00:00:00On the day we were supposed to get engaged, my fiancé Ethan handed me a soda can tab he'd found
00:00:04in the trash.
00:00:04But he gave the family ring, the one for the matriarch, to his first love, Sophia.
00:00:08I didn't take it. Instead, he called me a gold digger.
00:00:10Sophia got the family ring because our families need to do business together, not because I want her.
00:00:15This was supposed to be your final test, and you failed me.
00:00:17I broke up with him on the spot and vanished from his world completely.
00:00:20Five years later, we ran into each other again at the Royal Hotel.
00:00:22We had Sophia on his arm.
00:00:23They had come to seek support from Don Russo, the youngest godfather of the New York Mafia Alliance.
00:00:26When he spotted me, covered in mud and digging through a trash can, his face twisted into a frown.
00:00:30You threw that can tag in my face back then. Now what? You regret it and want me back?
00:00:34I ignored him. The seashell bracelet my five-year-old son made for me.
00:00:37His father accidentally threw it in the trash to find it right away.
00:00:40Ethan walks into the lobby like he owns the building. Sophia's clinging to his arm.
00:00:42The guests spot him right away and gather around with smiles.
00:00:45Never thought you'd come to Don Russo's dinner party.
00:00:47IPO in five years, you're the youngest player in the room.
00:00:49You're here to gain Don's support too, right?
00:00:51Nearly everyone in attendance is here for one man, Antonio Russo, the youngest Don among New York's Mafia families.
00:00:56This must be Mrs. Smith. You two make quite a lovely couple.
00:00:59We aren't married yet. We'll hold our wedding once the company goes public.
00:01:04Everyone is welcome to join us then.
00:01:05We're both swamped. When you know you've found the right person, a piece of paper doesn't mean a thing.
00:01:09The crowd breaks out in congratulations. I'm caught off guard.
00:01:12They still aren't married?
00:01:13We split up five years ago.
00:01:15Right after we parted ways, he proposed to Sophia.
00:01:17He claimed he loved her, so why isn't she his wife?
00:01:19Madam, this is a five-star hotel. Not just anyone can wander in here.
00:01:22Mia. She looks me up and down, disgust, plain on her face.
00:01:25Digging through the trash can is strictly forbidden. Please leave immediately.
00:01:27I just got back from the beach with my son. Sand covers my hair and dress. I clearly don't look
00:01:30like a guest here.
00:01:32I'm so sorry. My belongings accidentally got tossed in the trash.
00:01:34I'll leave as soon as I find them, and I'll clean up any mess I've made.
00:01:37You're no guest of this hotel! Leave now, or I'll call security!
00:01:39Her voice is sharp and shrill. Everyone in the lobby turns to stare.
00:01:42God, she's disgusting. She's embarrassing the whole hotel.
00:01:45At that moment, Ethan glances over.
00:01:47Our eyes lock. He freezes.
00:01:48Mia?
00:01:50Mr. Smith, do you know this woman?
00:01:52My father once paid her tuition. Charity case. We're not close.
00:01:55Get out of here. I've seen people like you.
00:01:57Someone lends you a hand once, and you cling to them forever?
00:01:59I said I'll leave once I find my things. I'll pay for any damages.
00:02:03Pay for it? You?
00:02:04A custom piece from an Italian designer. It's worth $100,000.
00:02:08Stop talking big. Every item in this upscale venue is far beyond what someone like you could ever imagine.
00:02:13He turns and walks back over.
00:02:14What are you looking for? Name your price. I'll pay you cash.
00:02:17Don't try to get my attention like this. It's pathetic. I have zero interest in you.
00:02:21Mia, honey, we're getting married soon. I know you can't get over our breakup, but let's be honest.
00:02:26You and Ethan have always been worlds apart. Have some self-respect. Please.
00:02:30I hope you two are happy.
00:02:32I ignore them and squat down to keep searching for my son's bracelet. My son made it himself.
00:02:35It means the world to him.
00:02:36When are you finally going to leave? Are you still upset that I gave the ring to Sophia?
00:02:40Stop dreaming about that ring. Fine. I'll give you some money.
00:02:42Take it and go. Don't ever show your face around me again.
00:02:45I've only ever loved Sophia. This money will let you start over.
00:02:48Find yourself a regular guy. Don't waste your time on me.
00:02:51Account frozen? Are you a deadbeat now?
00:02:54It hit me all at once. He was still using that old bank account when I lived off his father's
00:02:57charity funds.
00:02:58The day I married my husband, I switched straight to his black card.
00:03:01I don't want your money. I'm doing perfectly fine.
00:03:04Come on, Mia. You're literally digging through trash. You're still too proud to take help?
00:03:07We broke up five years ago. We're strangers. I owe you nothing and I don't need your help.
00:03:11If Antonio had found out about the transaction, he'd get to the bottom of this.
00:03:13The scariest and most jealous man in the underworld.
00:03:15He'd stay wrapped up in envy well into next month and I wouldn't catch a break for weeks.
00:03:18I couldn't imagine what he would do if...
00:03:20You've got it all twisted. I'm only doing this out of pity.
00:03:23Don't get the wrong idea. I want absolutely nothing from you.
00:03:25You ended up like this. All because our breakup broke you.
00:03:28I guess I am partly to blame.
00:03:30Ethan, she's a Harvard Medical School graduate.
00:03:32She's more than capable of working and supporting herself.
00:03:34She brought this miserable life on herself.
00:03:35She took Mr. Smith's charity for granted.
00:03:37Lazy, greedy, and entitled. That's who she is.
00:03:40Sophia!
00:03:41I returned every dollar of that grant to Mr. Smith long ago.
00:03:44Let's go, Ethan. She's far too stubborn with her pride.
00:03:46Your kindness only offends her.
00:03:47There's no use wasting time here.
00:03:49Mind your own business, both of you.
00:03:50I turned my back coldly and went back to rummaging through the trash.
00:03:53I breathed out in relief and reached for it.
00:03:54You turned your nose up at that cheap soda can ring back then?
00:03:57Now you're digging through trash for it?
00:03:58Begging me to take you back?
00:04:01Save your breath.
00:04:02Even if you end up begging on the streets, I'll never take you back.
00:04:05I caught sight of an empty can and instantly realized his misunderstanding.
00:04:08He still thought we split up over a silly soda can ring.
00:04:11I remembered everything clearly.
00:04:12Sophia left for overseas out of the blue.
00:04:14No goodbye at all.
00:04:14That sudden disappearance shattered Ethan completely.
00:04:16His father begged me to look after him.
00:04:18I stayed right by his side through his lowest moments until three months before our engagement.
00:04:21Sophia came back.
00:04:22Ethan pulled away from me overnight.
00:04:23Ignored my calls.
00:04:24On our engagement day, he gave me that soda can ring.
00:04:26Wasn't he clearly hoping I'd leave on my own?
00:04:28It's pathetic, really.
00:04:28It wasn't until Sophia's text that my heart finally died.
00:04:31I stared down at his tight grip on my wrist.
00:04:32My expression calm and unwavering.
00:04:36Ethan, I'm happy with my life now.
00:04:37I have never once wanted to come back to you.
00:04:39You said it yourself.
00:04:40Don't come crying to me after we break up.
00:04:42I've remembered every word.
00:04:44To end this for good, I added plainly.
00:04:46Because I'm married.
00:04:47And my husband has a temper.
00:04:49If he sees you pettering me like this, you'll be in serious trouble.
00:04:52Ethan released my wrist like he'd touched fire.
00:04:54Shock exploded across his face.
00:04:56You got married?
00:04:57Behind my back?
00:04:59Where's your husband?
00:05:00What sort of man would leave you in such a state?
00:05:03You almost had me fooled.
00:05:05You think pretending to be married is a way to test me?
00:05:08Dream on.
00:05:09I wouldn't care even if you said you had a child.
00:05:11Funny thing was, he'd been the one to confess first.
00:05:13I'd double-checked over and over if he'd truly gotten over her.
00:05:16I only agreed to be with him after he swore he'd moved on for good.
00:05:19In the end, I became the one clinging on relentlessly.
00:05:21Believe what you want.
00:05:22Ethan, this place reeks.
00:05:24Let's go.
00:05:25She clearly doesn't want our help.
00:05:28Your pride will be the death of you.
00:05:30We're meeting the Don today, and we're short of help to fetch things and pour drinks.
00:05:33I'll pay you 50 grand to do the job.
00:05:35You're just too stubborn, Mia.
00:05:36You turned down handouts, so surely you'll accept honest work?
00:05:39I'd swap the two of you board out of your minds.
00:05:41I've got no time just for your little three charity acts.
00:05:42Stay away from me.
