Short filmTranscript
00:02I saved my mate's life, but he wanted me dead.
00:06The day Lucian became alpha, he stabbed me and dragged me to the beast pit.
00:11Korra should have been my Luna.
00:14You stole everything from her.
00:17Now die.
00:20The cage opened.
00:21Hundreds of starving beasts rushed toward me.
00:24My mate held another woman in his arms and smiled as he watched.
00:29Then I opened my eyes and found myself back on the day he needed me to save his life.
00:34This time, I smiled and walked away.
00:37As a beast calmer, I had always done everything to help my partner, Lucian.
00:41I had even saved his life once.
00:43But on the day he became alpha, but he stabbed me in the back.
00:49Korra is the one I love most.
00:51If you hadn't fought to steal her chance to save me back then, she'd be my Luna.
00:57Right now!
00:58Aren't you able to control beasts?
01:00I haven't eaten in three days.
01:02So go on.
01:03Let me see whether a bitch like you can control them.
01:06My little cat threw herself in front of me.
01:10But the beasts tore us both to shreds.
01:13My family was branded as traitors and sinners.
01:16And then I was reborn.
01:18Back to the morning when Lucian was surrounded by the beasts.
01:22The Luna gripped my hand tightly.
01:23Serena, I heard you can control beasts.
01:27Can you save Lucian?
01:28I shook my head immediately.
01:29Luna, I can't even calm a cat.
01:31I wouldn't dare risk the heir's life.
01:33I heard Korra already brought warriors to look for him.
01:36Lucian is the alpha heir.
01:38The moon goddess will protect him.
01:39This time, I wanted to see how Lucian would become alpha without my help.
01:43A scream echoed from deep within the forest.
01:46Everyone's faces turned tense.
01:48Soon, the warriors carried Lucian back.
01:50His entire body was covered in blood.
01:54Useless fools.
01:55This is how you protect my son?
01:57The alpha flew into a rage and stepped forward to punish them.
02:00Lucian stopped him.
02:01Father, if Korra and the warriors hadn't saved me, I wouldn't have survived.
02:05Don't blame them.
02:05The healers examined him and confirmed his life was no longer in danger.
02:10Only then did the alpha notice the crying Korra standing nearby.
02:13Loyal and brave.
02:14You risked your life for Lucian today.
02:17What reward do you want?
02:19I-
02:19Korra's cheeks flushed red as she stammered.
02:22I-
02:22She couldn't finish a single sentence.
02:25Father, Korra's too shy.
02:27Let me speak for her.
02:28I've desired her for a long time.
02:29Now I owe her my life.
02:31So I want her to become my mate.
02:33My future Luna.
02:45Son of a bitch.

05:30Anh em thấy mà hình tin nhắn không ?
05:31Dạ sau đó là tôi hẹn người ta là thứ ba đúng không ?
05:37Trước khi tôi đi tôi nói là thứ ba
05:39sau đó tôi còn nói với anh Thịnh là tôi cho gia hạn chậm nhất là thứ 6
05:44Mấy anh Toàn để nước tới chân
06:02Gasps instantly spread through the crowd.
06:04Cora was nothing more than a low-born Omega, the daughter of Lucian's nanny.
06:08Her bloodline alone meant she could never become a Luna.
06:11The Alpha's expression darkened.
06:13He looked at Lucian and slowly shook his head.
06:15Luna frowned.
06:16The heirs, Luna, is no small matter, you're the future Alpha, you need to understand that.
06:21Lucian answered firmly.
06:22I know my responsibilities as heir, but a throne is earned through strength, not bloodline.
06:28The moment those words left his mouth, the Alpha was completely enraged.
06:33Among wolf packs, noble bloodlines were everything, only the strongest blood could produce worthy heirs.
06:39Good, very bold, truly my son.
06:41Make the announcement.
06:43Cora will be the heir's mate.
06:44Set the date for the mating ceremony.
06:46The Alpha stormed away while Luna hurried after him.
06:49Lucian pulled Cora into his arms, his expression gentle.
06:53Cora, this time I'll never let go of your hand again.
06:55I watched them holding each other tightly.
06:57A cold smile curved across my lips before I turned and left.
07:01Stop!
07:01Lucian limped over to me and leaned close to my ear, lowering his voice, he said.
07:06Savine, I know you were reborn too.
07:08You were smart this time.
07:09You didn't steal Cora's spotlight.
07:10I admit I went too far in our last life.
07:13So this time, as long as you don't offend her, I can mark you too.
07:16I frowned my voice flat and icy.
07:18My father is the Alpha's right hand, and I'm his only daughter.
07:22Why would I become your mistress?
07:23I hid the truth about my rebirth.
07:25I didn't want any more entanglement with him.
07:27My gaze drifted to his mumbled leg.
07:30I couldn't help laughing softly.
07:32An Alpha heir who was about to lose both legs.
07:35Whoever wanted him could have him.
07:37I turned to leave.
07:38Lucian reached for me.
07:39But his footing slipped and he crashed heavily to the ground.
07:42Cora screamed his name.
07:44Lucian!
07:44I walked away without looking back.
