01:00Runt, looks aren't everything. You don't have to be so insecure around me.
01:04My hand, which was about to pull down my mask, froze, seeing me stand there in silence.
01:08Vivian immediately turned to our parents with a reproachful look.
01:11Mom, Dad, Runt is already very sensitive because of her appearance.
01:15We should be encouraging her, complimenting her, not upsetting her further.
01:19Father frowned at me.
01:21Take off the mask. Let me see if there's any hope.
01:23Before I could move, Mother let out a cold laugh.
01:26Vivian was born with silver eyes and flowing golden hair.
01:30She's famous throughout the clan for her beauty, and she has impeccable manners.
01:35But this one walks in without even a greeting.
01:38Did she leave all her manners back in the black forest?
01:43Better keep the mask on.
01:45I don't want to lose my appetite, looking at her face tonight.
01:49But it wasn't that I wouldn't greet them.
01:51It was that, facing these strangers I was meeting for the first time in 18 years,
01:55I simply couldn't force the words Mom and Dad out.
01:58I gripped my duffel bag.
01:59Where's my room?
01:59The mask hid my face, but not the pure, ethereal quality of my voice.
02:04The hostility vanished from my mother's face the moment she heard my voice.
02:07She actually stuttered, speaking with surprising courtesy.
02:11Second door on the left, upstairs.
02:13Catching the puzzled stares from Father and Vivian, Mother realized her slip.
02:17Her face flushed with chagrin, and her tone turned sharp.
02:20Every room in this house has a purpose.
02:23The one you're staying in was Vivian's dressing room.
02:28Vivian inherited our best traits.
02:30She's already being courted by multiple entertainment companies,
02:33and she's not even of age yet.
02:35That room is full of custom gowns, and a vanity table.
02:39They're useless to you, but essential to her.
02:41You understand, don't you?
02:42I nodded.
02:43I understand.
02:44Sorry to intrude.
02:45I'm only staying for a week.
02:46I'll move into the dorms after I register.
02:48Once again, my voice softened her.
02:50Well, there's no rush, actually.
02:52You could stay until you graduate.
02:54Find a place of your own after that.
02:55I had already made my plans.
02:57I nodded without speaking and headed for the stairs.
02:59Behind me, my mother was still muttering.
03:01What a waste of that voice.
03:03Finest kind of lure call.
03:05A wolf can possess.
03:07Too bad her looks don't match.
03:08She'll never be presentable.
03:10Back in my room, I shut the door and stuffed my sunglasses and mask in my pocket.
03:14My bag sat by the bed, ready to go.
03:16I hadn't taken out a single thing beyond my daily essentials.
03:19In the class group chat, the resident director was arranging dorm assignments.
03:22Out-of-town students who need early move-in, please sign up with me.
03:26I typed a reply without hesitation.
03:27Hi, this is Lyra Voss.
03:29I'd like to apply for early move-in next Friday, if possible.
03:32The resident director replied almost instantly.
03:35Got it.
03:35That's a beautiful name.
03:37I politely replied.
03:38Thank you.
03:39My grandmother gave it to me.
03:40My parents had casually given me the nickname, Runt, and then kicked me to my grandmother's
03:45house right after I was born.
03:47When I turned five and started school, I finally needed a real name.
03:50One I would carry for the rest of my life.
03:52Grandma called the estate several times.
03:54Each time, they said,
03:56We know.
03:56We're thinking about it.
03:58We're both busy with auditions and filming and touring for concerts across the country.
04:02What's the rush?
04:03It's just a name, isn't it?
04:04Months passed.
04:05The first day of school arrived.
04:06Grandma was afraid I'd miss enrollment and fall behind.
04:09So she took it upon herself to name me Lyra Voss.
04:11Sweetie, Grandma doesn't expect you to achieve great things.
04:15All I want is for you to live freely and happily for the rest of your life.
04:19Back then, even as a small child, I understood.
04:22As long as I stayed there, Runt, they would keep kicking me aside.
04:25So I would be Lyra Voss, carrying my grandmother's love and blessings.
04:30Just then, a maid called to me from outside the door.
04:32Miss, dinner is ready.
04:33The maids knew perfectly well that I was also my parents' daughter.
04:37Yet, they respectfully called her Miss Vivian, while I got nothing more than Miss.
04:41I didn't know if this was my parents' instruction or the servant's own decision.
04:45It didn't matter.
04:46I knew this was never my home.
04:47I never had any unrealistic expectations.
04:50But when I came downstairs, the sheer extravagance of the scene stopped me in my tracks.
