Impian Chang An

Sie wurde in der Nacht geboren, in der ihre Mutter starb – und sie ließen sie das nie vergessen. Achtzehn Jahre lang hat Ivory Ashwood am Rande des Rudels ihres Vaters gelebt: unerwünscht, ungewandelt und mit violetten Augen, die sie hinter Kontaktlinsen versteckt, weil das letzte Mal, als jemand ihre echte Augenfarbe sah, sie als verflucht bezeichneten – und es ernst meinten. Sie hat gelernt, unsichtbar zu sein. Sie hat gelernt, dass Überleben und Leben zwei sehr unterschiedliche Dinge sind und dass sie bisher nur eines davon getan hat. An ihrem achtzehnten Geburtstag verkauft ihr Vater sie, um eine Schuld zu begleichen. Doch die Nacht verläuft nicht so, wie irgendjemand geplant hatte. Denn Lycan-König Zion Valdris trifft in Silverstone ein, wirft einen Blick auf Ivory über eine belebte Lichtung hinweg – und spürt, wie drei Jahre anhaltender Schmerz aus seiner Brust verschwinden. Er kauft ihren Vertrag noch vor Mitternacht. Ivory hat ihr ganzes Leben lang Monster überlebt. Sie ist nicht beeindruckt von mächtigen Männern. Sie wird sich nicht in einen König verlieben, nur weil das Universum es so bestimmt. Das sagt sie ihm direkt in der ersten Nacht, stehend in einem weingetränkten Kleid, das Kinn erhoben. Er hört jedes Wort. Dann gibt er ihr ein Zimmer mit einer Tür, die sich von innen verriegeln lässt, und geht. Sie steht lange da, die Hand auf dem Schloss, und versucht herauszufinden, was sie mit einem Mann anfangen soll, der gibt, statt zu nehmen. Sie weiß, wie man mit Grausamkeit umgeht. Sie weiß nicht, was sie mit Geduld anfangen soll. Und etwas erwacht in ihr – etwas Älteres als das Gefährtenband, älter als die Rudelgesetze, älter als die Mondgöttin selbst. Wenn es seine Augen vollständig öffnet, wird nichts in Aeloria je wieder so sein wie zuvor. Am allerwenigsten sie selbst.

At our wedding, Toby Webb, the impoverished student my fiancee, Elvira Britton, has been sponsoring, barges into the venue while wailing at the top of his lungs. "Elvira, a wasp has stung me down there! Does this mean I won't be able to…" Elvira doesn't hesitate to ditch all the guests and me in favor of whisking Toby away. I quickly grab her wrist and suggest to her that we should finish the ceremony first before finding a doctor to save Toby. But she reacts by shoving me to the floor instead with an enraged look on her face. "Wallace Cochran, if you truly loved me, you wouldn't stop me at this time!" After that, she quickly takes Toby to the lounge in the wedding venue. By the time I arrive at the lounge, I witness Elvira straddling Toby. The very same woman, who had once promised me that she'd preserve her virginity for our wedding night, can be seen glaring at me angrily. "Toby's condition is very severe, you know! How am I supposed to sit by and watch him suffer? It's just virginity, isn't it? Since you want it that badly, I can just get myself repaired and let you try again, can't I?"

That winter, the Silver Moon Pack holds its annual ski hunt. An avalanche strikes without warning, and the three of us are trapped in a lift pod. There's only one thermal suit left. My mate, Ryan Mercer, gives the thermal suit to me. I survive, but his childhood sweetheart, Eve Hurst, is buried forever beneath the endless white of the mountain. No body is ever found. However, he gazes at me with devotion and says, "Celine Bartlett, you are the love of my life." I soak in those words, believing them. But I have no idea this is the beginning of my nightmare. For the next five years, he speaks to me only with cruelty. "You killed Eve. You're a murderer!" He locks me in the basement and whips me with lashes soaked in wolfsbane. Then, he pretends to show pity and feeds me with a silver fork. When I refuse, he stabs me with silver nails across my legs, carving deep red lines into my skin. "This is what you owe her, and you will repay it!" When I ask for a reject, he stabs a silver dagger into my chest, dragging me into death with him. When I open my eyes, I find myself back on the day of the avalanche. This time, I hand the survival gear to Eve without hesitation. This time, I owe her nothing. And now, I want to see whether they will get their happy ending without me around.
