00:00:23mate leading them, I cursed him with my dying breath, moon goddess give me one more life, I'll make him

00:00:29pay,

00:00:30then I jolted awake, my heart was pounding in my ears, same room, same faces, I was back, the day

00:00:57I reject lyra moon crest as my fated mate, the room went dead silent, rejecting the mate the moon chose

00:01:04for you is taboo, then the bond ripped out of me, the pain hit my chest and dropped me, I

00:01:10looked up at draven, his face moved nothing, he just turned back to selena, draven, you don't know what you're

00:01:15doing, I know exactly what I'm doing,

00:01:17I choose selene, selene rested a hand on her belly and smiled, she carries my pup, a pure one, they

00:01:22all believed her, selena shifts clean, her fur comes in pure white, I never shift right, so they call her

00:01:28the moon's chosen, they call me the stain the moon got wrong, they had it backwards, draven crosses the room,

00:01:36he leans in close,

00:01:36you shamed me last life, never again, I gave him my sweetest smile and said nothing, he wanted the purest

00:01:44air alive, he never knew selena carried a mutt too, let him find out himself,

00:01:50a rejected mate loses everything, no protection, no rank, the pack does as it pleases with her, that was the

00:01:58law draven just dropped me into, last life, I begged him not to do this, I crawled at his feet,

00:02:03not this time, I stood up, my voice came out steady, then I'll claim my own mate, that's my right

00:02:11under the moon law, the whole hall turned to me, gasps broke out across the room,

00:02:15what? you cut the bond drain, so I choose again, the pack elder leaned forward, you know the cost, no

00:02:24pack will protect you, no alpha takes you back, whoever you claim, you're bound to him for life, no undoing

00:02:30it, I know exactly what it costs, I choose him, I pointed to the far corner of the hall, a

00:02:36man leans against a pillar, no one had noticed him before, then he straightened and the whole pack caught his

00:02:41scent, whispers ran through the room,

00:02:43a lone wolf, no pack, no bloodline, you smell that, he's a mutt, she's choosing a mutt, the hall turned

00:02:50on him, lips curling, you'd really take a stray over a coal, he has more honor than every coal in

00:02:55this room, the hall goes silent, draven's face darkens, so what if I pick a stray, at least this time

00:03:01I walk away free, I held out my hand to the stranger, what are you waiting for, come here, he

00:03:05pushes off the pillar and crosses to me,

00:03:08he didn't drop his head the way a mutt should, he took my hand, the moment our hands meet I

00:03:14freeze, where draven's bond broke something went warm, soul to soul I knew this stranger, took you long enough to

00:03:22find me, who are you, yours, the moon picked me not him,

00:03:33a new bond only counts if the pack witnesses it, and only under an open moon, so they drove us

00:03:38all out of the hall, into the trees, moonlight floods a clearing, the whole pack circles us, selena watched from

00:03:45the edge, smirking, go on, let the stray sink his teeth in, watch your own litter first, sister, her smirk

00:03:53cracked, she didn't know what I knew, the pack elder steps into the ring,

00:03:56once he marks you, the moon binds you, last chance to stop, mark me kale, the pack watches, amused, kale

00:04:04leaned in, his teeth grazed the curve of my neck, then draven shoved through the circle and ripped me back,

00:04:11stop, you're still mine to deal with, yours, you threw me out an hour ago, last life you, last life

00:04:20you fed me and your pup to the pack,

00:04:21I felt every tooth, the whole pack freezes, draven goes pale, last life, draven, what does she mean, he had

00:04:35no answer, his grip shook on my arm, then kale's hand closed over draven's wrist, she told you to let

00:04:42go, black claws break through kale's knuckles, his eyes burn gold,

00:04:49the pack elder stumbles back a step, that power, it's not possible,

00:04:56ragnar blackhorn pushed to the front, draven's father, the oldest pure blood alive, he'd fed on stolen wolves to keep

00:05:03breathing this long, he looked at kale's claws, his face went grey,

00:05:07stop this claiming, now, on what law, he rejected me, I chose another, ragnar had no answer that wouldn't expose

00:05:14him,

00:05:15or does the great ragnar black hell fear one mutt, the whole circle heard it, he couldn't back down now,

00:05:20father, don't let it quiet, I pulled my collar aside, and bared the back of my neck,

00:05:26finish what you started, kale, in front of all of them,

00:05:31kale's teeth sink into the back of my neck, white light erupts from the bite,

00:05:35a white crescent appears, the older wolves dropped low,

00:05:38shaking, they knew that mark, a claiming mark, always heels over red, mine blazed moon white, bright enough to hurt,

