A Ascensão Da Luna Feia

Am Jahrestag unserer Paarung hatte ich die Beine um meinen Alpha Adrian geschlungen, während wir uns in einem tiefen Kuss verloren. Meine Fingerspitzen streiften die versteckte Tasche meines Seidenkleides, und meine Hand umklammerte den Schwangerschaftstest, den ich dort verborgen hielt. Ich spürte das zarte Flattern neuen Lebens in mir und plante, ihm diese Überraschung als perfekten Abschluss unseres Abends zu schenken. In diesem Moment sprach Adrians Beta Ethan mit leiser, neckischer Stimme – in der Alten Sprache. „Alpha, diese kleine Schwägerin von dir ... die frisch gereifte Wölfin Zoe. Wie hat sie geschmeckt?“ Adrians tiefes, anzügliches Schmunzeln drang an mein Ohr, leise, doch schneidend klar. Er antwortete in derselben alten Sprache: „Kennst du eine frisch gereifte Chilischote? Heiß, mit ordentlich Biss.“ Seine Hand strich noch immer über meine Taille, doch sein Blick war bereits woanders. „Halt es einfach geheim. Wenn meine Luna davon erfährt, ist alles vorbei.“ Die anderen Betas lachten wissend auf und hoben ihre Gläser – ein stummes Versprechen, sein Geheimnis zu wahren. Doch eine eisige Kälte durchströmte mich, und meine innere Wölfin erstarrte, als wäre sie gestorben. Er wusste nicht, dass ich für meine Forschung zu Werwolf-Traumata die Alte Sprache studiert hatte. Ich verstand jedes einzelne Wort. Ich hielt die Tränen zurück und zwang mich, ungerührt zu wirken, während ich die Fassung bewahrte, die man von einer Luna erwartete. Statt ihn zur Rede zu stellen, sandte ich eine magisch abgeschirmte Nachricht an Älteste Slone von der Vereinigung der Werwolf-Heiler und nahm die Einladung an, die sie mir ausgesprochen hatte. In drei Tagen würde ich mich einem geschützten Werwolf-Rehabilitationsprogramm anschließen – als neue leitende Therapeutin – und für immer aus Adrians Welt verschwinden.

I train so hard that even in my sleep, I recite medical formulas. At long last, victory is mine! I am the champion of the Healers' Competition. But just as they place the trophy in my hands, my twin sister, Sasha Flanders, strides onto the stage and snatches it away. With brazen conviction, she declares, "I'm the true champion! My sister swapped the competitor's information to steal this honor from me!" The audience gasps in an uproar. Before my stunned eyes, the judges revoke my title on the spot. I don't yet realize that this competition is no ordinary contest—it is the Alpha King Leonard Muller's secret trial, one that is meant to select his future Luna Queen. Rumor paints him as monstrous—hideous of face, bloodthirsty in nature, and treats women as nothing more than breeding machines. It is said this is why he has never taken a mate. His summons arrived this very night, commanding Sasha to attend the coronation ceremony as Luna Queen. My Beta fiance, Timothy Newsom, turns ashen with rage. The next day, Sasha comes to flaunt herself before me, her neck freshly marked, carrying Timothy's scent. "Oh, my poor sister. Your precious fiance marked me. What will you do now? You're turning 25 in three days. By our pack's law, if no one claims you, you'll be thrown to the impotent, deranged, and broken wolves no one else will have. You'll be worse than trash." Her shrill laughter cracks in my ears, squeezing the breath from my chest. But I will not let that break me. I went straight to my parents. "If Sasha dares not to be Luna Queen… then let me take her place."

“I’m not a man, Little Pup. I will never be your knight in shining armor. I will never love you. I will never be your mate,” he said those words to her while making her feel things she had never felt. Sasha Thorne had always known one day her father would use her in his quest for power, even though she was wolfless and the lowest-ranked person in his pack. To her father, she was nothing more than an insult from the goddess. When that time comes, her father offers her as a bride to Cassian Whitehorn. He is a man with no heart. He is cold, ruthless, and unpredictable. He only wanted an heir from her, and she only wanted to escape the monster who brought her on this earth.  But what happens when his coldness is met with a warm smile that melts even the coldest ice? When his ruthless nature clashes with her compassion? It was only meant to be a deal, an heir for freedom. But when she takes what is his and runs. He will burn the world to bring back his heir and her.

“I, Alpha Draco of the Peony pack hereby reject you, Helena, as my mate. I refuse to have anything to do with you anymore. You will be banished from this pack, never to set foot on this land anymore or you will pay for it with your life” his thick voice boomed through the cold and dark cell where I was kept all day with no food or water. My chapped lips parted painfully as the flesh drew each other tightly. I couldn’t even beg or plead for mercy. It was a miracle that I was not even killed because I was probably the most hated person in the pack at that moment. He didn’t allow me to utter whatever I had in mind before he turned his back on me. My finger grazed his cold hand as I tried to hold onto him, I was late. The warm eyes that had always behold me now look at me with disdain. There was no hope anywhere, his extreme sadness was visible even through his back as his footstep retracted into the long distance. At the loud clunk of the prison’s door kissing its hinge, my whole world crumbled. The only thing left in me was the small life breathing in my womb, something Draco never knew of. Right there, I made the resolution to live for my baby and find out the truth behind what happened in the pack that night.

Le jour de l'anniversaire de notre union, mes jambes se sont enroulées autour de mon Alpha, Adrian, alors que nous avons partagé un baiser profond. Mes doigts ont effleuré la poche cachée de ma robe de soie, ma main s'étant resserrée autour du test de grossesse que j'y avais dissimulé. J'ai senti le léger battement d'une nouvelle vie en moi, ayant prévu de lui offrir cette surprise comme la conclusion parfaite de notre soirée. À ce moment-là, le Bêta d'Adrian, Ethan, a parlé d'un ton bas et taquin, utilisant l'Ancienne Langue. « Alpha, cette petite belle-sœur à toi… la louve récemment maturée, Zoé. Quel goût avait-elle ? » Le rire bas et suggestif d'Adrian a atteint mes oreilles, discret mais terriblement clair. Il a répondu dans la même langue ancienne. « Tu connais un piment fraîchement mûr ? Épicé, avec un vrai coup de fouet. » Sa paume caressait encore ma taille, mais son regard s'est détourné ailleurs. « Garde-le juste pour toi. Si ma Luna découvre, tout est fini. » Les autres Bêtas ont laissé échapper des rires complices, levant leurs verres dans une promesse silencieuse de garder ce secret. Mais un frisson m'a parcourue, et ma louve intérieure s'est figée, comme si elle était morte. Adrian ne savait pas que j'avais étudié l'Ancienne Langue pour mes recherches sur le traumatisme des loups-garous. J'avais compris chaque mot. J'ai retenu mes larmes, m'étant forcée à paraître impassible, maintenant la contenance attendue d'une Luna. Au lieu de l'affronter, j'ai envoyé un message magiquement protégé au doyen Slone de l'Association des Guérisseurs de Loups-Garous, acceptant l'invitation qu'elle m'avait adressée. Trois jours plus tard, j'ai rejoint un programme sécurisé de réhabilitation pour loups-garous en tant que nouvelle Guérisseuse en Chef et j'ai disparu à jamais du monde d'Adrian.
