Guided Reading Level G

Once, I was their princess. And then Kylee showed up. Having been in the foster system the majority of her childhood, my parents treated her like a charity case and gave her everything. At 13 years old, Kylee was adopted. Then the "accidents" started happening. Kylee would be walking past me and would suddenly fall over. "Oh, Mom! Sarah didn't mean it! Shes just having a hard time adjusting to her new sister!" Eventually, her little accusations turned into straight out bullying and, well, I'm sure you can figure out the rest. I did my best to ignore Kylee. I got a job as early as the law would allow. I saved my money. I got the best grades in school, becoming the class valedictorian. My parents didn't notice, though. They were too busy playing into Kylee's 5-year-long pity party. Don't worry, though. Soon I'll be gone to Harvard and you can have the happy family you wanted. I don't need you, anyways.

After serving three years for a crime I didn't commit, I discovered the devastating truth on my release day: Chase Grayson, my husband, had divorced and betrayed me, marrying my younger sister. Worse still, he sold me to Axel Blackwood, a powerful and feared stranger. Heartbroken and trapped in Axel's world of secrets and lies, I faced a new prison that threatened to consume me.

Je suis enfermée dans le cellier par mes frères triplets Alphas après que ma belle-sœur, Elsa, m'ait accusée d'avoir tué sa louve en lui donnant un gâteau aux amandes. La sortie est scellée par des chaînes en argent et ma louve hurle et les supplie de me relâcher. Mais mes trois frères Alphas refusent. L'Alpha Kane, le plus âgé, grogne, « louve possédée ! Tu sais bien qu'elle est allergique aux noix, et tu as fait exprès de lui donner un gâteau aux amandes pour l'étouffer ! Tu ne sais pas que cela pourrait endommager sa louve de façon fatale ? Tu dois rester ici et réfléchir à ce que tu as fait ! » L'Alpha Kelvin, le second, et l'Alpha Karl, le troisième, se moquent, « quelle louve pitoyable que tu es ! Tu trouves encore des excuses au lieu d'avouer la vérité. Reste ici et souffre autant que tu le mérites ! » Après ça, ils se transforment et amènent leur petite Elsa tremblante à l'infirmerie des loups. Pendant ce temps, j'arrive à peine à respirer à cause de l'air empli de poussière d'argent. Ma louve hurle dans l'agonie, mais c'est inutile. Alors je meurs dans cet endroit. C'est seulement trois jours plus tard, après qu'ils aient ramené Elsa de l'infirmerie, que mon existence traverse à nouveau leurs esprits. Mais ils ne savent pas que je suis déjà morte dans ce cellier remplit de poussière d'argent.

Pendant les sept années où j'ai été liée à Gérard, mon compagnon, l'héritier de l'Alpha, il a couché avec toutes les amies qui m'entouraient. J'ai fait comme si je n'avais rien vu, j'ai continué à remplir mes devoirs de la future Luna. Jusqu'au jour où j'ai accouché, sa nouvelle maîtresse a conduit des loups sauvages tout droit à m'attaquer. Leurs griffes ont transpercé mon ventre avec une précision cruelle, ma mère a même été tuée par eux alors qu'elle tentait de me sauver. Dans ce moment de désespoir, j'ai utilisé le lien mental pour contacter Gérard et l'ai supplié de nous sauver. « Alina, quand as-tu appris à faire ces tours ? Ne pense pas que ton jeu pathétique m'amènera à m'intéresser à toi. » Après cela, il a coupé le lien mental. Mais il a envoyé une voiture chercher sa nouvelle maîtresse. Lorsque la patrouille m'a trouvée et m'a emmenée à l'hôpital, le bébé dans mon ventre avait été sorti à coups de griffes. Ma mère est morte elle aussi, le poison des loups sauvages s'est répandu dans ses blessures jusqu'à ce que son corps s'effondre. Quand je me suis réveillée, j'ai regardé, hébétée, le grand-père de Gérard, l'actuel Alpha de la meute d'Ombre de Lune. « Laisse-moi partir », ai-je dit froidement, « j'ai payé de ma vie tout ce que je devais à votre meute. »
