00:00:00The serpent king called me nothing but a breeding vessel
00:00:03Then he transferred me to his missing brother
00:00:06Later, that brother came back with an army
00:00:09And declared war for me
00:00:10Now the man who broke me wants me back
00:00:13Too late
00:00:14The air in the black market arena was thick with pheromones and iron
00:00:18Humans were omega assets here
00:00:20Displayed inside glass lit cages like exotic relics
00:00:24Lot 77, omega female, fertility index, exceptional
00:00:30Previously unacclaimed for six months in the omega zone
00:00:34The cage door swings open
00:00:35I am shoved forward, barefoot, heavy iron shackles clamped around my wrists
00:00:39My expression stays calm, unflinching
00:00:42The traders hated that
00:00:44Most omegas cried when they entered the arena
00:00:46Some begged, some broke
00:00:49But I would never do that
00:00:51The moment I believed they owned me
00:00:53They would truly chain my soul forever
00:00:55She's unmarked?
00:00:57Impossible
00:00:58That body type survived omega zone?
00:01:00She looks expensive
00:01:02And at the center
00:01:03Serpent king Kael Virith
00:01:05Half shadowed
00:01:06Immobile
00:01:07Watching
00:01:08His tail curled slowly around the throne like a living verdict
00:01:11A single flick of his fingers
00:01:13I will take her
00:01:149,800,000 credits
00:01:16Auto accepted
00:01:17No further bids
00:01:18Serpent king claims lot 77
00:01:21At full sovereign price
00:01:24The gavel fell
00:01:25In the serpent world
00:01:27Fertility is a curse
00:01:28Most females never conceive
00:01:30But I gave birth to three serpent heirs at once
00:01:33Cashin, Rowan, and Niko
00:01:35And only I could soothe him during his feral heat
00:01:37I was his irreplaceable partner
00:01:40Or so I once thought
00:01:42Annual mate reconfirmation ceremony
00:01:45The hall was filled with nobles
00:01:47But tonight
00:01:48The king did not stand beside his official mate
00:01:51He holds Isla Saran in his arms
00:01:53Another omega
00:01:54Soft
00:01:55Fragile
00:01:56Familiar
00:01:57Leora Vance is no longer my mate
00:01:59I stood at the far end of the hall
00:02:01His eyes drifted over my body
00:02:03I should never have brought you back from that auction
00:02:05Isla suffered for years because of my mistake
00:02:08You are nothing but a breeding vessel
00:02:10I felt the room waiting for me to crumble
00:02:13To beg
00:02:14To prove him right
00:02:15But I had learned long ago in the omega zone
00:02:18The people who enjoy humiliating you
00:02:20Never stop when you give them tears
00:02:22Are you certain?
00:02:23I am the mother of the virith line
00:02:25The kingdom needs me
00:02:26Need you?
00:02:27Those curves, that fertility
00:02:29That's all you were
00:02:31You may stay
00:02:32After all
00:02:33You did produce hares
00:02:35But you will no longer be my mate
00:02:38My brother's household still lacks a mate
00:02:40You will be transferred to Darius
00:02:42The lost prince?
00:02:43He's assigning his mate to the vanished war god?
00:02:45Darius Virith
00:02:46King's brother
00:02:47The kingdom's most feared war god
00:02:50He vanished during the northern campaign
00:02:52But one thing remained unchanged
00:02:54No one had ever dared claim his title
00:02:56The man who had visited too often
00:02:58Even when I was first bought at the auction
00:03:00I remember it now
00:03:02He was there
00:03:03Sitting at the edge of the arena shadows
00:03:05Not bidding
00:03:06Just watching me
00:03:08He wanted me
00:03:09And that scared me more than Kale's cruelty ever did
00:03:12My eyes met Kale's without trembling
00:03:14If I am being transferred like property
00:03:17Then I refuse to belong to anyone who discarded me
00:03:20At the center of the chamber floated an enormous silver scroll
00:03:23Hundreds of glowing names drifted across its surface
00:03:26Every bonded pair in the serpent kingdom
00:03:28King Kale Virith
00:03:30You are requesting a permanent mate transfer decree?
00:03:34Once removed from the blood scroll
00:03:37This bond can never be restored
00:03:38Do you know how many clans would start a war for an omega like her?
00:03:42She carried triplets and survived
00:03:44That's practically royal blood level
00:03:46Proceed
00:03:46He answered coldly
00:03:48Without looking at me once
00:03:49The elder raised his staff
00:03:51Runes ignited beneath my feet
00:03:53Ancient magic awakened
00:03:55The golden scroll slowly unfurled itself
00:03:57Then my name appeared
00:03:59Leora Vance
00:04:00Mate of Kale Virith
00:04:02The entire chamber trembled
00:04:04The silver letters of my name began to crack
00:04:06One by one
00:04:08For a second
00:04:09I couldn't breathe
00:04:10I collapsed to my knees
00:04:12As if all the strength had drained out of me
00:04:14A tiny cry suddenly echoed through the hall
00:04:17My children
00:04:18The triplets
00:04:19The runes on their wrists flashed
00:04:21Reacting to the broken bond
00:04:23But I couldn't walk away
00:04:25The magic wasn't finished
00:04:26Another line slowly appeared
00:04:28Leora Vance
00:04:30Mate of Darius Virith
00:04:32Then something unexpected happened
00:04:34Silver flames raced through the manes
00:04:36What is happening?
00:04:37The elder's face had gone pale
00:04:40Impossible
00:04:41For the first time all night
00:04:43Kale looked up
00:04:44The moment Prince Darius returns
00:04:46The scroll will complete
00:04:47The claiming ceremony
00:04:48Kale's expression changed
00:04:50He had just given away something
00:04:52He would never get back
00:04:53The next morning
00:04:55The palace servants arrived
00:04:57Not to help me move
00:04:58To remove me
00:05:00Careful with those
00:05:01Anything that belonged
00:05:03To the former mate goes
00:05:04Isla
00:05:05Wearing Kale's royal robes
00:05:06Issued an eviction order against me
00:05:08Former mate
00:05:09The word spread through the courtyard
00:05:11Like a disease
00:05:13Servants avoided my eyes
00:05:15Some looked embarrassed
00:05:16Most looked relieved
00:05:18The king's discarded mate
00:05:20Was no longer their concern
00:05:21Isla pointed toward my herb garden
00:05:23Rip it out
00:05:24It's ugly
00:05:28Lady Lyra planted those
00:05:29For the royal earth
00:05:30Isla's smile never moved
00:05:32Then plant prettier ones
00:05:34The roots were torn from the earth
00:05:35One by one
00:05:37Mama
00:05:39It's alright
00:05:40Don't be afraid
00:05:41Then Isla picked up the toy
00:05:43That Kale had carved years ago
00:05:44This junk too
00:05:47The toy hit the ground
00:05:49Crack
00:05:50Enjoy the palace
00:05:52Everything worth having
00:05:53Was never yours
00:05:54By sunset
00:05:56I stood outside
00:05:58The palace gates
00:05:59She has nothing
00:06:01Where will she take the heirs?
00:06:03Poor thing
00:06:03Three children
00:06:05No baggage
00:06:07Nowhere to go
00:06:08A horn echoed
00:06:10Across the city
00:06:10Once
00:06:11Twice
00:06:12Three times
00:06:13Every head turned
00:06:15Black armored riders
00:06:16Entered the capital
00:06:17Elite royal guards
00:06:19The crowd immediately stepped aside
00:06:21The captain dismounted
00:06:23Walked directly toward me
00:06:24Lady Lyra
00:06:25The prince's household
00:06:27Has come to escort you home
00:06:29The estate died
00:06:31When the prince vanished
00:06:32Nobody had entered
00:06:33Darius Veritha's estate
00:06:34For years
00:06:35Not since the day
00:06:36He disappeared
00:06:37The gates stood silent
00:06:39Covered in dust
00:06:40Like a tomb
00:06:41The moment I step forward
00:06:43The gates swing open
00:06:44On their own
00:06:44Golden light exploded
00:06:46Through the estate
00:06:47Gasps everywhere
00:06:48Ancient serpent runes ignited
00:06:50Fountains awakened
00:06:52Statues opened glowing eyes
00:06:54The entire palace came alive
00:06:57The estate recognizes its mistress
00:07:00It never responded to anyone
00:07:02Inside
00:07:03The walls were lined with maps
00:07:05Weapons
00:07:06Military banners
00:07:08Portraits
00:07:09Then my oldest son Cashin stopped walking
00:07:11A painting
00:07:12Not of Darius
00:07:13Of us
00:07:14Me
00:07:15And the triplets
00:07:16My breath caught
00:07:18I had never seen it before
00:07:20Yet somehow
00:07:21Someone had painted
00:07:22Every detail perfectly
00:07:23Cashin picked up
00:07:25A wooden carving
00:07:26A tiny serpent knight
00:07:27Uncle Darius made this
00:07:29What?
00:07:31He always brought us gifts
00:07:33The servants exchanged looks
00:07:35As if they suddenly
00:07:36Understood something
00:07:37Something I didn't
00:07:39I entered Darius' study
00:07:41A single sealed letter
00:07:42Sat on the desk
00:07:43Addressed to me
00:07:44I broke the seal
00:07:46Leora if you are reading this
00:07:48Then my brother has failed you
00:07:50I always feared he would
00:07:51Kale mistakes possession for love
00:07:54And one day that mistake
00:07:55Will cost him everything
00:07:57My breath caught
00:07:58I turned the page
00:07:59Another line waited there
00:08:01There is something you deserve to know
00:08:03The day I saw you in the auction arena
00:08:06I
00:08:08My lady
00:08:10The children
00:08:11What happened?