04:54Jewelry boxes were laid out in a row, with matching Cartier necklaces on red velvet.
04:59Alongside the moonstone earrings the Wolf Clan was famous for,
05:02three maids knelt on one knee before Vivian, each holding a tray.
05:05She sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, her golden mane cascading over her shoulders.
05:10Elegant and regal.
05:13Seeing me pause on the stairs, father's face flickered with embarrassment.
05:17But soon, his scrutinizing gaze swept over me.
05:20Tomorrow is your sister's birthday party.
05:21She needs to look her best.
05:23As for you, wear your own clothes.
05:25Keep it simple.
05:26Being ugly is fine, as long as you keep a low profile and don't attract attention.
05:30But trying too hard to dress up will just make you a laughingstock.
05:33Time, money, companionship, even the smallest scraps of love and attention.
05:38They had given me none of it, so I just nodded calmly, showing I understood.
05:42My silence seemed to unsettle him.
05:43He cleared his throat and looked away.
05:46Well, not that you shouldn't make any effort.
05:47You are a teenage girl.
05:49I'll have Vivian send a few of her simpler, less-worn clothes to your room later.
05:52I was about to say no need when a bodyguard strode in.
05:55Sir, Elder Mr. Wolf of the Silvermoon Clan is here.
05:58He brought a top-class Cabernet Walscon from his estate cellar
06:00and said he'd like to share a drink with you.
06:02Your father's face broke into a smile as he rose to greet the guest.
06:05Then, he seemed to remember something and turned to me.
06:08I have an important guest.
06:09Have your lunch in your room.
06:11The maid will bring it up.
06:12Leave the plate outside the door when you're done.
06:15Stay upstairs unless necessary.
06:17We don't want to have to explain why we have such a mutated, ugly daughter.
06:20My sister looked up at me, graceful as a swan in her beautiful gown.
06:24Run.
06:25Don't take it to heart.
06:26Dad is an award-winning actor and mom is a famous pop diva.
06:29They have reputations to protect.
06:31They can't afford any scandals.
06:32Just have your lunch and rest early this afternoon.
06:35Don't come downstairs.
06:36If we don't call for you tonight, just eat in your room, too.
06:38My parents said nothing, silently endorsing Vivian's words.
06:41In this house, everyone was dazzling the center of attention.
06:45I was the only blemish that needed to be hidden.
06:47Under my parents' unyielding gaze, I spoke calmly,
06:50I'll eat in my room for the rest of my stay.
06:54My parents nodded, satisfied.
06:56Though she's ugly, at least she knows her place.
06:59I kept my promise.
07:00The next day, the maid knocked on my door.
07:02They're about to cut the birthday cake.
07:04Miss Vivian asked me to tell you to come down for a slice of birthday cake.
07:07But by the time I got downstairs, the cake was already gone.
07:10Even the maids, bodyguards, guard dogs, and household pets had gotten a taste of the whipped cream.
07:15Everyone except me.
07:16My parents exchanged a glance and immediately started tearing me down to defend Vivian.
07:21You're already ugly enough.
07:22At least your figure is passable.
07:23Better skip the high-calorie, high-sugar stuff.
07:25Vivian's only looking out for you.
07:26Just as I turned to go back upstairs, Vivian enthusiastically pulled me over to a distinguished, handsome man.
07:31Cale, let me introduce you.
07:33This is my sister, your childhood fiancé.
07:36Cale Howell was the only son of the Howell family.
07:38One of the three most powerful families in the Silvermoon Wolf plan.
07:41And the future outline of the Howell Pack.
07:43Kyle narrowed his eyes at me.
07:44Why the mask and cap? It's night-night.
07:47Anyone would think you were paparagi here to take sneaky photos.
07:50Vivian, clinging to Cale's arm as if claiming territory, laughed with delight.
07:54Cale, you're so bad.
07:55My sister's always been ugly and insecure.
07:57If her fiancé keeps teasing her, she might never leave the house again.
08:00Cale's lips curled in a sneer.
08:02Fiancé?
08:03Even if the Howells and the Vosses were to form an alliance, I wouldn't marry an ugly freak like her.
08:07My future wife at least has to be a wolf beauty.
08:10As talented and pretty as Vivian.
08:13Watching their chosen fiancé humiliate me like this, my parents didn't defend me.
08:18Instead, they looked at Cale with shame.
08:20When that engagement was arranged, we had no idea what kind of child we were carrying.
08:24Cale, rest assured, our families are old friends.
08:27Of course, we'll honor the alliance with our most beautiful daughter.
