Original subtitles

Now you'd better leave this town and go back to Bangkok.

Sudkhet, please take care of her.

This is an amulet that Venerable Grandfather gave you.

He said you should keep it with you all the time.

At least it'll help protect you from the goddess.

Remember this. I'm Anyanee, your only niece.

Welcome to my house.

We're going to stay here until I get Chaiyawong back.

Who is this man?

His name is Singha. Hunting is one of his games.

General Norasingh gruesomely killed wild animals.

I will make them suffer and pay for what they did in the past.

My grudge has to be relieved in this life.

(Previously)

(The Venom's Tale)

(The Venom's Tale)

Sarat.

Yes.

I had dreams of you involving with snakes lately.

I don't think it's normal.

You should stay away from snakes and everything related to it.

I know you mean well, trying to save all those animals.

But I can't help thinking that there might be higher power at work here.

You might get bitten by a snake

- or even worse... - Dad.

Look. I'm fine.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

I warned you the last time you went to the northeast.

Something bad happened, didn't it?

I'm worried about you.

Please don't put your neck on the line.

Okay, Dad.

Oh, there you are.

What's up?

Mr. Singha is here to see you.

He said it's urgent.

Tough luck for you, Singha,

running into an upright officer like that.

But if you did nothing wrong, you don't have to worry, right?

Leave it to the court.

But I'm really in a pickle here, Chukiat.

The press won't leave me alone.

To the world, I'm now known as a brute who hunts protected animals,

even if I didn't do anything.

All I did was running into some hunters and greeted them casually.

Now they think I'm one of them.

Chukiat, you have a lot of connections.

You know lots of powerful people.

All I ask is for you to help me out a little bit.

You put me in a difficult spot here, Singha.

You know I've always kept my hands clean.

If I get myself involved,

it's going to hurt my company's image.

Come on, Chukiat Don't we go back a long way?

I've been helping your business

since the first house in the first project.

Aren't I the one who helped you find the perfect spot for your estate?

What I'm asking

is a very small favor. Come on.

Things you mentioned have nothing to do with this.

We are business partners. That's true.

But to ask me to break the law?

That's heavy on my heart, honestly.

I agree with my dad.

If you're innocent, the court will do you justice.

You don't have to be worried.

Just tell them the truth.

For the truth will never betray an honest man.

Why can't you just help us? I'm sure everyone would do the same.

Like when you made the prosecutor dismiss the case

due to lack of evidence?

I think it's unacceptable, Richa.

Sorry, Uncle. I have to give it to you straight.

Please excuse me.

Sarat.

How could you insult my dad like that?

Richa, I'm being honest here.

If you keep encouraging your dad, things might get even worse.

It's my father we're talking about. I won't let him go to jail.

One way or another, I'm getting him out of this.

I came all the way here, hoping your dad could clean this up.

Sarat, please have a talk with him.

I can't bear to see my dad go to jail.

What are you afraid of, Richa?

Do you believe your dad

when he said he didn't take a part in hunting?

I have to go.

I think Singha won't be pleased.

If he really knows me,

he wouldn't have come to ask for my help.

Dad,

you did the right thing.

I'm off to work then.

Protect Prince Chaiyawong!

Sarat!

Come on.

What is it?

What the heck?

I will come and take you back to my home.

I'm scared.

With me by your side, you don't have to be scared.

I promise to love and cherish you.

Chaiyawong, I...

You're the most beautiful woman I've ever met.

It's easy for men to say these words.

I'd be a fool to believe that you do speak from your heart.

I promise you. My love for you is greater than anything in the world.

A snake.

Sarat! Can you hear me?

Sarat! Answer me!

Sarat!

Sarat.

Sarat!

What happened, son?

Are you all right?

I'm okay, Dad.

What are you doing here?

I had a bad feeling about you, so I followed.

And then I saw you black out in your car.

I knocked so many times, but you didn't hear me.

What's going on, son?

It's nothing, Dad.

I have to go.

Wait.

Promise me that whatever happens, you won't hide from me.

We'll go through this together.

Please?

All right, Dad.

Be careful. Okay?

I will.

I'm going then.

King Intawong.

A snake?

(The Cobra Goddess shrine)

Goddess.

I have never wronged anyone

in the slightest.

May my virtues and all the merits I've made,

protect me from the serpent goddess' curse.

Goddess?

I feel your pain.

Don't be afraid.

Whatever happens, you still have me.

Remember, child. Don't let her get to you.

You can always come to me.

Yaimai.

Where have you been? I'm worried about you.

You're not home and don't answer my calls.

I'm fine.

I'm really worried, you know.

Don't forget to tell me before you're going anywhere.

I could even give you a lift.

Okay.

Oh my, look at that brother and sister talking.

Pim. Ploy. How did you get here?

We're waiting for you for ages.

I became so close with your brother that he almost asked me out.

Stop blabbering.

Well. What exactly brings you here?

I need your favor.

What favor?

You see, someone hired us to dance

at the women's antique accessory auction opening tomorrow.

