00:00He never wanted me as his Luna.
00:02Then I finally gave up and decided to leave.
00:04And a voice came from behind me.
00:06Don't get in the car! Don't go!
00:09What? Something else?
00:11No.
00:11But when I turned around, that voice was back.
00:14Should I beg her to stay?
00:17I was thinking...
00:18Thinking what? About staying, right?
00:20Just say you'll stay!
00:22Same voice. I knew it was Lucian's.
00:25But he was standing right there, lips not moving at all.
00:28Wait, can I hear what he's thinking?
00:30To test it, I spoke again.
00:32I can't remember. Is there anything else you want to say to me?
00:36I... never mind. I can't take her freedom away.
00:40It's real. I can actually hear his heart.
00:43I was about to push a little more, but Sergafina walked over.
00:46She's the Morvain Pack Alpha's daughter, and the best werewolf doctor alive.
00:50The annual wolf moon was three days away,
00:52and Alpha's senses, hunger, all of it goes through the roof.
00:56For six years, Sergafina was the one keeping an eye on Lucian.
01:00Go on. Don't worry.
01:01I'll take good care of Lucian during the wolf moon.
01:03Her. Again.
01:04Last year, she screamed outside my door all night.
01:07The wolf moon didn't kill me. She nearly did.
01:10Lucian, you can't just tough it out alone again this year.
01:13Aren't there suppresses?
01:15Six years straight on suppresses. Your body's built up a tolerance. This year, you have to bond with someone who
01:21can handle an Alpha's power. It's the only way you'll survive. She paused, glanced at me, like she was weighing
01:27something. If someone really has to stay, I can help you. At least I'm a werewolf. Eleanor has no wolf
01:33in her. She'd never survive a feral Alpha.
01:36Bring the suppresses. As usual.
01:39Who asked her for help? Six years guarding my door, and she thinks she's my Luna already? If she dares
01:44walk in, I'll throw her out myself!
01:46For seven years, I was sure this man hated me. Sure he'd make Serafina his Luna sooner or later.
01:53Everyone said Lucian and I were just a loveless marriage between two packs, and I took after my human mother.
01:58I never shifted. Not once.
02:00But if Serafina had never even been inside his bedroom, how much else did I get wrong?
02:07Take my bags back inside. I'm not leaving today.
02:09Suit yourself.
02:10My owner's staying. No lying awake all night missing her.
02:16The next morning, I went to the tallest shelf, hoping to find something on mind reading.
02:22I reached for the ladder, and that familiar voice slipped into my ears.
02:27A ladder? Did you forget you have a husband to order around?
02:30I looked at Lucian. Same ice-cold face, eyes glued to his book.
02:35Lucian?
02:36Speak.
02:37Get me that book on the top shelf.
02:39You called me over for that?
02:42She called for me. Slow down. Don't walk too fast. It'll look obvious.
02:46The shelf was three steps away. He walked like he was patrolling his territory.
02:50He handed me the book. I didn't take it. I reached up and brushed the hair off his forehead.
02:57Something else?
02:58Touch me again. Just once.
03:00I bit back a smile, pulled my hand away, and took the book.
03:04Your hair was a mess. Thank you.
03:08That is it. I should move the books higher. Then, she'd have to call me again.
03:13Never mind. I'll read it tomorrow. I'll get the ladder myself from now on. I won't keep bothering you.
03:19Suit yourself.
03:20That ladder is so high. What if she falls? It won't kill you to say my name.
03:25Fighting a green, I handed the book back to him. Then, put it back for me.
03:32So much trouble.
03:34Tomorrow, I am moving the whole row to the top too high for any ladder.
03:37By now, I was almost certain. My husband, who hadn't touched me in seven years, had a lot more going
03:44on in his head than I thought.
03:45That night, the Ashbury Estate held its annual charity gala.
03:49The band had barely started when Serafina walked up to Lucien and held out her hand.
03:55Lucien, dance with me.
03:57Everyone was waiting for him to take it. He looked right past her, at me.
04:01Still sitting there? She's stealing your husband in front of everyone, and you're still drinking?
04:07I took a slow sip on purpose.
04:10Eleanor, just try giving me away to her.
04:13I nearly choked on it. For seven years, I thought I was the unwanted one in this marriage.
04:17But now, it looked like Lucien cared more than I did. About whether I cared at all.
04:22I set down my glass and walked up to them.
04:25Serafina's hand was still out, her smile full of confidence.
04:28Everyone was waiting to watch the trophy wife humiliate herself.
04:31I held out my hand to him.
04:33May I have this dance with my husband?
04:37Serafina's hand was still hanging in the air.
04:39Lucien walked right past her and took mine.
04:42Yes.
04:43She actually came to me.
04:44Stay calm, Lucien. Don't screw this up.
04:47He led me onto the dance floor.
04:49One hand on my waist, one holding mine.
04:52He never once looked Serafina's way.
04:55She had to grab a glass off a waiter's tray to hide her empty hand.
04:59My Eleanor smells so good.
05:00She is gorgeous tonight.
05:02Is her neckline lower than usual?
05:04Don't look.
05:05Okay, one more look.
