Short filmTranscript
00:00Oh my god, it's him, the Alpha.
00:13I told you to stay away from me!
00:19This is it. I'm about to die.
00:26I know I'm in heat when I can't ignore my primal urge to mate.
00:31No...
00:38God, fall days.
00:40You okay, Trin?
00:42Yeah, I'm in heat.
00:44Well, duh, I can smell you from a mile away.
00:50As if going to the Harvest Moon Festival wasn't embarrassing enough as a werewolf who can't shapeshift,
00:54I'll have to go while I'm in heat.
00:56Come on, Trin, it's hot, okay?
00:58The unmated guys will be totally into it, I promise you.
01:01Yeah, right. It's practically a billboard that I'm single and no one wants to be my mate.
01:09Cedar? Watch where you're going, bro.
01:11I'm so sorry.
01:12No, Juniper's right. It's my fault. Sorry, Trin.
01:16God, sometimes I feel like I can't catch a break.
01:19God, what's that smell? Do you smell that?
01:23I'm going to walk home today. I'll see you tomorrow.
01:27Ow! What was that for?
01:29She's in heat, you idiot. Stop checking her out.
01:33I didn't know.
01:36I don't get why life chose to single me out.
01:39Of all my pack, I'm the only one who can't shapeshift, yet somehow I'm still a werewolf?
01:44I wish Juniper understood how hard it was for me, but she already has a mate.
01:50For Juniper, the Harvest Moon Festival would be an opportunity to celebrate her relationship with her boyfriend.
01:55For the rest of us singles, and there weren't many, it was the time to find a mate.
02:00But I was never going to find a mate while in heat.
02:05When my parents died, Aunt Eve and my cousin Carter took me in.
02:08Trinity, is that you?
02:10Yeah, it's me.
02:13But even at home, I'm still an outsider.
02:16Aunt Eve?
02:19About the Harvest Festival, I don't really think...
02:22Grandfather, what are you doing here?
02:26I had a feeling you might embarrass the family at the festival, so it's my job to see to it that that doesn't happen.
02:32Well, it's a shame you came then. Because I'm not going.
02:36Wait, what, Trinity? I thought we worked through this.
02:39Pathetic child.
02:41The Harvest Moon Festival is not a choice.
02:45You need to find your wolf mate. It's your destiny.
02:49Why didn't you just disown me? When you learned I couldn't shapeshift?
02:54It would be so much easier than this lifetime of rejection.
02:57I'm tired of your foolish questions. You're going. That's final.
03:06Perhaps this will help you find a decent suitor. You need all the help you can get.
03:11I'd never seen my grandfather quite so angry.
03:14It was one thing to know I was a disappointment to him, and another to feel his disappointment directed at me.
03:20One thing's for sure. I have no way out of the festival.
03:32Wow.
03:39You're going to look beautiful.
03:42Thanks, Grandfather.
03:44Listen, I'm sorry I was a little hard on you earlier.
03:51I just want what's best for you.
03:55Even if he meant well, I somehow always felt like he would never know what was best for me.
04:00But I guess I have to appreciate that he tries to.
04:13Running always helps me clear my mind.
04:23The scent is unfamiliar. Something feels wrong. I have to get back.
04:31Well, you're up early. Something wrong, dear?
04:36I'm fine.
04:39Just went a little faster than usual today.
04:42Well, you'll need to be showered by noon so that we can start getting you ready, okay?
04:49Trinity, you look stunning.
04:52Thanks, honey.
04:56Let's just hope Grandfather thinks so too.
04:59You know he just wants you to find a mate.
05:02Speaking of, it might help if you were a little taller, so he got you these.
05:10How am I supposed to walk in them?
05:13I think you'll manage.
05:15Oh, I got that.
05:18Meet you downstairs in five.
05:32Wow, you kids look fantastic.
05:34Thanks. Eve, is Trin ready?
05:37Yeah, let me go get her.
05:43Wow, you look hot, Trin.
05:46Shut up.
05:47Seriously, you're gonna find a mate tonight?
05:49Maybe Cedar will too.
05:51He's acting so weird.
05:53Maybe he knows I have a crush on him, or maybe he just doesn't think I'm pretty.
05:57Not if he just stands there like a total dork.
06:00What are you being so quiet for? Tell Trin she looks pretty.
06:03Um, you look really pretty, Trinity, but you always do.
06:07What was that?
06:09Alright, can we just go to the festival?
06:11Yeah.
06:12Let's hit it.
06:20How is this just the driveway? This place is insane.
06:24Who even owns this place anyway?
06:27Have you guys ever met the Alpha?
06:29I don't think I wanna.
06:31Seems like he's overcompensating for something.
06:34Somebody's jealous.
06:38Who amongst you is unmated?
06:40Um, me.
06:42Is that it?
06:44Me too.
06:46Young lady, what's your name?
06:48Trinity.
06:50Trinity Witton.
06:52Miss Witton, you're in group number three.
06:55You'll be having your one-on-one and group meetings with the resident's owner, the Alpha,
07:00at the gathering in two months if he fails to find a mate by then.
07:04Please, use this time to mingle with the other pack members.
07:07Wait, do I get a special group or anything?
07:10No.
07:12You may proceed.
07:14Wait, Trin, does that mean you're being considered as a mate for the Alpha?
07:20Ooh, that looks enticing. Don't you think, Trin?
07:24Trinipart, I'm in heat. I'm not a pro.
07:26Listen, all I'm saying is if you find somebody you wanna do that with tonight, we'll celebrate it.
