00:00J'ai été choqué contre un pecho duro et caliente.
00:03Après un arme, il s'est mis barbilla.
00:06Il était un homme de traje, de cabello engominado, avec sangue en la quijada.
00:10Le homme de mirada mortal ne l'est pas.
00:12En sonant à la table, il était de blanc, avec une coute.
00:16Il se avait agoté.
00:18Il n'est pas apporté les yeux.
00:20Il s'est fait à sonre comme un soldat.
00:23Il n'est pas à sonre.
00:24Au final, il s'est arrêté et la coute.
00:26Il s'est arrêté le entrecejo.
00:29Su voix sonó grave y ronca.
00:31Un bocado.
00:32Dije, asintió apenas.
00:34Me tendió el plato.
00:35Inténtalo.
00:36Y darle una cucharada.
00:38Abre.

01:27La noche que firmé el divorcio y me fui sin nada, vagué sola bajo la lluvia con una bolsa y
01:34solo 36 dólares.
01:36Entonces vi un volante en un poste.
01:40Se busca madrastra, alojamiento y comida.
01:43Eso me convenció.
01:44Esa misma noche, fui a esa dirección.
01:46Entré directo a la mansión de Lucas Castellano, el don de la mafia más antigua de Nueva York.
01:52Después, mi ex me miró con la misma arrogancia.
01:55Nora, ¿ya ves que estabas mal?
01:58Antes de responder, el tirano de cuatro años gritó.
02:01¿En qué se equivocó?
02:03Mi mamá es la mejor.
02:05El don me rodeó con un brazo y lo apartó.
02:08Mi esposa nunca se equivoca.
02:09Y aunque lo hiciera, seguiría teniendo razón.
02:11Nunca imaginé que quienes ponían volantes en postes eran la mafia más poderosa de Nueva York.
02:17Ahora estaba ante su mansión.
02:19A mi lado, el mayordomo irradiaba una fría arrogancia.
02:23El don busca una madre para su hijo, no una esposa.
02:27Debe tenerlo claro.
02:28El don es muy codiciado.
02:30No se haga ilusiones.
02:32Bajé la mirada.
02:34Sinceramente, el trabajo era perfecto.
02:36En pocas palabras, solo querían una niñera de lujo.
02:39Ocho horas antes, había firmado el divorcio y me habían echado de casa.
02:43Lo último que quería era otro esposo.
02:45Pero un techo, tres comidas, un lugar donde huir, era un milagro.
02:50Entiendo.
02:51No me haré ilusiones.
02:52El mayordomo me guió por un corredor oscuro y abovedado.
02:55Entonces oí algo como un disparo.
02:58Tropecé y choqué contra un pecho duro y caliente.
03:01Primero olí.
03:02Sangre, pólvora.
03:04Luego, un arma alzó mi barbilla.
03:06Era un hombre de traje, de cabello engominado, con sangre en la quijada, y una serpiente tatuada que le subía
03:12al cuello.
03:14Respiré agitada.
03:16El arma bajó.
03:18Entre mis pechos mojados.
03:20Me observó un buen rato.
03:22Al final, se fue sin decir nada.
03:24Ya conocía ese rostro.
03:26Página 6.
03:26El diario de Nueva York.
03:28El don castellano.
03:29Sebastián pasó un mes estudiando sus fotos.
03:32Intentando acercarse a la familia mafiosa que lo respaldaba.
03:35El mayordomo habló.
03:37El don atiende asuntos.
03:39No se preocupe.
03:40Asentí en silencio.
03:41Me llevó a cambiarme.
03:43Y luego al comedor.
03:44Había una mesa larga.
03:46Bajo un candelabro.
03:48Y al fondo, padre e hijo estaban enfrentados.
03:51El hombre de mirada mortal ya no estaba.
03:53En su lugar, a la mesa, estaba él, de blanco, con una cuchara.
03:58Se veía agotado.
03:59El niño apretó los labios.
04:02Y desafió a su padre como un soldadito.
04:04Ninguno cedió.
04:05Al final, él suspiró y dejó la cuchara.
04:08Se frotó el entrecejo.
04:11Su voz sonó grave y ronca.
04:13Un bocado.
04:14Uno pequeño.
04:15¿Es pedir demasiado?
04:16El mayordomo avanzó.
04:18Don Lucas.
04:19Llegó la candidata.
04:20El hombre volteó.
04:21Tenía la camisa abierta.
04:23Ya veía casi todo el tatuaje.
04:25Sus músculos se marcaban bajo el lino blanco.
04:28El más tenido.
04:29El hombre más tenido de Nueva York.
04:31Heredó el poder a los dieciséis.