00:05:47ragnar stared at the mark, and went stitted,

00:05:49that mark, it can't be,

00:05:52what happened, why is everyone bowing,

00:05:55no one answered her,

00:16:05you'd really take a stray over a coal,

00:16:07he has more honor than every coal in this room,

00:16:09the hall goes silent,

00:16:11Draven's face darkens,

00:16:12so what if I pick a stray,

00:16:13at least this time I walk away free,

00:16:15I held out my hand to the stranger,

00:16:17what are you waiting for,

00:16:18come here,

00:16:18he pushes off the pillar and crosses to me,

00:16:21he didn't drop his head the way a mutt should,

00:16:24he took my hand,

00:16:26the moment our hands meet I freeze,

00:16:28where Draven's bond broke something went warm,

00:16:32soul to soul,

00:16:33I knew this stranger,

00:16:34took you long enough to find me,

00:16:37who are you,

00:16:40yours,

00:16:42the moon picked me,

00:16:44not him,

00:16:46a new bond only counts,

00:16:48if the pack witnesses it,

00:16:49and only under an open moon,

00:16:51so they drove us all out of the hall,

00:16:53into the trees,

00:16:54moonlight floods a clearing,

00:16:55the whole pack circles us,

00:16:57selena watched from the edge,

00:16:59smirking,

00:16:59go on,

00:17:01let the stray sink his teeth in,

00:17:03watch your own litter first,

00:17:05sister,

00:17:05her smirk cracked,

00:17:06she didn't know what I knew,

00:17:08the pack elder steps into the ring,

00:17:09once he marks you,

00:17:11the moon binds you,

00:17:12last chance to stop it,

00:17:14mark me Kale,

00:17:15the pack watches,

00:17:16amused,

00:17:17Kale leaned in,

00:17:18his teeth grazed the curve of my neck,

00:17:21then Draen shoved through the circle,

00:17:23and ripped me back,

00:17:24stop,

00:17:25you're still mine to deal with,

00:17:27yours,

00:17:28you threw me out an hour ago,

00:17:32last life you,

00:17:33last life you fed me and your pup to the pack,

00:17:35I felt every tooth,

00:17:39the whole pack freezes,

00:17:41Draen goes pale,

00:17:45last life,

00:17:46Draen,

00:17:47what does she mean,

00:17:48he had no answer,

00:17:50his grip shook on my arm,

00:17:51then Kale's hand closed over Draen's wrist,

00:17:55she told you to let go,

00:17:57black claws break through Kale's knuckles,

00:17:59his eyes burn gold,

00:18:02the pack elder stumbles back a step,

00:18:05that power,

00:18:06it's not possible,

00:18:09Ragnar Blackhorn pushed to the front,

00:18:11Draen's father,

00:18:12the oldest pure blood alive,

00:18:14he'd fed on stolen wolves to keep breathing this long,

00:18:17he looked at Kale's claws,

00:18:18his face went grey,

00:18:20stop this claiming,

00:18:21now,

00:18:22on what law,

00:18:23he rejected me,

00:18:24I chose another,

00:18:26Ragnar had no answer,

00:18:27that wouldn't expose him,

00:18:28or does the great Ragnar Blackhell,

00:18:30fear one mutt,

00:18:31the whole circle heard it,

00:18:32he couldn't back down now,

00:18:34father don't let it quiet,

00:18:35I pulled my collar aside,

00:18:37and bared the back of my neck,

00:18:39finish what you started Kale,

00:18:41in front of all of them,

00:18:44Kale's teeth sink into the back of my neck,

00:18:46white light erupts from the bite,

00:18:48a white crescent appears,

00:18:50the older wolves dropped low,

00:18:52shaking,

00:18:53they knew that mark,

00:18:54a claiming mark always heals over red,

00:18:57mine blazed moon white,

00:18:59bright enough to hurt,

00:19:00Ragnar stared at the mark,

00:19:01and went stitted,

00:19:02that mark,

00:19:03it can't be,

00:19:05what happened,

00:19:06why is everyone bowing,

00:19:08no one answered her,

00:19:10the young ones never knew,

00:19:12Davin looks at my neck,

00:19:13then at his father,

00:19:15father,

00:19:16what is that mark,

00:19:17Ragnar didn't speak,

00:19:18his hands were shaking,

00:19:20he stared at me,

00:19:21the way you stare at the dead,

00:19:22come back,

00:19:23I touched the white crescent on my neck,

00:19:25I knew exactly what it meant,

00:19:27my mother told me once,

00:19:29they buried the white wolf,

00:19:30lifetimes ago,

00:19:31tonight she marked me as her own,

00:19:33you killed the white wolf once,

00:19:36did you think she'd stay down,

00:19:54the day I gave birth,

00:19:57my mate called our pet the mutt,

00:20:00he threw us both to the pack,

00:20:02under the full moon,

00:20:04I held my pup to my chest,

00:20:05they ripped her out of my arms,

00:20:07I watched the pack tear her apart,

00:20:09I heard her cry stop,

00:20:10then they came for me,

00:20:11teeth in my throat,

00:20:13my own mate leading them,

00:20:14I cursed him with my dying breath,

00:20:16moon goddess,

00:20:17give me one more life,

00:20:18I'll make him pay,

00:20:19then I jolted awake,

00:20:21my heart was pounding in my ears,

00:20:22same room,

