guide note on Trading My Mate for the Dragon King, and the household rules fit in one sentence.
Their father cannot refuse the Dragon King. A clan lord who controls his daughters' marriages completely has one party he cannot negotiate with, and it is not his wife, his heir or the neighbours.
So the family hierarchy has one gap, and everyone knows where. Both daughters are assets. One can be spent on a plea, the other on a peace. Only the second is unavoidable.
Which means Laura's first life was not a love story protected by fate. It was a request granted because it happened to be affordable.
✨ What worked for me:
- Nobody calls the arrangement a trade.
- The father is never portrayed as cruel.
✨ Bottom line: the marriage she chose was the only one the family could refuse.

00:13:58don't touch her
00:13:58I don't know.
00:14:29Don't be scared, Your Highness.
00:14:31I'll use these claws of mine to keep you safe.
00:14:33I promise.
00:14:39Those claws used to protect me.
00:14:41But for the first time,
00:14:43you're using them to hurt me.
00:14:45All for Ava.
00:14:51Laura, wait.
00:14:52I'm sorry, I...
00:14:53Don't even bother.
00:14:55Saying you're sorry won't change anything.
00:14:56And this isn't the only thing you've done to me.
00:15:16Who said you could come in?
00:15:17Get out.
00:15:25Get your hands off me!
00:15:30Laura, enough.
00:15:31I know I shouldn't have hit you.
00:15:32I thought Ava was hurt and I panicked.
00:15:34I'm really sorry.
00:15:35Can we please just stop this?
00:15:41I promise you'll always be this good to me.
00:15:43Even after we're married?
00:15:45Always.
00:15:50I was good to you too.
00:15:52Wasn't I?
00:15:54Just promise me you'll stop going after Ava.
00:15:57That's all I'm asking.
00:15:58And then maybe we can go back to how we used to be.
00:16:03So that's my reward?
00:16:05If I'm nice to Ava, you'll throw me a little affection too?
00:16:08I cannot believe this.
00:16:10That's not what I meant.
00:16:11Now get out!
00:16:12I don't want to see you again!
00:16:30Unbelievable.
00:16:31We already have a deal.
00:16:32And she's still trying to keep Damien on the hook.
00:16:35Fine, Laura.
00:16:37If Steven is going to kill you anyway,
00:16:39I'll make sure you leave this place with absolutely nothing!
00:16:50Burn it all.
00:16:51Clothes, jewelry, memories.
00:16:53I don't care.
00:16:56I'm taking this room after the wedding
00:16:57and I don't want to see one single trace of that bitch.
00:17:10Poor Laura.
00:17:11You spent your whole life
00:17:13begging for father's love and Damien's heart.
00:17:17Now they're both mine.
00:17:19Enjoy your wedding night with a monster.
00:17:21I'll be in your bed with your mate.
00:17:24Ah!
00:17:42Hey, asshole!
00:17:43What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:17:46That's my mother.
00:17:49Our clan's greatest queen.
00:17:51She gave her life for our people!
00:17:54She's dead.
00:17:56And now my mom is the queen.
00:17:58You're nothing but a little bitch.
00:18:00This is exactly what you deserve
00:18:02for still trying to seduce Damien.
00:18:06Say another word about my mother
00:18:08and I'll rip your jewel off.
00:18:09Dean! Sam!
00:18:10Don't just stand there!
00:18:12Do something!
00:18:25Let go of that portrait!
00:18:48Your dragon power never went away?
00:18:51Have you been lying to all of us?
00:18:53Yes, obviously.
00:18:54But I sacrificed my power to save you.
00:18:57Works so well on Damien, don't you think?
00:19:01No!
00:19:06Smoke?
00:19:07From Laura's room?
00:19:09She's attacking Ava again?
00:19:11Ava can't even defend herself
00:19:12and Laura's using dragon power on her.
00:19:28Don't blink, bitch.
00:19:30I want you to see exactly who he wants.
00:19:35Laura, stop!
