00:00:02Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:00:06She drew every eyes in the room.
00:00:10Surprise! I just had to meet your strays.
00:00:13I turned to watch the wolves. All three of them only
00:00:16watched her. I had lived this a hundred times. Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:00:20She is bright and easy to love. Next to her, I am plain
00:00:24and quiet. So I turned away and said nothing.
00:00:27Your place is nothing like the family mansion. Is there even
00:00:31room for them here? They managed fine. Then I saw it
00:00:35happen. Ace never cared about anything. Now he stared at her. Deuce
00:00:39gave her his warmest smile. Even hot-tempered tray washed
00:00:43her, ears twitching. Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:00:47Here. The sweetest part is yours.
00:00:51Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:00:55You three are so sweet. They had never once
00:00:58done that for me.
00:00:59She sat there sweet and oblivious
00:01:02to it all. That was the moment I knew.
00:01:05My things were about
00:01:06to become hers once more.
00:01:08After she left, everything changed. The soft nights
00:01:11were over. I finally understood what they were
00:01:13doing. One look at Vivian had been
00:01:15enough. They wanted her and I was in the way.
00:01:18So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:01:20Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:01:21But I heard them first. And I had a plan
00:01:23of my own. Hello.
00:01:26My sister Vivian always wants more in bed.
00:01:29But her partner is a snake.
00:01:32He stays cold. My partners are three wolves.
00:01:36Every night they wear me down to nothing.
00:01:38But none of them wants me.
00:01:40The one they want is Vivian.
00:01:42So I offered her a swap.
00:01:44My wolves had me all night.
00:01:46Then I blacked out.
00:01:49But I came to before they noticed.
00:01:51Voices drifted in from the living room.
00:01:54That soft little body.
00:01:56No stamina at all.
00:01:58She really thinks she can keep all three of us?
00:02:01Give it time.
00:02:02Once she breaks, she'll hand us to her sister.
00:02:05She can barely breathe.
00:02:07A few more nights, she's done.
00:02:08An hour ago, I had cried in their arms.
00:02:11They called that week.
00:02:13I was done crying.
00:02:16I reached for my phone and called Vivian.
00:02:19What's wrong?
00:02:20You said you were pent up, right?
00:02:22Take all three wolves.
00:02:23Give me your snake.
00:02:24Wait, really?
00:02:25They're okay with it?
00:02:26They like you.
00:02:27A lot.
00:02:27She didn't argue.
00:02:29Everyone likes her more.
00:02:30It has always been true.
00:02:32Fine.
00:02:33My place is bigger anyway.
00:02:34But my snake is cold.
00:02:35He won't touch you.
00:02:36Good.
00:02:36I'm too wrecked to want more.
00:02:37He can just handle the chores.
00:02:38I'll come this afternoon.
00:02:40The door opened the second she hung up.
00:02:43Ace stood there, his eyes heavy and half closed.
00:02:46He reached for my blanket.
00:02:48Wait.
00:02:49Not done resting, Master?
00:02:52We're done.
00:02:53Vivian takes you this afternoon.
00:02:54He went still.
00:02:56At the door, Deuce and Trey froze too.
00:02:58Which two of us?
00:02:59They thought I was keeping one.
00:03:01All three of you.
00:03:06Three months ago, none of this had happened.
00:03:09It started on a cold, rainy night.
00:03:11Three wolves lay bleeding on the wet concrete.
00:03:14I almost walked right past them.
00:03:16Then one weak tail curled around my ankle.
00:03:20I couldn't leave them there.
00:03:22So I carried all three of them home.
00:03:27They healed fast under my care.
00:03:31Then their growth phase hit.
00:03:33One by one, they shifted into men.
00:03:46I called the shifter shelter to give them up.
00:03:49They've imprinted on you.
00:03:50Abandoning them now would traumatize them.
00:03:56Three pairs of eyes watched me and waited.
00:03:59I didn't have the heart.
00:04:00So I kept them.
00:04:03I named them Ace, Deuce, and Trey, from oldest to youngest.
00:04:12Back then, they adored me.
00:04:14They trailed me from room to room.
00:04:17Their hands were always on me.
00:04:28Then my sister called with the family's orders.
00:04:30When are you coming home to marry him?
00:04:34My family found me a husband for the money.
00:04:38He was old and ugly.
00:04:42I refused him.
00:04:45So they cut off my income.
00:04:48They would never force Vivian to marry him.
00:04:52All the pressure fell on me instead.
00:04:56That guy buried three wives and he's ugly.
00:05:01But his family is rich.
00:05:04Deuce pulled me close and kissed my hair.
00:05:07You sound upset.
00:05:08Just hang up on her.
00:05:11Vivian caught his voice through the phone.
00:05:13Who was that?
00:05:14His voice is gorgeous.
00:05:16Just three strays I took in.
00:05:17Strays?
00:05:19I have to see them.
00:05:20I'm coming tomorrow.
00:05:24I should have said no.
00:05:27The next day she walked through my door.
00:05:30All three wolves turned to look at her.
00:05:32And not one of them looked away.
00:05:33I had seen that look before.
00:05:35It had never once been aimed at me.
00:05:41Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:05:45She drew every eyes in the room.
00:05:49Surprise!
00:05:50I just had to meet your strays.
00:05:52I turned to watch the wolves.
00:05:54All three of them only watched her.
00:05:55I had lived this a hundred times.
00:05:57Everyone always wants Vivian.

00:06:01Next to her, I am plain and quiet.

00:07:00But I heard them first.
00:07:01And I had a plan of my own.
00:07:03Hello.
00:07:05By afternoon, the apartment had gone dead quiet.
00:07:09Then someone knocked.
00:07:11Vivian was here.
00:07:13Ace laying on the wall and stared me down.
00:07:16You're really handing all three of us to her?
00:07:20I nodded.
00:07:22You won't even keep one of us?
00:07:25Which one of you wants to stay with me?
00:07:27The room went still.
00:07:29No one said a word.
