J’aurais dû être la future Alpha Femelle de la Meute du Nord, mais mon compagnon, l’Alpha Roi Adam Bertrand, m’a demandé d’y renoncer. Il insistait pour que je reste collée à lui jour et nuit, affirmant qu’il ne survivrait pas sans le contact de sa compagne. Je l’aimais si profondément que j’ai accepté. Pendant sept ans, j’ai été à la fois sa parfaite Luna et une Bêta compétente, renforçant sa meute jour après jour. Je pensais que tout en valait la peine, tout le monde savait qu’Adam m’aimait à en mourir. Comme j’ai du mal à dormir, il a dépensé 10 millions de dollars pour acheter du précieux « thé de la lune » auprès d’une sorcière afin que je puisse enfin trouver le repos. Mais ils ignorent que, chaque nuit, dès que je m’endors, Adam amène Sarah—l’oméga de notre cuisine—dans notre lit. Le même loup qui m’appelait « Petite lune » la prenait juste à côté de mon corps inconscient. Le jour où le médecin m’a annoncé que j’attendais des jumeaux, j’ai tout découvert. J’ai retenu la brûlure dans mon cœur et ma poitrine, et d’un regard fatigué, j’ai murmuré à la Déesse de la Lune : « Déesse, je veux quitter ce monde. » « Es-tu prête à tout abandonner, mon enfant ? » J’ai doucement caressé mon ventre avant d’acquiescer fermement. La déesse a poussé un soupir et a dit : « Dans trois jours, je viendrai te chercher. »
