J'étais autrefois la Bêta la plus forte de la meute. J'ai brisé ma louve en sauvant mon compagnon, l'Alpha Damon. J'ai perdu l'ouïe. J'ai perdu notre lien mental. Mais Damon ne m'a jamais traitée comme si j'étais handicapée. Il a appris la langue des signes pour moi. Il s'est assuré que toute la meute me respecte en tant que leur Luna. Notre fille était adorable et parfaite. Elle me montrait toujours à quel point elle m'aimait. Puis un jour, c'est arrivé. J'ai retrouvé l'ouïe, le lien mental s'est rétabli. J'étais tellement excitée. Je voulais l'annoncer à Damon et Lily lors de la cérémonie de la pleine lune. Au lieu de cela, je les ai entendus. Lily, ma précieuse fille, parlait à Damon via notre lien. « Papa, l'infirme porte toujours mon frère. Quand pourrons-nous ramener maman Elara à la maison ? Je veux qu'elle soit notre vraie Luna ! » C'est là que j'ai compris : ma fille, le fils dans mon ventre, ils ne m'appartenaient jamais. Ils appartenaient à Elara. Elara était une oméga métisse. Elle ne pouvait pas porter les petits d'un Alpha. Je n'étais qu'une mère porteuse, une incubatrice vivante. Damon m'a donné du poison pour me rendre stérile. Puis il a utilisé la magie noire pour implanter l'enfant de son amante en moi. J'ai tremblé, les larmes coulaient sur mon visage. Damon m'a trahie et j'allais réduire son monde en cendres. Ensuite, je disparaîtrais à jamais de sa vie.

Mon compagnon destiné, Dexter, est devenu le roi Alpha lorsque son frère est mort. Il a hérité de la couronne, du pouvoir… et de la compagne veuve de son frère, Jenica. Tout cela parce que moi, une hybride, n'avais pas réussi pendant des années à lui donner un héritier de sang pur. Il m'a dit qu'il devait marquer Jenica, et la douleur m'a presque brisée. Mais il m'a serrée contre lui, a embrassé mes larmes et a juré que son loup, son destin, ne m'avait choisie que moi. Que je serais toujours sa seule et unique Luna. Je lui ai cru. Et pourtant, il passait encore toutes les nuits dans le lit de Jenica. Puis, Jenica est tombée enceinte. Alors que la meute célébrait, Dexter m'a forcée à quitter la suite de la Luna, uniquement pour que son petit soit né dans l'aura lunaire la plus pure de la meute. Alors que je sentais notre lien se déliter fil par fil douloureusement, j'ai envoyé un message codé à un ami dans le monde des humains. « Dans quatre jours, fais-moi sortir. » Cette nuit-là, j'ai fait un choix. Mon temps en tant que sa compagne était terminé.

I got pregnant at the same time as Sabine, my blood-mate Draven’s first love. But her child wasn't his. It was a werewolf mongrel—the spawn of our clan's sworn enemy. To protect her, Draven claimed the mongrel as his own. He named it the heir to our clan. And my child, a true pureblood, was branded a bastard. By his own father. "Isolde," he gripped my hand, his golden eyes pleading. "Sabine is alone. The Elders will execute her. This is temporary. Trust me!" I was a fool. I believed him. While he was gone, escorting her to safety, his parents dragged me to the ritual chamber. They forced the cruel "Blood Purification" on me. By the time he returned, I was gone. And our child was dead.

The night of the Blood Moon Hunt, our pack was ambushed. We were being slaughtered. Yet my mate, Alpha Ridley, chose to save his first love, Yolia, without a second thought. He told me to stay behind and hold the line, claiming it was my duty as Luna. He claimed his precious Yolia was a vital warrior who needed to be protected. Even my own son, Leo, stood by Yolia's side to defend her. I was captured by the rival pack, tortured with a silver dagger until I was on the brink of death. Just as I was about to give up, a voice echoed in my mind. "The blood of the Luna Prime flows through your veins. You have three days. Let your life end before the eyes of your fated mate, or the one you love most, and you will be reborn." A power surged inside me, calling to me. I ran toward that glorious death, embracing it. But as I drew my last breath, I saw Ridley and our son, Leo, fall to their knees, howling my name, begging for a return I would never grant them.

Mein Schicksalsgefährte Dexter wurde zum Alpha-König, als sein Bruder starb. Er erbte die Krone, die Macht ... und die verwitwete Gefährtin seines Bruders, Jenica. Nur weil ich, ein Halbblut, es jahrelang nicht geschafft hatte, ihm einen reinblütigen Erben zu schenken. Er sagte mir, er müsse Jenica markieren, und der Schmerz hätte mich beinahe zerbrochen. Aber er hielt mich fest, küsste meine Tränen und schwor, sein Wolf, sein Schicksal, habe nur mich gewählt. Dass ich immer seine eine und einzige Luna sein würde. Ich glaubte ihm. Und trotzdem verbrachte er jede Nacht in ihrem Bett. Dann wurde Jenica schwanger. Während das Rudel feierte, jagte Dexter mich aus der Luna-Suite – nur damit ihr Welpe in der reinsten Mond-Aura des Rudels zur Welt kommen konnte. Als ich spürte, wie unsere Gefährtenbindung Faden für Faden, schmerzhaft, auseinanderfiel, schickte ich einer Freundin in der Menschenwelt eine letzte, codierte Nachricht. „In vier Tagen holst du mich hier raus.“ In dieser Nacht traf ich eine Entscheidung. Meine Zeit als seine Gefährtin war vorbei.