00:08:12It's Lady Isla
00:08:13She's gone to find them
00:08:15You should be grateful
00:08:18Your mother was lucky anyone wanted her
00:08:20Mama is the best in the world
00:08:23Your mother was abandoned
00:08:25The boy's eyes flashed gold
00:08:27A warning instinct awakened
00:08:29Don't talk about mum
00:08:30This royal heir actually showed
00:08:32Defensive instinct so early
00:08:34That's the crown prince and bloodline
00:08:35Look at you
00:08:36Already acting like a monster
00:08:38Mum
00:08:40I ran forward on pure instinct
00:08:42Throwing my body to catch him
00:08:43Mum
00:08:45I'm sorry
00:08:46It's okay
00:08:47Nico
00:08:49You're okay
00:08:51Mummy's here
00:08:51The bond mark on my wrist
00:08:53Ignited for a second
00:08:54What happened?
00:08:56It was Kale
00:08:57Isla's face immediately lost color
00:09:00Kale
00:09:01Dad
00:09:03Please don't let her hurt mama anymore
00:09:05Dad
00:09:06Dad
00:09:07Mama always says she's okay
00:09:09But she's not
00:09:11And every time mama gets hurt
00:09:13She still tells us not to hate you
00:09:16Nico sniffled
00:09:17Then asked one question
00:09:18That shattered the courtyard
00:09:19Dad
00:09:20Can you choose mommy this time?
00:09:22Kale's expression darkens
00:09:25Kale
00:09:25A healer rushed over and examined my shoulder
00:09:28Your majesty
00:09:28The lady's injury
00:09:30If it had landed one inch lower
00:09:32She would have lost her arm entirely
00:09:33Kale looked at the blood
00:09:35At me
00:09:36At the children
00:09:37Thousands of miles away
00:09:39A storm swallowed the horizon
00:09:41Black warships cut through the sea
00:09:43Their banners bore the ancient crest of House Virith
00:09:46The lost fleet
00:09:47The fleet that was never supposed to return
00:09:50Inside the flagship
00:09:51A scarred hand tightened around a sword
00:09:53Then suddenly
00:09:54The bond mark on his wrist ignited
00:09:56Golden eyes snapped open
00:09:58Cold
00:09:59Terrifying
00:10:00Darius Virith
00:10:01The lost prince
00:10:02The war god of the north
00:10:04He looked down at the burning mark
00:10:06Leola
00:10:06Leola
00:10:07The fire spread
00:10:08Then another sensation hit him
00:10:10Pain
00:10:11Fear
00:10:12My princess
00:10:14There are four bond lines
00:10:16A mate
00:10:17And three heirs
00:10:19Kale
00:10:21He hurt my mate
00:10:23He made my sons cry
00:10:25And someone just made my sons cry
00:10:28Prepare the fleet
00:10:29Return to the capital
00:10:31The truth Darius has guarded for five years
00:10:34Is finally revealed
00:10:35The triplets were never his Lyara
00:10:37They were always mine
00:10:39He discarded the mother of my children
00:10:42Now I'm coming for what belongs to me
00:10:46Kale
00:10:47He attacked me
00:10:49He bit me
00:10:50She secretly dragged a sharp rose thorn across her own wrist
00:10:53A thin line of blood appeared
00:10:55Instantly
00:10:56Kale bypassed us without a glance
00:10:57And wrapped his arms around Isla
00:10:59Are you hurt?
00:11:01Not our children
00:11:02Not me
00:11:04Her
00:11:04You care about them
00:11:06You care about her
00:11:10I knew it
00:11:13Aayla
00:11:13No
00:11:14Do you remember what happened at the auction?
00:11:16I waited for you
00:11:17You promised you would choose me
00:11:20In front of everyone
00:11:21You spent almost ten million credits on her
00:11:24For months the other Omegas laughed at me
00:11:26They said I was delusional
00:11:28They said a king like you would never want someone like me
00:11:30It was me who met you first
00:11:33It was me who saved you
00:11:34The lie fell softly
00:11:35Yet firmly
00:11:36Rooting itself in Kale's heart
00:11:38Kale's body stiffened slightly
00:11:40The guilt in his eyes intensified infinitely
00:11:43He still remembered that fatal night years ago
00:11:46He was poisoned
00:11:47On the verge of madness and collapse
00:11:49Trapped in the forbidden forest
00:11:51He only had a vague
00:11:53Faint memory of a soft Omega saving his life
00:11:56No face
00:11:57No clear voice
00:11:59Only Aayla had stayed by his side after he woke up
00:12:02Claiming to be his savior
00:12:04For five long years
00:12:06He had believed this lie wholeheartedly
00:12:08He believes every word of her fake grievance
00:12:11He feels guilty for choosing me back then
00:12:13For hurting his so-called savior
00:12:15But no one knows the truth
00:12:17It was me who snuck into the deadly woods
00:12:19It was me who brewed the exclusive antidote
00:12:22With my own hands
00:12:23It was me who pulled him
00:12:25Back from the brink of death
00:12:27Aayla was never his savior
00:12:28I was
00:12:30I saved him
00:12:31I gave him a new life
00:12:33A stable kingdom
00:12:35Three royal heirs
00:12:36Yet I have spent five years bearing his coldness
00:12:39His suspicion
00:12:40His disregard
00:12:41While the real hero stands forgotten and injured
00:12:43A fake savior holds his heart and his guilt
00:12:46I know I have wronged you
00:12:48I will make it up to you
00:12:50He raised his hand
00:12:51Gently stroking Aayla's hair
00:12:53His eyes full of indulgence he had never once given me
00:12:56He completely ignored my bleeding shoulder
00:12:59Ignored the trembling children beside me
00:13:01In his eyes
00:13:02I was still just a cold, worthless breeding vessel
00:13:06Aayla buried her face deeper in his chest
00:13:08A triumphant
00:13:10Hidden smile curling at the corner of her mouth
00:13:12Unseen by everyone
00:13:14The crowd sighed softly
00:13:16All believing Aayla was the most wronged person in this kingdom
00:13:19Behind me
00:13:20Niko quietly buried his face against my shoulder
00:13:23I looked at her
00:13:24Then walked forward
00:13:27Aayla's lips curled into a smug, triumphant smirk
00:13:30She was certain I would break
00:13:32That I would cry, beg, and grovel for mercy in front of the entire court
00:13:37That I, the discarded mate
00:13:39Had no choice but to swallow every humiliation she threw at me
00:13:42I lifted my hand without hesitation
00:13:44My gaze cold and unyielding
00:13:46The sharp, crisp sound sliced through the dead silence of the courtyard
00:13:50Aayla stumbled backward
00:13:51Her delicate features twisting in pure shock
00:13:54The fake tears on her cheeks trembled and shattered
00:13:56The entire palace froze
00:13:58Every noble, every servant, every guard, all breath halted
00:14:02No one dared believe it
00:14:04The abandoned, discarded Omega had struck the king's beloved Aayla
00:14:08That one was not for your false accusation
00:14:12That was for my sons
00:14:15For every tear you made them shed
00:14:17For every fear you planted in their innocent hearts
00:14:22And that one was for me
00:14:24You feed the king lies
00:14:26You steal the truth
00:14:28You thrive on sympathy you never earned
00:14:31You think fragility is a weapon?
00:14:33You think playing victim can bury every sin you've committed?
00:14:36I was sold at auction
00:14:37I survived the Omega Zone alone
00:14:39I have endured worse than your petty schemes
00:14:41And never once begged for anyone's favor
00:14:43You want to ruin my children's reputation?
00:14:45Tear down my dignity?
00:14:46Then you pay the price yourself
00:14:47Aayla covered her cheeks
00:14:49Angry tears welling in her eyes
00:14:50And stared at me in disbelief
00:14:52Kale's golden eyes lazed with fury
00:14:53His scales sharp and glowing
00:14:55As his massive tail slammed the stone floor
00:14:57Shattering the marble beneath
00:14:59Leora!
00:15:08Your majesty
00:15:09The Black Serpent Fleet has breached the capital barrier
00:15:12They have entered the city
00:15:13Dammit!
00:15:15Only one man in the kingdom commands that fleet
00:15:17His brother, Darius Virith
00:15:19Whom he thought dead
00:15:20Rows and rows of Black Armored warriors flood the streets
00:15:23The lost Northern Black Serpent banner
00:15:25Faded for five years
00:15:26Bill is violently in the wind
00:15:29You bring an army into my capital
00:15:31State your purpose
00:15:32I have come for what belongs to me
00:15:39No one touches my people!
00:15:42He passes Kale completely
00:15:44And stands firmly in front of Leora
00:15:45Shielding her and the triplets behind his broad frame
00:15:48The entire palace holds its breath
00:15:50It's her fault!
00:15:51Leora has bewitched the prince!
00:15:53She wants to use him to overthrow you!
00:15:55She's always hated you!
00:15:58I need no one to overthrow anyone for me
00:16:00I have endured this palace alone for five years
00:16:04If I wanted revenge I would have taken it long ago
00:16:06My words cut sharp and true
00:16:08Kale stares at me
00:16:10Stunned
00:16:10That night
00:16:11Kale flips through five years of records
00:16:13Every late night with the children
00:16:14Every hidden injury
00:16:15Every cold dismissal
00:16:17All unseen by him until now
00:16:18What have I done?