08:30The one who inherited the very best of us.
08:33We'd sooner keep this ugly one at home forever than let her inflect herself on anyone else.
08:37My fingers clenched, but I stayed silent, offering no defense.
08:40Because I didn't want a fiancé this cruel anyway.
08:43But Cale wasn't done with me.
08:44He pressed closer.
08:45Uncle, Auntie, you're too harsh.
08:47With your excellent genes, your child can't be that bad.
08:50So I'm curious.
08:52What does she really look like?
08:53Why not take off the mask and sunglasses for everyone?
08:56Half of Silvermoon's elite are here tonight.
08:58Who knows?
08:59Maybe someone here has a thing for ugly girls?
09:01He might even make a match.
09:02My parents exchanged an awkward look.
09:05Too afraid to respond.
09:06Too afraid to refuse.
09:07As her biological parents, they had never even bothered to see my real face.
09:11So at that moment, they were just as clueless as anyone else.
09:14They were terrified that once my mask and sunglasses came off,
09:17the truth would make them a laughingstock.
09:19I took a step back, refusing to let his height intimidate me.
09:22Since the engagement is called off, my appearance is none of your concern.
09:25I just got into Morin.
09:26I have my studies and my career ahead of me.
09:28I'm in no rush to marry.
09:30And my future marriage is none of your business.
09:32Outsider.
09:33Cale's eyes narrowed.
09:34Clearly, no one had ever dared challenge him like this in public.
09:39The people around us stop to murmur.
09:41Their children grow up with every possible advantage,
09:43yet very few ever make it into college.
09:45I heard this girl was raised by her grandmother in the Black Forest.
09:49Her parents never even looked after her.
09:50Doesn't matter what she looks like.
09:52Getting into the number one university, Morin, makes her a genius.
09:57That's incredible.
09:58Hearing the praise, my parents' expressions softened,
10:01and their lips even curled into a faint smile.
10:03Only Vivian and Kyle's faces darkened.
10:06Vivian sidled up to me and dug her fingers into my wrist.
10:09Runt.
10:10Brains can only take you so far.
10:12A girl's face is what opens doors.
10:14If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be hiding behind all that.
10:17Some top plastic surgeons are here today.
10:20Why not take off your mask and let everyone see your face?
10:22We can have them do some adjustments for you, okay?
10:25Vivian's words were sweet, but her hands suddenly shot toward my face.
10:29I instinctively dodged, but that was exactly what she wanted.
10:32Ugly freak.
10:33Let's wash that face and show everyone what you really are.
10:36She hissed the insult in my ear, then used my dodge against me,
10:39and sent me tumbling into the pool.
10:41The impact tore away my hat, sunglasses, and mask.
10:45I floundered, splashing and sinking.
10:47Finally, I scrambled to the edge and pulled myself up, wiping the water from my face.
10:52The crowd went dead silent, save for a few shocked gasps.
10:57Someone screamed.
10:58A ghost!
10:59The crowd recoiled from me in horror.
11:01I looked down at my reflection.
11:02Startled, I had accidentally let my fluffy wolf ears pop out.
11:06My long hair was plastered over my face.
11:08My cap had been swept away by the water.
11:10Only my wet, glistening golden eyes showed through the curtain of hair.
11:14Soaked from head to toe, I must have looked like a drowned rat.
11:17I hauled myself out of the pool.
11:18My sister deliberately gasped.
11:20Oh, I'm so sorry!
11:21I didn't mean to!
11:22I just wanted the specialists to see you so they could help you feel more confident.
11:26I never thought it would cause such a scene and scare everyone.
11:29I glanced at her, saying nothing.
11:30She said she was sorry, but the smug smile tugging at her lips gave her away.
11:34And my parents, unable to even look at me, waved their hands in disgust.
11:38Hurry up and change.
11:40Haven't you embarrassed the Vos family enough at Vivian's party?
11:43Between the cold wind and my parents' icy words, I couldn't stop shivering.
11:47Hugging my arms, I hurried away.
11:50But the whispers followed me like a shadow.
11:52Vivian pressed her lips together, but the corners wouldn't stop twitching.
11:55And walked up to Kale.
11:56Kale, sorry.
11:58Didn't scare you, did you?
11:59We're supposed to blend in with humans.
12:00We've been trained since we were ten never to let our ears or tails show.
12:03I can't believe she still can't control herself at eighteen.
12:05But Kale said,
12:06I didn't get a good look.
12:07Did you see her face?
12:08Her wolf ears were showing.
12:09She was a complete mess.
