“You hired me, to babysit a MAN?” Kiara asked glaring at the Russian mafia don who shrugged. His son stood by the door, his arms crossed over his chest as the two men watched the fuming girl in front of them. “I never said ‘babysit’, I merely said ‘keep out of trouble’” the don answered her casually. “He is a man, he would be at least twenty-five…” “I’m twenty-eight, and thank you for noticing that I’m a man” Alessio said stopping her, sarcasm dripping from his voice. “Ah, see, he’s even polite” his father said raising an eyebrow at Kiara who ran her fingers through her hair as she processed the situation she was in. “You told me to take care of your son!” “I never said that he was a kid though…” ******************** It all started with a job offer, one that united two different worlds.

“I want a divorce.” The room stilled. “Excuse me?” His voice was silk wrapped around steel. “What did you just say?” “You heard me.” I said, getting up from the bed, holding the sheets tightly around my body as I walked towards the dresser. I opened the drawer and pulled out the divorce paper, handing it to him. His eyes darkened. “I want a divorce…” ******************* Be with perfect Luna, they said. Be the lover. The wife. The friend… But what happens when a Luna no longer wants to be? It is a challenge, an outbreak, and a direct offense to the order. And Alpha Xavier… well, he was never known to like rules being broken… Unless it was him breaking them.

"Sedangkan aku berumur sudah seperempat abad. Aku cukup tua dan tidak akan masuk menjadi kriteria utama wanita pilihanmu." Crystal menyeringai meremehkan.

J'étais autrefois la Bêta la plus forte de la meute. J'ai brisé ma louve en sauvant mon compagnon, l'Alpha Damon. J'ai perdu l'ouïe. J'ai perdu notre lien mental. Mais Damon ne m'a jamais traitée comme si j'étais handicapée. Il a appris la langue des signes pour moi. Il s'est assuré que toute la meute me respecte en tant que leur Luna. Notre fille était adorable et parfaite. Elle me montrait toujours à quel point elle m'aimait. Puis un jour, c'est arrivé. J'ai retrouvé l'ouïe, le lien mental s'est rétabli. J'étais tellement excitée. Je voulais l'annoncer à Damon et Lily lors de la cérémonie de la pleine lune. Au lieu de cela, je les ai entendus. Lily, ma précieuse fille, parlait à Damon via notre lien. « Papa, l'infirme porte toujours mon frère. Quand pourrons-nous ramener maman Elara à la maison ? Je veux qu'elle soit notre vraie Luna ! » C'est là que j'ai compris : ma fille, le fils dans mon ventre, ils ne m'appartenaient jamais. Ils appartenaient à Elara. Elara était une oméga métisse. Elle ne pouvait pas porter les petits d'un Alpha. Je n'étais qu'une mère porteuse, une incubatrice vivante. Damon m'a donné du poison pour me rendre stérile. Puis il a utilisé la magie noire pour implanter l'enfant de son amante en moi. J'ai tremblé, les larmes coulaient sur mon visage. Damon m'a trahie et j'allais réduire son monde en cendres. Ensuite, je disparaîtrais à jamais de sa vie.
