Short filmTranscript
00:04Every full moon, a young male wolf sneaks into the pack of the female he's got his eye on,
00:10slings her onto his back and takes off the harder she fights.
00:14The more prized she is, and he's got to give it all.
00:17He's got to make off with her.
00:19A century-old mating ritual the pack calls the Moonlit Chase.
00:25Cain, I've been waiting for you for three years.
00:32Alara, don't listen to their bullshit.
00:34You ain't worthless.
00:35Soon as I've locked down the Greycliff Alpha seat, whether you can shift or not,
00:38I'm going to carry you off under the full moon, by the old ways,
00:41and make you my one and only Luna, standing beside me, honored by every last wolf.
00:46For over a decade, my stepmother's been lacing my food with suppression herbs so I'd never awaken my wolf.
00:51They call me the Mute Wolf, the Shame of Cedar Fall.
00:54But I don't care about any of that.
00:56The only thing I care about is what you said.
00:58You're coming tonight, right?
01:06Allara, tonight's chase is about to start.
01:08Your room is too far back, hard to find.
01:11Aria's room is right by the entrance, the first thing Cain will see when he walks in.
01:17Just wait here.
01:19I'll have Aria block the door for you and keep those random male wolves out.
01:23You've always had a weak constitution since you were little.
01:25You wouldn't be able to take the rough handling from those male wolves.
01:28With Aria's help, Cain will be able to carry you off without a hitch.
01:31Don't worry, Allara.
01:33I'll definitely hold the others back for you.
01:35Cain likes you so much, he'll be the first to find you for sure.
01:40I know what you're up to, but I trust Cain.
01:44He promised me he won't mistake anyone else for me.
01:54Cain.
02:05He said, this is the token of our mate bond.
02:09When he bites his mark into the side of my neck, this bone plaque will bloom with blood-red patterns.
02:19Alpha, are we really going to just take Aria away later?
02:22Yes.
02:23She's highly fertile.
02:24I need her.
02:25What about Allara?
02:26She's still waiting.
02:27If she finds out-
02:28That shwee wolf who can't even shift?
02:29So what if she finds out the truth?
02:31What kind of trouble could she possibly cause?
02:34Just give her a dead bone plaque to keep her quiet.
02:36It's not like she can tell the difference anyway.
02:39Ha ha ha ha.
02:41Woo!
02:42Ha ha ha.
02:49Cain, you're finally here.
02:52Don't touch me.
02:53I'm not going with you.
02:57Aria, don't be difficult.
02:58I told you I'd come for you.
03:02Got her!
03:03The Alpha of Greycliff has taken Aria!
03:06Woo!
03:10Three years.
03:12Only to end up with a dead bone.
03:15He never planned on marrying me.
03:17He never intended to marry me.
03:19Getting close to me was just to stabilize Kang Du.
03:22To buy himself time.
03:23To secure his power.
03:25And once he was stabled, a worthless wolf like me was meant to be discarded.
03:44Greycliff's Alpha passed up her.
03:46Let's crash the chase tonight.
03:48Ha ha ha ha.
03:52My stepmother set me up here.
03:55So this was the real trap all along.
04:09Who the hell are you?
04:10That's not how the moonlight chase works.
04:14You planned this.
04:15You're not here to claim me.
04:17You're here to kill me.
04:19Alera, you've always been such a sickly little thing.
04:23I'll make absolutely sure whoever comes for you goes easy on you.
04:34Don't bother asking who we are.
04:36You're just an abandoned mute wolf now, remember?
04:52That's why is he here.
04:56Don't bother asking who we are.
04:56Don't bother asking who we are.
04:56Don't bother asking who we are.
04:57Don't bother asking who we are.
04:58Don't bother asking who we are.
04:59Don't bother asking who we are.
04:59Don't bother asking who we are.
05:01Don't bother asking who we are.
05:02Don't bother asking who we are.
05:02Don't bother asking who we are.
05:02Don't bother asking who we are.
05:05Don't bother asking who we are.
05:07Don't bother asking who we are.
05:10Don't bother asking who we are.
05:17Don't bother asking who we are.
05:21Don't bother asking who we are.
05:43Shhh. It's alright. I've been looking for you forever.
05:47You...
06:16Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
06:17Kiss!
06:19Suddenly, I remembered three years ago. You crossed two mountain ranges like that, smiling.
06:25Your feet were bloody. Your boots were soaked through, but you didn't seem to care at all.
07:00What's a little pain?
07:00You smiled at me back then.
07:03When did it all start to change?
07:05I think...
07:06It was three years ago, the moment my father died.
07:09Allura, you've just lost your father. You look terrible. My stepmother, she has a sharp tongue. I can't bear to
07:17send you back to that. Stay here and rest. Let me go back first, settle everything, and I'll come for
07:22you. I promise.
07:23Back then I believed you. I thought you actually cared. Later, I understood. It was all just lies. Every word
07:33of it.
07:36Aria's activities are mostly around this area. It's closer for her to stay here. Just temporarily.
07:42Sister, don't overthink it. I'm just staying here temporarily. I'll move out as soon as I find a place.
07:49I didn't doubt it. Not once. I didn't know that temporary would last three years.
07:55What about Allura? If she finds out, she's gonna make a scene.
07:59She's all bark and no bite. She'll get over it soon. It was just a chaotic Snatch Bride night, a
08:03momentary slip. She cares about me too much to truly blame me. I'll just smooth things over with her later.
08:17Lucien? Lucien?
