00:00David, sign it.
00:03From now on, I'll vanish from your sight forever.
00:07You want a divorce? Have you lost your mind?
00:11You think you're worthy of divorcing me without me? You're nothing!
00:17David gives you a life of luxury, and you don't know what's good for you.
00:22Wanting a divorce? That's utterly stupid.
00:25A good life?
00:27Taking care of the baby alone day and night?
00:30Holding her for IV drips?
00:33While I'm sick and burning with fever?
00:37Is this what you call a good life?
00:39I had a fever of 103 degrees.
00:41Holding the baby while getting IV fluids. Calling you for help?
00:45Weedrie, were you doing? What the hell were you doing?
00:53David, please. Come see the baby.
00:55It's because of what she did that this happened. I've sprained my back so badly. It hurts so much.
01:01Don't pay that person any mind. I'll massage it for you and it'll stop hurting.
01:06Do you know you were wrong? If you do, get home and apologize now.
01:09I'm getting IV fluids for my fever. I really can't handle it anymore.
01:14Can you please come see the baby?
01:16If you can't take care of the baby, that's because you're useless. Stop bothering me.
01:20It hurts. Be gentler.
01:23David, what are you doing? Who the hell are you with?
01:27If you're sick, go see a doctor. Stop bothering David. Call again and I'll block you.
01:33I sent my mom to take care of you. What else are you unhappy about?
01:37Your mom, when I gave birth, she said it was a girl and left immediately.
01:4110 days without cooking a single meal or helping with the baby, once.
01:45Is this what you call taking care of me?
01:52I've been taking care of your ice the whole time.
01:54Taking care of the baby is exhausting and she's still so picky and difficult to please.
02:05Is the baby in your arms right now?
02:08Is your mother actually taking care of me and the child?
02:11Why are you there? You set me up on purpose!
02:19This is what you call care?
02:21Since the day our baby was born, have you changed a single diaper?
02:25Have you prepared a single bottle?
02:27Have you done one damn thing a father should do?
02:31Raising a child is your duty as a wife.
02:34You occupy the position of Mrs. Chen, yet you can't even handle such trivial matters.
02:39And you still have the nerve to complain.
02:46Divorce!
02:46Perfect timing.
02:48I'll give you this piece of trash David Chin for free, you human dumpster.
02:53Don't you love picking up secondhand goods?
02:55I'll grant you your wish.
03:04Have you lost your mind?
03:06Taking care of the child is your responsibility, and you dare to hit someone?
03:19Married women are such a hassle.
03:22Brothers are so much easier to deal with.
03:38These past three years, Serena Blake has been living in hell.
03:42Tormented by David Chen's family, suffering endless grievances.
03:50Ethan Blake, go bring Serena Blake home immediately.
03:53Anyone who dares bully a daughter of the Blake family, I'll ruin them completely and make them pay a devastating
03:57price.
03:58Mom, don't worry.
03:59I will definitely get justice for Serena Blake and make David Chen and those people pay back a hundredfold.
04:11Mom, Ethan, I missed you so much.
04:15Serena, Mom's here.
04:17No one will ever dare to hurt you again.
04:19Don't be afraid.
04:21It's okay.
04:22It's okay.
04:25Mom, I've been so wrong.
04:29You were childhood were always the princess in my palm.
04:34How did you end up tortured like this?
04:39Some passerby found you fainted and sent you to the hospital.
04:43David never showed up from start to finish.
04:45He doesn't care whether you live or die.
04:50Where's my baby?
04:51Where is my child?
04:53The baby has a fever.
04:55We've around the best doctors and the nursing and infant care specialist are watching her 24 when.
05:00You just focus on recovering.
05:02Don't worry about anything.
05:04It's all my fault.
05:05I was too foolish making the child suffer with me.
05:08It's not your fault.
05:09It's all David's fault.
05:11That ungrateful, heartless bastard.
05:15You're the heiress of Blake Group, my most beloved daughter.
05:18No matter when, your brother and I will always stand behind you.
05:25Dr. Jang, did something happen to the baby?
05:28Please tell me the truth.
05:30I'm ready for the worst.
05:34Serena, the DNA report shows that you and this child have no biological relationship whatsoever.
05:43Impossible.
05:44Absolutely impossible.
05:46I carried her for 10 months, risked my life giving birth to her and she never left my side.
05:55You think I became Luna because of Marcus?
05:59Did you ever consider you've got it backwards?
06:03That mouth.
06:04That face.
06:05I hate them both.
06:06You're the one with the real gift.
06:08So what?
06:09I have your memories.
06:10I can play the chosen one easily too.
06:12All those years hiding your power was such a waste.
06:15Don't worry.
06:16I'll make good use of it.
06:18Natalia, touch her again and you won't be my mistress.
06:22Your Highnessness, this is my father's estate, not yet your territory.
06:25Aurora provoked me.
06:26I was defending myself.
06:27Do you have a problem with that?
06:28Do you think father will still favor you if he finds you bullying Aurora?
06:33Bullying?