00:07:30That was my answer.
00:07:32Trey rolled his eyes and went to the door.
00:07:35Drop the wounded act, all of you.
00:07:38He opened it.
00:07:41Vivian beamed at them.
00:07:43Hi boys.
00:07:45My sister told you, right?
00:07:47You're all mine now.
00:07:48Trey leaned right into her.
00:07:50Hello, my new master.
00:07:54Don't pack a thing.
00:07:55I'll buy you everything at the mansion.
00:07:57Ace gave a lazy hum.
00:08:00Deuce glanced at her, then at me.
00:08:02I kept my face blank.
00:08:04Relax.
00:08:05I'll treat them better than you ever could.
00:08:07Vivian came over and patted my arm.
00:08:09Have your fun, then come home and marry him.
00:08:11Marry? What marriage?
00:08:13Vivian didn't explain.
00:08:14She smiled at me, soft and pitiful.
00:08:17Why not keep one?
00:08:18She looks so sad.
00:08:19Not one of them moved toward me.
00:08:21Between us, I am never the one chosen.
00:08:23We both made peace with that long ago.
00:08:25Then I lifted my chin.
00:08:26Where is he?
00:08:27Vivian paused, then called toward the hall.
00:08:29Come inside.
00:08:31Heavy footsteps crossed the floor.
00:08:33A tall man stepped into the light.
00:08:35He stood tall, his expression cold.
00:08:37Then his dark eyes locked onto mine.
00:08:41I held his cold stare and made myself speak.
00:08:44Hello.
00:08:46He looked down at me without a word.
00:08:48His gaze was heavy, dark, and reptile cold.
00:08:51He did not answer me at all.
00:08:54Goosebumps spread down both my arms.
00:08:56That's just how he is.
00:08:57Can't stand him, I'll take him back.
00:08:59Wait, who is this guy?
00:09:02The driver is waiting downstairs.
00:09:04Let's go.
00:09:05She didn't explain, and I couldn't either.
00:09:08The three wolves went quiet and followed her out.
00:09:11Just like that, they were gone.
00:09:14The snake stayed behind without a word.
00:09:17I reached out to close the door.
00:09:19Deuce turned and looked back at me.
00:09:21His eyes gave nothing away.
00:09:23Then the man beside me changed.
00:09:25His dark pupils narrowed into cold slits.
00:09:27A slick tail shot around my waist.
00:09:29A strange, heavy scent burst through the room.
00:09:32It filled my lungs and made me dizzy.
00:09:34I shoved at his chest, but he didn't move.
00:09:36You...
00:09:37You're going into rut!
00:09:38He tugged at his collar, breathing hard.
00:09:40So hot.
00:09:41He pulled his shirt open at the throat.
00:09:43Hold on.
00:09:43Let me get you a suppressor.
00:09:45He caught my wrist before I could turn.
00:09:46Don't go.
00:09:47He pressed my palm flat against his bare chest.
00:09:49His skin was hot, and his heart pounded under it.
00:09:51This helps.
00:09:52Stay like this.
00:09:53Heat rushed straight to my face.
00:09:55Then, what do you want me to do?
00:09:57He pinned me back against the door.
00:09:59His tail caught me so it didn't hurt.
00:10:02Hot breath spilled across the back of my neck.
00:10:05I could not break free of his hold.
00:10:09Then a fist pounded on the door.
00:10:10Cora, what's wrong in there?
00:10:39What's wrong in there?
00:10:40I had lived this a hundred times. Everyone always wants Vivian. She is bright and easy to love.
00:10:46Next to her, I am plain and quiet. So I turned away and said nothing.
00:10:51Your place is nothing like the family mansion. Is there even room for them here?

00:12:56Fine. My place is bigger anyway. But my snake is cold. He won't touch you.

00:18:24Deuce glanced at her, then at me.
00:18:26I kept my face blank.
00:18:28Relax.
00:18:29I'll treat them better than you ever could.
00:18:31Vivian came over and patted my arm.
00:18:33Have your fun, then come home and marry him.
00:18:35Marry?
00:18:36What marriage?
00:18:37Vivian didn't explain.
00:18:38She smiled at me, soft and pitiful.
00:18:41Why not keep one?
00:18:42She looked so sad.
00:18:43Not one of them moved toward me.
00:18:44Between us, I am never the one chosen.
00:18:47We both made peace with that long ago.
00:18:48Then I lifted my chin.
00:18:50Where is he?
00:18:51Vivian paused, then called toward the hall.
00:18:54Come inside.
00:18:55Heavy footsteps crossed the floor.
00:18:57A tall man stepped into the light.
00:18:59He stood tall, his expression cold.
00:19:01Then his dark eyes locked onto mine.
00:19:05I held his cold stare and made myself speak.
00:19:08Hello.
00:19:10He looked down at me without a word.
00:19:12His gaze was heavy, dark, and reptile cold.
00:19:15He did not answer me at all.
00:19:18Goosebumps spread down both my arms.
00:19:20That's just how he is.
00:19:21Can't stand him.
00:19:22I'll take him back.
00:19:23Wait.
00:19:24Who is this guy?
00:19:26The driver is waiting downstairs.
00:19:28Let's go.
00:19:29She didn't explain, and I couldn't either.
00:19:32The three wolves went quiet and followed her out.
00:19:35Just like that, they were gone.
00:19:38The snake stayed behind without a word.
00:19:41I reached out to close the door.
00:19:43Deuce turned and looked back at me.
00:19:45His eyes gave nothing away.
00:19:47Then the man beside me changed.
00:19:49His dark pupils narrowed into cold slits.
00:19:51A slick tail shot around my waist.
00:19:53A strange, heavy scent burst through the room.
00:19:56It filled my lungs and made me dizzy.
00:19:58I shoved at his chest, but he didn't move.
00:20:00You-
00:20:00You're going into rut!
00:20:02He tugged at his collar, breathing hard.
00:20:04So hot.
00:20:05He pulled his shirt open at the throat.
