우리 엄마는 나 때문에 화병으로 돌아가셨다. 내가 주인공이 돼야 할 결혼식의 신부가 박형식의 파트너로 바뀐 순간 엄마는 숨이 멎어 들었고 그렇게 내 결혼식은 엄마의 장례식이 되어버렸다. 박형식은 그럼에도 결혼식을 강행했고 아예 나더러 강지연 손에 반지를 끼워주라고 했다. “얼른 끼워줘, 식 끝나면 내가 다 설명할게.” 나는 그런 박형식을 무시하며 엄마의 시체를 안고 호텔을 나왔다. 저녁 8시가 되자 신부가 바뀐 결혼식도 원만히 끝났는지 강지연이 인스타에 피드를 하나 올렸는데 거기에 좋아요가 수십만 개나 달려있었다. “오늘 드디어 원하던 사람과 결혼했어요, 다들 와주셔서 너무 고맙고 또 본인 주제를 알고 알아서 비켜주신 그분한테도 고맙네요.” “사랑받을 자격이 없는 사람은 사랑해주지 말아야지.” 그 피드 아래에 달린 박형식의 댓글을 본 나는 차디찬 영안실에서 둘을 위해 '좋아요'를 눌러주며 “오래도록 행복하세요.”라는 댓글을 달았다. 그리고는 엄마의 유골함을 안고 짐을 정리하러 집으로 돌아갔는데 그곳에서 하필 내가 산 소파에 앉아 서로를 부둥켜안고 키스를 하고 있는 박형식과 강지연을 보게 되었다.

As a werewolf who grew up as a rogue, Katia did not follow any rules, nor even know what the law was. She doesn't even know that her mate exists. So when she unexpectedly met the other half of her soul, Alpha Reui, the alpha of the Exodus pack, Katia was baffled and shocked. She was given the option of attending a werewolf university or becoming fully mated with the alpha and bearing his pup. Katia, who was always impulsive and naive, thought that attending the school would get her away from the alpha's eyes and possessiveness. Or so she thought. For 6 years, Alpha Reui patiently waited for his mate since he had shifted. He was loyal and untouched for her. So to let her go easily is the last thing he'd do. And Katia knew she couldn't do anything to stop him from his craziness, so she just let him be. Unsure of her new life as a student of the strange school for werewolves, Katia was left with no choice but to ask the alpha's help, much to the latter's delight. Katia never thought things would turn pretty much contrary to what she expected it to be. She was a rogue, unwanted, and a monster. She has no family at all. Or that's what she thought. As she unravels the secrets and mysteries of her forgotten past, Katia soon realizes that she is nothing like what people describe her to be. As she flipped through the folded chapter of her life, Katia didn't expect to find love and light in the midst of her dark, chaotic life. And for the very first time, Katia started trusting someone to take care of her heart. But... Was it really worth it? Was it really worth the risk?
