Pregnant with Eight Alpha Pups

Short filmTranscript
00:00Miss Carter, you're pregnant with eight wolf pups, and all eight gestational sacks are developing perfectly.
00:05When Dr. Emily delivered the news, her face glowing with delight, only one thought remained in my mind.
00:10My alpha, Alexander Black, couldn't even spare me a second glance.
00:13How could he possibly want these eight children?
00:15The examination room was kept at a constant chill, yet my entire body was trembling.
00:19Three years into my marriage with Alexander, our mate Bond existed in name only.
00:23He was the alpha of the New York Black Pack.
00:25His bloodline dominance, making every werewolf on the East Coast tremble in awe.
00:30While I was just an ordinary werewolf from the Midwest, my father didn't even belong to a fixed pack.
00:35Back then, he had mistakenly entered my room during the Full Moon Charity Gala,
00:39lost control under the Full Moon's power, and marked me.
00:44The next day, a rival pack captured evidence of the incident, forcing us into a mate Bond.
00:50Three years of marriage, we lived in the same den, yet were more distant than strangers.
00:53The entire black pack was whispered behind my back that I was scheming, deliberately luring the alpha to mark me
00:58on the night of the Full Moon.
00:59At this year's winter pack Bannequit, after drinking too much of the moon goddess's niche, we had our one and
01:04only true mating.
01:05Although the she-wolves in my family were famous for multiple births, my mother had twins, my aunt had triplets.
01:11I had never imagined I would conceive pups, let alone eight at once.
01:15If Alexander refused to acknowledge these eight children, how would the black pack treat the bloodline I had born?
01:20Should I leave with eight pups? But their wolf milk, meat, territory, education, which of these wasn't an astronomical expense?
01:27In New York, I had no one to rely on. What could I possibly use to raise them?
01:31The more I thought about it, the heavier my heart became, pressing down on me until I could barely breathe.
01:35The more I thought about it, the heavier my heart became, pressing down on me until I could barely breathe.
01:39I stumbled out of the examination room, just as I returned to the den in the Upper East Side.
01:44Before I could even compose myself, Alexander's assistant, Charles, delivered the documents to dissolve our mate bond.
01:50Immediately after, I received a message from Alexander.
01:53200 million gold pounds signed to dissolve the bond. Never appear before me again.
02:00Reading those words, I froze.
02:02The next second, I laughed out loud.
02:05The heaviness lifted instantly.
02:07This is absolutely perfect! 200 million!
02:11Not only could I raise eight wolf pups, I could send every one of them to the finest wolf academies.
02:15With this money, why would I care about being Luna of the Black Pack?
02:19Why would I care whether Alexander liked me?
02:21Whether high-ranking wolves looked down on me?
02:23I could take my children away from this suffocating city.
02:26Live truly free.
02:28Never having to watch anyone's expression again.
02:30I had Charles arrange the transfer right then.
02:33Before his eyes, I signed my name on the dissolution.
02:35Elizabeth Carter.
02:36Without a moment's hesitation.
02:38Returning to the empty penthouse den, I packed only my personal belongings.
02:41Three years, I'd lived simply.
02:43The silver jewelry, moonstones, high-grade pelts the Black Pack had given me, I touched none of it.
02:48Everything remained exactly as it was in the dressing room.
02:50What wasn't mine, I wouldn't take.
02:52I tucked the check and dissolution papers away, grabbed my suitcase, and walked calmly out of Black Tower.
02:57The Alpha Pack that once seemed so unattainable now looked like nothing but passing smoke.
03:01From this day forward, there was no more Elizabeth, Luna of the Black Pack.
03:04Only Elizabeth Carter and the eight wolf pups.
03:07Later, the news spread like wildfire across the entire city and the pack's territory.
03:11Alexander Black, that iron-blooded alpha, had suddenly descended into madness.
03:16Mobilize all pack warriors and every resource within the territory immediately.
03:19Find her! You must find her!