00:05:43Ethan, she's broke and stubborn.
00:05:45You really want her waiting on the Don?
00:05:46Better do.
00:05:48The banquet's about to start.
00:05:49Our VIP from the top floor presidential seat could appear any minute.
00:05:51Ma'am, every guest here is a big name in New York.
00:05:53Most of all, Antonio Russo, the Don of the New York Mafia, has brought his wife and child along.
00:05:56Nothing like this has ever happened at our hotel.
00:05:57You're causing a scene and ruining our reputation.
00:06:00I can't take responsibility for this.
00:06:01Security, get her out of here.
00:06:03I'm leaving on my own.
00:06:05Hold on!
00:06:06Suddenly, his eyes were glued to the seashell bracelet.
00:06:11Why can't you see?
00:06:13I haven't needed these shells for ages.
00:06:18I stared down at the seashell bracelet resting in my palm, my mind drifting back to the past.
00:06:23Ethan's family began supporting me financially the year he split up with Sophia.
00:06:27He'd spend every single day sitting alone by the shore, empty and lifeless.
00:06:31No tears, no smiles.
00:06:32Didn't say a word.
00:06:33Sometimes we'd just stay like that all day.
00:06:36One night, Wade dragged him out.
00:06:37I pulled him back to show and blacked out from exhaustion.
00:06:49When I came to, he was holding me, crying like a little kid.
00:06:54Ethan.
00:06:55I'm conscious.
00:06:55I reached for a shell beside me and pressed it into his hand.
00:06:58From now on, every time I give you a shell, you gotta smile for me.
00:07:02Deal?
00:07:05That box of seashells got tossed long ago.
00:07:07Do you really think this silly trick will win him over?
00:07:09He only played along to amuse you back then.
00:07:11Why still take it so seriously?
00:07:13Mia, Sophia and I are getting married soon.
00:07:15There's nothing left between us anymore.
00:07:17Just then, my phone in my pocket rang.
00:07:18I reached to answer it, but a server snatched the device right out of my hand.
00:07:22A high-end phone like this?
00:07:23There's no way you can afford it.
00:07:24Did you steal it?
00:07:25No, this is my personal phone.
00:07:27If it's really yours, unlock it and prove it.
00:07:29I tried the fingerprint unlock, but smudges of dirt on my fingertips.
00:07:32I then attempted facial recognition.
00:07:34I was about to type in the pathcode when the hotel manager hurried over.
00:07:37Take this to the front desk for safekeeping.
00:07:39Contact all guests at once to see if anyone has reported a stolen phone.
00:07:42Call the police immediately.
00:07:43Wait, let her go.
00:07:44I'll vouch for her.
00:07:45Ethan, don't bother.
00:07:46She's clearly unstable.
00:07:47If that phone is stolen, she'll be charged with theft.
00:07:49It's a felony.
00:07:50I didn't steal anything.
00:07:52And you're a lawyer, are you?
00:07:53You should know false accusation is a crime.
00:07:55My mate died six years ago, but today, he appeared in a recent photo my niece showed
00:07:59me.
00:08:00In the center of the frame, a man was cutting a cake.
00:08:02Calder Asheville.
00:08:03My dead mate.
00:08:05Aunt Alara, look!
00:08:06It's from that big party!
00:08:07My niece Lily practically shouted.
00:08:09It was a thick card with gold edges.
00:08:11Lily found it in her mother Marin's mail.
00:08:13The photo was formal.
00:08:14A long oak table was set with autumn flowers.
00:08:17People held up crystal glasses.
00:08:19Calder was laughing.
00:08:20He held a she-wolf, lips pressed against her temple.
00:08:22Celebrating Calder and Vivian's sixth mating anniversary, and the birth of their pup.
00:08:26He didn't die in the border war.
00:08:28He faked his death and found a new mate.
00:08:30Everyone at the table knew.
00:08:31Except me.
00:08:32I slammed into the table, spilling stew everywhere.
00:08:35My hand reached for my neck.
00:08:37I wore his token every day for six years.
00:08:39It was a hand-carved moonwood disc.
00:08:41He cut his palm with a blade to stain the grain.
00:08:43The blood meant part of him was always with me.
00:08:46The front door opened.
00:08:47My sister, Marin, returned from the market.
00:08:50She saw my face and the photo in my hand.
00:08:52The smile vanished from her face.
00:08:54When I learned Calder died, Marin held my hand, sobbing even harder than I was.
00:08:58Now she stood in the doorway, silent.
00:09:01How long have you known?
00:09:04She set the bread down, avoiding my eyes.
00:09:07Four years.
00:09:08For six years, I visited Calder's memorial monthly.
00:09:11Marin joined me and cried with me for four of those.
00:09:13She knew nothing was buried there.
00:09:16His mother contacted me.
00:09:17You were in bad shape, not even eating.
00:09:19Pack healers gave you herbs to dull the pain from the mate bond.
00:09:22You could have told me the truth.
00:09:24But you would have done something reckless.
00:09:27What did he pay you to help him hide it?
00:09:29Calden gave me two territories.
00:09:31They call it-
00:09:31Four years, Marin!
00:09:33You cried at his headstone!
00:09:34Because that's what you needed from me.
00:09:36She was stony-faced.
00:09:37It was the most hurtful thing she could say.
00:09:40She was brutally honest.
00:09:42That honesty forced me to face the truth.
00:09:44My love had been hollow for the last six years.
00:09:47What will you do?
00:09:49I'm going to find him.
00:09:51Alara, he has a mate now!
00:09:52I won't take anything from him.
00:09:54I just want him to see me.
00:09:58I walked out.
00:10:00I traveled to that distant pack.
00:10:02Waiting in the cafe across from the restaurant, my coffee sat untouched.
00:10:05At 5.30, Calder stepped out of the dark car.
00:10:07Six years.
00:10:08He was broader and steadier, every inch in alpha.
00:10:11Then, he opened the passenger door.
00:10:16A she-wolf stepped out.
00:10:17It was Vivian.
00:10:19Calder didn't let go of Vivian's hand.
00:10:21Vivian reached into the back seat, lifting a pup onto her hip.
00:10:24She kissed his head.
00:10:25Calder's hand rested on the pup's back.
00:10:27A family.
00:10:28My wolf clawed at the inside of my chest, howling for blood.
00:10:31Watching them enter, I left the cafe and crossed the road.
00:10:33They sat at a table by the fireplace.
00:10:35The pup sat on Vivian's lap.
00:10:37Her hand gently stroked his hair.
00:10:39Calder looked up, pouring wine.
00:10:41The bottle tilted when he saw me.
00:10:43Calder stood up.
00:10:44Vivian followed his gaze toward me.
00:10:46She looked surprised, then hugged the pup tightly.
00:10:48Then she lifted her chin and flashed a smug smile.
00:10:50I stopped three feet from the table.
00:10:52My voice shook.
00:10:53Why did you fake your death, Calder?
00:10:55Alora, there were reasons.
00:10:57The restaurant door opened.
00:10:59Calder's parents rushed in.
00:11:00His mother stepped in front of Vivian.
00:11:02Alora, let's talk.
00:11:04I followed them into a private room.
00:11:07A long table.
00:11:09His parents sat at one end.
00:11:10I sat alone at the other end.
00:11:12His father pushed an envelope to the center.
00:11:14A transfer document, gold reserves, and two territories.
00:11:18All yours.
00:11:18Just promise to keep the secret.
00:11:22He pulled out a second envelope.
00:11:24It was a council non-disclosure agreement.
00:11:26The key condition was this.
00:11:28Calder had to remain dead in the eyes of the world.
00:11:30I had to keep pretending he was gone.
00:11:32He set a pen beside it, waiting for my signature.
00:11:34The door opened.
00:11:36Maren walked in.
00:11:37She had driven after me.
00:11:38Calder's parents had contacted her.
00:11:40You must agree.
00:11:42Arguing just makes you look pathetic.
00:11:44Since he died, the pack has whispered that you're cursed.
00:11:46Do you really want them to know you spent six years mourning him?
00:11:49A man who's now cutting cake with another she-wolf.
00:11:54Allura, I'm sorry.
00:11:55But you know a pup needs a father.
00:11:57Take off the necklace.
00:11:58That bond is dead.
00:12:00It has dragged you into the abyss for years.
00:12:02A dead bond.
00:12:03The very moonwood necklace he carved with his own blood.
00:12:06I wore it daily for six years.
00:12:07He actually dared to call it a dead bond.
00:12:10I walked to the fireplace at the room's end.
00:12:12Allura, don't, please!
00:12:15My mate died six years ago.
00:12:16But today, he appeared in a recent photo my niece showed me.
