00:56raised by the luna from that moment on i became the luna who could not give birth sarah and caleb
01:01shared a life full of warmth two sons two daughters everyone in the city knew sarah no one remembered
01:08the true luna existed a cold calm settled over me i reached over and swapped my cup for caleb's
01:15i lowered my lashes let a soft flush color my cheeks i'd like us to swap cups my lord
01:22i heard it makes the bond last longer that's right the hostess clapped me me and you that's how love
01:28lasts caleb raised his cup we drank the guests cheered the cups hadn't even hit the table before
01:36the doors burst open oh my you already drank that is when she saw the empty cup in front of

02:04sarah we grew up together she's always been a little reckless don't make a scene the room went still
02:09caleb stood stepped in front of sarah what are you doing here i told you today was off limits
02:14miss sarah what exactly did you put in my cup my attendant now my lord i wasn't trying to hurt
02:20anyone i saw someone selling a fertility blocking potion i just wanted to scare her a little make
02:26her more obedient to you i planned to rush in before you drank but i tripped outside i pressed a
02:31hand to my chest a fertility blocking potion that cup was a gift from the high council i looked at
02:36the
02:36guards take her sarah buried her face i swear i didn't mean it and besides who knows if the
02:42potion even works it could be fake are you gonna have me punished for something that might not even
02:46be real caleb held her gently alara sarah's young she didn't mean to go this far you're my luna
02:52bonded properly even if you drank it i won't abandon you your place is secure sarah's tear-reddened
02:59eyes all my fault she hit the floor with a thud i'm so sorry luna since the luna can no
03:04longer
03:04carry pups i'll enter the pack as a lesser mate every pup i carry will be raised under her name
03:11and just like last time this time i wasn't going to be a fool i let my face you tampered
03:17with the
03:17high council's bonding cup to block the alpha's bloodline that's a crime against the pack that's
03:22a death sentence she wasn't trying to harm anyone are you really calling for execution over a potion
03:27that might not even work she poisoned your luna in front of the whole pack i turned to face sarah
03:31and you're defending her remember who i am don't act like what she did means nothing what's done is
03:38done what more do you want caleb's expression darkened she didn't do it on purpose the commotion
03:43spread luna alpha's mother says this cannot escalate sarah will be punished but tonight is the binding
03:49ceremony the pack's reputation is at stake of course it didn't matter it wasn't happening to them
03:54do you truly think what she did was a small thing caleb was still murmuring to sarah he barely
04:00glanced at me she'll copy the pack conduct codes 10 times no more disruption i almost laughed good
04:05thing i wasn't the one who drank the drugged cup a female guest nearby when you should still have the
04:10healer check on you yes maybe there's still something that can be done sarah immediately cut in calling a
04:15healer on a binding night is bad luck sarah's right wait until tomorrow i looked at caleb one last time
04:20my lord are you truly not going to hold her accountable she was joking it got out of hand
04:25she's offered to carry pups in your name what else do you want you're clinging to one cup
04:30ruining your own bonding night if you don't want to be luna step aside i smiled i ran one finger
04:35along
04:35the rim of the cup then i looked petty everything i've done tonight has been for you my lord because
04:41the one who just drank from my cup was you caleb's face turned gray what are you saying
04:47i pointed at the cup in front of him powder still clung to the rim plain as anything
04:51when we drank the union cup i suggested you swap to seal a longer bond you agreed don't you remember
04:58the cup i drank was yours the cup you drank was the one sarah laced sarah went rigid she stared
05:05at
05:05me then at the cups she snatched one up shoved it at caleb my lord is this the cup you
05:14drank from
05:15caleb said nothing the color had left his face sarah screamed spun toward me she did this on purpose
05:23that cup was meant for her she switched it deliberately she's trying to destroy you
05:29yes that cup had been meant for me in my last life i drank it lost everything and when he
05:35was done with
05:35us he had me poisoned his words from my last life still echoed alara you're the luna be gracious
05:44sarah will carry pups for you what more could you want i spent years watching them build a life
