"Just let me hold you for a while, please," he said after setting me back down. This time, he laid me in the middle of the bed before sliding in next to me. "What if this was really me? Not a dream version of Lucy but the real thing?" I asked. He reached his hand across to me, pulling my hair behind my ear before pulling me closer to his body. "Well, in real life, you probably would have slapped me for doing this," he said, making us both laugh. Little did he know.

Every time Ryder left our bedroom for the nursery, an inexplicable stabbing pain would pierce through my chest. This agony would last all night until dawn when he returned. I had finally reached my breaking point. At the Full Moon Festival, I announced in front of the entire pack that I was rejecting our mate bond. The pack's mind-link erupted with whispers that the battle had damaged my mind. A golden light ignited in Ryder's eyes as he stared at me in disbelief. "Because I was too busy to check on you when you were injured, you're rejecting our bond over a six month old pup?" I didn't meet his eyes. Instead, my gaze lingered on the faint lipstick mark smudged inside his collar. My voice trembled, yet it did not waver. "Since you love her pup so much, once our bond is severed, you can openly be the father."

Mon fiancé était le meilleur guérisseur de la meute. Son premier amour était aussi sa petite demi-sœur. Elle s'était autrefois interposée pour le sauver d'une flèche d'argent mortelle. Aujourd'hui, la maladie refait surface : elle est atteinte d'un empoisonnement incurable à l'argent et il ne lui reste plus que 21 jours à vivre. Pour l'accompagner jusqu'au bout, il a discrètement injecté dans mon eau un nouveau sérum de blocage de la mémoire qu'il venait de mettre au point, effaçant de force tous les souvenirs que j'avais de notre relation. Il m'a dit : « Ce ne sont que 21 jours. Quand elle sera partie, je te donnerai l'antidote de mes propres mains, et tu te souviendras de moi. » Durant ces 21 jours, il lui a organisé une grande cérémonie, a dansé avec elle le soir de la Fête de la Lune, et l'a laissée partir en lui jurant : « Dans une autre vie, je serai encore ton compagnon. » 21 jours plus tard, les effets du sérum ont disparu. Il s'est agenouillé sous la pluie, les larmes mêlées de sang, et m'a demandé d'une voix brisée : « Le sérum ne dure que 21 jours… Pourquoi m'as-tu oublié pour toujours ? » Je l'ai seulement regardé avec froideur et j'ai répondu : « Désolée. Vous êtes ? »