00:12:19In the center of the frame, a man was cutting a cake.
00:12:22Calder Asheville.
00:12:23My dead mate.
00:12:24Aunt Allura, look!
00:12:25It's from that big party!
00:12:27My niece Lily practically shouted.
00:12:29It was a thick card with gold edges.
00:12:31Lily found it in her mother Maren's mail.
00:12:33The photo was formal.
00:12:34A long oak table was set with autumn flowers.
00:12:36People held up crystal glasses.
00:12:38Calder was laughing.

00:12:42Celebrating Calder and Vivian's sixth mating anniversary,
00:12:44and the birth of their pup.

00:13:05The front door opened.
00:13:07My sister, Maren, returned from the market.
00:13:10She saw my face and the photo in my hand.
00:13:12The smile vanished from her face.
00:13:14When I learned Calder died, Maren held my hand,
00:13:16sobbing even harder than I was.
00:13:18Now she stood in the doorway, silent.
00:13:20How long have you known?
00:13:24She set the bread down, avoiding my eyes.

00:13:52You cried at his headstone!
00:13:54Because that's what you needed from me.
00:13:56She was stony-faced.
00:13:58It was the most hurtful thing she could say.
00:14:00She was brutally honest.
00:14:02That honesty forced me to face the truth.
00:14:04My love had been hollow for the last six years.
00:14:07What will you do?
00:14:09I'm going to find him.
00:14:11Alara, he has a mate now!
00:14:12I won't take anything from him.
00:14:14I just want him to see me.
00:14:18I walked out.
00:14:19I traveled to that distant pack.
00:14:21Waiting in the cafe across from the restaurant, my coffee sat untouched.
00:14:25At 5.30, Calder stepped out of the dark car.
00:14:27Six years.
00:14:28He was broader and steadier, every inch in alpha.
00:14:31Then, he opened the passenger door.
00:14:35A she-wolf stepped out.
00:14:37It was Vivian.
00:14:38Calder didn't let go of Vivian's hand.
00:14:40Vivian reached into the back seat, lifting a pup onto her hip.
00:14:43She kissed his head.
00:14:45Calder's hand rested on the pup's back.
00:14:47A family.
00:14:48My wolf clawed at the inside of my chest, howling for blood.
00:14:51Watching them enter, I left the cafe and crossed the road.
00:14:53They sat at a table by the fireplace.
00:14:55The pup sat on Vivian's lap.
00:14:57Her hand gently stroked his hair.
00:14:59Calder looked up, pouring wine.
00:15:00The bottle tilted when he saw me.
00:15:03Calder stood up.
00:15:04Vivian followed his gaze toward me.
00:15:05She looked surprised, then hugged the pup tightly.
00:15:08Then she lifted her chin and flashed a smug smile.
00:15:10I stopped three feet from the table.
00:15:12My voice shook.
00:15:13Why did you fake your death, Calder?
00:15:15Allura, there were reasons.
00:15:17The restaurant door opened.
00:15:19Calder's parents rushed in.
00:15:20His mother stepped in front of Vivian.
00:15:22Allura, let's talk.
00:15:24I followed them into a private room.
00:15:27A long table.
00:15:29His parents sat at one end.
00:15:30I sat alone at the other end.
00:15:32His father pushed an envelope to the center.
00:15:34A transfer document, gold reserves, and two territories, all yours.
00:15:38Just promise to keep the secret.
00:15:42He pulled out a second envelope.
00:15:44It was a council non-disclosure agreement.
00:15:46The key condition was this.
00:15:48Calder had to remain dead in the eyes of the world.
00:15:50I had to keep pretending he was gone.
00:15:52He set a pen beside it, waiting for my signature.
00:15:54The door opened.
00:15:56Maren walked in.
00:15:56She had driven after me.
00:15:58Calder's parents had contacted her.
00:16:00You must agree.
00:16:02Arguing just makes you look pathetic.
00:16:03Since he died, the pack has whispered that you're cursed.
00:16:06Do you really want them to know you spent six years mourning him?
00:16:09A man who's now cutting cake with another she-wolf.
00:16:13Allura, I'm sorry.
00:16:15But you know a pup needs a father.
00:16:17Take off the necklace.
00:16:18That bond is dead.
00:16:19It has dragged you into the abyss for years.
00:16:22A dead bond.
00:16:23The very moonwood necklace he carved with his own blood.
00:16:25I wore it daily for six years.
00:16:27He actually dared to call it a dead bond.
00:16:29I walked to the fireplace at the room's end.
00:16:31Alotta, don't, please!
00:16:36Prince Liam's childhood sweetheart killed herself.
00:16:38On the very day of our mating.
00:16:46Prince Liam's childhood mother killed her.
00:16:46Your highness!
00:16:47Miss Evelyn jumped off the tower!
00:16:49Give her mother some gold.
00:16:50Bury her.
00:16:52Charlotte, we're finishing this.
00:16:58I thought that tear was a final goodbye to Evelyn.
00:17:02Hurt?
00:17:03Bear it.
00:17:04The first thing he did as Alpha King was throw my family into the dungeons.
00:17:08By order of Alpha King Liam, House Sinclair and the Royal Guard are traitors.
00:17:13Execute them all.
00:17:19No!
00:17:21No!
00:17:22No!
00:17:25Why?
00:17:25My family bled for this pack!
00:17:28Why would you do this to them?
00:17:30Why?
00:17:31Because Evelyn was pregnant with my pup when she died!
00:17:34If it weren't for your family's army, I never would have married you.
00:17:38You don't deserve to be my mate.
00:17:40Luna Charlotte Sinclair.
00:17:42Death by Wolfsbane.
00:17:47Liam Shadowmoon, I curse you.
00:17:49I hope you burn in hell.
00:18:06I'm back.
00:18:08It's the day of my mating ceremony.
00:18:12Ready, Charlotte?
00:18:13I'm here to get you.
00:18:23I'm not wasting this second chance.
00:18:25I'll protect my family this time.
00:18:27And you, Liam, I'm going to make you watch your precious throne slip right through your fingers.
00:18:37You know what to do.
00:18:38Go.
00:18:45Your Highness!
00:18:46Help!
00:18:47Evelyn is going to jump off the bell tower!
00:18:49Evelyn, you ruined my ceremony once.
00:18:51This time, I've got a special gift just for you.
00:18:54You two grew up together!
00:18:57Please, you have to save her!
00:19:00Evelyn, the cook's daughter?
00:19:02That filthy Omega?
00:19:03A suicide stunt on mating day?
00:19:05Wow, that's a new look.
00:19:09Why is she in such a rush?
00:19:11I promised her I'd make her my second mate after the ceremony!
00:19:16Sire, you cannot leave.
00:19:18The Alpha King and Lunar Queen are on their way.
00:19:20The ceremony cannot be interrupted.
00:19:22If I leave now, every noble backing House Sinclair will go running to my father.
00:19:25If I piss him off, he'll strip my title as heir.
00:19:28Charlotte, Evelyn and I grew up together.
00:19:31Let me go check on her.
00:19:32And then we'll finish this.
00:19:35This ceremony is just a show for the nobles.
00:19:37My parents chose you anyway.
00:19:39You're right, Your Highness.
00:19:40We're talking about a life.
00:19:43If something happens to her today, it'd be a scandal for the pack.
00:19:47Why don't I go with you?
00:19:49If I'm going to be your mate, it's my duty to comfort your maid.
00:19:52Yes.
00:19:53Good.
00:19:54Charlotte, only a woman with your grace could be my mate.
00:19:59Pausing a mating ceremony for a mere Omega?
00:20:02Best drama we've had all year.
00:20:03I can't believe the Sinclair girl is just taking this.
00:20:06Looks like House Sinclair is dead set on backing Liam for Alpha King.
00:20:24Evelyn, are you okay?
00:20:26Liam, I'm so sorry.
00:20:28I didn't mean to ruin your mating ceremony.
00:20:30I just wanted to be with you.
00:20:32Even if it was just for one last moment.
00:20:48Liam, I know I'm just a worthless Omega.
00:20:52I don't deserve to be your mate.
00:20:55I don't care about the Lunar Crown, Liam.
00:20:59I just want to be your mate.
00:21:01Your wife.
00:21:05You little fool.
00:21:06I promised you a title right after the ceremony.
00:21:10If I hadn't catch you,
00:21:12I'd live with guilt forever.
00:21:14Guilt?
00:21:15Your conscience died the day you wiped out my family.
00:21:24Liam, the pack healer told me a few days ago.
00:21:27I'm two months pregnant.
00:21:29With your pup.
00:21:32I was so scared.
00:21:33I couldn't let him be born a bastard and cast out.