08:20Hmm. So it really is you. You joined the trial tonight? Snatching a bride? Hmm. Nice. You've always kept to
08:28yourself. I thought you'd never settle for a mate or tie yourself down. Congratulations.
08:35We're heading out.
08:39Cain, my foot. It hurts a little. I think I hurt the wound on the way here.
08:45What's wrong? Did you hurt your wound on the way here?
08:48I don't know. It just hurts. Let's go. We need to reach your place before dawn.
08:57He really didn't recognize you.
09:04Let's go.
09:14Let's go.
09:16Let's go.
09:17Let's go.
09:22My name is Lucien, Alpha of the Black Ridge.
09:35The Black Ridge has roamed the northern woods for generations. We are the most ferocious fighters among the three great
09:41wolf packs. Our territory is remote, cold, isolated from the world. Few outsiders ever set foot here. After I came
09:49of age, I gained a perception that sets me apart from other wolves. My sense of smell. My smell. My
09:55smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My
09:55smell. My smell. My smell. My smell. My smell.
09:55Can detect something ordinary wolves cannot. The scent of a fate mark. I searched for that scent. For over a
10:06decade. On you, I found it. Fate mark? He's been searching for me. For over a decade?
10:14When I was very young, the elders of my pack told me that on the day the White Moon Bloodline
10:19reemerged, it would bring unperiled Eld Prosperity to the Black Ridge. I've been waiting for that scent. Waiting for sixteen
10:27whole years.
10:29White Moon Bloodline? I've never heard that term before.
10:32Your birth mother came from a long-extinct snowfield wolf tribe. They were the most devoted believers of the Moon
10:39Goddess. In their veins flowed the most prival blessing of the Moon.
10:44So that's it. So I'm not a born failure. I'm not a mute wolf that even the Moon Goddess refused
10:50to wake. This whole time, it was her. My stepmother.
11:06In that moment, I felt a door quietly open in my consciousness.
11:15You saw it, didn't you? That's your bloodline. It's been waiting for you.
11:20Alera, listen to me. Whether you transform or not, you are my Luna.
11:29The Moon Goddess doesn't put the wrong mate into a wolf's nose. The moment I caught your scent, I knew.
11:35You're the one I've been waiting for my entire life.
11:43This is the first time in my life, someone has chosen me so firmly. The first time someone has told
11:49me, I'm not worthless. That I deserve to be loved.
12:08She should be here by now.
12:10Knowing her temper, she should be charging in right about now.
12:14She'll shift into her wolf form, launch at me, claw at me, bite me, demanding to know why I took
12:19Aria, why I lied to her for three years.
12:22She'll make a scene. She'll cry. She'll be hysterical. That's fine. I can take it all.
12:27Once she's done, I'll tell her the truth. I'll give her the bone token. She'll forgive me.
12:34After all, she's loved me for three years.
12:37Alpha, everything is arranged. Kangdu didn't follow. And the elders? They've all accepted Aria's status as the new Luna.
12:45Hmm.
12:46Alpha, you've been standing there all night. Maybe get some rest?
12:49As for Allura, even if she's coming, she won't get here until daybreak.
12:59Lord Kain! Something terrible has happened! Something terrible!
13:05Where is she? Where?
13:09Miss Alara. Miss Alara. She... she was taken by the Alpha of Blackridge, right on the hunting grounds last night,
13:15in front of all three great packs!
13:24What did you say?
13:25It's true. That Lucian from Blackridge, no one knows why. He suddenly broke into Aria's cave and carried Miss Alara
13:31away on his back. She was covered in blood. She didn't scream. She didn't cry. She didn't fight back. She
13:35just lay on Lucian's back. And from beginning to end, she never once looked back towards Hans Kondo.
13:44She loved me so much. She waited for me for three years. How could she leave with another man? And
13:48of all people, that ruthless, murderous Blackridge Alpha. She should hate me. She should come tear me apart. She should
13:54make me give her an explanation. But she... she didn't even look back. Not once.
14:00Kain!
14:18This is real living bone. I carved it myself. From my own rib.
14:24I thought, after she let out all her anger, I would take out the real bone token and tell her
14:28everything. I married Aria for Greyclom, for the entire northern pack. Once I took control of all the northern lands,
14:33I would welcome her back with the highest honors. Give her the only glory. The only place by my side.
14:39But she didn't even give me the chance to explain. She didn't even... looked back.
14:56It's okay. She has a fiery temper. Once she's done throwing her tantrum, she'll be fine when she calms down.
15:05I'll go bring her back.
15:32She's different from Kain. Kain was always staring at the back of my neck, at that clescent mark.
15:36Waiting. Waiting. Hoping. That I would finally transform. That I would finally become his qualified Luna. But Lucian? He looks
15:42at me.
15:42Just me. Not the mark. Not the transformation. Just... me.
15:47Whether I transform or not, in his eyes, I am just Allura.
15:58Do you believe you?
16:00Do you believe you?
16:08Do you believe me?
16:15Do you believe you?
16:17Do you believe you?
16:19Make me up.
16:21Give me back.
16:25the herb your stepmother used on you it's called moonfall vine starting from a very small dose
16:31and continuing for over a decade enough to make the wolf nature of even the purest blooded pup
16:36sleep forever if your birth mother were still alive she would never have let anyone lay a
16:41finger on you my stepmother said my birth mother lost her mind after i was born fled into the
16:49desolate northern borderlands and was never seen again i realize now that this was nothing but a
16:54fabricated tale she didn't just want to destroy me she also sought to tarnish my mother's reputation
