Mais elle ne s'était pas attendue à ce que Mathieu Delaunay devienne fou, la cherchant partout, désespérément.

Après que ma vingtième demande de lien mental ait été ignorée par mes parents, j'ai foncé vers le Conseil des affaires de la meute. Le rapport médical en main, j'ai lancé sans préambule : « Bonjour, je veux renoncer à mon identité au sein de la meute... et IMMÉDIATEMENT ! » Dix minutes plus tard, mes parents ont fait irruption dans la salle, traînant ma sœur adoptive Elsa. Tous les trois avaient l'air terrifié. Mon père, un Bêta, les crocs apparents et les griffes frémissantes, s'est avancé en hurlant : « Tu n'es qu'une enfant gâtée en quête d'attention ! Arrête ton numéro, tu me fais honte ! » Ma mère, médecin légiste de la meute, a arraché mon rapport, y a jeté un coup d'œil et a ricané : « Tu as falsifié ça juste pour qu'on s'intéresse à toi ? Tu as toujours été une menteuse pathologique. » Elsa, accrochée à leurs manches, sanglotait : « C'est de ma faute… Je devrais pas insister pour organiser cette cérémonie de transformation… Je suis désolée, mais Jennifer, arrête de mentir pour manipuler la culpabilité de papa et maman ! » Je me suis calmement essuyé le sang qui coulait de mon nez, me suis redressée et ai répété à la conseillère : « Je n'ai plus de famille depuis longtemps. Effacez toutes mes traces du registre de la meute. Mes funérailles sont dans trois jours, et je veux pas les retarder. »

« Tu n'es pas une fille de notre meute. », siffle ma mère entre ses dents, ses yeux dorés illuminés par le feu de bois. « Si tu ne peux pas soutenir ta sœur Alpha, alors pars. » Je devrais avoir vu ça venir. À la meute de la Brume de Cendres, la famille signifie plus que tout autre chose - à part pour moi. Véra Darkthorne, la déception. Tandis que ma sœur parfaite, Éris, possède l'amour de tous, le titre, et même mon compagnon, Cain, moi, j'ai eu une cérémonie d'union où personne n'est venue. Même l'homme qui a promis qu'il serait toujours mien ne s'y est pas montré. Cette nuit-là, j'ai fui. Maintenant, je construis une nouvelle vie au syndicat clandestin des loups-garous de Berlin, là où la force règne. J'ai appris à me battre, à diriger, et à faire reculer un loup qui fait deux fois ma taille avec un simple regard. Mais quand je reçois la nouvelle d'Éris en train de mourir, la meute me demande d'y retourner. « Reviens chez toi, Véra. », la voix de mon père sonne à l'autre bout du fil. « Ta sœur a besoin de toi. » Je ris presque. Après tout ce qui s'est passé ? Mais cette fois, je ne suis plus la louve faible qu'ils avaient autrefois laissée derrière eux. Cette fois, j'ai des crocs bien aiguisés. Quand les loups te chassent, tu ne t'enfuis pas - tu leur brises le coup d'abord.