00:16:23Late night
00:16:24Quiet abandoned prince's manor
00:16:25They didn't have nightmares today
00:16:28From now on they won't
00:16:29Darius walks me to the door of my private chamber
00:16:32His tall figure blocks the pale moonlight
00:16:34Casting a warm, sheltering shadow over me
00:16:37The mate bond from the blood scroll
00:16:39Still faintly lingers on my wrist
00:16:40An irreversible mark that binds me to him
00:16:42As his official mate before all royal law
00:16:44The bond is complete
00:16:46I am yours now
00:16:47Think we both know what that means
00:16:49There is no avoidance in my words
00:16:51My shoulders relax slightly
00:16:53Ready to accept whatever comes
00:16:54Leora
00:16:55I have waited years to have you by my side
00:16:57But I will never take you when you own me by scroll and duty
00:17:00You... don't you want me?
00:17:02I want you more than anything in this world
00:17:03But I want your heart first
00:17:04I can wait longer
00:17:06I will wait until you choose me freely
00:17:08His words touched me deeply
00:17:09Warm and overwhelming
00:17:11Every other male craved possession
00:17:13Only Darius respected me
00:17:15He wanted my heart
00:17:16Not obligation
00:17:18You...
00:17:18Are nothing like I expected
00:17:20I will prove it to you
00:17:21Every single day
00:17:22Take all the time you need
00:17:23My Leora
00:17:25It's getting late
00:17:26You should get some rest
00:17:27The next morning
00:17:29The triplets run straight to Darius
00:17:31The moment they see him
00:17:32They climb into his arms naturally
00:17:34Without fear
00:17:35Without hesitation
00:17:36Darius holds them skillfully
00:17:38Adjusting their clothes
00:17:39Brushing their hair
00:17:40Knowing every tiny habit
00:17:41He has been gone five years
00:17:43How does he know the young prince is so well?
00:17:46Such inappropriate behavior
00:17:47Royal children should not cling to outsiders
00:17:49Leora you teach them no dignity
00:17:51My children do not need to cling on anyone for status
00:17:53They are royal heirs
00:17:54They carry royal blood
00:17:56Their dignity is born with them
00:17:57From a distance
00:17:58Kale watches Darius
00:17:59Instinctively shield the children
00:18:01From the sun wind
00:18:01A strange
00:18:02Heavy suspicion
00:18:03Settles in his heart
00:18:04I heard
00:18:05The king was poisoned
00:18:06With a rare serpent venom
00:18:07Only one specific antidote can cure it
00:18:09That formula is extremely rare
00:18:11No ordinary omega
00:18:13Could possibly master it
00:18:14All eyes drift to Isla
00:18:17I...
00:18:18I just did what I had to do
00:18:19I don't remember the details
00:18:24Tell me again
00:18:25Exactly how did you save me in the forbidden forest
00:18:28I was...
00:18:28I mean I just happened to be passing by
00:18:30That night was so dark
00:18:31So cold
00:18:31I saw you lying on the ground
00:18:32You were barely breathing
00:18:33And then I found the antidote
00:18:34Yes the antidote
00:18:35That formula was right there in my hands
00:18:36And then I just
00:18:36I just
00:18:41Effective immediately
00:18:42This household falls under my sole jurisdiction
00:18:44All unjust restrictions placed upon Leora
00:18:46Are hereby abolished
00:18:47We...
00:18:48We are deeply sorry Lady Leora
00:18:49For everything
00:18:50Now you rely on the prince's favor
00:18:53How shameless
00:18:57She does not need my favor
00:18:58She deserves respect you will never be worthy of
00:19:04I watched over you every year
00:19:07Every quiet pain you endured
00:19:09I saw it all
00:19:10From afar
00:19:11Kale watched
00:19:12Jealousy and regret cutting through him
00:19:14He had never looked at her with such tenderness
00:19:16Yet now she was cherished by another
00:19:18Kale's investigation revealed Isla never entered the forest that night
00:19:21Only Leora did
00:19:22And Darius had watched her auction
00:19:23He saw he had punished the innocent and trusted the deceiver
00:19:26Isla discovers the investigation in panic
00:19:29She tries to burn old files
00:19:31But her hasty moves only leave more evidence
00:19:33Kale holds the half-proved truth in his hand
00:19:36When he passes me in the corridor
00:19:38He cannot meet her eyes
00:19:39For the first time
00:19:40The mighty king feels unforgivably guilty
00:19:43He is finally about to learn
00:19:44How terrible his five years of injustice have been
00:19:46Desperate
00:19:47Isla sneaked in with forbidden venom
00:19:49To hurt the children and frame me
00:19:50But as she raised her hand
00:19:52A shadow fell over
00:19:53What are you doing?
00:19:55Another scheme
00:19:56When I knew Isla intended to harm my children
00:19:59My gaze turned ice cold
00:20:01You have played victim long enough
00:20:04Today
00:20:06Your lies end
00:20:07I take out old medical records
00:20:09And witnesses proofs I have kept for years
00:20:12Kale arrives just in time
00:20:14Witnessing Isla's vicious attempt with his own eyes
00:20:16All his remaining affection for Isla shatters completely
00:20:21Seize her
00:20:22Confine her to the cold palace
00:20:25I never went into that forest
00:20:27I don't know any antidote
00:20:28Kale
00:20:29Kale I just wanted you to choose me
00:20:30I lied to you
00:20:31I lied about everything
00:20:32The one who saved my life
00:20:33The one who endured everything for me
00:20:36Was Leora
00:20:38Leora
00:20:39I know the truth now
00:20:41I know what Isla did
00:20:42I know what you sacrificed
00:20:43I know what I did to you
00:20:44Please
00:20:44Let me fix this
00:20:45Let me make it right
00:20:46No
00:20:47Start over
00:20:50Kale
00:20:51The woman standing in front of you
00:20:53Is not the woman you abandoned
00:20:54You broke her
00:20:55And she survived
00:20:57You think this is about Ayla
00:20:58It's not
00:20:59You think this is about lies
00:21:00It's not
00:21:01You lost me long before the truth came out
00:21:03When our children cried
00:21:04You chose someone else
00:21:05When I bled
00:21:05You chose someone else
00:21:06When I loved you
00:21:07You chose someone else
00:21:08And now
00:21:11You are simply living with your choice
00:21:13Leora
00:21:14No
00:21:14You don't miss me
00:21:15You miss the woman who loved you
00:21:17No matter how badly you treated her
00:21:19And she doesn't belong in your memories anymore
00:21:21The person you discarded
00:21:23Is the person I spent five years trying to protect
00:21:27The difference between us is simple
00:21:29You had her
00:21:30I valued her
00:21:32Darius offered his hand
00:21:33Not claiming
00:21:34Just offering
00:21:35I chose him
00:21:36The one who valued me when I had nothing
00:21:38Kale broke
00:21:39Leora
00:21:40My name echoed goodbye
00:21:41I chose Darius
00:21:42Chose myself
00:21:43And finally
00:21:44Someone chose me back
00:21:45There was laughter inside the Verith estate
00:21:48The triplets chased each other across the training yard
00:21:51Tiny serpent tails flicking wildly behind them
00:21:54Nico
00:21:54No biting your brothers
00:21:56I wasn't biting
00:21:58I was practicing
00:21:59They're called fangs
00:22:01Use them properly
00:22:04I'm scary now
00:22:06A low chuckle came from behind them
00:22:09Darius
00:22:09He crouched down until he was eye level with the children
00:22:13Again
00:22:14Cashin inhaled
00:22:15Golden scales slowly appeared across his arm
00:22:18Too uneven
00:22:19They disappeared
00:22:22Better
00:22:23Control first
00:22:25Power second
00:22:26Your turn
00:22:28Rowan concentrated
00:22:29His tiny tail appeared
00:22:31Then vanished
00:22:32Everyone laughed
00:22:33Only Nico refused to lose
00:22:35I can do both
00:22:37I can do both
00:22:38Hmm
00:22:39Two tiny fangs
00:22:41Little tail
00:22:42Golden eyes
00:22:43Everything appeared at once
00:22:45Then he sneezed
00:22:46The tail disappeared
00:22:48The whole courtyard burst into laughter
00:22:50I stood beneath the veranda
00:22:52Watching them
00:22:53I had forgotten what peace looked like until these days
00:22:56Only in Darius' estate
00:22:58Darius walked over
00:22:59Holding two cups of tea
00:23:01Thank you
00:23:02All of these
00:23:03They're getting stronger
00:23:05They're happy
00:23:06So are you
00:23:08We were getting closer and closer
00:23:10And just as we were about to kiss
00:23:14Split open
00:23:16A gigantic silver serpent appeared above the capital
00:23:19Its body wasn't real
00:23:20Pure magic
00:23:21Every citizen stopped walking
00:23:23Every soldier dropped to one knee
00:23:26An ancient voice echoed across the kingdom
00:23:28By order of the high council
00:23:31All members of the royal bloodlunch
00:23:34Return to the serpent sanctum
00:23:37Immediately
00:23:38The council
00:23:40Darius' smile disappeared
00:23:42The warmth in his eyes
00:23:44Gone
00:23:44Only the war prince remained
00:23:46They finally made their decision
00:23:49No
00:23:50They've run out of choices
00:23:52The serpent sanctum
00:23:54Hundreds of elders
00:23:55Ancient thrones
00:23:57The royal council
00:23:58Even Kael stood there
00:24:00The massive doors slowly opened
00:24:02Darius walked in
00:24:03Every elder stood
00:24:05Not for the king
00:24:06For him
00:24:07Your highness
00:24:08The throne has waited for you
00:24:11The serpent kingdom requests its rightful king
00:24:14Kael's face turned cold
00:24:16He knew exactly what that meant
00:24:18If Darius accepted
00:24:20Everything Kael had ruled would end today
00:24:22But the oldest elder spoke again
00:24:24His next sentence made the entire hall fall silent
00:24:27There is only
00:24:28One condition
00:24:30Bring in the Omega
00:24:33The enormous bronze doors slowly opened again
00:24:36Chains echoed through the chamber
00:24:38I walked inside
00:24:40Around my wrists
00:24:41Ancient silver shackles burned with glowing runes
00:24:44The blood shackles
00:24:45The restraints once used to transport Omega slaves
00:24:48They had locked them onto me without asking
00:24:50My hands clenched
00:24:52The runes bit into my skin
00:24:54Every step reminded me
00:24:56The council did not see me as a person
00:24:58Only property
00:25:01So
00:25:02You put chains on my mate
00:25:04The Omega
00:25:06Cannot become queen
00:25:09Purchasing records remain valid
00:25:11Five years ago
00:25:12Leora Vance was legally acquired at the Royal Black Market
00:25:15Under the first blood code
00:25:17An Omega may change masters
00:25:18But never cease to be property
00:25:20She belongs to the crown
00:25:22As for Omega
00:25:23She possesses extraordinary fertility
00:25:25Three heirs in a single birth
00:25:28Such blood cannot be wasted
00:25:30Slowly
00:25:31A crystal ball ascends
00:25:32Golden runes sprawl across its surface
00:25:34Each noble house knows full well what this signifies
00:25:37The Northern Snurpent House
00:25:3930 million royal credits
00:25:42I'll take it
00:25:4560 million
00:25:47The Wolf Dominion offers three border cities
00:25:50The Dragon Court offers a military alliance
00:25:56Five years ago
00:25:57You called this justice
00:26:00I called it survival
00:26:02Today you still hide behind the same chains
00:26:05You speak of blood
00:26:06You speak of purity
00:26:07You speak of tradition
00:26:08But none of you have spoken a single word about choice
00:26:10You fear an Omega with freedom
00:26:12Because if I am allowed to choose
00:26:13Every woman after me will begin asking why she cannot
00:26:17Enough!