07:49Gasps instantly spread through the crowd.
07:51Cora was nothing more than a low born Omega, the daughter of Lucian's mother.
07:57When I returned home, my family was there.
08:00Daisy jumped into my arms and rubbed her head against my chin.
08:03My eyes instantly filled with tears.
08:05The moon goddess had given me a second chance.
08:07I would never repeat the tragedy of my last life.
08:10The next morning, Cora burst into my room with red swollen eyes, completely hysterical.
08:15You were born with everything!
08:17Why are you still trying to steal Lucian from me?
08:20I'd give my life just to stay by his side.
08:23I won't let anyone get close to him!
08:25Still half asleep, I rubbed my eyes and stood up.
08:28When exactly was I fighting you for Lutrian?
08:31Cora glared at me viciously.
08:32What did you say to him yesterday?
08:34He kept calling your name in his sleep!
08:36I laughed.
08:37Didn't he tell you?
08:39He begged me to become his mate.
08:41Cora let out a shrill scream.
08:43Impossible!
08:44You bitch!
08:46You seduced him!
08:47She lunged at me, swinging a fist toward my face, sensing danger.
08:51Daisy instantly leapt off the vanity table.
08:54Her claws slashed straight across Cora's silk.
08:56Cora screamed and staggered backward.
08:59The heel caught on itself, and she crashed hard onto the floor.
09:02I was just about to tell a maid to help her when Lucian's roar exploded through the room.
09:08Selina! How dare you hurt her!
09:10One of my maids couldn't help speaking up.
09:12Lady Cora forced her way in and struck first.
09:15Daisy was only protecting the Selina.
09:17Lucian slammed the maid against the wall.
09:19Who allowed you to speak?
09:20His gaze fell on Daisy before flicking toward me.
09:23That mutt injured my future Luna.
09:25Selina.
09:26It deserves to die.
09:28My heart stopped.
09:29I immediately scooped Daisy into my arms.
09:32Alpha.
09:33Cora barged into my home.
09:35She attacked first.
09:37Was I supposed to stand there and let her kill me?
09:39A sneer curled across Lucian's lips.
09:42I'm the Alpha heir.
09:43The next Alpha.
09:45Cora will become your Luna.
09:47If she teaches you a lesson, you should be grateful.
09:49He lifted a hand.
09:51His warriors loosened their grip on the dog's leash.
09:53And the dog lunged towards me.
10:04Nooooo!
10:05Scenes from my previous life flashed before my eyes.
10:08The moment Lucian threw me into the last fight.
10:10Daisy's fur had stood on end as she forced herself to face those monsters.
10:14Shielding me with her tiny body.
10:16Why?
10:17Why?
10:17Even with a second chance?
10:19Could I still only watch her die in front of me?
10:21I forced down the pain, crushing my chest and glared at him.
10:25Lucian.
10:26She was protecting me.
10:27What did she do wrong?
10:29He took a step back, disgust flashing across his face.
10:33Then he gently covered Cora's eyes.
10:35Don't look, Cora.
10:36You'll dirty your eyes.
10:38Then he looked at me with contempt.
10:40Take this as a lesson.
10:41This time it's an animal.
10:43Next time it'll be you.
10:44Just because I'm willing to make you my mistress doesn't mean I like you.
10:48Don't think that gives you the right to order Cora around.
10:50You're only fit to be her servant.
10:52Then he left with Cora.
10:54I clenched my fists so tightly my nails bit into my palms.
10:57Forcing back my tears.
10:59Lucian.
10:59Again and again.
11:00You destroy everything I love.
11:02This time.
11:02I won't sit back and watch.
11:04You dream of making Cora your Luna.
11:06We'll see whether you even live long enough for that day.
11:09I carried Daisy's stiff body in my arms.
11:11And buried her myself in the garden.
11:13That grassy patch had been her favorite place to run.
11:16Now she could only lie there alone.
11:19The tears wouldn't stop falling.
11:21Then a long fingered hand appeared before me.
11:23Holding a neatly folded handkerchief.
11:25Cale.
11:26The Alpha's fourth son.
11:27Lucian hadn't been the only one in danger yesterday.
11:30Cale had been there too.
11:31In my last life.
11:32All I cared about was Lucian.
11:34I drove away the pieces for him alone.
11:36Cale had died with no one to help me.
11:39This time.
11:40I had deliberately sent him a signal.
11:42I told him to stay inside the cabin.
11:44And not wander off.
11:46Behind him sat crates.
11:48Filled with jewels and silk.
11:49Cale.
11:50Thank you for warning me yesterday.
11:52You saved my life.
11:54I took the handkerchief.
11:55Wiped my tears away.
11:56And looked straight into his eyes.
11:58Cale if you really want to repay me.
12:00Would you be willing to become my mate?
12:14Noooo.
12:15Scenes from my previous life flashed before my eyes.
12:17The moment listed were bringing into the last minute.
12:20Daisy's fur had stood on end as she forced herself.
12:24Noooo.
12:25Shock flashed across Cale's face.
12:27He clearly hadn't expected me to be so direct.
12:30Then he smiled.
12:31A trace of admiration in his eyes.