06:33She struck first.
06:35Let's get father and see who he'll side with.
06:38Marcus knew damn well father would back me.
06:40He pulled Aurora out of the room instead.
06:42Then I heard Aurora's pitiful voice.
06:45Marcus, I'm scared of her.
06:48Don't worry.
06:48Once we're mates, she won't dare harm you.
06:52Natalia!
06:53Aurora is gone!
06:55I set down my brush calmly.
06:59Gone or hiding?
07:12This isn't funny!
07:14The mating ceremony is in two days!
07:18She'll turn up.
07:19Probably wants Marcus to rescue her so she seems more valuable.
07:22How can you be so cold about your own sister?
07:25Half-sister.
07:26And she's the one playing games.
07:28But I helped search anyway.
07:30No point in making father suffer.
07:32We found Aurora in an abandoned warehouse on the edge of pack territory.
07:47No witnesses or evidence.
07:49No suspects.
07:50Just Aurora looking traumatized.
07:52Father apologized profusely for the security failure.
07:55I watched the whole performance with detached interest.
07:58On the mating ceremony day, the entire pack turned out to celebrate.
08:02Marcus and Aurora stood on the palace balcony, looking perfect together.
08:07Miss Vale, you don't look heartbroken.
08:09Most women would be devastated.
08:11Your childhood friend, choosing your bastard sister over you.
08:15Most women didn't spend five years building a man's empire only to have him carve the flesh off their face
08:20and feed them to the packs.
08:21The moon goddess prophesied that the next luna was born with the gift of prophecy and the moon mark.
08:27So I covered that moon mark on my forehead under makeup and concealment spells.
08:31But my half-sister Aurora painted a fake moon mark on her forehead every day.
08:36That's why Aurora became the mate of the alpha heir, Silas.
08:39Meanwhile, I chose to mate with my childhood sweetheart, the prince, Marcus.
08:44For five years, I used my gift of foresight to help Marcus rise to power.
08:52The night he claimed the throne, I washed away the concealer and revealed the truth.
08:57Natalia! How dare you fake the moon mark!
09:00He lost his mind.
09:01She should have been my luna.
09:03Every time I fucked you, for the past five years I felt disgust.
09:08Now die for stealing her fate!
09:11When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the mating ceremony day.
09:19Marcus burst into the court and interrupted the ritual.
09:23A moon mark proves nothing!
09:25How can the mark make Aurora the chosen one?
09:27I'm invoking my father's blank decree.
09:29I claim Aurora Val as my mate!
09:32Nobles exchanged stunned looks and whispered.
09:36One elder wanted to speak, but I caught his eye and shook my head.
09:39That decree was compensation for C-Alpha's life.
09:42I never imagined he'd wasted on this.
09:45In the last life, Marcus needed that decree to secure the alpha throne.
09:49Now he used this trump card only for Aurora.
09:52Natalia!
09:53What's your take on this arrangement?
09:55The alpha king asked me.
09:57I dropped into a perfect curtsy.
10:00If Prince Marcus favors my half-sister, it's an honor for House Vale.
10:04Marcus looked at me with conflicted, guilty, but determined.
10:08I'm not asking to strip my brother as heir.
10:13Aurora and I are in love.
10:15She's an illegitimate Omega.
10:16She can't handle the pressure of being the future king's fated mate.
10:21Please, father, grant us.
10:23The whole kingdom knows you and Natalia have been inseparable since childhood.
10:27This sudden change of heart.
10:29I've always seen her as my sister.
10:31People just assumed otherwise.
10:33I almost laughed out loud.
10:35What a fucking sister.
10:37Alpha heir Silas carried the moon goddess's blessing.
10:40He is the true future alpha.
10:42Without my help, Marcus can never defeat Silas.
10:45If he wanted to gamble everything on my half-sister, I would let him hang himself.
10:50Marcus's servant blocked my path.
10:52Miss Vale, Prince Marcus summons you.
10:55I was led to a tower room.
10:56It was so cold and dark.
10:58When I was shivering and about to lose my temperature, Marcus showed up.
11:02When Aurora begged for your help once, you treated her like this.
11:06How's it feel?
11:08In the past life, I'd stopped Aurora from interrupting him.
11:11During crucial battle planning, she waited in the snow and ice for the whole day.
11:15I know you're reborn too, Natalia.
11:18Even you are cruel and jealous.
11:20But we were mates in the last life.
11:23I won't be cruel.
11:24If you can't let me go, I'll make you my mistress.
11:28The best thing for both of us is to go our separate ways.
11:30I looked at his face.
11:31If anyone's owed revenge here, it's me.
11:34Not the other way around.
11:35Marcus's expression darkened.
11:37I moved toward the door, and he grabbed my wrist.
11:40I overreacted when I killed you.
11:42But if you hadn't painted that moon mark pretending to be Aurora, how would I have lost control?
11:46If you behave this time, as long as you don't covet the queen's position, you could be my favored mistress.
11:53We're done.
11:53You will only be a stranger to me.