05:07Hiding a smile, I used a turn to lean a little closer into him.
05:10Careful.
05:11That was close.
05:13I almost kissed her.
05:14If she leans in again, I won't sleep tonight.
05:17I looked up and leaned in even closer.
05:20Feeling hot?
05:23The wolf moon's coming.
05:25Hold it together.
05:26Seven years.
05:27Don't blow it over one dance.
05:29So he didn't want to keep his hands off me.
05:31He was barely holding on.
05:33After the gala, Serafina came after us fast.
05:36Lucien had turned her down, but she didn't look embarrassed at all.
05:39To her one scrap of dignity from my husband didn't change the fact that I wasn't wanted.
05:44It was one dance.
05:46You don't actually think it means anything.
05:49I never said it did.
05:51The wolf mine is in two days.
05:53And Alpha's instincts don't hide.
05:55And this year especially, he has to bond with a partner.
06:00You don't even have a wolf.
06:01When it comes down to it, do you really think Lucien will let you into his bedroom?
06:06She laughed as she said it.
06:07For six years, Lucien picked suppresses over ever touching his own wife.
06:11Everyone believed he simply didn't want me.
06:13So Serafina was sure she'd be the one bonding with him that night.
06:17That confidence on Serafina's face.
06:20I'd seen it many times before.
06:23Lucien used to bring Serafina to werewolf family dinners.
06:26I thought he was reminding me of my place.
06:28So I told him, sincerely,
06:30Serafina grew up with you, and she's a werewolf doctor.
06:32She really is a better fit for your Luna.
06:35Back then that memory just made me cringe.
06:37Tonight, I heard the other side of it.
06:39What did she say to Eleanor this time?
06:41Why isn't Ellen even a little jealous?
06:43I brought Serafina those dinners just to make her jealous.
06:45And she goes and says we're a great match.
06:48A great match!
06:49She and I are the match.
06:50But she only married me to seal a pack alliance.
06:53That night, seven years ago, she saw my wolf eyes and fangs and went pale.
06:57The second I touched her, she flinched.
06:59She must not like me.
07:00I froze.
07:01Seven years ago, I only pulled back because he got too rough and it hurt.
07:04After that, I assumed Lucien regretted touching me.
07:07All these years, I waited for him to come closer, and he thought I was afraid of him.
07:11I smiled at Serafina.
07:13Then good luck on Wolf Moon Knight.
07:14Don't worry.
07:16No one knows better than me what a feral alpha needs.
07:19In Serafina's mind, if Lucien chose her that night, the Luna seat would be hers soon enough.
07:25Too bad Lucien had no plan to grant her wish.
07:27Where does she get the nerve?
07:29All I think about is getting into my wife's bed.
07:31Problem is, Eleanor probably doesn't even want me.
07:34How do I get her to stay in my room on Wolf Moon Knight?
07:38That night, Lucien was worse than anyone expected.
07:41Serafina barely opened his bedroom door before he threw her out.
07:45Get out!
07:46The drugs aren't holding anymore, Lucien.
07:48Let me help you.
07:49I said, get out!
07:52Serafina backed out, face dark.
07:54And then Lucien saw me.
07:56Eleanor.
07:57What are you doing here?
07:58Go back!
07:58I just came to check on you.
08:00You've checked.
08:01Now leave!
08:02He was so harsh, my temper flared.
08:04I turned to go.
08:05Don't come back.
08:06I can't control it.
08:07I'll hurt her.
08:08She is really leaving.
08:10Fine.
08:11At least she won't get hurt.
08:12I stopped.
08:13Why does she always do as she is told?
08:15Same as seven years ago.
08:16I let go once, and she never came back.
08:19I turned and walked back.
08:20Serafina blocked me.
08:22He just told you to leave.
08:24He hates you.
08:25That's between me and my husband.
08:27I pushed the bedroom door open.
08:29Everyone in the outer room turned to stare.
08:31To them, I was the wife who got kicked out and came crawling back anyway.
08:34They were all waiting to see how Lucien would humiliate me.
08:37Lucien's eyes had gone fully gold.
08:39Why did you come back?
08:41Do you really want me to go?
08:43Eleanor, if you stay, you could get hurt.
08:45Tell her to go.
08:46If she says no, I'll let her walk out.
08:48I walked up to him and put his hand on my waist.
08:50His hand tightened in instantly.
08:53I'm not leaving.
08:56Are you sure you can still walk away?
09:00I'm sure.
09:01A second to later, he leaned down, about to kiss me.
09:05His arms were rigid, but every time his grip on my waist tightened, he pulled it back.
09:13Push me away if it hurts.
09:14Slow down.
09:15She isn't a wolf.
09:16I scared her off once already.
09:18Don't hurt her again.
09:19He was even afraid I'd push him away.
09:22I held his face so he'd hear me clearly.
09:26Lucien, I'm not staying out of pity or duty.
09:28Then why?
09:29Because I want to be with my husband.
09:31He stared at me for a few seconds, hand frozen at my waist.
09:34She wants me.
09:36Does she really want me?
09:37I stopped letting him guess.
09:38I tilted my head up and kissed him.
09:41His kisses moved from my mouth to my throat.