04:33Lo hizo más grande, más oscuro y discreto que su padre.
04:36Dinero, poder, sangre en las manos.
04:38No era un sueño.
04:39Ni una estafa.
04:41Lucas Castellano no tenía por qué estafar a una divorciada pobre.
04:45Su mirada me recorrió.
04:47Distante y cansada.
04:48Nombre.
04:49Seguro venía directo de sus asuntos.
04:51Lidiar con traidores.
04:53Torturar enemigos.
04:54Y ahora lo vencí a un niño.
04:56Darle de comer era más duro que dirigir su imperio.
04:59Nora Benítez.
05:00Dije.
05:01Asintió apenas.
05:02Me tendió el plato.
05:03Inténtalo.
05:04Así era mi entrevista.
05:05Si no pasaba, dormiría en el metro.
05:08Le di mi sonrisa más tierna y fui hacia él.
05:11No avancé ni dos pasos.
05:13Zaz se metió bajo la mesa.
05:15Solo asomó los ojos.
05:17Oscuros, redondos y furiosos.
05:19No la quiero.
05:20Que se vaya.
05:21Es una mala mujer.
05:22Todas son malas.
05:23Antes de mí.
05:25Ese niño ya había tenido quien sabe cuántas madrastras.
05:28Bien.
05:29Debía dar lo mejor.
05:30Miré el cuarto y lo capté.
05:32Figuras por doquier.
05:34Batman.
05:35Spider-Man.
05:36Y una repisa llena de Avengers.
05:38Tomé dos.
05:54La menchen.
05:54Una repisa.
05:58La reina.
05:58La guitarra.
05:58La feito.
06:18La reina.
19:00C'est ce moment-là, j'ai déjà vu.
19:02A wail split l'air.
19:03La dragon queen threw herself across the coffin,
19:06tears streaking her face.
19:07My son!
19:10Then she spun and pointed at me.
19:12It's you!
19:13You cursed him!
19:14You killed my boy!
19:16She never wanted me for her son.
19:17I had once brought my doubts to Kaelin
19:19and he had sworn to me with absolute certainty.
19:22No matter what,
19:23I will always take your side.
19:25His mother slapped me without warning.
19:27Her palm cracked across my cheek so hard
19:29the hall went still.
19:30She raised her hand again.
19:31The dragon king barked at his guards to intervene.
19:34Enough!
19:37The hall erupted into chaos.
19:39Through all of it,
19:41Kaelin stood quietly at my sister's side,
19:43holding her hand.
19:44He reached into his coat
19:45and produced a small, glimmering stone,
19:47a water spirit stone,
19:48pale blue, luminous.
19:50He held it out to my sister like an offering.
19:52He murmured, low and tender.
19:56Sarah.
19:57I brought this back for you.
19:59I smiled without warmth.
20:01I had always wanted a water spirit stone.
20:03In my last life,
20:05I had asked Kaelin for one,
20:06begged him.
20:07Every time he left for war,
20:09he always said yes,
20:10but I never received it.
20:11Now I understood.
20:13He had in short hand forgotten to look.
20:15He had simply never intended to give it to me.
20:17My sister noticed me watching.
20:19Her expression cooled.
20:20She stepped slightly in front of Kaelin,
20:22shielding him.
20:22She said,
20:23Why do you keep staring at my husband?
20:26The Dragon King exhaled slowly.
20:29Lyah,
20:30by the laws of our house,
20:32when a spouse falls in battle,
20:34the surviving partner
20:35must remain in mourning
20:36for a hundred years.
20:38I won't force you,
20:39but I need to know.
20:41What will you do?
20:42I shook my head.
20:43I choose the second path.
20:45I'll remarry.
20:47Silence.
20:48The entire hall went motionless.
20:51Kaelin spoke first.
20:53Absurd!
20:54His voice was tight.
20:55Lyra,
20:56you can't marry someone else.
20:58The Dragon King and my sister
21:00exchanged a glance,
21:01both suddenly alert.
21:04Pushed at his hand instead,
21:06bit by bit,
21:07prying his grip from my wrist.
21:09Then I shook out my aching hand
21:11and went back to my room,
21:13muttering the whole way.
21:14He looked down at his own hand,
21:16then back toward where I'd gone.
21:18A faint flush crept into the corners of his eyes.
21:21When some...
21:22Little sister, look.
21:23A white snake.
21:24He'll shift into a dragon one day
21:26and spoil you rotten.
21:27My sister set him into my open hand.
21:30Evelyn, you're too generous.
21:31White serpents ascend more often than black ones,
21:34and your sister doesn't have your looks
21:35or your temperament.
21:37By any measure,
21:38you're the better match.
21:38My sister's face flickered.