00:21:38So, I thought dying was my only way out.
00:21:44You mean, I'm going to have an heir?
00:21:46A pup?
00:21:47Yes, sire.
00:21:48I'd never lie to you.
00:21:50Yes!
00:21:53The prince cheated with the cook's daughter before the mating ceremony?
00:21:56He knocked up an Omega?
00:21:58And she's two months along.
00:21:59This is going to be a massive royal scandal.
00:22:01This Omega pulls a suicide stunt and drops a pregnancy bomb now?
00:22:04She did this on purpose.
00:22:06It's not just about Charlotte anymore.
00:22:08They're making Sinclairs the laughingstock of the East.
00:22:15Prince Liam.
00:22:17I thought she was just a common maid serving you.
00:22:19But now, you tell me she's carrying your pup?
00:22:22Well, since you know, I won't hide it.
00:22:24Evelyn and I grew up together.
00:22:26She's the only woman I'll ever truly love.
00:22:29So what?
00:22:30You two sneak around behind the pack and had a bastard pup?
00:22:33You still call it true love?
00:22:37You pull this stunt at our mating ceremony.
00:22:40Did you really think I'd just swallow this?
00:22:43That I'd smile and accept your mistress in front of everyone?
00:22:49Please, don't blame Liam.
00:22:52It's all my fault.
00:22:53He was so drunk that night.
00:22:55He thought I was you.
00:22:56It was an accident.
00:23:02Shut up!
00:23:03Sinclairs obeyed the moon god, so we never crossed the line before mating.
00:23:06We never did anything appropriate.
00:23:08I would never speak to your disgusting level.
00:23:11Don't drag my name into your dirty affair.
00:23:14Princess, it's all my fault.
00:23:16Please calm down.
00:23:17I'm sorry.
00:23:18I'm so sorry.
00:23:20Stop begging her.
00:23:23Enough!
00:23:24She's a fragile omega.
00:23:26How dare you use your status to make her grovel?
00:23:30To me, Evelyn is your equal.
00:23:32You just got lucky being born a Sinclair.
00:23:35Without your family,
00:23:36do you think a petty, toxic woman like you deserves to be my future Luna?
00:23:41Charlotte, if you hadn't hoarded the Luna crown,
00:23:43Evelyn wouldn't have been pushed to the edge.
00:23:45She's carrying my pup.
00:23:46How can you be so ruthless?
00:23:49Since we're mated today, you hear this.
00:23:52Evelyn will be my second mate.
00:23:54I won't let my true love and my heir suffer the pack's mockery!
00:24:00I was such a fool.
00:24:02He fears my father's army, yet depends on it to survive.
00:24:05Without my family, he'd have lost the throne years ago.
00:24:07Your Highness, Alpha King himself made me your Luna.
00:24:10This scandal doesn't just shame House Sinclair.
00:24:12It's a slap in the Alpha King's face.
00:24:14Are you defying his orders, Liam?
00:24:17Plotting a rebellion?
00:24:20I'm not.
00:24:21I just want to do right by the woman I love.
00:24:24If you really love her, why didn't you just claim her?
00:24:30Beg Alpha King for her?
00:24:34Why insist on choosing me?
00:24:36You just want my family's army to secure your throne while keeping your little childhood pet in your bed.
00:24:41If you just told me about your true love, do you really think I'd be shameless enough to force this
00:24:45bond?
00:24:46To ban you from having other women?
00:24:48And you?
00:24:49You knew you were pregnant days ago, but pull a suicide strunt today?
00:24:53Using your unborn pup as leverage to make the pack a joke?
00:24:56Just to force his hand?
00:24:58Dare to tell me this wasn't planned?
00:25:28I didn't mean to.
00:25:29And you just buy it?
00:25:31Then tell me, Evelyn.
00:25:32Which maid?
00:25:33Where?
00:25:34When?
00:25:37I...
00:25:37I don't remember.
00:25:40Your own maids are probably sick of your viciousness.
00:25:42They told her the truth.
00:25:43Today is my maid's first time at the Shadowmoon Palace.
00:25:46She wouldn't even know where your door is, let alone spread rumors.
00:25:48Your Highness, you think how Sinclair's maids have zero discipline like yours?
00:25:52If you're so sure of these whispers, Evelyn, bring that maid out!
00:25:55Confront her right now!
00:25:57We can use a truth potion.
00:25:59I will clear the Sinclair name.
00:26:01I was too scared.
00:26:02I didn't see who it was.
00:26:04Maybe...
00:26:05Maybe I was hearing things.
00:26:06Hearing things?
00:26:07What a cheap Omega trick.
00:26:09Only a dumb, love-strucken Alpha would fall for that.
00:26:11Pulling this stunt today just because she's knocked up?
00:26:13Gross!
00:26:14Lady Charlotte's taking too much crap.
00:26:16If she actually lets this mistress stay, they'll eat her alive in that palace.
00:26:21On my wedding day, my fiancé sacrificed me to a demon lord.
00:26:25All to keep his crown.
00:26:27Alaric was arrogant, possessive, and suffocating.
00:26:30I tried to escape countless times.
00:26:32He always dragged me back.
00:26:36You belong to me.
00:26:38Only me.
00:26:39His tail coiled around me.
00:26:41Then one day, I finally slipped free.
00:26:44I ran back to the kingdom.
00:26:46Nathan greeted me with a smile.
00:26:47Then drew a dagger straight into my heart.
00:26:52Did you really think I'd marry you?
00:26:54Use her corpse as bait.
00:26:55We'll lure the demon out.
00:26:56I was bound to a cliff, barely breathing.
00:26:58The moment he saw me, every trace of Alaric's cold arrogance shattered.
00:27:03Emilia!
00:27:04His massive black wings snapped open.
00:27:07Dope.
00:27:08Kill him.
00:27:11A storm of burning magic tore through the air.
00:27:13His wings were pierced.
00:27:15His tail severed.
00:27:16Blood soaked him head to toe.
00:27:18He kept flying toward me.
00:27:20Got you.
00:27:20He whispered.
00:27:22And gently took my hand.
00:27:23But he had nothing left.
00:27:25In the same instant, a volley of spells ripped through his chest.
00:27:28With his last breath, he spread his wings around me.
00:27:32Then he fell.
00:27:33When I opened my eyes again, I was back.
00:27:36Back to that night, I was forced to become the demon lord's bride.
00:27:40His arms wrapped around me.
00:27:42His skin burning hot.
00:27:43His touch achingly gentle.
00:27:46Whatever you're about to say, I don't want to hear it.
00:27:49I will never let you go.
00:27:52You were destined to be my bride.
00:27:56Maybe this truly was fate.
00:27:58A second chance.
00:27:59This time, I would take back everything that was stolen from me.
00:28:03And the man I truly loved.
00:28:06If I remember right, the last face I saw before I died was his.
00:28:11Alaric.
00:28:12The demon lord.
00:28:13My husband.
00:28:14Amelia.
00:28:16Don't be afraid.
00:28:17I can save you.
00:28:19If I can't drink my blood, you'll heal.
00:28:22Stop running.
00:28:23If you hate my tail, I'll never touch you with it again.
00:28:26Those spells should never have hurt him.
00:28:29He's a demon lord.
00:28:30He took every hit to shield me.
00:28:33He despised humans.
00:28:34He gave his life for one.
00:28:36Right up until he plummeted off that cliff, he was still trying to save me.
00:28:40I jolted awake, shot upright, gasping.
00:28:44My back was drenched in cold sweat.
00:28:46Outside, bright sun, birdsong, the world absurdly peaceful.
00:28:51I sat frozen on the bed, unable to separate dream from reality.
00:28:55Then, a knock at the door.
00:28:57I knew this room.
00:28:58I'd lived in it for a year.
00:29:00Alaric's palace.
00:29:01I stumbled to the mirror.
00:29:02Day seven.
00:29:03Seven days since I married Alaric.
00:29:06Our wedding portrait sat beside the calendar.
00:29:08My hands shook as I picked it up.
00:29:10Every ugly memory came flooding back.
00:29:13I hate you.
00:29:14You tore me away from the man I loved.
00:29:17One day I'll kill you.
00:29:19You won't!
00:29:21Can't you see it?
00:29:22Stop going back to Nathan.
00:29:25He's the one who gave you to me.
00:29:29His cold hand had brushed the tears from my face.
00:29:32Careful.
00:29:33Tender.
00:29:33I am your destined one.
00:29:35I'd just closed my eyes and pretended to be blind.
00:29:38Death.
00:29:39And I practically was.
00:29:41Blind enough to nearly lose the man who truly loved me.
00:29:44The knocking grew impatient.
00:29:46The door swung open.