11:55The moment I got home, a royal decree arrived.
11:58My father pushed me forward with pride.
12:00Accept the decree.
12:02Prime Alpha Vale, you're mistaken.
12:04This decree is for your second daughter, Aurora.
12:07This message spreads throughout the whole pack soon.
12:09I became the center of the scandal.
12:12Everyone knew I stayed by Marcus's side for years, but now Aurora became his mate.
12:19Guess Natalia was doing all the chasing.
12:22Prime Alpha raised such a classy daughter, but look how she turned out, throwing herself at him like a simp.
12:29No wonder the prince didn't want her.
12:32The next morning, Marcus sent ten carriages of extravagant gifts to our estate.
12:37It confirms his love for Nick's even more.
12:40Father found me in my study, reading like nothing had happened.
12:45Natalia, I don't know what went down between you and the prince, but public opinion has turned vicious.
12:50I set down my book.
12:52I am okay.
12:53Dad, don't worry.
12:54Father sighed heavily.
12:57I should never have brought Aurora back from the border.
13:00Before he could finish, Aurora burst through the door.
13:03You always favored Natalia.
13:04When we were little, you sent me to live with distant wolf relatives.
13:07Now Prince Marcus loves me, and you want to ruin it and hand the chance to her?
13:11I'll prove I'm the daughter you should be proud of, even if I'm not as noble as my sister.
13:15She stormed out, and my father sent guards to tail her.
13:18They reported she went straight to Marcus's estate.
13:21I placed a hand on father's shoulder.
13:24There's something more urgent.
13:25A massive earthquake will hit the western peaks you need to prepare.
13:29Father went rigid.
13:30I'll go see the king at once.
13:33Marcus will handle the prevention.
13:35Let him take it.
13:36You focus on organizing relief.
13:38Father looked uncertain, but chose to trust me.
13:41Marcus wanted the alpha throne.
13:43What I didn't expect was that he'd hand all the credit to Aurora.
13:46Within days, rumors spread like wildfire.
13:49The moon goddess's prophecy was dug up.
13:51Aurora Vale can see the future.
13:53Now people shook their heads when I was mentioned.
13:55What a pity.
13:56Natalia was once the most respected young wolf.
13:58Right?
13:58Pretty, educated, talented in every way.
14:00But she's nothing compared to her gifted sister.
14:01That's when Aurora cornered me in the study.
14:03She pressed her hand over mine and-
14:05Sister, I think it's my turn to be Luna now.
14:15You think I became Luna because of Marcus?
14:18Did you ever consider you've got it backwards?
14:22That mouth.
14:24That face.
14:25I hate them both.
14:26You're the one with the real gift.
14:28So what?
14:28I have your memories.
14:29I can play the chosen one easily, too.
14:32All those years hiding your power was such a waste.
14:34Don't worry.
14:35I'll make good use of it.
14:38Natalia!
14:38Touch her again and you won't be my mistress.
14:41Your Highnessness.
14:42This is my father's estate.
14:43Not yet your territory.
14:45Aurora provoked me.
14:46I was defending myself.
14:47Do you have a problem with that?
14:48Do you think father will still favor you if he finds you bullying Aurora?
14:52Bullying?
14:53She struck first.
14:55Let's get father and see who he'll side with.
14:57Marcus knew damn well father would back me.
15:00He pulled Aurora out of the room instead.
15:01Then I heard Aurora's pitiful voice.
15:04Marcus.
15:05I'm scared of her.
15:07Don't worry.
15:08Once we're mates, she won't dare harm you.
15:12Natalia!
15:13Aurora is gone!
15:15I set down my brush calmly.
15:18Gone or hiding?
15:32This isn't funny!
15:34The mating ceremony is in two days!
15:37She'll turn up.
15:39Probably wants Marcus to rescue her so she seems more valuable.
15:42How can you be so cold about your own sister?
15:44Half-sister.
15:45And she's the one playing games.
15:47But I helped search anyway.
15:49No point in making father suffer.
15:52We found Aurora in an abandoned warehouse on the edge of pack territory.
15:59Who did this to you?
16:02I don't know!
16:04They grabbed me from behind!
16:06No witnesses or evidence.
16:09No suspects.
16:10Just Aurora looking traumatized.
16:12Father apologized profusely for the security failure.
16:15I watched the whole performance with detached interest.
16:18On the mating ceremony day, the entire pack turned out to celebrate.
16:21Marcus and Aurora stood on the palace balcony, looking perfect together.
16:26Miss Vale, you don't look heartbroken.
16:29Most women would be devastated.
16:31Your childhood friend.
16:33Choosing your bastard sister over you.
16:35Most women didn't spend five years building a man's empire only to have him carve the flesh off their face
16:39and feed them to the packs.
17:02That sent sparks of pleasure through me.
17:04Suddenly, Dominic pulled back, picked up the dropped thumb, and used the cold metal butt to lift my chin, forcing
17:11my eyes to meet his.
17:13The icy barrel pressed against my jaw as his thumb brushed roughly over my swollen lip.
