood up straight.
24:12The four of us sat
24:13at the wooden kitchen table.
24:15My mom poured Alexander
24:17a cup of coffee.
24:18Then, she sat down
24:20and went straight to the point.
24:22Who are you?
24:23What do you want with my daughter?
24:27Alexander picked up the coffee,
24:29drank some,
24:30and put it down.
24:33I am Alexander Blackwood,
24:35Alpha of the Obsidian Pack.
24:37He looked at my mom.
24:39I am serious about her.
24:43Do you call that serious?
24:45You are an Alpha from Manhattan.
24:47You came to an Ohio cornfield
24:50for an Omega secretary?
24:52Yes.
24:53I do.
24:55Then why did she run?
24:59The kitchen went quiet.
25:01Everyone looked at me.
25:02I had just opened my mouth,
25:04but Alexander spoke first.
25:07Because I moved too fast.
25:09I scared her.
25:15I almost choked on my own spit.
25:19My mom stared at him
25:20for a long time.
25:23Emily, you tell me.
25:26What do you think?
25:29I stared at the water ring
25:31from the coffee cup on the table.
25:33I could not say a word.
25:35My dad tossed the last sunflower seed
25:38into his mouth,
25:39stood up,
25:40and patted Alexander's shoulder.
25:45Stay in the guest room tonight.
25:48Farm work starts at 6 tomorrow morning
25:50if you want to stay.
25:54I understand that.
25:59My mom sighed
26:00and got up to make dinner.
26:03Only Alexander and I
26:04remained in the kitchen.
26:08He looked at me.
26:09I stared at the table
26:10and did not dare to look up.
26:12Then he called my name
26:13in a low voice.
26:15Did you mean that $5.50?
26:19I finally raised my head.
26:21That was all I had in my wallet.
26:24He stayed silent for one second.
26:27Then he pushed the coffee cup
26:28a little towards me.
26:30Drink the coffee.
26:32It is getting cold.
26:35I understood him even less.
26:39The next day,
26:40my mom took me to the town coffee shop.
26:43She said I would meet a decent young man.
26:48His name was Kevin.
26:49His name was Kevin.
26:49He was a beta
26:50and a federal postal worker.
26:53My mom had arranged a date.
26:55I had been sitting in the booth
26:56for five minutes
26:57when my phone buzzed.
26:58Where are you?
27:00I turned my phone
27:01face down on the table
27:03and pretended I did not see it.
27:05Ten minutes later,
27:07Kevin was talking about
27:08his 401k plan.
27:10I suddenly felt cold
27:11across my back.
27:13Another message popped up.
27:15Emily, answer me.
27:17I will count to three.
27:19I looked out the window
27:20and saw no one.
27:22But Cedar had crossed
27:24the whole street
27:24and entered the coffee shop.
27:28I stood up suddenly
27:30and grabbed Kevin's arm.
27:32My family farm is on fire.
27:34Can you drive me back
27:35in your pickup?
27:36The farm is on fire?
27:38Get in now.
27:40Honest Kevin grabbed
27:41his keys at once.
27:44Ten minutes later,
27:46the old Ford F-150
27:47rushed into the Smith farmyard
27:49and kicked up a cloud of dust.
27:51I had just opened the door
27:53and had not jumped out yet.
27:55An alpha's rage
27:56hit me so hard
27:57my scalp went numb.
27:59Alexander stood in the dust.
28:00His eyes were red.
28:02He stared at me,
28:04then slowly looked at Kevin
28:05in the driver's seat.
28:06Emily, listen to me.
28:08You slept with me,
28:10drained me until I passed out
28:11then ran away.
28:12I endured that.
28:14He walked to the pickup
28:15and gripped the metal edge
28:16of the door.
28:17The steel bent under his finger.
28:19Kevin held the steering wheel
28:21with both hands.
28:22He could not make a sound.
28:24But you left five dollars
28:25and fifty cents.
28:27What did that mean?
28:28Did you treat me
28:28as a cheap male escort?
