00:30I know you want to go legit, but without these rackets, what do our thousands of guys do? Starve?
00:36This is not a negotiation. This is an order.
00:38You're destroying the empire we built? Fine! Then don't expect me to hold back!
00:46Damon, go join your father in hell!
00:53If it weren't for you and your stupid arms deal, my dad would still be alive.
00:56Damon, you really think you're walking away from this today?
01:09Kill him! Kill him now! No one leaves here alive!
01:14Boss, go! I got your back!
01:17Put him down!
01:21Chase him!
01:25Stop!
01:43This way! Go!
01:51Fall back! Now!
01:56I want a proper explanation, or I'm calling the cops!
02:02Hope I survive long enough to go with you.
02:06You're hurt?
02:08Don't move, wolf!
02:14You're a vampire, aren't you? Why save a wolf?
02:17I'm a vampire, but I'm a nurse first.
02:19I just stopped the bleeding. If you don't want to die, get to a hospital ASAP.
02:24I can explain this time. I'm in love with you. Is that reason enough?
02:27Never should have saved the wolf.
02:30Boss, you're hit! Let's get you to the hospital now!
02:33No.
02:34What? Your shoulder's bleeding out!
02:37She shot me. Not a bullet. An angel.
02:41Find her.
02:48Dad, Mom, I'm off to work.
02:53I'll drive you.
02:54It's not far away.
02:56I'll have to Cynthia Marilyn.
03:01Bye!
03:02Bye!
03:03Bye!
03:04Bye!
03:05Bye!
03:06Bye!
03:06Bye!
03:10Bye!
03:12Bye!
04:18I'm a cop! I will never marry my daughter off to a gangster!
04:22A cop? Then you should be even more eager to marry her to me.
04:31Look at this place. It's a dump. How much do you make a month as a cop? Can you even
04:36give her a decent life?
04:38But don't worry. Marry her to me, and I'll make your whole family rich overnight.
04:45Over my dead body!
04:47Marriage is not a game. You don't even know my daughter. Besides, you're different species. How can you even think
04:53about this?
04:53Mother-in-law, if I want to, everyone in Hansham is transparent to me. And there's no bad blood between
04:59werewolves and... and vampires anymore.
05:02Then you should know my family has been cops for three generations!
05:07My son died taking down a werewolf gang! How dare you make such an outrageous demand!
05:14You got it wrong. This isn't a demand. It's a notice.
05:20I'll come pick you up in a few days.
05:24Get ready.
05:27I'm already engaged.
05:32Oh yeah? That'll be cancelled soon.
05:36Serena!
05:37Caleb!
05:44This is your fiancé?
05:46Who the hell are you?
05:47As of today, you are single.
05:51That's what happened.
05:53I had no idea he was Damon.
05:58You two need to get married as soon as possible.
06:00I agree.
06:03Will that work?
06:04It's Damon we're talking about.
06:06So what?
06:07I don't believe he'd dare kidnap someone right under a cop's nose.
06:13Don't worry, Serena.
06:15I'll protect you.
06:27You look even more charming
06:30when you're working.
06:39What the hell do you want?
06:41I already know you very well,
06:42and I think it's time my fiancé got to know me too.
06:46Three years ago, you were at war with the Tiger Gang.
06:50My brother.
06:52Andrew died on the spot.
06:53and my dad got shot in the leg.
06:56If you really knew me,
06:58how dare you even stand here.
07:03Andrew's death was an accident.
07:07Since I took over the family, we haven't done anything illegal.
07:10You think that will change the past?
07:11Mrs. Hastings.
07:13The largest real estate, telecom, and oil companies in this city are all mine.
07:19Do you know how many people count on me?
07:23Do you think that makes you a philanthropist?
07:28Mr. Vitarelli!
07:30Thank you so much for your generous donation to our medical fund.
07:34You are such a philanthropist.
07:37This was all Mrs. Hastings' idea.
07:40She's deeply passionate about health care.
07:44You should give her a raise.
07:45Sure!
07:46A five-fold raise!
07:50Sir, may I borrow Miss Haking's for half a day?
07:53No problem at all!
07:57I'm busy.
08:02Serena, you're free to go.
08:06Sir!
08:07You'll be getting a new hospital wing.
08:09Oh, thank you so much!
08:16Put me down!
08:18Put me down!
08:19Put me down!
08:20Put me down!
08:22Hope to see you again!
08:24Put me down right now!
08:27Put me down!
08:31What the hell are you doing?
08:32You're insane!
08:40Don't test my patience.
08:41You're insane!
08:47I have a gift for you.
09:08Do you like it?
09:11You're invading my privacy!
09:21Everything about you is mine.
09:27And everything I have is yours.
09:30See that?
09:31All those buildings belong to me.
09:34If you ask,
09:35I'll give them all to you.
09:37We are the oneodal doesn't grow with you.
09:39We are the oneodal produces.
09:40If you try to run,
09:42I swear,
09:43I'll scour the city to find you.
09:47We are the hundred.
09:50We are the hundred.
09:53We are the ones that zeker need us!
09:55You think you can buy everything,
09:58including love.
10:00You think you can buy everything,
10:07Parce qu'en love, vous êtes vraiment assez fort.
10:10Do you know what you're saying?
10:12Je suis aware.