17:18Every heart injury grinding against me in an insistent rhythm.
17:21Dominic was hard for me, but he pushed me away anyway.
17:25The gun was loaded, pressed against my chin.
17:27Dominic's voice was low and restrained.
17:29I won't be the other man.
17:31You know I don't have anyone in my life.
17:34Looked much happier after I said that, but I knew he wouldn't turn me down.
17:38Sure enough, he pinned me to the wall, his eyes dark and unfathomable.
17:42He looked like he wanted to rip me to pieces.
17:45After a long while, he laughed softly.
17:49Don't regret this.
17:51His phone rang and ran an ocean without anything to support me.
17:55The phone was still buzzing.
17:56The screen lit up.
17:57My blood ran cold.
17:59The message was from a number I recognized instantly, yet it was addressed to Dominic with professional deference from the
18:05first time I met Dominic.
18:07Back then, I was still green at that to develop a habit of sleeping with my targets.
18:11I sauntered into a bar, my black clothes concealing the blood on me perfectly.
18:16I drank myself half to death, feeling brooding and pessimistic.
18:20I couldn't help but think that my life was over.
18:23Being an assassin wasn't glamorous, and I kept getting injured.
18:26People kept trying to hit on me.
18:28I lounged lazily with a faint smile on my face, looking like a fragile little thing.
18:34No one knew I did the dirtiest, deadliest work in the world.
18:37I was annoyed, but I didn't let it show.
18:40Instead, I deliberately put on a show of pouring something into my drink, while smiling mischievously, saying,
18:46There's poison in here.
18:48You'll die if you drink it.
18:50They wanted to sleep with me, but they didn't even have the nerve to touch the glass because of my
18:54words, whether true or false.
18:56I wasn't bored because all the while I sensed someone lurking in the shadows.
19:00Their eyes locked on me.
19:02Their gaze was blunt and searing, and I could hardly miss it.
19:05I barely had to wait before he showed himself in front of me.
19:08He picked up the glass and downed the liquor.
19:10The rim hit the counter with a clatter.
19:13The polished surface caught clean, sharp features.
19:16He looked down and said softly,
19:17Your wounds will faster if you don't get them treated soon.
19:21I saw the desire roiling beneath the layer of ice in his eyes.
19:24He and I were of the same kind, so of course we slept together.
19:28The peak that left me shaking and crying.
19:30By the next morning, I was gone.
19:32My wounds had been treated, and I was clean.
19:35I'd never felt so good before.
19:37It was a shame, but I didn't want to have anything to do with regular people.
19:41So I left a note and a bank card.
19:44The note was a farewell, and the bank card was his remuneration.
19:47It was a polite and detached move.
19:50I thought our paths would never cross again.
19:52Until a few months down the road, when my boss issued me a new mission to assassinate a mafia boss,
19:58with an astronomical bounty on him.
20:00The face that had stared back at me was Dominic's.
20:04When I woke up, I felt like my body was falling apart.
20:07I knew Dominic was no simpleton, but I didn't expect him to be this crazy.
20:11I lifted the blanket and got out of bed.
20:13My legs gave out the moment I stood up, and I fell to the floor.
20:17My body was marked everywhere, and I tugged on it and snorted.
20:21Is this a captivity kink?
20:24Dominic's voice boomed from out of nowhere.
20:27You're up.
20:28Breakfast is on the table.
20:29Do you feel okay?
20:31I turned to see a surveillance camera aiming right at me.
20:34He hadn't even tried to hide it.
20:36I grabbed the blanket and pulled it over my body while...
20:39Explain this.
20:40Dominic's voice sounded unbelievably calm as it came from the surveillance camera.
20:45It looks good.
20:47I was baffled.
20:48Then I narrowed my eyes, and my expression turned icy.
20:51Dominic's tone shifted as he added.
20:53His voice sounded a little glum.
20:55It's the oldest story in the book.
20:57The evil dragon falls in love with the princess.
21:00Making sure that she can never leave.
21:02I said coolly.
21:04The princess ultimately gets saved by the prince, though.
21:07He chuckled.
21:07I snorted and said sarcastically.
21:10I don't like you, Dominic.
21:13What's the point of you doing this?
21:16He was unfazed.
21:18Is that so?
21:20You felt so good that you cried last night, though.
21:24Or was I mistaken?
21:26Once again, I was rendered speechless.
21:28Dominic was tall and handsome.
21:30Could anyone keep themselves from getting turned on by such a striking face and body?
21:34For once, I didn't clap back.
21:36Initially, I clung to a shred of hope that this was just one of Dominic's whims.
21:41He would let me go once he was tired of me in the game.
21:45Three days later, all my things were packed neatly and dropped off at the villa.
21:50A week later, everything in the house started coming in pairs.
21:53A month later, Dominic opened my door while holding a pillow.
21:58You've had a month to process this.
22:00Have you accepted reality yet?
22:02I had nothing to say.
22:04I had indeed accepted reality, thank you very much.