This is a huge gig.

They want us to do the Apsara dance.

That's right.

And the best Apsara dancer is...

you, Yaimai.

Or should we call you Veerada of the Southern Northeast?

Come on. What are you talking about?

Why are you so late?

In this upcoming Southern Northeast women's antique accessory auction,

I intend to donate some of the profits to wildlife foundations.

You have our gratitude, Mr. Wisarut.

In this occasion, I'm having Mr. Sarat, a wildlife expert,

make a presentation for the opening to help the audience see our goal.

Sarat? I think I've heard of him before.

Here, sir.

I've prepared the most beautiful accessory for the auction.

Let me introduce my niece, Anyanee.

Wow.

Isn't that a nine-gems necklace you're wearing?

What a sight to see. It's one of a kind.

In that case, let Anyanee join the show's modeling crews on stage.

Great idea.

(Sarat Ruengkitjanukull, the owner of "Jungle Watcher")

(Pha Mor E Dang)

Yaimai?

Yes, Dad.

Where are you right now?

I'm home, Dad.

Tell me you're safe and sound.

Yes, I am. Don't you worry.

Sudkhet has been taking good care of me.

That's good. You should stay in Bangkok for now.

Let this serpent goddess thing

die down first.

Your mom and I are going to visit you there once things are quiet.

Okay, dad.

One more thing.

Tonight is a night of full moon.

The serpent goddess' curse

might have an effect on you

like she claimed before.

In order to be safe,

please stay home tonight.

Yes, dad.

Good girl.

I have to go now.

I'll talk to you later.

On full moon night...

- Yaimai? - Sudkhet.

It's almost 4 o'clock. Why haven't you dressed up yet?

Sudkhet, I'm scared.

I forgot that tonight is a full moon night.

A full moon night?

If I turn into a snake at the auction,

what am I going to do?

Yaimai, maybe it's not going to happen.

Don't you remember?

Venerable Grandfather Pha gave you an amulet to dispel snakes.

We're in Bangkok right now.

I think we're far away from her power.

I'm here. Don't worry.

I will protect you with my life.

(Shining Blue Star Jewelry Auction)

I hope you like the event, ma'am.

I've heard that you like collecting antiques.

Oh, yes. I really do.

Each piece does not come cheap.

Some are even out of my reach.

- Good evening. - Hello.

Hello, guys.

- Mr. Singha. - Mr. Singha.

- Hello. - Hello, everyone.

Can you give us an update on your illegal hunting case?

I don't think it is a right time and place to talk about it here.

I'm sorry. I hope you understand.

- All right. - Thank you.

Thank you.

Get used to it, Singha.

You're the center of attention now. It'll pass eventually.

I guess so.

How unfortunate that no one wants to help me out.

Auntie, do you know where Sarat is?

Sarat is...

Oh, speak of the devil.

Richa.

Hello, sir.

- Hello. - Have you been here long?

Just a while ago.

Mr. Sarat, it's great you're here.

Can we ask you something?

When can we expect good news from you two?

- We're rooting for you. - When is it?

Speaking of marriage, we'll wait a bit until things are settled down.

But I think it won't be long. Don't you think, Sarat?

Let's take a big family photo since everyone's here.

- Good idea. - This way, please.

Let's take a lot of photos.

Step closer, please.

Who's that girl over there? She's breathtaking.

You're right. I've never seen her before.

Please let me take a few photos of you.

This is Anyanee, my niece.

What's the matter? Did Anyanee's beauty stun you?

I just saw her reflection in the mirror.

She's half-human and half-snake.

You must be seeing things.

See? She has legs just like us.

Believe me. I know what I saw.

Maybe it's because of camera flash.

Dad.

Who's that girl, sweetie?

Her beauty truly commands everyone's attention in this room.

Her name is Anyanee.

I met her when I was working on the cave incident in Sisaket.

Mom. Dad. I'll go prepare my presentation.

This is the presentation video for the opening.

- Thank you. - There's a a hard disk in the bag.

It contains the original file. Just in case.

- Okay. Got it. - Thank you.

I didn't expect I'd meet you here.

If I want to see you, it's not that hard to make it happen.

Perhaps we have something together in the past,

which brings us together once again.

Are you talking about destiny?

You can say that.

For those who shared good and bad deeds in the past,

they will always be reunited, regardless of time and place.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

I'm afraid that people might get it wrong

if they see another girl approach my boyfriend privately.

Richa.

What's the matter?

I was being very subtle that...

you shouldn't mess with a guy who's already in a relationship.

Didn't you get it?

Then let me make myself clear.

Stay away from him.

You must be so insecure that you become paranoid

whenever other women come near him. Isn't it true?

Deep down, you always wonder if he actually loves you.

What are you? A psychic?

Do you think you know everything about people's affairs?

That's right. I must have been one.

That's why I know that in your previous life

you used to ruin someone's love and separate the lovers.

Because of karma, you've never been happy in love in this life.

Hold on.

What's the matter, Richa?

