L'année de mes dix-huit ans, le Haut-Roi a convoqué les héritiers des quatre grands clans, vampires, loups-garous, dragons et sirènes, et a étalé leurs portraits devant moi, m'ordonnant d'en choisir un pour une alliance matrimoniale. Sans hésitation, j'ai pointé du doigt le plus obscur d'entre eux : Mathéo Dimont, un loup-garou des terres frontalières. La cour a retenu son souffle, car tous savaient que mon cœur avait longtemps appartenu à Iris, l'Alpha au sang royal le plus pur. Pendant sept ans, je l'avais suivi comme un chien fidèle, supportant son indifférence, déclarant publiquement mon amour, allant jusqu'à sceller un pacte avec mon propre sang pour l'épouser. Dans ma vie précédente, j'avais obtenu ce mariage. Et grâce à moi, il avait hérité des ressources du Haut-Roi, devenant le souverain des quatre clans. Mais il m'avait trahie en marquant secrètement Ruby, la fille adoptive de mes parents. Furieux, ceux-ci l'ont envoyée étudier dans une meute lointaine. À partir de ce jour, Iris me haïssait viscéralement. Ses maîtresses s'étaient multipliées, chacune ressemblant étrangement à ma sœur adoptive. Il les laissait m'humilier en public, transformant peu à peu ma position de reine en sinistre farce. La dépression m'avait rongée. Je ne maintenais ma forme de louve qu'à coup d'inhibiteurs. Jusqu'au jour où il avait remplacé lui-même mes médicaments par un poison lent. J'étais morte dans une grotte glacée, portant en moi notre enfant jamais né. Revenue à la vie, j'avais perdu mes illusions. Quand le Haut-Roi m'a fait à nouveau choisir, mon doigt s'est posé sur Mathéo. J'ai cru échapper au cauchemar... jusqu'à ce qu'Iris perde la raison en apprenant nos fiançailles...