22:07I backed away when I saw his eyes darken with lust.
22:11Hold on.
22:12I think I might need more time to process this.
22:15Dominic pressed his body to mine.
22:17Talk to him.
22:19Not me.
22:20I couldn't accept that I was starting to love his body.
22:23To love every single one of his kisses.
22:26So, I started a daily routine of attempting to assassinate Dominic.
22:30The first time, I hid a dagger behind me,
22:33wanting to kill him in one strike when his guard was down.
22:36I ended up being pinned to the table.
22:38The second time, I reflected on my mistakes and opted for the poison route.
22:42I used the poison that I kept for extreme situations.
22:45A tiny drop would instantly make one froth at the mouth.
22:49I made sure to lace the wine with it beforehand,
22:52and I smiled gently as I watched him pick up his glass and hold it to his lips.
22:57When he paused, my heart shot to my throat.
23:00What's wrong?
23:01He laughed.
23:03You know there are surveillance cameras in the room, right?
23:06I was silent for a moment.
23:07Then, I slowly looked up with a smile that didn't meet my eyes.
23:11Isn't that for show?
23:12Dominic put down the glass, drawling.
23:15There are real simple places you can't see.
23:17I clenched my fists and downed my drink, which I hadn't poisoned.
23:22After a moment, I tugged at my collar.
23:25Why is it getting so warm?
23:27His eyes darkened, and he said huskily,
23:29I put something in your drink, too.
23:32I tried to fight back my body's reaction, but I panted as I snarled.
23:36I'm going to kill you, Dominic.
23:38He tapped the corner of his lips, unruffled.
23:41Kiss me, and I'll give you the antidote.
23:43Damn him.
23:44I would remember this.
23:46Dominic had imprisoned me, restricted my rights, broken his promises, and gone back on his woe.
23:52His vile deeds were too numerous to list.
23:55I swore I would take him down.
23:57I had to kill him.
23:58After trying and failing multiple times, I switched tactics.
24:03I lay in wait at night for a surprise ambush.
24:07Dominic came home drunk, which was rare.
24:10His guard was down.
24:11I've seen plenty in my life, but no one had ever toyed with me like this.
24:15For a moment, I was both angry and embarrassed.
24:17It was all Dominic's fault for being so sick in the hand.
24:20He'd infected me with his insanity.
24:23He coughed softly, his Adam's apple quivering as if he were laughing.
24:26I tightened my grip further and threatened him in a low voice.
24:30You don't know what it's like to suffocate, do you?
24:34You'd better savor it before you die.
24:38Dominic's expression finally shifted and his voice grew strained.
24:42He was on the brink of go of me.
24:44I ducked aside and looked down at my hands without saying a word.
24:47He was so sick.
24:49Where had things gone wrong?
24:50He looked at me, making me jolt.
24:52I couldn't stop myself from taking a step back.
24:55Why are you hiding?
24:57He smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes.
25:00Anyone else would already be six feet under for trying to kill me so many times.
25:05Have I ever done anything to you?
25:07Come here.
25:11Stop fighting!
25:13Enough!
25:26We need peace, and let half-beasts govern the world unbreakable.
25:36In my previous life, I chose to marry Jax, the eldest son of the werewolf pack, who was
25:42known for his extreme loyalty.
25:44We gave birth to a hybrid cub with white fur and named him Zeal.
25:48Our child became the next ruler of the world, and Jax gained immense power as a result.
25:54My sister, obsessed with the beauty of the elves, married into their clan.
25:59But the elven prince slept with every female in the forest.
26:07In the end, she contracted a strange disease and became barren ever since.
26:12Consumed by jealousy and resentment, she said a...
26:16Help me!
26:21When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day of the interracial marriage alliances.
26:27I knew she had been reborn too.
26:31This was when I was young.
26:33There, on the massive fur-covered bed, my sister Clara and Jax were tangled together, naked.
26:39Clara gasped, her nails raking down his muscled back.
26:44Clara, what the hell are you doing?
26:49Sister, Jax and I are truly in love.
26:52Please, let us be together.
26:59And we've already fucked!
27:00If I don't marry Jax now, no other prince will want me as his wife!
27:08Rowena, maybe you can pick another mate.
27:11Clara just got carried away and made a mistake.
27:14Father was there too, speaking up for her.
27:17He always favored Clara because I was his bastard daughter from a fling outside,
27:21while Clara was born to his legitimate wife.
27:24I looked down at Clara, kneeling on the floor now.
27:28Her face was streaked with tears, looking all innocent, but her eyes burned with ambition and thrill.
27:35I knew she was reborn to my past life.
27:38I'd chosen Jax, the eldest son of the werewolf alpha.
27:42To me, vampires were cold and heartless.
27:45Elves were fickle players.
27:47Only werewolves were loyal and passionate.
27:49The perfect choice.
27:51Six months after mating with Jax, I bore him a white wolf pup, naming him Zeal.
27:57As the first hybrid born, Zeal became the rightful next ruler of the world.
28:03I always thought I would live happily with my child like this forever.