00:20:23same faces,

00:20:24I was back,

00:20:25the day at Darren,

00:20:26rejected me,

00:20:27moon gave me one more life,

00:20:29for one reason,

00:20:30to bury him,

00:20:30Draven stands across the room,

00:20:32his eyes found me,

00:20:33the same disgust,

00:20:34he wore the night,

00:20:35he watched me die,

00:20:36he reborn true,

00:20:37elders,

00:20:39witness me,

00:20:46I reject Lyra moon crest,

00:20:48as my fated mate,

00:20:50the room went dead silent,

00:20:52rejecting the mate,

00:20:53the moon chose for you,

00:20:54is taboo,

00:20:55then the bond,

00:20:55ripped out of me,

00:20:57the pain hit my chest,

00:20:58and dropped me,

00:20:59I looked up at Draven,

00:21:00his face moved nothing,

00:21:02he just turned back to Selina,

00:21:04Draven,

00:21:04you don't know what you're doing,

00:21:05I know exactly what I'm doing,

00:21:07I choose Selene,

00:21:08Selene rested a hand on her belly,

00:21:09and smiled,

00:21:10she carries my pup,

00:21:11a pure one,

00:21:12they all believed her,

00:21:13Selene shifts clean,

00:21:15her fur comes in pure white,

00:21:16I never shift right,

00:21:18so they call her the moon's chosen,

00:21:20they call me the stain,

00:21:21the moon got wrong,

00:21:22they had it backwards,

00:21:24Draven crosses the room,

00:21:25he leans in close,

00:21:27you shamed me last life,

00:21:29never again,

00:21:29I gave him my sweetest smile,

00:21:31and said nothing,

00:21:32he wanted the purest air alive,

00:21:34he never knew Selina carried a mutt too,

00:21:37let him find out himself,

00:21:40a rejected mate loses everything,

00:21:43no protection,

00:21:44no rank,

00:21:45the pack does as it pleases with her,

00:21:47that was the law Draven just dropped me into,

00:21:49last life,

00:21:50I begged him not to do this,

00:21:52I crawled at his feet,

00:21:53not this time,

00:21:54I stood up,

00:21:55my voice came out steady,

00:21:57then I'll claim my own mate,

00:22:00that's my right under the moon law,

00:22:02the whole hall turned to me,

00:22:03gasps broke out across the room,

00:22:05what,

00:22:06you cut the bond Draen,

00:22:08so I choose again,

00:22:10the pack elder leaned forward,

00:22:12you know the cost,

00:22:13no pack will protect you,

00:22:15no alpha takes you back,

00:22:17whoever you claim,

00:22:18you're bound to him for life,

00:22:20no undoing it,

00:22:21I know exactly what it costs,

00:22:23I choose him,

00:22:24I pointed to the far corner of the hall,

00:22:25a man leans against a pillar,

00:22:27no one had noticed him before,

00:22:29then he straightened,

00:22:30and the whole pack caught his scent,

00:22:31whispers ran through the room,

00:22:33a lone wolf,

00:22:34no pack,

00:22:35no bloodline,

00:22:36you smell that,

00:22:37he's a mutt,

00:22:38she's choosing a mutt,

00:22:39the hall turned on him,

00:22:41lips curling,

00:22:42you'd really take a stray over a coal,

00:22:43he has more honor than every coal in this room,

00:22:46the hall goes silent,

00:22:47Draven's face darkens,

00:22:49so what if I pick a stray,

00:22:52I held out my hand to the stranger,

00:24:49the oldest pure blood alive,

00:24:51he'd fed on stolen wolves to keep breathing this long,

00:24:54he looked at Kale's claws,

00:29:28I held out my hand to the stranger,

00:29:30what are you waiting for,

00:29:31come here,

00:29:32he pushes off the pillar,

00:29:33and crosses to me,

00:29:34he didn't drop his head,

00:29:35the way a mutt should,

00:29:37he took my hand,

00:29:39the moment our hands meet,

00:29:41I freeze,

00:29:42where Draven's bond,

00:29:43broke something,

00:29:44went warm,

00:29:45soul to soul,

00:29:46I knew this stranger,

00:29:48took you long enough,

00:29:49to find me,

00:29:50who are you,

00:29:53yours,

00:29:56the moon picked me,

00:29:57not him,

00:30:00a new bond only counts,

00:30:01if the pack witnesses it,

00:30:02and only under an open moon,

00:30:04so they drove us all out of the hall,

00:30:06into the trees,

00:30:07moonlight floods a clearing,

00:30:08the whole pack circles us,

00:30:10Selina watched from the edge,

00:30:12smirking,

00:30:12go on,

00:30:14let the stray sink his teeth in,

00:30:16watch your own litter first,

00:30:18sister,

00:30:18her smirk cracked,

00:30:20she didn't know what I knew,

00:30:21the pack elder steps into the ring,

00:30:23once he marks you,

00:30:24the moon binds you,

00:30:25last chance to stop,

00:30:27mark me Kale,

00:30:28the pack watches,

00:30:29amused,

00:30:30Kale leaned in,

00:30:31his teeth grazed the curve of my neck,

00:30:34then Draen shoved through the circle,

00:30:36and ripped me back,

00:30:37stop,

00:30:38you're still mine to deal with,

00:30:40yours,

00:30:41you threw me out an hour ago,

00:30:45last life you,

00:30:46last life you fed me and your pup to the pack,