03:21If you fail, no one will escape unscathed.
03:24He was frantically searching for his ex-wife who had taken away his vast fortune and eight children.
03:35You'll never escape from my grasp.
03:39Stepping through Black Tower's doors, I hailed a cab straight to the downtown Wolf Bank.
03:43I converted Alexander's 200 million gold pound check into a withdrawable gold card, tucking it carefully into my inner pocket.
03:49This was my future and my eight children's security.
03:51Not a single detail could be careless.
03:53Card secured.
03:54I went directly to the airline's Wolf exclusive counter and booked a first-class ticket to Miami.
03:57Miami was territory held by another pack.
03:59Warm and climate, far enough from New York.
04:01Then I rented the most luxurious SUV from a car dealership.
04:04Perfect for long-distance travel.
04:06Behind the wheel, I went straight to my parents.
04:08They ran a remote restaurant in New Jersey.
04:10Having moved from the Midwest years ago with me in tow.
04:12About an hour's drive from my place, I'd reach them before dark.
04:15When Mom and Dad saw me, their faces lit with joy.
04:17But seeing me alone, dragging a suitcase, their smiles froze.
04:21Their wolf instincts sensed something was terribly wrong.
04:23Learning the Alpha had demanded bond dissolution.
04:25My mother's eyes reddened instantly.
04:27She clutched my hand, wiping tears continuously.
04:29My father was worse.
04:30His wolf pupil snapped vertical with fury.
04:32He grabbed the antler cane and headed out.
04:34That bastard Alpha, even if he never truly loved you, he shouldn't treat you this way.
04:39I'm going to teach that arrogant fool a lesson.
04:41Knock some sense into him.
04:42No one treats my little girl like this and walks away free.
04:47I rushed to stop him, speaking softly.
04:50Dad, don't go.
04:52Dissolving the bond is actually a relief for me.
04:55He gave me 200 million gold pounds, enough for our family to live well forever.
04:59I have eight pups in my belly.
05:00I can't risk the children.
05:02Besides, Alexander's in Europe handling pack affairs.
05:04He isn't even in New York.
05:06If we make a scene now, other packs will just laugh at us.
05:09It's not worth it.
05:10Father retracted his wolf pupils and nodded, agreeing to leave with me.
05:13Now I have money.
05:14Now I have pups.
05:16Leaving this city of suffocating grievances was the best choice for all of us.
05:19We packed our simple luggage.
05:20The three of us climbed into the car and drove toward the airport.
05:23This city's glamour and its scheming would never concern us again.
05:26Meanwhile, at Black Manor, another drama was unfolding.
05:29Delivering those dissolution papers.
05:30And that check had never been Alexander's idea at all.
05:33It was his sister, Victoria Ashton.
05:37Victoria had been brought into the Black Pack as a child by the old madam to be raised.
05:40She shared no blood with Alexander.
05:42But she loved him obsessively, viewing me as her lifelong enemy.
05:45She knew Alexander was in Europe handling border conflicts.
05:48That Black Manor was under the old madam's temporary management.
05:50She knew I was just an ordinary wolf.
05:52That our marriage three years ago had been nothing but a reluctant measure to save face.
05:55She assumed I was clinging to the alpha's side for sheer persistence.
05:58She seized the opportunity.
06:00She had a pack beta mimic Alexander's tone to compose the message.
06:03Bribed Charles to deliver the dissolution papers to me.
06:05She expected that a common she-wolf like me, having finally become Luna, would throw a tantrum upon dissolution.
06:10Crying.
06:11Screaming.
06:12Refusing to leave.
06:13Then she would step forward, pretending to mediate.
06:15Displaying her grace and composure.
06:17The pack would despise me further.
06:18Drive me from their territory completely.
06:20And she could seamlessly take my place as Luna.
06:22She calculated everything, everything except my true heart.
06:25Victoria was accompanying the Black Old Madam for afternoon tea in the manor garden.