09:43His fangs touched skin, then stopped.
09:46No mate mark tonight.
09:47You don't want to.
09:48I do, so badly.
09:50It is driving me crazy.
09:51Staying tonight, part of that is the wolf moon talking.
09:54A mate bond is forever.
09:55I want you to choose it clear-headed and willing.
09:58Then no mark, but everything else is fine.
10:01Eleanor, you'd better know what you're saying.
10:02You talk too much.
10:04I pulled him back down and kissed him.
10:05Seven years late, but we finally had our wedding night.
10:11At dawn, I coughed once, and Lucien woke beside me.
10:14He got up, poured warm water, and held it to my lips.
10:18Easy.
10:19Does anything hurt?
10:20Let me see.
10:24He lifted the blanket for one look, then fumbled it back down, ears burning red.
10:28Damn, marks all over her waist.
10:30I should have been gentler.
10:32Not my fault.
10:33She sounds so sexy saying my name.
10:35Stop thinking about it.
10:36Keep this up, and neither of us leaves this bed.
10:39I nearly choked on the water laughing.
10:43Serafina's voice rose outside the door, complaining to the pack members and elders who'd just arrived.
10:48Last night she insisted on going in.
10:50I couldn't stop her.
10:51Who knows what went on in there?
10:52Lucien hates her.
10:53What if his wolf took over and he hurt Eleanor?
10:56I'm going in to check.
10:58Serafina had called everyone here on purpose, to watch me fall on my face.
11:03Before she could touch the door, Lucien was the first to slip on his coat and open the door.
11:07I stretched leisurely, slow and easy.
11:10Serafina's eyes landed on the marks on my collarbone.
11:13Her tray tipped, bottles everywhere.
11:15Why is she in your bed?
11:16My wife, in my bed.
11:18Problem?
11:19I couldn't hold in a cough.
11:20Lucien spun around to pat my back.
11:23Then let me run your post-wolf moon exam.
11:25It's always been me.
11:26Anything you need, say it at the clinic.
11:29This is Eleanor's in my bedroom.
11:31Don't bring a crowd to our door again without an invitation.
11:33Serafina's smile slipped.
11:34She looked to the butler, who had already stepped aside to clear the hall.
11:38She forced the corner of her mouth up and had no choice but to follow.
11:43I went to my room to change.
11:45Lucien followed.
11:46She is changing.
11:48Should I leave?
11:49Then again, I saw everything last night anyway.
11:52Lucen, grab me a hair tie from the nightstand.
11:55He crouched down to look.
11:56The second he opened the drawer, a signed document slid out.
12:01Divorce papers?
12:03I signed them the day I planned to leave.
12:06But then came his thoughts, the wolf moon, the gala, and I forgot all about them.
12:10Weren't you just going back to Rosendale for a few days?
12:13I was.
12:14I wasn't planning on coming back.
12:16And now, do you still want to divorce?
12:19So, she really was done with me.
12:21I don't regret last night.
12:23I was happy.
12:24But that doesn't erase seven years of being ignored.
12:26Or seven years of everyone laughing at me.
12:29Ignored?
12:29When did I ever...
12:30And in that moment, it hit him.
12:32He'd been hurting me for seven years without knowing it.
12:35I told him, one by one, the worst moments of those seven years.
12:39The disgusted looks from everyone in the estate.
12:43Seraphine on his arm at galas, smiling like the lady of the house.
12:46He opened his mouth and found nothing to say.
12:49I thought you hated those events.
12:51I thought you liked the quiet.
12:53Did you ever ask me?
12:56Lucen went silent.
12:57It was always, I thought.
12:59He never once asked what I wanted.
13:01Lucen, a marriage can't run on guesswork.
13:04If you didn't love me, you should have told me seven years ago.
13:07Not left me here as the joke everyone could trample.
13:09On our wedding night, you hurt me.
13:11I flinched once.
13:12And you moved to the study and never touched me again.
13:15So I believed you regretted marrying me.
13:17That you hated me.
13:19No.
13:20I thought you were scared of me.
13:21I was afraid if I got closer, you'd hate me more.
13:23So I just...
13:25He stopped mid-sentence.
13:26He heard it too.
13:27There it was again, I thought.
13:29The divorce papers crest in his hand.
13:32His eyes slowly went red.
13:34Then suddenly he pulled me in, held me tight, chin on my shoulder, and didn't move for a long time.
13:40I'm sorry, Edelon.
13:42I'm sorry.
13:43I left her alone and miserable for seven years.
13:47I felt a spot of damp on my shoulder.
13:50The most feared Alpha in the North, holding his wife one morning, crying like a child.
13:56I raised my hand and patted Lucian's back.
13:59When we pulled apart, he'd wiped it away.
14:02Only his voice was still rough.
14:04If you still want the divorce, I'll sign.
14:06Money, land, I'll give you everything.
14:09That's what you want to say.
14:10No.
14:11I want to beg you to stay.
14:14Say it.
14:15Is one sentence really that hard?
14:17So much in his head, and not one honest word for me.
14:20I was crushed and about to walk out when he caught my wrist.
14:25Can you give me a little more time?
14:28To do what?