00:30:48I felt every tooth,

00:30:52the whole pack freezes,

00:30:54Draven goes pale,

00:30:58last life,

00:30:59Draven,

00:31:00what does she mean,

00:31:01he had no answer,

00:31:03his grip shook on my arm,

00:31:05then Kale's hand closed over Draven's wrist,

00:31:08she told you to let go,

00:31:10black claws break through Kale's knuckles,

00:31:12his eyes burn gold,

00:31:15the pack elder stumbles back a step,

00:31:18that power,

00:31:19it's not possible,

00:31:22Ragnar Blackhorn pushed to the front,

00:31:24Draven's father,

00:31:25the oldest pure blood alive,

00:31:27he'd fed on stolen wolves to keep breathing this long,

00:31:30he looked at Kale's claws,

00:31:32his face went grey,

00:31:33stop this claiming,

00:31:34now,

00:31:35on what law,

00:31:36he rejected me,

00:31:37I chose another,

00:31:39Ragnar had no answer that wouldn't expose him,

00:31:41or does the great Ragnar Blackhell fear one mutt,

00:31:44the whole circle heard it,

00:31:46he couldn't back down now,

00:31:47father don't let her quiet,

00:31:48I pulled my collar aside,

00:31:50and bared the back of my neck,

00:31:52finish what you started Kale,

00:31:54in front of all of them,

00:31:57Kale's teeth sink into the back of my neck,

00:32:00white light erupts from the bite,

00:32:01a white crescent appears,

00:32:03the older wolves dropped low,

00:32:05shaking,

00:32:06they knew that mark,

00:32:07a claiming mark always heals over red,

00:32:10mine blazed moon white,

00:32:12bright enough to hurt,

00:32:13Ragnar stared at the mark and went stitted,

00:32:15that mark,

00:32:16it can't be,

00:32:18what happened,

00:32:20why is everyone bowing,

00:32:22no one answered her,

00:32:23the young ones never knew,

00:32:25Davin looks at my neck,

00:32:27then at his father,

00:32:28father,

00:32:29what is that mark,

00:32:30Ragnar didn't speak,

00:32:32his hands were shaking,

00:32:33he stared at me the way you stare at the dead come back,

00:32:36I touched the white crescent on my neck,

00:32:39I knew exactly what it meant,

00:32:40my mother told me once,

00:32:42they buried the white wolf lifetimes ago,

00:32:44tonight she marked me as her own,

00:32:47you killed the white wolf once,

00:32:49did you think she'd stay down,

00:33:07the day I gave birth,

00:33:10my mate called our pup a mutt,

00:33:13he threw us both to the pack under the full moon,

00:33:17I held my pup to my chest,

00:33:19they ripped her out of my arms,

00:33:20I watched the pack tear her apart,

00:33:22I heard her cry stop,

00:33:24then they came for me,

00:33:24teeth in my throat,

00:33:26my own mate leading them,

00:33:28I cursed him with my dying breath,

00:33:29moon goddess give me one more life,

00:33:31I'll make him pay,

00:33:33then I jolted awake,

00:33:34my heart was pounding in my ears,

00:33:36same room,

00:33:37same faces,

00:33:38I was back,

00:33:38the day at Darin rejected me,

00:33:40moon gave me one more life for one reason,

00:33:43to bury him,

00:33:44Draven stands across the room,

00:33:45his eyes found me,

00:33:46the same disgust he wore the night he watched me die,

00:33:49he reborn too,

00:33:51elders,

00:33:52witness me,

00:34:00I reject Lyra Mooncrest as my fated mate,

00:34:03the room went dead silent,

00:34:05rejecting the mate the moon chose for you is taboo,

00:34:08then the bond ripped out of me,

00:34:10the pain hit my chest and dropped me,

00:34:13I looked up at Draven,

00:34:14his face moved nothing,

00:34:15he just turned back to Selina,

00:34:17Draven,

00:34:18you don't know what you're doing,

00:34:19I know exactly what I'm doing,

00:34:20I choose Selina,

00:34:21Selina rested a hand on her belly and smiled,

00:34:23she carries my pup,

00:34:24a pure one,

00:34:25they all believed her,

00:34:26Selina shifts clean,

00:34:28her fur comes in pure white,

00:34:29I never shift right,

00:34:31so they call her the moon's chosen,

00:34:33they call me the stain the moon got wrong,

00:34:35they had it backwards,

00:34:37Draven crosses the room,

00:34:39he leans in close,

00:34:40you shamed me last life,

00:34:42never again,

00:34:43I gave him my sweetest smile and said nothing,

00:34:46he wanted the purest air alive,

00:34:48he never knew Selina carried a mutt too,

00:34:50let him find out himself,

00:34:53a rejected mate loses everything,

00:34:56no protection,

00:34:57no rank,

00:34:58the pack does as it pleases with her,

00:35:00that was the law Draven just dropped me into,

00:35:02last life,

00:35:03I begged him not to do this,

00:35:05I crawled at his feet,

00:35:06not this time,

00:35:07I stood up,

00:35:08my voice came out steady,

00:35:10then I'll claim my own mate,

00:35:13that's my right under the moon law,

00:35:15the whole hall turned to me,

00:35:16gasps broke out across the room,

00:35:18what?