00:20:07Hold on.
00:20:07Let me get you a suppressor.
00:20:09He caught my wrist before I could turn.
00:20:10Don't go.
00:20:11He pressed my palm flat against his bare chest.
00:20:13His skin was hot, and his heart pounded under it.
00:20:15This helps.
00:20:16Stay like this.
00:20:17Heat rushed straight to my face.
00:20:19Then, what do you want me to do?
00:20:21He pinned me back against the door.
00:20:23His tail caught me, so it didn't hurt.
00:20:26Hot breath spilled across the back of my neck.
00:20:29I could not break free of his hold.
00:20:33Then a fist pounded on the door.
00:20:35Cora?
00:20:35What's wrong in there?
00:20:38Cora?
00:20:50Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:20:54She drew every eyes in the room.
00:20:58Surprise!
00:20:59I just had to meet your strays.
00:21:01I turned to watch the wolves.
00:21:03All three of them only watched her.
00:21:04I had lived this a hundred times.
00:21:06Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:21:08She is bright and easy to love.
00:21:10Next to her, I am plain and quiet.
00:21:12So I turned away and said nothing.
00:21:15Your place is nothing like the family mansion.
00:21:18Is there even room for them here?
00:21:20They managed fine.
00:21:22Then I saw it happen.
00:21:23Ace never cared about anything.
00:21:25Now he stared at her.
00:21:26Deuce gave her his warmest smile.
00:21:29Even hot-tempered Trey washed her, ears twitching.
00:21:32Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:21:34All right.
00:21:35Here.
00:21:39Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:21:42You three are so sweet.
00:21:45They had never once done that for me.
00:21:47She sat there sweet and oblivious to it all.
00:21:50That was the moment I knew.
00:21:53My things were about to become hers once more.
00:21:56After she left, everything changed.
00:21:58The soft nights were over.
00:22:00I finally understood what they were doing.
00:22:02One look at Vivian had been enough.
00:22:03They wanted her, and I was in the way.
00:22:05So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:22:07Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:22:09But I heard them first.
00:22:10And I had a plan of my own.
00:22:12Hello.
00:22:14My sister Vivian always wants more in bed.
00:22:18But her partner is a snake.
00:22:20He stays cold.
00:22:21My partners are three wolves.
00:22:24Every night they wear me down to nothing.
00:22:26But none of them wants me.
00:22:28The one they want is Vivian.
00:22:30So I offered her a swap.
00:22:32My wolves had me all night.
00:22:34Then I blacked out.
00:22:37But I came to before they noticed.
00:22:39Voices drifted in from the living room.
00:22:42That soft little body.
00:22:44No stamina at all.
00:22:46She really thinks she can keep all three of us?
00:22:49Give it time.
00:22:50Once she breaks, she'll hand us to her sister.
00:22:53She can barely breathe.
00:22:55A few more nights, she's done.
00:22:56An hour ago, I had cried in their arms.
00:22:59They called that week.
00:23:01I was done crying.
00:23:03I reached for my phone and called Vivian.
00:23:07What's wrong?
00:23:08You said you were pent up, right?
00:23:09Take all three wolves.
00:23:10Give me your snake.
00:23:12Wait, really?
00:23:12They're okay with it?
00:23:13They like you.
00:23:15A lot.
00:23:15She didn't argue.
00:23:17Everyone likes her more.
00:23:18It has always been true.
00:23:20Fine.
00:23:21My place is bigger anyway.
00:23:22But my snake is cold.
00:23:23He won't touch you.
00:23:24Good.
00:23:24I'm too wrecked to want more.
00:23:25He can just handle the chores.
00:23:27I'll come this afternoon.
00:23:28The door opened the second she hung up.
00:23:31Ace stood there, his eyes heavy and half closed.
00:23:34He reached for my blanket.
00:23:36Wait.
00:23:37Not done resting, Master?
00:23:39We're done.
00:23:41Vivian takes you this afternoon.
00:23:42He went still.
00:23:43At the door, Deuce and Trey froze too.
00:23:46Which two of us?
00:23:47They thought I was keeping one.
00:23:49All three of you.
00:23:54Three months ago, none of this had happened.
00:23:57It started on a cold, rainy night.
00:23:59Three wolves lay bleeding on the wet concrete.
00:24:02I almost walked right past them.
00:24:04Then one weak tail curled around my ankle.
00:24:08I couldn't leave them there.
00:24:10So I carried all three of them home.
00:24:15They healed fast under my care.
00:24:19Then their growth phase hit.
00:24:21One by one, they shifted into men.
00:24:34I called the shifter shelter to give them up.
00:24:37They've imprinted on you.
00:24:38Abandoning them now would traumatize them.
00:24:44Three pairs of eyes watched me and waited.
00:24:47I didn't have the heart.
00:24:49So I kept them.
00:24:51I named them Ace, Deuce, and Trey, from oldest to youngest.
00:25:00Back then, they adored me.
00:25:02They trailed me from room to room.
00:25:05Their hands were always on me.
00:25:16Then my sister called with the family's orders.
00:25:18When are you coming home to marry him?
00:25:21My family found me a husband for the money.
00:25:26He was old and ugly.
00:25:30I refused him.
00:25:33So they cut off my income.
00:25:36They would never force Vivian to marry him.
00:25:40All the pressure fell on me instead.
00:25:44That guy buried three wives.
00:25:46And he's ugly.
00:25:48But his family is rich.
00:25:52Deuce pulled me close and kissed my hair.
00:25:55You sound upset.
00:25:56Just hang up on her.
00:25:59Vivian caught his voice through the phone.
00:26:01Who was that?
00:26:02His voice is gorgeous.
00:26:04Just three strays I took in.
00:26:05Strays?
00:26:07I have to see them.
00:26:08I'm coming tomorrow.
00:26:12I should have said no.
00:26:15The next day, she walked through my door.
00:26:18All three wolves turned to look at her.
00:26:20And not one of them looked away.
00:26:21I had seen that look before.