06:29Pouring full moon Osmanthus tea while making snide remarks about me.
06:31Grandmother, don't worry.
06:33A she-wolf like Elizabeth from some ordinary Midwest pack.
06:37Finally becoming Luna.
06:38She'd never leave willingly when dissolved.
06:40She'll cry and make a scene.
06:42I'll go consult her then.
06:43Give her a way out.
06:44It'll show the Black Pack's generosity.
06:49The Old Madam sat in her wicker chair, fingers lightly tracing the wolf-toothed necklace at her throat.
06:53A gift from her deceased old Alpha on their 50th anniversary.
06:56A sneer touched her lips, her tone cold.
06:58Hmph.
06:59An ordinary she-wolf from the Midwest daring to occupy the Luna position.
07:03Being driven away is what she deserves.
07:05Just then, the maid Mary came rushing over, panic-stricken.
07:09Old Madam Miss Ashton.
07:10Miss Carter is gone.
07:11She only packed a few personal suitcases.
07:13The moonstone jollery, the high-grade silverware in the den.
07:16She took nothing.
07:17She just walked out of Black Tower like that.
07:20Victoria's hand holding the bone china cup paused slightly.
07:22Surprise flickered in her eyes.
07:24She hadn't expected me to leave so cleanly.
07:26Then she resumed her elegant, composed expression, a contemptuous smile curling her lips.
07:30In her heart, she simply thought I was putting on an act.
07:33But the Old Madam's face changed instantly.
07:35Her hand gripping the cup shook violently.
07:37The cup clattered against the saucer.
07:39Deep red tea splashing out, soaking the white tablecloth.
07:42She stared at Mary in disbelief, her voice cracking.
07:45What did you say?
07:46She just left?
07:47All those valuable things in the black pack, she touched nothing?
07:52Mary was frightened by the Old Madam's reaction, nodding repeatedly.
07:56It's true, Old Madam.
07:57We all saw clearly.
07:59Miss Carter only took her own suitcases.
08:01She touched nothing else.
08:02Old Madam shot up from her chair, gripping Mary's arm, hurrying toward the penthouse den I'd occupied.
08:07Victoria followed close behind, her face maintaining its proper expression.
08:10But unease flickered deep in her eyes.
08:12She was beginning to suspect things had escaped her control.
08:15My room had always been simple.
08:16Now it was utterly empty.
08:18Nothing on the nightstand.
08:19The dressing table clean.
08:20No skincare products.
08:21No jewelry.
08:22In the dressing room, the high-grade custom gowns.
08:25Limited edition wolf fur shawls.
08:26Complete sets of moonstone accessories.
08:28All hung neatly in their original places.
08:30Not one piece missing.
08:31Only my few everyday clothes had vanished without a trace.
08:34The Old Madam immediately ordered the housekeeper to inventory the den's valuables.
08:37Minutes later, the housekeeper reported,
08:40Miss Carter had taken only what belonged to her.
08:42Not a penny of other wealth had been touched.
08:44The Old Madam stood in the empty room, her face shifting between green and white, chest heaving,
08:48finally forcing out.
08:50Grateful rest.
08:51Leave if you want.
08:52Putting on what show of integrity.
08:54But in her heart, she knew better than anyone.
08:56She'd always despised me most.
08:58Always believed I clung to the black pack for power and wealth.
09:00Now I'd left cleanly, taking nothing of their riches.
09:03It was like a resounding slap across her face.
09:05The surrounding wolf servants kept their heads down, not daring to breathe.
09:09But inwardly they were shocked.
09:10No one had expected this luna they'd secretly looked down upon to have such backbone.
09:16Victoria hurried forward, gently supporting the Old Madam's arm, her voice perfectly tender.
09:20Old Madam, don't anger yourself into illness.
09:23Elizabeth leaving is her own lack of fortune.
09:25I'll be here to accompany you from now on.
09:27She spoke while handing over a neatly folded linen handkerchief.