28:32Kevin and I both went silence.
28:34My mom ran out
28:35from the backyard
28:36with her Remington
28:36double barrel shotgun.
28:38Alexander pointed at Kevin.
28:40His pheromones wept over him
28:42and crushed Kevin's weak scent.
28:44Who is this man?
28:45You would rather date a beta
28:47who cannot even protect you
28:48than stay with me?
28:49What does he have
28:50that I don't?
28:51Something snapped in my head.
28:53He has a stable federal job.
28:55He has full health insurance
28:57and a 401k.
28:58What can you give me?
28:59You only drain me
29:00with overtime and rut.
29:02The yard went dead quiet.
29:04Alexander's face shifted
29:05between anger and shock.
29:07Wall Street capitalists
29:08truly had no answer for that.
29:12Emily Smith, explain yourself.
29:15My mom understood the whole mess.
29:18She marched towards me
29:19with the shotgun.
29:20What did you learn in New York?
29:23You slept with a man,
29:24left him five dollars,
29:26then came home for a date.
29:28You have embarrassed
29:29the whole Smith family.
29:32Mom, Pumpkin started it
29:34and he was the one
29:34who entered rut first.
29:36I jumped out of the pickup
29:37and ran in circles
29:38around the green John Deere tractor.
29:40My mom chased me
29:41with the shotgun
29:41far too fast.
29:43Just when I thought
29:45I would die in Ohio,
29:46a tall black shadow
29:48stepped in front of me.
29:51Alexander used his broad back
29:53to shield me completely.
29:55He faced the gun
29:56and did not step back.
29:57He lifted his chest.
29:59The fury on his face
30:00turned sincere.
30:01It even looked
30:02a little broken.
30:03Mrs. Smith,
30:04please put down the gun.
30:05Everything was my fault.
30:07I peeked out
30:07from behind him.
30:10I failed to control
30:12my alpha instinct.
30:13In Alaska,
30:14I kept her
30:15for too long
30:16that night.
30:18I was too forceful
30:20and I scared Emily
30:21into running away.
30:22My eyes went wide.
30:24This scheming wolf
30:26was playing
30:26the wounded man.
30:28If you want to hit someone,
30:29hit me.
30:30If she will give me
30:32one chance to explain,
30:33I will accept
30:34any punishment.
30:36My mom's hands trembled.
30:38The shotgun
30:39slowly lowered.
30:41She looked Alexander
30:43up and down.
30:44His messy suit
30:45could not hide
30:46his rich man's bearing,
30:47broad shoulders,
30:49narrow waist,
30:50and very real good looks.
30:53Do you truly
30:55want to marry Emily?
30:56My mom's eyes
30:57started to shine.
30:58It was the shine
31:00of a future mother-in-law
31:01changing sides.
31:02I was about to explode.
31:05Shut up, Alexander!
31:07You have no shame!
31:09He reached back,
31:10wrapped an arm
31:11around my waist,
31:12and locked me
31:13against him.
31:14He lowered his mouth
31:15to my ear.
31:15Say one more word
31:16and I will kiss you
31:17on your family's
31:18tractor hood
31:19until you cannot speak.
31:22I shut up
31:23on the spot.
31:26Alexander stayed
31:27through pure nerve.
31:29The great wolf king
31:30of Wall Street
31:31and ruler
31:32of the Obsidian Syndicate
31:34moved into the guest room
31:35of a normal
31:36Ohio farm.
31:37My mom's
31:38cross its silch,
31:40hung by the bed.
31:43He got up
31:44at exactly 6
31:45the next morning.
31:47Then he took
31:48off his custom shirt.
31:49My mom looked out
31:50from the kitchen window.
31:52She looked once
31:53and pulled back.
31:55Three seconds later,
31:56she looked again.
31:57Early summer sunlight
31:58in Ohio fell on him.
32:00Sweat ran down
32:01his chest.
32:02He held a fire axe
32:03and split 10 years
32:04of logs in our backyard
32:05into neat firewood
32:07before noon.