12:32Of course.
12:34Wait for me to come get you.
12:36A second later, he vanished.
12:38Fast as the wolf beneath his skin.
12:40The next morning, Cale came personally to formally propose to me.
12:43His manners were flawless, refined and respectful.
12:46It was obvious he truly valued me.
12:48Father was pleased.
12:49He had once hoped I would marry Lucian.
12:52But Lucian had publicly chosen a lowborn Omega in front of the entire pack.
12:56Father finally realized the heir could not be trusted.
12:59Compared to him, Cale was sincere.
13:01The mating ceremony was arranged quickly.
13:03Prates of gifts from Cale kept arriving one after another.
13:06The storage rooms were overflowing.
13:08Even the hallways were piled high with presents.
13:11And gifts should always be returned.
13:13So I went to the finest jewelry store in the city to pick something for him.
13:17The moment I stepped inside, a green belt caught my eye.
13:20Simple, striking, with three flawless emeralds set into the leather.
13:24I bought it and was preparing to leave.
13:26When I ran into Lucian and Cora, Lucian could barely stand steadily now.
13:30He looked sickly, a grey rot like shadows spreading beneath the skin.
13:35The moment he noticed the green belt in my hands, smug satisfaction flashed across his face.
13:41I heard your family's preparing for the upcoming ceremony.
13:43So all that nonsense before about not wanting to be my mistress was just you being petty.
13:48But let me warn you first.
13:49You'd better not outshine Cora.
13:51She's the future Luna.
13:52And that belt?
13:54You're too late.
13:55Cora already made me one herself.
13:57Keep yours.
13:58Seeing him defend her so openly, Cora covered her mouth and giggled.
14:02Lucian, just take it.
14:04You can always give it to one of the servants.
14:06Cora's right.
14:09Lucian reached for my gift box.
14:32I immediately stepped back to avoid his touch.
14:35This isn't for you.
14:36Not for me?
14:37Then who else could it possibly be for?
14:40Selina.
14:40Are you trying to get my attention again?
14:43He withdrew his hand, a cold smirk tugging at his lips.
14:46Fine.
14:47I won't expose your little act.
14:49I'm not interested in your gift anyway.
14:52He wrapped an arm around Cora and walked past me.
14:54I climbed into my car.
14:56Then suddenly, chaos erupted behind me.
14:58Cora's voice rang through the street.
15:00Lufian, what's wrong?
15:01Somebody help!
15:02Inside the car, I closed my eyes.
15:04Lucian, your punishment has finally arrived.
15:06The injuries from those beasts had looked horrifying, but they were never fatal.
15:10Lucian simply never took them seriously.
15:12What he didn't know was that the beasts driven by the rogue wolves carried a special venom.
15:17If he had listened to the healers, stayed in bed, and taken the antidote, he would have
15:21recovered without issue.
15:22But Cora had gone from a lowly Omega to the future Luna, the noble shield.
15:26Wolves looked down on her.
15:27And Lucian couldn't bear watching his girl suffer.
15:30So every day, he forced himself to accompany her everywhere, just to earn her respect within
15:35the pack.
15:36Eventually, whispers spread among the wolves.
15:39Cora's so lucky.
15:40What Cora didn't know was that her dignity had been bought with Lucian's life.
15:44When I returned home, I heard the palace was already in complete chaos.
15:48The heir to the wolf pack had collapsed on the street, hanging between life and death.
15:52The entire pack was shaken.
15:54That was when Cora appeared.
15:56A faint smile curved across his lips.
15:59Selina, would you like to see a show?
16:01Of course.
16:02Cal carried two bottles of rare syrup.
16:05Using the excuse of visiting the patient, he escorted me from the inner chamber.
16:09The healers swarmed around Lucian.
16:10They took turns trying everything they could.
16:12But he still wouldn't wake.
16:14Cora knelt on the floor, sobbing endlessly.
16:16At last, the Luna unleashed the fury she had been suppressing for days.
16:20She smashed everything in the room to the ground with deafening force.
16:23Her trembling finger pointed at Cora.
16:25After all, Lucian's wounds had not healed, but you still dragged him around to show him off.
16:36You caused this.
16:39Are you satisfied now?
16:41The healer said the wounds themselves weren't severe, but he never rested.
16:45And the venom spread through his bloodstream.
16:48He may lose both legs.
16:50Under the storm of accusation, Cora only felt wronged.
16:54My Luna, this isn't fair.
16:57Lucian pitted me.
16:58He wanted the others to respect me, so...
17:05Enough!
17:06The Alpha had just returned from Council.
17:08The moment he heard her excuse, he kicked her violently across the room.
17:12If you hadn't beswet Lucian, would he have treated his own body so scalpsily?
17:18He's barely consciousness.
17:20The mating ceremony is only days away, it's cancelled.
17:22Cora stared blankly at everything before her, unable to believe it was real.
17:26The Luna's residence was so close now.
17:28No one was supposed to take it from her.
17:31Before she could speak again, Lucian's weak voice drifted through the room.
17:36Father...
17:36Mother...
17:38Don't blame Cora.
17:40This was my choice.
17:42Please don't cancel the mating ceremony.