00:26:18You will obey the first blood code
00:26:20Then perhaps it is your code that should be judged
00:26:35Fertility index exceptional
00:26:37Exactly like they had been five years ago
00:26:39So nothing had changed
00:26:41Back then I was lot 77 in the black market
00:26:44Today I was simply more expensive
00:26:47You finally heard her
00:26:48So now you'll hear me
00:26:51Remove the chains
00:26:52They cannot
00:26:53I wasn't asking
00:26:55I crossed half the world thinking I was returning to save her
00:26:58But it seems she never needed saving
00:27:01She only needed someone willing to stand beside her
00:27:05I advise against that
00:27:07Those shackles are older than this kingdom
00:27:09They cannot be broken
00:27:11I wasn't asking
00:27:13What did he do?
00:27:17Another rune shattered
00:27:21Impossible! Stop him!
00:27:27The first blood code is resisting
00:27:29Guards!
00:27:31No one moved
00:27:32No one dared
00:27:33Because the pressure rolling off Darius had become overwhelming
00:27:36Golden serpent scales spread slowly across his arm
00:27:39His royal blood awakened
00:27:41The blood shackles exploded into thousands of silver fragments
00:27:44No one had ever destroyed the blood shackles for over a thousand years
00:27:48Not even kings
00:27:49You auctioned her once
00:27:51You will never auction her again
00:27:53You would defy a thousand years of law?
00:27:55No
00:27:55I came auction ended the moment I returned it
00:27:58The last slave oars demands chains
00:28:01Then your laws die today
00:28:04Silver fragments glittered around my feet
00:28:06The entire royal council stared at the man standing in front of me
00:28:10The lost prince
00:28:11The only man who had ever broken the first blood code
00:28:14Nico!
00:28:15Cassian!
00:28:15Rowan!
00:28:18Mama!
00:28:20I'm okay
00:28:21Mommy is right here
00:28:23They hurt you
00:28:24They don't anymore
00:28:25They can't take you away again
00:28:27Right?
00:28:28No
00:28:29Never again
00:28:30You
00:28:31Me?
00:28:32You broke the scary chains
00:28:34Okay
00:28:34You pass
00:28:36Pass?
00:28:37Nico means you're officially in the trial period
00:28:39Mama says trust to be earned
00:28:40So we're watching you
00:28:41The chamber fell completely silent
00:28:43No one had ever spoken to the war prince like this
00:28:47If you make mama cry
00:28:49We'll fail you
00:28:51No bedtime stories
00:28:53Forever
00:28:54No bedtime stories?
00:28:59Forever
00:29:00I understand
00:29:01I accept the trial
00:29:02I've waited five years
00:29:05I can wait a little longer
00:29:08Their tiny tales flipped back and forth
00:29:10Clearly holding a silent meeting
00:29:12Finally, Cassian spoke on behalf of all three
00:29:15The trial has rules
00:29:16You protect mama
00:29:17You eat dinner with us
00:29:18You don't lie
00:29:19You don't leave without saying goodbye
00:29:20I accept
00:29:22All of it
00:29:24And you have to smile more
00:29:27Smile?
00:29:28You look scary
00:29:31But mama likes nice people
00:29:34For a heartbeat, Darius forgot where he was
00:29:37Forgot the council and the throne
00:29:39I've never seen the war prince smile
00:29:42Better
00:29:42The entire chamber unexpectedly filled with soft laughter
00:29:46Then a voice shattered everything
00:29:48Wait
00:29:51Those eyes
00:29:52Those eyes
00:29:53Why do my triplets look exactly like yours?
00:29:57And you have to smile more
00:29:59Smile?
00:30:00You look scary
00:30:03But mama likes nice people
00:30:06For a heartbeat, Darius forgot where he was
00:30:09Forgot the council and the throne
00:30:11I've never seen the war prince smile
00:30:13No one answered
00:30:15Several elders suddenly went pale
00:30:17One instinctively tightened his grip on an ancient scroll
00:30:20As if afraid a secret buried for years was about to surface
00:30:23Darius
00:30:24Darius
00:30:25You've known something all along
00:30:27Didn't you?
00:30:29Darius didn't deny it
00:30:31He simply looked at Kale
00:30:32And smiled
00:30:34Like a hunter finally watching the trap close
00:30:36I was wondering
00:30:39How much longer it would take you to notice
00:30:42What?
00:30:44Before anyone could speak
00:30:46The eldest elder slammed his staff against the floor
00:30:48No one speaks of the heirs' bloodline
00:30:52The matter is forbidden
00:30:55Forbidden?
00:30:56Why?
00:30:58What are they hiding?
00:31:00Kale stared at the elders
00:31:01Then back at Darius
00:31:04Enough
00:31:04For the first time, fear entered his eyes
00:31:07Enough
00:31:10Enough
00:31:11The entire chamber fell silent
00:31:14Every eye turned toward me
00:31:15You keep calling them heirs
00:31:17You keep calling them royal blood
00:31:20You keep calling them the future of this kingdom
00:31:23But to me
00:31:26They are just my children
00:31:28My eyes swept across every elder
00:31:30I didn't carry them to your throne
00:31:32I didn't bleed to continue your corrupted bloodline
00:31:35And I did not cease to watch my children inherit it
00:31:39We are leaving
00:31:43Guards!
00:31:45The guards moved
00:31:47But before they could take a single step
00:31:49The cold, metallic shing ripped through the silence
00:31:52Darius
00:31:53His massive shadow completely engulfed my retreat
00:31:56Shielding the children and me
00:31:58He aligned his steps with mine
00:32:00The council session was over
00:32:02It's just a start
00:32:04He looked toward the empty throne
00:32:06A throne can change hands
00:32:09An empire never changes itself without drawing blood
00:32:15Evening
00:32:16I stood outside Darius' chamber
00:32:18I wanted to say thank you
00:32:20For standing by my children
00:32:22For being the shield
00:32:23I knocked
00:32:25The door wasn't fully latched
00:32:26It clicked and swung open on its own
00:32:28Darius?
00:32:30I stepped into the room
00:32:31And the words immediately caught in my throat
00:32:33He looked predatory
00:32:35And dangerously rugged
00:32:37Lyra, are you okay?
00:32:38I came to thank you
00:32:42I fell into a wall of muscular iron
00:32:44Darius caught me
00:32:46My hands were pressed flat against his bare chest
00:32:48Darius
00:32:49You're burning
00:32:52Evening
00:32:53I stood outside Darius' chamber
00:32:55I wanted to say thank you
00:32:57For standing by my children
00:32:59For being the shield
00:33:01I knocked
00:33:02The door wasn't fully latched
00:33:04It clicked and swung open on its own
00:33:05Darius?
00:33:07I stepped into the room
00:33:08And the words immediately caught in my throat
00:33:10He looked predatory
00:33:12And dangerously rugged
00:33:14Lyra
00:33:19Leave
00:33:21Before I lose whatever sanity I have left
00:33:24What is happening to you?