05:49together while i faded away watching them raise pubs share warmth share a future while my family gave
05:55everything for caleb's rise my father and brothers fought on the front lines died in roguel's fight all
06:01to put him in power this time sarah put the potion in the cup caleb drank it let's see if
06:06he'd be as
06:07gracious as he'd expected me to be i turned to sarah do you understand what this means
06:14the alpha just drank a bloodline blocking potion that is a crime against the pack
06:21punishable by execution of your entire bloodline i wasn't trying to hurt him that was meant for you
06:27i stepped forward and slapped her across the face the crack rang out sharp and clean
06:37you dared to bring that potion into this bonding ceremony i am the luna of this pack and now that
06:43potion is the alpha's blood do you have any idea what comes next caleb lurched to his feet get the
06:54but my lord i press my fingers to my lips didn't you say calling a healer on a bonding night
06:59was bad
06:59luck weren't we supposed to wait until tomorrow the senior attendant's face shifted see sarah drugging
07:05the alpha's bloodline this is grounds for full pack execution the bonding chamber collapsed into chaos
07:10the news hit the main hall before anyone could stop it the pack healer arrived at a run
07:14so did my parents and my brother mom dad stand up for me sarah tried to drug me
07:22caleb took her side said i wasn't fit to be luna and now the potion is in the alpha's blood
07:27he may never sire pups i cried until my face was soaked but inside something warm loomed
07:32my parents were alive my brother was standing right next to me this time i was going to protect them
07:38i would never let caleb hurt them my brother's jaw went tight no gray speech now caleb funny you had
07:45plenty of words when it was my sister's cup we don't smile at this kind of disrespect sarah was
07:49all for ease weeping openly my lord i never meant to hurt you it was alara she switched the cups
07:55the healer straightened exhaled slowly maximum dose my lord i'm afraid there's no reversal your bloodline is
08:05gone that dose was meant for me sarah made sure it would work caleb's vision went black he nearly
08:11collapsed what did it mean for an alpha to lose his bloodline it meant his path to becoming king
08:17it was over caleb's eyes broke i'll kill her then he grabbed my arm alara at least i still have
08:24you
08:24i pulled free my lord you told me i could step aside so i'm telling you now i don't want
08:31to be
08:31your luna sarah made this mess not me exactly my attendant had already told my family everything
08:37when it was my sister's cup you took sarah's side now the poison's in you suddenly it matters
08:44you're an alpha act like it caleb's face paled then his mother isabella arrived my son what happened
08:52the attendant stepped forward and laid out every detail dare to harm my son have sarah flogged to death
08:58sarah's voice broke through the chaos caleb we grew up together i never hurt you it was alara
09:05she did this caleb stood frozen unable to stand seeing her in pain
09:12drag her out isabella's voice cut through the room like a blade what omega thinks she can claim
09:19an alpha you can't touch me i'm carrying his pup please let me live the room stopped caleb shoved
09:26through the crowd and grabbed her sarah what did you say sarah collapsed into him i'm two months
09:31along my lord this is your pup are you going to let them take us both she'd committed a capital
09:38offense but with caleb unable to hire pups she was his only chance at an heir no one moved caleb
09:44looked
09:44at his mother she's carrying my only pup you can't kill her isabella gestured the healer stepped
09:50forward confirmed two months pregnant isabella looked at me luna let sarah enter the estate
09:56her pup gets registered under your name agreed i dropped to my knees caleb and i never completed
10:02our bonding let her be luna i'm asking to dissolve the agreement please grant this let her go
10:10caleb stared at me like he hadn't understood is this because i can't give you pups no i met his
10:15eyes i'm leaving because of you she has your only heir now this is what you wanted isn't it
10:21you're my luna i won't allow you to leave my father stood another woman's pup before the bonding night
10:27even ended you've shamed my family end sarah's pregnancy i held his gaze or i leave caleb's voice
10:34broke that's my heir how dare you how dare i i met his eyes you created this not me caleb
10:42finally
10:42broke he sank down where he stood beta was not a small power my father and brother commanded hundreds