32:07In the afternoon,
32:09he crouched down
32:09and took apart
32:10the broken John Deere
32:11tractor engine
32:12with his bare hands.
32:13His hands were
32:14covered in oil,
32:15but he fixed every part
32:16and put it back.
32:20The engine started
32:21on the first try.
32:23Several wives
32:24from nearby farms
32:24hid outside the fence
32:26and craned their nekkas.
32:27They forgot to talk.
32:32You are a good man.
32:34You work harder
32:35than 10 bulls
32:35from town.
32:38Max,
32:38that spinless
32:39German shepherd,
32:41now ran to Alexander
32:42with a frisbee
32:43whenever he waved.
32:44Hmm,
32:45he ignored me.
32:46His real owner.
32:48I pretended to wash dishes
32:49in the kitchen
32:50and lowered my voice.
32:53Alexander,
32:54are you ignoring New York?
32:56The Elder Council
32:56is about to explode.
33:00Lily and the others
33:02can hold it.
33:03But you are
33:04Obsidian's Alpha.
33:07My Omega ran away.
33:08If I cannot keep
33:09my own mate,
33:10what kind of Alpha am I?
33:12I am not your mate.
33:14I gripped the bowl
33:15and stayed stubborn.
33:17Cedar covered me at once.
33:19He lowered his head
33:20and looked at me.
33:22Familiar heat burned
33:23in his amber eyes.
33:28Emily,
33:29do you really want
33:30to discuss ownership here?
33:31We stood beside
33:32the sink in the kitchen.
33:34My mom could walk in
33:35at any minute.
33:36I forced myself
33:37not to answer.
33:39A small smile
33:40touched his mouth.
33:41He bent close
33:42to my ear.
33:43We will talk later.
33:47At dusk,
33:48Alexander grabbed my wrist
33:50and pulled me
33:50into the old red barn
33:52in the backyard.
33:53The wooden door
33:53locked behind us.
33:55Sunset came through
33:56the shutter gaps.
33:57The air smelled
33:57of hay and cedar.
33:58Let me go!
33:59What are you trying
34:00to do now?
34:02He came over
34:03and braced his hands
34:04on both sides of me,
34:06trapping me
34:06in front of the haystack.
34:08I came to settle accounts.
34:10I do not owe you money.
34:13You ran away.
34:14You went on a date.
34:16You left that damn
34:17five dollars and fifty cents.
34:18That was all the cash
34:19in my wallet.
34:21Is that so?
34:23His hands closed
34:25on my waist
34:25and pulled me close.
34:26I pressed both hands
34:28against his chest.
34:30Alexander,
34:30I am not your prize!
34:32The danger in his eyes
34:34paused.
34:35I know that.
34:36Then stop giving me orders.
34:38He lowered his head.
34:40His voice was rough
34:41and deep.
34:43Then I am asking you.
34:45Do not run again.
34:46My heart jumped hard.
34:48When he kissed me,
34:49I did not dodge.
34:50This kiss was different
34:51from Alaska.
34:52It was patient,
34:53skilled,
34:54and gentle.
34:55But it did not
34:55let me ignore it.
34:56It slowly broke down
34:57every wall I had.
34:58I grabbed his shoulders.
35:00My voice was already
35:01unsteady.
35:02Someone will come in.
35:05Someone is guarding outside.
35:13You even called
35:14pack guards for the door?
35:17I learned to prepare.
35:19That includes condoms.
35:21I almost laughed
35:22from anger.
35:24You are crazy!
35:26The sun sank
35:27little by little.
35:28Hay and cedar
35:29mixed in the air.
35:30Only for you.
35:32When he carried me
35:33onto the haystack,
35:35my last clear thought
35:36fell away.
35:37He still did not
35:38touch my glane.
35:40Then I grabbed his hand
35:41and pressed his palm
35:42to the back of my neck.
35:44Alexander,
35:44do not bite.
35:45Just hold me.
35:47His whole body froze.
35:49Do not bite.
35:51But you can hold me tighter.
