On my birthday, Connor Simpson's first love jumped off a building due to depression. She died on the spot. Connor blamed everything on me. I never celebrated my birthday again after she died. After the murderer electrocuted me for more than ten hours, they forced me to call Connor. "Connor, it's my 25th birthday today. Can you come over and spend time with me?" However, Connor did not notice anything unusual. His voice was laced with venomous iciness. "Clarisse Winter, Audrey wouldn't have died if it weren't for you. How dare you ask me to celebrate your birthday? If only you were the one who died." I heard him coaxing a woman on the other end just before he hung up on me. That low and gentle tone was what I loved to hear the most in the past. That night, the murderer cut my body into countless pieces, packed them in bags, and threw them in front of the police station. Connor was summoned back overnight. He spent two days and two nights piecing together the body parts, but he did not realize that the dead person was the wife that he hated the most.

Seorang wanita yang terluka parah terbaring di kubangan berlumpur dan punggung tangannya ditindih oleh kaki seorang wanita. Hidupnya sudah berada di ujung tanduk. Dia yang telah berlumuran darah, namun matanya masih bersinar, dipenuhi dengan kebencian. Pemandangan kini menjadi sangat menakutkan di malam yang hujan badai yang deras itu. Wanita itu ketakutan setengah mati, tetapi segera memulihkan semangat balas dendamnya. Mereka siap melemparkannya ke dalam lubang, seolah-olah dia hanyalah benda sekali pakai. Namun setiap inci tubuhnya menolak untuk menyerah kepada takdir. Saat dia mulai kehilangan kesadaran, seluruh hidupnya melintas di depan matanya. Dia tidak pernah membayangkan hal ini bisa terjadi, tetapi sekarang dia tahu dan semuanya sudah terlambat. Andai saja dia tidak jatuh cinta pada orang yang salah. Andai saja dia tidak menyia-nyiakan enam tahun hidupnya, dipermalukan di penjara, hanya karena seorang pria yang berjanji akan menikahinya dan membahagiakannya. Andai saja dia tidak memutuskan hubungan dengan keluarganya tanpa ragu-ragu. Jika dia tidak melakukan semua ini, mungkin ayahnya tidak akan pernah mengalami serangan jantung, mungkin ibunya tidak akan mengalami luka bakar. Dan saudaranya tidak akan diracuni, dinyatakan mati otak, dan dikutuk untuk tetap berada dalam kondisi cacat selama sisa hidupnya!

That night, Liam served me my usual evening tea. I trusted him completely—he was my mate, after all, and a respected healer of Thornpack. I shouldn't have. When I woke up the next morning, my head was spinning. The special safe where I kept the morphing inhibitor—the one I'd spent my entire savings to import from Europe for our daughter Isla—was empty. Racing to the healing center, I found Liam celebrating. He was handing out moon-blessed wine, beaming with pride as Natalie's daughter Anna showed off her perfect transformation. My inhibitor had been used on his first love's pup instead of our own daughter. The shock triggered something in my brain. When I collapsed, they diagnosed me with the rare tumor that plagued our kind. Without inhibitors, I couldn't stop Isla's transformation that came early, her six year old body couldn't handle the massive wolf form and the force ripped through her young body. And I, for one, don't even have enough money to keep her in a treatment center. She died in my arms three days later, her little claws drawing blood as the pain overwhelmed her. Until her last breath, she kept asking why Papa hadn't come. Now, in my cold, empty home, with the white porcelain urn containing her ashes on the table, I touch her and decide to sever our partnership.