14:29Ask you every question I never asked.
14:31Take you everywhere I never took you.
14:33I want to keep you.
14:35If you still want to leave at the end, I'll sign.
14:38Best case, she tears those stupid papers up herself.
14:42I looked at him.
14:43This man had probably never bowed to anyone in his life.
14:48Okay.
14:50Breakfast wasn't even over when a lawyer from Rosenville delivered an official letter.
14:55Before I left, I hadn't just signed divorce papers.
14:58I'd also authorized a filing to dissolve the PAC Alliance.
15:02Under PAC Alliance rules, once a filing is accepted, there's a 15-day withdrawal window.
15:08If I don't withdraw within 15 days, the Alliance dissolves on its own, even without a signed divorce.
15:15Lucian read the letter top to bottom, and stopped on the date.
15:18The clock's already running.
15:20Today's day one.
15:22Can I withdraw it?
15:23Only I can.
15:25I thought he'd at least say the rule was unfair.
15:29Instead, he poured me a glass of milk.
15:31His hand was shaking.
15:35Then let's eat breakfast first.
15:3715 days.
15:38I have to make it up to her.
15:39Make her want to stay.
15:41He didn't look at me when he said it, just stared at the milk like he was declaring war.
15:46I looked down at my eggs, fighting a smile I couldn't hide.
15:50Fine, Lucian.
15:51I'll give you 15 days.
15:53He just asked where I wanted to go that afternoon.
15:56When a name I hadn't heard in years came from the doorway.
16:00Ellie.
16:03Theodore stood in the doorway, still cold from the road.
16:06He's the Blackwood Pack Alpha, and the friend I grew up with.
16:09My father knew the withdrawal window had opened, so he sent him to come get me.
16:13He set a key down in front of me.
16:15Your father got you a new house.
16:16When are you leaving?
16:17I'll drive you.
16:18I haven't even started winning her back.
16:20And someone's here to steal my wife.
16:22And who gave him the right to call her Ellie?
16:24I never have.
16:26I want to stay a few more days.
16:27Okay.
16:28Then can I stay with you a few days?
16:30He paused and looked at Lucian.
16:32Mr. Lucian, is that all right?
16:35If not, I'll take a hotel.
16:36Be my guest.
16:37We have plenty of rooms.
16:39It's not all right.
16:40Not even close.
16:42What are you grinning at my wife for?
16:43Got nice teeth?
16:45Down the hall, Serafina caught the tension between the three of us.
16:49Butler, who is that man?
16:51A childhood friend of the lady.
16:53She didn't push further.
16:55She picked up the landline and called the Morvain family steward.
17:01Look into Theodore for me.
17:04What was he to Eleanor before?
17:07At lunch, Theodore picked the olives out of his plate and gave them to me one by one.
17:12He used to steal mine when we were kids.
17:13Never touched your own.
17:15She likes olives.
17:16Seven years married and I never knew.
17:18Remember this.
17:19Remember all of it.
17:21Lucian glanced at his salad and swapped the whole plate to me.
17:25My heart went soft.
17:26So I picked up his coffee and sipped from the exact spot his lips had touched.
17:30That is my cup.
17:31Does she know?
17:32I put it back and turned the rim toward him on purpose.
17:35He looked at me, then bent down and drank from the same spot.
17:39She absolutely did that.
17:40On purpose.
17:41Theodore pretended not to notice and mentioned he'd take me to pick up what my father ordered.
17:46I'll drive you.
17:47Aren't you busy?
17:48Not today.
17:48My wife's about to leave.
17:50Who cares about busy?
17:54As we were heading out, Serafina showed up.
17:57So this is Theodore.
17:59I only just heard Eleanor wrote you a love letter at 17.
18:03A love letter?
18:04She never told you?
18:06Well, it was ages ago.
18:07You don't mind, do you?
18:08They grew up together.
18:10Being close is only natural.
18:11She covered her mouth like she'd slipped.
18:14A perfectly innocent past twisted into some dirty secret.
18:18That letter was returned the same day.
18:20Theodore didn't think a wolfless girl fit his pack.
18:22Please tell the rest of it, too.
18:24That was my mistake back then.
18:26What happened at 17 isn't worth minding.
18:28I suppose.
18:29No explosion from Lucian.
18:31Serafina nodded, deflated,
18:33and watched us leave.
18:36Theodore held the door for me
18:37and moved toward the back seat.
18:39But Lucian's hand was already on the other side.
18:42Mr. Theodore,
18:43the front seat has a better view.
18:45The back seat is mine.
18:47So is the person next to it.
18:49Sorry, force of habit.
18:51Ellie and I used to whisper back here as kids.
18:54I get it.
18:55But my wife likes leaning on me.
18:57She'd be uncomfortable with anyone else.
18:59Theodore looked at him for two seconds,
19:01laughed,
19:01and got in the front without a word.
19:05Lucian sat close to me
19:07and stared at the same page of a document the whole way.
19:10I pulled a necklace from my bag and held it up to him.
19:14Honey, put this on me.
19:17The paper slid right off his lap.
19:20What did she just call me?
19:22Say it again.
19:24No, necklace first.
19:26Don't let your hands shake.