00:19:37Don't push me!
00:19:41Don't push me!
00:19:58Damien, help!
00:20:00I can't use dragon power anymore!
00:20:02If I hit the ground, I'm dead!
00:20:12Laura, why didn't you summon your dragon?
00:20:14What happened?
00:20:18Laura.
00:20:19She pushed me, I swear!
00:20:21She got angry and threw me out the window.
00:20:24I was terrified.
00:20:26Laura, what the hell?
00:20:28You pushed her!
00:20:32Laura, didn't we talk about this?
00:20:35If you're angry about anything,
00:20:36just take it out on me.
00:20:37You know that Ava is powerless.
00:20:39What you did wasn't just jealousy.
00:20:41It was attempted murder.
00:20:43She grabbed me and jumped.
00:20:45And she is not powerless.
00:20:47She's been lying to your face this entire time!
00:20:49Enough!
00:20:50She almost died!
00:20:51And you're still trying to smear her!
00:20:53I just wanted some armor before Frostbund takes me away.
00:20:56I thought Laura might still care enough to help me with that.
00:20:59But I guess I was wrong.
00:21:01It's okay though, Damien.
00:21:02Please don't blame her.
00:21:03You did nothing wrong.
00:21:05You're braver than anyone in this clan.
00:21:07Laura, on the other hand,
00:21:08isn't even half the woman you are.
00:21:11Say whatever you want.
00:21:12The truth is the truth.
00:21:14Two more days,
00:21:15then I'll never have to explain myself to any of them again.
00:21:22Apologize to Ava.
00:21:23What?
00:21:24Have you lost your mind?
00:21:25Let go of me now!
00:21:26You nearly killed her.
00:21:28You don't think you owe her an apology?
00:21:29I'm not apologizing for something she did to me.
00:21:32Ava knows the truth,
00:21:33even if you're too stupid to see it.
00:21:35Oh, now you're threatening her?
00:21:37Fine.
00:21:38Forget the apology.
00:21:39You'll make Ava the armor she asked from your own scales.
00:21:41You owe her that much, Laura!
00:21:46Damien, are you insane?
00:21:47What the hell are you doing?
00:21:49Let me go!
00:22:03If we want strong armor,
00:22:04the scales over her heart and belly are the strongest,
00:22:07and the most painful to pull out.
00:22:09Isn't that a little cruel, Damien?
00:22:10Laura will survive.
00:22:12She's strong.
00:22:12A few scales won't take away her power,
00:22:14and once we're married,
00:22:15she'll have me protecting her anyway.
00:22:17You don't have that liberty, Ava.
00:22:19Damien, don't you dare touch me.
00:22:25You gave up your dragon power to save my life.
00:22:29You're practically human now,
00:22:30vulnerable and weak,
00:22:31so I need to look after you.
00:22:36She never lost it!
00:22:37She's lying to you, Damien!
00:22:39Please, don't do this to me!
00:22:59They're beautiful.
00:23:00Thank you, Laura.
00:23:01Now I'll have your scales to keep me safe.
00:23:07I spent a lifetime loving you, Damien,
00:23:10and you still fell for act.
00:23:13You've betrayed me one too many times.
00:23:15The woman who loved you is gone.
00:23:18Two more days,
00:23:19once the weddings are over,
00:23:21you'll never see me again.
00:23:37Stephen, you saved me?
00:23:42Obviously.
00:23:43Damien was too wrapped up in your stepsister
00:23:46to care if you live or die.
00:23:48Without me,
00:23:48the wolves would have gevoured you last night.
00:23:58How are you still so afraid of me?
00:24:01We've met twice now.
00:24:02You did put an arrow through my heart
00:24:04in another life.
00:24:06So, yeah,
00:24:07I'm a little scared.
00:24:14Princess Laura,
00:24:15Damien Miller sent something for your wounds.
00:24:30Just leave it there.
00:24:32Seriously?
00:24:33After everything he's done,
00:24:34one little bottle of potion,
00:24:36and she's thinking about him again?