I saw her eyes turn red, like it's not human's eyes.

Nice collection, isn't it?

I assure you. Every piece has its own history worth keeping.

I think all of you will be surprised with our highlights tonight.

I wonder what piece it could be. I can't wait to see it.

I've already registered as an anonymous bidder.

There she is. The owner of the highlight piece.

How elegant she is.

Let me introduce you my niece, Anyanee.

Hello.

How precious.

Take a good look at it.

You might find it somehow familiar to you.

This is my gift to you

for saving my son's life.

Are you called Anyawadee?

Yes, your majesty.

Come closer now.

Chaiyawong, put it on her, will you?

Thank you, mother.

Time may have fogged your memory.

But at least, you once showed me mercy.

You're talking funny, Anyanee. Have we met before?

I don't seem to recall you at all.

But I feel like I've met you before.

I just don't remember when.

Some might not come to know each other in this life.

Perhaps we share the same fate in the previous one.

That's why, in this life, karma has brought us together.

Excuse me. The auction is about to start.

This way, please.

This way, please.

Thank you.

You do amaze me, Anyanee.

I find your conversation with Chukiat quite interesting.

Do you think you and I, by any chance,

might have crossed paths and shared something in the past?

You are a man of power.

Thanks to your good deeds,

you were born wealthy in this life.

However, you'd better be careful.

What you've done to those poor animals are coming to get you.

So, can you enlighten me how to get through this?

No man can defy his fate.

Honey,

Anyanee talks as if she knows us very well. Don't you think so?

What she said about the past gave me chills.

If she can see to the past and the future for real,

she must be a big deal.

I have a feeling that she possesses some kind of mystical power.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

Allow me to welcome you to the Shining Blue Star auction.

Today,

apart from the regular auction we usually held,

we're donating some of our profits

to wildlife foundations, to help protect harmed wild animals.

Up next, we'd like to present you our presentation video.

Let's hear a round of applause.

There's a natural border between Cambodia

and the Southern Northeast of Thailand.

The Cambodians call this mountain

"Panom Dong Rek"

or the carrying-pole mountain.

(Jungle Watcher)

It is a fertile forest full of biological diversity.

It is a home to various animals. Many rare species can be found here.

The most common reptile in the region are snakes.

These rare species become the target of poachers

who hunt, kill, and smuggle them from the forest

to be either eaten or sold to businessmen.

Our primary campaign is about

stop killing animals to preserve the forest.

Our high-end accessories are from the Southern Northeast,

a place full of beautiful culture and tradition

inherited from generation to generation.

We hereby have prepared a special show

to entertain all of you tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I present to you a contemporary Thai dance, The Shining of Esan.

Let's hear a big round of applause.

Yaimai.

(Shining Blue Star Jewelry Auction)

(Shining Blue Star Jewelry Auction)

Let's hear it for our special show.

Where are you going?

I'd like to talk to Yaimai.

Why do you have to?

I just want to see if she's well.

Richa, don't forget that she saved my life.

Sarat.

Yes, it's me.

I've been trying to call you,

but you never answered.

How are you doing?

I'm fine.

But you should stay away from me if you don't want any trouble.

Trouble?

What kind of trouble?

I'm not like others.

How so?

Yaimai,

does something bother you?

You can tell me.

I might be able to help.

Yaimai, you still haven't changed your clothes...

Yaimai.

Oh. It's you, Sarat.

Sudkhet.

Are you here as well?

I didn't expect to see you here.

I'm just an attendee.

The wildlife foundation has funded my documentary.

So I'm here making them a presentation for the opening.

Oh, I see.

Excuse me. I have to get changed.

I have to go as well.

Uncle.

I need you to do something for me.

Of course.

Come on. Let's get home.

Let's go. I'm starving.

Can you give me a spin?

Me?

What is this about?

This is Mr. Wisarut, the owner of all accessories you see here.

- Hello. - Hello.

The thing is,

I'm looking for a model for tonight's highlight piece

because the original model is now unavailable.

Can you help me?

I don't think I can do it.

I'm not asking a lot.

Just put on some pretty dress, wear this necklace,

and be on the stage for a little while. That's all

Don't worry. I'll pay you 20,000 baht for this job.

Will you help me?

I'm so sorry. But Yaimai isn't feeling well.

I saw you doing fine with the dance just a while ago.

Please help me.

This is a good chance for you. You might do well at this career.

Come on.

What do you say? You're the only one who can do this.

This is also a charity event to help poor hunted animals.

If you help me, it's like you're helping them as well.

All right. Are you in?

Let's dress her up, guys.

- Give her a nice hair-do. Okay? - Let me do it.

This way, please. Come on.

Here, sir.

Don't worry. I'll take care of her.

Take off the amulet necklace that she's wearing

and replace it with my necklace.

What are you up to, goddess?

I'm not going to kill her, Morakot.

Right now, Chaiyawong is taking interest in Maneewan.

It reminds me how she won his heart in the past.

I'll make him watch her

turn into a beast he despises so much.
