Fra Luca Pacioli

Le jour de l'anniversaire de notre union, mes jambes se sont enroulées autour de mon Alpha, Adrian, alors que nous avons partagé un baiser profond. Mes doigts ont effleuré la poche cachée de ma robe de soie, ma main s'étant resserrée autour du test de grossesse que j'y avais dissimulé. J'ai senti le léger battement d'une nouvelle vie en moi, ayant prévu de lui offrir cette surprise comme la conclusion parfaite de notre soirée. À ce moment-là, le Bêta d'Adrian, Ethan, a parlé d'un ton bas et taquin, utilisant l'Ancienne Langue. « Alpha, cette petite belle-sœur à toi… la louve récemment maturée, Zoé. Quel goût avait-elle ? » Le rire bas et suggestif d'Adrian a atteint mes oreilles, discret mais terriblement clair. Il a répondu dans la même langue ancienne. « Tu connais un piment fraîchement mûr ? Épicé, avec un vrai coup de fouet. » Sa paume caressait encore ma taille, mais son regard s'est détourné ailleurs. « Garde-le juste pour toi. Si ma Luna découvre, tout est fini. » Les autres Bêtas ont laissé échapper des rires complices, levant leurs verres dans une promesse silencieuse de garder ce secret. Mais un frisson m'a parcourue, et ma louve intérieure s'est figée, comme si elle était morte. Adrian ne savait pas que j'avais étudié l'Ancienne Langue pour mes recherches sur le traumatisme des loups-garous. J'avais compris chaque mot. J'ai retenu mes larmes, m'étant forcée à paraître impassible, maintenant la contenance attendue d'une Luna. Au lieu de l'affronter, j'ai envoyé un message magiquement protégé au doyen Slone de l'Association des Guérisseurs de Loups-Garous, acceptant l'invitation qu'elle m'avait adressée. Trois jours plus tard, j'ai rejoint un programme sécurisé de réhabilitation pour loups-garous en tant que nouvelle Guérisseuse en Chef et j'ai disparu à jamais du monde d'Adrian.

Ich war im vierten Monat mit dem Erben des Alphas schwanger, als meine beste Freundin Ariana mich mit voller Wucht zu Boden stieß. Sie nannte es einen „Unfall“. Ich verlor meinen Welpen. Mein Bruder Liam versuchte, sie vor den Ältesten des Rudels zu überführen. Doch er wurde des Verrats bezichtigt, ihm wurde der Beta-Titel aberkannt, und man warf ihn in die Rudelkerker. Ich rannte zu meinem Gefährten, Alpha Byron, und flehte ihn um Hilfe an. Er hielt mich fest und schwor, er würde Liam retten. Am nächsten Tag fand ich Liam in den Verliesen – in Silber gekettet, kaum noch am Leben. Mit gebrochenem Herzen suchte ich Byron erneut auf, verzweifelt nach einem Weg, Liams Unschuld zu beweisen. Dabei hörte ich zufällig, wie er mit seinem engsten Vertrauten sprach. „Alpha, wenn die Luna herausfindet, dass Sie zugelassen haben, dass man Liam hereingelegt hat … wird sie Sie hassen.“ Byrons Stimme war von Erschöpfung und unterdrücktem Schmerz durchzogen. „Ich weiß, wie sie ist. Das war der einzige Weg, sie dazu zu bringen, Ariana bei der Blutmond-Zeremonie zu verzeihen. Ariana hat mir das Leben gerettet. Ich werde nicht zulassen, dass sie daran zerbricht.” Er hielt inne, seine Stimme nun vollkommen kalt. „Was Sandra angeht … ich werde es mehr als wiedergutmachen. Sie darf niemals die Wahrheit erfahren. Niemals. Im Moment muss sie nur … gehorchen.“ Der Gefährte, dem ich mein Leben anvertraut hatte … Er hatte meine Familie den Wölfen zum Fraß vorgeworfen. Nur um die Frau zu schützen, die unser Kind getötet hatte. Mein Herz zerbrach. Zitternd vor einer Wut, wie ich sie nie zuvor gespürt hatte, rief ich den einen Menschen an, mit dem ich seit sieben Jahren kein Wort gesprochen hatte: meinen Vater, Alpha Caden. „Vater, ich nehme das strategische Bündnis an. Die Ehe, die du immer wolltest. Aber unter einer Bedingung. Ich brauche deine Hilfe … um das Blackwood-Rudel dem Erdboden gleichzumachen.“

El día que se suponía que iba a ser mi boda, la novia no era yo. La ceremonia que había esperado durante cinco años se convirtió en una broma cuando Valentina, mi hermana, caminó por el pasillo de mármol con un vestido de novia blanco. Su brazo estaba entrelazado con el de Luca, el hombre que se suponía que me estaría esperando en el altar. —Lo siento, Bianca —dijo suavemente—. Pero ya no eres la novia hoy. Luego se tocó el estómago; sus ojos brillaban de triunfo. —Estoy embarazada del hijo de Don Romano. Sus palabras detonaron dentro de mi cabeza, y el mundo entero se quedó en silencio. Como si temiera que no le creyera, levantó algo brillante hacia la luz. Una imagen de ultrasonido en blanco y negro. Se leía claramente: [Edad gestacional —12 semanas.] Mis ojos ardieron, las lágrimas escocieron mientras me giraba hacia Luca, buscando desesperadamente cualquier cosa. Una negación, una explicación, o un arrepentimiento. En cambio, él solo suspiró, agotado y resignado. —Bianca, lo siento —dijo con impotencia—. A Valentina no le queda mucho tiempo. Esta boda... era su último deseo. Te lo compensaré —añadió—. Podemos tener otra boda más tarde. Mi padre, Moretti, se paró detrás de él, con la misma expresión severa que había usado toda mi vida. Nunca lo he visto sonreírme, ni siquiera una vez. —Bianca —dijo bruscamente—, tu hermana se está muriendo. Déjala tener esto. Mi hermano asintió sin decir una sola palabra, como si eso fuera suficiente para ser una respuesta sólida. Toda mi vida, la habían elegido a ella, sus lágrimas, sus caprichos y sus necesidades, por encima de las mías. Hoy no era diferente. Algo dentro de mí se rompió silenciosamente. Bien. Si nadie en esta familia se preocupa por mí, me iré.