00:35:19you cut the bond Draven,

00:35:22so I choose again,

00:35:23the pack elder leaned forward,

00:35:25you know the cost,

00:35:26no pack will protect you,

00:35:28no alpha takes you back,

00:35:30whoever you claim,

00:35:31you're bound to him for life,

00:35:33no undoing it,

00:35:34I know exactly what it costs,

00:35:36I choose him,

00:35:37I pointed to the far corner of the hall,

00:35:39a man leans against a pillar,

00:35:40no one had noticed him before,

00:35:42then he straightened,

00:35:43and the whole pack caught his scent,

00:35:44whispers ran through the room,

00:35:46a lone wolf,

00:35:47no pack,

00:35:48no bloodline,

00:35:49you smell that,

00:35:50he's a mutt,

00:35:51she's choosing a mutt,

00:35:53the hall turned on him,

00:35:54lips curling,

00:35:55he'd really take a stray over a coal,

00:35:57he has more honor,

00:35:58than every coal in this room,

00:35:59the hall goes silent,

00:36:00Draven's face darkens,

00:36:02so what if I pick a stray,

00:36:03at least this time,

00:36:04I walk away free,

00:36:05I held out my hand to the stranger,

00:36:07what are you waiting for,

00:36:08come here,

00:36:08he pushes off the pillar,

00:36:09and crosses to me,

00:36:11he didn't drop his head,

00:36:12the way a mutt should,

00:36:14he took my hand,

00:36:16the moment our hands meet,

00:36:17I freeze,

00:36:18where Draven's bond,

00:36:19broke something,

00:36:20went warm,

00:37:42then kale's hand,

00:37:43closed over Draen's wrist,

00:37:44she told you to let go,

00:40:18for one reason,

00:40:19to bury him,

00:40:20Draven stands across the room,

00:40:22his eyes found me,

00:40:23the same disgust,

00:40:43the moon chose for you,

00:40:44is taboo,

00:40:44then the bond,

00:40:45ripped out of me,

00:40:47the pain hit my chest,

00:40:48and dropped me,

00:40:49I looked up at Draven,

00:40:50his face moved nothing,

00:40:52he just turned back,

00:40:53to Selina,

00:40:54Draven,

00:40:57I choose Selene,

00:40:57Selene rested a hand,

00:40:59on her belly,

00:40:59and smiled,

00:41:00she carries my pup,

00:41:01a pure one,

00:41:02they all believed her,

00:41:03Selina shifts clean,

00:41:06I never shift right,

00:41:07so they call her,

00:41:08the moon's chosen,

00:41:09they call me,

00:41:37that was the law,

00:41:38Draven just dropped me into,

00:41:39last life,

00:41:40I begged him not to do this,

00:41:42I crawled at his feet,

00:41:45my voice came out steady,

00:41:51under the moon law,

00:41:52the whole hall turned to me,

00:41:53gasps broke out,

00:41:54across the room,

00:41:55you cut the bond,

00:41:57Draven,

00:41:58so I choose again,

00:42:13I choose him,

00:42:14I pointed to the far corner of the hall,

00:42:16a man leans against a pillar,

00:42:17no one had noticed him before,

00:42:19then he straightened,

00:42:19and the whole pack caught his scent,

00:42:21whispers ran through the room,

00:42:23a lone wolf,

00:42:24no pack,

00:42:25no bloodline,

00:42:25you smell that,

00:42:27he's a mutt,

00:42:28she's choosing a mutt,

00:42:29the hall turned on him,

00:42:31lips curling,

00:42:31you'd really take a stray over a coal,

00:42:33he has more honor than every coal in this room,

00:42:36the hall goes silent,

00:42:37Draven's face darkens,

00:42:38so what if I pick a stray,

00:42:40at least this time I walk away free,

00:42:42I held out my hand to the stranger,

00:42:43what are you waiting for,

00:42:44come here,

00:42:45he pushes off the pillar and crosses to me,

00:42:47he didn't drop his head the way a mutt should,

00:42:50he took my hand,

00:42:52the moment our hands meet I freeze,

00:42:55where Draven's bond broke something went warm,

00:42:58soul to soul,

00:42:59I knew this stranger,

00:43:00it took you long enough to find me,

00:43:03who are you,

00:43:06yours,

00:43:09the moon picked me,

00:43:10not him,

00:43:13a new bond only counts if the pack witnesses it,

00:43:16and only under an open moon,

00:43:17so they drove us all out of the hall,

00:43:19into the trees,

00:43:20moonlight floods a clearing,

00:43:22the whole pack circles us,

00:43:23Selina watched from the edge,

00:43:25smirking,

00:43:26go on,

00:43:27let the stray sink his teeth in,

00:43:29watch your own litter first sister,

00:43:32her smirk cracked,

00:43:33she didn't know what I knew,

00:43:34the pack elder steps into the ring,

00:43:36once he marks you,

00:43:37the moon binds you,

00:43:39last chance to stop,

00:43:40mark me Kale,

00:43:42the pack watches,

00:43:43amused,

00:43:43Kale leaned in,

00:43:44his teeth grazed the curve of my neck,

00:43:48then Draen shoved through the circle,

00:43:49and ripped me back,

00:43:50stop,

00:43:51you're still mine to deal with,

00:43:54yours,

00:43:54you threw me out an hour ago,

00:43:58last life you,

00:43:59last life you fed me and your pup to the pack,

00:44:01I felt every tooth,

00:44:05the whole pack freezes,