10:14Vous repulsez me.
10:21Speak.
10:30What was so urgent that you had to call me back?
10:33Damon! Sophia is back in the country!
10:36Sophia?
10:37Who is that?
10:39You met her before, dear.
10:41She's my niece.
10:43Is that so?
10:44I don't really remember.
10:52Damon, you're not getting any younger.
10:54Your father cared most about your marriage before he passed.
10:57Sophia comes from a good family and has a nice personality.
11:01If you two settle down soon, I can finally have an explanation.
11:04Mom, I already have someone I want to marry.
11:08What?
11:10Oh?
11:11Really?
11:13Is...
11:13Which family is she from?
11:16When will you bring her back to meet us?
11:18On the wedding day, you'll find out.
11:30Mom!
11:31Damon isn't your biological son after all.
11:33If he doesn't marry Sophia, won't our family's property be taken advantage of by an outsider?
11:36Be quiet!
11:37Do you want everyone to hear you?
11:44First, go find out who the woman he's talking about is.
11:47I don't believe we can't ruin this marriage.
11:54Are you insane?
11:56Do you know who that is?
11:57Damon, the werewolf alpha who runs this entire city!
12:02I'm not kidding.
12:03I have to marry Serena.
12:05Do you want to get us killed?
12:07Once I'm married to Serena, what can he do?
12:09This is a law-based society.
12:12Why are you so stubborn?
12:15Mom, Serena and I grew up together.
12:18She needs me now.
12:20I have to marry her.
12:22Come back!
12:25This woman?
12:26She could be your plaything.
12:28How can you marry her?
12:30Are you insane?
12:32Since when do you have a say in my affairs?
12:36But she has no background.
12:38And she's a vampire.
12:41If you marry her,
12:43the entire Vitorecki family will be a laughingstock.
12:50I am her background.
12:52Who dares laugh at her?
13:00Who is bold enough
13:03to laugh at her?
13:26What the hell is wrong with you?
13:27It's the middle of the night.
13:28Some people are trying to sleep.
13:30Boss, keep going.
13:38What the hell do you want?
13:42Oh!
13:45Hold still.
13:54Why didn't you answer my call?
13:56I didn't hear it.
13:58Has anyone ever told you you suck at lying?
14:03What the hell do you want?
14:05I'm engaged.
14:06Stop harassing me.
14:08Your fiancé?
14:09He's not even worth my time.
14:10At least he doesn't make me a neighborhood joke.
14:15Marry me.
14:17I'll make sure no one dares disrespect you.
14:19Never.
14:21I love my fiancé and I'll never love you.
14:45You didn't like the gifts I sent you last time.
14:48I picked out some new ones.
15:00Boss, here.
15:09Not everyone can be bought with money.
15:13Boss, should I bring her back?
15:15No.
15:15Miss Hastings has a fiancé.
15:17What if they get married behind your back?
15:24Whoever dares to marry my woman,
15:25his whole family will be run out of this city.
15:32I love you.
15:46I'm putting Serena in your hands.
15:48Take good care of her.
15:56Look at them.
15:57What a perfect match.
15:59This song you taught me?
16:00I've played it 2,000 times.
16:03I dreamed of playing it for you on our wedding day.
16:05Today, that dream has finally come true.
16:24Freeze!
16:25Don't fucking move!
16:38Who the fuck gave you the balls to take my woman?
16:52No!
16:53Don't do it!
16:55Don't do it!
17:00Don't do it!
17:32I didn't fight her. Victoria was the luna. Powerful. Respected. My son would have a better life with her than
17:41he ever would with me. Years later, a pack of rogues attacked our territory. I threw myself in front of
17:48Dominic. The slash meant for his throat tore across my back instead. He said I had earned a reward. I
17:55could choose one of his sons. Raise him myself.
17:58I chose Logan. My blood. My child. I raised him for 20 years. And on the night he was named
18:07Alpha Air, he walked into my room carrying a glass of wine laced with wolfsbane. I couldn't move. The poison
18:14paralyzed me. My wolf hauled inside me. Fought like hell. But it couldn't save me. Logan stood over me and
18:22watched foam spill from my mouth. His eyes were cold.
18:25If you'd left me with Luna Victoria, I'd already be heir. All you ever did was drag me down.
18:32The last thing I saw was his face. No guilt. No hesitation. Just disgust. Then everything went black.
18:41When I opened my eyes again, I was standing in the great hall. Same stone walls. Same firelight. Same five
18:50boys lined up in front of the Alpha's chair. Alpha Dominic sat above them.
18:54Selene. You saved my life. You may choose one of my sons to raise.
18:59My heart slammed. I looked at the line. Logan stood first. Dressed in the fine clothes Victoria had picked for
19:08him. That look in his eyes. Impatience. Barely hidden.
19:13Last time. I was so happy I missed the look in his eyes. Now it was impossible to miss.
19:19My stomach turned. I swallowed the nausea and forced myself to look past him. Past the second son. Past the
19:27third. At the end of the line, below the steps, stood a boy no one looked at.
19:33Finn. Head down. Kyle. The fourth son. His mother, Lyra, had been executed for breaking pack law. After that, no
19:43one wanted him.
19:44The servant said he was cursed. He was treated worse than the lowest omega in the manor. Thrown away. Hated
19:52just for being there. I knew that feeling too well. I took a breath. Raised my hand. Pointed straight at
20:00him.