00:33:25I could feel the wild
00:33:27Erratic thumping of his heart beneath my fingers
00:33:30This isn't a fever
00:33:33Five years
00:33:34For five years
00:33:35I've been suppressing my mating season with medicine
00:33:38Do you know what that does to my kind?
00:33:40And tonight
00:33:41You come for me
00:33:44My venom is boiling
00:33:46My control just broke
00:33:47Run
00:33:49While I can still let you go
00:33:51He was giving me a choice
00:33:53Even at the edge of feral madness
00:33:55He was still trying to protect me
00:33:57From himself
00:33:58But I didn't move
00:33:59I reached up
00:34:00My cool palms cupping his burning face
00:34:02I am not leaving anymore Darius
00:34:06I can help you
00:34:07Because I am your mate
00:34:09Then I kissed him
00:34:11The scales that had been growing wildly on his neck
00:34:13Smoothed out under my soothing touch
00:34:15The word hit him like a physical blow
00:34:17Mate
00:34:17For five long years
00:34:19He had been a rogue king without a queen
00:34:20Fighting his own bloodline in the dark
00:34:24Say it again
00:34:25I am yours
00:34:26And you
00:34:28Are mine
00:34:29The cold-blooded predator had finally found his son
00:34:32And he was never, ever letting go
00:34:36Morning
00:34:36I woke to birdsong
00:34:38Sunlight spilling across the windows
00:34:40Outside
00:34:41The triplets were already running through the courtyard
00:34:44Not the careful smiles they used to wear inside Kale's palace
00:34:48We'll start again
00:34:50Bigger this time
00:34:52I'll help
00:34:53I'll water everything
00:34:54I'll protect the flowers
00:34:58You three are already the best helpers
00:35:05Your highness
00:35:06The council demands another emergency session
00:35:09Half the noble houses refuse yesterday's ruling
00:35:11The northern fleet also waits your command
00:35:14I'm sorry
00:35:15I have to go
00:35:17You don't have to apologize
00:35:19You have a kingdom to deal with
00:35:21And you?
00:35:22I'm going to rebuild it
00:35:23I need medicinal herbs
00:35:25And I'd rather choose them myself
00:35:27Take the royal carriage
00:35:30If anyone gives you trouble
00:35:32They answer to me
00:35:34I can handle buying herbs
00:35:38Neither of us tried to protect the other from living
00:35:41We simply trusted each other
00:35:43Street vendors shouted
00:35:45Children chased one another between market stalls
00:35:47The scent of fresh bread mixed with crushed herbs
00:35:50For the first time in years
00:35:52I walked through the city without wearing a collar
00:35:54An elderly herbalist recognized me immediately
00:35:57Lady Leora
00:36:00Please
00:36:01I'm only here to buy herbs
00:36:03You've always loved healing
00:36:05Some things never change
00:36:08Please
00:36:09Moon leaf
00:36:10Silver root
00:36:11And winter sage
00:36:13Your favorites
00:36:14No, please
00:36:15I want my mama
00:36:18Don't look
00:36:19Why?
00:36:21They're only human
00:36:22The words struck harder than any blade
00:36:24One slave traders were dragging a little girl through the crowded street
00:36:29Get up
00:36:30You'll sell for less if you keep crying
00:36:33I'm looking for my mother
00:36:35No one helped
00:36:36People simply stepped aside
00:36:38My eyes dropped to the shackles around her wrists
00:36:41The same design
00:36:42The same chains I had worn five years ago
00:36:45For one terrifying moment
00:36:47I was back inside the black market arena
00:36:49Lot 77
00:36:50Waiting to be sold
00:36:53Please
00:36:53Please
00:36:55Don't let them take me
00:36:56Stop
00:36:59Well
00:37:01If it isn't lot 77
00:37:03I almost bid on you
00:37:05Looks like somebody else got lucky first
00:37:08But luck doesn't change the law
00:37:11Purchased legally
00:37:12Property of the crown
00:37:14So tell me
00:37:16So tell me
00:37:17Lot 77
00:37:19Are you really going to interfere with a royal auction?
00:37:24Please
00:37:25I'll be good
00:37:26I'll do anything
00:37:27Please don't let them sell me
00:37:29How much
00:37:31What?
00:37:31I asked how much
00:37:32If buying her is the only language you understand
00:37:35I'll buy her
00:37:36You
00:37:37The human omega wants to buy slaves now?
00:37:41Funny
00:37:43You finally learned how the world works
00:37:45Name your price
00:37:46No
00:37:47She's already reserved
00:37:49For today's royal auction
00:37:51Royal auction
00:37:52That means noble bidders
00:37:54She'll never leave
00:37:56Mama
00:37:56She wasn't calling me
00:37:58She was calling for anyone
00:38:00Anyone who might save her
00:38:01Enough
00:38:02You've crossed the line
00:38:04Please
00:38:06I'll be good
00:38:07I'll do anything
00:38:09Please don't let them sell me
00:38:11How much?
00:38:12What?
00:38:13I asked how much
00:38:13If buying her is the only language you understand
00:38:16I'll buy her
00:38:17You
00:38:18The human omega wants to buy slaves now?
00:38:23Funny
00:38:24You finally learned how the world works
00:38:26Name your price
00:38:27No
00:38:29She's already reserved
00:38:30For today's royal auction
00:38:31The leather burned across my palm
00:38:33Blood slowly slid between my fingers
00:38:35The little girl stared at me
00:38:37Why?
00:38:38Why are you helping me?
00:38:40Because once someone should have helped me too
00:38:43The crowd began gathering
00:38:44More and more people stopped to watch
00:38:46Yet no one stepped forward
00:38:48Everyone knew interfering with a royal auction was treason
00:38:51The traders finally recognized me
00:38:54Their expressions shifted
00:38:55Lady Lyra
00:38:57We don't want trouble
00:38:58But this girl belongs to the auction house
00:39:01If you interfere
00:39:03You'll be challenging the crown itself
00:39:05The first blood code still stands
00:39:07Royal auctions remain legal
00:39:09You of all people should understand
00:39:11Those words hit like ice
00:39:12He was right
00:39:14Darius had broken my chains
00:39:16But he hadn't broken the law
00:39:18Not yet
00:39:19I realized something terrifying
00:39:21I had escaped
00:39:22But thousands of human slaves were still waiting inside cages
00:39:26Exactly where I had once been
00:39:30The trader was yanking fiercely at her hair
00:39:33The little girl stumbled back toward him
00:39:35This time she didn't cry
00:39:37She simply looked at me with the same empty eyes
00:39:39I used to see in the arena
00:39:41Come
00:39:43Your buyers are waiting
00:39:44He turned
00:39:45Dragging her toward the far end of the city
00:39:48People instinctively stepped aside
00:39:50As though making way for a funeral procession
00:39:53I stood completely still
00:39:54Watching the little girl's tiny figure disappear into the crowd
00:40:00At the enormous black fortress towering over the marketplace
00:40:03Its iron gates slowly creaked open
00:40:05Inside rows upon rows of glowing cages
00:40:08Countless frightened girls
00:40:10And nobles are already taking their seats
00:40:12Above the entrance hung the same words
00:40:14I prayed never to see again
00:40:17The royal black market
00:40:18My fingers slowly tightened
00:40:20Six years ago
00:40:21I walked through those gates and chains
00:40:23This time
00:40:24I was walking in by choice
00:40:26The iron gates groaned open
00:40:28The smell hit me first
00:40:29Iron
00:40:30Blood
00:40:31Fear
00:40:32Nothing had changed
00:40:33People brushed past me
00:40:35Laughing
00:40:36Drinking
00:40:37Holding crystal bidding paddles
00:40:39As though this were a celebration
00:40:41Not a marketplace for lives
00:40:43Five years ago
00:40:45I had entered these gates and chains
00:40:47Today no one recognized me
00:40:49No one cared
00:40:50The auction hall stretched farther than
00:40:52Inside each cage
00:40:54A girl
00:40:55Some were children
00:40:56Some barely older than I had been
00:40:58Some quietly cried
00:41:00One girl kept repeating the same words
00:41:02My mother will come
00:41:04My mother promised
00:41:07Welcome back
00:41:11Welcome back
00:41:14The royal black market proudly presents today's premium collection
00:41:20Age
00:41:21Bloodline
00:41:22Fertility
00:41:23Compatibility
00:41:25Every word made my stomach turn
00:41:27Not names
00:41:29Only prices
00:41:30This batch is disappointing
00:41:32They're getting older
00:41:33The younger ones are kept for the evening auction
00:41:35They spoke the way people discussed weather
00:41:37Then I saw her
00:41:39The little girl from the street
00:41:40She stood alone inside a crystal cage
00:41:43Still hoping someone would come
00:41:45You came
00:41:47I knew you would
00:41:50Our next item
00:41:52Human female
00:41:5313 years old
00:41:55Excellent health
00:41:56Rare healing affinity
00:41:58Malleable
00:41:59Perfect for household service
00:42:01No previous owner
00:42:02Opening bid
00:42:04500,000 credits
00:42:06600,000
00:42:088
00:42:091,000,000
00:42:10The little girl's body shook
00:42:11She didn't understand the numbers
00:42:14She only understood that everyone was looking at her
00:42:16My nails dug into my palms
00:42:18Blood well beneath my fingertips
00:42:20The memories came rushing back
00:42:23The lights
00:42:24The shouting
00:42:25The smell of fear
00:42:26Lot 77
00:42:28Exceptional fertility
00:42:29Previously unclaimed
00:42:32I heard it all over again
00:42:34Not in the room
00:42:35Inside my head
00:42:37The auctioneer raised his hammer
00:42:381,000,000
00:42:41I don't want to go
00:42:43Please
00:42:44I'll be good
00:42:46I'll do anything
00:42:47The words echoed across the hall
00:42:49Exactly
00:42:50Exactly as mine once had
00:42:52Something inside me finally broke
00:42:54No
00:42:55My voice wasn't loud
00:42:57Every paddle stopped
00:42:58Every noble turned
00:43:00The auctioneer frowned
00:43:01Excuse me
00:43:02I slowly stepped onto the auction platform
00:43:05Between the bidders and the cage
00:43:07My eyes swept across every face in the room
00:43:09I've heard enough
00:43:10And who exactly are you
00:43:13To interrupt a royal auction?