28:09Until that, but Clara, craving the elves' allure, picked the elf prince Eldrin.
28:14She didn't know he'd rut with every willing female in the woods.
28:18It left Clara with a nasty infection, barren for life and shunned by the elf clan.
28:24She blamed me for her misery, jealous that my life was better.
28:29She slipped me a sedative and set our den ablaze.
28:32Thinking of it now, rage boiled in my veins.
28:35I wanted to rip Clara's throat out right there, avenging Zeal.
28:39My fists clenched in my sleeves, nails biting into my palms, snapping me back to reality.
28:46I nodded, putting on a knowing smile.
28:50Since you and Jax are so in love, I won't stand in your way.
28:54Clara hadn't expected me to agree so easily.
28:57The tears she'd forced out hung awkwardly on her lashes.
29:02Clara, get up.
29:05Thank your sister for her blessing.
29:09Thank you, sister.
29:20Girls really do grow up and slip away too quickly.
29:24Father joked, but when he turned and saw my cold face, he looked guilty.
29:29Rowene, the only unmated heirs left from the ruling clans are the vampire lord, Thorn, and the elf prince Eldrin.
29:39I think the elves aren't a bad pick.
29:42Their looks and status are way above the vampire's.
29:46And Clara mentioned before.
29:49I cut father off.
29:51Father.
29:52I'll mate with the vampire clan's thorn.
29:57Humans always saw vampires as cold-blooded monsters, full of prejudice.
30:03For thousands of years, no human had chosen a vampire alliance, so the vampires never produced a world ruler.
30:11It got them sidelined by the other races, treated as outcasts with no resources.
30:19I'm calling out my name at the top of his lungs.
30:24Rowena!
30:33He tried to save me, but the flames were too fierce and he could do nothing.
30:39Father wasn't happy with my choice, but seeing how determined I was, he didn't push it anymore.
30:45He just sighed and tried to comfort me.
30:48If things get tough in the vampire clan, Clara can help you out.
30:56But when Clara heard I'd chosen to mate with the vampire clan, she couldn't hold back and mocked me right
31:02to my face.
31:03Sister, even if you can't have jacks, you don't have to pick the run-down vampire clan.
31:10Don't end up starving before you even pop out a kid.
31:13I hear the vampires are going bankrupt.
31:17The werewolf pack is loaded.
31:19Even their bath water is infused with precious moonlight.
31:23If your days get too rough, sister, I can pack up some leftovers for you.
31:28She said it all without caring about the servant's weird looks, covering her mouth and laughing hysterically.
31:36In Clara's mind, the werewolf pack had endless resources, and Jax was, but she didn't know that humans and werewolves
31:44didn't breed easily, and Jax was obsessed with heirs.
31:52After six months with no pregnant his rage on me eating a pup, it wasn't until I used a secret
31:58ritual to get pregnant and birthed zeal, securing power for the werewolves, that Jax finally eased up.
32:04I smiled faintly.
32:06For me, my previous marriage with Jax was not a happy one.
32:10I offered Clara a calm smile.
32:13He's just some trouble I don't want.
32:15Go ahead and take it.
32:23Rowena, what's there to be proud of picking a broke-ass vampire?
32:37I'll be the first to get pregnant.
32:40My child will be the next Alliance ruler.
32:44I ignored her tantrum and went to prepare for the wedding in three days.
32:58Claire was right about one thing.
33:00The vampire clan was dirt poor.
33:03I worried they couldn't even afford a proper gown, so I planned to get one ready myself.
33:08But to my surprise, that night Thorn came personally to deliver the wedding dress.
33:23This was the first time I really took in Thorn's appearance.
33:36This was the one who had tried to save me in my previous life at the very last moment of
33:41my life.
33:42Opening the box, there was a blood-red trailing gown.
33:45The chest adorned with glowing dark crimson gems.
33:49I'd never seen such a stunning dress.
33:51I was mesmerized.
33:54Miss Rowena, this is hand-stitched by our vampire clan's finest tailors.
33:58The blood gems are blessings from our people.
34:01This is the first vampire human unity.
34:04If anything's not to your liking, tell me.
34:07Thorn looked at me with deliberate distance as if he wasn't the one about to mate with me.
34:12Thank you. I love it.
34:17Just as I was about to put the dress away, Clara sauntered in, arm linked with Jax's looking smug as
34:24hell.
34:25Sister, you can't seriously have just this one dress?
34:28Jax prepared a whole ten wedding gowns for me, each one sexier than the laced.
34:34Clara only knew werewolves were deeply loyal, but she didn't get that it was pure instinct, making them fixated on
34:42breeding.
34:43If she didn't give him a pup soon, would Jax still pamper her?
34:47Thorn's grip on his scepter tightened for a moment.
34:52He looked at me seriously.
34:57It's my vampire clan that scrowed you, Miss Rowena.
35:01I promise you, Thorn will never bepay you in this life.
35:10Pretty words are easy.
35:12Let's see if you can even knock her up.