35:52He lowered his head
35:53and rested it on my shoulder.
35:56His voice was nearly
35:57too low to hear.
36:00You will be
36:01the death of me.
36:02That dusk,
36:03my broken voice
36:04scattered across
36:04the Ohio fields.
36:06Alexander held me
36:07in his arms
36:07and said my name
36:08again and again.
36:09He needed to know
36:10I was truly still there.
36:11Later,
36:12he wrapped me
36:12in his coat
36:13and held me
36:13against the haystack.
36:14Come back to New York
36:15with me.
36:15Be Obsidian's
36:16president's wife.
36:17$600,000 base salary.
36:19Use the black card
36:19as you please.
36:20Full medical benefits.
36:21I looked up at him.
36:24What else do I get?
36:28You also get me.
36:29I bit his chest.
36:31We have a deal, boss.
36:34This hungry wolf
36:35from Wall Street
36:36had eaten me clean.
36:37He did not plan
36:38to return even the bones.
36:42When the private jet
36:44landed in Manhattan,
36:45my heart went wild again.
36:48The black armored Maybach
36:50drove into the underground
36:51garage at Obsidian headquarters.
36:53I grabbed the door
36:54and tried to escape first.
36:56You take the private elevator.
36:57I will use
36:58the employee entrance.
37:00What are you afraid of?
37:01Am I that shameful?
37:03No.
37:03If hundreds of wolves
37:04at the company
37:05know I am with you,
37:06how can I survive here?
37:07I lowered my voice.
37:08I lead the boss
37:09batching in the break room.
37:10He gave a cold laugh.
37:11His nose moved close
37:12and smelled the side
37:13of my neck.
37:13You smell of me
37:14inside and out.
37:15Do you think
37:15their noses are broken?
37:16He kept an arm
37:17around my waist
37:17and forced me
37:18into the lobby.
37:19In the core office area,
37:20everyone looked over
37:22at once.
37:22A few co-works
37:24who usually slacked off
37:25with me rushed to my side.
37:26Their faces told me
37:27to stay strong.
37:28Emily,
37:28you are finally back.
37:29Alpha's rage
37:30almost tore down
37:30the building
37:31these past few days.
37:32We thought you had been
37:32thrown into the Hudson River.
37:34Before they finished,
37:35Vice President Marcus
37:36walked over from the hall.
37:37This old school alpha
37:38always acted superior.
37:40Today,
37:40his tone was even worse.
37:41Emily,
37:42you were absent
37:42without reason for days.
37:44Under PAC rules
37:44and HR policy,
37:45you should be fired
37:46and barred
37:46from working
37:47in the financial district.
37:48Young people suffer
37:49one small gritch
37:50and vanish.
37:51I wonder who spoiled
37:52you this much.
37:52I had no time to answer.
37:54Alexander had already
37:56walked out from behind me.
37:57Cold alpha pressure
37:58swept across the room.
38:00Marcus went pale
38:02at once.
38:03I spoiled her.
38:04Who gave you the right
38:05to lecture my person?
38:06The ICE defense station
38:07in North Dakota
38:08needs someone
38:08to shove snow.
38:09Report there tomorrow.
38:10Do not return to New York
38:11without my order.
38:12The whole room
38:13went silent.
38:14Everyone lowered
38:15their heads.
38:15He turned to me.
38:16His eyes were cold,
38:17but another heat
38:18burned beneath them.
38:19Emily,
38:20come to my office.
38:21My co-workers
38:22gave me silent pity.
38:24I opened the mahogany door.
38:26Before I could speak,
38:28he locked it
38:28from the inside.
38:30The next second,
38:31he pressed me
38:31against the door
38:32and kissed me.
38:33Cedar swallowed me
38:33at once.
38:34That is enough,
38:35Alexander.
38:35Did you not kiss me
38:36in the garage already?
38:37That only gave me
38:38enough time to last
38:39until I entered
38:40the building.
38:41His forehead
38:42rest on mine.