00:44:07Draven goes pale,

00:44:11last life,

00:44:12Draven,

00:44:13what does she mean,

00:44:14he had no answer,

00:44:16his grip shook on my arm,

00:44:18then Kale's hand closed over Draven's wrist,

00:44:21she told you to let go,

00:44:23black claws,

00:44:24break through Kale's knuckles,

00:44:26his eyes burn gold,

00:44:28the pack elder,

00:44:30stumbles back a step,

00:44:31that power,

00:44:32it's not possible,

00:44:35Ragnar Blackhorn,

00:44:36pushed to the front,

00:44:38Draven's father,

00:44:38the oldest pure blood alive,

00:44:41he'd fed on stolen wolves,

00:44:42to keep breathing this long,

00:44:44he looked at Kale's claws,

00:44:45his face went gray,

00:44:46stop this claiming,

00:44:47now,

00:44:48on what law,

00:44:49he rejected me,

00:44:51I chose another,

00:44:52Ragnar had no answer,

00:44:53that wouldn't expose him,

00:44:55or does the great Ragnar Blackhell,

00:44:56fear one mutt,

00:44:57the whole circle heard it,

00:44:59he couldn't back down now,

00:45:00father don't let it quiet,

00:45:02I pulled my collar aside,

00:45:03and bared the back of my neck,

00:45:06finish what you started,

00:45:07Kale,

00:45:08in front of all of them,

00:45:10Kale's teeth sink,

00:45:11into the back of my neck,

00:45:13white light erupts,

00:45:14from the bite,

00:45:15a white crescent appears,

00:45:16the older wolves,

00:45:17dropped low,

00:45:19shaking,

00:45:19they knew that mark,

00:45:21a claiming mark,

00:45:22always heels over red,

00:45:23mine blazed moon white,

00:45:25bright enough to hurt,

00:45:26Ragnar stared at the mark,

00:45:28and went stitted,

00:45:29that mark,

00:45:30it can't be,

00:45:31what happened,

00:45:33why is everyone bowing,

00:45:35no one answered her,

00:45:36the young ones never knew,

00:45:38Davin looks at my neck,

00:45:40then at his father,

00:45:41father,

00:45:42what is that mark,

00:45:43Ragnar didn't speak,

00:45:45his hands were shaking,

00:45:46he stared at me,

00:45:47the way you stare at the dead,

00:45:49come back,

00:45:50I touched the white crescent,

00:45:51on my neck,

00:45:52I knew exactly what it meant,

00:45:54my mother told me once,

00:45:55they buried the white wolf,

00:45:56lifetimes ago,

00:45:58tonight she marked me,

00:45:59as her own,

00:46:00you killed the white wolf once,

00:46:02did you think she'd stay down,

00:46:20the day I gave birth,

00:46:23my mate called our pep a mutt,

00:46:27he threw us both to the pack,

00:46:28under the full moon,

00:46:30I held my pup to my chest,

00:46:32they ripped her out of my arms,

00:46:33I watched the pack tear her apart,

00:46:35I heard her cry stop,

00:46:37then they came for me,

00:46:38teeth in my throat,

00:46:39my own mate leading them,

00:46:41I cursed him with my dying breath,

00:46:43moon goddess give me one more life,

00:46:44I'll make him pay,

00:46:46then I jolted awake,

00:46:47my heart was pounding in my ears,

00:46:49same room,

00:46:50same faces,

00:46:51I was back,

00:46:52the day at Darren rejected me,

00:46:53moon gave me one more life,

00:46:55for one reason,

00:46:56to bury him,

00:46:57Draven stands across the room,

00:46:58his eyes found me,

00:47:00the same disgust he wore the night he watched me die,

00:47:02he reborn too,

00:47:03Elders,

00:47:05witness me,

00:47:13I reject Lyra Mooncrest as my fated mate,

00:47:17the room went dead silent,

00:47:18rejecting the mate the moon chose for you is taboo,

00:47:21then the bond ripped out of me,

00:47:23the pain hit my chest and dropped me,

00:47:26I looked up at Draven,

00:47:27his face moved nothing,

00:47:28he just turned back to Selina,

00:47:30Draven,

00:47:31you don't know what you're doing,

00:47:32I know exactly what I'm doing,

00:47:33I choose Selene,

00:47:34Selene rested a hand on her belly and smiled,

00:47:36she carries my pup,

00:47:38a pure one,

00:47:38they all believed her,

00:47:40Selene shifts clean,

00:47:41her fur comes in pure white,

00:47:43I never shift right,

00:47:44so they call her the moon's chosen,

00:47:46they call me the stain the moon got wrong,

00:47:48they had it backwards,

00:47:50Draven crosses the room,

00:47:52he leans in close,

00:47:53you shamed me last life,

00:47:55never again,

00:47:56I gave him my sweetest smile and said nothing,

00:47:59he wanted the purest air alive,

00:48:01he never knew Selene carried a mutt too,

00:48:03let him find out himself,

00:48:06a rejected mate loses everything,

00:48:09no protection,

00:48:10no rank,

00:48:11the pack does as it pleases with her,

00:48:13that was the law Draven just dropped me into,

00:48:16last life I begged him not to do this,

00:48:18I crawled at his feet,

00:48:19not this time,

00:48:20I stood up,

00:48:21my voice came out steady,

00:48:24then I'll claim my own mate,

00:48:26that's my right under the moon law,

00:48:28the whole hall turned to me,

00:48:30gasps broke out across the room,

00:48:32what?