35:17Clara couldn't stop yapping about babies now.
35:20Her baron passed the-
35:21Sister, focus on your own mating.
35:23Someone might think you're eyeing my fiancé again.
35:27I smiled faintly at Clara, and in the midst of her and Jax's ugly expressions, I took Thorn's hand and
35:34left.
35:40Soon, from behind, I heard Clara flirting with Jax, her voice-
35:44My stupid sister, reborn and still obsessed with rising through motherhood.
35:54Seeing the child, there'd be a little ruler.
35:59Here's a spell.
36:00Episode 3, Ф
36:00Could you be my favorite?
36:00might happen 2 more than 2 more than 3 years ago.
36:23I'm hoping this is casi sm四-
36:23.
36:53.
37:23.
37:53.
38:24.
38:25It was Jasmine's maid.
38:27Did you call a doctor?
38:29What do you mean she's suddenly not feeling well?
38:31The moment Drake heard that Jasmine wasn't feeling well,
38:34he didn't even hesitate to shove me aside as he rushed to get dressed.
38:37She was fine when we were in bed just now.
38:40Then, as if realizing what he just said, he paused and looked at me with guilt.
38:44I'll be back soon.
38:45Owen is dead.
38:47I'm all she has now.
38:48Just wait for me, okay?
38:50He never needed my permission or approval to go see Jasmine.
38:53Unlike when he was with me.
38:54He just expected me to wait for him indefinitely.
38:57But I couldn't wait anymore.
38:59I wouldn't.
39:00I smiled at him, and that was all it took to put his mind at ease
39:03as he walked out the door leaving me and our son Caden behind again.
39:06He didn't know that I'd received news that he was planning a marking ceremony with Jasmine.
39:11I closed my eyes and called upon the wolf I'd kept hidden for so long.
39:15Maybe this was for the best.
39:16His betrayal would make it easier for me to leave with Caden.
39:19I got in touch with my family easily.
39:22They were overjoyed, especially my father.
39:25The moment he found out he was a grandfather, he was so emotional he nearly cried.
39:29He wanted Caden and me to return to Windmere immediately.
39:32Just then, my sleeping son mumbled softly in his sleep.
39:36Daddy, you promised me.
39:38It would be his fifth birthday in two days.
39:40Even in his dreams, he was holding on to Drake's promise to celebrate his birthday together.
39:45I gently stroked his sleeping face as tears welled up in my eyes.
39:48Just two more days.
39:50I wanted Caden to leave without any regrets.
39:53But before dawn, a sharp knock on the door shattered his sweet dream.
39:57It was Drake's mother, Patricia Sinclair, sending someone to bring Caden and me back to her place.
40:02I frowned, knowing that Patricia had always looked down on us.
40:05To her, I was just some nameless rogue from an outsider tribe who got lucky when I met her precious
40:10son Drake.
40:11And she didn't like Caden either.
40:13After all, she thought that someone like Jasmine, who had pure blood and came from the same pack, was the
40:18only woman worthy of being Luna.
40:20Unlike me, Caden was excited.
40:22He thought Drake was finally coming to take him home.
40:25But when we arrived at Patricia's house, we were greeted by Drake's relatives, all looking at us with disdain.
40:31Drake, who hadn't come home all night, was standing beside Jasmine with a gentle expression as he supported her.
40:36Patricia completely ignored Caden and me, smiling as she made an announcement.
40:41Jasmine is pregnant.
40:42As per our agreement, Drake will be the next alpha of the blaze tooth pack.
40:46Their child will be the rightful heir.
40:49And soon, Drake and Jasmine will hold their marking ceremony.
40:52The room erupted in excitement as everyone turned to Jasmine.
40:55I, however, stared straight at Drake.
40:57He placed a tender hand on Jasmine's stomach, acting like he couldn't see me or Caden standing just a few
41:02feet away.
41:03Yeah, I'm finally going to be a father.
41:06Finally, a sharp pain shot through my heart.
41:09Beside me, Caden had his little hand tightened around mine as he asked in a trembling voice,
41:14Mommy, what is Daddy saying?
41:16Am I not his child?
41:17His soft voice made the entire room go silent.
41:20Then, Drake's relatives sneered.
41:23He's just an illegitimate child, but he actually dared to speak up here.
41:26If people find out the alpha of blaze tooth pack has an illegitimate child, do you know what that'll do
41:31to our reputation?
41:32A lowborn woman and her brat trying to claim the pierre's position?
41:36You can only do it over my dead body.
41:38There's no way we can let anyone know that kid is Drake's.
41:41Patricia scoffed and looked at us with pure disdain.
41:44From now on, we'll say the child is an orphan we took in.
41:47As for Selena, she's just a maid Drake hired to take care of him.
41:51I gripped Caden's hand tighter.
41:53I had always known Patricia hated us.
41:55She was the one who first suggested that Jasmine should carry Drake's child.
41:59I'm not an orphan.
42:01I have a mommy and a daddy.
42:03Caden's eyes turned red as he held back his tears, protesting in a small voice.