20:00I want him.
20:01The hall went dead silent. Every head turned toward me. Like I'd lost my mind. Alpha Dominic stared at me
20:09for a long moment. Then he let out a short breath. Almost a laugh.
20:13Kyle? Fine. He's quiet. You're steady. That should work. Take good care of him.
20:22Right there in the hall, he raised me to a beta ranking mate. Small promotion. Still more than I'd gotten
20:29in six years. But I knew the truth. He wasn't rewarding me. He was relieved. I picked the son no
20:37one wanted. When the meeting ended, I walked over to Kyle. He was still standing there with his head down.
20:43Like he still didn't believe I meant him.
20:53I took him back to Birch Cabin. My place on the far edge of the pack estate. A tiny wooden
20:59cabin. Two rooms. A fireplace that smoked every time the wind blew in. Not much. But it was mine.
21:12Kyle. This is your home now. I'll take care of you.
21:16He didn't answer. But when I turned to leave, his fingers caught my sleeve. Tight.
21:24Kyle wasn't dark and difficult like people said. He was quiet. So quiet, sometimes I forgot he was even in
21:32the room. I didn't mind. In this life, I didn't want power. I didn't want the alpha's favor.
21:39I just wanted to stay out of trouble. Raise this boy and die peacefully. When I got old, if he
21:47came to see me once in a while, that would be enough.
21:50Every day, Kyle went to the training yard with the other boys. Combat in the morning. Lessons in the afternoon.
21:57One day, I baked a batch of cookies and took them over. I spotted him right away. He was sitting
22:05alone under a big oak tree, reading. Across the yard, Logan kicked a ball with the other boys around him.
22:12Like planets around the sun, Logan had grown up at Luna Victoria's side. Best clothes. Best food. Best of everything.
22:20Every child in the pack knew which side to stand on. Last time, I dragged him away from all of
22:27it. Made him follow a nobody omega mother. No wonder he hated me.
22:32I sat down beside Kyle and set the box on the stone bench. He looked up. A flicker of surprise
22:38crossed his face.
22:39Hungry?
22:40I opened the lid.
22:42They're fresh. Still warm.
22:44Kyle started to speak, but a sharp voice cut him off.
22:48Why are you here again?
22:49Logan walked over, looking at the cookies like they were trash.
22:53The pack kitchen feeds strays better than that. Stop coming here and embarrassing yourself.
22:58Before I could speak, Kyle stood up. He stepped between us.
23:03Logan! She's your mother! You can't talk to her like that!
23:07Logan let out a mean little laugh.
23:10My mother is Luna Victoria. This woman is nothing.
23:13He flicked a hand at the cookie box.
23:16Take your garbage and go. Stop bothering me.
23:20I pulled Kyle behind me.
23:22You've got that wrong. I'm Kyle's mother. These cookies are for Kyle.
23:28I bent down, picked one up, and held it out to Kyle.
23:32Here. Try one.
23:34Logan's face froze. He'd never imagined I'd choose Kyle over him.
23:38Kyle took a bite. A small smile touched his mouth.
23:42It's good, Mom. Thank you.
23:45I smiled back.
23:46Good. I'll make more tomorrow.
23:49Then I looked at the boys behind Logan.
23:52You boys want one?
23:53They were six.
23:54At that age, a cookie is a cookie.
23:57Two of them were already reaching out.
23:59Don't touch it!
24:00Logan slapped their hands away.
24:02It's garbage!
24:03The kitchen throws out better food than this.
24:06Only losers with no taste would eat that.
24:09Then he glared at me.
24:11Good.
24:12You picked him.
24:13Don't come crawling back when you regret it.
24:16I looked at Logan, red-faced and furious,
24:19trying to act like he didn't care.
24:21I almost laughed.
24:23I promise.
24:24Kyle is my only son.
24:26Everything I have goes to him.
24:29Logan went pale.
24:31He stomped off and yelled at the others.
24:33What are you staring at?
24:35Move!
24:35He ran off.
24:37The other boys scrambled after him.
24:39That night, I tucked Kyle into bed.
24:42I thought he was asleep.
24:44Then he spoke.
24:45Mom, tomorrow, after training,
24:48can you bring cookies again?
24:50Something in me melted.
24:52I will.
24:53The day after.
24:55Every day.
24:57Kyle smiled for real,
24:59then went to sleep.
25:01The next afternoon,
25:03I brought cookies to the yard again.
25:05But the place was too quiet.
25:07Then I saw it.
25:09Kyle stood by the lake.
25:11Four pack guards had him boxed in.
25:13Logan sat on a rock above them.
25:16Hey, little brother.
25:17He pointed at the cold gray water.
25:20My ball fell in.
25:22Go get it.
25:24The lake wasn't deep.
25:26But it was late fall.
25:28That water cut like ice.
25:30Kyle said nothing.
25:32He didn't move.
25:33Logan's smile vanished.
25:35Like a spoiled kid hearing no for the first time.
25:38He jumped off the rock and yards turned toward the trees at the exact same time.
25:42Like they'd seen nothing.
25:44I didn't think.
25:46I dropped the cookies and jumped in.
25:48The cold hit me like a wall.
25:50My muscles locked up.