12:10And with all that hair covering her face, she looked like a female ghost.
12:13But those eyes, they were beautiful.
12:15Really beautiful.
12:16Vivian's smile froze.
12:17I could feel her venomous stare burning into my back as I walked away.
12:20After changing, I knew I couldn't stay here another minute, even as the most insignificant one.
12:24This house had no place for me.
12:25I messaged the resident director.
12:27Hi, I'm dealing with some personal circumstances.
12:29Would it be possible for me to move in early?
12:31I'm happy to help with anything you need.
12:32The resident director was considerate and didn't pry into my special circumstances.
12:36She readily agreed.
12:37Technically, it's not time for early move in yet.
12:39But you can stay in my dorm.
12:40The top bunk is free.
12:41However, you'll need to help me film some instructional videos for my vocal music classes.
12:45I agreed immediately.
12:46Okay.
12:47I'll be there first thing tomorrow morning.
12:49The next day, I packed my things in under a minute, out of politeness.
12:53I went to say goodbye to my parents, but found them entertaining a special guest.
12:57I rarely saw a fawning look on my parents' faces.
12:59But there they were, buttering up this man in the living room.
13:02Mr. Craigward, this youngest daughter of mine has truly inherited our best traits.
13:06She's been trained in acting and singing since she was little.
13:09She's as good as any human starlet.
13:10Vivian has been courted by countless entertainment companies since she was 15.
13:14We held back, wanting to protect her and nurture her further.
13:17Our goal is the same as yours.
13:20You want to make the perfect film.
13:21And we want our daughter to star as your lead, to make a spectacular debut.
13:25But no matter how much they pleaded, Mr. Craigward remained unmoved.
13:28I'm sorry, but I already have my leading lady in mind.
13:30I haven't found her yet, but I've been waiting for her.
13:32My parents' faces showed shock and embarrassment.
13:35Mr. Craigward ignored it.
13:36You should know I've been preparing this film for years.
13:39The reason I haven't started shooting is that I'm waiting for the one I've been dreaming of.
13:44Under Vivian's tearful gaze, father gritted his teeth and asked,
13:47Mr. Craigward, may I ask which starlet it is?
13:50Mr. Craigward shook his head, a look of longing in his eyes.
13:53She's not in the industry.
13:55She's just a girl, somewhere out there.
13:58But the moment I saw her, I knew she was my leading lady.
14:01It had to be her.
14:02He turned on his phone screen.
14:03A photo, grainy and looking a few years old, was set as his wallpaper.
14:07If you just see her picture, you'll understand what I mean.
14:09My parents took the phone, and just one look made them gasp.
14:12Jesus, someone actually looks like this?
14:17No wonder you, a renowned filmmaker who's seen all sorts of beauties, can't forget her.
14:20Even as Vivian pouted and wheedled desperately, my parents couldn't bring themselves to say
14:24another word for her.
14:25Vivian had looked impressive, until someone truly stunning came along.
14:29Before seeing the photo, my parents might have been 90% sure of their chances with Vivian
14:33and their connections.
14:34But after seeing this girl, they felt a rare sense of inadequacy.
14:36They couldn't bring themselves to keep pushing, no matter how shameless they were willing to be.
14:40Vivian bit her lip, glaring at the image.
14:42It's obviously an edited photo, all filtered.
14:47If someone looked like that in real life, they would have been famous already.
14:50How could they be an unknown?
14:51Mr. Cragward, you're just setting yourself up for disappointment.
14:54But Mr. Cragward stared at his wallpaper, enraptured.
14:57No.
14:58This photo is real.
14:59The original.
15:00It was taken by a photographer friend of mine while he was out shooting.
15:03No editing whatsoever.
15:04When I first saw it, I was stunned.
15:06I doubted its authenticity, too.
15:08Then I saw the original file in my friend's camera.
15:11I had to admit the truth.
15:12This girl is a born idol and actress.
15:14She's the only one from my movie.
15:16Vivian's smile thinned.
15:17Her fingers curled around the edge of her sleeve.
15:19Mr. Cragward, I think you're being too idealistic.
15:22Even if the photo is real, it's been four or five years.
15:25She would have changed.
15:26Acne, weight gain, tanning.
15:27Who knows?
15:28When you find her and see she doesn't match the photo,
15:31you'll regret wasting so much time on her.
15:33Mr. Cragward's face darkened.
15:35But he tempered his anger.
15:36Out of respect for my parents.
15:38I don't know if I'll regret it when I meet her.
15:40I only know that if I settle for someone else without finding her,
15:43I'll regret it for the rest of my life.