17:44I'll recover by then.
17:46I swear it, please!
17:47After a fit of coughing, Lucian slowly opened his eyes.
17:51Seeing this, the Alpha and Luna could no longer bring themselves to punish her further.
17:55The Alpha's voice turned cold and severe.
17:57Fine.
17:58Heal my son and the wedding will proceed.
18:02Fail.
18:03And your punishment will show no mercy.
18:06Cora nodded frantically, determination sharpening in her eyes.
18:10This was her last chance.
18:11And she would seize it, no matter what.
18:28Alpha and Luna left.
18:29Cora rushed to Lucian's side at once.
18:31She thought his waking up meant things were finally getting better.
18:35But moments later, he slipped back into unconsciousness.
18:38The healers wiped the sweat from their brows, their voices trembling.
18:42Air.
18:42He may not survive much longer.
18:46Liars!
18:47How dare you say that!
18:48He's the future Alpha!
18:50The Moon Goddess protects him!
18:52He swore he would mate with me!
18:53He would never leave me!
18:54Cora collapsed in despair.
18:55Yet I felt nothing but satisfaction.
18:58I walked over and looked down at her.
19:00Cora, you killed my Daisy.
19:02And now karma's come for you too.
19:05How does it feel?
19:06If Lucian dies, what happens to an unmated partner like you?
19:11Die alone?
19:12Or die with him?
19:13Cora jerked her head up and scrambled backward in panic.
19:16Shut up!
19:17He'll be fine!
19:18He has to be!
19:19I'll become his Luna!
19:21I always will!
19:22You just wait, bitch!
19:23On the day of the mating ceremony, the entire pack will be there watching.
19:27So what if you were born noble?
19:29One day you'll still have to call me Luna.
19:31I laugh.
19:32I'll be waiting for that day.
19:34Don't disappoint me.
19:36I turned and walked away.
19:37Cora cursed under her breath behind.
19:39I didn't hear it clearly.
19:41And I didn't care.
19:42Kyle had witnessed everything from the doorway.
19:44He didn't understand why I hated Lucian and Cora so deeply.
19:47But he restrained his curiosity and asked nothing.
19:50The mating ceremony drew closer.
19:52Yet Lucian still hadn't woken up.
19:54Rumors spread everywhere.
19:55The air was dying.
19:56The sheath.
19:57Wolves who once envied Cora now mocked her mercilessly while she was down.
20:01She cried herself to sleep every day.
20:04Out of options, she summoned every healer, witch doctor and street witch she could find,
20:09hoping some spell might drive her soul back.
20:12I secretly sent someone to hint to her about a street witch from the dark hollow coven,
20:17a forbidden circle hidden deep within the Shadowfang territories.
20:20Desperate, Cora sought the witch out in secret.
20:23In the end, the witch handed her a small black vial filled with silver-blue liquid.
20:28On the day of the mating ceremony, Cora stood alone beside Lucian's bed in a moon,
20:33white gown, a lunas crown adorning her hair.
20:36Lucian wore ceremonial robes for the bonding rite, his eyes tightly shut.
21:04That's all the daughters that were able to tours.
21:24Whispers swept through the pack like waves. Murmurs rose and fell among the crowd.
21:28Lucian's been unconscious for so long. Even the healers can't do anything,
21:32but Korra still won't give up. That's true love, isn't it?
21:34It's not love. She just wants to become Luna.
21:37If she really loved him, she wouldn't force him to mark her at a time like this.
21:41The Alpha wanted to cancel the ceremony. She begged him not to and swore she could heal Lucian.
21:47Alpha and Luna arrived as well. The Alpha's face was green.
21:51Korra, it's time. Lucian isn't waking up. The mating ceremony is cancelled. Everyone go home.
21:56No! Your Majesty, please wait a little longer! He'll wake up! He will!
22:01Korra pleaded desperately. The Alpha frowned.
22:03I've already shown you more mercy than I should have, except reality.
22:08Take that ceremonial gown off her!
22:11Korra clutched the gown tightly and refused to let anyone near her.
22:14Her eyes remained fixed on Lucian, filled with desperate hope.
22:17I waited silently, watching her fall apart, letting her taste the agony that had once consumed the
22:22final days of my life. Then Lucian's voice rang through the room.
22:25I'm not dead yet. How dare you treat Korra like this!
22:29The entire pack snapped their heads around in shock. Lucian, who had lain motionless just moments ago,
22:35suddenly sat up and climbed out of bed.
22:37Lucian woke up?
22:39Korra really brought him back?
22:40Looks like she's gonna become Luna after all.
22:42Alpha and Luna stared in stunned disbelief, caught between shock and joy.
22:47Korra shoved through the crowd and threw herself into his arms.
22:49I thought I'd lost you forever!
22:51Don't worry. I'm here. The mating ceremony is still on. Don't miss the timing.
22:56Hand in hand, they walked through the crowd.
22:58As Korra passed me, she lifted her chin with a smug, taunting look.
23:01I said nothing. I simply counted.
23:04Three, two, one...
23:06Time's up. Lucian had barely taken a step before he stumbled and collapsed.