19:27He fastened the clasp.
19:29His fingers lingered at the back of my neck,
19:31so close to where a mate mark goes.
19:33Still empty here.
19:34In fifteen days,
19:35will it still be mine?
19:39When we got back,
19:40the butler was waiting in the hall with an invitation.
19:43The Ashford Pack's core dinner was in three days.
19:46For seven years,
19:47those invitations only ever went to Lucian and Serafina.
19:50Sir, the invitation,
19:52should I address it like last year to you and...
19:54The second one goes to Eleanor.
19:55The butler blinked,
19:57then handed it to me.
19:58I held the invitation
20:00and thought of the gown buried in my closet,
20:02waiting seven years,
20:04worn zero times.
20:05Will you come with me, milady?
20:07I'd love to.
20:11That evening,
20:12Theodore brought up the old letter in the garden.
20:15Eleanor,
20:16I owe you an apology.
20:18Back then I believed an Alpha's Luna had to have a wolf.
20:21You had none.
20:22I was afraid my father would object,
20:24afraid the pack would say I chose wrong,
20:26so I turned you down.
20:27It was years ago.
20:28For you,
20:29not for me.
20:31If in 15 days you still decide to leave Lucian,
20:33I want to try again,
20:35court you properly.
20:37Behind us,
20:38a door clicked softly.
20:40Lucian stood behind the doorway,
20:42holding the shawl I'd left on the sofa.
20:45Lucian didn't stay to hear the rest,
20:47or maybe he didn't dare.
20:50I found him in the study,
20:52hunched over a page.
20:54When he saw me,
20:54he fumbled it into a ball.
20:56Then he pretended to be busy.
20:57Where's my pen?
20:58In your hand.
20:59He froze,
21:00looked at the pen,
21:01and turned red from his ears down to his neck.
21:04About what he said,
21:05what do you think?
21:06You heard it,
21:07didn't you?
21:08Only the last line.
21:09Of course,
21:10it had to be that one.
21:11I couldn't help laughing.
21:12Laughing again?
21:14Lately,
21:15every time I think something,
21:16she seems to know.
21:17I pretended not to hear,
21:18and tidied his desk.
21:20Eleanor,
21:21if you can really hear me,
21:22touch your wedding ring.
21:24My fingers found the ring
21:25before I could stop them.
21:27By the time I pulled back,
21:28it was too late.
21:31The study went dead quiet.
21:34Lucian stared at me.
21:36Confusion,
21:37then disbelief,
21:38then the stiffness of a man about to die.
21:40You can hear my thoughts.
21:42I can.
21:43Since when?
21:44The day I packed my bags to leave.
21:47He shut his eyes and covered half his face.
21:49Then everything I said,
21:51in the study,
21:52at the gala,
21:52on wolf moon night.
21:54Not a single word missed.
21:56I'm done for.
21:58That one too.
22:00His ears went scarlet.
22:02I was holding it in,
22:03but the look on his face broke me.
22:05I burst out laughing.
22:07He peeked through his fingers and just gave up.
22:09Can I request
22:10that you forget a few parts?
22:13Which parts?
22:14He opened his mouth.
22:15Nothing came out.
22:17All those thoughts about clinging to me,
22:19begging to be touched.
22:20He couldn't say a single one out loud.
22:23I smoothed out the crumpled page on his desk.
22:25A half-written letter.
22:27Messy,
22:28crossed out,
22:29rewritten.
22:32It was a love letter.
22:33Enough sweet words to fill seven years
22:36and a plea for me to stay.
22:37By the end,
22:39my nose stung.
22:39It is not finished yet.
22:41Don't throw this one away.
22:42It's mine.
22:43He was quiet for a long while,
22:45then looked at me.
22:47Come a little closer.
22:49I took a step.
22:51Closer?
22:52One more step.
22:54Right beside his chair.
22:56So that is how you get her to come.
22:59If I want to kiss her right now,
23:00does she know that too?
23:02I do.
23:03But the important things
23:04you have to say out loud.
23:06He took my hand
23:07and pulled me onto his lap,
23:08thumb rubbing slow across my fingers.
23:11Ellida,
23:12may I kiss you?
23:14You may.
23:17Serafina had tried every trick
23:19to drive a wedge between Lucien and E,
23:21but we only grew closer.
23:23So she took two vials
23:25from the locked medicine cabinet.
23:26The label read,
23:28Crimson Moon,
23:29a banned drug stronger than any Aphrodisic.
23:33The next evening,
23:34a maid brought a note
23:36signed by Theodore.
23:37My father had sent an old document
23:39and I should come get it.
23:40I told Lucien I'd be back in ten minutes.
23:43But when I opened the door,
23:45Theodore looked more shocked than I did.
23:48Ellie,
23:49you're okay.
23:50Of course I'm okay.
23:51Didn't you tell me to come get the files?
23:54Didn't you send me a note
23:55saying you felt sick,
23:56asking me to come?
23:58We each pulled out our note.
23:59Same paper,
24:00same wax seal,
24:02only the signatures were swapped.
24:04Let's get out first.
24:05He tried the door.
24:06It was locked from the outside.
24:08Someone had locked us in together on purpose.
