“You’re useless.” I lift my head, wrists aching where the rope bites into skin already numb from the cold. My father stands over me, his shadow long and sharp in the firelight spilling from the clearing behind him. I can hear the celebration. My sister’s laughter. The pack chanting her name. “I tried,” I say. My voice cracks, and I hate it for that alone. “I did everything you asked.” He scoffs. “Everything?” His gaze drags over me like I’m something rotten. “If you’d done anything right, your mother would still be alive.” My chest burns, each breath a knife. “She chose—” “She died because of you,” he snaps. “Because you were too weak to protect yourself. Too weak to be worth the trouble.” I swallow, tasting blood. “I’m your daughter.” “No,” he says coldly. “You’re a reminder of my failure.” He turns away, already done with me. “Be grateful I’m hiding you instead of killing you. An Alpha can’t afford dead weight.” The rope tightens as he knots it higher, out of reach. He doesn’t look back. Behind him, the pack howls in celebration. I lower my head and let the tears fall silently into the dirt because crying is the only thing they haven’t taken from me yet. But as the night deepens and the forest breathes around me, something else stirs—slow and patient. They call me useless. One day, they’ll choke on that word.

Ayahku menganggap aku terlalu pemberontak, jadi dia menyerahkanku kepada Damian, menugaskannya untuk membentukku menjadi seorang wanita anggun. Bagi dunia luar, Damian adalah pemimpin kejam dari sebuah kerajaan mafia. Tapi bagiku, dia hanyalah pria dengan wajah yang selalu terlihat tegang. Aku mencoba segala cara untuk menentangnya. Aku merusakkan mobilnya. Lalu aku menukar berkas presentasinya dengan rekaman komedi murahan yang paling dia benci dan dia baru menyadarinya saat membuka berkas itu di rapat perusahaaan. Namun, setiap pemberontakanku selalu berakhir sama. Dia memojokkanku, tubuhnya yang besar menutupi tubuhku di atas seprai sutra ranjangnya yang besar, di meja ek yang mengilap, atau di kursi belakang mobilnya yang berlapis kulit. Hangat tubuhnya menyentuh kulitku, jarinya menyapu lekukku seperti bara yang membakar. Gerakannya dipenuhi hasrat liar yang membuatku hampir kehilangan napas. Tubuhku selalu bereaksi meski pikiranku menolak, hingga perlawanku luluh menjadi desahan, dan kehendakku remuk di bawah tindihannya yang tanpa henti. Aku jatuh cinta padanya sepenuhnya, yakin bahwa ini cinta sejati, dan dia adalah cahaya di dunia gelapku. Tapi kenyataannya menghancurkanku. Semua itu hanyalah permainan terencana untuk menaklukkanku, agar aku berhenti berperang dengan kakakku, Karina. Cahaya penunjuk jalanku padam, atau mungkin itu sebenarnya tak pernah ada. Jadi aku menjadi gadis baik dan berhenti melawan. Dia pikir dia sudah menaklukkanku, terikat pada kemauannya. Tapi pada akhirnya, aku berhasil lepas dan meninggalkannya sendiri dengan hati yang hancur.