00:48:32you cut the bond Draven,

00:48:35so I choose again,

00:48:36the pack elder leaned forward,

00:48:38you know the cost,

00:48:39no pack will protect you,

00:48:41no alpha takes you back,

00:48:43whoever you claim,

00:48:44you're bound to him for life,

00:48:46no undoing it,

00:48:47I know exactly what it costs,

00:48:49I choose him,

00:48:50I pointed to the far corner of the hall,

00:48:52a man leans against a pillar,

00:48:54no one had noticed him before,

00:48:55then he straightened,

00:48:56and the whole pack caught his scent,

00:48:58whispers ran through the room,

00:49:08you'd really take a stray over a coal,

00:49:10he has more honor,

00:49:11than every coal in this room,

00:49:12the hall goes silent,

00:49:14Draven's face darkens,

00:49:15so what if I pick a stray,

00:49:22and crosses to me,

00:49:24he didn't drop his head,

00:49:25the way a mutt should,

00:49:27he took my hand,

00:49:29the moment our hands meet,

00:49:30I freeze,

00:49:32where Draven's bond,

00:49:33broke something,

00:55:55I held out my hand to the stranger,

00:55:57what are you waiting for,

00:55:57come here,

00:55:58he pushes off the pillar,

00:55:59and crosses to me,

00:56:01he didn't drop his head,

00:56:02the way a mutt should,

00:56:03he took my hand,

00:56:05the moment our hands meet,

00:56:07I freeze,

00:56:08where Draven's bond,

00:56:09broke something,

00:56:10went warm,

00:56:11soul to soul,

00:56:12I knew this stranger,

00:56:14took you long enough,

00:56:15to find me,

00:56:17who are you,

00:56:19yours,

00:56:22the moon picked me,

00:56:23not him,

00:56:26a new bond,

00:56:27only counts,

00:56:28if the pack witnesses it,

00:56:29and only under an open moon,

00:56:30so they drove us all out of the hall,

00:56:32into the trees,

00:56:33moonlight floods a clearing,

00:56:35the whole pack circles us,

00:56:37Selina watched from the edge,

00:56:38smirking,

00:56:39go on,

00:56:40let the stray sink his teeth in,

00:56:43watch your own litter first,

00:56:44sister,

00:56:45her smirk cracked,

00:56:46she didn't know what I knew,

00:56:47the pack elder steps into the ring,

00:56:49once he marks you,

00:56:50the moon binds you,

00:56:52last chance to stop it,

00:56:54mark me Kale,

00:56:55the pack watches,

00:56:56amused,

00:56:57Kale leaned in,

00:56:57his teeth grazed the curve of my neck,

00:57:00then Draen shoved through the circle,

00:57:02and ripped me back,

00:57:03stop,

00:57:04you're still mine to deal with,

00:57:07yours,

00:57:08you threw me out an hour ago,

00:57:11last life,

00:57:12last life you fed me and your pup to the pack,

00:57:15I felt every tooth,

00:57:18the whole pack freezes,

00:57:20Draen goes pale,

00:57:24last life,

00:57:25Draen,

00:57:26what does she mean,

00:57:27he had no answer,

00:57:29his grip shook on my arm,

00:57:31then Kale's hand closed over Draen's wrist,

00:57:34she told you to let go,

00:57:35black claws break through Kale's knuckles,

00:57:39his eyes burn gold,

00:57:41the pack elder stumbles back a step,

00:57:44that power,

00:57:45it's not possible,

00:57:48Ragnar Blackhorn pushed to the front,

00:57:51Draen's father,

00:57:52the oldest pure blood alive,

00:57:54he'd fed on stolen wolves,

00:57:55to keep breathing this long,

00:57:57he looked at Kale's claws,

00:57:58his face went gray,

00:57:59stop this claiming,

00:58:01now,

00:58:01on what law,

00:58:03he rejected me,

00:58:04I chose another,

00:58:05Ragnar had no answer,

00:58:06that wouldn't expose him,

00:58:08or does the great Ragnar Blackhell,

00:58:09fear one mutt,

00:58:10the whole circle heard it,

00:58:12he couldn't back down now,

00:58:13father don't let it quiet,

00:58:15I pulled my collar aside,

00:58:16and bared the back of my neck,

00:58:19finish what you started Kale,

00:58:21in front of all of them,

00:58:23Kale's teeth sink into the back of my neck,

00:58:26white light erupts from the bite,

00:58:27a white crescent appears,

00:58:29the older wolves dropped low,

00:58:31shaking,

00:58:32they knew that mark,

00:58:34a claiming mark,

00:58:35always heals over red,

00:58:36mine blazed moon white,

00:58:38bright enough to hurt,

00:58:40Ragnar stared at the mark,

00:58:41and went stitted,

00:58:42that mark,

00:58:43it can't be,

00:58:44what happened,

00:58:46why is everyone bowing,

00:58:48no one answered her,

00:58:50the young ones never knew,

00:58:51Davin looks at my neck,

00:58:53then at his father,

00:58:54father,

00:58:55what is that mark,

00:58:56Ragnar didn't speak,

00:58:58his hands were shaking,