25:52My legs went numb around Kyle's shaking body.
25:56You pushed him.
25:57He's your brother.
25:59What the hell is wrong with you?
26:20Listening to the ambiguous moans and faint running water over the phone, I smiled bitterly.
26:25My husband Ethan was so cold-blooded, but he had no idea.
26:29The dead weren't my parents.
26:31They were his.
26:31A snake attack at the campsite left his entire family clinging for life.
26:35Only his company had the specific antivenom.
26:38I called him countless times.
26:40He hung up every single one.
26:42Delayed treatment killed them all.
26:44I stared at the five bodies behind me.
26:46Sighed.
26:47By the time I got to the hospital, Ethan's entire family was already on the verge of death.
26:51The doctor pulled me aside.
26:52This species of snake is extremely rare.
26:55The only facility with the specific antivenom is your husband's company.
27:00I called Ethan like crazy.
27:02He rejected every single call.
27:04On the hundredth try, he finally answered.
27:08It's Sophia's birthday tonight.
27:09I'm spending it with her.
27:10Stop being so paranoid.
27:12I kept thinking about his family in the ER.
27:14I swallowed every question burning in my throat and said quickly,
27:18Your mom, your dad, your sister, they were all bitten.
27:20The hospital doesn't have this antivenom.
27:22Your company does.
27:23Please bring it now.
27:24One vial costs over a hundred grand.
27:26Have some self-respect, Sienna.
27:28Your whole family gets bitten and you come crying to me?
27:31What am I, your personal bank?
27:33Take a good, hard look at yourself.
27:35He hung up without mercy.
27:37Then blocked me.
27:37I sat frozen in a hospital chair.
27:39I couldn't make myself believe those words had just come out of my husband's mouth.
27:43He probably didn't even have the patience to listen to what I was saying.
27:47Then my phone buzzed suddenly.
27:48A Chanel boutique alert popped up.
27:50The limited birthday bag my parents had reserved.
27:53Nearly a million dollars in value.
27:55Just picked up by my husband.
27:56I didn't even have to guess.
27:58That bag was on Sophia's arm right now.
28:00Stealing my things to give to the woman he loved.
28:03He'd done it so many times.
28:05Every time I said something, he'd roll his eyes.
28:07You're married.
28:08Walking around with a bag like that just makes you look desperate.
28:10Let Sophia use it.
28:11She's closing a deal.
28:12Don't be petty.
28:12Sophia's basically my sister.
28:14If you love me, you'll support how I take care of her.
28:16If you love me, you'll support how I take care of her.
28:18He put Sophia on a pedestal.
28:20Designer bags on demand.
28:21Sports cars.
28:22A penthouse.
28:22And me, his actual wife.
28:24I couldn't even get a handful of life-saving vials.
28:27What a joke.
28:28I was still typing a message to the boutique when Ethan posted on Instagram.
28:32The most expensive bag for the most important person.
28:35Tonight belongs to us.
28:36Sophia's post followed seconds later.
28:38My night promised to always stay.
28:40Your medicine didn't just save my family.
28:42It saved my heart.
28:44The photo.
28:44The two of them pressed close, smiling.
28:47A vial of anti-venom raised in her hand like a trophy.
28:50While Ethan was spending lavishly on Sophia, his own family was waiting to die.
28:54The ER doors slid open.
28:55The doctor walked out, mask already down.
28:58I rushed over.
28:59Give me a little more time.
29:00I'll get the anti-venom here.
29:01I swear.
29:02There's no need.
29:04All five patients are gone.
29:06I'm so sorry for your loss.
29:08My nose burned.
29:09My chest caved in.
29:10Two hours ago, they'd been laughing.
29:12Now five bodies lay cold in the morgue while they're-
29:14I held back my tears and messaged the boutique.
29:17I never came in to pick anything up.
29:19Please contact the police.
29:20The doctor had mentioned this particular snake was nearly extinct in the country.
29:24Because of that, no hospital stalked the anti-venom.
29:27A little too convenient.
29:28A near-extinct snake in their tent.
29:31Five people dead.
29:32The police took it seriously and moved fast.
29:35They traced it quickly.
29:36Someone had bulk-ordered live snakes online and released them at the campsite.
29:40The suspects were Sophia's parents.
29:42I hoped Ethan wouldn't cry too ugly when he found out.
29:45Ma'am, we have a clear picture of what happened.
29:47But both suspects are currently hospitalized.
29:49We can't bring them in for questioning just yet.
29:52Now I knew why Sophia was holding the serum in that picture.
29:55I kept my face blank.
29:56But the venom's already been treated.
29:58Nothing's stopping you from questioning them now.
29:59He gave me a long look.
30:01Clearly wondering how I knew, but didn't push.
30:03I must have looked too hollowed out.
30:05We'll get to the truth.
30:06After he left, I filed a civil lawsuit on my phone.
30:09Right then, Ethan called.
30:10What the hell is your problem?
30:11I'm your husband, I picked up a bag for you, now you're reporting it stolen?
30:15Are you insane?
30:16One accusation after another.
30:17No pause, no care for anything I was going through right now.
30:20I cut through it.
30:20Cold and quiet.
30:21I never got that bag, Ethan.
30:23You said you picked it up.
30:24Where is it now?
30:25It stretched out long enough to answer the question.