21:40I'm the elder sister.
21:41It's only right.
21:43I said nothing.
21:44Anyone who looked carefully
21:45could see the white snake was barely alive.
21:48While the black one had fierce eyes
21:50and scales like polished lacquer,
21:52my sister knew exactly what she was giving away.
21:55In my last life,
21:57I'd taken him out of pity.
21:58My sister had taken the strong one.
22:00Black scales.
22:01Sharp eyes.
22:02Already choosing her before she'd finished reaching.
22:05She'd handed me the leftover.
22:06Half dead.
22:07Colorless.
22:08Barely breathing.
22:09I'd brought him home anyway.
22:11Ten years.
22:12I spent everything I had.
22:14I'd told him once,
22:15in the dark,
22:16that I wouldn't leave him
22:17even if he never shifted.
22:19I thought those eyes looking up at me meant something.
22:21Then the flood came.
22:23He became a dragon overnight.
22:25And he pulled my sister out of the water
22:27while I went under.
22:28He'd been able to take human form for months.
22:30He'd heard every word I ever said to him.
22:33He simply hadn't thought I was worth answering.
22:36Now, staring at those tiny fangs raised at me in contempt,
22:41I felt nothing but irony.
22:43Crack!
22:43I threw him at the stone,
22:45swung my pack on,
22:46and walked.
22:47Little sister!
22:47My sister scrambled to cup him in her hands.
22:50He's a living creature!
22:53All living things have their time.
22:55If he falls today, that's his fate.
22:58The villagers closed in,
23:00whispering,
23:01cold-blooded,
23:02not like Evelyn.
23:03Beautiful people have good hearts.
23:05My sister told them not to say such things,
23:07which naturally drew every eye back to her with fresh sympathy.
23:11She always did this,
23:13pointed the blade at me,
23:14then turned around,
23:15playing peacemaker with a wounded look,
23:18as though she were the one enduring hardship.
23:20I smiled.
23:20If you're that kind-hearted, sister,
23:23take them both.
23:25Go ahead.
23:26If he ever ascends,
23:27I won't expect a thing.
23:30She had no answer.
23:31The crowd had already turned their hopeful eyes back to her.
23:35A flash of white light.
23:36Everyone froze.
23:37A young man in white robes stood where the snake had been.
23:41Breathtaking.
23:42A thread of blood at the corner of his mouth.
23:44Little White had shifted into human form.
23:47I tightened my grip on the pack straps without thinking.
23:50I'd always believed he learned to take human form
23:53after I'd nursed him back to health.
23:55It turned out,
23:56he'd known from the start.
23:57All those years,
23:58he'd watched me get laughed at by everyone
24:00for carrying a snake that couldn't shift.
24:03Never lifted a finger.
24:04And now,
24:05in his weakest moment,
24:06he'd forced the transformation for my sister's sake.
24:10In trying to remember,
24:11I'll take responsibility.
24:12My sister changed her tone immediately.
24:15If he could shift,
24:16Ascension wasn't far off.
24:18The whole crowd was struck silent by the sight of him.
24:21That impossible face.
24:23Little sister,
24:25since you said you didn't want him
24:26and you wouldn't hear me out,
24:28I suppose I have no choice but to take him home.
24:31Evelyn,
24:31you don't owe anyone an explanation.
24:33She's the one who gave him to you.
24:35If she dare take it back,
24:36we'll all lose respect for her.
24:38Oh, please.
24:39My sister colored slightly.
24:42My sister isn't that kind of person.
24:43I looked at Little White,
24:45cold and steady.
24:46He looked back at me through the crowd.
24:48This frantic transformation.
24:50This look in his eyes that didn't belong to a first meeting.
24:53I understood.
24:54He'd been reborn, too.
24:56He watched me turn and walk away without a shred of hesitation.
25:00Something flashed in his eyes.
25:01Confusion.
25:02Then surprise.
25:03The whole village buzzed with talk of how I'd let the most remarkable serpent in the world slip through my
25:10fingers.
25:10His divine bearing made believers of everyone.
25:14Everyone believed he would ascend to become a dragon.
25:17They mocked my blind stupidity.
25:19They praised my sister's karma for her kind heart.
25:23Everyone assumed I'd come crawling back.
25:25That I'd start fawning over him soon enough.
25:28But I went home and didn't look at him once.
25:31Eventually, the next time we passed each other, a hand caught my wrist.
25:35I yanked back.
25:37He only held on tighter.
25:38He stared at me with a furrowed brow and said nothing.
25:42That look was a question.
25:44And underneath it, something like displeasure.
25:47Was he asking why I wasn't giving him the same attention as before?
25:51Did he genuinely not know?