23:12I said nothing. I said nothing. I said nothing.
23:13I said nothing. I said nothing. I said nothing.
23:30I didn't know what I meant to be. But I didn't know what I meant to have.
23:31Screams erupted instantly.
23:33His legs... There are so many shadow parasites!
23:36Not just his legs! There are more over there!
23:39He was fine just a second ago. How is this possible?
23:42Lucian swayed in dizziness. Thin black worms, dark as ink and fine as strands of hair.
23:48He wriggled out of his wounds and dropped onto the ground.
23:51Every single one emitted a faint silver glow.
23:54Forbidden parasites that fed specifically on wolf blood.
23:57The wound in his leg burned like fire.
23:59The pain spread rapidly, sinking into the bone before finally reaching his abdomen.
24:04Cora's eyes widened as she shook her head violently.
24:06How could this happen? The witch said he was cured!
24:08Alpha and Luna were still in shock over Lucian's recovery.
24:12Then this horrifying scene unfolded before them.
24:15Without servants supporting them, they could hardly stay standing.
24:19Ahila rushed forward and examined Lucian before letting out a heavy sigh.
24:23The Alpha heir has been cursed.
24:26How could this happen? Who cursed him?
24:28Cora lowered her head and slowly backed into the crowd.
24:31Kale suddenly shouted.
24:32Where do you think you're going?
24:34You were the one taking care of Lucian the whole time.
24:37No one knows better than you how he ended up cursed.
24:41Cora had always been timid and weak by nature.
24:43That single shout shattered her completely.
24:45She dropped to her knees and confessed everything.
24:47It was supposed to be a miraculous treatment.
24:49A street witch taught it to me.
24:51She said the potion could bring the dead back to life.
24:54It was supposed to be a miracle.
24:56I never thought it would turn Lucian into this.
24:58You all saw it yourselves.
25:00He moved like a healthy wolf just now.
25:02That means the treatment worked.
25:03My fears were right.
25:05The healer said grimly.
25:06The poison restores strength temporarily, but the shadow parasites slowly eat the body away.
25:12In the end, the entire body rots into pulp.
25:20Lies. That's not true.
25:21Cora shook her head frantically.
25:23That's not true.
25:24Lucian stared at her, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.
25:28Her face was still so soft, so innocent.
25:30Looking.
25:31He could not believe she would do this to him.
25:33They found the witch, she cried.
25:35Alpha!
25:36Spare me!
25:37This was all that lady's idea!
25:39I warned her!
25:40How dangerous it was!
25:41I begged her to give up!
25:42She wouldn't listen.
25:44She said it didn't matter what the heir became afterward.
25:47As long as he completed the mating ceremony.
25:50Agony.
25:50Those words shattered the last scraps of trust and pity Lucian still held for Cora.
25:55Bitch!
25:56Why would you do this to me?
25:57I got injured waiting for you to save me.
26:00And now you've destroyed everything.
26:03If only I had chosen differently.
26:06Agony filled his face as he searched the crowd for him.
26:08Only now did regret finally consume him.
26:12Lucian collapsed to the crowd.
26:13The healer informed the Alpha that Lucian was beyond saving.
26:16The Alpha ordered Cora imprisoned.
26:18What had begun as a lively mating ceremony ended in chaos and shouting.
26:22Kyle and I turned to leave, but Lucian grabbed the hem of my dress.
26:26His hoarse, weakening voice echoed behind me.
26:29Selina.
26:30Selina, don't go.
26:31His eyes were red with regret.
26:33I was blind.
26:34Only now do I finally see what Cora really is.
26:36She lied to me from the very beginning.
26:39I thought she truly loved me.
26:40I never imagined she only wanted to become Luna.
26:43Now I understand.
26:44You were the only one who truly loved me.
26:47I was wrong.
26:48Give me one more chance.
26:50Forgive me.
26:51You're still my Luna.
26:52I almost laughed out loud.
26:54He actually believed a simple apology could erase everything I had suffered.
26:57He had to be dreaming.
27:09I pried Lucian's hand away from my dress.
27:11Alpha, once glass shatters, it can never be made whole again.
27:15Regret can't buy back anything.
27:17On the day Cael and I bonded, the ceremonial cave overflowed with guests.
27:21Moonlight poured through cracks in the dome above, bathing the entire altar in silver.
27:25Kyle personally escorted me to the carriage, dressed in dark, grey ceremonial robes.
27:31He took my hand and gently brushed his thumb across my palm.
27:35Nervous?
27:35Not at all.
27:37Liar.
27:37I can hear your heartbeat.
27:39I couldn't help laughing.
27:40He bent down and straightened my skirt from me.
27:43The procession departed beneath the pack's cheers and songs and blessings surging around us like waves.
27:49Then suddenly, the road ahead was blocked.
27:51Selina, without my permission, how dare you mate with another wolf.
27:56Lucian sat slumped in the wheelchair, Gaunt and Hollow Knight.
27:59The surrounding werewolves lowered their voices as they whispered.
28:03What happened to the alpha heir?
28:04Wasn't he still walking around with his mate not long ago?
28:07The one bonding today is Lady Ashfield.
