I was born a fragile omega, but my gift of prophecy made me the Saintess of the Northern Packs. The Council of Elders demanded I choose a mate from the Alphas of the great packs. The Alpha I chose was destined to lead the North to victory and be crowned the Alpha King. I chose Alpha Kane without hesitation. He'd saved my life once. On the day of our bonding ceremony, I blushed and trembled as he sank his teeth into my neck. But the moment we were bonded, his true love Scarlett, his childhood Beta, went mad with jealousy. She tried to poison me, and for her crime, the Elders exiled her. She died on the road. And I? I used my prophecies to help Kane win the war, to put him on the throne. After his coronation, he plunged a silver blade into my heart. He murdered me. "Why didn't you save her?! Why didn't you save her?!" Only then did I realize. He'd hated me all along.

Keluarga Mafia Kane memiliki aturan leluhur yang cukup longgar. Sebelum menikah, setiap ahli waris memiliki satu kesempatan untuk mengundi. Jika mendapat undian keberuntungan, mereka dapat memilih pasangan mereka sendiri, tanpa harus mengikuti perjodohan keluarga. Xavier mendapat undian kurang beruntung selama lima tahun berturut-turut. Aku sudah menjalin hubungan dengannya selama tujuh tahun, tetapi masih belum bisa menikah dengannya. Di tahun keenam ini, aku malah mendengar percakapannya dengan tangan kanannya. "Bos, kamu dapat undian keberuntungan lagi." Suara Xavier terdengar lebih dingin dari biasanya. "Ubah jadi undian kurang beruntung seperti dulu." Tangan kanannya merasa ragu dan memberi nasihat, "Bos, kamu sudah ubah undian keberuntungan menjadi undian kurang beruntung selama lima tahun berturut-turut. Kamu nggak takut Celia akan pergi? Celia itu gadis tercantik di Nepilo. Orang yang kejar dia nggak terhitung jumlahnya!" Xavier menyahut dengan percaya diri, "Nggak. Celia sangat mencintaiku. Dia nggak akan menikah dengan orang lain! Ayah Lyra meninggal saat menyelamatkanku. Lyra mau aku menemaninya selama lima tahun. Setelah tahun ini, aku akan berikan Celia pernikahan yang megah sebagai kompensasi." Secercah harapan terakhirku lenyap setelah mendengar kata-kata itu. Xavier mungkin tidak tahu bahwa Keluarga Kane memiliki satu aturan leluhur terakhir. Jika gagal mendapatkan undian keberuntungan enam kali, ahli waris itu akan kehilangan hak untuk memilih pasangan hidupnya sendiri. Sementara itu, aku akan segera menikah dengan orang lain.