38:43His fangs
38:44lightly caught
38:45my lower lip.
38:46Do not make a sound.
38:47They can hear outside.
38:49Then stop messing around.
38:51He took my hand
38:52and pressed it
38:52to his chest.
38:53I am not messing around.
38:55I only need to make sure
38:56you truly came back.
38:59I wanted to scold him,
39:01but his heart
39:01was beating too fast.
39:06Ten minutes later,
39:08I opened the door
39:09and tried to keep
39:09a normal face.
39:11My legs were still weak.
39:13Alexander sat behind
39:14the desk again.
39:15His face was cold.
39:16He looked untouched
39:17by what had happened.
39:19Then came the
39:20senior strategy board meeting.
39:25He sat at the head
39:26of the long table
39:27and listened to
39:27department reports.
39:28His cold presence
39:29made everyone afraid
39:30to raise their heads.
39:31The logistics directors
39:32stood up with care.
39:33Alpha, for next month's
39:35live fire exercise
39:36in the Rocky Mountains,
39:37we reserved your
39:37custom tactical vest
39:38in XXL as usual.
39:40Does that work?
39:41Alexander put down
39:42the report and
39:42tapped the table.
39:43He looked at me,
39:44sitting to his right
39:44and taking notes
39:45with a small smile.
39:46You should ask Emily.
39:47She knows my real size
39:48best these days.
39:49Dozens of eyes
39:50in the meeting room
39:51turned to me at once.
39:53The Alaska suite,
39:55the Ohio barn,
39:56and the scene
39:57behind his office door
39:58exploded in my head
39:59together.
40:00It fits very well.
40:02I answered nervously.
40:04Under the table,
40:06his shoe hooked
40:07the leg of my chair.
40:08I glared at him hard.
40:10On the surface,
40:10he sat straight
40:11and gave orders
40:11about billion dollar mergers.
40:13I could not take it anymore.
40:14I lifted my heel
40:16and kicked.
40:17The analyst cried out.
40:19Sorry Alpha Blackwood,
40:20I hit the table leg
40:21by accident.
40:22An innocent beta analyst
40:23crossed from me,
40:24held his knee,
40:25his face twisted.
40:26I froze because
40:27I had kicked
40:27the wrong person.
40:28I was sorry.
40:31Meeting dismissed.
40:33Alexander held back
40:34a pleased smile
40:34and finally pulled
40:35back his foot.
40:37Emily,
40:38stay and organize
40:39the minutes.
40:39The door closed.
40:40I slapped the folder
40:41against his chest.
40:43You are a bastard!
40:45That was a meeting!
40:47He caught the forge
40:48and leaned close.
40:49You said the size
40:50fit very well.
40:51Let us review it tonight.
40:53Plaza Hotel,
40:54top floor suite.
40:57If you dare not come,
40:58I will pick you up
40:59at your desk myself.
41:00He slipped a room key
41:01into my notebook.
41:02I stared at the key card.
41:04My ears burned.
41:05The most serious boardroom
41:07on Wall Street
41:07had almost become
41:08the place
41:09where he claimed me.
41:17After the meeting,
41:19Manhattan stood
41:20under the evening light.
41:26I returned to my desk
41:27and opened my computer.
41:29A pinned post
41:30on the company's
41:31anonymous forum
41:32had gone up
41:33three minutes ago.
41:34It already had
41:35200 replies.
41:39Major office news.
41:41Alpha's mate is back.
41:43It is Emily.
41:45Someone saw them
41:46enter from the garage
41:46together
41:47and Emily's scent
41:48has changed.
41:54I stared at the screen.
41:56My head buzzed.
41:59My phone vibrated.
42:01Jessica sent a voice message.
42:03She sounded so excited
42:05she might burst.
42:06Emily,
42:07you are finally back.
42:09I smelled that scent
42:10on you from the 20th floor.
42:11You and Alexander
42:12really...
42:15Another voice message
42:16popped up
42:17right after it.
42:18Obsidian's elder council
42:20held an emergency meeting
42:21this afternoon.