15:44For ruining what could have been a perfect film.
15:46I'd be letting down my work
15:47and all the fans eagerly awaiting its adaptation.
15:50With that, Mr. Cragward stormed out.
15:52My parents and Vivian turned on me,
15:53their eyes sharp with frustration.
15:56Seeing father's eyes flickered with disgust.
15:59You're going out?
15:59I nodded, moving into the dorms early.
16:01Hearing that,
16:01my parents didn't bother with another word of concern.
16:04Fine, fine, just go.
16:05Good.
16:05At least Vivian gets her dressing room back.
16:07As if saying one more word to me would be a waste of breath.
16:10Runt, did you come out here on purpose to mock me?
16:12Vivian couldn't help but cover her face and wail.
16:14Father patted her head, full of affection.
16:16Don't cry, Vivian.
16:18What right does that ugly freak have to laugh at you?
16:21Good girl, stop crying.
16:22Daddy will get you on a few more shows.
16:24I promise you'll debut as the brightest new star.
16:26Mother held her, cooing.
16:27Exactly.
16:28She can't even show her own face.
16:29What right does she have to judge you?
16:31She's moving out today.
16:32Mommy will take you shopping right now.
16:34We'll buy you new clothes, jewelry, makeup.
16:36We'll fill the whole house, okay?
16:37At that moment,
16:38I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye.
16:39I was simply redundant.
16:40I silently turned and left.
16:43At school,
16:44the resident director picked me up and took me to the dorm.
16:46She handed me a glass of water,
16:48then studied me curiously.
16:49It's so hot.
16:50Why are you all bundled up?
16:51I replied seriously.
16:52It's a habit.
16:53I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
16:55The resident director chuckled.
16:56You sound like a celebrity.
16:57Come on, take it off.
16:59When she saw my face,
17:00her smile vanished.
17:01She stared, eyes wide.
17:03You're right.
17:03Better put it back on before you go out.
17:05Otherwise, every guy on campus will be at my door.
17:07I won't sleep a wink.
17:08I'll be standing guard all night.
17:09Then she slapped her thigh.
17:10Lyra, would you be in the videos for me?
17:12With that face,
17:13my classes will go viral.
17:14After I helped her film a piano and vocal segment,
17:16she was stunned.
17:17Utterly captivated.
17:18Your voice is incredible,
17:20so unique,
17:21and your pitch is perfect.
17:22Lyra, is anyone in your family a musician?
17:24I thought about it.
17:24I suppose so.
17:25Probably a bit of talent inherited from my diva mother.
17:28At 10 p.m., I was ready for bed,
17:30but the resident director let out a piercing shriek.
17:33Lyra, you're a sensation!
17:36The video's only been up for a few hours
17:38and it already has a million likes.
17:40And some are even saying your face is fake,
17:42that you lip synxed.
17:43I'm gonna post the raw, unedited version
17:44and prove them all wrong.
17:45Curious.
17:46I opened the video she shared,
17:47and even my former elementary
17:48and middle school classmates
17:50were coming out of the woodwork.
17:51We can vouch.
17:52That face and that voice are real
17:53because we were her classmates.
17:55She was already breathtaking at 12,
17:57like a heroine straight out of a novel.
17:59I smiled,
17:59put down my phone,
18:00and was ready to sleep.
18:01Then the resident director took a call
18:03and shrieked again.
18:04Lyra, every major entertainment company
18:06in the industry is here.
18:07Dozens of cars are parked at the school gate
18:08and they're all asking for you!
18:10The resident director was thrilled for me.
18:12Lyra, which one do you want to sign with?
18:13I show my head.
18:14I'm not interested.
18:15The resident director gave an awkward laugh.
18:17Lyra, could you go out there for my sake?
18:19The principal just called me personally.
18:21If you don't go,
18:22I won't hear the end of it!
18:23I had no choice.
18:24In my slippers and pajamas,
18:26I went out to handle it.
18:29When I showed up,
18:30bare-faced and in my sleepwear,
18:32the doors of those dozens of vans
18:33burst open and people swarmed out.
18:36Oh my god!
18:37She's even more stunning in person!
18:40Miss Voss,
18:41you were born for this.
18:43Sign with us
18:44and we'll make you a star.
18:46Voices crashed over me
18:47from every direction.
18:47I took a step back
18:48and then a familiar face
18:50pushed through the crowd.
18:51Miss Voss,
18:52I'm from Howell Entertainment.
18:53If you say yes,
18:55I'll offer you the highest tier
18:56contract.