30:28His voice softened.
30:29That calculated shift I knew too well.
30:31We're husband and wife, and everything though shared.
30:34You won't have to knock I'm out out of here.
30:37Sophia just wants this bag to nay her birthday, and I just want to make her happy.
30:42Your husband's card.
30:43Don't be like this.
30:44Absolutely shameless.
30:45The feeling of giving is wonderful, so don't be so stingy.
30:49If you want to buy her something, why don't you use your own money?
30:53Oh right, because you're completely useless.
30:55How dare you say I'm good for nothing?
30:57Are you crazy?
30:58Before, I always watched my words around him.
31:00Always protected his ego like it was something fragile.
31:03Looking back now, his skin was thicker than a wall.
31:06If you're a man, go to the hospital morgue now and see the evil you've done.
31:10They already dead, and I can't save them.
31:13Don't spoil.
31:14Don't my kishin'd.
31:17First, bent cream at your parents.
31:19Don't up their bodies, get my companies for the atophthalmol.
31:21Sophia's parents had an accident, and she is on the verge of collapse.
31:25She needs someone to accompany her.
31:27I laughed, so he thought it was my family.
31:29I'd been planning to give his parents a proper burial as soon as possible.
31:33Instead, I ordered five industrial freezer units.
31:36Per Ethan's request, I sent his entire family to his company.
31:39I'd been home barely ten minutes when Ethan burst in and slapped me across the face.
31:45Sophia's hysterical.
31:46Her parents just got out of surgery, and you're already suing them.
31:48Do you even have a conscience?
31:50At least they're alive.
31:52The people their snakes killed are still lying in those freezers.
31:55Something flickered in Ethan's eyes.
31:56That was my anti-venom.
31:58I give it to whoever I want.
32:00Your parents had no business going camping.
32:03They got bitten.
32:04That's on them.
32:06Sophia's parents are sitting in a hospital being questioned by detectives because of your lawsuit.
32:13Can't you show a little mercy to the living?
32:15Maybe your parents getting bitten was karma for you being so cold-hearted.
32:19Maybe this was just your parents' fate.
32:21If it wasn't a snake, something else would have taken them out.
32:24Your whole family is gone now.
32:27I'm all you have left.
32:28Don't be ungrateful.
32:32Sienna, I know you're hurting.
32:34But the dead are gone.
32:36The living have to keep going.
32:38Sophia is willing to offer compensation.
32:40I'll top it up.
32:41A million dollars total.
32:43That's enough, isn't it?
32:45He said it like he was talking about the weather.
32:47Five lives.
32:48In their eyes, worth a million dollars.
32:50Ethan was spoiled rotten by his parents his whole life.
32:53Thinking about the moment he'd open those freezers and see their faces.
32:56I couldn't help but wear a sorrowful smile.
32:59What's so funny?
33:00Stop playing games.
33:01Will you agree to my terms?
33:02Ethan didn't have the patience to let me finish after all.
33:05I wiped the corner of my eye, still smiling.
33:07Okay.
33:08Transfer it then.
33:09Payment received.
33:10One million dollars.
33:11Ethan had covered the rest.
33:12Almost certainly every dollar of liquid cash his company had left.
33:16He watched me accept it.
33:18I should tell you this morning I signed a formal letter of non-prosecution on your behalf as your husband.
33:23Sophia's parents are already off the hook.
33:25You should be thanking Sophia for being so generous.
33:27Without her, you wouldn't have seen a dime.
33:29Now go tell the police the theft report was in state.
33:32I reached into the nightstand drawer and pulled out the divorce agreement I'd drawn up that morning.
33:37Sign it.
33:38Return my bag.
33:39We're done.
33:39Or I come after you too.
33:41You're divorcing me over this?
33:42I could see the calculation behind the rage.
33:45He needed my father's connections.
33:46But he also thought my father was dead and no longer of any use to him.
33:50Called after him.
33:52Checked his signature carefully.
33:53Everything in order.
33:55Ethan, there's a waiting period.
33:57We're technically still married.
33:59Come with me to your company.
34:00Say goodbye to your family one last time.
34:03We arrived at his company together.
34:05I was certain Ethan's mind was on Sophia.
34:07And he still hadn't heard a word I said.
34:10The basement ran cold.
34:11The chill hit me the moment I stepped in.
34:13Five bodies lay in a row, covered in white sheep.
34:17My company is not a dump.
34:19Mom, Dad, I'm so sorry.
34:21And Ava, Marcus.
34:22What the fuck are you talking about?
34:23Say it again!
34:25If I'm lying, I said, go look for yourself.
34:30He stood there for a long moment.
34:31Then he moved toward the nearest stretcher slowly.
34:34His hands were shaking so badly, he could barely grip the sheep.
34:58Mafia's tradition.
34:59Whoever gives me an orchid marries me.
35:01I stood in the hall with 11 other men, waiting to be chosen.
35:05No orchid tonight.
35:06I'd be forced to marriage her in New York.
35:08Rumors said she burned through a new guy every single night.
35:11One night, one man, then gone.
35:12I had only one way out.
35:14Charlotte.
35:16We grew up together.
35:17She was the Chase family heir.
35:19And I was a casino mogul's illegitimate son.
35:22In this city, only she dared give me that flower.