09:30So well behaved and sensible that not a single fault could be found.
09:33The Old Madam's expression softened slightly.
09:35She sighed, patting Victoria's hand.
09:37You're still the considerate one.
09:39A hundred times better than that Elizabeth.
09:41She talked a good game about not wanting pack things.
09:44But didn't she still take Alexander's 200 million gold pounds?
09:47In the end, she's still greedy for money.
09:49At these words, Victoria's smile froze instantly.
09:52200 million?
09:53She went rigid, blood seeming to freeze in her veins.
09:56She'd only bribed Alexander's beta assistant Charles.
09:58Had him mimic Alexander's tone to send the message and deliver the dissolution papers.
10:02From beginning to end, she had no authority to touch Alexander's private treasury, let alone
10:06200 million in gold pounds.
10:08Where had that money come from?
10:09A terrible thought exploded in her mind.
10:11Overwhelming panic swept through her.
10:13Her original plan was for me to throw a tantrum after dissolution, make everyone despise me,
10:17so she could smoothly replace me as Luna.
10:19But now I'd left elegantly.
10:21Taking 200 million gold pounds and vanishing completely, everything had deviated from her
10:25control.
10:26Victoria forcibly suppressed the panic in her heart, continuing to smile.
10:29But her fingertips were already ice cold.
10:33By this time, I had already arrived in Miami with my parents.
10:36This coastal city was warm and humid, its pace slow, without New York's oppression or
10:40the pack's internal scheming.
10:41Exactly the haven I wanted.
10:43When the pups were born, I'd watch them grow, teach them the moon goddess's guidance, give
10:47them the best life.
10:48Never again watching anyone's expression.
10:50Never again wronging myself.
10:52Such days were 10,000 times more precious than any alpha mate status.
10:55Time passed in the blink of an eye.
10:57Six months, I nurtured my pregnancy peacefully in Miami.
11:00My belly grew day by day.
11:02The eight pups developed exceptionally healthily.
11:04On full moon nights, I could even feel their slight restlessness in my womb, the instinct
11:08of wolf fetuses.
11:09Each day I walked, read the moon goddess scriptures, prepared tiny clothes and wolf fur blankets
11:13for the pups.
11:14Days were plain yet blissful.
11:16Meanwhile, far away in New York, Alexander finally returned after half a year of European
11:20pack boundary negotiations.
11:23He just landed in private airspace, dressed in a black custom suit, his brows cold, radiating
11:28the unique pressure of an alpha.
11:30Charles waited early at the landing pad, face pale, palms sweating, the beta's wolf instinct
11:34making him dread the coming alpha fury.
11:36Alexander slid into the car, speaking flatly.
11:39What happened in the pack these six months explained clearly.
11:41His voice was low and calm, yet the air in the car instantly froze into ice.
11:44Charles stiffened in terror, voice trembling.
11:47Black Alpha, your mate Miss Elizabeth signed the dissolution and left.
11:53Alexander's eyes darkened, his surrounding wolf pressure making the entire space feel
11:56colder.
11:57He'd never intended to dissolve the bond.
11:59Never had anyone deliver dissolution papers.
12:01The car returned to Black Manor.
12:03Entering the study, a neatly folded dissolution paper lay quietly on the desk.
12:07Alexander looked down.
12:09At the signature line, the handwriting was clean and decisive.
12:11A Elizabeth Carter.
12:12The chill in Alexander's eyes could have frozen the entire room.
12:15He picked up the dissolution paper from the desk, his thumb slowly tracing the clean signature
12:19at the bottom, his voice sinking like a winter anvil.
12:22Explain.
12:24Now.
12:27Black Alpha, it was Miss Ashton who used your name to send Miss Carter the message, forced
12:34me to deliver the dissolution papers to her.
12:38She deceived Miss Carter into thinking it was your wish, made her leave.
12:42Get out.
12:43Submit a written review to the PAC finance department.
12:46Forfeit this year's entire gold pound to lock it.
