Voici la version simplifiée du texte, conservant l'intensité et l'essentiel de la trame : J'étais enceinte de neuf mois quand le Conseil des Loups a envoyé le rapport de ressources de mon compagnon. Pendant deux ans, mon mari, l'Alpha de la meute, avait secrètement fourni territoire, protection et provisions à la même louve — sans interruption. La première aide datait d'il y a deux ans : le mois où j'avais perdu mon premier enfant. Une notification est apparue : un message de cette louve. « Tu as vu le rapport, n'est-ce pas ? » Je n'ai pas répondu, mais j'ai ouvert son fil. La publication la plus ancienne, datée du 21 avril de cette année-là, montrait une louve appuyée contre un Alpha. Son visage était hors champ, mais la marque d'Alpha sur son épaule — celle de mon mari — était claire. La légende : « Merci de m'avoir choisie la nuit de ma majorité. » Cette nuit-là, je gisais en sang dans la salle de soins, en train de perdre notre petit. Il m'avait dit qu'il était en déplacement pour la meute. Je continue à faire défiler : elle s'entraînait dans les zones réservées aux Alphas, utilisait les ressources de la Luna, était protégée comme si elle était déjà à sa place. Chaque publication rappelait qu'il l'avait choisie. En haut de son fil, un rapport médical : elle était enceinte de l'enfant de l'Alpha. J'ai posé mon appareil et retourné dans notre chambre. Puis elle m'a envoyé photos et vidéos — pour exhiber que l'amour dont je fus fière était pourri jusqu'à l'os. Je me suis assise lentement, mon petit remuant en moi, une douleur au cœur. C'est alors que j'ai compris : il m'avait trahie, entièrement. Je ne veux pas cet amour. Je ne resterai pas dans cette meute. Quand mon petit naîtra, je partirai avec lui, l'héritier de l'Alpha. Qu'il fouille chaque territoire, qu'il mette la meute à feu et à sang dans le regret — il ne nous trouvera jamais.