00:26:23It had never once been aimed at me.
00:26:29Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:26:33She drew every eyes in the room.
00:26:37Surprise!
00:26:38I just had to meet your strays.
00:26:39I turned to watch the wolves.
00:26:42All three of them only watched her.
00:26:43I had lived this a hundred times.
00:26:45Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:26:47She is bright and easy to love.
00:26:49Next to her, I am plain and quiet.
00:26:52So I turned away and said nothing.
00:26:54Your place is nothing like the family mansion.
00:26:56Is there even room for them here?
00:26:59They manage fine.
00:27:01Then I saw it happen.
00:27:02Ace never cared about anything.
00:27:04Now he stared at her.
00:27:05Deuce gave her his warmest smile.
00:27:08Even hot-tempered Trey watched her, ears twitching.
00:27:11Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:27:14Here.
00:27:14The sweetest part is yours.
00:27:18Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:27:22You three are so sweet.
00:27:23They had never once done that for me.
00:27:26She sat there sweet and oblivious to it all.
00:27:29That was the moment I knew.
00:27:32My things were about to become hers once more.
00:27:35After she left, everything changed.
00:27:37The soft nights were over.
00:27:39I finally understood what they were doing.
00:27:41One look at Vivian had been enough.
00:27:43They wanted her, and I was in the way.
00:27:44So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:27:46Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:27:48But I heard them first.
00:27:49And I had a plan of my own.
00:27:53By afternoon, the apartment had gone dead quiet.
00:27:57Then someone knocked.
00:27:59Vivian was here.
00:28:01Ace laying on the wall and stared me down.
00:28:04You're really handing all three of us to her?
00:28:08I nodded.
00:28:10You won't even keep one of us?
00:28:13Which one of you wants to stay with me?
00:28:15The room went still.
00:28:17No one said a word.
00:28:18That was my answer.
00:28:19Trey rolled his eyes and went to the door.
00:28:23Drop the wounded act, all of you.
00:28:26He opened it.
00:28:29Vivian beamed at them.
00:28:32Hi, boys.
00:28:33My sister told you, right?
00:28:35You're all mine now.
00:28:36Trey leaned right into her.
00:28:38Hello, my new master.
00:28:41Don't pack a thing.
00:28:43I'll buy you everything at the mansion.
00:28:45Ace gave a lazy hum.
00:28:47Deuce glanced at her, then at me.
00:28:50I kept my face blank.
00:28:52Relax.
00:28:53I'll treat them better than you ever could.
00:28:55Vivian came over and patted my arm.
00:28:57Have your fun, then come home and marry him.
00:28:59Marry?
00:29:00What marriage?
00:29:01Vivian didn't explain.
00:29:02She smiled at me, soft and pitiful.
00:29:05Why not keep one?
00:29:06She looks so sad.
00:29:07Not one of them moved toward me.
00:29:09Between us, I am never the one chosen.
00:29:11We both made peace with that long ago.
00:29:12Then I lifted my chin.
00:29:14Where is he?
00:29:15Vivian paused, then called toward the hall.
00:29:17Come inside.
00:29:19Heavy footsteps crossed the floor.
00:29:21A tall man stepped into the light.
00:29:23He stood tall, his expression cold.
00:29:25Then his dark eyes locked onto mine.
00:29:28I held his cold stare and made myself speak.
00:29:32Hello.
00:29:34He looked down at me without a word.
00:29:36His gaze was heavy, dark, and reptile cold.
00:29:39He did not answer me at all.
00:29:42Goosebumps spread down both my arms.
00:29:44That's just how he is.
00:29:45Can't stand him.
00:29:46I'll take him back.
00:29:47Wait.
00:29:48Who is this guy?
00:29:50The driver is waiting downstairs.
00:29:52Let's go.
00:29:53She didn't explain, and I couldn't either.
00:29:56The three wolves went quiet and followed her out.
00:29:59Just like that, they were gone.
00:30:02The snake stayed behind without a word.
00:30:05I reached out to close the door.
00:30:07Deuce turned and looked back at me.
00:30:09His eyes gave nothing away.
00:30:11Then the man beside me changed.
00:30:13His dark pupils narrowed into cold slits.
00:30:15A slick tail shot around my waist.
00:30:17A strange, heavy scent burst through the room.
00:30:20It filled my lungs and made me dizzy.

00:30:31Hold on.
00:30:31Let me get you a suppressor.
00:30:33He caught my wrist before I could turn.
00:30:34Don't go.
00:30:34He pressed my palm flat against his bare chest.
00:30:37His skin was hot, and his heart pounded under it.
00:30:39This helps.
00:30:40Stay like this.

00:30:59What's wrong in there?
00:31:14Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:31:18She drew every eyes in the room.
00:31:22Surprise!
00:31:23I just had to meet your strays.
00:31:25I turned to watch the wolves.
00:31:27All three of them only watched her.
00:31:28I had lived this a hundred times.
00:31:30Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:31:32She is bright and easy to love.
00:31:34Next to her, I am plain and quiet.
00:31:37So I turned away and said nothing.
00:31:39Your place is nothing like the family mansion.

00:31:49Now he stared at her.
00:31:50Deuce gave her his warmest smile.
00:31:53Even hot-tempered Trey watched her, ears twitching.
00:31:56Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:31:59Here, the sweetest heart is yours.
00:32:03Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:32:07You three are so sweet.
00:32:09They had never once done that for me.
00:32:11She sat there sweet and oblivious to it all.
00:32:14That was the moment I knew.
00:32:16My things were about to become hers once more.
00:32:20After she left, everything changed.
00:32:22The soft nights were over.
00:32:24I finally understood what they were doing.
00:32:26One look at Vivian had been enough.
00:32:28They wanted her, and I was in the way.
00:32:29So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:32:31Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:32:33But I heard them first.
00:32:34And I had a plan of my own.
00:32:36Hello.
00:32:38My sister Vivian always wants more in bed.
00:32:41But her partner is a snake.