42:07Mom, isn't this going too far?
42:09Drake let go of Jasmine's hand and took a step toward us.
42:12But before he could come any closer, I saw Jasmine reach out and pull him back.
42:16He hesitated for a few seconds.
42:18Then, he fell silent.
42:21Fine.
42:21I agree with your plan.
42:23I stepped forward with Caden and faced Drake and Patricia head on.
42:27My child is not an orphan.
42:29He doesn't need to be adopted.
42:31From this day forward, Caden is mine alone.
42:34He has nothing to do with Drake.
42:36I kneeled and fought back tears as I whispered to Caden,
42:39Baby, don't call him daddy anymore, okay?
42:41Drake froze.
42:42He knew it was all because of Caden that I had agreed to return to Blaze Toothpack
42:46and accepted his relationship with Jasmine.
42:48He promised to give Caden a rightful identity.
42:51And now, I was giving that up myself.
42:54He stared into my eyes, trying to read my emotions.
42:57But I looked away.
42:58He would never have my heart again.
43:00Caden was too young to understand everything that was happening.
43:04He cried so hard that his eyes were swollen.
43:06I just wanted to take him home and comfort him.
43:18I just wanted to take him home.
43:21I died once again.
43:23IPoint was too young.
43:24I wanted to take him home.
43:24I was just like, oh yeah.
43:25I was worried about that.
43:25I was like, oh yeah.
43:40And I was like, oh yeah.
43:41And I'm like, oh yeah.
44:16He cried silently in my arms and asked me if Drake didn't want him anymore, and if I was the
44:23only person in the world who loved him. I held him tightly. That's not true. Many people love my little
44:29hero. Grandpa Alex and Grandma Bella miss us very much. They can't wait to see you. Do you want to
44:35leave with me and go find them? He hesitated, clutching the toy car Drake had given him last year for
44:41his birthday.
44:42But, I don't want to leave Daddy.
44:45I held back my tears and gently reassured him, Daddy and Grandma Patricia don't want us to stay here. Do
44:50you want to call him Uncle Drake for the rest of your life?
44:53He froze for a moment, then slowly put down the toy car. Tears welled up in his eyes as he
44:58pleaded with me.
44:58Can I at least spend this birthday with Daddy before we leave? I just want one last memory with him.
45:05He refused to call him Uncle Drake. I silently wiped away my tears and kissed the top of his head.
45:11Of course, my love.
45:13But two days later, on his birthday, Drake, who had promised to throw him a party, never showed up. I
45:19called him and asked angrily,
45:20It's Caden's birthday today. You promised you'd be home. Where are you?
45:25I could handle disappointment but couldn't bear to see Caden's last bit of hope shatter. Drake didn't say a single
45:31word before hanging up.
45:32Daddy's not coming, is he?
45:35Caden lowered his head, staring at the cake before him while trying to convince himself.
45:39It's okay, Mommy. Uncle Drake is just really busy. You can celebrate with me instead.
45:45It was the first time he'd ever called Drake Uncle. He seemed to accept that Drake didn't want him anymore,
45:50but the way he bit his lip and forced a smile shattered my heart into pieces. Furious, I was about
45:56to call him again
45:56when I suddenly received a message from him. Come back to Blaze Toothpack. Baby, look. Daddy remembered your birthday.
46:04Caden's eyes lit up with hope as he gasped in excitement.
46:08Mommy, Daddy remembered my birthday. Let's go. He must have so many presents for me.
46:14After receiving confirmation from Drake that he had indeed prepared a birthday party, Caden was beyond ecstatic.
46:19He grabbed my hand and practically dragged me to the villa in the pack. But as soon as I stepped
46:24inside,
46:24my heart sank at the sight before me. The room was filled with roses. Guests in formal attire mingled around.
46:31This didn't feel like a birthday party at all. It felt more like. Caden, however, didn't notice.
46:37He ran straight toward Drake, who was standing in front of a cake, and threw himself into his arms.
46:42Daddy! I'm here! Are you waiting for me to cut the cake?
46:47Drake looked utterly shocked to see us.
46:49Why are you here?
46:50He was dressed in his formal suit and standing next to Jasmine. His reaction confirmed my worst fear.
46:56The guests began whispering amongst themselves.
46:59Isn't today supposed to be Alpha Drake's announcement of his luna?
47:02Why is there suddenly a kid here? That child called him Daddy. Could he be an illegitimate son?
47:08Hearing their words, Drake suddenly pushed Caden away.
47:11What did you just call me?
47:13Caden stumbled backward, falling to the floor. He looked up at Drake, terrified, unsure of what he had
47:18done wrong. This was too much. I rushed forward to pick him up, ready to leave, but Jasmine stepped in
47:24front of me. Selina, today is the official announcement of Drake's and my titles. You
47:29crashed the event on purpose, didn't you? The smug smirk on her face told me everything I
47:35needed to know. She was the one who had sent that text. She clung to Drake's arm and said
47:40in a voice dripping with mocker.