10:48of thousands of fighters caleb's mother couldn't afford to make them a permanent enemy she looked
10:53at caleb with icy disgust then in front of every witness she dissolved our bonding agreement the news
10:59spread throughout the city within hours the king was furious he summoned caleb and tore
11:04into him do you know how much i worked to secure beta's alliance and you let an omega destroy it
11:09fix things with elara if you can't have her make sure no one else does if another alpha takes her
11:15or if sarah delivers a girl your path to king ends there
11:21caleb returned to his estate sarah rushed
11:24did i get you in trouble scold me i deserve it i was jealous i was scared you'd choose her
11:30over me
11:31but elara switched the cups on purpose you know i love you i'd never hurt you
11:36she was right if elata hadn't swapped the cups none of this would have happened
11:40a cold flicker moved through caleb's eyes he thought of what his mother had said
11:44if elara couldn't bond with him she couldn't bond with anyone else
11:47whatever alliance she brought if it wasn't in his corner it was a threat
11:50i went home with my parents and brother the moment the doors closed my father's face turned grave
11:55the dissolved bonding will stir things up fast the next king isn't decided yet within days
12:02other alpha will be sending matchmakers my mother wiped her eyes
12:06my elara she'll become a piece in their power games whoever bonds her locks beta army to their cause
12:13then i remembered in my last life my father and brother died in a rogue fight caleb arranged false
12:19testimony accused them of treason of conspiring with enemy packs only one person refused to believe
12:25it beta wreathed callowen he said openly he would not accept that my father and brother had betrayed the
12:32pack he spent years gathering proof cleared their names i had been trapped inside the estate then my
12:39attendant told me what he'd done all i could do was bow my head and pray for him thanking him
12:44in silence
12:44i looked up at my father and brother dad i want to bond with beta ruth calloway
12:49my father and brother froze then my father burst out laughing he clapped his hands together
12:55roots unbonded powerful and no alpha dares cross him you'd be safe my brother's eyes went wide
13:02wait didn't he ask about you a year ago before alpha caleb stepped in he wanted you back then
13:08my father slammed the table no time to waste i'm going to his estate right now before i could get
13:13a word in
13:14he was gone my mother stamped her foot what family sends the bride side running over to propose first
13:19less than two days after the bonding dissolved alpha dorian showed up at our door matchmaker full retinue
13:25everything then caleb arrived right behind him caleb looked at dorian and laughed coldly
13:31dorian alara was my fated mate what exactly are you doing here
13:37dorian laughed back caleb your bonding with alara is dissolved the whole city knows why shouldn't i come
13:44alara is the finest young lady in this city you didn't know what you had that doesn't mean the
13:48rest of us can't appreciate her caleb's expression turned sharp
13:53drop the act dorian everyone knows why you want her alara was mine still is back off the two of
14:01them
14:02stood in the courtyard trading barbs then noise broke out from the street drums a procession people
14:07outside pushing to see what's all the commotion another suitor at the iron guard estate look at
14:14that how many gifts is that that's an enormous dowry procession the crowd outside kept growing the
14:21voices kept rising dorian and caleb both turned toward the gate a matchmaker in formal white robes
14:26walked through the entrance behind her came a man in a deep navy coat tall composed the kind of
14:32presence that filled a room without trying beta reed calloway here to ask for your daughter's hand
14:38dorian and caleb both went still the man who had walked in was beta rett calloway
14:45my parents came out from the inner courtyard please come in come in then my mother glanced
14:49at the two alphas standing there and smiled sweetly my word travels fast
14:55did both of you come to celebrate our happy news we just agreed on the match caleb stared at
15:02rett his brow creased hard since when did beta calloway have any connection to alara
15:06rett smiled her father raised me like his own bonding with his daughter is an honor i don't
15:11take lightly when i heard the agreement dissolved i came immediately alara agreed that's all that matters
15:19caleb's jaw tightened she agreed impossible why would she agree to you i stepped out from the inner courtyard
15:29i cut caleb off before he could continue alpha caleb watch your words faifa calloway has defended