00:24:37Damien?
00:24:40Your Majesty,
00:24:43I heard you found Princess Laurie
00:24:44wounded in the woods.
00:24:45How is she now?
00:24:47Who cares?
00:24:48She's not my bride anyway.
00:24:52Save the fake concern, Damien.
00:24:54Go be with your Ava.
00:24:56I'm done with you two forever.
00:25:04Ava, I'm sorry for what Laura did yesterday.
00:25:07Your wedding's tomorrow.
00:25:08This is the last thing you need.
00:25:10It's okay, Damien.
00:25:11I've accepted my fate.
00:25:12I just wish,
00:25:13maybe in another life,
00:25:15I could be your bride instead.
00:25:22No, fuck this.
00:25:24I can't just watch and let it happen.
00:25:26You'll die.
00:25:27Then what can we possibly do?
00:25:32Let me mark you first.
00:25:34That means Stephen won't be able to claim you right away.
00:25:37We'll go through with the weddings first.
00:25:38Then I'll come for you and get you out of Frostbite.
00:25:45But that's something we only do with our mates.
00:25:48Laura is your mate right now.
00:25:50I have to mark Ava.
00:25:51It's the only way Stephen might let her go.
00:25:54Laura will marry me anyway,
00:25:56just like she did in our last life.
00:25:58I'm only doing this to save her sister.
00:26:01Laura will understand.
00:26:03It's the only way to make Stephen give you up.
00:26:05Laura will understand.
00:26:08Then do it.
00:26:09Mark me, Damien.
00:26:10I want you.
00:26:21That's it, Laura.
00:26:23Suffer.
00:26:24Your mate just chose me.
00:26:31I'm going to kill you.
00:26:38Yes.
00:26:51I'm going to kill you.
00:26:56No.
00:27:12Laura, how long have you been standing there?
00:27:16Are you okay?
00:27:18I didn't know marking someone else would hurt you like that.
00:27:22But, listen, I'm only trying to keep Ava alive.
00:27:25The marking doesn't mean anything, it's temporary.
00:27:28You're still my mate.
00:27:29Nothing between us has changed.
00:27:37I don't know if marking her will save her.
00:27:40I do know it's tearing my soul apart.
00:27:43You know what?
00:27:44I'm done, Damien.
00:27:46I want to break our bond.
00:27:50What did you just say?
00:27:53Damien Miller, I'm done letting you hurt me.
00:27:56I'm breaking our main bond.
00:28:00Oh, please.
00:28:02You've spent your whole life trying to get me to marry you.
00:28:05So whatever you're doing will not work.
00:28:07Your mother's name still means something to this clan.
00:28:10Marrying you is my only way to the throne.
00:28:12And our people need me to protect them.
00:28:17You think this will make me feel sorry for you?
00:28:19It makes me sick.
00:28:21Drop the act!
00:28:29Damien, after tomorrow, you and I never will never see each other again.
00:28:38This is a dragon plaque.
00:28:42It can end a mate bond without the other person agreeing to it.
00:28:47Write the vow in your own blood.
00:28:49Seal it and give it to Damien.
00:28:51The second he opens it, the spell will sever your bond for good.
00:29:01I, Laura Crest, reject you, Damien Miller, and break our mate bond.
00:29:08Now and forever.
00:29:19Time to end this.
00:29:39When that bell rings at noon, the frostbale boat will be taking you straight to Stephen.
00:29:48Good luck, sis.
00:29:50Hope you'll make it through your wedding night.
00:30:10Wait!
00:30:27Ava, I'm sorry.
00:30:28I still couldn't stop the wedding.
00:30:29But I meant what I promised you.
00:30:32I'll find a way to get you out, okay?
00:30:34I'll come for you.
00:30:35I swear.
00:30:36I get it, Damien.
00:30:38You really do love her.
00:30:41Here, one last thing from me.
00:30:43Wait until the wedding's over before you open it.
00:30:46You sound kind of weird today.