28:09What does she have to do with him?
28:10Haven't you heard?
28:12Lucian forced a servant girl into the lunar residence and even tried to make Lady Ashfield his mistress.
28:17That's not even half of it.
28:19The heir ended up ruined because of the woman he chose.
28:22Lucian's expression darkened more and more with every word.
28:25But he no longer had the strength to argue.
28:27All his attention remained fixed on him.
28:30Selina, you once told me that in this life and the next, you would always be my mate.
28:36His voice was coarse, filled with sick desperation.
28:39Thanks to the medicine you sent, the healers said I'm out of danger now.
28:41I'll recover completely soon.
28:43Let me make it up to you, Krait.
28:44I looked at him.
28:45Once upon a time, those eyes could have made me die willingly for him.
28:49Now they only felt cold.
28:51Alpha, I already told you.
28:52There will never be anything between us again.
28:55No.
28:55You still love me.
28:57Otherwise, why would you personally help me choose that belt?
29:07I paused.
29:08The entire thing was absurd.
29:10Even now, he was still lying to himself, clinging to a belt like it was his last hope.
29:14Beside me, Kyle calmly opened his coat, revealing a flash of dark green at his waist.
29:19Lucian, are you talking about this one?
29:21Shock flooded Lucian's face.
29:23Kyle glanced down at the belt and spoke evenly.
29:26Sorry to disappoint you.
29:27Selina picked this out for me.
29:29The size fits perfectly.
29:30Lucian froze completely.
29:32That's impossible.
29:33How could you decide to mate with him so quickly?
29:35You sent me medicine.
29:37You still care about me.
29:39He stared at me stubbornly.
29:40I leaned close to his ear, my voice soft enough that only he could hear.
29:44Death isn't the scary part.
29:46Living is the real punishment.
29:48Lucian, enjoy your nightmare.
29:50He closed his eyes and slumped back into adventure.
29:53Kael gave a faint wave, signaling for the servants to wheel him away.
29:57Along the road, the stench of rot drifting from Lucian's wounds made nearby walls instinctively cover their noses and step
30:04back.
30:05Kyle turned toward me.
30:06Come on, don't let him ruin our day.
30:08He simply extended his hand.
30:10Gently, I placed my hand in us.
30:12The procession observed.
30:13Moonlight spilled across the road like a silver carpet laid down by the goddess herself.
30:18I leaned against Kal's shoulder, listening to the wheels roll over ground.
30:22One arm wrapped around me, while his other hand gently stroked my back.
30:26Behind us, the name that had once caused me unbearable pain faded farther and farther into the moonlight until it
30:33disappeared completely.
30:34Kael, thank you.
30:36He said nothing.
30:38He only pulled me a little closer.
30:49Dim lighting, a warm room.
30:51Our first night after bonding belonged only to us.
30:54Kael was far more passionate than his gentle appearance suggested.
30:58Like a wolf who had finally gotten what he longed for.
31:02He was patient, focused, and tireless.
31:04I rubbed my aching shoulder and begged hoarsely for mercy before he finally relented.
31:09Even then, he still kept me tightly wrapped in his arms, his chin resting against the top of my head.
31:14At dawn, half asleep in his embrace, I asked without thinking.
31:18Back then, why did you agree so quickly to make me your mate?
31:21Kael let out a low chuckle.
31:23You're only asking now?
31:25I've had a crush on you for ten years.
31:27I always hoped my mate would be you.
31:30Holding me in his arms, he slowly told me stories I had never known.
31:34Years ago, at that grand full moon ball, he saw me for the first time.
31:40The hall had been crowded with guests.
31:42Yet after one glance, he could never look away again.
31:44But back then, my eyes had only been on Lucian.
31:47He never forced his way into my life.
31:49He simply stayed in the shadows, silently protecting me.
31:52Even in my previous life, it had been the same.
31:54The reason I managed to reach the hunting grounds in time and drive away the beasts was because of me.
31:59Before I arrived, he had shifted into wolf form and acted as bait, leading the fiercest beasts away by himself.
32:06In that lifetime, he died in those hunting grounds.
32:09My vision blurred instantly.
32:11In my previous life, he had died because of me, and I had never even known.
32:15Kael, I'm sorry.
32:18He tightened his arms around me, his lips brushing my forehead.
32:22You have nothing to apologize for.
32:23Being able to become your mate made everything worth it.
32:26I buried my face against his chest as silent tears soaked into his shirt.
32:30He said nothing.
32:31He only patted my back over and over.
32:34As though comforting a child who had cried herself exhausted.
32:37Thank the moon goddess.
32:39This time, we didn't miss each other.
32:51Married life was peaceful beyond belief.
32:53Kyle had a habit he could never seem to break.
32:55Every morning before I woke up, he would place a fresh evening primrose beside my pillow.
33:00So when I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was always that half-bloom flower still carrying traces
33:05of morning dew.
33:06Whenever I read, he liked sneaking up behind me and resting his chin lightly on my shoulder.
33:11Without saying a word, he would quietly stay there until I finished the entire page.
33:15His breathing against my neck was warm and steady.