24:12Before long,
24:13my chest started to burn.
24:14Even my collar brushing my skin
24:16felt unbearable.
24:18Theodore changed too.
24:19Sweat on his temples,
24:21veins bulging on his hands,
24:23breathing heavier by the second.
24:25Theodore,
24:25I'm burning up.
24:27What did you drink before you came in?
24:29A maid brought me lemon water.
24:30I drank mine too.
24:32He pushed up his sleeve.
24:33The Crimson Moon mark was on his arm.
24:35I rolled up mine.
24:37Same mark.
24:38Crimson Moon.
24:39What?
24:40An aphrodibiac werewolves used to bond.
24:42It magnifies desire,
24:44scent,
24:45and the urge to mark.
24:47Crimson Moon hits fast.
24:49Theodore ran into the bathroom
24:51and doused himself in cold water.
24:53Even then,
24:53he stayed at the far end of the room.
24:55He yanked off his belt,
24:56grabbed a strap from the foot of the bed,
24:58and tied his wrists to the iron post.
25:01Theodore,
25:01you don't have to.
25:02I do.
25:03I hurt you once when I was 17.
25:05There won't be a second time.
25:07I backed to the window,
25:09putting as much space between us as I could.
25:11But the alpha scent grew thicker.
25:13I knew it was Theodore,
25:15and still my body burned,
25:16dragged along by the drug.
25:18Ten minutes was up long ago.
25:20Lucian,
25:20come find me.
25:23The drug got worse.
25:24I curled up in the corner,
25:26burning hot.
25:27An alpha was right there in front of me.
25:29But all I could think about was Lucian.
25:32Then finally,
25:33someone pounded on the door.
25:34Eleanor!
25:35My throat was too dry to call back.
25:37I knocked a vase off the table.
25:39The second the porcelain shattered,
25:41Lucian broke the lock.
25:42Eleanor!
25:44Wait!
25:45That smell isn't right.
25:47We've both been dosed with Crimson Moon.
25:49Someone locked us in here on purpose.
25:52Butler,
25:53take Theodore to the east wing.
25:55Send a doctor,
25:56not anyone from the clinic.
25:57The butler untied Theodore from the bedbone.
25:59Theodore's legs were still weak when he stood,
26:01but he looked at me first.
26:03It'll hit her harder before it passes.
26:05Take care of her.
26:06I know.
26:09Theodore nodded and followed the butler out.
26:11Then it was just us.
26:13My hand stayed clenched on his sleeve.
26:15He tried to sit me down steady.
26:17I leaned up his arm instead.
26:19Look at me.
26:20Who am I?
26:21Lucian.
26:22My husband.
26:24The moment his alpha scent got close,
26:27the Crimson Moon found its outlet.
26:29The heat burned hotter than before.
26:31Closer.
26:33Don't tempt me.
26:34You're drugged.
26:35He told me to stay away,
26:37while his arms held me up the whole time.
26:40I tipped my head up and kissed him.
26:42He froze for a second,
26:43then kissed me back.
26:45Don't touch me again,
26:46or I won't be able to stop.
26:48Then don't stop.
26:49I want you
26:51to mark me.
26:53Do you know what you're saying?
26:54Stop testing me!
26:55It made me hot and annoyed.
26:57I pulled him back down.
26:58His words stayed restrained,
27:00but his body was already at its limit.
27:02He kissed me,
27:03fangs grazing my throat again and again,
27:05but he never bit down.
27:07Will you regret this?
27:09Never.
27:10A mate bond lasts a lifetime.
27:12Say one more word
27:13and I'll go find Theodore.
27:14That did it.
27:15He yanked me into his arms,
27:17pinned me to the bed,
27:18and kissed me like a man possessed.
27:19No, you have me.
27:20You are mine.
27:21And only mine.
27:23Eleanor, say it again.
27:24Let me mark you.
27:27I held his face.
27:28My eyes were clear now.
27:30Lucen,
27:31being locked in with Theodore hurt too.
27:34But only with you do I feel desire.
27:36Only with you
27:37do I want to be marked.
27:40Lucen,
27:40I will only ever choose you.
27:43He couldn't hold back any longer.
27:45His fangs sank into my throat.
27:47Seven years late,
27:48he finally completed the mate mark.
27:51Warmth spread from my throat.
27:52Then something deep inside me slammed hard.
27:55Lucen frowned too.
27:57It was the bond answering back.
27:59Except,
28:00I don't have a wolf.
28:01I barely had time to wonder.
28:03Footsteps came down the hall.
28:06Serafina arrived with Elder Arthur
28:07and a few core pack members.
28:09She looked certain of herself.
28:11That woman dared to betray the Alpha.
28:14Elevins wanted Theodore for years.
28:16Lucen neglects her.
28:18Of course she'd find comfort elsewhere.
28:20And with that,
28:21she pushed the door open herself.
28:24Everyone stalled.
28:26Theodore wasn't there at all.
28:28Lucien sat on the edge of the bed.
28:29Me curled against him in his coat.
28:31The fresh mate mark on my throat plain as day.
28:34Serafina's smile died.
28:36You...
28:38You completed the mark?