00:30:48Just a cold.
00:30:49I have to go now.
00:30:52Something's off.
00:30:52I thought Ava would be crying and hugging me.
00:30:55But she was so calm.
00:30:57Is she angry that I couldn't save her?
00:31:10King Stephen, you better take care of Ava.
00:31:12If anything happens to her...
00:31:13What?
00:31:14What can you do about it?
00:31:19Drop the attitude or this wedding turns into your funeral.
00:31:21Then I'll take your bride too and give her a good time.
00:31:24What the fuck did you just say?
00:32:00From now on, she's mine.
00:32:02What happens to her is no longer your concern
00:32:04or your pathetic little plans.
00:32:07Stephen!
00:32:13Laura?
00:32:22You're serious?
00:32:23You're really switching with me?
00:32:25Because I'm not going to let you take it back.
00:32:27But Laura, what's going on?
00:32:29You've liked Damien since you were a child.
00:32:32I don't believe you'd actually volunteer to marry him
00:32:34just to save Ava.
00:32:36Everyone knows Stephen Thorne is a monster.
00:32:39So what are you really after?
00:32:40I'm not doing this for Ava.
00:32:42I'm doing it for Cinderwyn.
00:32:44My mother was the greatest warrior this clan ever had.
00:32:47Her courage runs in my blood.
00:32:49I won't turn my back on my people.
00:32:52This marriage is meant to keep the peace.
00:32:55We don't need a coward who's already looking for a way out.
00:32:58Laura, I didn't expect this.
00:33:00I'm so proud of you.
00:33:02Just ask for anything.
00:33:03Anything at all and I'll make it happen.
00:33:07Dad, I'm your daughter too.
00:33:09You know exactly what marrying Stephen means.
00:33:11But you're smiling now because Ava doesn't have to go.
00:33:15I'd rather marry Stephen than stay in a house where nobody loves me.
00:33:19At least this way, innocent people won't get dragged into another war.
00:33:23I'll marry Stephen.
00:33:24On one condition.
00:33:26Name it.
00:33:27I'll make it happen.
00:33:28No one can know about the bride swap until the weddings are over.
00:33:32Not even Damien.
00:33:34Damien would pretend to feel sorry for me.
00:33:36But he'd just be relieved Ava wasn't the one being sent to die.
00:33:39The thought makes me sick.
00:33:41Fine.
00:33:42We'll hold both weddings on the same day, three days from now.
00:33:47Hold on.
00:33:47But you're already bonded to Damien.
00:33:50I'll handle it.
00:33:52Mum, do you think Damien will be happy when he finds out about this?
00:33:55Of course he will, sweetheart.
00:33:57You're the one.
00:33:58Damien loves.
00:33:59He'll be thrilled.
00:34:06In my last life, I begged my father to let me marry Damien.
00:34:10This time, I'm here to cut him out of my life for good.
00:34:14What, begging King Ethan again?
00:34:16Still pressuring him so I'll marry you?
00:34:21Three years after I married Damien,
00:34:23my stepsister Ava was murdered by the tyrant king of Frostfell.
00:34:27She'd married him on our wedding day.
00:34:29Damien went to war to avenge her.
00:34:31Despite my pleas,
00:34:32it walked straight into their trap.
00:34:38Damien, are you hurt?
00:34:40Get out.
00:34:42You don't feel guilty at all, do you?
00:34:45If Ava hadn't you married that monster for you,
00:34:47she'd still be alive!
00:34:49What did you just say?
00:34:50Why couldn't it have been you, Laura?
00:34:52You'll always owe Ava your life.
00:34:54I love this man for ten years,
00:34:56but clearly he wishes I'd died instead of Ava.
00:34:59So all the years we spent together meant nothing to you.
00:35:02Was it all a lie?
00:35:04Damien, did you ever love me?
00:35:06The gods made you my mate,
00:35:07and your father made you my wife.
00:35:09I never chose any of this.
00:35:10I hate this marriage,
00:35:11and I hate you most of all.