33:17One time, I didn't turn the page for nearly fifteen minutes.
33:21Are you actually reading?
33:22He finally asked.
33:23I'm enjoying the feeling of you leaning against me.
33:25His ears turned red, an alpha-blooded wolf nearly six feet tall, actually blushed because of one sentence.
33:31I laughed so hard I nearly fell out of the chair.
33:33Embarrassed and annoyed, he scooped me up effortlessly, threw me over his shoulder, and headed straight for the bedroom.
33:39What are you doing?
33:40Put me down.
33:42No more reading.
33:43Sleep.
33:44Kale.
33:45Quiet.
33:46He said quiet, but his tone was full of affection.
34:06On nights of the full moon, we loved running together in the mountains behind the territory.
34:11When Kale shifted into wolf form, his fur turned a rare silver, gray that almost seemed to glow beneath the
34:16moon back.
34:17His wolf was far larger than an ordinary alphys, his shoulders nearly reaching my chest.
34:22When he ran, every movement was graceful and fierce, but in front of me, the huge silver
34:27wolf would crouch obediently, rubbing his head against my palm like an affectionate
34:31puppy.
34:31I loved burying my face in the thick, soft fur around his mouth.
34:35His body temperature was always warm, like a living room.
34:38I shifted into wolf form too, and we ran side by side.
34:41Under the moonlight, two figures, one silver, one white raced across the mountain range.
34:47When we grew tired, we would lie beside each other, on top of the rocks, overlooking the
34:51entire territory.
34:52Countless lights glittered below us like shattered moonlight scattered across the earth.
34:56He shifted back into human form, barefoot on the grass, as moonlight traced silver edges
35:02along his silhouette.
35:03Kael, when you become alpha someday, will you still run with me like this?
35:06He looked at me seriously, his gaze open and steady.
35:09In front of everyone else, I'm the alpha.
35:11In front of you, I'll always just be your Kael.
35:13I turned my face away so he wouldn't see my reddening eyes.
35:16In this lifetime, I finally understood what it felt like to be cherished.
35:20Yet beneath that peace, news about Lucian still reached us from time to time.
35:24His legs were completely ruined now.
35:25He could only remain bedridden.
35:27His wounds had to be treated three times a day.
35:30Though the shadow parasites had been removed, the silver poison had sunk deep into his bones
35:34and could never be reversed.
35:36When summer arrived, the smell of decay filled his entire hole.
35:39Servants rotated shifts, caring for him, fritting their teeth before entering.
35:43Worst of all, Korra's treatment had left him completely infertile.
35:48He would never have an heir.
36:11The storm from the council finally arrived.
36:13High ranking officials jointly petitioned the alpha to appoint a new heir.
36:17The alpha pitied Lucian, but no one understood the laws of the pack better than he did.
36:22The weak were unfit to lead the strong.
36:24How could a king confine to a wheelchair rule over thousands of wolves?
36:27Of all his sons, only Kael was worthy of the position.
36:31Kael, from this day forward, you are the new alpha.
36:35The alpha declared.
36:36Kael knelt on one knee and accepted the silver token engraved with the wolf crest.
36:41His gaze passed over the gathered officials before finally settling on him.
36:45The decree stripping Lucian of his title arrived at his door.
36:49That very day, Lucian smashed everything within each beside his head.
36:53That was the final blow.
36:54He ordered servants to wheel him to the dungeon.
36:57He wanted to see Korra.
36:58The dungeon was damp and dark.
37:00Korra curled in the corner.
37:02Her clothes tattered and her hair tangled into knots.
37:05Only her eyes still shone with the madness that quartered on his head.
37:09The sound of wheelchair wheels echoed down the corridor.
37:12Korra looked up when she saw him.
37:15Her lips twisted into a strange smile.
37:17You came.
37:18It's because of you.
37:19Lucian's voice was hoarse and cold.
37:21If not for you, I never would have ended up like this.
37:24This is all your fault.
37:26His hands closed around her throat.
37:28You should die!
37:28But there was no strength left in him.
37:31Korra shoved him away, effortlessly.
37:33The wheelchair slammed into the wall with a dull crash.
37:59Korra stared at Lucian's broken state and suddenly burst into light.
38:03The sound was sharp and shrill, echoing endlessly through the empty dungeon.
38:07My fault?
38:08Her eyes widened.
38:10You were the one who couldn't hold on.
38:11If you'd lost it just a little longer, if we'd completed the bonding ceremony, I'd be
38:16Luna by now.
38:17Her voice climbed higher and higher, growing hysterical.
38:20I'm his Luna!
38:22I'm his Luna!
38:24I'm his Luna!
38:25I am his Luna!
38:26Only now did Lucian finally realize how foolish he would be.
38:30For this woman, he had personally pushed Selina.
38:33And from beginning to end, this woman had never loved him, only the position he held.
38:38He turned his wheelchair around and left without another glance.
38:41Kyle's official Alpha ceremony would take place three days later.
38:44That night, I helped him straighten his ceremonial doors, standing before the mirror, the wall
38:50and unusual spirits especially.
38:52What's wrong?
38:52I asked.
38:53I never imagined my life would leave me here.