00:29:47I expected Alaric.
00:29:49I spun around and found Nanny Margaret instead.
00:29:52She looked me up and down.
00:29:54Lips pursed.
00:29:55What are you sulking about now?
00:29:57The Lord already agreed to your demand.
00:29:59What more do you want?
00:30:00I blinked.
00:30:02What?
00:30:02Demand?
00:30:05You begged and cried to attend your ex-fiancee's coronation.
00:30:08The Lord said no, so you threw a fit.
00:30:10Now you're playing dumb?
00:30:12Disgusting.
00:30:13I lowered my eyes.
00:30:14So, this is the day I came back to.
00:30:17Last time, I'd spent this entire day screaming at Alaric for blocking my invitation to Nathan's
00:30:23coronation, not knowing it was Alaric who was trying to spare me from watching Nathan
00:30:28announce my own handmaid, Rosalie, as his new partner.
00:30:31I'd called Alaric every name I could think of, told him to go die, and when I'd tried
00:30:37to poison myself that night, he hadn't hesitated.
00:30:40He'd used his own heart's blood to make the cure.
00:30:43A man like the Lord, and he ends up with her.
00:30:46What rotten luck.
00:30:48I picked up the flowers and the gown from the sofa, and dropped them straight into the
00:30:52trash.
00:30:53Margaret went rigid.
00:30:54What are you doing now?
00:30:55I looked up.
00:30:56Where's Alaric?
00:30:57Margaret turned away.
00:30:58I don't know.
00:30:59No one in this palace would ever tell me where he was, because every time I went looking for
00:31:04him, something went wrong.
00:31:06Fine.
00:31:06I'd find him myself.
00:31:08I moved through the halls from memory, room by room, until I pushed open the door to his
00:31:13study.
00:31:14The smell of blood hit me like a wall.
00:31:16Alaric sat on the floor, shirt off, surrounded by a pool of dark red.
00:31:20His black tail cast faint, flickering light, head bowed, face drained of color, dangerous,
00:31:27breathtaking.
00:31:28I'd known drawing his blood caused pain.
00:31:30I hadn't imagined it looked like this.
00:31:32He heard the door and didn't turn around.
00:31:34Get out.
00:31:35I didn't move.
00:31:36His aura exploded, savage, suffocating.
00:31:41Do you have a death wish?
00:31:43He saw it was me.
00:31:45The threat died in his throat.
00:31:46He turned away fast, scrambling to hide his tail.
00:31:49Well, hands clumsy with something that looked almost like embarrassment.
00:31:53Seeing him alive, it should have made me happy.
00:31:56Instead, my voice cracked.
00:31:57Alaric?
00:31:58Does it hurt?
00:32:00His hand stilled, then a cold laugh.
00:32:03Not your concern.
00:32:05What do you want this time?
00:32:06On my wedding day, my fiancé sacrificed me to a demon lord, all to keep his crown.
00:32:12Alaric was arrogant, possessive, and suffocating.
00:32:16I tried to escape countless times.
00:32:17He always dragged me back.
00:32:21You belong to me.
00:32:23Only me.
00:32:24His tail coiled around me.
00:32:26Then one day, I finally slipped free.
00:32:29I ran back to the kingdom.
00:32:31Nathan greeted me with a smile.
00:32:33And drew a dagger straight into my heart.
00:32:37Did you really think I'd marry you?
00:32:39Use her corpse as bait.
00:32:40We'll lure the demon out.
00:32:41I was bound to a cliff, barely breathing.
00:32:44The moment he saw me, every trace of Alaric's cold arrogance shattered.
00:32:48Emilia!
00:32:50His massive black wings snapped over him.
00:32:52Dope.
00:32:53Kill him.
00:32:56A storm of burning magic tore through the air.
00:32:59His wings were pierced.
00:33:00His tail severed.
00:33:01Blood soaked him head to toe.
00:33:03He kept flying toward me.
00:33:05Gotcha.
00:33:06He whispered.
00:33:07And gently took my hand.
00:33:08But he had nothing left.
00:33:10In the same instant, a volley of spells ripped through his chest.
00:33:14With his last breath, he spread his wings around me.
00:33:17Then he fell.
00:33:19When I opened my eyes again, I was back.
00:33:21Back to that night, I was forced to become the demon lord's bride.
00:33:25His arms wrapped around me.
00:33:27His skin burning hot.
00:33:29His touch achingly gentle.
00:33:31Whatever you're about to say, I don't want to hear it.
00:33:34I will never let you go.
00:33:38You were destined to be my gride.
00:33:42Maybe this truly was fate.
00:33:44A second chance.
00:33:45This time, I would take back everything that was stolen from me.
00:33:49And the man I truly loved.
00:33:51If I remember right, the last face I saw before I died was his.
00:33:56Alaric.
00:33:57The demon lord.
00:33:58My husband.
00:34:00Amelia.
00:34:01Don't be afraid.
00:34:02I can save you.
00:34:04If I can't drink my blood, you'll heal.
00:34:08Stop running.
00:34:09If you hate my tail, I'll never touch you with it again.
00:34:12Those spells should never have hurt him.
00:34:14He's a demon lord.
00:34:15He took every hit to shield me.
00:34:18He despised humans.
00:34:20He gave his life, for one.
00:34:22Right up until he plummeted off that cliff, he was still trying to save me.
00:34:26I jolted awake.
00:34:27Shot upright.
00:34:28Gasping.
00:34:29My back was drenched in cold sweat.
00:34:31Outside.
00:34:32Bright sun.
00:34:33Bird song.
00:34:34The world absurdly peaceful.
00:34:36I sat frozen on the bed.
00:34:38Unable to separate dream from reality.
00:34:40Then, a knock at the door.
00:34:42I knew this room.
00:34:43I'd lived in it for a year.
00:34:45Alaric's palace.
00:34:46I stumbled to the mirror.
00:34:47Day seven.
00:34:48Seven days since I married Alaric.
00:34:51Our wedding portrait sat beside the calendar.
00:34:53My hands shook as I picked it up.
00:34:55Every ugly memory came flooding back.
00:34:58I hate you.
00:34:59You tore me away from the man I loved.
00:35:02One day I'll kill you.
00:35:04You won't.
00:35:06Can't you see it?
00:35:08Stop going back to Nathan.
00:35:10He's the one who gave you to me.
00:35:14His cold hand had brushed the tears from my face.
00:35:17Careful.
00:35:18Tender.
00:35:19I am your destined one.
00:35:20I'd just closed my eyes and pretended to be blind.
00:35:24Death.
00:35:25And I practically was.
00:35:26Blind enough to nearly lose the man who truly loved me.
00:35:30The knocking grew impatient.
00:35:31The door swung open.
00:35:33I expected Alaric.
00:35:34I spun around and found Nanny Margaret instead.
00:35:37She looked me up and down.
00:35:39Lips pursed.
00:35:40What are you sulking about now?
00:35:42The Lord already agreed to your demand.
00:35:44What more do you want?
00:35:46I blinked.
00:35:47What?
00:35:48Demand?
00:35:50You begged and cried to attend your ex-fiancee's coronation.
00:35:53The Lord said no, so you threw a fit.
00:35:56Now you're playing dumb?
00:35:57Disgusting.
00:35:58I lowered my eyes.
00:36:00So, this is the day I came back to.
00:36:03Last time, I'd spent this entire day screaming at Alaric for blocking my invitation to Nathan's
00:36:08coronation, not knowing it was Alaric who was trying to spare me from watching Nathan
00:36:13announce my own handmaid, Rosalie, as his new partner.
00:36:17I'd called Alaric every name I could think of, told him to go die, and when I'd tried
00:36:22to poison myself that night, he hadn't hesitated.
00:36:25He'd used his own heart's blood to make the cure.
00:36:28A man like the Lord, and he ends up with her.
00:36:31What rotten luck.
00:36:33I picked up the flowers and the gown from the sofa, and dropped them straight into the
00:36:37trash.
00:36:38Margaret went rigid.
00:36:39What are you doing now?
00:36:40I looked up.
00:36:41Where's Alaric?
00:36:42Margaret turned away.
00:36:44I don't know.
00:36:45No one in this palace would ever tell me where he was, because every time I went looking for
00:36:49him, something went wrong.
00:36:51Fine.
00:36:52I'd find him myself.
00:36:53I moved through the halls from memory, room by room, until I pushed open the door to his
00:36:58study.
00:36:59The smell of blood hit me like a wall.
00:37:01Alaric sat on the floor, shirt off, surrounded by a pool of dark red.
00:37:05His black tail cast faint, flickering light, head bowed, face drained of color, dangerous,
00:37:12breathtaking.
00:37:13I'd known drawing his blood caused pain.