15:36this pack's borders for years in my eyes he's a hero if not for men like him where would your
15:41comfortable life in this city come from something shifted in his expression alara caleb looked at me
15:47you pushed to dissolve our bonding was it because of him were you already involved with riet behind my back
15:56i felt fury rise in my chest i was about to speak rhett stepped forward he placed himself between me
16:01and
16:01caleb what's your words alpha caleb alara is not sarah you may tolerate women who chase taken men
16:09and hide pregnancies i don't and i won't let anyone stole her name push this further i have plenty to
16:18say
16:18to the king myself caleb stepped forward his expression darkened is that so
16:25let's see whose word the king takes imperial decree make way caleb's face broke into relief that must be
16:33my mother she went to my father to reinstate the bonding alara i told you you can only be my
16:41luna
16:42i won't let you bond with anyone else the royal messenger walked in scroll in hand expression bright by the
16:48authority of the king alara is hereby bonded by decree to beta reek calloway the union shall be
16:56completed on the next auspicious date retin i knelt to receive the decree
17:02caleb's voice cracked open that's not possible the king knew i wanted her how could he give her to
17:08rate nobody answered him beta calloway has an outstanding record sounds like a fine match to me
17:18i'll come by for a drink at the bonding celebration and he glanced sideways at caleb and smiled you and
17:26the new lunar of your estate is an omega's daughter and expecting congratulations on that every word
17:34landed like a slap the whole city knew caleb had lost his bloodline but hearing it said out loud like
17:39this casually in front of a crowd that was something else entirely though i do wonder
17:48would it be a girl or a boy if sarah failed to give birth to a girl caleb would have
17:54nothing left
17:55i had my father's scouts watching the kieran estate sarah and her mother were quietly pulling
17:59pregnant women into the estate under the excuse of finding a nursemaid for the pup i sat down with
18:04my father my brother and red it's not just about finding a nursemaid i think they're planning to swap
18:10the pups right if sarah's pup was a girl and one of those nursemaids had a boy the swap would
18:18be simple
18:20i'll put people on the estate if he actually tries to pass off another bloodline as his own that's
18:27going to be very interesting caleb had the strongest claim to the king but if his pup was a girl
18:31that
18:32claim was gone they would never let that happen without a fight the city shifted and churned on the
18:37day sarah went into labor the nursemaids housed inside the estate were quietly dosed with something to
18:42force their labor early after a full day and night of agony sarah delivered she barely had the strength to
18:47lift her head a girl a girl useless you already ruined my bloodline and now this i should kill you
19:02wait i planned for this the nursemaid is all delivered we just need the one with a boy
19:06one cup of poison for the nurse to raid after blame complications no one will ever know find out
19:11which nurse to raid had a boy bring him to me minutes later a male pup was brought in caleb
19:19took
19:19him looked at him for a long moment then he picked up the girl pressed his hand over her face
19:25held it
19:26there didn't let go one breath the girl was gone take her to the nursemaid's room give the nurse
19:37tray a cup of poison tell them it was complications tomorrow morning box her up and take her out
19:43the next day the news reached the palace caleb had a son caleb's mother was ecstatic good now i need
19:50to find him a proper luna once the pup is registered under the new luna's name everything falls into
19:55place sarah had assumed carrying the air would make her untouchable that with caleb unable to sire
20:01more pups the luna seat would naturally become hers instead caleb and his mother announced a search for
20:06a new luna sarah remained a lesser mate not even a favored one she stormed toward caleb why i gave
20:13you
20:13an heir why are you choosing someone else didn't even look up he laughed softly you ruined me
20:18and you want to be luna status family power you have none of it nothing you said you didn't care
20:24you said i was the only one you promised
20:31that was then behave yourself sarah you're still the pup's mother be grateful for that
20:40the search for a new luna has been concluded i have chosen jade harrow as the new luna of kyrian's
20:46estate the decree was read aloud before the entire celebration hall sarah's face went white