38:55It's okay.
38:56I'll be with you.
38:57During the ceremony, the silver Luna crown was placed upon my head as moonlight poured through
39:01the cave ceiling.
39:02The entire pack lowered their heads in unison.
39:05Deep growls of submission were all the way about the way.
39:08At the very back of the crowd, Lucian sat in his wheelchair in the furthest corner.
39:12Everyone else bowed their heads.
39:14Only he looked up, his eyes filled with pain and regret.
39:17If Korra hadn't destroyed him, the one standing here today shouldn't be me.
39:21After the ceremony, he was moved out of the royal chambers and relocated to a small cabin
39:26outside the territory game.
39:27The door closed behind him from that day onward.
39:30No one ever visited again.
39:40Life after becoming Luna grew busier, but Kale never once made me feel alone.
39:44During the day, he handled pack affairs.
39:46No matter how busy he was, he always came home before evening.
39:49Sometimes, while I sat reading medical texts in the study, he would deliberately peek his
39:53head through the doorway.
39:55He always did that, never interrupting, never rushing me, just quietly staying nearby.
39:59Sometimes, when I looked up, I would find him asleep on the sofa, still holding a half-red
40:04territorial report.
40:05Whenever I covered him with a blanket, he would unconsciously grab my wrist in his sleep.
40:09Don't go.
40:09I'm right here.
40:11I'm not going anywhere.
40:12One afternoon, heavy rain suddenly poured down.
40:15He returned soaked from head to toe, yet held a paper package carefully against his chest.
40:19What's that?
40:20He handed it to me.
40:21Inside was a silver hand-woven ribbon with a tiny moonstone dangling from the tassel.
40:25I saw it at the market, thought it would look nice with your white dress.
40:29You got drouched for a ribbon?
40:30Not exactly.
40:32It was on the way.
40:33He was obviously lying.
40:34The market was on the opposite side of the territory from where he'd gone.
40:38I stared at the ribbon and suddenly felt my nose sting.
40:41He immediately panicked.
40:42You don't like it?
40:43I can exchange it-
40:44I love it.
40:45I interrupted, tying the ribbon around my wrist.
40:48I really love it.
40:49He relaxed at once, smiling like a boy who'd just been praised.
40:53That night, we lay side by side listening to the rain outside the window.
40:57Kale, I think I must have been blind before.
41:01Yeah, you really were.
41:03Couldn't you at least comfort me?
41:05Comfort you for what?
41:06You're telling the truth.
41:07Hit him.
41:07I reached over to hit him.
41:08He laughed and dodged before pulling me back into his arms again.
41:11But it's okay.
41:12He murmured softly in the darkness.
41:14You see me now.
41:16That's enough.
41:30You see me now.
41:49.
42:19.
42:49.
43:19.
43:20.
43:20.
43:21.
43:21.
43:21.
43:21.
43:22.
43:23.
43:25.
43:44The day Lucian moved out, I went to see him off.
43:48Morning fog still lingered as his wheelchair sat outside the cabin.
43:51The servants carried out the last box and left quickly.
43:54Hearing footsteps, he slowly looked up.
43:56When he realized it was me, a trace of hope flashed across his withered face.
44:00Selina, so in the end, you still care about me?
44:03I shook my head, a victor smile curling at my face.
44:06You're wrong, Lucian.
44:07I only came to see how your story ends.
44:10His expression froze.
44:11I crouched down until we were eye-loving.
44:13You still don't know, do you?
44:15That so-called Korra found from the witch, I arranged all of it.
44:18His pupils shrank violently.
44:19From the very beginning, I was the one who wanted you dead.
44:22My voice remained calm and clear.
44:24I bribed the witch.
44:25I was the one who told Korra the medicine could temporarily restore your strength.
44:29Selina.
44:30His lips trembled.
44:31So it was you all along.
44:32Why?
44:33Just because of what happened in the previous life?
44:34That's right.
44:36A blood Jetsby repays.
44:38Some debts can only be settled with a life.
44:40But they're all alive now, aren't they?
44:41He asked in confusion.
44:43They're alive.
44:43I stood and looked down at him.
44:45But what you did can never be erased.
44:46The pain was real.
44:48It already happened, and you have to pay for it.
44:50I turned away.
44:51Kael leaned against the nearby tree, waiting for it.
44:54Morning sunlight filtered through the leaves, scattering broken patches of light across it.
44:58When he saw me approaching, he asked nothing.
45:00He simply held out his hand naturally.
45:02I placed mine in his.
45:04Is it over?
45:05Yes.
45:05It's over.
45:06Hand in hand, we walked deeper into the territory.
45:09Sunlight gradually pierced through the fog, illuminating the road ahead.
45:13Behind us, the cabin door slowly closed.
45:15And Lucian, like a lone wolf cast out from the pack, spent the rest of his life rotting
45:20away in regret and decay.
45:21First, the two inches away from the day.
45:22That will make me smile, because of the way.
45:26Then you make me smile every day.
45:27Have a smile every day.
45:27Look, what's the place?
45:29I see.
45:29Do you know what the place is?
45:30When your eyes are up and I see it's not been in regret.