35:24Last night, I'd asked her for a fake marriage.
35:27Three years was enough to build something for myself.
35:29After that, she could love whoever she wanted.
35:31She'd said yes.
35:32Now she smiled and walked toward me.
35:38I let out my hand.
35:40Then she pressed her orchid into Tyler's hands instead.
35:45I stood frozen.
35:47Let Tyler have his moment.
35:48He's never had one.
35:50Don't worry, no one's arranging anything for you while I'm around.
35:53I watched Tyler take her arm.
35:55They looked like a couple.
35:57I stood alone.
35:58She came back with champagne, laughing.
36:01These people, honestly.
36:02I told them to save you at least one flower.
36:05I looked at the girl I'd grown up beside.
36:07Do you understand what this gala actually is?
36:09She didn't answer.
36:10Charlotte was the only one who would have chosen me.
36:13She chose someone else.
36:15The room kept moving.
36:16I felt very still.
36:18It was over.
36:18Charlotte's expression shifted.
36:20A faint flicker of guilt crossing her face.
36:22She waved Tyler off.
36:24Look, you're used to these events.
36:26But Tyler's never had anything like this.
36:28I just wanted to give him one good night.
36:30Consider it a favor from me.
36:32You're not really upset, are you?
36:33It's one night.
36:34I said nothing.
36:35It's his graduation.
36:36After tonight, I can't sponsor him anymore.
36:38I promised him one memory worth keeping.
36:40Ethan, I'm sorry if I got in the way.
36:41Don't be angry at Charlotte.
36:42I begged her to-
36:43Charlotte caught Tyler's awkward expression and her eyes cooled slightly.
36:45Ethan, it's one flower.
36:47I'll give you another one.
36:49You're more of a rose anyway.
36:51Getting worked up over one orclet isn't like you.
36:52I suppose that tracked.
36:54An orchid meant purity.
36:55It symbolized the acceptance of a family.
36:58A rose.
36:58Passionate.
36:59Showy.
37:00Like a clandestine lover.
37:02The laughter around me grew louder.
37:06A bastard son who follows Charlotte around like a lapdog.
37:10And he thought he'd actually marry into the Chase family.
37:13And that was a Cessus family.
37:15Even the scholarship kid outranks him.
37:18Charlotte silenced them with a glare.
37:20But it was already enough to humiliate me.
37:22Ethan, I'm sorry.
37:24You were born into wealth while I just wanted a memorable night.
37:27Born into wealth?
37:29I'm a bastard son.
37:30Do you have any idea how this family actually treats me?
37:33Tyler froze, startled by me.
37:37My bad.
37:38But I was the only one who caught the cunning flash in his eyes.
37:43It's already done.
37:44Ethan, I'll take you to get changed.
37:45And Ethan, you can head home if you want.
37:47Home.
37:48Where exactly was that supposed to be?
37:51Then they left.
37:52Vanessa Lee appeared almost instantly.
37:54You smell amazing, Mr. Holt.
37:57Charlotte told me to give you an orchid.
38:00I didn't.
38:01I told you stop chasing her and try me instead.
38:04But you never listened.
38:06How's it feel now?
38:08Embarrassing, right?
38:09I knew this woman despised me.
38:11I just needed three years.
38:13I just needed three years.
38:14Three years to build enough leverage to break free from my family's control.
38:17But my stepmother couldn't stand the sight of me.
38:19She was already rushing to throw me out.
38:24Ethan Holt.
38:26If you weren't so pretty, you'd be nothing.
38:28You really think the Chase family is going to protect you forever?
38:33Vanessa, don't touch what's mine.
38:35I thought you picked the scholarship kid.
38:37Why are you still keeping Ethan around?
38:38My business, not yours.
38:42Why didn't you do anything?
38:44I felt nothing but deep, tired disappointment.
38:47Wasn't this what you arranged?
38:49I can look out for you and still talk to other people, Ethan.
38:51I'm not required to stand next to you all night.
38:53But you know what tonight's gala means.
38:55Can we get some drinks?
38:55Is that okay?
38:56Sure, tonight's yours.
38:57Whatever you want.
38:58Whatever it is, we'll talk tomorrow.
39:00I'll come find you.
39:01I almost laughed out loud.
39:02Tomorrow, you'll have to find me in New York.
39:06The shyness he wore earlier was gone.
39:08Replaced by something colder.
39:10You have everything, Mr. Holt.
39:12Do you really need to take this too?
39:13I should never have helped Charlotte choose him for that scholarship.
39:17You grew up with everything you could want.
39:21All I wanted was one night under Charlotte's protection.
39:26I let out a quiet sneer.
39:27You think I had it better than you?
39:29My mother died young.
39:32I was brought back to the Holt house, just a child.
39:35My stepmother looked at me like I shouldn't exist from the very first day.
39:39My father had too many wives, too many children, to care about one more.
39:43I learned early how to read a room, how to make myself useful.
39:47I found Aunt Diana in the margins.
39:49I convinced her to train me, to back me.
39:51I stood in front of her, forcing my hands to stay still.
39:54My father has over 20 children.
39:56Why would I believe a bastard son can beat all of them?
39:59Because I have no weakness.
40:02And I'm willing to fight dirty.
40:04But my time hadn't come yet.
40:07Diana wouldn't move for me.