00:32:44He stays cold.
00:32:45My partners are three wolves.
00:32:48Every night they wear me down to nothing.
00:32:50But none of them wants me.
00:32:52The one they want is Vivian.
00:32:54So I offered her a swap.
00:32:56My wolves had me all night.
00:32:58Then I blacked out.
00:33:01But I came to before they noticed.
00:33:03Voices drifted in from the living room.
00:33:06That soft little body.
00:33:08No stamina at all.
00:33:10She really thinks she can keep all three of us?
00:33:13Give it time.
00:33:14Once she breaks, she'll hand us to her sister.
00:33:17She can barely breathe.
00:33:19A few more nights, she's done.
00:33:20An hour ago, I had cried in their arms.
00:33:23They called that week.
00:33:25I was done crying.
00:33:27I reached for my phone and called Vivian.
00:33:31What's wrong?
00:33:32You said you were pent up, right?
00:33:33Take all three wolves.
00:33:34Give me your snake.
00:33:36Wait, really?
00:33:36They're okay with it?
00:33:37They like you.
00:33:39A lot.
00:33:39She didn't argue.
00:33:41Everyone likes her more.
00:33:42It has always been true.
00:33:44Fine, my place is bigger anyway.
00:33:46But my snake is cold.
00:33:47He won't touch you.
00:33:47Good.
00:33:48I'm too wrecked to want more.
00:33:49He can just handle the chores.
00:33:51I'll come this afternoon.
00:33:52The door opened the second she hung up.
00:33:55Ace stood there.
00:33:56His eyes heavy and half closed.
00:33:58He reached for my blanket.
00:34:00Wait.
00:34:01Not done resting, Master?
00:34:03We're done.
00:34:05Vivian takes you this afternoon.
00:34:06He went still.
00:34:07At the door, Deuce and Trey froze too.
00:34:10Which two of us?
00:34:11They thought I was keeping one.
00:34:13All three of you.
00:34:18Three months ago, none of this had happened.
00:34:21It started on a cold, rainy night.
00:34:23Three wolves lay bleeding on the wet concrete.
00:34:26I almost walked right past them.
00:34:28Then one weak tail curled around my ankle.
00:34:32I couldn't leave them there.
00:34:34So I carried all three of them home.
00:34:39They healed fast under my care.
00:34:43Then their growth phase hit.
00:34:45One by one, they shifted into men.
00:34:58I called the shifter shelter to give them up.
00:35:01They've imprinted on you.
00:35:02Abandoning them now would traumatize them.
00:35:08Three pairs of eyes watched me and waited.
00:35:10I didn't have the heart.
00:35:12So I kept them.
00:35:15I named them Ace, Deuce, and Trey, from oldest to youngest.
00:35:24Back then, they adored me.
00:35:26They trailed me from room to room.
00:35:29Their hands were always on me.
00:35:40Then my sister called with the family's orders.
00:35:42When are you coming home to marry him?
00:35:45My family found me a husband for the money.
00:35:50He was old and ugly.
00:35:54I refused him.
00:35:57So they cut off my income.
00:36:00They would never force Vivian to marry him.
00:36:04All the pressure fell on me instead.
00:36:08That guy buried three wives.
00:36:10And he's ugly.
00:36:12But his family is rich.
00:36:16Deuce pulled me close and kissed my hair.
00:36:19You sound upset.
00:36:20Just hang up on her.
00:36:23Vivian caught his voice through the phone.
00:36:25Who was that?
00:36:26His voice is gorgeous.
00:36:28Just three strays I took in.
00:36:29Strays?
00:36:31I have to see them.
00:36:32I'm coming tomorrow.
00:36:36I should have said no.
00:36:39The next day, she walked through my door.
00:36:42All three wolves turned to look at her.
00:36:44And not one of them looked away.
00:36:45I had seen that look before.
00:36:47It had never once been aimed at me.
00:36:53Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:36:57She drew every eyes in the room.
00:37:01Surprise!
00:37:01I just had to meet your strays.
00:37:03I turned to watch the wolves.
00:37:05All three of them only watched her.
00:37:07I had lived this a hundred times.
00:37:09Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:37:11She is bright and easy to love.
00:37:13Next to her, I am plain and quiet.
00:37:15So I turned away and said nothing.
00:37:18Your place is nothing like the family mansion.
00:37:20Is there even room for them here?
00:37:23They manage fine.
00:37:24Then I saw it happen.
00:37:26Ace never cared about anything.
00:37:28Now he stared at her.
00:37:29Deuce gave her his warmest smile.
00:37:32Even hot-tempered Trey watched her, ears twitching.
00:37:35Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:37:38Here.
00:37:38The sweetest part is yours.
00:37:42Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:37:45You three are so sweet.
00:37:47They had never once done that for me.
00:37:50She sat there sweet and oblivious to it all.
00:37:53That was the moment I knew.
00:37:56My things were about to become hers once more.
00:37:59After she left, everything changed.
00:38:01The soft nights were over.
00:38:03I finally understood what they were doing.
00:38:05One look at Vivian had been enough.
00:38:07They wanted her, and I was in the way.
00:38:08So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:38:10Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:38:12But I heard them first.
00:38:13And I had a plan of my own.
00:38:15Hello.
00:38:17By afternoon, the apartment had gone dead quiet.
00:38:21Then someone knocked.
00:38:22Vivian was here.
00:38:25Ace laying on the wall and stared me down.
00:38:28You're really handing all three of us to her?
00:38:32I nodded.
00:38:34You won't even keep one of us?
00:38:37Which one of you wants to stay with me?
00:38:39The room went still.
00:38:41No one said a word.
00:38:42That was my answer.
00:38:43Trey rolled his eyes and went to the door.
00:38:47Drop the wounded act, all of you.
00:38:50He opened it.
00:38:53Vivian beamed at them.
00:38:56Hi, boys.
00:38:57My sister told you, right?
00:38:59You're all mine now.
00:39:00Trey leaned right into her.
00:39:02Hello, my new master.