00:35:13Stay the hell away from me in the next life!
00:35:39Damien, if there is another life,
00:35:42I'll never marry you again.
00:35:52Somehow, when I opened my eyes again,
00:35:55I was back three days before Ava's wedding and mine.
00:35:58I don't want to marry that devil.
00:36:02Be my first.
00:36:04Damien, please.
00:36:05I'd rather die than marry Stephen.
00:36:07They say he's already killed ten brides.
00:36:10I'm not going to survive this.
00:36:12Ava, I've begged your father over and over.
00:36:16But Stephen is too powerful.
00:36:18Even your father, the great king Ethan,
00:36:20has to obey him.
00:36:22So just because I don't have dragon power,
00:36:24I'm the one they sacrifice?
00:36:26I'd rather kill myself right now
00:36:28than let that monster torture me to death!
00:36:34Ava, stop.
00:36:35You only lost your dragon power,
00:36:37saving my life.
00:36:38I haven't forgotten that.
00:36:39I'll protect you,
00:36:41no matter the cost.
00:36:43If I have to give up everything
00:36:44and run away with you,
00:36:46I will.
00:36:51Poor Laura.
00:36:53The man you're so desperate to marry
00:36:55just said he would throw away
00:36:56his entire life for me.
00:37:00But your wedding to Laura
00:37:01is only three days away.
00:37:04Are you sure you want to
00:37:04abandon that for me?
00:37:06I can't believe the husband
00:37:08I loved so much
00:37:08would choose my stepsister over me.
00:37:17It's him.
00:37:18The tyrant.
00:37:20Stephen.
00:37:21What's he doing here?
00:37:26Your fiancé's in there.
00:37:28Yeah.
00:37:29Entertaining my fiancé.
00:37:32You deserve better.
00:37:35Why don't you marry me instead?
00:37:45You are breathtakingly beautiful.
00:37:56But why are you shaking?
00:37:58Am I scaring you?
00:38:01Ava is your bride,
00:38:03not me.
00:38:09Why would I marry a woman
00:38:11who strips for another man
00:38:13and begs him to take her?
00:38:15You, though,
00:38:18you've got some fight in you.
00:38:20I like that in a wife.
00:38:23I already have a mate.
00:38:25Yeah.
00:38:27Then why is he holding another woman?
00:38:36Three days from now,
00:38:38I'm returning to Frostbane
00:38:39with my new wife.
00:38:42And if my bride decides
00:38:43to run off with another man,
00:38:46I'll burn this pathetic little clan
00:38:48to the ground.
00:39:05Don't worry, Ava.
00:39:07I'm getting you out of this.
00:39:09You are not marrying that monster.
00:39:11I don't care what it cost me.
00:39:24Damien!
00:39:24I can finally use dragon power.
00:39:39And you're my mate?
00:39:40Oh my God, this is fate!
00:39:44Damien,
00:39:45you're everything to me.
00:39:46I love you.
00:39:49As soon as I turn 22,
00:39:50let's get married.
00:39:52What do you think?
00:40:00In my last life,
00:40:02I thought being his mate
00:40:04and giving him everything
00:40:06would make him love me back.
00:40:09I was wrong.
00:40:10He made his choice.
00:40:12And I'm gonna
00:40:14make mine.
00:40:33Oh no!
00:40:34It's a marriage proposal
00:40:35from Frostbine!
00:40:37Dad,
00:40:38Mom, please.
00:40:40I can't do this.
00:40:42I'm not strong like Laura.
00:40:44Stefan is terrifying.
00:40:45I just can't.
00:40:49Come on,
00:40:50do something!
00:40:52Stephen killed
00:40:53the last dragon king
00:40:54and took the crown
00:40:54when he was 14.
00:40:56He's a violent man.
00:40:58Are you really going
00:40:59to stand by
00:40:59and let Ava do this?
00:41:01Send Laura instead.
00:41:03She's the oldest.