28:42Where's Theodore?
28:42He's the one who should have marked you.
28:44She said it with too much certainty
28:45and hurt herself.
28:47Her face changed.
28:48Why are you so sure Theodore should be here?
28:51Because I saw them come in together.
28:52I was worried.
28:53Worried about what?
28:54That the drug already made them do something?
28:56Serafina had no answer.
28:57Lucien wrapped his coat tighter around me
28:59and stepped in front of the bed.
29:01Butler, search the clinic.
29:03Start with the drug inventory.
29:05You suspect me?
29:06People come and go here all day.
29:09Anyone could have done it.
29:10Crimson Moon isn't easy to get hold of.
29:12Maybe it's a misunderstanding.
29:13How do you know it was Crimson Moon?
29:16Too late.
29:18Serafina realized she'd been let into it.
29:20She scrambled for an excuse.
29:22I smelled it, obviously.
29:24Smelled it?
29:25I remember Crimson Moon being colorless and odorless.
29:30I...
29:32You brought all these people here
29:34and every word was steering them
29:35to suspect something between Theodore and E.
29:38Serafina, aren't you trying a little too hard?
29:40The butler's people confirmed it fast.
29:43The water Theodore and I drank
29:44had been dosed with Crimson Moon,
29:46but no Crimson Moon turned up in Serafina's clinic.
29:49See?
29:50It couldn't have been me.
29:51Need a reminder?
29:52Last month you signed two vials of Crimson Moon
29:54out of the Council's stores for research.
29:57Where are they?
29:58How would you know that?
29:59That was...
29:59What made you think I wouldn't find out?
30:02Serafina's composure cracked apart.
30:04She stared at the mark on my neck,
30:06jealousness burning brighter.
30:07You did this.
30:08Why?
30:09Because I want Lucson to see
30:10you don't deserve to stand beside him.
30:12I've loved him since I was a child.
30:15I sat through every wolf moon with him.
30:17Then you showed up and ruined everything.
30:20Even in those seven years he ignored you,
30:23his eyes always went to you.
30:25You can't do anything.
30:27You can't even shift.
30:29What gives you the right?
30:30Because she's her.
30:32The Luna I chose the moment I first saw her.
30:37Seraflina's face got uglier by the second.
30:39Her eyes were nailed to the mate mark on my throat.
30:42So what if you marked her?
30:43You chose your wife.
30:44But the Luna represents the whole pack.
30:47Eleanor, you're a half-blood who can't even shift.
30:50You don't deserve that seat.
30:51No one deserves it more.
30:53At the core dinner, I'll ask her to be my Luna.
30:55Seraflina's medical privileges were suspended.
30:58At the core dinner two days later,
31:00her case would be heard in the open.
31:02With the Morvane family as guaranteeing,
31:04she had to attend.
31:06Even when the dinner began,
31:07pack members still grumbled.
31:09Why should a woman without a wolf be Luna?
31:11The day I married Edelar,
31:13I knew she was my Luna.
31:14Wolf or no wolf, that doesn't change.
31:16Being a wife and being a Luna are different.
31:18With no wolf, how does she help the alpha run the pack?
31:21Right.
31:22Eleanor holding the title of lady is one thing.
31:25But Luna, she's not suited.
31:26Who told you my daughter has no wolf?
31:29Father.
31:30My father's voice came from the doorway.
31:32Theodore behind him, back to normal.
31:34He walked up to me and looked at the mate mark on my throat.
31:37Does it still hurt?
31:39Not anymore.
31:40Sure I was fine.
31:41He turned to the room and held up a silver gray stone.
31:44Eleanor has shifted before.
31:46She was three.
31:48Why don't I remember any of it?
31:50Because after it,
31:52a fever put you in a coma for two days.
31:55Your wolf was too strong for a three-year-old's body.
31:58The doctor said if it kept waking, you wouldn't live to grow up.
32:01He placed the stone in my palm.
32:03So your mother and I sealed it.
32:05She wanted you to grow up safe first.
32:08Study, fall in love, live the life you wanted.
32:11And I didn't want any pack using your bloodline to turn you into a bargaining chip.
32:14But the seal's been loosening lately.
32:17You must have noticed something strange.
32:19Then I understood.
32:20Hearing Lucian's thoughts was the sleeping wolf answering the mate it had chosen.
32:24I looked at my palm and felt a power I'd never known tear through me.
32:28Then a thin crack split the seal stone down the middle.
32:31The room went silent.
32:32The crack raced across the stone.
32:35My nails sharpened.
32:36Every scent in the room turned unbearably clear.
32:39Impossible.
32:40She's a half-blood with no wolf.
32:42Serafina's smile vanished.
32:44I looked up.
32:45My eyes were gold.
32:48Twenty-odd years of pressure burst up my spine.
32:52The room dropped away.
32:53Silver-white fur covered my limbs.
32:55For the first time, I saw my wolf.
32:58The wolves nearby stepped back by instinct.
33:01Arthur went pale.
33:02Then led the pack to their knees, voice shaking.
33:05The silver moon wolf.
33:06The oldest bloodline of all.
33:08Lucian felt the pressure too.
33:10He didn't step back once, just looked at me.