12:49Then report to the border warehouse.
12:52Charles fled as if granted amnesty, quickly exiting the study and closing the door without looking
12:57back.
12:59Only Alexander remained in the room.
13:01Victoria's scheming, grandmother's favoritism, Charles's disloyalty, all fueled his rage.
13:06But what made his chest feel tight was Elizabeth's departure.
13:09Three years ago, at that full moon charity gala, he drunk too much moon goddess honey wine.
13:13Human consciousness was overwhelmed by wolf nature.
13:16He stumbled into her room, marking her uncontrollably.
13:19The next morning, panic filled her brows, yet mixed with stubbornness.
13:22That stubbornness, he remembered clearly to this day.
13:26Then a rival PAC captured photos, spreading rumors about his chaotic private life.
13:31Public gossip ran rampant.
13:33To silence the talk, he bonded with her as mates.
13:36After marriage, she never spoke excessively.
13:38Never deliberately fawned.
13:40She simply quietly managed everything in the black den, never adding any burden to him.
13:44His stomach was weak.
13:45Though wolves had strong recovery, years of battle left hidden injuries.
13:48When winter came, she always had someone adjust the dense temperature in the study and bedroom
13:52to a comfortable 75 degrees in advance.
13:55When he worked late into the night, a cup of warm deer milk would appear on his desk,
13:59accompanied by moon laurel cookies and dark chocolate that he loved.
14:02Before business trips, she packed his luggage overnight,
14:05carefully placing a box of evening primrose wound medicine in the side pocket.
14:08With a sticky note in rounded handwriting, remember to eat on time.
14:12Don't always use wolf pressure to suppress fatigue.
14:14She never spoke of love, but the concern in her eyes, he saw it all.
14:18That night at the winter PAC banquet, he hadn't been drunk at all.
14:21He'd simply used the honey wine's courage to do what he'd always wanted.
14:24He wanted to draw near her, wanted to break the invisible wall between them.
14:28Now, she is gone, taking his pups.
14:31Taking the 200 million gold pounds, leaving without a backward glance.
14:35That 200 million had been in his private treasury long ago,
14:38prepared to transfer to her name once she conceived, to set her mind at ease.
14:41But this gesture came too late, and was exploited by Victoria,
14:45becoming the reason for her departure, becoming a thorn piercing his heart.
14:50Alexander pressed his hand to his chest.
14:53It felt tight, aching badly, as if a piece had been carved away, leaving emptiness.
14:57He finally understood.
14:59These three years, his feelings for her had long surpassed a bond in name alone.
15:03The moon goddess had truly chosen him, and he'd developed genuine feelings for her.
15:07Only he'd awakened too late.
15:09Too late for her to have already taken his bloodline and completely walked out of his world.
15:13He whispered the name, the chill in his eyes almost enough to ignite a wolf.
15:17Victoria.
15:18Dawn had barely broken when the atmospheric black manner became suffocating.
15:22The old madam sat in the main hall's principal seat, her face grim.
15:26Victoria stood nearby, fingers anxiously twisting her skirt,
15:29panic filling her eyes though she struggled to maintain a composed appearance.
15:32Alexander sat on the opposite sofa.
15:35He wore a sharply tailored black suit,
15:37yet simply sitting there with cold brows was enough to drop the room's temperature.
15:41Grandmother.
15:43She schemed against my mate.
15:46My pups.
15:47This debt must be settled.
15:50The old madam's lips moved, but ultimately she said nothing.
15:54She knew her grandson too well,
15:55from the first time Alexander hunted down an intruder alone at 12.
15:59She knew this child was different.
16:00He never angered easily, but once his bottom line was crossed,
16:04he resolved matters with absolute finality.
16:06The old madam lowered her gaze.
16:08She'd once favored Victoria, cold-shouldered Elizabeth,
16:11believing this was how a pack's dignity should be maintained.
16:13Now she saw, she'd been wrong.