00:41:04If anyone should be used
00:41:05for a marriage alliance,
00:41:07it's her.
00:41:08Laura's mother died
00:41:09saving the Cinderwing Clab.
00:41:11Our people still
00:41:11worship her memory.
00:41:13If I force Laura
00:41:14into this marriage,
00:41:15everyone will turn
00:41:16against me.
00:41:17I don't care.
00:41:19Ava is my baby.
00:41:20I'm not sending
00:41:21my daughter off to die.
00:41:23If Ava marries Stefan
00:41:25and then plots
00:41:25to escape him,
00:41:27Stefan would probably
00:41:28wipe out
00:41:28the entire clan anyway.
00:41:30I'm not letting
00:41:31innocent people die
00:41:32because of her.
00:41:33I have to make a choice.
00:41:36Laura, are you just
00:41:37going to stand there
00:41:38while she gets handed
00:41:39to a monster?
00:41:40How can you be
00:41:41so heartless?
00:41:42Was taking the man
00:41:43she loved not enough?
00:41:45Yeah.
00:41:46Your sister is crying
00:41:48herself sick
00:41:48and you don't even care.
00:41:50What kind of cold-blooded
00:41:51monster did I raise?
00:41:54Sister,
00:41:55I don't remember
00:41:56mum giving birth
00:41:56to another girl.
00:41:58You know what?
00:42:00Looking at you now,
00:42:01I wish I'd sent you
00:42:02to Steven instead.
00:42:16Dad approved
00:42:17our marriage.
00:42:19Damien,
00:42:19I'm so happy.
00:42:21Three more days
00:42:22and I will finally
00:42:23get to be your wife.
00:42:34Fine.
00:42:35Let me marry
00:42:36Steven instead.
00:42:38Ava can have Damien.
00:42:39Let's give them
00:42:40what they want.
00:42:47You're serious?
00:42:48You're really
00:42:49switching with me?
00:42:50Because I'm not
00:42:50going to let you
00:42:51take it back.
00:42:52But Laura,
00:42:53what's going on?
00:42:54You've liked Damien
00:42:55since you were a child.
00:42:57I don't believe
00:42:58you'd actually
00:42:58volunteer to marry him
00:42:59just to save Ava.
00:43:01Everyone knows
00:43:02Steven Thorne
00:43:03is a monster.
00:43:04So what are you
00:43:04really after?
00:43:05I'm not doing
00:43:06this for Ava.
00:43:07I'm doing it
00:43:08for Cinderwyn.
00:43:09My mother was
00:43:10the greatest warrior
00:43:11this clan ever had.
00:43:13Her courage
00:43:13runs in my blood.
00:43:14I won't turn
00:43:15my back on my people.
00:43:17This marriage
00:43:18is meant to
00:43:19keep the peace.
00:43:20We don't need
00:43:20a coward who's
00:43:21already looking
00:43:22for a way out.
00:43:23Laura,
00:43:24I didn't expect this.
00:43:25I'm so proud of you.
00:43:27Just ask for anything.
00:43:29Anything at all
00:43:29and I'll make it happen.
00:43:32Dad,
00:43:33I'm your daughter too.
00:43:34You know exactly
00:43:35what marrying
00:43:36Steven means.
00:43:37But you're smiling now
00:43:38because Ava
00:43:39doesn't have to go.
00:43:40I'd rather marry
00:43:41Steven than stay
00:43:42in a house
00:43:43where nobody loves me.
00:43:44At least this way
00:43:45innocent people
00:43:46won't get dragged
00:43:47into another war.
00:43:48I'll marry Steven
00:43:49on one condition.
00:43:51Name it.
00:43:52I'll make it happen.
00:43:53No one can know
00:43:54about the bride swap
00:43:55until the weddings
00:43:56are over.
00:43:57Not even Damien.
00:43:59Damien would pretend
00:44:00to feel sorry for me
00:44:01but he'd just be relieved
00:44:02Ava wasn't the one
00:44:03being sent to die.
00:44:05The thought makes me sick.
