Buried deep in the Aster estate was the Heartwood—ancient, sacred, mine. Told my husband, Julian Aster—back when he actually listened—that if it ever fell, I'd die with it. At first, he freaked out.

Is that mayo on your mouth? Relax—it's a tree. I'll buy you a forest if you want." Overnight, my hair turned gray. Skin cracked. Eyes dulled. Still, I dragged myself to his grandmother, Henrietta. "I kept your family safe for two hundred years. That's why the Asters thrived. But the Heartwood's gone. Debt's paid. One day left. Whatever happens next? Not my problem."

The day Alpha Marcus and I marked each other, his first love, Cecilia, threw herself off a cliff into a ravine overgrown with wolfsbane. The pack searched for three full days and nights before they found her, barely clinging to life. She was once the most spirited she-wolf in our pack, but the fall cost her a leg and the ability to bear pups. I grieved for the beautiful life that had been ruined, and I blamed myself for not seeing how fragile she'd become. Marcus comforted me gently. "Elena, this wasn't your fault. Cecilia made her own choice. You did everything you could. Don't beat yourself up." Later, not long after our pup, Rylan, turned five, a sudden illness tore through him, and he died in my arms. Night after night, Marcus held me, wiping away my tears. "Don't be sad, Elena," he would murmur. "We'll have other children." I had always believed my mate was the most considerate, most protective Alpha in the entire world. Until the day I overheard him speaking with his Beta, Adrin. "Alpha, the dosage of wolfsbane we gave Rylan was perfect—just as you ordered. It looked like a genetic defect. No one will ever suspect." "It's been so long. Don't you think it's time to forgive the Luna?" "What's one pup compared to what Cecilia lost? She lost a leg, her future as a mother. Everything."

An unserem fünften Hochzeitstag schenkte mir Alpha Liam nichts weiter als eine schlichte Schutzmarkierung des Rudels. Noch in derselben Nacht feierte er die Bindungszeremonie mit seiner ersten Liebe, der Wölfin Seraphina. Ich wollte das nicht hinnehmen. Er warf mir vor, unvernünftig zu sein. „Meine Bindung mit Seraphina gilt der Zukunft des Rudels, nicht meinen Gefühlen für sie.“ „Du bist nur ein Mensch. Sollte die Rudelmarkierung dir nicht genügen? Das war deine letzte Bewährungsprobe, Elena, die du nicht bestanden hast.“ Ich drehte mich um und ging. Daraufhin wandte er sich Seraphina zu und machte ihr einen Heiratsantrag. ... Fünf Jahre später trafen wir uns wieder in einem exklusiven Hotel, das vom Alpha-Rat ausgewählt worden war. Sein Rudel stand kurz vor dem Aufstieg zur Elite. Seraphina an seiner Seite trug ein seidenes Gewand in Mondscheinfarbe. Als er mich erblickte, wie ich sandbedeckt knöcheltief im Zierbrunnen des Hotels stand, runzelte er die Stirn. „Elena“, spottete er. „meinen Schutz hast du früher verachtet. Und jetzt sieh dich an. Ich wette, du findest kein einziges Rudel in dieser Stadt, das bereit wäre, einen Menschen aufzunehmen.“ „Und denk bloß nicht, dieses erbärmliche Schauspiel würde mich dazu bringen, dich wieder aufzunehmen.“ Ich beachtete ihn nicht. Der kostbare Mondstein meines Welpen, ein Geschenk, das es am Strand gefunden hatte, war in den Brunnen gefallen. Der Kleine war außer sich, und ich musste sein wertvolles Amulett finden.
