« Si tu vexes l'Alpha Charles, Inès peut encore plaider pour toi. Mais si tu agaces Inès, il ne restera même pas tes cendres. » C'est une phrase très répandue dans les cercles aristocratiques des loups-garous. Je suis Inès. À cause d'un simple jeu, j'ai décidé de rompre le pacte du couple avec Charles. Dans le jeu, complètement ivre, il a dit : « J'adore poser ma tête sur le ventre d'une femme enceinte pour écouter les battements du cœur du bébé. » Un silence de mort a envahi la salle. Tous les regards des loups-garous se sont tournés vers moi. Il n'y avait pas de surprise dans ces regards, seulement de la pitié pour moi, la Luna légitime, et de la panique face à un secret révélé. J'ai compris instantanément : ils savaient tous que Charles avait un enfant avec une autre femme, mais ils l'avaient tous aidé à me le cacher. Tout simplement parce qu'ils savaient que j'étais la raison de vivre de Charles. Si j'apprenais la vérité, je partirais. Et Charles, il deviendrait fou. Je devais admettre qu'ils me connaissaient vraiment bien. Après avoir découvert la vérité, j'ai décidé de faire trois choses. Premièrement, j'allais jeter dans un fourneau l'alliance que Charles avait conçue pour moi. Deuxièmement, j'allais enregistrer sur une clé USB la vidéo dans laquelle Lily m'avait provoquée avec son enfant. Troisièmement, j'allais déposer un dossier auprès du Département des Affaires des Loups-Garous pour devenir chercheuse sur l'île glacée, isolée du monde. Le jour où j'ai quitté la tribu était justement le jour de notre septième anniversaire de mariage. Et moi, je disparaîtrais de sa vie comme un filet de fumée.

Aurora Sinclair a tout sacrifié par amour, jusqu'à son propre corps. Elle a donné un rein pour sauver son mari, pour n'être remerciée que par la trahison. Piégée, rejetée, divorcée et ruinée. Mais elle n'était pas seule. Portant l'enfant dont Adrian Kingston ignorait l'existence, Aurora a disparu dans l'ombre, pour se réveiller aux côtés d'un inconnu, un homme aussi brisé qu'elle. Zane Carter. Impétueux. Intouchable. Cachant des secrets plus sombres que ses tatouages. Un homme qui l'a demandée en mariage dans un brouillard d'alcool et de chagrin, et elle a dit oui. Des années plus tard, Aurora est de retour. Non plus comme la femme qu'ils ont détruite, mais comme celle qu'ils devraient craindre. Mais le destin n'en a pas fini avec elle. Adrian est sur le point de se remarier, avec la femme qui a ruiné sa vie. La vérité sur sa trahison se dévoile peu à peu. Et Zane ? Il ne la laissera pas partir. « Tu veux te venger, ma belle ? » Les lèvres de Zane se tordent en un sourire narquois, tandis qu’il fait tourner une cigarette éteinte autour de son doigt. « Réduisons-les en cendres ensemble. » Mais dans ce jeu de mensonges, de pouvoir et de tromperie, qui est le chasseur et qui est la proie ? Car la véritable guerre ne fait que commencer.

I dropped my car off for maintenance at the service center. When it was finished, I told the staff to put it on the tab of my cousin, who ran the shop. The staff member nodded and started to process it, but then the female manager stepped in. "We don't do tabs here. You've got to pay up now," she said, slapping the bill down right in front of me. Premium Diagnostic Scan: $80,000 Exhaust System Sound Enhancement: $100,000 Engine Harmony Calibration: $100,000 Total: $280,000. I laughed at the absurdity. Since when did my cousin start running a rip-off operation? The manager crossed her arms and gave me a snooty once-over. "Always trying to mooch off Chad. I've seen plenty of broke relatives like you. If you can't swing it, don't act like you can." Unwilling to argue with her, I pulled out my phone and called my cousin. "You have ten minutes to fire the manager, or your shop is finished."