20:52sarah just gave birth she needs rest we have a farmstead with hot springs let her recover there
20:57she can return when she's ready pretty words all of them hollow what she really meant was simple
21:02get her out of this estate and how long she stayed gone would depend entirely on the new luna
21:07sarah's face drained of all color she had grown up inside this estate she knew exactly what this
21:12game looked like keep the air discard the mother a trick as old as high pack politics
21:17caleb knew too but he agreed without hesitation
21:21my lord i can't leave you in the pub i won't go
21:27sarah looked at him something cracking open behind her eyes
21:32caleb's voice was flat luna's decision sarah go rest caleb didn't even look at her jade's smile
21:39never wavered the pup will be registered under my name i'll raise him well sarah's face turned to ash
21:46she had given everything for this man and this pup and in the span of one afternoon both had been
21:52she screamed she screamed she's taking my pup from me she wants to get rid of me
21:59you know what this is don't you care about what we had don't you care about our son her voice
22:06dropped
22:06slightly on those last words a warning buried underneath caleb's eyes went cold was that a
22:12threat was sarah actually threatening to expose what they'd done with enough someone gag her and get her
22:19out of here it's the pup's hundredth day stop this scene sarah fought with everything
22:24you can't silence me i'll talk i'll say everything she almost got the words out
22:31then dorian stepped forward let her go looks to me like sarah has something she needs to say
22:39caleb's jaw was locked tight none of your businesses dorian smiled lightly
22:45i don't think so dorian's men peeled the guards off sarah and stepped back sarah dropped to her
22:50knees her eyes were filled with despair and fury that pup isn't mine i delivered a girl
22:59caleb killed her himself that boy belongs to a nursemaid he switched them the words hit the room
23:05like a stone through glass silence then the entire room cracked open caleb killed his own daughter he
23:11swapped the pup so he mixed another bloodline into alpha's line no wonder the day after the pup was
23:17born word came out of the estate that a nursemaid had died of complications one coffin carried out
23:23caleb's foot slammed into sarah's ribs dorian raised one hand easy caleb if he's truly your blood a
23:32simple test will confirm it no need to get emotional caleb stepped back i don't need to confirm anything
23:37then the king spoke caleb this touches the integrity of our bloodline a test costs nothing
23:44come forward bring the child caleb's mother nearly crumpled where she sat caleb's face turned to ash
23:52the pack healer stepped forward with a needle drew blood from caleb's finger before the pup's blood
23:58was even taken caleb was already on the ground please forgive me it wasn't my idea it was sarah she
24:06planned everything she told me to do it he pushed every piece of blame onto her wiped his hands clean
24:12it didn't matter the swap was already exposed caleb had lost the king's trust completely the king looked
24:18at caleb with something colder than anger caleb no bloodline no integrity attempting to pass a foreign
24:26bloodline off as ours unforgivable confine him he doesn't leave without my word sarah for crimes against
24:35the pack's bloodline execute immediately she had been spared once because of the pup she carried
24:41now the pup was gone she had nothing left to offer sarah's eyes rolled back she collapsed guards dragged
24:48her toward the holding cells to await execution caleb was finished an alpha with no bloodline no standing
24:56no way out confined to his estate with no hope of return
25:02as for how dorian had appeared at exactly the right moment red only smiled when i asked i leaked
25:08what caleb did to every alpha who'd listen they all wanted something to use against him dorian just got
25:16there first so dorian delivered the final blow that destroyed caleb i let out a long breath the nightmare
25:23of my last life was finally over my parents were here my brother was here and there was someone who
25:31had promised to protect me for the rest of my life on the day of our bonding rhett took my
25:35hand and helped
25:36me into the ceremonial carriage his hands were large steady he held mine without letting go he leaned close
25:43and spoke quietly alone to freda i've been gone you i smiled beneath the ceremonial veil i wasn't afraid i
25:51settled into the carriage music rose outside the carriage lifted smoothly carrying me forward toward
25:57everything waiting ahead