16:17Victoria's makeup was ruined by tears.
16:19Alexander, I know I was wrong.
16:21I was just momentarily confused.
16:24I love you too much.
16:25Watching Elizabeth occupy the Luna position, I couldn't accept it.
16:30Please forgive me, I'll never dare again.
16:32Alexander sat in his chair, looking at her coldly, not a ripple in his eyes.
16:36Love me?
16:37Your love is in imitating my tone, to send messages,
16:40using the gold pounds I dribbled for Elizabeth to deceive her into leaving.
16:43Victoria, your love is too cheap, too vicious.
16:47You've relied on grandmother's favor to throw your weight around in the mannish,
16:50bullying ordinary wolf servants, making things difficult for Elizabeth.
16:53You think I knew nothing?
16:54I simply couldn't be bothered.
16:56I gave you dignity for growing up in the black pack,
16:58but you dared touch my person.
17:00My pups!
17:02Victoria's face went deathly pale.
17:04Her crying stopped abruptly,
17:06staring at Alexander in disbelief.
17:08She de-thought Alexander's feelings for Elizabeth
17:11were nothing but reluctant,
17:12compliance with gossip,
17:14a performance.
17:14But now, from his words,
17:16he heard something different.
17:17He truly cared for Elizabeth.
17:19This realization nearly broke her.
17:20No!
17:22Impossible!
17:23Alexander, how could you like her?
17:25Such an ordinary she-wolf!
17:27Where does she deserve you?
17:29Whether she deserves me is not for you to judge.
17:32Alexander interrupted.
17:33You designed to harm my mate,
17:35deceived her into leaving.
17:36I will revoke all your positions in the black pack,
17:39freeze all Moonstone assets under your name related to the black family,
17:43and send you back to the remote farm pack.
17:46Never return to New York Terry in this lifetime.
17:50Such punishment,
17:52for Victoria who'd grown up in luxury
17:53and dreamed of marrying into the Alpha Core,
17:55was worse than death.
17:56She panicked completely,
17:58crawling and rolling to Alexander's feet,
18:00clutching his pant leg and begging bitterly.
18:02Alexander lifted his foot,
18:03fiercely shaking off her hand.
18:05The first was so great she fell to the ground,
18:07her forehead hitting the table corner,
18:09blood seeping out.
18:10Throw her out.
18:11He didn't look at her again,
18:13his tone without a hint of wavering.
18:14Guards immediately stepped forward,
18:16lifting the limp Victoria
18:17and dragging her from the side hall.
18:18Her cries grew distant,
18:20finally vanishing down the corridor.
18:22The old madam watched Alexander's decisive actions,
18:25regret filling her heart.
18:26Her voice choked.
18:27Alexander, grandmother, was wrong.
18:30Grandmother shouldn't have favored Victoria,
18:33shouldn't have cold-shouldered Elizabeth.
18:35Alexander looked at her,
18:36the chill in his eyes slightly receding,
18:38but still without warmth.
18:40Grandmother, what's done is done.
18:42Saying this is useless.
18:43Elizabeth has left with my pups.
18:45What I need to do is bring her back.
18:48He stood,
18:49powerful alpha pressure radiating from him.
18:52Issue the order.
18:54Deploy all Black Pack resources.
18:56Find Elizabeth's whereabouts.
18:58No matter where she is,
18:59bring her back.
19:01Yes, Alpha.
19:05Six months after leaving New York,
19:07I lived comfortably and contentedly in Miami.
19:09No frozen pack rolls.
19:11No sideways glances from others.
19:13Only stability and warmth.
19:14Mom and Dad had settled well.
19:16In Miami too,
19:17Dad fished by the lake in his free time.
19:19Wolf's sense of smell always let him find the fish schools.
19:23Mom tended the flowers and plants at home.
19:25Days were plain and cozy.
19:27I thought life would continue peacefully like this,
19:29until I gave birth to eight wolf pups and watched them grow.