00:59:00he stared at me,

00:59:01the way you stare at the dead,

00:59:02come back,

00:59:03I touched the white crescent,

00:59:04on my neck,

00:59:05I knew exactly what it meant,

00:59:07my mother told me once,

00:59:08they buried the white wolf,

00:59:10lifetimes ago,

00:59:11tonight she marked me,

00:59:12as her own,

00:59:13you killed the white wolf once,

00:59:15did you think she'd stay down,

00:59:19you know,

00:59:21I don't know,

00:59:23I don't know,

00:59:25I don't know,

00:59:26I don't know,

00:59:34the day I gave birth,

00:59:37my mate called our pup a mutt,

00:59:40he threw us both to the pack,

00:59:42under the full moon,

00:59:43I held my pup to my chest,

00:59:45they ripped her out of my arms,

00:59:47I watched the pack tear her apart,

00:59:49I heard her cry stop,

00:59:50then they came for me,

00:59:51teeth in my throat,

00:59:52my own mate,

00:59:53bleeding them,

00:59:54I cursed him with my dying breath,

00:59:56moon goddess,

00:59:57give me one more life,

00:59:58I'll make him pay,

00:59:59then I jolted awake,

01:00:00my heart was pounding in my ears,

01:00:02same room,

01:00:03same faces,

01:00:04I was back,

01:00:05the day at Darin,

01:00:06rejected me,

01:00:07moon gave me one more life,

01:00:08for one reason,

01:00:09to bury him,

01:00:10Draven stands across the room,

01:00:12his eyes found me,

01:00:13the same disgust he wore,

01:00:14the night he watched me die,

01:00:16he reborn too,

01:00:17elders,

01:00:18witness me,

01:00:26I reject Lyra Mooncrest,

01:00:28as my fated mate,

01:00:29the room went dead silent,

01:00:32rejecting the mate,

01:00:33the moon chose for you,

01:00:33is taboo,

01:00:34then the bond,

01:00:35ripped out of me,

01:00:37the pain hit my chest,

01:00:38and dropped me,

01:00:39I looked up at Draven,

01:00:40his face moved nothing,

01:00:42he just turned back,

01:00:43to Selina,

01:00:43Draven,

01:00:44you don't know what you're doing,

01:00:45I know exactly what I'm doing,

01:00:46I choose Selene,

01:00:47Selene rested a hand,

01:00:48on her belly and smiled,

01:00:50she carries my pup,

01:00:51a pure one,

01:00:52they all believed her,

01:00:53Selene shifts clean,

01:00:54her fur comes in pure white,

01:00:56I never shift right,

01:00:57so they call her,

01:00:58the moon's chosen,

01:00:59they call me the stain,

01:01:00the moon got wrong,

01:01:02they had it backwards,

01:01:03Draven crosses the room,

01:01:05he leans in close,

01:01:06you shamed me last life,

01:01:08never again,

01:01:10I gave him my sweetest smile,

01:01:11and said nothing,

01:01:12he wanted the purest air alive,

01:01:14he never knew Selene carried a mutt too,

01:01:16let him find out himself,

01:01:20a rejected mate,

01:01:21loses everything,

01:01:22no protection,

01:01:24no rank,

01:01:25the pack does as it pleases with her,

01:01:27that was the law,

01:01:27Draven just dropped me into,

01:01:29last life,

01:01:30I begged him not to do this,

01:01:31I crawled at his feet,

01:01:33not this time,

01:01:34I stood up,

01:01:35my voice came out steady,

01:01:37then I'll claim my own mate,

01:01:39that's my right under the moon law,

01:01:41the whole hall turned to me,

01:01:43gasps broke out across the room,

01:01:44what,

01:01:46you cut the bond,

01:01:46Draven,

01:01:48so I choose again,

01:01:50the pack elder leaned forward,

01:01:51you know the cost,

01:01:53no pack will protect you,

01:01:54no alpha takes you back,

01:01:56whoever you claim,

01:01:57you're bound to him for life,

01:01:59no undoing it,

01:02:00I know exactly what it costs,

01:02:02I choose him,

01:02:03I pointed to the far corner of the hall,

01:02:05a man leans against a pillar,

01:02:07no one had noticed him before,

01:02:08then he straightened,

01:02:09and the whole pack caught his scent,

01:02:11whispers ran through the room,

01:02:12a lone wolf,

01:02:13no pack,

01:02:14no bloodline,

01:02:15you smell that,

01:02:16he's a mutt,

01:02:18she's choosing a mutt,

01:02:19the hall turned on him,

01:02:20lips curling,

01:02:21you'd really take a stray over a coal,

01:02:23he has more honor than every coal in this room,

01:02:25the hall goes silent,

01:02:27Draven's face darkens,

01:02:28so what if I pick a stray,

01:02:30at least this time I walk away free,

01:02:31I held out my hand to the stranger,

01:02:33what are you waiting for,

01:02:34come here,

01:02:35he pushes off the pillar and crosses to me,

01:02:37he didn't drop his head the way a mutt should,

01:02:40he took my hand,

01:02:42the moment our hands meet I freeze,