00:43:15My name
00:43:16Lyra Vance
00:43:20Lock 77
00:43:21She came back!
00:43:22Why is she here?
00:43:24The auctioneer's smile slowly disappeared
00:43:26He looked toward the upper balcony
00:43:28Where several hooded figures had been watching long before I arrived
00:43:31One of them quietly lowered his hood
00:43:34An elder of the royal council
00:43:36He smiled
00:43:36As if he had been expecting me
00:43:38Welcome home, Lady Lyra
00:43:41We've been waiting for you
00:43:43Lady Lyra
00:43:44I almost didn't recognize you
00:43:47You see a victim
00:43:48I see an investment
00:43:49She's a child
00:43:51So was I
00:43:52And yet?
00:43:53You became the mother of three royal heirs
00:43:55That sounds like an excellent return on investment
00:44:02Do you know why this market has survived for nearly a thousand years?
00:44:08Wars are expensive
00:44:09Crowns are expensive
00:44:11This market funds all three
00:44:16Taxes
00:44:16Military budgets
00:44:18Royal treasuries
00:44:19Trade routes
00:44:20This wasn't corruption
00:44:21It was the foundation of the kingdom
00:44:24Every line ended the same way
00:44:27Omega's auction revenue
00:44:28Now you understand
00:44:30If this market disappears
00:44:33So does the throne
00:44:34The generals
00:44:35The nobles
00:44:37Not one of them looked surprised
00:44:39They had always known
00:44:41Only I hadn't
00:44:45You believe Prince Darius can save everyone
00:44:48He cannot
00:44:49If he abolishes the auctions
00:44:51The treasury collapses
00:44:53The army starves
00:44:56The borders fall
00:44:57Civil war begins
00:44:59So tell me, Lady Lyra
00:45:01What will you save first?
00:45:03One little girl?
00:45:04Or an entire kingdom?
00:45:05I realized something terrifying
00:45:07He wasn't threatening me
00:45:08He was describing reality
00:45:09Miss
00:45:10Are they going to sell me now?
00:45:13No
00:45:13I won't let them
00:45:16Wonderful
00:45:20Resume the auction
00:45:22One million
00:45:23One point five
00:45:25Two million
00:45:30The little girl was teleported from her cage to the auctioneer
00:45:33She curled up and trembled
00:45:39You may not approach the merchandise
00:45:42Merchandise?
00:45:43The word echoed through my head
00:45:44In the darkest corner of the auction house
00:45:47The small boy no older than Rowan gripped the bars with both hands
00:45:50His eyes were silver
00:45:51His wrists bled beneath heavy iron shackles
00:45:55My fingers slowly tightened
00:45:57I raised my hand
00:45:58Ten million
00:45:59What did she say?
00:46:01Ten million
00:46:01Ten million
00:46:02I am buying both children
00:46:04The carriage finally stopped before the palace gates
00:46:07Three familiar voices immediately rang out
00:46:12Three tiny shadows came rushing toward me at terrifying speed
00:46:15And suddenly stopped
00:46:17Mama
00:46:19Who's that?
00:46:21All three boys froze
00:46:22A very dangerous silence
00:46:26Mama
00:46:27We left you alone for one afternoon
00:46:29And you adopted two more children?
00:46:33Cashin slowly covered his little chest
00:46:36Mother
00:46:38I would like to respectfully ask
00:46:41Are we no longer enough?
00:46:43No
00:46:43No wonder Uncle Darius is so nice to us
00:46:45It was all part of his evil plan
00:46:48What?
00:46:49First he stole Mama's heart
00:46:50Now he's stealing our inheritance
00:46:55Emergency family meeting
00:46:57Right now
00:47:00We have reached a decision
00:47:03Cashin slowly covered his little chest
00:47:05Mother
00:47:06Mother
00:47:08I would like to respectfully ask
00:47:10Are we no longer enough?
00:47:12No
00:47:13No wonder Uncle Darius is so nice to us
00:47:15It was all part of his evil plan
00:47:17What?
00:47:18First he stole Mama's heart
00:47:20Now he's stealing our inheritance
00:47:25Emergency family meeting
00:47:26Right now
00:47:30We have reached a decision
00:47:32And?
00:47:33If Mama likes them
00:47:35We'll share
00:47:38But only a little
00:47:39And Mama still has to kiss us first
00:47:42My heart softened instantly
00:47:44Then a tiny hand quietly tugged at my sleeve
00:47:47Can I stay?
00:47:50I don't eat much
00:47:51I can sleep on the floor
00:47:52You don't have to buy me clothes
00:47:54I'll work very hard
00:47:55I'll do anything
00:47:57He carefully looked at me
00:47:59Almost afraid of hearing my answer
00:48:01No!
00:48:02We can't stay!
00:48:05Why not?
00:48:06I know how this works
00:48:07I've seen it before
00:48:09My heart suddenly ached
00:48:11She couldn't have been older than 13
00:48:13But her eyes looked much older than they should
00:48:17Children like us aren't adopted
00:48:20We're bought
00:48:22When masters get tired of us
00:48:25They sell us again
00:48:27So it's okay
00:48:28We'll work very hard
00:48:29I can cook
00:48:30I can clean
00:48:31I know how to wash clothes
00:48:32I don't get sick very often
00:48:33And he can work too
00:48:34He learns very quickly
00:48:37You already have three children
00:48:39You don't need us
00:48:41Then she quietly looked toward the triplets
00:48:43They're very lucky
00:48:45You're wrong
00:48:46Mama doesn't buy children
00:48:48Mama collects children
00:48:51Nico
00:48:52That somehow sounds worse
00:48:54It does not
00:48:56I would actually like to appeal my trial conditions
00:48:59Darius
00:48:59He had returned
00:49:01For a moment
00:49:02I almost forgot
00:49:03He wasn't only my mate
00:49:05The defendant has arrived
00:49:10The what?
00:49:12The defendant
00:49:13You are currently under family investigation
00:49:17Darius was silent
00:49:18I see
00:49:20How was work today?
00:49:22Several royal generals immediately choked beside him
00:49:24Productive
00:49:25Only three elders fainted
00:49:26That's better than yesterday
00:49:29Yesterday
00:49:31That's better than yesterday
00:49:34Yesterday
00:49:35Yesterday Mama made six merchants cry
00:49:38Oh?
00:49:40Twice
00:49:42Wait!
00:49:43You're late
00:49:45Late?
00:49:46The trial rules
00:49:48You don't leave without saying goodbye
00:49:51And
00:49:52You eat dinner with us
00:49:55You are exactly 47 minutes late
00:49:59You've been timing me?
00:50:01Obviously
00:50:02Zero
00:50:03Out of ten
00:50:04The war prince
00:50:05Feared across seven kingdoms
00:50:07Had never lost a battle in his life
00:50:09And was currently failing an interview conducted by children
00:50:15Will you fail too?
00:50:18What?
00:50:19Masters always leave eventually
00:50:21So
00:50:22Will you leave too?
00:50:23I don't think I've asked you something important yet
00:50:26What?
00:50:27Your name
00:50:27Noah
00:50:29My name is Noah
00:50:30Noah
00:50:31It's a good name
00:50:32Darius slowly removed the royal serpent ring from his finger
00:50:36Everyone knew what that ring represented
00:50:38You may keep it
00:50:39The war prince's promise
00:50:43What if I lose it?
00:50:44Then I'll find it
00:50:47What if I leave?
00:50:48Then I'll come find you too
00:50:49My family doesn't get left behind
00:50:53Ever
00:50:54And me
00:50:56I mean
00:50:57You don't have to
00:50:58Girls are more expensive to keep alive anyway
00:51:01No one knew what kind of life could make a 13 years old girl say such words so naturally
00:51:06That's impossible
00:51:07Girls are awesome
00:51:08Especially mama
00:51:10And what is your name?
00:51:12Iris
00:51:13Iris
00:51:14And one more thing
00:51:16No child in this family is expensive to keep alive
00:51:19You're priceless
00:51:22I'm first
00:51:23No you're not
00:51:29The royal palace had never been this rosy before
00:51:33Five children running through the courtyard was apparently enough to terrify every servant in the kingdom
00:51:37Nico
00:51:38You can't put three desserts on your plate
00:51:40Why not?
