My wife's first love kills me without a shred of mercy. But my wife, a world-class surgeon, doesn't try to save me. Instead, she comforts her first love. "He's so ruthless! How could he hurt you this badly?" She even tells the police that I've severely injured her first love, claiming she wants to press charges for attempted murder. Then she points at my body and demands that I get up and apologize to her first love. "Charles, stop pretending! You just want me to pity you, right? Get up and apologize to Steven!" she yells.

As my murderer's claws tear into my abdomen inch by inch, my father and brother are seated in our family's banquet hall. They're celebrating Carly's 18th birthday and coming-of-age. "You'll always be my little girl." "Happy birthday, Carly." They light 18 pink candles for her. On top of the exquisite red velvet cake is a wolf figurine that they carved for her, and there are well wishes and laughter all around. Meanwhile, I'm curled up in a sewer filled with liquid silver as I bleed to death. My phone has been crushed, and I can't get out. I can only cry for help. A few days later, my father and brother show up together at the autopsy room. My brother stands by the operating table with a scalpel. He slices open the body and sews it back up like it's nothing. My father just covers his nose as he shoots a disgusted glance at my body. He urges my brother to hurry up with the autopsy report. "The victim is a young female wolf presumed to be of pure lineage. Before her death, she was subjected to prolonged captivity and torture. Her throat is nearly severed, her cervical spine is dislocated, and her chest cavity has collapsed. She was also injected with liquid silver before death." Hearing the report, my father looks so calm that it's just like a case study of no consequence. Neither of them can recognize that the body belongs to me—their daughter and sister!

Para celebrar el Año Nuevo, íbamos todos de camino a casa de mis abuelos. En plena autopista, mi hermano menor, Jaime Moreno, no paraba de decir que tenía que ir al baño. Mi mamá nos apuró a mi hermana mayor, Olivia Moreno, y a mí: —La próxima estación de servicio todavía está lejos. Vayan ustedes también de una vez, para que después no me salgan otra vez con que quieren ir al baño. ¡Muévanse, rápido, y nada de demorarse! Salí corriendo. Pero al volver, vi nuestro auto, con las luces traseras encendidas, alejarse despacio. Afuera, la temperatura estaba a más de diez grados bajo cero, y aun así, mis padres me habían dejado allí, olvidada, en una estación de servicio vacía. Eché a correr hacia el auto y grité con todas mis fuerzas: —¡Papá! ¡Mamá! Pero el auto dobló, se metió en el tráfico y desapareció por completo.