00:44:07Fine.
00:44:07We'll hold both weddings
00:44:09on the same day
00:44:09three days from now.
00:44:12Hold on.
00:44:13But you're already
00:44:13bonded to Damien.
00:44:15I'll handle it.
00:44:17Mum,
00:44:18do you think Damien
00:44:19will be happy
00:44:19when he finds out
00:44:20about this?
00:44:20Of course he will,
00:44:21sweetheart.
00:44:22You're the one.
00:44:23Damien loves.
00:44:24He'll be thrilled.
00:44:31In my last life,
00:44:33I begged my father
00:44:33to let me marry Damien.
00:44:35This time,
00:44:36I'm here
00:44:36to cut him out
00:44:37of my life for good.
00:44:39What, begging King Ethan again?
00:44:41Still pressuring him
00:44:42so I'll marry you?
00:44:46Looks like
00:44:47you were reborn too.
00:44:50Wait.
00:44:51You too?
00:44:52You knew Ava would die
00:44:53if she married Stephen
00:44:55and you still went in there
00:44:56to make sure of it.
00:44:57You'd send your own sister
00:44:59to her death
00:44:59just to have me.
00:45:01You're sick.
00:45:02I'm sick.
00:45:04You're right.
00:45:05I'm the villain.
00:45:06You broke my heart
00:45:07in our last life.
00:45:10This time,
00:45:10I'll make sure
00:45:11you never marry
00:45:12the woman you love.
00:45:14Laura!
00:45:17Look,
00:45:17King Ethan gave me
00:45:18everything I have today.
00:45:20If he ordered this marriage,
00:45:21I won't defy him.
00:45:23And I'll marry you again.
00:45:26I'll accept my fate.
00:45:27But this time,
00:45:28I'm going to save Ava.
00:45:30Nobody is stopping me.
00:45:32Not even if the whole world
00:45:33is against me.
00:45:35Damien!
00:45:40Damien, please.
00:45:41Don't fight with Laura over me.
00:45:44I've made my peace with it.
00:45:46Your wedding is what matters.
00:45:50See?
00:45:51Even now,
00:45:52she's still looking out for you.
00:45:54And you?
00:45:55You can't even be bothered.
00:45:58Laura,
00:45:58you really make me sick.
00:46:01No,
00:46:01the self-righteous bullshit
00:46:02is what's sick.
00:46:04Sister,
00:46:04don't talk to Damien like that.
00:46:06Move.
00:46:11I'm sorry, Laura.
00:46:12Please don't hit me.
00:46:16Don't touch her!
00:46:48Don't be scared,
00:46:49your highness.
00:46:49I'll use these claws of mine
00:46:51to keep you safe.
00:46:52I promise.
00:46:57Those claws used to protect me.
00:47:00But for the first time,
00:47:02you're using them to hurt me.
00:47:04All for Ava.
00:47:10Laura, wait.
00:47:11I'm sorry, I...
00:47:12Don't even bother.
00:47:13Saying you're sorry
00:47:14won't change anything.
00:47:15and this isn't the only thing
00:47:16you've done to me.
00:47:34Who said you could come in?
00:47:36Get out.
00:47:44Get your hands off me!
00:47:48Laura, enough.
00:47:50I know I shouldn't have hit you.
00:47:51I thought Ava was hurt
00:47:52and I panicked.
00:47:53I'm really sorry.
00:47:54Can we please just stop this?
00:48:00Promise you'll always be this good to me,
00:48:02even after we're married?
00:48:04Always.
00:48:09I was good to you, too.
00:48:11Wasn't I?
00:48:13Just promise me
00:48:14you'll stop going after Ava.
00:48:15That's all I'm asking.
00:48:17And then maybe we can go back
00:48:19to how we used to be.
00:48:22So that's my reward?
00:48:24If I'm nice to Ava,
00:48:25you'll throw me a little affection, too?
00:48:27I cannot believe this.
00:48:28That's not what I meant.
