Their hands clasp — her slender fingers, his strong grasp. The physical connection of the new mate bond. V.O.: Everyone knew I'd once foolishly loved Kain. I'd declared it at every pack dance. Taken a silver blade for him. Cayce? He was the coldest, fiercest wolf among us. A true omen of death. No one dared go near him.

His voice booms through the hall. "So it is! The promise is fulfilled! By the will of the Moon Goddess and the blood of my brother, Cayce Moonfang is chosen! He is your mate, and he shall be the next Alpha!" The pack begins a low, uncertain rumble. 0:05-0:09 (Close-up) Cayce steps down from the dais and walks towards Eve. He stops before her, looking down into her eyes. He reaches out. His fingers gently brush a strand of dark hair from her face. The gesture is tender, yet his expression remains unyielding, his blue eyes intense. 0:09-0:12 (Two-shot) Eve and Cayce face each other, hands joined. She looks up at him, her calm mask softening slightly. His grip is firm, warm. The new mate bond is visually acknowledged in their stance. 0:12-0:15 (Wide shot) Behind them, Kain stares. His face is a twisted mask of fury, confusion, and dawning, terrible realization. He sees Eve's hand in Cayce's, the intimacy of the hair-brush. He understands his humiliation is complete, and something worse — a future he cannot control. The pack murmurs around them, all Caucasian faces watching the shift in power. V.O.: But they didn't know the truth. In my last life, I was mated to Kain. On our Bonding day, he slept with my cousin, Lena. My mother sent her away. Kain blamed me. He tortured me. When I was pregnant with his pup... he locked me in a dungeon. My pup was crushed. I died consumed by hatred. Perhaps the Moon Goddess pitied me. She gave me a chance to do it all over again. I came back. This time? I let Kain keep Lena. I never thought... he'd know a day of regret.
