Short filmTranscript
00:00Trin, I think that's the Alpha.
00:03Everyone knew the Alpha was looking for his mate to lead the pack.
00:06It was the most important day of his life.
00:08Following the orders of the Moon Goddess, he would choose his Queen Luna,
00:12the most powerful woman of the clan.
00:15Being part human, part wolf, came with its challenges.
00:18For one, I was singled out and laughed upon all my life.
00:22I'm the only one in my pack that cannot shapeshift,
00:24and thus it's impossible for me to find a mate.
00:27Everyone knew that, and yet I was being forced to attend the Harvest Moon Festival tomorrow.
00:31Every year, a grand ball was thrown for unmated wolves to find their mate.
00:35For some, like Juniper, it was a way to celebrate the bond they share with their mates.
00:40But for me, it was another way to know I was all alone.
00:49When my parents died, Annie Even Carter took me in despite my grandfather's disapproval.
00:53Trinity, is that you?
00:55Yeah, it's me.
00:57I called it home, but it never felt like one. I was just an outsider.
01:01Aunt Eve, about the Harvest Festival, I don't really think...
01:07Grandfather, what are you doing here?
01:11I had a feeling you might embarrass the family at the festival,
01:14so it's my job to see to it that that doesn't happen.
01:18Well, it's a shame you came then, because I'm not going.
01:21Wait, what, Trinity? I thought we were through this.
01:24Pathetic child.
01:27The Harvest Moon Festival is not a choice.
01:30You need to find your wolf mate. It's your destiny.
01:35Why didn't you just disown me when you learned I couldn't shapeshift?
01:39It would be so much easier than this lifetime of rejection.
01:42I'm tired of your foolish questions.
01:45You're going. That's final.
01:49Perhaps this will help you find a decent suitor.
01:53You need all the help you can get.
01:55My grandfather couldn't truly love me, because he could never forgive my mother.
01:59Once a highly respected beta wolf, he lost his status when my mother fled and returned pregnant.
02:05Overnight, the scandal turned our family into laughing stock within the Red Springs pack.
02:09My mother ended her own life not long after, leaving me in my aunt's care.
02:13To my grandfather, I was the root of this family's downfall.
02:17If I had possessed a wolf, he could have gained some political points in the circle.
02:21But that didn't happen.
02:23And that's exactly why it was no question that I had to attend the festival.
02:28Wow.
02:29However, I had no idea that this one night would change my life forever.
02:35You're going to look beautiful.
02:37Thanks, Grandpa.
02:46It was finally the day of the festival.
02:48I had no idea that my destiny was already around the corner, waiting for me.
02:52But then...
02:54I felt a presence around me.
02:56A scent that overpowered everything else.
02:59It feels... strange.
03:02I need to go.
03:04I can't afford for anything to go wrong today.
03:06Well, you're up early.
03:09Something wrong, dear?
03:11I'm fine.
03:14Just went a little faster than usual today.
03:17Well, you'll need to be showered by noon so that we can start getting you ready, okay?
03:24Trinity, you look stunning.
03:27Thanks, honey.
03:31I just hope Grandfather thinks so, too.
03:34You know he just wants you to find a mate.
03:38Speaking of, it might help if you were a little taller, so he got you these.
03:46How am I supposed to walk in them?
03:48I think you'll manage.
03:51Oh, I got that.
03:54Meet you downstairs in five.
04:08Wow, you kids look fantastic.
04:10Thanks, Eve.
04:11Is Trinity ready?
04:13Yeah, let me go get her.
04:18Wow, you look hot, Trinity.
04:21Not if he just stands there like a total dork.
04:24What are you being so quiet for? Tell Trinity she looks pretty.
04:27Um, you look really pretty, Trinity, but you always do.
04:31What was that?
04:33All right, can we just go to the festival?
04:35Yeah.
04:36Let's hit it.
04:44How is this just the driveway?
04:46This place is insane.
04:48Who even owns this place, anyway?
04:51Have you guys ever met the alpha?
04:53I don't think I wanna.
04:55Seems like he's overcompensating for something.
04:58Somebody's jealous.
05:03Is that it?
05:05I think so.
05:06Young lady, what's your name?
05:08Trinity.
05:10Trinity Whitten.
05:12Miss Whitten, you're in group number three.
05:15You'll be having your one-on-one and group meetings with the resident's owner, the alpha,
05:20at the gathering in two months if he fails to find a mate by then.
05:24Please, use this time to mingle with the other pack members.
05:27Wait, do I get a special group or anything?
05:30No.
05:32You may proceed.
05:36All I'm saying is, if you find somebody you wanna do that with tonight, let's celebrate it.
05:44Trin, I think that's the alpha.
05:46Everyone knew the alpha was looking for his mate to lead the pack.
05:49It was the most important day of his life.
05:51Following the orders of the moon goddess, he would choose his queen, Luna,
05:56the most powerful woman of the clan.
05:58All the girls aspired for the title, clinging on to any hope that the alpha would choose them.
06:03He'd never even consider me.
06:05But somewhere deep down, I wished he did.
06:08I don't know why, but the way he was looking at me made my skin burn.
06:12I'm gonna get a drink.
06:15Get me one too.
06:17I'm gonna get a mingling.
06:21It's true.
06:23Oh, Trinity Whitten.
06:25What a surprise.
06:27I don't know why she even bothers still looking for a mate.
06:30She can't even shapeshift.
06:33Oh!
06:36This humiliation wasn't uncommon for me.
06:38I had faced it all my life.
06:40I just wanted to be alone.
06:43Hey, Trin.
06:45Oh, it's you.
06:47I'm just going for a little walk.
06:49It's a lot being here.
06:51I think I just need a second to breathe.
06:53Yeah, no, I totally get it.
06:55Um, can I come with you?
06:57I don't wanna take you from the party.
06:59And I think I just need to be alone.