00:48:30Now get out!
00:48:30I don't want to see you again!
00:48:48Unbelievable.
00:48:50We already have a deal
00:48:51and she's still trying
00:48:52to keep Damien on the hook.

00:57:57then I'll come for you and get you out of Frostback
00:58:04but that's something we only do with our mates
00:58:06Laura is your mate right now
00:58:08I have to mark Ava
00:58:10it's the only way Stephen might let her go
00:58:13Laura will marry me anyway

00:58:28I want you
00:58:40that's it Laura
00:58:41suffer
00:58:42your mate just chose me
00:58:53I want you
00:59:31Laura? How long have you been standing there?
00:59:34Are you okay?
00:59:37I didn't know marking someone else would hurt you like that.
00:59:41But, listen.
00:59:42I'm only trying to keep Ava alive.
00:59:44The marking doesn't mean anything. It's temporary.
00:59:47You're still my mate.
00:59:48Nothing between us has changed.
00:59:56I don't know if marking her will save her.
00:59:59I do know it's tearing my soul apart.
01:00:02You know what?
01:00:03I'm done, Damien.
01:00:05I want to break our bond.
01:00:09What did you just say?
01:00:12Damien Miller, I'm done letting you hurt me.
01:00:15I'm breaking our main bond.
01:00:19Oh, please.
01:00:20You've spent your whole life trying to get me to marry you.
01:00:24So whatever you're doing will not work.
01:00:26Your mother's name still means something to this clan.
01:00:29Marrying you is my only way to the throne.
01:00:31And our people need me to protect them.
01:00:35You think this will make me feel sorry for you?
01:00:38It makes me sick.
01:00:40Drop the act!
01:00:48Damien, after tomorrow,
01:00:49you and I
01:00:50never
01:00:51will never see each other again.
01:00:56This is a dragon plaque.
01:01:01It can end a mate bond
01:01:02without the other person agreeing to it.
01:01:06Write the vow in your own blood.
01:01:08Seal it
01:01:08and give it to Damien.
01:01:10The second he opens it,
01:01:11the spell will sever your bond for good.
01:01:20I, Laura Crest,
01:01:22reject you, Damien Miller,
01:01:25and break our mate bond.
01:01:27Now and forever.
01:01:37Time to end this.
01:01:58When that bell rings at noon,
01:02:00the frostbale boat will be taking you
01:02:03straight to Stephen.
01:02:06Good luck, sis.
01:02:09Hope you'll make it through your wedding night.
01:02:28Wait!
01:02:46Ava, I'm sorry.
01:02:47I still couldn't stop the wedding.
01:02:48But I meant what I promised you.
01:02:51I'll find a way to get you out, okay?
01:02:53I'll come for you.
01:02:54I swear.
01:02:55I get it, Damien.
01:02:56You really do love her.
01:03:00Here, one last thing from me.
01:03:02Wait until the wedding's over
01:03:03before you open it.
01:03:05You sound kind of weird today.
01:03:07Just a cold.
01:03:08I have to go now.
01:03:10Something's off.
01:03:11I thought Ava would be crying
01:03:13and hugging me.
01:03:14But she was so calm.
01:03:16Is she angry that I couldn't save her?
01:03:29King Stephen,
01:03:30you better take care of Ava.
01:03:31If anything happens to her...
01:03:32What?
01:03:33What can you do about it?
01:03:37Drop the attitude
01:03:38or this wedding turns into your funeral.
01:03:40Then I'll take your bride, too,
01:03:42and give her a good time.
01:03:43What the fuck did you just say?
01:03:44What the fuck did you just say?
01:04:19From now on,
01:04:20she's mine.
01:04:21What happens to her
01:04:22is no longer your concern
01:04:23or your pathetic little plans.
01:04:26Stephen!
01:04:32Laura?
01:04:33Laura?
01:04:34Laura?
01:04:35Laura?
01:04:35Laura?
01:04:37Laura?
01:04:37Laura?
01:04:40Laura?