42:22They said Alpha
42:23named a mate
42:23without PAC approval
42:24and that breaks the rules.
42:26They want you to face
42:28a PAC eligibility review.
42:30Emily,
42:31this is serious.
42:34I put down my phone
42:35and took a deep breath.
42:37Before I could think it through,
42:39the glass door
42:40of the office opened.
42:44The person who came out
42:45was not Alexander.
42:47It was a woman
42:48I had never seen.
42:52She was tall
42:53with brown hair
42:54and a sharp black suit.
42:56Her alpha pressure
42:57was exact
42:57and controlled.
42:59It felt ready to fire.
43:05She walked to my desk
43:07and leaned down
43:08with both hands on it.
43:12You are Emily?
43:18Yes, I am.
43:28She straightened,
43:29looked me over
43:30and smiled a little.
43:32I am Victoria Hull.
43:34I am the alpha heir
43:35of the Silverstone PAC.
43:40She paused for one second.
43:43I am also the name
43:45on Alexander's engagement agreement
43:46from three years ago.
43:52The air in the office
43:54frozen at once.
43:55Everyone around us
43:57stopped breathing
43:57for a beat.
44:02I looked up at her.
44:04Her voice was calm
44:05and sharp.
44:08He did not tell you?
44:10The alliance agreement
44:11between the two PACs
44:13has been in talks
44:14for three years.
44:16The elder council
44:17will sign it next week.
44:19She lowered her head
44:20and met my eyes.
44:23So before this matter
44:25is settled,
44:27you had better think clearly
44:29about your place
44:30beside him.
44:35She turned and left.
44:36Her heels made
44:37crisp sounds on the floor.
44:45No one in the office
44:46dared to speak.
44:47I sat there
44:48with my pen
44:48still in my hand.
44:50My notebook
44:51held half a line
44:52of unfinished
44:53meeting minutes.
44:54A three-year
44:55engagement agreement.
44:57An alliance agreement.
44:59Signing next week.
45:00I put down the pen,
45:02picked up my bag,
45:03and walked to the elevator.
45:07My iPhone buzzed.
45:10Alexander's eye messages
45:11appeared one after another.
45:14Where did you go?
45:15Your desk is empty.
45:18Emily, answer me.
45:21I stared at the screen
45:23and did not reply.
45:24Another message appeared.
45:26That intern Daniel
45:27went to your desk
45:28again this afternoon.
45:29Why does that stupid beta
45:30keep coming near you?
45:32Do you think I will send him
45:34to Death Valley tomorrow
45:35to dig cactus?
45:36If you think my stamina
45:38is not enough,
45:38say it.
45:39The last message
45:40stayed on the screen.
45:41I smelled another man's
45:42scent on you.
45:43I am jealous enough
45:44to kill.
45:46I looked at that message.
45:48My finger hovered
45:48over the keyboard
45:49and did not move.
45:52Jealous enough to kill.
45:54Then what about
45:55Victoria Hole?
45:56What about that
45:57three-year
45:58engagement agreement?
45:59He was jealous
46:00enough to kill.
46:02But had he ever
46:02told me that
46:03before all this?
46:04He already owed
46:05someone else an answer?
46:08I locked the phone
46:09and put it in my bag.
46:14The elevator doors opened.
46:16I did not get out.
46:18I pressed the button
46:19for the 50th floor
46:20and went back up.
46:24If we had to fight,
46:26we would feist to face.
46:32The doors opened again.
46:34The hallway was wide
46:36and quiet.
46:37After work,
46:38only a few lights
46:40were on across
46:40the 50th floor.
46:42The light in Alexander's office
46:44was still on.
46:45I pushed the door open.
46:47He stood before
46:48the floor-to-ceiling windows
46:49and looked at Manhattan
46:50at night.
46:51His back faced me
46:52and his phone
46:53was in his hand.
46:54He heard my steps,
46:55but he did not
46:57turn around.
47:01Victoria came to see you.
47:08Yes.
47:08I stood at the door.