00:39:05Don't pack a thing.
00:39:07I'll buy you everything at the mansion.
00:39:09Ace gave a lazy hum.
00:39:11Deuce glanced at her, then at me.
00:39:14I kept my face blank.
00:39:16Relax.
00:39:17I'll treat them better than you ever could.
00:39:19Vivian came over and patted my arm.
00:39:21Have your fun, then come home and marry him.
00:39:23Marry?
00:39:24What marriage?
00:39:25Vivian didn't explain.
00:39:26She smiled at me, soft and pitiful.
00:39:28Why not keep one?
00:39:30She looked so sad.
00:39:31Not one of them moved toward me.
00:39:33Between us, I am never the one chosen.
00:39:35We both made peace with that long ago.
00:39:36Then I lifted my chin.
00:39:37Where is he?
00:39:38Vivian paused, then called toward the hall.
00:39:41Come inside.
00:39:43Heavy footsteps crossed the floor.
00:39:45A tall man stepped into the light.
00:39:47He stood tall, his expression cold.
00:39:49Then his dark eyes locked onto mine.
00:39:52I held his cold stare and made myself speak.
00:39:56Hello?
00:39:58He looked down at me without a word.
00:40:00His gaze was heavy, dark, and reptile cold.
00:40:03He did not answer me at all.
00:40:06Goosebumps spread down both my arms.
00:40:08That's just how he is.
00:40:09Can't stand him, I'll take him back.
00:40:11Wait, who is this guy?
00:40:14The driver is waiting downstairs.
00:40:16Let's go.
00:40:17She didn't explain, and I couldn't either.
00:40:20The three wolves went quiet and followed her out.
00:40:23Just like that, they were gone.
00:40:26The snake stayed behind without a word.
00:40:28I reached out to close the door.
00:40:31Deuce turned and looked back at me.
00:40:33His eyes gave nothing away.
00:40:35Then the man beside me changed.
00:40:37His dark pupils narrowed into cold slits.
00:40:39A slick tail shot around my waist.
00:40:41A strange, heavy scent burst through the room.
00:40:44It filled my lungs and made me dizzy.
00:40:46I shoved at his chest, but he didn't move.
00:40:48You, you're going into rut!
00:40:50He tugged at his collar, breathing hard.
00:40:52So hot.
00:40:53He pulled his shirt open at the throat.
00:40:55Hold on, let me get you a suppressor.
00:40:57He caught my wrist before I could turn.
00:40:58Don't go.
00:40:59He pressed my palm flat against his bare chest.
00:41:01His skin was hot, and his heart pounded under it.
00:41:03This helps.
00:41:04Stay like this.
00:41:05Heat rushed straight to my face.
00:41:07Then, what do you want me to do?
00:41:09He pinned me back against the door.
00:41:11His tail caught me, so it didn't hurt.
00:41:14Hot breath spilled across the back of my neck.
00:41:16I could not break free of his hold.
00:41:21Then a fist pounded on the door.
00:41:23Cora, what's wrong in there?
00:41:38Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:41:42She drew every eyes in the ring.
00:41:46Surprise!
00:41:47I just had to meet your strays.
00:41:48I turned to watch the wolves.
00:41:50All three of them only watched her.
00:41:52I had lived this a hundred times.
00:41:54Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:41:56She is bright and easy to love.
00:41:58Next to her, I am plain and quiet.
00:42:01So I turned away and said nothing.
00:42:03Your place is nothing like the family mansion.
00:42:06Is there even room for them here?
00:42:08They managed fine.
00:42:10Then I saw it happen.
00:42:11Ace never cared about anything.
00:42:13Now he stared at her.
00:42:14Deuce gave her his warmest smile.
00:42:17Even hot-tempered Trey washed her, ears twitching.
00:42:20Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:42:23Here, the sweetest part is yours.
00:42:27Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:42:31You three are so sweet.
00:42:33They had never once done that for me.
00:42:35She sat there sweet and oblivious to it all.
00:42:38That was the moment I knew.
00:42:40My things were about to become hers once more.
00:42:44After she left, everything changed.
00:42:46The soft nights were over.
00:42:48I finally understood what they were doing.
00:42:50One look at Vivian had been enough.
00:42:51They wanted her, and I was in the way.
00:42:53So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:42:55Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:42:57But I heard them first.
00:42:58And I had a plan of my own.
00:43:00Hello.
00:43:02My sister Vivian always wants more in bed.
00:43:06But her partner is a snake.
00:43:08He stays cold.
00:43:09My partners are three wolves.
00:43:12Every night they wear me down to nothing.
00:43:14But none of them wants me.
00:43:16The one they want is Vivian.
00:43:18So I offered her a swap.
00:43:20My wolves had me all night.
00:43:22Then I blacked out.
00:43:25But I came to before they noticed.
00:43:27Voices drifted in from the living room.
00:43:30That soft little body, no stamina at all.
00:43:34She really thinks she can keep all three of us?
00:43:37Give it time.
00:43:38Once she breaks, she'll hand us to her sister.
00:43:41She can barely breathe.
00:43:42A few more nights, she's done.
00:43:44An hour ago, I had cried in their arms.
00:43:47They called that week.
00:43:49I was done crying.
00:43:51I reached for my phone and called Vivian.
00:43:55What's wrong?
00:43:56You said you were pent up, right?
00:43:57Take all three wolves.
00:43:58Give me your snake.
00:44:00Wait, really?
00:44:00They're okay with it?
00:44:01They like you.
00:44:03A lot.
00:44:03She didn't argue.
00:44:05Everyone likes her more.
00:44:06It has always been true.
00:44:08Fine.
00:44:08My place is bigger anyway.
00:44:10But my snake is cold.
00:44:11He won't touch you.
00:44:11Good.
00:44:12I'm too wrecked to want more.
00:44:13He can just handle the chores.
00:44:15I'll come this afternoon.
00:44:16The door opened the second she hung up.
00:44:19Ace stood there, his eyes heavy and half closed.