00:51:41Because that's stealing
00:51:42It's not stealing if we're family
00:51:43That doesn't make it not stealing
00:51:45That somehow sounds worse
00:51:49Five years ago
00:51:50No one could have imagined such a scene
00:51:53The coldest palace in the kingdom
00:51:57Had somehow become the loudest
00:52:01Mama!
00:52:04Noah won't sit down
00:52:05I shouldn't eat here
00:52:07Why?
00:52:09Masters eat first
00:52:10Slaves eat what's left
00:52:11That's how it's supposed to be
00:52:12Girls aren't allowed to sit at noble tables either
00:52:14We're supposed to eat in the servants' quarters
00:52:17Otherwise we'll get beaten up
00:52:22Then your teachers were idiots
00:52:25In this palace
00:52:28Children eat first
00:52:31But we were not royal children
00:52:33You are equal
00:52:35Wait what are we then?
00:52:39Chaotic
00:52:41The entire dining hall burst into laughter
00:52:46Noah carefully sat down for the very first time
00:52:49Iris' fingers trembled slightly around her spoon
00:52:54There are more children like us
00:52:56What do you mean?
00:52:58At the auction house
00:52:59There were hundreds of us
00:53:01Some are younger than Noah
00:53:02Some don't survive the winter
00:53:04Sometimes they disappear in the middle of the night
00:53:07And nobody comes for them
00:53:09That night
00:53:10I couldn't sleep
00:53:11Five years ago
00:53:12Someone bought me out of the auction house
00:53:14Today I brought two children home
00:53:16But somehow
00:53:16It still didn't feel like enough
00:53:18Ten million
00:53:20I am buying both children
00:53:25Darius hugged me from behind
00:53:27What are you thinking about?
00:53:29I'm wondering how many children are still waiting for someone to find them
00:53:35Then we'll find them
00:53:37All of them?
00:53:39All of them
00:53:40Besides
00:53:42I happen to own half the kingdom
00:53:44Only half?
00:53:45The other half is still under negotiation
00:53:47If you wish to build a garden
00:53:50Then I'll build you a kingdom large enough to protect it
00:53:56Darius
00:53:57Do you know why I went to the auction house five years ago?
00:54:01I thought
00:54:02You thought I wanted to buy an Omega
00:54:06Actually I went there to destroy it
00:54:07The Royal Black Market has existed for over a thousand years
00:54:11The Council profits from selling Omegas
00:54:14They expected me to choose one
00:54:16I intended to destroy the entire auction before the bidding ever began
00:54:21Then I saw you
00:54:26Darius
00:54:27Do you know why I went to the auction house five years ago?
00:54:32I thought
00:54:33You thought I wanted to buy an Omega
00:54:36Actually I went there to destroy it
00:54:38Could only stare at him
00:54:40You weren't crying
00:54:41You weren't begging
00:54:44You looked at everyone in that room as though you would rather die than surrender
00:54:47He smiled, remembering that day
00:54:50Do you know what I thought when I saw you?
00:54:52What?
00:54:53That you looked angry
00:54:55Angry?
00:54:56Like a beautiful little beast that wanted to bite everyone in the room
00:55:01And I thought
00:55:02If no one comes for her today
00:55:04Then I'll take her home
00:55:07So no
00:55:08I never wanted to buy an Omega
00:55:09I only wanted a Queen
00:55:13Five years ago
00:55:14I thought no one had came for me
00:55:15The buyers only came for my body
00:55:17I was wrong
00:55:19Someone had
00:55:20He was simply five years too late
00:55:24He lowered his head slightly
00:55:26His forehead gently resting against mine
00:55:29Leora
00:55:29I spent years thinking I wanted to save you
00:55:32Then I came home and realized
00:55:35You never needed saving
00:55:37The woman I love survived everything this kingdom threw at her
00:55:41She protected our children
00:55:42She protected herself
00:55:44And now
00:55:45She's trying to protect thousands more
00:55:47It wasn't me who saved you, LaRoya
00:55:51You saved me too
00:55:52What do you mean?
00:55:54The mighty war god looked almost vulnerable
00:55:56Five years
00:55:57I lived only for revenge
00:56:00The kingdom
00:56:01The throne
00:56:04The council
00:56:07That was all I had left
00:56:09But somehow
00:56:11You gave me something I never thought I would have
00:56:14What?
00:56:16A home
00:56:17For a moment
00:56:17I couldn't speak
00:56:19So perhaps we're both a little greedy
00:56:20You wish to save every lost child in this kingdom
00:56:23And I
00:56:24His golden eyes reflected nothing but me
00:56:26I only wish to spend the rest of my life
00:56:29Protecting the woman who wishes to save them
00:56:32If I wish to build a garden
00:56:34I'll become the walls that protect it
00:56:36And if one day this kingdom stands against you
00:56:39Then let them stand against their king first
00:56:43Under the moonlight
00:56:44I finally understood
00:56:45Five years ago
00:56:47I thought I had survived because I was lucky
00:56:49Tonight
00:56:50I realized something else
00:56:51Perhaps
00:56:52I had simply been loved for much longer than I ever knew
00:56:56The next morning
00:56:58I woke up earlier than usual
00:57:00When I arrived at the dining hall
00:57:02I realized I was the last person to wake up
00:57:04Five children had already occupied the entire table
00:57:07Cashin is holding Nico back from stealing the desserts
00:57:10Rowan was helping Iris braid flowers into her hair
00:57:13And Darius was sitting quietly beside them
00:57:15Wearing an apron
00:57:18What are you wearing?
00:57:21The children said I should contribute to the family
00:57:24He's currently earning affection points
00:57:27Trial points
00:57:29Same thing
00:57:30No
00:57:30Yes
00:57:31Silence
00:57:32Several royal generals standing outside the palace looked ready to faint
00:57:36The war prince who terrified Seven Kingdoms was currently making pancakes
00:57:40History had truly become absurd
00:57:44You really don't need to do all this
00:57:46Why not?
00:57:48You're busy
00:57:48And?
00:57:50Leora
00:57:51You once asked me what I wanted
00:57:54When?
00:57:55When I returned home
00:57:56And?
00:57:58You
00:58:00What?
00:58:01I said I wanted you
00:58:05Inappropriate!
00:58:06I can still hear!
00:58:08That's even worse!
00:58:09I want to have dinner with you
00:58:10I want to watch our children grow up
00:58:13I want to grow old beside you
00:58:15And someday
00:58:17I would like the entire kingdom to call you their queen
00:58:22Lady Leora
00:58:23The workers have arrived
00:58:25The workers
00:58:27The old southern courtyard
00:58:28The one your highness ordered cleared
00:58:29The renovation team is waiting
00:58:31The garden!
00:58:33Mama's garden!
00:58:34We're helping!
00:58:36Noah almost burnt down a flower yesterday
00:58:38I did not
00:58:39You absolutely did
00:58:41I only touched it
00:58:42With fire
00:58:44Details!
00:58:46Darius quietly rose beside me
00:58:48Shall we?
00:58:49Let's go
00:58:50Half an hour later
00:58:52The abandoned southern courtyard was unrecognizable
00:58:55Gardeners planted seedlings
00:58:57Workers carried stone
00:58:59Old walls were being rebuilt
00:59:02What will you call it?
00:59:04What will you call it?
00:59:05The workers
00:59:06The flowers
00:59:07The children
00:59:08The sunlight
00:59:10Omega garden
00:59:11Omega garden
00:59:12A place for omega women
00:59:13A shelter
00:59:15A place where nobody will ever be sold again
00:59:18A gardener suddenly wiped his eyes
00:59:20Another worker lowered his head
00:59:22Because everyone knew someone
00:59:24A daughter
00:59:25A sister
00:59:26A mother
00:59:27Someone who had disappeared
00:59:29Someone who had been sold
00:59:30The garden suddenly felt bigger than flowers
00:59:33Lady Leora
00:59:34A voice suddenly called out
00:59:36Lady Leora
00:59:38Can I help you?
00:59:39The old man hesitated
00:59:41Then carefully looked around
00:59:42As if afraid someone might hear
00:59:45Then slipped something into my hand
00:59:47A small folded note
00:59:48So many years
00:59:50I thought someone should know
00:59:54Only one sentence was written inside
00:59:56Lot 77 files still exist
00:59:59Five years
01:00:00For five years I had believed every record from that auction was gone
01:00:04But if the files still existed
01:00:05Then so did the truth
01:00:07About the auction
01:00:08About the council
01:00:09About the children
01:00:11I looked up immediately
01:00:12But the old librarian was already walking away
01:00:15Disappearing into the crowd
01:00:17As if he had never been there
01:00:19Leora
01:00:20My heartbeat accelerated
01:00:22This wasn't a gift
01:00:24It was a warning
01:00:25I handed him the note
01:00:27Burn it
01:00:28What?
01:00:30Burn it
01:00:32Whoever sent this wants you to follow it
01:00:34Maybe he was right
01:00:36Maybe it was a trap
01:00:38But if those files truly existed
01:00:40Then somewhere inside them was the answer
01:00:42Why me?
01:00:43Why lot 77?
01:00:45Why were the records erased?
01:00:47And why were the elders so terrified
01:00:49Whenever my children were mentioned?