47:10She said you have
47:11a three-year
47:11engagement agreement.
47:13The elder council
47:14will sign it next week.
47:16The office stayed quiet
47:18for a few seconds.
47:21He turned around.
47:23His eyes were normal amber,
47:25not red.
47:26But there was something
47:28in them I had never seen.
47:30It was not anger.
47:32It was not an excuse.
47:36That agreement
47:38was signed by my father
47:40three years ago.
47:41He said it
47:42not by me.
47:43In a lois.
47:49But you did not
47:50tear it up.
47:53He stayed silent.
47:55You did not
47:56tear it up, Alexander.
47:57I looked at him.
48:00Before Alaska,
48:01before that night
48:02in Brooklyn,
48:03before everything
48:04that happened,
48:05you never told me
48:06it existed.
48:09He stayed silent
48:10for a long time.
48:11Only the distant noise
48:13of Manhattan streets
48:14reached the office.
48:15Fifty slores softened it
48:16until it sounded
48:17small and far away.
48:19I know.
48:20He finally said.
48:22That was my fault.
48:24What happens now?
48:28He walked over.
48:30One step,
48:31two steps,
48:32three steps.
48:34He stopped in front of me.
48:37He lowered his head.
48:39He was so close
48:40that I could see
48:41my reflection
48:42in his eyes.
48:43Now I tear it up.
48:49That is all?
48:51That is all.
48:54His hand covered my face.
48:56His thumb brushed
48:58my cheekbone.
48:59Emily.
49:01I cannot give you
49:02a clean start,
49:03but I can give you
49:04a result.
49:05I looked at him.
49:11If you tear up
49:12that agreement,
49:13the whole Elder Council
49:14will explode.
49:15Silverstone Pack
49:16will turn against you.
49:21I know that.
49:23Your business
49:24will suffer.
49:25At least
49:26for two quarters.
49:28I know that.
49:33Is it worth it?
49:34He did not answer.
49:36He lowered his head
49:37and kissed me.
49:38This time,
49:39it was not possession.
49:41It was not
49:41loss of control.
49:43The kiss was light
49:44and slow.
49:45It answered
49:46without words.
49:47The next morning,
49:48Obsidian Headquarters
49:49received a notice.
49:50It came from
49:51Alexander himself,
49:52and it went to
49:53the entire Elder Council.
49:54The Blackwood and Hale
49:56marriage agreement
49:57ends today.
49:58The reason is simple.
49:59The Alpha refuses
50:00to carry it out.
50:01Bring all objections
50:02to me directly.
50:04This is signed,
50:05A.B.
50:05The Elder Council
50:06group chat
50:07produced 327 messages
50:09in 40 minutes.
50:10Marcus sent a shaking
50:11voice message
50:12from North Dakota.
50:13Alpha,
50:14are you sure?
50:15What about Silverstone?
50:16I am sure.
50:18Alexander replied
50:19with three words.
50:28I sat at my desk
50:30and stared at the
50:30screenshot forwarded
50:31to me.
50:32I stayed silent
50:33for a long time.
50:36That afternoon,
50:38after to work,
50:39we entered
50:39the private elevator
50:40together.
50:41The space was tight.
50:43The elevator
50:44started to go down.
50:49The silence
50:50lasted about
50:51ten seconds.
50:53The lights flickered.
50:55The elevator
50:56suddenly stopped
50:57in midair.
51:00Alexander's pheromones
51:01burst out
51:02in the dark.
51:03He pressed me
51:04against the cold
51:05Elder wall.
51:06His hot hand
51:07slid between my fingers
51:09and locked
51:09with mine.
51:15Emily.
51:16In the dark,
51:17his voice was low
51:18and rough enough
51:19to weaken my knees.
51:21I held back
51:22all day.
51:24The elevator
51:24lights came back on.
51:26His phone
51:27vibrated.
51:30He sent me
51:31an iMessage
51:32right in front of me.
51:33What do you want
51:33to eat at the
51:34Plaza Hotel tonight?