19:32I never expected an accident would uncover a secret mom had buried for years.
19:36That day,
19:37I took Mom and Dad to a high-end restaurant by Miami's beach.
19:40Miami was at the edge of Carter Pack territory,
19:42where many high-ranking wolves frequently appeared.
19:45Mom inadvertently revealed the antique pocket watch on her wrist.
19:48An old silver watch engraved with a moon wolf totem.
19:50The restaurant owner suddenly exclaimed,
19:52Madam,
19:53this pocket watch,
19:54isn't it the heirloom treasure of the Jacksonville Carter Pack?
19:57The owner was an elderly beta wolf who'd once served the Carter Pack.
20:00Mom's face changed dramatically.
20:02She hurriedly hid the watch in her sleeve.
20:04Panic-stricken,
20:05that pocket watch had been Mom's dowry,
20:07brought from her maiden family.
20:09All these years,
20:10she'd worn it close to her skin,
20:12never removing it,
20:13never telling me or father about its origin.
20:15Under my questioning,
20:17Mom finally spoke through reddened eyes,
20:18revealing the secret she'd buried for years.
20:22Mom was originally the only daughter of the Jacksonville Carter Pack,
20:26one of Florida's largest shipping packs,
20:28controlling Gulf of Mexico maritime trade routes,
20:30with abundant moonstone reserves and formidable strength.
20:33Years ago,
20:34while traveling in Boston,
20:35Mom met father.
20:36Love at first sight,
20:38but the Carter Pack despised father's ordinary wandering pack origins.
20:41The status gap was too great.
20:43They firmly opposed the union.
20:45Mom chose father over the pack,
20:46eloping with him.
20:48She changed her name and disappeared,
20:49never returning to Jacksonville,
20:51never mentioning her origins to anyone.
20:53All these years,
20:54Mom hadn't missed home.
20:56She simply feared the pack still held anger,
20:58feared returning to face those class prejudices again.
21:01The restaurant owner was a distant relative of the Carter Pack.
21:03He'd seen this heirloom silver watch years ago
21:05and recognized it instantly.
21:07He said grandfather William Carter
21:08had never given up searching for his daughter,
21:10sending wolves to inquire every year.
21:12Now grandfather was nearly 70,
21:14his wolf nature declining.
21:16His greatest wish was to find his long lost daughter
21:18and make up for these years of regret.
21:20Mom listened,
21:21weeping uncontrollably.
21:22Father held her hand,
21:23full of guilt.
21:24It's all my fault,
21:25making you suffer so many years.
21:29Unable to return to your pack,
21:31have to insign your son Gornage.
21:33Mom,
21:33Dad,
21:35let's go see grandfather.
21:36Looking at Mom's state,
21:38my heart ached.
21:39Whether Grandpather is angry or not,
21:41we're family after all.
21:43You've suffered too many years.
21:45It's time to reunite.
21:47Mom and Dad nodded.
21:50Under the restaurant owner's guidance,
21:52we arrived at the Carter Pack estate.
21:54It was a massive hunting ground spanning several hectares,
21:57with an ancient wolf clan stone fortress rising at its center.
22:00Grandfather William Carter was nearly 70,
22:03his hair white,
22:04yet he maintained an alpha's vigorous spirit,
22:06sharp wolf pupils,
22:07straight spine.
22:08The moment he saw Mom,
22:09this tough old wolf instantly reddened at the eyes,
22:12trembling as he called out,
22:13My precious little wolf.
22:15Mom threw herself into Grandfather's arms,
22:18crying like a pup who'd just learned to transform.
22:20All these years of grievance and longing released in this moment,
22:23Grandfather held Mom,
22:25muttering over and over,
22:26My good daughter you've suffered.
22:27Grandfather looked at Mom,
22:29then at Father.
22:30Though dissatisfaction lingered in his eyes,
22:32a wandering beta had stolen his only daughter,
22:34seeing Mom's happy expression,
22:36and detecting the scent of eight pups in my womb.
