Meu marido e eu éramos as duas pessoas que mais se odiavam neste mundo. Ele me odiava por tê-lo arrancado da mulher que amava. E eu o odiava porque seu coração permanecia ocupado por outra. Durante oito anos de casamento, as palavras que mais trocamos não foram de amor, nem de dever, mas maldições. Contudo, no dia em que a cidade caiu, tudo mudou; as bandeiras inimigas já eram visíveis além do portão interno. Ele cavalgou à frente e tomou a estrada, colocando seu corpo entre o inimigo e a minha fuga. — Viva — disse ele calmamente. Então ele ergueu sua lâmina e não olhou para trás. As flechas vieram como chuva. Enquanto elas o perfuravam, ele virou a cabeça uma vez, apenas uma vez. Depois disso, seu corpo bloqueou a estrada, e nada passou. — Se houver outra vida… que Vossa Alteza me conceda a misericórdia de pertencer a ela. Naquela noite, com a cidade em ruínas e o povo morto ou em fuga, subi na torre mais alta do palácio. Eu saltei. Quando abri meus olhos novamente, fui até o rei. — Os reinos do norte exigem uma noiva real — eu disse. — Eu irei. Nesta vida, serei eu a cruzar a fronteira. Em minha vida anterior, ele morreu acreditando que havia falhado com ela. Desta vez, não permitirei que esse arrependimento exista. Assumirei o casamento destinado a ela. Carregarei a coroa destinada a exilá-la. Caminharei em direção a um futuro que ela nunca deveria ter que suportar. Deixe que ela fique. Deixe que ele a proteja. Deixe que ele viva sua vida acreditando que finalmente cumpriu sua promessa.

Me quedé mirando el contrato matrimonial de los Vercetti que mi padre empujó sobre la mesa. Sin pensarlo dos veces, escribí el nombre de mi media hermana, Demi, y se lo devolví deslizándolo. Mi padre se quedó de piedra, antes de que entonces sus ojos se encendieron con una emoción tan absurda que parecía que acababa de ganarse la lotería. —¿Cómo puedes darle a tu hermana una oportunidad tan perfecta? En mi vida pasada, mi matrimonio había sido el chiste de todos. Yo era la pelirroja indomable, la brujita salvaje que se atrevió a meterse en la órbita de Cassian Vercetti, heredero y líder de la familia criminal Vercetti, de sangre vieja. Nunca fui perfecta ni obediente. Mientras a él le encantaban los vestidos de diosa, yo usaba minifaldas y bailaba arriba de las mesas. Él exigía una intimidad misionera: tradicional, ordenada, correcta. Yo quería subirme encima, montarlo, perderme por completo. En una gala, las esposas de la alta sociedad se reían de mi cabello, de mi vestido, de mi «“salvajismo». Pensé que, al menos, él fingiría defenderme; pero no lo hizo. —Perdónenla. Ella no está… debidamente entrenada. «¿Entrenada? Como un perro.» Me había pasado toda mi vida pasada asfixiándome bajo sus reglas, doblándome hasta sangrar para encajar en la forma que él quería… hasta la noche en que nuestra casa se incendió. Tras lo cual, cuando volví a abrir los ojos, me di cuenta de que había regresado al instante exacto en que me enteré del matrimonio arreglado. Miré el contrato frente a mí. «¿Otra vez? Creo que a mí me quedan mejor los chicos de la discoteca». Pero en el momento en que Cassian se dio cuenta de que la novia no era yo, rompió cada regla por la que había vivido.

I struggle with all my might, but Dad restrains me, and Mom breaks my limbs. Then, my sister seals me into the concrete. "Concrete is only brought to life with an actual person sealed inside. It looks so much more defined! It's not like you'll die after being sealed in there for a few days. How can you be so insensible?" The pain of having my limbs broken and my oxygen being cut off leads to me dying within that block of concrete. My body rots and festers inside, but my soul sticks around to watch how my parents dote on their adoptive child. They seem to be happy without me. Finally, I lose all hope in them. But when the liquid from my body seeps out of the concrete, they all lose their minds.

Every werewolf in the Blood Shadow Pack knew one thing—Nicholas Pendle, their Alpha, loved his Luna more than anything. When I complained about the summer heat, he led his warriors to conquer the Blue Lake Pack, just to build me a private summer retreat. When I longed for romance, he lit the sky with fireworks and said, "Julie, I swear to the Moon Goddess, I will never betray you for as long as I live." He planted roses for me with his own hands, then stood before the entire pack and vowed that I was the only one he would ever love. He had my name carved into every corner of the pack, and he granted me equal power—his Luna, standing beside him as his equal. But just now, from his briefcase, something slipped out. A lace dress, one that wasn’t mine.