00:37:15I hadn't imagined it looked like this.
00:37:17He heard the door and didn't turn around.
00:37:19Get out.
00:37:20I didn't move.
00:37:21His aura exploded.
00:37:23Savage.
00:37:24Suffocating.
00:37:26Do you have a death wish?
00:37:29He saw it was me.
00:37:30The threat died in his throat.
00:37:32He turned away fast, scrambling to hide his tail.
00:37:34Well, hands clumsy with something that looked almost like embarrassment.
00:37:38Seeing him alive, it should have made me happy.
00:37:41Instead, my voice cracked.
00:37:42Alaric?
00:37:44Does it hurt?
00:37:45His hand stilled, then a cold laugh.
00:37:49Not your concern.
00:37:50What do you want this time?
00:37:52My husband.
00:37:54Austin and I hated each other more than anything or anyone else in this world.
00:37:58He hated me for separating him and Alice, whereas I hated him for loving my sister.
00:38:09Belle, you used your power as the princess and forced me to marry you.
00:38:14You ruined the love Alice and I had between us.
00:38:17Are you happy now?
00:38:24Come back here, Austin!
00:38:26Austin!
00:38:36Alice, the woman he loved, was married off to the tyrant Arthur, the ruler of the Titanica.
00:38:42After being married for a year, Alice could no longer stand Arthur's ruthless and chose to commit suicide.
00:38:47Austin felt that I was the one to blame for all of this.
00:38:52For the next eight years, the most we've said to each other was,
00:38:56I wished you'd rot in hell.
00:39:01Alice's death caused Arthur to end the peace treaty and declared war on Alepsey.
00:39:06Austin guarded the sacred jade-tide sitting for seven whole years.
00:39:30Alice's death caused by a man who was the one to blame for all of this.
00:39:38Austin, what the hell are you doing?
00:39:40Get as far away from here as you can, Belle.
00:39:42Don't look back.
00:39:44With that said, Austin turned around and stood between me and Arthur troops.
00:39:48He acted like a barrier, shielding them from danger.
00:39:52Loose arrows!
00:40:08Austin, no, Austin!
00:40:10Austin!
00:40:15No, no!
00:40:16If there's a next life, may Sea God let me marry Alice.
00:40:26I never thought that the reason you saved me was so that you and Alice can be reunited again in
00:40:37your next lives.
00:40:47If there is a next life, I will never marry him again.
00:41:02When I opened my eyes again,
00:41:04I found myself back on the day where I asked Mother to allow me to be engaged to Austin.
00:41:12Belle, Arthur is continuously provoking the jade-tiddle city.
00:41:17The only option that we have now is to arrange a marriage of convenience.
00:41:21Are you sure you want me to marry you off to Austin at now?
00:41:25I've changed my mind, Mother.
00:41:27I no longer want to marry Austin.
00:41:29I'm willing to marry Arthur.
00:41:32What?
00:41:35Do you mean it?
00:41:36Don't you want to marry Austin anymore?
00:41:40In my past life, Arthur attacked Atlantis and Austin died in battle.
00:41:45Because Alice killed herself to avoid the marriage, enraging Arthur.
00:41:49If I take her place and marry Arthur, maybe I can prevent the war.
00:41:56Mother, I'm willing to let us marry Austin in my place.
00:41:59And I'll marry Arthur in her place.
00:42:03Messenger, send an oracle to Arthur.
00:42:07The marriage between him and Belle will take place in five days.
00:42:11Belle, the authentic city, we will forever remember your name.
00:42:15Remember my name?
00:42:16It doesn't really matter.
00:42:18To her, the daughter of her lover, Alice is more important.
00:42:21That's why he's willing to let me marry Arthur.
00:42:33Austin is here.
00:42:34Please, Queen Elena, take back the oracle.
00:42:37Please don't let Alice marry Arthur.
00:42:39Get Austin out of here.
00:42:41Let me go!
00:42:43Belle!
00:42:43Belle!
00:42:44In my past life, I ordered the guards to take Austin away.
00:42:48That herther, I also forced him to marry me.
00:42:51Just like in my past life, he came to beg Mother not wait to marry Alice to Arthur.
00:42:57What are you doing here?
00:42:59Austin, did it ever cross your mind that if Alice would marry Arthur, then I'll have to marry him in
00:43:03her place?
00:43:05I'm the warlord here.
00:43:06I'll crush Arthur and neither of you will marry him.
00:43:11I'll hold this city and keep it safe.
00:43:13That's my word.
00:43:16Austin, either me or Alice will have to marry Arthur.
00:43:19It's a fact that you can't just no matter what you do.
00:43:22I can stop this marriage from happening.
00:43:24If you stop breathing in Elena's ear.
00:43:29Such a pity.
00:43:33What are you up to now?
00:43:35What do you mean by that?
00:43:37I'm just hoping that your wish will come true.
00:43:40There's no way I'm telling him that I'll be the person marrying Arthur.
00:43:43He'll definitely be happy when he sees that Alice is his bride.
00:43:47Right?
00:43:48Austin.
00:43:49You gave your life to protect me in my previous life.
00:43:52So now it's my turn to help you marry Alice.
00:43:57Why is Belle acting so strangely today?
00:43:59In the past, she was only to order the guards kicking health.
00:44:02What the hell is she up to?
00:44:06Arthur is an ambitious person.
00:44:08He's always wanted to rule Ocean in my past life.
00:44:11Alice committed suicide only after marrying him for less than a year.
00:44:14When I marry Arthur, I'll use my own life to maintain the peace.
00:44:26Belle.
00:44:27Why are you so determined to convince Elena to marry Alice to Arthur?
00:44:32Are you trying to get Alice killed?
00:44:35Austin!
00:44:36You're hurting me!
00:44:39Belle.
00:44:40Someone as heartless as you don't deserve to be loved!
00:44:43Do you think I'd marry you just because Elena tells me to?
00:44:48The hateful look in his eyes was exactly the same as in my past life.
00:44:57Watch your attitude, Austin!
00:45:06I'm sorry.
00:45:08I had a little too much to drink.
00:45:13The marriage is going to happen whether you like it or not.
00:45:17You'll get what you want on the day of the wedding.
00:45:21How can I possibly get what I want with you around?
00:45:23You're going to get Alice killed!
00:45:25The only person you've ever cared about was Alice.
00:45:29Have you ever thought about what will happen to me?
00:45:32Get out of my sight now, Austin.
00:45:38My marriage to Arthur will be announced soon, Austin.
00:45:42This time, I no longer want to marry you.
00:45:51Austin has brought medicine to treat your wound.
00:45:54Let me apply the medicine for you.
00:45:59The only reason Austin cares about me is to repay my father for taking him in.
00:46:03But in my past life, I actually thought it was love.
00:46:08Give the medicine back to Austin.
00:46:11Also, ask Alice to meet me in the garden.
00:46:13There's something I want to tell her.
00:46:23What do you want?
00:46:27This is for your marriage.
00:46:30Congratulations.
00:46:31Damn it.
00:46:32I can't believe you want me to marry Arthur.
00:46:35Why aren't you marrying him?
00:46:36You're Elena's daughter as well.
00:46:38I advise you to take a look.
00:46:44What?
00:46:48The Oracle wants me to marry Austin and you to marry Arthur.
00:46:52I thought you loved Austin.
00:46:53What are you after?
00:46:54I'm not after anything, but I do have one request.
00:46:59What is it?
00:47:01You must keep this a secret until the day of our wedding.
00:47:05Okay.
00:47:06You have my word.
00:47:08This is me repaying Austin for saving me and my past life.
00:47:11I also putting an end between us.
00:47:17Austin didn't know that the eye was the one who was going to marry Arthur.
00:47:20He went and asked for help from the priest to prevent Alice marrying Arthur.
00:47:32Are you here to see me make a fool of myself?
00:47:34I'll be honest with you, Belle.
00:47:36I won't let Alice marry Arthur.
00:47:37And I won't marry you either.
00:47:39All right then.
00:47:41I hope you're a man of your word.
00:47:44Austin!
00:47:50Alice seemed really happy after she found out that she didn't have to marry Arthur.
00:47:55Austin, where's the little coral carving you promised?
00:47:58Here you go.
00:48:01You're the best.
00:48:02Have you ever given wooden sculptures to anyone else?
00:48:05No.
00:48:06I only give it to people that I really care about.
00:48:11My father taught Austin the art of forging ocean weapons.
00:48:15He used to train me himself.
00:48:19No.
00:48:20No.
00:48:32After he was gone, Austin took over, and made weapons for me.
00:48:53I will protect you.
00:48:55Always.
00:48:58But ever since Alice showed up, his focus has shifted to her.