51:35We can forget dinner.
51:36I will eat you first.
51:38I already booked
51:38the top floor
51:39Presential Suite.
51:40Tonight,
51:41if you agree,
51:42I want to give you
51:43the final mark.
51:45I stared at the message.
51:47My heart beat
51:48out of order.
51:54What if I do not agree?
51:57Alexander looked at me.
51:59The red in his eyes
52:01slowly faded.
52:03Then I wait.
52:06How long will you wait?
52:09Until you say yes
52:10with your own mouth.
52:12Ten minutes later,
52:13the Maybach
52:14stopped at the
52:14Plaza Hotel.
52:16He opened the
52:17heavy suite door
52:17and stepped
52:18inside first.
52:20Then he turned back
52:22and held out
52:23his hand to me.
52:26I stood at the door
52:27and did not go in
52:28right away.
52:32Alexander,
52:33I am still
52:34outside the door.
52:39What do you mean?
52:43You cannot give me
52:44orders tonight.
52:47His throat moved.
52:50I will not.
52:54You cannot decide
52:56for me either.
52:58I will not.
53:00If I tell you to stop,
53:02you stop.
53:02He came back
53:03and stood inside the room.
53:05He lowered his head
53:06to me.
53:06I swear to you.
53:08I looked at him
53:09and finally put my hand
53:11in his palm.
53:13The door closed
53:14behind us.
53:15This time,
53:16there was no heat,
53:17no rut,
53:18no alcohol,
53:19and no mistake.
53:21There was only him,
53:22me,
53:23and the Manhattan Knight
53:24outside the window.
53:29He kissed me slowly.
53:32He checked every answer.
53:33I grabbed his shirt
53:35and pulled him closer.
53:38Alexander,
53:39I have something to say.
53:41Emily.
53:45I am here.
53:50Now it is okay.
53:52His breathing broke.
53:59Say it clearly, Emily.
54:01I lifted my head
54:02and met his eyes.
54:07I want you to mark me.
54:09At that moment,
54:10those words hit him hard.
54:12Red slowly burned
54:13into his eyes,
54:14but he did not
54:14lose control again.
54:15He pulled me
54:16into his arms,
54:17kissed my forehead,
54:18the corner of my eye,
54:20and the corner of my mouth.
54:21At last,
54:22he stopped
54:23at the side of my neck.
54:27If it hurts,
54:28hold on to me.
54:34I have been holding on
54:36to you the whole time.
54:40He gave a low laugh.
54:42His voice was horsey.
54:51When his fangs
54:52tierced my glane,
54:55pain shook my whole body.
54:58But his hand
54:59kept holding mine.
55:02His pheromones
55:03entered my blood.
55:05Cedar,
55:05black coffee,
55:06the late-night win-wind
55:08of Manhattan,
55:09and the alpha
55:10who chased me
55:10all the way
55:11to an Ohio cornfield
55:12all sank into my bones.
55:16From this moment on,
55:17the mark was real.
55:19He pulled out his fangs
55:20and kissed the wound.
55:22His touch was gentle.
55:24It made up for all
55:26the tenderness
55:27that came too late.
55:29He bent close
55:30and called me
55:31in a low voice.
55:32All of Wall Street
55:34knows now.
55:36His voice was low
55:37and carried something
55:38I had never heard
55:39from him before.
55:41You are my mate.
55:43I leaned against
55:44his chest
55:45and closed my eyes.
55:49Then you are mine too.
55:51His heartbeat
55:52struck my ear.
55:54I am yours.
55:57Outside the window,
55:59Manhattan's lights
56:00poured down
56:01from more than
56:0150 floors up.
56:03The city was bright
56:04and clear.
56:07I thought everything
56:08may have been set
56:09on that night
56:10when Pumpkin used
56:10my phone
56:11as a scratching pad.
56:12This hungry wolf
56:13from Wall Street
56:14had eaten me
56:15from head to toe.
56:16He did not plan
56:17to return even the bones.
56:19To be honest,
