Depois que o irmão mais velho de Leo Carter morreu, a mãe dele propôs que ele se casasse com Ariel Sullivan, a viúva grávida do falecido. Leo recusou. — Fawn é a minha vida. — A voz dele soou fria, e o ar ao redor pareceu mais denso. — Eu preferia abrir mão de herdar o posto do meu irmão como Don a trair a minha esposa. Eu fiquei profundamente comovida com aquela devoção… até o dia em que, por acaso, eu ouvi uma conversa entre Leo e a mãe dele. — A criança na barriga de Ariel é claramente sua. — A mãe dele disparou, cortante. — Então por que você não vai se casar com ela? Leo soltou o ar devagar, e uma nuvem de fumaça escapou. O olhar dele se perdeu em algum ponto distante, indecifrável, como se nada ali o atingisse por completo. — Eu prometi à Ariel que deixaria meu irmão com um herdeiro. — A calma dele foi quase irritante, calculada demais. — Mas isso fica entre nós. Se a Fawn descobrir um dia… eu estou morto. A expressão da mãe dele escureceu, como se a paciência tivesse se partido. — E daí se ela descobrir? Ela nem pode ter filhos. — A voz dela veio carregada de desprezo. — Você vai acabar com a linhagem da família por causa dela? — Se ela descobrir, ela vai me deixar. — A frieza de Leo cortou como lâmina, perigosa. — E eu não sobrevivo sem ela. Se você quer um neto, então cale a boca. Eu me afastei cambaleando, como se tivesse levado um golpe. O sangue nas minhas veias foi esfriando aos poucos, até virar gelo. Leo me conhecia melhor do que qualquer um; ele sabia que, no meu mundo, amor não tolerava traição. Então, no instante em que ele me traiu, eu tomei a minha decisão. Eu iria embora.

The Rossi mafia family followed an ancestral rule. Before marriage, the heir received one chance each year to draw lots. Drawing a fortunate lot meant he could choose his own spouse and avoid an arranged marriage. Dante Rossi drew an unfortunate lot for five consecutive years, and I, who had been dating him for seven years, never managed to marry him. This year marked the sixth year. I overheard his conversation with Marco Valentino, the Underboss. "Mr. Rossi, you drew a fortunate lot again." Dante's voice carried an unprecedented coldness. "Same as always, switch it to an unfortunate lot." Marco hesitated, then tried to persuade him. "Mr. Rossi, you've switched it for five years straight. Aren't you worried Celia will leave? Celia's the most beautiful woman in Nopales. Half the men in the city are chasing her." Dante said with absolute certainty, "She won't. Celia loves me too much. She won't marry anyone else. "Years ago, Livia's father died saving me. His dying wish was for me to stay by her side for five years. After this year ends, I'll give Celia a grand wedding as compensation." My last shred of hope died after I heard those words. Dante probably did not know that the Rossi family had one final ancestral rule. If the heir failed to draw a fortunate lot six times, he would lose the right to choose his own marriage. Moreover, I would soon be marrying someone else.

At our wedding, my wife's assistant "accidentally" uploaded the wrong photo. The big screen was supposed to display our wedding portraits. Instead, it was a picture of my wife and him in full wedding attire. Their fingers were laced together, their eyes locked in a soft, intimate gaze, looking every bit like a blissfully happy couple. The entire venue erupted in shocked whispers. The assistant froze in shock, acting like he had no idea why he was in the photo. He started panicking, asking if we should just postpone the ceremony. My wife, however, stayed surprisingly calm. She whispered her solution, “Everyone’s here. Postponing now would be humiliating and, honestly, a bad omen. Beside, most people here don’t even know what the groom looks like. Why don’t we just let him stand in for you?” Our friends were dumbfounded. They all thought I’d explode in anger and jealousy after hearing something so outrageous. Instead, I nodded, saying it was actually a great idea. Seeing how composed I remained, my wife looked pleased with herself. She told me that since we were legally married anyway, she’d make it up to me later with another ceremony. However, she seemed to have forgotten one thing: she had just signed the divorce papers.

She was rejected before hundreds, her bond twisted into agony, her worth declared worthless. Nyra Vale fled into forbidden lands, and the world believed she died. But the Moon had other plans. Five years later, she returns as the Moonshadow, powerful, untouchable, and carrying the stolen legacy of every sacrificed omega. Kael Draven, the alpha who destroyed her, now rules with iron control, burying his regret beneath duty. Their corrupted bond still burns between them, violent and unbreakable, dragging them into a dangerous game of power, secrets, and proximity that neither can escape. As ancient prophecies unravel and a ruthless enemy moves to claim her as a weapon, Nyra must choose: become the monster the world expects, or rewrite fate itself. Kael will sacrifice everything to stand beside her, but after five years of surviving alone, can she trust the man who once chose tradition over her heart? When the blood moon rises, will love be enough to break a curse forged in sacrifice, or will history repeat itself in blood and ash?

At the wedding, just as I was about to exchange rings with my fiancée, her conniving boyfriend intentionally pushed his son toward her. Right in front of everyone, the boy looked up with teary eyes and asked, "Mom, why are you marrying this man? Don't you want me and Dad anymore?" My fiancée, who never lied, smiled, took the child's hand, and said, "I was only pretending with this man earlier. Now I am going to marry your father." The banquet hall buzzed with whispers. Everyone expected me to get jealous and blow up. Instead, I said the child came first and calmly handed the ring to the boyfriend sitting below the stage. Seeing how cooperative I was, my fiancée grinned and promised she would give me a healthy baby boy someday as a thank you. However, she seemed to have forgotten that we had not officially tied the knot yet. Truth be told, I had no intention of ever doing so.