33:12So beautiful.
33:13You're thinking about that right now?
33:15Sorry.
33:16Couldn't help it.
33:18Half-blood is half-blood.
33:20I'm the pure one.
33:22The moment she finished, the wolf she was proudest reaction of bowed its head to me first.
33:28No.
33:30How can you overpower me?
33:31The wolf retreated.
33:32I shifted back.
33:34Everyone was still staring.
33:35Lucian was checking me head to top.
33:37Does anything hurt?
33:37No.
33:39Scared me to death.
33:40Beautiful shore.
33:41But next time, could you warn me?
33:43What if you've gotten hurt?
33:45I smiled and took his hand.
33:47Arthur set the lunar document in front of me, his voice still unsteady.
33:51The objection to your lunar title.
33:53I see no reason to discuss it further.
33:55The silver moon bloodline is the oldest there is.
33:58Your lunar seat is the Ashburn Pax Honor.
34:02With or without that wolf, there's nothing to discuss.
34:05I looked at Lucian.
34:06His eyes were overflowing with love and respect.
34:10Then he went down on one knee.
34:13Eleanor.
34:14I know the 15 days aren't up.
34:17But I don't want to wait anymore.
34:19Will you be my Luna?
34:21No bloodline.
34:23No wolf.
34:24None of that matters.
34:25And if I say no?
34:27Then I'll ask tomorrow.
34:28And the day after.
34:30Until you say yes.
34:33Yes.
34:33I will.
34:35What did she say?
34:36Did I hear that right?
34:38You heard right.
34:39The lunar seat, I accept.
34:41I thought everything was settled.
34:43Then Seprafina broke.
34:45How?
34:45It's not fair.
34:46You can't be a silver moon wolf.
34:48I'm the noble one.
34:50Lucian is mine.
34:52Her eyes went gold.
34:54She lunged at me, claws out.
34:56Lucian pulled me clear.
34:58And she swung wildly with no control.
35:00Seraphina aimed a killing blow at me.
35:02I only raised a hand.
35:04Her own power turned on her and slammed her a dozen yards away.
35:09You still don't get it.
35:11I didn't ruin you.
35:12Your own jealousy did.
35:14Take her away.
35:15The council will handle it.
35:17Yes, sir.
35:18After that day, Selaphina was driven off pack lands.
35:21I heard she rounded up rogues to attack the Ashburn pack.
35:24Got torn apart instead and vanished.
35:27But that's a story for later.
35:29Whether she lived or died, I never cared.
35:33Ten days later, Lucian and I went to the pack alliance and withdraw the filing.
35:38As I reached for the pen, he caught my hand.
35:41Are you sure?
35:42Once it's withdrawn, you're mine for life.
35:45I'm sure.
35:46My alpha.
35:49Back home, I dug out the divorce papers he'd put away and never touched again.
35:53Creased all over.
35:54No guessing needed.
35:56Lucian had taken them out to read.
35:58Over and over.
35:59But he respected me too much to ever do anything about them.
36:02So I tore them up in front of him.
36:04Clear and quick.
36:06She tore them.
36:07She actually tore them.
36:09Sunlight poured through the window onto him.
36:11The man who walked away on our wedding night seven years ago.
36:14Who buried every feeling he had.
36:16Right now, he looked like a kid.
36:18I thought of the day I first heard his thoughts.
36:20Standing on the steps, face cold, heart panicking.
36:24Lucan.
36:26The day I was leaving with my suitcase, what did you say in your head?
36:30Say it again.
36:32Lucian's ears went red.
36:34He opened his mouth.
36:35And for the first time in seven years, that ice-cold face looked lost.
36:39I just watched him.
36:41Didn't push.
36:42Didn't laugh.
36:42He stood, walked over, took my shoulders, and said out loud what he'd only ever dared to think.
36:48Don't go.
36:49Elethan, I love you.
36:51Tomorrow, the day after, every day after that, I want them all with you.
36:55I rose on my toes and kissed him.
36:59Approved.
37:00The day we saw Theodore off, Lucan held my hand the entire time.
37:04Theodore looked at our hands and smiled.
37:06Guess I'm out of chances.
37:08Theodore, you'll meet someone who truly loves you.
37:11Obviously.
37:13I'm heading back.
37:14Be happy, Ellie.
37:16You too.
37:18Two weeks later, Lucan and I went back to Rosenville to stay with my father.
37:22The moment we got out of the car, Lucan took the suitcase from my hand.
37:27I've got it.
37:29Aren't you a guest?
37:30Does a husband count as a guest?
37:32Please, please don't give us two rooms.
37:35If they do, I'll just have to knock on her door at night.
37:37And then what?
37:39I'd hold you and say...
37:41Say what?
37:43I missed you, wife.
37:45He pulled me into his arms and kissed the corner of my mouth.
37:48I laughed so hard I doubled over.
37:51Can I ask you something?
37:53Mm-hmm.
37:53You're so strong now.
37:55Hardly anyone can hurt you.
37:57So if I make you mad, will you hit me?
37:59Depends on your behavior.
38:00Great.
38:01So much for being the most feared alpha in the north.
38:57You're welcome.