00:44:22He reached for my blanket.
00:44:24Wait.
00:44:25Not done resting, Master?
00:44:27We're done.
00:44:28Vivian takes you this afternoon.
00:44:30He went still.
00:44:31At the door, Deuce and Trey froze too.
00:44:34Which two of us?
00:44:35They thought I was keeping one.
00:44:37All three of you.
00:44:42Three months ago, none of this had happened.
00:44:45It started on a cold, rainy night.
00:44:47Three wolves lay bleeding on the wet concrete.
00:44:50I almost walked right past them.
00:44:52Then one weak tail curled around my ankle.
00:44:56I couldn't leave them there, so I carried all three of them home.
00:45:03They healed fast under my care.
00:45:07Then their growth phase hit.
00:45:09One by one, they shifted into men.
00:45:22I called the shifter shelter to give them up.
00:45:25They've imprinted on you.
00:45:26Abandoning them now would traumatize them.
00:45:32Three pairs of eyes watched me and waited.
00:45:34I didn't have the heart.
00:45:36So I kept them.
00:45:39I named them Ace, Deuce, and Trey, from oldest to youngest.
00:45:48Back then, they adored me.
00:45:50They trailed me from room to room.
00:45:53Their hands were always on me.

00:46:43You sound upset.
00:46:44Just hang up on her.
00:46:47Vivian caught his voice through the phone.

00:46:52Just three strays I took in.

00:49:52Why not keep one?
00:49:54She looks so sad.

00:52:10Surprise!
00:52:11I just had to meet your strain.
00:52:12I turned to watch the wolves.
00:52:15All three of them only watched her.
00:52:16I had lived this a hundred times.
00:52:18Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:52:20She is bright and easy to love.

00:52:41Even hot-tempered Trey washed her, ears twitching.
00:52:44Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:52:47Here.
00:52:47The sweetest part is yours.
00:52:51Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:52:54You three are so sweet.
00:52:56They had never once done that for me.
00:52:59She sat there sweet and oblivious to it all.
00:53:02That was the moment I knew.
00:53:04My things were about to become hers once more.
00:53:08After she left, everything changed.
00:53:10The soft nights were over.
00:53:12I finally understood what they were doing.
00:53:14One look at Vivian had been enough.
00:53:15They wanted her, and I was in the way.
00:53:17So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:53:19Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:53:21But I heard them first, and I had a plan of my own.
00:53:24Hello.
00:53:26My sister Vivian always wants more in bed.
00:53:29But her partner is a snake.
00:53:32He stays cold.
00:53:33My partners are three wolves.
00:53:36Every night they wear me down to nothing.
00:53:38But none of them wants me.
00:53:40The one they want is Vivian.
00:53:42So I offered her a swap.
00:53:44My wolves had me all night.
00:53:46Then I blacked out.
00:53:48But I came to before they noticed.
00:53:51Voices drifted in from the living room.
00:53:54That soft little body, no stamina at all.
00:53:58She really thinks she can keep all three of us?
00:54:01Give it time.
00:54:02Once she breaks, she'll hand us to her sister.
00:54:05She can barely breathe.
00:54:06A few more nights, she's done.
00:54:08An hour ago, I had cried in their arms.
00:54:11They called that week.
00:54:13I was done crying.
00:54:15I reached for my phone and called Vivian.
00:54:19What's wrong?
00:54:20You said you were pent up, right?
00:54:21Take all three wolves.
00:54:22Give me your snake.
00:54:24Wait, really?
00:54:24They're okay with it?
00:54:25They like you.
00:54:26A lot.
00:54:27She didn't argue.
00:54:29Everyone likes her more.
00:54:30It has always been true.
00:54:32Fine.
00:54:32My place is bigger anyway.
00:54:34But my snake is cold.
00:54:35He won't touch you.
00:54:35Good.
00:54:36I'm too wrecked to want more.
00:54:37He can just handle the chores.
00:54:38I'll come this afternoon.
00:54:40The door opened the second she hung up.
00:54:43Ace stood there, his eyes heavy and half closed.
00:54:46He reached for my blanket.
00:54:48Wait.
00:54:49Not done resting, Master?
00:54:51We're done.
00:54:52Vivian takes you this afternoon.
00:54:54He went still.
00:54:55At the door, Deuce and Trey froze too.
00:54:58Which two of us?
00:54:59They thought I was keeping one.
00:55:01All three of you.
00:55:06Three months ago, none of this had happened.
00:55:09It started on a cold, rainy night.
00:55:11Three wolves lay bleeding on the wet concrete.
00:55:14I almost walked right past them.
00:55:16Then one weak tail curled around my ankle.
00:55:20I couldn't leave them there.
00:55:22So I carried all three of them home.
00:55:27They healed fast under my care.
00:55:31Then their growth phase hit.
00:55:33One by one, they shifted into men.
00:55:46I called the shifter shelter to give them up.
00:55:49They've imprinted on you.
00:55:50Abandoning them now would traumatize them.
00:55:56Three pairs of eyes watched me and waited.
00:55:58I didn't have the heart.
00:56:01So I kept them.
00:56:03I named them Ace, Deuce, and Trey, from oldest to youngest.
00:56:11Back then, they adored me.
00:56:14They trailed me from room to room.
00:56:17Their hands were always on me.
00:56:28Then my sister called with the family's orders.
00:56:30When are you coming home to marry him?
00:56:33My family found me a husband for the money.
00:56:38He was old and ugly.
00:56:41I refused him.
00:56:44So they cut off my income.
00:56:48They would never force Vivian to marry him.
00:56:52All the pressure fell on me instead.
00:56:56That guy buried three wives.
00:56:58And he's ugly.
00:57:00But his family is rich.
00:57:04Deuce pulled me close and kissed my hair.
00:57:07Vivian, you sound upset.
00:57:08Just hang up on her.
00:57:11Vivian caught his voice through the phone.
00:57:13Who was that?
00:57:14His voice is gorgeous.