25:53I couldn't pull free.
25:54I pushed at his hand instead, bit by bit, prying his grip from my wrist.
25:59Then I shook out my aching hand and went back to my room, muttering the whole way.
26:05He looked down at his own hand.
26:07Then back toward where I'd gone.
26:09A faint flush crept into the corners of his eyes.
26:12When someone has favored you for a long time, perhaps that favor starts to feel like something owed.
26:18The day I stopped, he'd probably think I was the one in the wrong.
26:22All those years in my last life, dragging him everywhere with me, through rain and wind.
26:28I'd built something I'd thought was real.
26:30To cut it off so suddenly, my chest still ached with it, whether I wanted it to or not.
26:36But that night, getting up to find water, I heard voices murmuring from the corner room.
26:54I looked through the gap in the door.
26:57Little White stood with his hands clasped behind his back, white robes, back to me.
27:02So perfectly formed, he didn't seem to belong to this world.
27:05When he spoke, even his voice was like struck silver.
27:09Given that I've been given another life, I naturally mean to make amends for my regrets.
27:15The figure kneeling behind him, I couldn't see his face.
27:19But didn't your elder brother claim the first young lady first?
27:23And?
27:25Little White turned his head.
27:27I saw the cold light in his eyes catch something it had no business holding.
27:32Something burning and dangerous.
27:34I came into this life for her.
27:37Nothing will stop me from standing at her side.
27:39Not even my brother.
27:41I will not give one step.
27:43I'd heard enough.
27:44I turned to leave.
27:46Two steps out, I heard the kneeling figure ask.
27:50Why you are so devoted to a mortal woman?
27:53The moonlight softened Little White's eyes.
27:55A dragon's rest cove when I fell.
27:58I will never forget it.
27:59She lifted me in both hands and kept watch over me for 49 days.
28:03Without her I would have failed my tribulation.
28:06I'd have dissolved into nothing but old bone.
28:08Dragon's rest cove.
28:10I stopped dead.
28:11My hands had started trembling.
28:13That was where I'd once saved a small white snake.
28:16I'd kept vigil over him for 49 days.
28:19Only when he started to recover did I shoulder my herb basket and walk back to the village.
28:24I'd never told a single soul.
28:26So that snake and Little White, they were the same creature.
28:32I squeezed my fist shut.
28:34A laugh escaped me before I could stop it.
28:37Little White, you absolute fool.
28:40I had no intention of letting him know I knew.
28:43This life, I had other things to pursue.
28:48I went out to gather herbs far less than I used to.
28:52Most of my days I spent tucked away in my room, reading.
28:56Until the annual Blossom Festival, when my sister physically dragged me out of the house.
29:02It's the Blossom Festival.
29:04If you don't come, you might not get the blessing of the flower goddess this year.
29:08The flower goddess.
29:11Her blessing.
29:13I glanced back at my thoroughly dog-eared copy of the old histories,
29:17considered for a moment, and nodded.
29:23Your sister has prepared an outfit for you.
29:25Throw out all those rough old rags.
29:28You need to dress properly for the Blossom Festival.
29:30She pressed a bag into my hands and went off.
29:33The beautiful outfit turned out to be a garish thing.
29:36Red flowers clashing violently with green leaves.
29:41When I went to find something else,
29:43every other piece of clothing I owned was gone.
29:47That shade of red and that shade of green,
29:49together made someone like me, already unremarkable,
29:53look even worse.
29:54I'd been reading all day and I was hungry.
29:57With no other choice,
29:58I put on the awful thing and went out to find food.
30:01The moment I stepped outside,
30:03I ran straight into my sister,
30:05drifting through the festival in gauzy layers with a group of her friends.
30:09When she saw me, the whole group froze.
30:12Oh gods, she doesn't think that looks good.
30:16She doesn't think that looks good, does she?
30:18She's trying so hard to match the festival theme, I'll give her that.
30:22But a weed dressed up is still a weed.
30:24Is she actually trying to compete with Evelyn for Belle of the Festival?
30:30I mean, she did succeed.
30:33Just as the village fool,
30:35the fabric Evelyn's wearing.
30:38That white serpent made that with some kind of enchantment.
30:41And this one shows up in a floral sack.
30:45Everyone please.
30:46My sister floated forward in her gauzy robes,
30:49sweet perfume ahead of her.
31:05Nefrian, I helped you seize the septal,
31:07and become the king of Olympia.
31:19Now that Zeus is gone,
31:21Eris's daughter will decide our future.
31:24She's gifted with purification power,
31:26and the lover she chooses
31:27shall be the new king of Olympus.
31:33Today, I finally married my beloved Narion.
31:42Lord Narion, it's Lady Cle-