00:49:08You're not allowed to give Alice a gift!
00:49:11I can do what I want, Belle.
00:49:17Austin, have you forgotten?
00:49:19My father was killed by Alice's father.
00:49:23Can I ask for more gifts?
00:49:25Of course you can.
00:49:29Then, I want a coral sword.
00:49:31A coral sword.
00:49:33Alice never liked such things.
00:49:34She was just trying to show off.
00:49:41Why is Belle leaving?
00:49:42Is she mad?
00:49:44Don't worry, Austin.
00:49:45I'll be marrying Arthur in three days' wine.
00:49:47You won't have to see me ever again.
00:49:55Your Highness, someone has put this box outside the palace this morning.
00:50:03This coral sword was made by Austin.
00:50:06Only he can craft such a fine weapon.
00:50:11So childish.
00:50:14Your Highness, the sword.
00:50:19I'll just see as the last present he'll give me in this life.
00:50:22Are you going to banquet tomorrow night?
00:50:24Sure.
00:50:29This will be my last banquet in Atlantis.
00:50:35Alice, are you really going to marry Arthur?
00:50:38Belle is so selfish.
00:50:39As Seaking's daughter, why isn't she the one marrying Arthur?
00:50:43You're so brave, Alice.
00:50:45I'm going to miss you.
00:50:51As Elena's daughter, I am willing to sacrifice myself to protect Atlantis.
00:50:56You're too kind, Alice.
00:50:58Austin clearly in love with you.
00:50:59But Belle only wants him to marry her.
00:51:02I bet Belle's souls has already been tainted.
00:51:08Who's talking about me behind my back?
00:51:13I've never attended any banquets.
00:51:15Alice thought that I wouldn't come this time either.
00:51:18That's why she's pretend to be the victim now.
00:51:22In my past life, they died in the chaos of war.
00:51:26Unaware of how tragic their fates were.
00:51:51I know you're marrying Arthurie in my place.
00:51:54But you're doing it out of your own free will.
00:51:57You took away my glory.
00:51:59Your glory.
00:52:01What makes you think you can get Arthur to keep his word if you marry him?
00:52:10Do you think someone as soft as you can stand Arthur?
00:52:14I'll be honest with you.
00:52:15You won't even be able to last a year with him.
00:52:19I'm saving your life here.
00:52:21What did you just say?
00:52:43Belle, you actually summoned a sea monster.
00:52:45You're trying to murder me.
00:52:48Help me, Austin!
00:52:52Help!
00:52:59I can't believe you can be heartless, Austin.
00:53:02Someone get her out of there!
00:53:15Are you out of your goddamn mind, Belle?
00:53:17What's it good to you if she dies?
00:53:18Are you willing to marry Arthur if she dies?
00:53:23Austin, I...
00:53:24Enough!
00:53:25I can't believe you can be so ruthless.
00:53:28Alice is so kind and you actually want her dead.
00:53:30You don't deserve to be princess.
00:53:33It's a good thing that your father died early.
00:53:35He'd be really upset if she sees you like this.
00:53:40Austin...
00:53:46Just like in my past life, after Austin and I were married, we have drawn our swords many times over
00:53:53Alice, but we've never hurt each other.
00:53:55But this time...
00:54:04Belle!
00:54:05What happened to you?
00:54:16You have no right to talk about my father.
00:54:23Belle!
00:54:24Belle!
00:54:25Wake up!
00:54:29Austin!
00:54:30I...
00:54:36Damn it, Belle!
00:54:38How dare you get between Austin and me!
00:54:40I...
00:54:40I'll make you pay!
00:54:49I...
00:54:52I...
00:54:56I'll make you pay!
00:55:01In past life, Austin has never taken the initiative to come find me.
00:55:08What are you doing here?
00:55:10I'm sorry.
00:55:11I didn't know what came over me.
00:55:21You don't need to apologize to me.
00:55:23I...
00:55:27I...
00:55:28I...
00:55:28I...
00:55:28I...
00:55:37You'll soon be free, Austin.
00:55:40When I leave to marry Arthur, you'll be able to marry your most beloved Alice.
00:55:46When that happens, you won't have to deal with me anymore.
00:55:56What are you looking for, your highness?
00:55:58Where's the box with my father's belongings?
00:56:00I'm leaving in two days.
00:56:02I want to take my father's belongings with me.
00:56:08No, no!
00:56:09No!
00:56:17I thought the Sea King had left Belle something precious.
00:56:20But it's all a bunch of crap.
00:56:25Alice!
00:56:26Alice!
00:56:34I'm heading off to Tarkaro soon, Belle.
00:56:36I just want to play with these toys a little.
00:56:39Please don't be mad at me.
00:56:43What did you just say?
00:56:45Ah!
00:56:51It's only a bunch of crap.
00:56:53What's the big deal?
00:56:54Why are you getting so worked up over them?
00:56:56Did you give the box that my father left me to Alice, Austin?
00:57:03Only Austin knows where I keep the box.
00:57:05You ruined Alice's life by forcing her to marry Arthur.
00:57:08Can't you just let her play with these crappy toys for a while?
00:57:11Crappy toys?
00:57:15These were left to me by my father.
00:57:17I know.
00:57:18I'll give you ones that are even better in return.
00:57:21How?
00:57:22Who do you think you are?
00:57:26Who do you think you are?
00:57:28Stop!
00:57:32Austin, save me!
00:57:44What is it?
00:57:45The young master said he's not settled in yet.
00:57:48That's all.
00:57:49Please, Master Alderick.
00:57:50I'm just trying to keep my job.
00:57:52Not so fast.
00:57:53There's something you must do first.
00:58:03The Queen's Invitation is inside.
00:58:05It opens only with every family member's mark.
00:58:08So that's why you brought me back.
00:58:10Don't waste your breath, Grandpa.
00:58:12A mute cannot chant.
00:58:13No chant, no spell.
00:58:15He is useless.
00:58:18If he can't chant, I'll teach him signal casting.
00:58:21No chant needed.
00:58:22I will demonstrate only once.
00:58:24Watch carefully.
00:58:27Did you see that?
00:58:30Alderick, perhaps I can explain the magical flow itself.
00:58:33Good lord.
00:58:33Even infants grasp signal casting faster than him.
00:58:41Good boy.
00:58:47That little bastard does not deserve the Queen's banquet.
00:58:52Once he leaves his seal,
00:58:54kill him.
00:59:02It worked.
00:59:15You damn fool.
00:59:17No, it wasn't me.
00:59:21Grandpa, it was him.
00:59:22He did it on purpose.
00:59:24He sicked that snake on me.
00:59:25He never forgave us for casting him out.
00:59:27He's back to destroy House Malville.
00:59:29Filthy little bastard.
00:59:31This family showed you mercy,
00:59:32and this is how you repay us?
00:59:33How dare you?
00:59:34We should have left you starving in the hutter.
00:59:36You freak.
00:59:37You just destroyed the Queen's Invitation.
00:59:40You've ruined House Malvin's future.
00:59:42Perhaps you require discipline.
00:59:47You're in.
00:59:48What did we do?
00:59:51Attack.
00:59:54You.
01:00:00Caelan.
01:00:01He is your cousin.
01:00:02Uncle Theory.
01:00:03So you're the one protecting this freak after all.
01:00:06So, does he even protect his son?
01:00:09He's a disgrace to House Malvin. He deserves no mercy.
01:00:12Theon, look at your son.
01:00:13If you protect that boy, you're standing against all of us!
01:00:21I thought you'd be different.
01:00:23I'm sorry, that's not what I meant.
01:00:25Just apologize, and this is over.
01:00:30Aldrich, confess your crimes at once, or I will show you no mercy!
01:00:33Grandpa, look at him. He still refuses to repent.
01:00:36You little brat! Apologize now, or I'll turn you over to the Queen!
01:00:43At three, I had no voice.
01:00:45House Malvern cast me as a magicless wretch, along with my sick mother.
01:00:54Yet today, you call me back.
01:00:57Young Master, we've arrived.
01:00:58A mute heir to a magic house.
01:01:01No wonder he was thrown away.
01:01:06As a thousand-year house of magic, we have no place for a magicless wretch who can't cast a single
01:01:12spell!
01:01:14Get out!
01:01:14Get out!
01:01:15Last year, illness took mother from me.
01:01:18You and my cowardly father just stood by.
01:01:21Now you use bloodline to falsely reel me in.
01:01:24You think I'm still that dumb kid?
01:01:26Queen Victoria's banquet is in two days.
01:01:28The Malverns need full attendance to escape punishment.
01:01:31That's why I'm really here.
01:01:33After a seven-year absence, could you show me the way to the main hall?
