Deuxième Chance

The new colleague at my company is a stingy mother. On her first day, she shows up with a huge pile of expired snacks that her son refused to eat and hands them out to everyone. Once we're done, she pulls out her PayPal and says, "These are all imported snacks for my son. I'll need 50 dollars from each of you." During a company team-building event, she refuses to participate, saying she has to go home to take care of her child. The day after, she comes over holding her phone and asks me for money. "I didn't eat with everyone yesterday. Since the company is footing the bill, just hand me the cash equivalent for my meal." Furious, I rejected her request immediately. What I fail to realize is that she would bear a grudge against me over it. One night, her son comes down with a high fever, so she calls me and requests a ride to the hospital using the company car. Once again, I refuse without a second thought. Because of the delay, her son suffers severe cognitive damage. She blames me for everything that happened. In a fit of rage, she ends up running me over with her car. As I open my eyes again, I find myself transported to her first day on the job.

Pendant longtemps, j'ai été la fille parfaite aux yeux de mon père. Celle qui a accepté d'épouser l'Alpha Alexander pour préserver les intérêts de ma meute natale, même s'il refusait de me marquer et répétait que notre mariage n'était rien de plus qu'un contrat. Puis, je suis devenue la Luna parfaite pour mon Alpha. Au fond de moi, j'espérais encore, naïvement, qu'un jour je finirais par gagner son affection, et que nous deviendrions enfin de véritables mari et femme. Tout a basculé le jour où l'on m'a annoncé que ma louve était entrée en dormance. Le médecin m'a prévenue sans détour : dans l'année, Alexander devait me marquer ou me rejeter. Sinon, je mourrais. Pourtant, ni mon mari ni mon père ne se sont souciés de m'aider. C'est dans ce désespoir que j'ai pris une décision. J'ai cessé d'être la fille docile qu'ils voulaient que je sois. Très vite, tout le monde s'est mis à me traiter de folle. Parfait. C'était exactement ce que je voulais : être rejetée, être libre, mettre fin à ce mariage. Ce que je n'avais pas prévu, en revanche, c'est que mon mari, autrefois arrogant, finirait un jour par me supplier de ne pas partir...