22:38His heart ultimately softened.
22:39He'd hated Father all these years,
22:41hated him for taking his only daughter.
22:43But now seeing Father's devoted care for Mom,
22:46seeing Mom's stable,
22:47happy life,
22:48that hatred gradually dissipated.
22:49Especially when he learned I carried eight wolf pups.
22:52He was shocked and overjoyed,
22:53tossing all dissatisfaction to the wind.
22:55He took my hand,
22:56grinning from ear to ear.
22:57My precious Granddaughter,
22:59you've suffered,
23:00so young and carrying eight pups.
23:02Don't worry,
23:04Grandfather has plenty of territory.
23:06I'll make sure you and the children eat well,
23:08live well,
23:09without a bit of grievance.
23:12Immediately had people buy up several hunting lodges beside the castle and gift them to me.
23:17He assigned the Carter Pack's dedicated lunar healers to take my pulse and ensure the pregnancy daily,
23:21sending endless moonstones,
23:23nourishing herbs,
23:24and high-grade wolf milk.
23:25He not only accepted Father,
23:27but had him manage part of the Carter Pack's shipping business.
23:30Father had business acumen to begin with.
23:32Under Grandfather's guidance,
23:33he thrived,
23:34becoming a capable member of the Carter Pack.
23:36And I,
23:37as the Carter Pack's only granddaughter,
23:39Grandfather's beloved Pearl,
23:40was naturally designated heir to Carter Shipping Group.
23:42Holding half of the Florida Carter Pack's moonstone veins,
23:45I transformed into a truly wealthy she-wolf in Miami.
23:48Before,
23:49I'd worried about providing for eight children.
23:51Now I had endless moonstones,
23:53my maternal pack's protection,
23:54my parents' companionship.
23:56Never again watching any wolf's expression,
23:58never again worrying about livelihood.
23:59I thought I would spend my whole life in Miami like this,
24:02with eight wolf pups,
24:04with mom,
24:04dad,
24:05and grandfather,
24:06living stable and happy days.
24:07I never imagined Alexander would still find me.
24:13The day Alexander found me,
24:15Miami was drizzling with rain.
24:17I was lying on the sofa,
24:18caressing my swollen belly,
24:20my mood comfortable and secure,
24:21completely unaware of the approaching storm,
24:23perhaps because after leaving New York,
24:25my sensitivity to his alpha presence had weakened.
24:27Suddenly,
24:28commotion sounded outside the courtyard.
24:30Then a familiar figure appeared in my line of sight.
24:32The man wore a black custom suit,
24:34posture straight and tall,
24:36brows still cold and hard.
24:37But his eyes held fatigue,
24:38urgency,
24:39and emotions I couldn't read.
24:40He stood in the rain,
24:42raindrops wetting his hairline,
24:43clinging to his smooth forehead.
24:45His gaze locked onto me tightly,
24:46as if wanting to meld me into his very bones.
24:49It was Alexander.
24:50Not a ripple stirred in my heart,
24:52not even surprise.
24:53I looked at him blandly,
24:54like looking at a stranger.
24:56Alexander walked towards me,
24:57his suit soaked by rain,
24:59clinging to his body.
25:00Outlining his tall alpha form.
25:01He stopped before me,
25:03his gaze falling on my belly,
25:04instantly capturing the faint wolf cries of eight pups within,
25:07the resonance of bloodline.
25:08A trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
25:11Elizabeth.
25:11He called my name softly,
25:13voice hoarse,
25:14carrying barely perceptible trembling.
25:16This was the first time I'd heard him call me with such gentle,
25:18humble tone.
25:19I didn't respond.
25:20I simply signaled a maid to drape a wolf for a cloak over me,
25:23still looking at him distantly,
25:25my tone aloof.
25:26Black alpha gracing us with his presence.
25:28What an honor.
25:30Only I don't know,
25:30black alpha,
25:31what brings you here today?