18:56Kale was finally looking
18:57at me properly,
18:58but I couldn't help
18:59but roll my eyes.
19:00I'm a freshman.
19:00I worked hard to get into Morin.
19:02What would I go to your company for?
19:03Kale was stunned
19:04and his assistant interjetted.
19:05Voss ranked it first
19:06in this year's SATs.
19:07Everyone's eyes grew brighter.
19:08Looks, voice, intelligence, education.
19:10She's got it all!
19:11Signing her would be like
19:12finding a gold mine.
19:14Just as they were all
19:15about to surge forward,
19:16Mr. Cragward's voice boomed out.
19:18Hold on!
19:20Let her decide.
19:21Seeing this heavyweight arrive,
19:22everyone stepped back.
19:23Mr. Cragward walked up to me,
19:25visibly moved.
19:25I've been looking for you
19:26for years.
19:27My leading lady.
19:28Don't worry if you want
19:29to focus on your studies.
19:30I won't push.
19:31I've already waited five years.
19:32I can wait four more.
19:33To me, a film is art.
19:34If I'm going to do it,
19:35it has to be the best.
19:36I can wait for you to graduate.
19:39Wait for you to decide.
19:41I'll be here whenever you're ready.
19:43Seeing the crowd,
19:44I knew I had to pick someone
19:45to get back to my dorm.
19:46So, after hearing him out,
19:48I met his sincerity.
19:49I could film during winter
19:50and summer breaks?
19:51Earlier, at home,
19:52Mr. Cragward had faced out
19:53my parents and Vivian alone.
19:54I had liked him then.
19:55He seemed principled,
19:56focused,
19:57and had integrity,
19:57and Mr. Cragward didn't disappoint.
19:59His eyes lit up,
20:00and he immediately agreed.
20:02Deal.
20:02Your schedule is the schedule.
20:03Without you,
20:04this movie isn't happening anyway.
20:05With my agreement
20:06with Mr. Cragward in place,
20:07everyone else left,
20:08disappointed.
20:10I slept soundly.
20:11At dawn,
20:12I put my disguise back on
20:13and went to breakfast alone.
20:14Campus was filled
20:15with people wandering around,
20:17phones out,
20:17live streaming,
20:18apparently looking for something.
20:20Suddenly,
20:20a familiar voice called out,
20:22Runt, come here.
20:23Seeing my mother beckoning me,
20:24I froze.
20:25Did they know everything?
20:26As I shuffled over,
20:27Mother simply held up her phone.
20:29You go to Morin.
20:30Have you ever seen this girl?
20:31I pressed my lips together.
20:32I didn't want to tell them it was me,
20:33but I also didn't want to lie.
20:34Seeing my hesitation,
20:36Vivian clinging to her mother's arm,
20:37laughed.
20:38Mom,
20:38don't make things hard for Rush.
20:41Beautiful people only hang out
20:43with beautiful people.
20:45Someone like Rush
20:46wouldn't even get close
20:47to a girl that stunning.
20:48Father sighed in disappointment,
20:50muttering to himself.
20:52I thought she might finally
20:54be useful for once.
20:55If I could find that girl,
20:56it would be a major score for me.
20:57Double the connections.
20:58Mother scowled.
20:59I'm determined to find her
21:00and take her on as my protege.
21:01I'm getting older,
21:02star,
21:03but she could become a star
21:04across the country,
21:05even around the world,
21:05and carry on my legacy.
21:08Just then,
21:08father took a call.
21:09His expression went pale.
21:12Lyra Voss?
21:14You're saying the girl's name
21:15is Lyra Voss?
21:15My heart tightened.
21:16My parents were already
21:17in front of me,
21:18tense.
21:20Runt.
21:20You don't know her,
21:21but have you ever heard the name?
21:21I gave a wry smile.
21:23Even after all these years,
21:24my parents didn't know
21:25my real name.
21:25They didn't care.
21:26To them,
21:26I was just Runt.
21:27To be summoned
21:28and dismissed at will.
21:29If even you don't know,
21:30then I definitely wouldn't.
21:31Vivian looked relieved.
21:33Runt?
21:34We thought you were
21:35at least good for studying.
21:36Here we are,
21:37needing help finding someone,
21:38and you're useless.
21:39Maybe you should spend
21:40less time studying
21:41and more time on your looks.
21:42Beauty is a girl's
21:43greatest asset.
21:44Without it,
21:45you won't get far.
21:46Though with all that reading,
21:47maybe you'll find some way
21:47to be useful to mom and dad
21:48eventually.