40:08Not now.
40:09Everyone said my fiancé from the Quinn family was a deadly, poisonous flower.
40:14My family wanted the alliance, but not the cost.
40:16They wouldn't sacrifice a true heir.
40:18So they offered me.
40:20Diana had already heard how the gala ended.
40:22A message arrived.
40:23Figure it out yourself.
40:24I needed a solution.
40:28Well, can you get the orchid back from Tyler?
40:30Just for one night.
40:31I'll return it in the morning.
40:32Charlotte Blink clearly caught off guard.
40:34That's a bit awkward, isn't it?
40:35I already gave it.
40:36Stop trying to take things from Tyler.
40:38The orchid had a gold-trimmed edge.
40:40Custom-made.
40:41There was no replacing it.
40:43The restraint I'd held all night finally snapped.
40:46Charlotte, you promised!
40:47Why did you have to humiliate me tonight of all nights?
40:50Ethan, no one in this city will touch you.
40:53The only person who could ever want you is me.
40:56Everyone knows you're my little shadow.
40:58Her little shadow.
40:59Her lapdog.
41:00I had played that role for years, just to survive.
41:03But hearing her say it so casually, like it meant nothing, it hit harder than I expected.
41:08Don't be angry at Charlotte, Ethan.
41:09Ethan, one night.
41:10Stop being difficult.
41:11Tomorrow he goes back to his normal life.
41:13I gave Charlotte a long, lingering look, then turned and walked out of the gala.
41:17Aunt Diana's car was already waiting outside.
41:20You lost.
41:21Tomorrow you go to New York.
41:22What happens after that is your problem.
41:24I'll come back.
41:24We'll see.
41:45The tank burst.
41:47The wave slammed me across the floor.
41:49Yet my fiancé now held another woman in his arms.
41:52And all of this was because his younger sister Lila and I were caught in a rip current off
41:57Puget Sound.
41:57I was saved.
41:58Lila lost her life.
42:00The Blackwood family thinks it was me who had killed their biological daughter.
42:04Why are you still alive?
42:06You should have been the one who drowned.
42:08You killed my daughter!
42:10Killia tossed my ring, shredded my wedding gown, and agreed to marry Serena.
42:14The next day, coming home from the hospital, I saw Killian slicing our wedding portrait with
42:19a knife.
42:20Serena's moving in.
42:21Time to clear all this trash out.
42:23Serena Vanderbilt, his arranged marriage fiancé.
42:26After throwing all this away, are you gonna kick me out next?
42:30You said you were dying of your illness, didn't you?
42:32Then it's only fitting you go to atone for Lila in death.
42:35My body turned rigid when I heard those words.
42:38Killian Blackwood was the unloved Blackwood's son, raised outside the manor walls from childhood.
42:43I had given this brooding boy next door a single piece of candy.
42:46Because of that one small sweetness, after my parents died in an earthquake, Killian protected
42:51me for 15 years.
42:53Countless days of depending on each other, I fell in love with the man who held me.
42:56At 20, I had written a hundred love letters and confided my longing to my best friend,
43:01Chloe Reed.
43:02Never did I expect Chloe to tell Killian everything.
43:05That night, he made me take out the letters and read them aloud to him.
43:08I'm sorry, I'll never dare to whiber any improper thoughts again.
43:11From now on, I'll t-treat you as my elder brother.
43:14For 15 years, it wasn't that you needed me to raise you, was that I needed your company.
43:19That same year, the Blackwoods came to bring him home, but they wouldn't accept me, because
43:23the Blackwood house could not hold two daughters.
43:26Killian put the messenger on the floor and looked at his father, Arthur Blackwood.
43:30Know her, know me.
43:32I knew how desperately Killian longed to return home, yet he chose to stand by my side, even
43:37at the cost of breaking with his family.
43:39We dated five years before marrying with approval.
43:42His sister Lila despised me.
43:44To ease the tension, Killian brought Lila with us on our coastal wedding photoshoot.
43:49After the photoshoot, I saw Lila in the rip current.
43:52I rushed to save her without hesitation.
43:54I survived, but Lila perished.
43:56The Blackwoods blamed me, saying the adopted daughter had doomed their own child.
44:00Do you think it was my fault too?
44:03You both went into the water.
44:04You survived.
44:05She didn't.
44:06To this family, that's a crime.
44:08I knelt for three days and nights, begging for their forgiveness.
44:11However, all I got was a miscarriage.
44:14That night, I was diagnosed with cancer.
44:16I called Killian.
44:17He thought I was faking sick to trick him.
44:19To punish me, he burned my 1,999 love letters right in front of me, then froze my bank card.
44:26What burned to ashes was not only my true love, but also my desire to survive.
44:31That night, Killian stumbled home drunk, demanding something to sober up.
44:35When I passed him the hangover soup, I spotted my favorite lemon tarts on the table.
44:39He shoved me away.
44:42Put those down.
44:43They're for Serena.
44:44What are you doing so close?
44:46Still trying to lure me?
44:47You're drunk.
44:49I'm making you sobering soup.
44:51Sorry, I was too drunk.
44:53I mistook you for Serena.
44:54He got up and pushed me away.
44:56He'd never been so cold to me, nor so rough.
44:59Killian didn't spare me a glance.
45:00Walked upstairs and slammed the door.