01:00:51I have to know
01:00:52Darius stared at me
01:00:53Then sighed
01:00:54Because he already knew
01:00:56Once I made up my mind
01:00:58Nothing could stop me
01:00:59Then I'm coming with you
01:01:02Midnight
01:01:02The Royal Archive
01:01:04The oldest building in the capital
01:01:06Ancient records stretched endlessly into darkness
01:01:09The old librarian was waiting
01:01:11You came
01:01:12I don't have much time
01:01:15Someone has been watching me
01:01:16Show us the files
01:01:18The old man nodded
01:01:20Then led us deep into the archive
01:01:22Far below the royal history wing
01:01:24Down
01:01:24And down
01:01:26Until we reached a hidden chamber
01:01:28The librarian unlocked an iron vault
01:01:30Inside sat a single crystal file
01:01:33Lot 77
01:01:34The first page appeared
01:01:36Purchase record
01:01:37My name
01:01:38My auction number
01:01:39My sale price
01:01:41Nothing unusual
01:01:42Then I turned the next page
01:01:44Pure blood breeding program
01:01:47Darius snatched the file
01:01:49His face instantly changed
01:01:51Then another page
01:01:52Dozens of names
01:01:54Hundreds
01:01:54Omega women
01:01:56Auction numbers
01:01:57Birth records
01:01:59Children
01:01:59Everything
01:02:01The auction had never been about slavery
01:02:03It had been about breeding
01:02:05The grand elder created
01:02:07He selected women
01:02:09He selected bloodlines
01:02:12He sold them
01:02:13He bred them
01:02:15For generations
01:02:16A single click echoed somewhere above us
01:02:19For the first time
01:02:20I saw fear
01:02:21The entire archive exploded
01:02:24Fire erupted through the ceiling
01:02:26Stone collapsed
01:02:27The chamber disappeared beneath flames
01:02:30I felt Darius throw himself toward me
01:02:32His arms wrapped around me
01:02:34Protecting me
01:02:35Everything went dark
01:02:37The royal archive collapsed
01:02:39An entire tower reduced to fire
01:02:41Darius
01:02:42Covered in blood
01:02:44Alone
01:02:44Your highness
01:02:49Where is Lady Leora?
01:02:52Darkness
01:02:52Pain
01:02:53Then I opened my eyes
01:02:55Good
01:02:56You're awake
01:02:57The man whose shadow
01:02:59Stretched across every nightmare
01:03:00In this kingdom
01:03:01The man who built the auctions
01:03:02The man who built the chains
01:03:04For the first time in my life
01:03:06I was looking directly
01:03:07At the architect of my suffering
01:03:09Lot 77
01:03:10You've exceeded my expectations
01:03:12Why me?
01:03:13He rose from his chair
01:03:15Walking toward a massive wall
01:03:16Covered with portraits
01:03:17Hundreds of women
01:03:19Hundreds of children
01:03:21Generations
01:03:21The entire history
01:03:23Of the kingdom
01:03:23Then he stopped
01:03:25Before one portrait
01:03:26You think you were sold
01:03:27You think you were abandoned
01:03:29You think your story is unique
01:03:32No child
01:03:34You were selected
01:03:35What are you talking about?
01:03:37The kingdom is dying
01:03:38The pure bloodlines are disappearing
01:03:41The royal houses are weak
01:03:43So I saved them
01:03:45You trafficked women
01:03:47I preserved civilization
01:03:49I secured the future
01:03:51For a moment I simply stared at him
01:03:53Then I laughed
01:03:54You know what's funny
01:03:55You spent centuries controlling women
01:03:58You built laws
01:03:59You built chains
01:04:00You built auctions
01:04:01You built an entire kingdom
01:04:03Around ownership
01:04:04And yet
01:04:06You still couldn't make
01:04:07A single woman love you
01:04:09The royal archives still burned
01:04:11Darius stood before the ruins
01:04:13We found something
01:04:16The explosion wasn't meant to kill Lady Leora
01:04:19It was meant to separate her from you
01:04:20Inside the grand elders chamber
01:04:23A massive curtain slowly opened
01:04:25My breath stopped
01:04:27Rows
01:04:27And rows
01:04:29And rows
01:04:30Of omega women
01:04:31Sleeping inside crystal chambers
01:04:33Some looked decades old
01:04:35Some looked younger than me
01:04:37Some were children
01:04:38All marked
01:04:39All numbered
01:04:40What is this?
01:04:43Pride
01:04:46The kingdom's greatest secret
01:04:51You kept them here
01:04:54I preserved them
01:04:57Their people
01:04:58Their assets
01:05:00His answer came instantly
01:05:02As though humanity itself
01:05:03Were an inconvenience
01:05:04He was evil because he genuinely believed
01:05:06People could be owned
01:05:07The grand elder opened another door
01:05:10Cold air rushed outward
01:05:12I followed his gaze
01:05:13And froze
01:05:19Rows of nobles
01:05:20Kings
01:05:21Ambassadors
01:05:22Representatives from neighboring kingdoms
01:05:24All seated around a massive circular chamber
01:05:26At the center of the room was an auction platform
01:05:29Almost like the one from five years ago
01:05:34Symmetry
01:05:36What are you doing?
01:05:38Finishing the transaction
01:05:39The explosion
01:05:40The archive
01:05:42The kidnapping
01:05:43Everything
01:05:44Not to silence me
01:05:46To display me
01:05:47People of the serpent kingdom
01:05:49Five years ago
01:05:51We offered the greatest omega in history
01:05:56Today
01:05:57We auction her once more
01:06:01Touch her
01:06:02And I'll end this kingdom tonight
01:06:09Right on time
01:06:10Darius's golden eyes
01:06:11Locked onto me
01:06:12Only me
01:06:13The chains around my wrists
01:06:14The auction platform beneath my feet
01:06:16For a moment
01:06:17The entire world disappeared
01:06:19Only the two of us remained
01:06:20Lyra
01:06:23I'm alright
01:06:24You still think this is about her
01:06:26The kingdom is
01:06:26The bloodlines are watching
01:06:27The future is watching
01:06:29You would destroy centuries of lore
01:06:31For one human omega?
01:06:33You can destroy chains
01:06:36You can burn records
01:06:38But history remains
01:06:40You will always be
01:06:43Lot 77
01:06:44The chamber fell silent
01:06:46Waiting
01:06:47Watching
01:06:48Judging
01:06:48Five years ago
01:06:49I was sold here
01:06:50Today
01:06:51I stepped forward
01:06:52Then slowly knelt
01:06:53I placed my hand against the stone
01:06:55No!
01:06:58Lot 77 died five years ago
01:07:02My name is Lyra
01:07:06Lady Lyra saved my daughter
01:07:08She saved my sister
01:07:09She saved my wife
01:07:12Then another
01:07:13And another
01:07:14Omega women rose from their seats
01:07:17Former slaves stepped forward
01:07:19Children stood beside them
01:07:21The people the kingdom had forgotten
01:07:23Suddenly
01:07:24The grand elder was no longer surrounded by nobles
01:07:27He was surrounded by witnesses
01:07:31The crystal file Darius carried was thrown onto the auction platform
01:07:35The pages scattered
01:07:36Purchase records
01:07:37Slave contracts
01:07:38Bloodline programs
01:07:39Every secret
01:07:40Every crime
01:07:41Every victim
01:07:42Bulls!
01:07:44You think this changes anything?
01:07:47The first blood code still exists
01:07:50The law remains
01:07:52And as long as the law remains
01:07:55You belong to me
01:08:04You are wrong
01:08:05Toward the Omega women
01:08:06Toward the children
01:08:07Toward the people who had survived
01:08:09When I was sold
01:08:11I thought freedom meant escaping
01:08:13When I became a mother
01:08:14I thought freedom meant protecting my children
01:08:18When I met Darius
01:08:20I thought freedom meant finally being loved
01:08:23But freedom was never about me
01:08:25It was about all of us
01:08:28People stepped forward
01:08:30One by one
01:08:31Hundreds
01:08:32Thousands
01:08:32No titles
01:08:33No ranks
01:08:34No bloodlines
01:08:35Just people
01:08:36No!
01:08:38No!
01:08:39You need the system!
01:08:41You need order!
01:08:43You need me!
01:08:44No
01:08:44We needed courage
01:08:53Silence
01:08:54Then
01:08:55The kingdom erupted
01:08:56The grand elder collapsed to his knees
01:08:58Mama!
01:09:01We won!
01:09:02They can't sell anyone anymore!
01:09:05Then Nico suddenly looked toward Darius
01:09:07The three boys exchanged glances
01:09:10The trial is complete
01:09:12And?
01:09:15Dad!
01:09:17Darius froze
01:09:18The undefeated commander
01:09:19Completely speechless
01:09:21For the first time in years
01:09:22His eyes turned red
01:09:23Several weeks later
01:09:26You were always Queen Leora
01:09:28I stood before the people
01:09:29Wearing a crown
01:09:31Darius knelt before me
01:09:32He gently lifted the crown
01:09:34He placed the crown upon my head
01:09:38Two years later
01:09:39Omega Garden had become Omega Gardens
01:09:42Children laughed where auction houses once stood
01:09:45Schools replaced slave markets
01:09:47Families replaced contracts
01:09:49Hope replaced fear
01:09:50I walked through a field of white flowers
01:09:53Six children ran ahead of me
01:09:55Darius followed behind
01:09:57I looked toward the horizon
01:09:59Toward a future that once seemed impossible
01:10:01Then a little girl ran past me
01:10:03Laughing
01:10:04Free
01:10:05No collar
01:10:06No chains
01:10:07And for the first time in generations
01:10:09No child in the serpent kingdom
01:10:11Would ever be a number again
01:10:12Door