07:34Trin, I think that's the Alpha.
07:36Everyone knew the Alpha was a huge deal.
07:39This was his party after all.
07:41How he was going to find his mate.
07:43But there's no chance he'd ever choose me.
07:46I'm gonna get a drink.
07:48Get me one, too.
07:50I'm gonna get a mingling.
07:54It's true.
07:56Ooh, Trinity Whitten. What a surprise.
08:00I don't know why she even bothers still looking for a mate.
08:03She can't even shape-shift.
08:05Pathetic.
08:08Hey, Trin.
08:10Oh, it's you.
08:12I'm just going for a little walk.
08:14It's a lot being here.
08:16I think I just need a second to breathe.
08:18And I'm sorry.
08:20It's okay.
08:22It's okay.
08:24It's okay.
08:26It's okay.
08:28It's okay.
08:30It's okay.
08:32It's okay.
08:34It's okay.
08:37Yeah, no, I totally get it.
08:39Um, can I come with you?
08:41I don't want to take you from the party.
08:43And I think I just need to be alone.
08:54Maybe I'll never find a mate.
08:57I don't know why she even bothers still looking for a mate.
09:00She can't even shape-shift.
09:02Pathetic.
09:04Maybe I should just leave the pack behind and accept that I don't belong here.
09:09Cedar?
09:12Cedar, is that you?
09:15Cedar, if this is a joke, it's not funny.
09:21Hello?
09:22The dangerous scent.
09:24The same one I smelled when I was running the other day.
09:27That scent.
09:29It's getting stronger.
09:35You're the Alpha, aren't you?
09:47I can't believe he was here with me.
09:49I mean, this is the Alpha.
09:52What could he want with me?
10:01Get away from me.
10:05Now.
10:07I can't be near you.
10:20Tiffany? Where are you?
10:26Nikki, what?
10:27I need to go. Now.
10:29What was that? What happened?
10:31Please, just help me get out of here.
10:34Listen to what she has to say.
10:40Come on, guys. We're leaving.
10:42Is everything okay?
10:48That was humiliating.
10:51Get away from me. Now!
10:56If everyone finds out that I upset the Alpha, they'll think something's wrong with me.
11:02Baby good?
11:04Yeah, I think so.
11:06Just a little shaky.
11:08Hey, you know you can always talk to us.
11:11We're always here. I'm always here.
11:14Thanks, guys.
11:16Sorry I ruined your night.
11:23Hey, I'm home.
11:24Trinity, what happened?
11:26Have you been crying?
11:28The party just wasn't for me.
11:30Are you sure? Because if somebody said something cruel, we can tell the Alpha.
11:34No. Just drop it.
11:36I mean...
11:41I've just already had a rough night.
11:44I don't want to ruin anyone else's.
11:48Carter. Back so soon?
11:50Two.
11:51What happened?
11:52The Alpha got super upset about something and he ordered everyone to go home.
11:58I wonder what happened.
12:00I could ask her the same thing.
12:03Are you a good cousin?
12:05Yeah. Why?
12:08I heard some people say that they saw you with the Alpha.
12:12Of course they blame me. Everyone blames me.
12:15Oh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said anything.
12:20I didn't mean like...
12:21It's okay. I know you didn't. I'm going to go to bed, though.
12:24I'm tired.
12:28I'm worried about her.
12:30We all are, Mom.
12:33The brief encounter with him, it felt so intense.
12:37It was intoxicating.
12:39But then he growled.
12:41What if he banishes me?
12:43I don't even understand what I did wrong.
12:46But I don't know what I would do if I could never see any of my friends again.
12:54Get away from me. Now!
12:57I'm doomed.
13:03Good morning.
13:05No run for you this morning?
13:07No, I didn't sleep well. So I decided to skip it.
13:11Are you sure you're okay?
13:13Do you want some? I made your favorite.
13:16No, thanks Aunt Eve.
13:18I'm going to head to Juniper and Cedars soon. We're going to catch a movie.
13:22Planning more mischief?
13:25Oh, I didn't realize you were still around.
13:28I didn't realize I needed your permission to stay at my daughter's house.
13:31That's not what I meant.
13:33You made quite a little scene last night.
13:35I don't know what you mean.
13:36You ran from the festival in tears.
13:38Did you think I wouldn't hear about it?
13:40That's not true. I didn't just run, I...
13:42You didn't make a commotion and run away? You didn't?
13:45Come on, Trinity, don't lie.
13:48It doesn't suit you.
13:50You don't understand. It all just happened so fast.
13:52You are a disgrace to this family.
13:55Dad.
13:59Dad.
14:00Please, Eve. We can't make excuses for her any longer.
14:04We can't protect her anymore.
14:08I have spoken to the Alpha.
14:10He has graciously agreed to continue considering you as a mate.
14:17You have two months to prove your worth.
14:20Let's hope that he doesn't find another option in the meantime.
14:24What? So you're the reason I ended up on his stupid list?
14:30I wonder what kind of sorcery landed me on that.
14:33I should have known you'd find a way to meddle into my business.
14:35Meddle?
14:37I'm trying to help you, Trinity.
14:40You think a man of his stature would even consider you without my word?
14:51It was probably the worst fight I've ever had with Grandfather.
14:55Wait.
14:58That scent.
15:00I know that scent.
15:10Who are you?
15:11What do you want?
15:15Oh my God.
15:16It's him. The Alpha.
15:18It's him. The Alpha.
15:28I told you to stay away from me!
15:35This is it. I'm about to die.
15:48To be continued...