45:03Everything changed the day Lila died.
45:05I knew he hated me for living, yet I could do nothing.
45:07The light was still on in Killian's room.
45:09I knocked softly.
45:10Coming to a man's room this late, do you have any sense at all?
45:13We're broken up.
45:14I want to move out.
45:15Stop you from spouting nonsense.
45:17You must stay here until I marry Serena.
45:19Can I at least move to the lower level?
45:22It's up to you.
45:24I turned and walked back to my room in silence.
45:27I didn't understand his anger.
45:30Lila was gone forever.
45:31How could I possibly live here in peace?
45:34This forced stay gave me time to ease myself into preparing to leave.
45:38The next morning, passing through the living room, I heard Killian talking on the phone with Serena.
45:43Killian caught sight of me suddenly, then ended the call.
45:47Where are you going?
45:48I'll drive you.
45:49I froze.
45:50Before I could answer, he was already walking out to the garage.
45:53He leaned on the horn.
45:54Are you getting in or do you want me to carry you?
45:56I can't sit up front.
45:58What?
45:58Serena said that's her seat.
46:00Even siblings don't get it.
46:02That's not.
46:02Serena's voice broke through the phone in his hand.
46:05Kilton, where are you going?
46:07Don't let any other girl take the passenger seat.
46:09That's mine.
46:10Even your sister-
46:11Killian switched to a different car.
46:13Thank you.
46:13Something unnamed moved through him.
46:15What are you going to do?
46:16I didn't answer.
46:17Killian didn't push.
46:18When Serena called, he laughed and softened, turning into someone I barely recognized.
46:23I just bought us matching pajamas.
46:25I'll model them tonight.
46:27As their words grew bolder and more explicit, Killian pulled into the emergency lane.
46:31Get out.
46:32Serena's waiting me.
46:55A destitute stripper who suffers from bills.
47:02Three months ago, I'd been planning to audition for the New York Ballet Company.
47:05Now I was applying glitter to my skin for men who would tuck dollar bills into my G-string.
47:10Three months ago, the wedding day of me and a man I had never met.
47:13Ethan Pacheco.
47:14A marriage I wanted no part of.
47:16I had slipped away while the guests were arriving, needing a moment to breathe, to think.
47:21I had wandered aimlessly until I heard sounds coming from one of the guest bedrooms.
47:24Although the man had his back to me, I knew he must be my fiancé who I had never met.
47:29Without twice thought, I drived away from the estate.
47:32Away from Ethan Pacheco and the future that had been decided for me.
47:35I ended up at a bar downtown in the late night, drowning my sorrows in tequila shots.
47:40That's when he appeared beside me.
47:49Bad day?
47:53The worst.
47:59I'm Ethan.
48:03Of course you are.
48:05I, uh, I'm running away from one Ethan tonight.
48:09I don't need another.
48:11I had laughed then, a bitter, hollow sound.
48:14The funny thing was, with all the drama going on, I still didn't know what my fucking fiancé
48:18looked like.
48:19But this guy had been charming, attentive, and I'd been vulnerable, hurt, and increasingly
48:24drunk.
48:25When he suggested we get a room at the hotel next door, I hadn't said no.
48:43With nothing but a lingering hangover, and the crushing realization that I couldn't go home
48:48again, not to face my father's disappointment.
48:50I'd disappeared, cutting off contact with everyone from my old life.
48:54My savings hadn't lasted long.
48:55Now I had to dance in a bar to earn money.
48:57The bar had been booked out by the owner tonight.
48:59He was going to hold an important party in the VIP room.
49:05Those eyes, almond-shaped, hazel with flecks of gold, exactly like, no, oh god no, this
49:12can't be happening.
49:13That night at the bar, my one-night stand as my boss and ex-fiancé, his eyes met mine,
49:18and the world stopped spinning.
49:23Stop staring at the boss, are you crazy?
49:28I immediately dropped my gaze.
49:30The tiny, sequined outfit left little to the imagination, but it was better than being
49:34completely naked.
49:36I needed this job.
49:37Rent wasn't going to pay itself.
49:38Did he recognize me?
49:40Shouldn't your older brother be running this meeting?
49:43I can't imagine your father Henry's crazy enough to let a 23-year-old handle business
49:48this magnitude.
49:52Everyone turned to gauge Ethan's reaction, the tension thick enough to cut with a knife.
49:58Care to guess why I'm the heir while my big brother works under me?
50:02You're not in any position to question my capabilities.
50:05The man's face reddened.
50:06He wisely kept his mouth shut.
50:08The meeting dragged on, numbers and threats mixing with the heavy beat of the music.
50:13I felt increasingly lightheaded.
50:15The room started to spin.
50:16Or was I the one spinning?
50:21I landed hard on the floor, right in front of the gathered crime family bosses.
50:25Is this how you dance, you worthless slit?
50:28Ruining our evening with your amateur bullshit?
50:31I looked up to see an ugly older man in the corner.
50:34He pulled out a thick wad of cash, throwing it on the ground.
50:37Bills scattered across the floor like fallen leaves.
50:40If you don't want to lose those pretty legs of yours,
50:43crawl over here and give me a proper lap dance.
50:47And don't stop until every piece of that costume is on the floor.
50:55Bills harmed by the white coat.
