En mi vida pasada, mi hermano, solo porque su amante dijo que quería ver una lluvia de estrellas, se llevó a todos sus guardaespaldas y manejó hasta las afueras para armarle una noche bajo las estrellas. Ni se lo esperaba, pero los enemigos que mi hermano había jodido aprovecharon la oportunidad, y se metieron a la casa queriendo acabarnos por venganza. Mi madre luchó a muerte para protegerme, quedando fatalmente herida, debatiéndose entre la vida y la muerte. Llamé mil veces al celular de mi hermano, rogándole que se regresara cuanto antes para rescatarnos. Al final, no le quedó más remedio que regresar con sus guardaespaldas. Atraparon a los enemigos, pero de las afueras llegaron noticias horribles. La amante de mi hermano había dejado una carta de despedida, y no se sabía si seguía viva o no. En la carta me echaba la culpa a mí, decía que yo había alejado a mi hermano a propósito, y que por eso los enemigos la habían torturado, y al final se había suicidado. Mi hermano, bien frío, quemó su carta y me dijo que no le diera tantas vueltas. Después del incidente, culparon a mi hermano, y mi padre prometió dejarme a mí el manejo de la empresa familiar. Pero, después de que se acabó la cena de celebración, mi hermano me asesinó cruelmente en mi recámara. Con cara de nada, me dijo con frialdad: —Alguien tan malvada como tú ya debería haberse muerto hace mucho. ¡Tú eres la que debería estar muerta, y el derecho de heredar la familia también debería ser mío! Morí con los ojos abiertos, y, cuando «volví en mí», afuera de la mansión se oía cómo los enemigos forzaban la puerta.

En el aniversario de nuestra unión como compañeros, mis piernas rodeaban a mi Alfa, Adrian, mientras compartíamos un beso profundo. Mis dedos rozaron el bolsillo oculto de mi vestido de seda, mi mano se apretó alrededor de la prueba de embarazo que había escondido allí. Sentí el leve aleteo de una nueva vida dentro de mí, estaba planeando darle esta sorpresa como el final perfecto para nuestra velada. Justo entonces, el Beta de Adrian, Ethan, habló en voz baja y burlona, usando la Lengua Antigua. —Alfa, esa cuñada tuya... la loba recién madurada, Zoe. ¿Qué tal estaba? La risita baja y sugerente de Adrian llegó a mis oídos, silenciosa pero penetrantemente clara. Respondió en la misma lengua antigua. —¿Has probado los frescos chiles maduros? Son picantes, con un buen toque de sabor. Su palma aún acariciaba mi cintura, pero su mirada se había desviado a otro lado. —Solo guarda silencio. Si mi Luna se entera, se acabó. Los otros Betas soltaron risitas cómplices, alzando sus copas en una promesa silenciosa de guardar el secreto. Pero un escalofrío me recorrió el cuerpo, y mi loba interior se aquietó, como si hubiera muerto. Él no sabía que yo había estudiado la Lengua Antigua para mi investigación sobre el trauma de los hombres lobo. Entendía cada palabra. Contuve las lágrimas, obligándome a mostrarme impasible, manteniendo la compostura que se esperaba de una Luna. En lugar de enfrentarlo, envié un mensaje protegido mágicamente a la Anciana Slone de la Asociación de Sanadores de Hombres Lobo, aceptando la invitación que me había extendido. En tres días, me uniría a un programa de rehabilitación de hombres lobo de alta seguridad como su nueva Terapeuta Principal y desaparecería para siempre del mundo de Adrian.

Sin embargo, el destino tenía otros planes: en su círculo social, ya solo quedaban ellos dos como candidatos «adecuados» para un matrimonio por conveniencia. Gabriel juró que preferiría morirse antes que casarse con Julieta, mientras que ella, con una sonrisa irónica, respondía: —Entonces ya está decidido. Me casaré contigo. Apúrate y muérete. El día de la boda, Gabriel soltó decenas de gallinas en plena ceremonia para humillarla. Julieta, impasible, alzó una y dijo en voz alta: —Saluda, esposo mío.

La mujer que él menos quería, era justo la que más empeño tenía en casarse con él. —Te vas a arrepentir —le dijo con desprecio.