21:49After that,
21:50without a second glance,
21:51they went back to their search,
21:52not knowing that Lyra Voss
21:54was standing right behind them,
21:55watching them leave.
21:57I'd barely gotten rid of them
21:59when Kale showed up
22:00to corner me.
22:00He kept texting, calling.
22:02I'm right outside your school.
22:03Come out for a meal?
22:03Fine, you don't have to
22:04join Howell Fixtures.
22:05I just want to be friends.
22:07Is that okay?
22:07I replied curtly,
22:08Not joining your company,
22:09not being your friend.
22:11Unexpectedly,
22:11the arrogant Kale Howell
22:12was surprisingly patient.
22:13For a beauty on your level,
22:14even harsh words sound pleasant.
22:16Lyra,
22:17I'm getting more and more
22:17interested in you.
22:18Like it or not,
22:19we'll meet again.
22:20Annoyed,
22:21I simply blocked him.
22:22That afternoon,
22:23we did meet again
22:24at the Voss estate
22:25in front of the moon warden.
22:26Vivian wailed through tears,
22:28accusing me.
22:30Rutt!
22:31That moonstone necklace
22:32was worth 500,000!
22:33Mom!
22:34Mom gave it to me
22:35for my coming of age!
22:36You could have anything of mine,
22:37so why did you steal
22:38my favorite piece?
22:41So this was why
22:42Vivian had come to Moren today
22:43and actually complimented me,
22:45saying all that reading
22:46would make me useful.
22:47She had already set this trap
22:48to destroy me,
22:49and she had brought Kale along
22:50to witness my lowest moment.
22:52I didn't take it.
22:53I never saw it.
22:54I said calmly,
22:54the moon warden came out
22:55of the room I had slept in,
22:56holding the moonstone necklace.
22:58It was found under the mattress
22:59you slept on.
23:00Do you have an explanation?
23:01If I had stolen it,
23:02why would I hide it there
23:03instead of taking it?
23:04Vivian's eyes darted.
23:06Runt,
23:07were you planning to take it
23:09the next time you came back?
23:11Or maybe you didn't even
23:12want to take it.
23:12Maybe you just wanted
23:13to take something of mine.
23:15Runt,
23:16I don't want to think badly
23:17of you,
23:17but the evidence is there.
23:18We're sisters.
23:19Why would you do this to me?
23:20At Vivian's tears,
23:21my parents and Kyle
23:22all sided with her.
23:23Cruel words flew at me,
23:24so many I couldn't tell
23:25who said what.
23:26After their verbal attack
23:27and judgment,
23:28I spoke calmly.
23:29I told you,
23:30I didn't steal anything.
23:31A house this big,
23:32isn't there any
23:32surveillance footage?
23:34Vivian shot me
23:35a smug look.
23:37Sister,
23:37who would install cameras
23:38in their own home?
23:39If you hadn't been
23:39so dishonest,
23:40we never would have dreamed
23:41we had a thief in the family.
23:42As Vivian smugly kept
23:44piling accusations on me,
23:45a maid suddenly chimed in.
23:46We do have cameras.
23:47The mistress had me
23:48install them.
23:48She was worried about
23:49this young lady
23:49from the Black Forest
23:50causing trouble.
23:51We put pinhole cameras
23:52in the hallways
23:53and on the stairs.
23:54The moment she acted up,
23:55we were to throw her out.
23:56Mother had them installed
23:57to watch me,
23:57and now they were my alibi.
23:59Vivian's face paled.
24:00Maybe we shouldn't
24:01watch the footage?
24:03We found the necklace.
24:04We're family.
24:05Let's leave Runt
24:06some dignity,
24:07shall we?
24:07I turned to the moonwarden.
24:08She doesn't get a say.
24:10I'm the victim here,
24:12falsely accused
24:12and slandered.
24:13I demand to see the footage
24:14to clear my name
24:15and reveal the truth.
24:17The footage showed
24:17Vivian sneaking in
24:18the night before
24:19to hide the necklace,
24:20then pretending
24:20it was missing
24:21the next day,
24:21and deliberately reporting
24:22the theft to frame me.
24:23The moonwarden glared at her.
24:24Young lady,
24:25you should focus more
24:25on your studies
24:26and your character.
24:26Framing your own sister,
24:27that's just despicable.
24:28My parents' faces were dark,
24:29for once not defending Vivian.
24:30I'm sorry, Lila.
24:31The reported loss
24:31was substantial,
24:32so we brought you in
24:32from school for questioning.
24:34At that,
24:35everyone in the room flinched.