00:57:16Just three strays I took in.
00:57:17Strays?
00:57:18I have to see them.
00:57:20I'm coming tomorrow.
00:57:24I should have said no.
00:57:27The next day, she walked through my door.
00:57:30All three wolves turned to look at her.
00:57:32And not one of them looked away.
00:57:33I had seen that look before.
00:57:35It had never once been aimed at me.
00:57:41Vivian stepped inside in a white dress.
00:57:45She drew every eyes in the room.
00:57:49Surprise!
00:57:50I just had to meet your strays.
00:57:51I turned to watch the wolves.
00:57:53All three of them only watched her.
00:57:55I had lived this a hundred times.
00:57:57Everyone always wants Vivian.
00:57:59She is bright and easy to love.
00:58:01Next to her, I am plain and quiet.
00:58:03So I turned away and said nothing.
00:58:06Your place is nothing like the family mansion.
00:58:09Is there even room for them here?
00:58:11They manage fine.
00:58:12Then I saw it happen.
00:58:14Ace never cared about anything.
00:58:16Now he stared at her.
00:58:17Deuce gave her his warmest smile.
00:58:20Even hot-tempered Trey watched her, ears twitching.
00:58:23Deuce peeled an apple and handed her a slice.
00:58:29Ace refilled her water before the glass ran low.
00:58:34You three are so sweet.
00:58:36They had never once done that for me.
00:58:38She sat there sweet and oblivious to it all.
00:58:41That was the moment I knew.
00:58:43My things were about to become hers once more.
00:58:47After she left, everything changed.
00:58:49The soft nights were over.
00:58:51I finally understood what they were doing.
00:58:53One look at Vivian had been enough.
00:58:54They wanted her, and I was in the way.
00:58:56So they would wear me down to nothing.
00:58:58Then I would hand them to my sister.
00:59:00But I heard them first.
00:59:01And I had a plan of my own.
00:59:03Hello.
00:59:05By afternoon, the apartment had gone dead quiet.
00:59:09Then someone knocked.
00:59:10Vivian was here.
00:59:13Ace laying on the wall and stared me down.
00:59:16You're really handing all three of us to her?
00:59:20I nodded.
00:59:22You won't even keep one of us?
00:59:25Which one of you wants to stay with me?
00:59:27The room went still.
00:59:29No one said a word.
00:59:30That was my answer.
00:59:31Trey rolled his eyes and went to the door.
00:59:34Drop the wounded act, all of you.
00:59:38He opened it.
00:59:41Vivian beamed at them.
00:59:44Hi, boys.
00:59:45My sister told you, right?
00:59:47You're all mine now.
00:59:48Trey leaned right into her.
00:59:50Hello, my new master.
00:59:53Don't pack a thing.
00:59:55I'll buy you everything at the mansion.
00:59:57Ace gave a lazy hum.
00:59:59Deuce glanced at her, then at me.
01:00:02I kept my face blank.
01:00:04Relax.
01:00:05I'll treat them better than you ever could.
01:00:07Vivian came over and patted my arm.
01:00:09Have your fun, then come home and marry him.
01:00:11Marry?
01:00:12What marriage?
01:00:13Vivian didn't explain.
01:00:14She smiled at me, soft and pitiful.
01:00:16Why not keep one?
01:00:18She looks so sad.
01:00:19Not one of them moved toward me.
01:00:21Between us, I am never the one chosen.
01:00:23We both made peace with that long ago.
01:00:24Then I lifted my chin.
01:00:26Where is he?
01:00:26Vivian paused, then called toward the hall.
01:00:29Come inside.
01:00:31Heavy footsteps crossed the floor.
01:00:33A tall man stepped into the light.
01:00:35He stood tall, his expression cold.
01:00:37Then his dark eyes locked onto mine.
01:00:40I held his cold stare and made myself speak.
01:00:44Hello?
01:00:46He looked down at me without a word.
01:00:48His gaze was heavy, dark, and reptile cold.
01:00:51He did not answer me at all.
01:00:54Goosebumps spread down both my arms.
01:00:56That's just how he is.
01:00:57Can't stand him.
01:00:58I'll take him back.
01:00:59Wait.
01:00:59Who is this guy?
01:01:02The driver is waiting downstairs.
01:01:04Let's go.
01:01:05She didn't explain, and I couldn't either.
01:01:08The three wolves went quiet and followed her out.
01:01:11Just like that, they were gone.
01:01:14The snake stayed behind without a word.
01:01:16I reached out to close the door.
01:01:19Deuce turned and looked back at me.
01:01:21His eyes gave nothing away.
01:01:23Then the man beside me changed.
01:01:25His dark pupils narrowed into cold slits.
01:01:27A slick tail shot around my waist.
01:01:29A strange, heavy scent burst through the room.
01:01:32It filled my lungs and made me dizzy.
01:01:34I shoved at his chest, but he didn't move.
01:01:36You...
01:01:36You're going into rut!
01:01:38He tugged at his collar, breathing hard.
01:01:40So hot.
01:01:41He pulled his shirt open at the throat.
01:01:42Hold on.
01:01:43Let me get you a suppressor.
01:01:44He caught my wrist before I could turn.
01:01:46Don't go.
01:01:46He pressed my palm flat against his bare chest.
01:01:49His skin was hot, and his heart pounded under it.
01:01:51This helps.
01:01:52Stay like this.
01:01:53Heat rushed straight to my face.
01:01:55Then, what do you want me to do?
01:01:57He pinned me back against the door.
01:01:59His tail caught me so it didn't hurt.
01:02:02Hot breath spilled across the back of my neck.
01:02:05I could not break free of his hold.
01:02:09Then a fist pounded on the door.
01:02:10Cora?
01:02:11What's wrong in there?
01:02:14What do you want me to do?
01:02:18What do you want me to do?
01:02:19What do you want me to do?
01:02:21What do you want me to do?
01:02:23What do you want me to do?
01:02:23What do you want me to do?
01:02:23You
