Nora Jensen hat für alles einen Plan. Abschlussjahr? Durchgeplant. Bewerbungen fürs College? Erledigt. Gefühle für Cole Whitaker, den unerträglich charmanten Hockeystar der Millbrook High? Ganz sicher kein Teil dieses Plans. Doch als Cole an ihrem Spind auftaucht, mit diesem Blick, den er niemals zugeben würde, diesem verzweifelten, und sagt: Du schuldest mir was, hört Nora sich selbst zustimmen. Zu dem lächerlichsten Gefallen ihres Lebens. Ein Familienessen. Eine falsche Freundin. Einfach. Klar. Ohne Gefühle. Nur ist an Cole Whitaker rein gar nichts einfach. Nicht die Art, wie er sich ihre Kaffeebestellung merkt, ohne zu fragen. Nicht die Art, wie er seine Lieblingsfarbe als das Eis vor dem Spiel beschreibt, kurz bevor das große Licht angeht. Und nicht die Art, wie er sie nach dem Abendessen auf der Veranda ansieht, als wäre sie etwas, das es wert ist, behalten zu werden, während sie so tun soll, als würde er sie gar nicht ansehen. Nora hat einen Deal gemacht. Sie hat nur das Kleingedruckte nicht gelesen. Den Teil, in dem aus gespielten Abendessen echte Gespräche werden. In dem sich ausgehandelte Bedingungen plötzlich wie Gefühle anfühlen. In dem der Junge, den man nur vorgeben sollte zu lieben, zu der einen Person wird, bei der man sich nicht mehr verstellen kann. Die Regeln waren einfach. Halte nicht seine Hand. Sieh ihn nicht so an, als würdest du ihn mögen. Verlieb dich nicht. Zwei von drei sind gar nicht schlecht.

Meu filho de três anos, Ethan, se perdeu e acabou no território dos renegados, onde foi brutalmente assassinado. Quando fiquei sabendo disso, eu simplesmente desmaiei. Quando acordei, meu companheiro Alfa, Alexander, segurava minha mão com força. A voz dele estava rouca de tanto chorar. — Ivy, eu juro que vou vingar o Ethan. Vou dilacerar esses malditos renegados com minhas próprias garras. Mas apenas três dias depois, durante o funeral, eu ouvi uma conversa entre Alexander e o seu Beta, Marcus. — Alfa, eu não entendo — Marcus parecia confuso — Por que você não deixou o médico da alcateia salvar o Ethan? Ele só estava muito machucado, mas se tivéssemos agido a tempo... — Foi o Lucas. Ele empurrou o Ethan sem querer no território dos renegados — a voz de Alexander estava carregada de dor — mas ele é só uma criança que não conhece os limites do território. Ele não fez de propósito. — Se eu tivesse deixado o médico cuidar do Ethan, o menino teria contado a verdade a todos. Sophia acabaria presa e o Conselho condenaria Lucas à morte. Eu não podia deixar isso acontecer. — Alexander completou. — Mas e o herdeiro da alcateia? — Marcus perguntou, apreensivo. — Não faz diferença — a voz de Alexander voltou a uma calma assustadora — Assim que Ivy se acalmar, eu vou trazer o Lucas de volta. Nós vamos dizer que ele é um órfão adotado e o próximo Alfa será criado pela própria Ivy. Então, a pessoa que matou o meu filho era o filho ilegítimo dele com a amante. Meu filho poderia ter sido salvo, mas Alexander preferiu sacrificar o meu Ethan por causa desse bastardo. Disquei um número que não ligava há cinco anos. — Papai, sou eu. A Ivy. — Mudei de ideia — disse, com a voz soando fria e firme. — Vou voltar para herdar a Alcateia Real. — E quanto à Alcateia Pedra da Lua? — Eu quero que a Pedra da Lua seja apagada da existência.

The first day I return to the country, my future mother-in-law, Sophia Damer, smacks a check against my face and says, "Here's five million dollars. Leave my son alone. The Simpsons cannot accept a gold-digging nobody like you!" Before I can even explain myself, the young woman in a white dress hiding behind her says, "Please don't do this, Sophia. If this young lady treats Jay well enough, I don't mind caring for him with her, too." I chuckle. So, Sophia and Crystal Richmond, my half-sister, think that I'm the evil mistress who tried stealing her man away from her, when Jayson Simpson was my boyfriend the entire time. And yet, Crystal still thinks that she's the legitimate one instead. However, seeing that Crystal still doesn't know who I really am, I pick up the check without even looking at it and stuff it into her V-neck dress. "Nice acting. Here's your reward." Then, I take out a black card and fling it onto the table. "Here's ten million dollars, lady. Tell your son to stay away from me and stop bothering me. I find him disgusting! "Oh, and by the way," I say, pointing at Crystal, who is still being shielded behind Sophia's body. "Might I remind you that this young woman you're protecting is just the bastard kid my dad brought home last year. "If you're thinking of using her to get close to the Richmonds, I'm afraid that you're barking up the wrong tree!"