01:01:36I'm lost.
01:01:37What are you waving for, little mute cull?
01:01:39I don't get mute signs.
01:01:48Insolent fool.
01:01:49I've killed countless before.
01:01:51I'm sorry, young master, that the main hall is straight ahead!
01:01:54I see a mute wretch, but my soul is the dark sorcerer dreaded by all demons, Mar-Logos.
01:02:25I see a début just before.
01:02:40The Abyssal Curse has found me. There is no escape.
01:02:52To regain my past prime.
01:02:55I started the Silence Curse at 3.
01:02:57It left me mute, unable to cast ordinary spells.
01:03:01Aldrich, say, Grandpa.
01:03:04Congenital muteness.
01:03:08I planned to break Mother's dying wish and stay away.
01:03:11But since I'm here, I'll make you all kneel and repent at my Mother's grave.
01:03:24Silent Freak! What gives you the nerve to keep us waiting? Come here and apologize!
01:03:31How have you been all these years?
01:03:34Grandpa, why bother? He is mute. Are we keeping a maid here just to read his hands?
01:03:39The Queen's Banquet nears. If our coldness shames this house, none of us will escape the consequences.
01:03:47I...
01:03:47Father, please, go mad.
01:03:50Child...
01:03:52I know the family failed you, and your mother.
01:03:55But Grandpa will set things right now.
01:04:05You are a Malvin, and you shall never wander again.
01:04:10Grandpa, have you lost your senses?
01:04:11He's a wretch who can't even chant. Keeping him will shame us all.
01:04:14Enough! My decision is final.
01:04:17Aldrich, thank your grandpa. Quickly!
01:04:26You threw me away like refuse. Now you call this mercy?
01:04:30What does he mean?
01:04:32He says you threw him away like refuse.
01:04:35Aldrich, how could you say that?
01:04:36Refute. At least the wretch knows his place.
01:04:39I offered you a second chance for the sake of our bloodline.
01:04:42I saved you from wandering like a stray.
01:04:45House Malvern was never worthy of me. I returned to make you kneel at Mother's grave.
01:04:49What is all that?
01:04:52What is it?
01:04:53The young master said he's not settled in yet, that's all.
01:04:56Please, Master Aldrich, I'm just trying to keep my job.
01:04:58Not so fast. There's something you must do first.
01:05:07The Queen's invitation is inside. It opens only with every family member's mark.

01:05:26Did you see that?
01:05:28Aldrich, perhaps I can explain the magical flow itself.
01:05:30Good Lord! Even infants grasp signal casting faster than him.
01:05:36Good boy.
01:05:41That little bastard does not deserve the Queen's banquet.
01:05:45Once he leaves his seal, kill him.
01:05:53It worked!
01:06:02You damn fool!

01:06:19You freak! You just destroyed the Queen's invitation!
01:06:21You've ruined House Malvin's future!
01:06:23Perhaps you require discipline.
01:06:29Attack!
01:06:35You!
01:06:38Caelan! He is your cousin!
01:06:39Uncle Theory!
01:06:40So you're the one protecting this freak after all.
01:06:42So, does he even protect his son?
01:06:44He's a disgrace to House Malvin.
01:06:45He deserves no mercy.
01:06:46Theon! Look at your son!
01:06:47If you protect that boy, you're standing against all of us!
01:06:53I thought you'd be different.
01:06:55I'm sorry. That's not what I meant.
01:06:56Just apologize, and this is over.
01:06:59Aldrich!
01:07:00Confess your crimes at once, or I will show you no mercy!
01:07:03Grandpa, look at him. He still refuses to repent.
01:07:05You little brat!

01:08:00Insult fool.
01:08:01I've killed countless before.
01:08:03I'm sorry, young master, but the main hall is straight ahead!
01:08:05I see a mute wretch, but my soul is the dark sorcerer dreaded by all demons, Mar-Logos.
01:08:09check out the movie that was too fast to remember.
01:08:13And, nothing that doesn't times!
01:08:34And yeah, happy when we get there!
01:08:36Since the next game is a half, einander who has helped us,
01:08:37Apple do the movie, Hot warranty!
01:08:37Or something isn't padding for us when democratically getsannel
01:08:41The abyssal curse has found me. There is no escape.

01:13:53We have names.
01:13:53Tell them, you just said they were아냥!
01:13:54I can't do anything because they weren't.
01:13:55All in the comments.
01:13:55All in the comments.
01:14:04Well, and you're going to ask me this.
01:14:04Pawns.
01:14:05You want to know.
01:14:06I'm going to ask for you more of the audience?
01:14:07It's something that you said.
01:14:07It's something that you say.
01:14:08Let's go to the next story.
01:14:10The abyssal curse has found me. There is no escape.

01:17:28Attack!
01:17:29Attack!
01:17:34You!
01:17:37Caelan!
01:17:37Caelan!
01:17:38He is your cousin!
01:17:38Uncle Theory!
01:17:39So you're the one protecting this freak after all.
01:17:41So, does he even protect his son?
01:17:43He's a disgrace to House Malvin.
01:17:45He deserves no mercy.
01:17:45Theon, look at your son.
01:17:47If you protect that boy, you're standing against all of us!
01:17:53I thought you'd be different.
01:17:54I'm sorry. That's not what I meant. Just apologize and this is over.
01:17:59Aldrich, confess your crimes at once or I will show you no mercy!
01:18:02Grandpa, look at him. He still refuses to repent.
01:18:04You little brat! Apologize now or I'll turn you over to the Queen!
01:18:09At three, I had no voice. House Malvern cast me as a magicless wretch along with my sick mother.
01:18:18Yet today, you call me back.
01:18:20Young master, we've arrived.
01:18:21A mute heir to a magic house.
01:18:23No wonder he was thrown away.
01:18:27As a thousand year house of magic, we have no place for a magicless wretch who can't cast a single
01:18:32spell!
01:18:33Get out! Get out!
01:18:34Last year, illness took mother from me.
01:18:36You and my cowardly father just stood by.
01:18:39Now you use bloodline to falsely reel me in.
01:18:41You think I'm still that dumb kid?
01:18:42Queen Victoria's banquet is in two days. The Malverns need full attendance to escape punishment.
01:18:46That's why I'm really here.
01:18:48After a seven-year absence, could you show me the way to the main hall?
01:18:51I'm lost.
01:18:51What are you waving for, little mute cull?
01:18:53I don't get mute signs.
01:18:59Insult fool!
01:19:00I've killed countless before.
01:19:02I'm sorry, young master, that the main hall is straight ahead!
01:19:04I see a mute wretch, but my soul is the dark sorcerer dreaded by all demons, Mar-Logos.
01:19:40The Abyssal Curse has found me!
01:19:41There is no escape.
01:19:49To regain my past prime.
01:19:51I started the silence curse at 3.
01:19:53It left me mute, unable to cast ordinary spells.
01:19:56Aldrich, say, Grandpa.
01:19:58Congenital muteness.
01:20:01I plan to break Mother's dying wish and stay away.
01:20:04But since I'm here, I'll make you all kneel.
01:20:06And repent at my Mother's grave.
01:20:13Silent Freak!
01:20:14What gives you the nerve to keep us waiting?
01:20:16Come here and apologize!
01:20:19How have you been all these years?
01:20:21Grandpa, why bother? He is mute.
01:20:22Are we keeping a maid here just to read his hands?
01:20:25The Queen's Banquet nears.
01:20:26If our coldness shames this house,
01:20:28none of us will escape the consequences.
01:20:31I...
01:20:31Father, please, don't be mad.
01:20:33Child, I know the family failed you,
01:20:36and your mother.
01:20:37But Grandpa would set things right now.
01:20:45You are a Malvin,
01:20:46and you shall never wander again.
01:20:48Grandpa, have you lost your senses?
01:20:50He's a wretch who can't even chant.
01:20:51Keeping him will shame us all.
01:20:52Enough!
01:20:53My decision is final.
01:20:54Aldrich, thank you, Grandpa.
01:20:55Quickly!
01:21:01You threw me away like refuse.
01:21:02Now you call this mercy?
01:21:04What does he mean?
01:21:05He says you threw him away like refuse.
01:21:08Aldrich, how could you say that?
01:21:09Refute.
01:21:09At least the wretch knows his place.
01:21:11I offered you a second chance for the sake of our bloodline.
01:21:13I saved you from wandering like a stray.
01:21:15House Malvern was never worthy of me.
01:21:17I returned to make you kneel at Mother's grave.
01:21:19What is all that?
01:21:20Yet I'm not dead.
01:21:20And also him
01:21:21I don't know yet.
01:21:21I understand.
01:21:21I