24:36Lyra?
24:36You said she's Lyra Vos?
24:37The Lyra Vos of Morhen?
24:38As my father stammered,
24:39my mother had already
24:40rushed into a storage room.
24:42She emerged
24:42with a bag of unopened
24:43dust-covered letters.
24:44After reading them,
24:45she let out a sharp gasp.
24:47It's her!
24:48She really is Lyra Vos!
24:49My father snatched
24:50the photos of me
24:51taken throughout the years
24:52from her
24:52and examined them
24:53one by one,
24:54afraid of missing
24:54a single one.
24:55His face flushed
24:56with excitement.
24:57Yes,
24:58this is our daughter.
24:59Kale's face went white.
25:00He grabbed my shoulders
25:01and pulled off my disguise.
25:02The moment my face
25:03was revealed,
25:04Vivian's pupils
25:05dilated in shock.
25:06Her nails dug
25:07into her palms
25:08as if she would draw blood.
25:09Her lips trembled,
25:10muttering over and over.
25:13How is this possible?
25:14How can this ugly freak
25:15be her?
25:17Lyra Vos,
25:17why did you do this?
25:19Coming here
25:19to take everything from me?
25:20I'll kill you!
25:21As Vivian lunged
25:22in a rage,
25:23my mother pushed her back hard
25:24and my father slapped her
25:25across the face.
25:26That's enough!
25:27How much more
25:27do you want to torment
25:28your sister?
25:29You ungrateful wretch!
25:31What's the matter
25:31with you?!
25:32Kale stepped in front of me,
25:34shielding me,
25:35coldly threatening my sister.
25:37Don't you dare touch her.
25:38Watching Vivian
25:39break down in tears,
25:40I couldn't help
25:41but feel a wave
25:41of complicated emotions.
25:43When beauty
25:43is the only currency
25:45that matters,
25:45the whole world
25:46bends the knee,
25:47but I no longer cared.
25:49But Kale didn't give up.
25:51Every week,
25:51I got flowers from him.
25:52Every single time,
25:53he went all out
25:54with the theatrics.
25:55He had the Howell family
25:56helicopter deliver
25:57dew-covered roses
25:58to my school.
25:59Then,
25:59he'd show up
26:00in front of me
26:00in a custom suit
26:01with everyone watching.
26:03Lyra,
26:04just give me a chance.
26:06I'm going to be
26:06the alpha of the Howell pack
26:07and I've already decided
26:08you're my Luna.
26:10After enough times,
26:10it got old.
26:11I started finding out
26:12his schedule ahead of time.
26:13Before he showed up,
26:14I'd already be off campus,
26:15leaving him with nothing.
26:16And my parents,
26:17they came looking for me
26:18at school every few days too.
26:20They'd bring all kinds of gifts,
26:21say all the right things,
26:22like they were trying to make up
26:24for the 18 years
26:24they'd missed.
26:25But no matter what they did,
26:27I felt nothing inside,
26:28not a single thing.
26:30When I,
26:31as Mr. Cragward's leading lady,
26:33took the global stage
26:34by storm
26:34and went up
26:35to accept my award,
26:36my parents stood
26:37in the audience,
26:37calling out,
26:38That's my daughter, Lyra!
26:39Baby, we're so proud of you!
26:41I just gave them
26:42a cool glance
26:43and smiled without a word.
26:45Kale had 9,999 roses
26:47laid out for me.
26:48Lyra,
26:49everyone in the Silvermoon clan
26:50knows we were betrothed
26:51from birth.
26:52As long as I haven't
26:53publicly called it off,
26:54you're still my fiancée.
26:56Beside me,
26:57the host asked,
26:58As someone blessed by fate,
26:59you seem to have everything
27:00anyone could ever dream of.
27:02Is there anything
27:02you'd like to say
27:03to such wonderful parents
27:04and such a devoted fiancée?
27:07I smiled.
27:08Nothing.
27:09I just want to say this
27:10to my grandmother.
27:11Some people only love
27:12a daughter for the pride
27:13and prestige she brings them.
27:14Some love a beautiful,
27:15successful shell.
27:16Thank you for loving me
27:17steadfastly, always.
27:18For loving the rut
27:19who has always kicked aside,
27:20not the Lyra of us
27:21standing here radiant
27:22and triumphant today.
27:25So I'm the one that
27:25I'm the one that
27:25I'm the one that
27:25I love you regularly
27:25because of what
27:25you're not as an
27:26in-line,
27:26as an or an
27:26Sous-titrage FR ?
