As their relationship deepens, they face a range of challenges from their families' disapproval to the pressures of their different backgrounds.

Nach meiner Wiedergeburt ließ ich die Hexe meine Gefährtenbindung zu Wyatt Galloway auslöschen. Mit einem Zauber, der die Gefährtenbindung übertragen konnte, verpflanzte ich diese Verbindung auf seine Adoptivschwester Jocelyn Latham. Von diesem Tag an würde er glauben, dass Jocelyn seine wahre Gefährtin sei. Noch bevor er etwas merkte, änderte ich den Namen auf der Einladung zur Gefährtenzeremonie. Das maßgeschneiderte, luxuriöse Kleid, das über ein halbes Jahr angefertigt worden war, überreichte ich Jocelyn mit beiden Händen. Wyatt und Jocelyn reisten in den Süden, um das Gebiet zu inspizieren. Im Namen des Alphas beanspruchte er den Platz der Rudels-Luna für Jocelyn und schrieb ihr ein Empfehlungsschreiben für die Emory-Universität in der Menschenwelt. Ich aber kehrte mich ab und begann mein Studium an der Harvard-Universität. In meinem früheren Leben hatten wir zwanzig Jahre zusammengelebt. Am Ende kniete er vor mir und flehte mich an, die Gefährtenmarkierung zu löschen, nur um nach dem Tod mit Jocelyn zusammen bestattet zu werden.
