Joy X Anger

Le jour de ma cérémonie avec Vincent Richard, le futur Alpha, la bague en pierre de lune qui m'était destinée, la future Luna, a mystérieusement disparu de l'écrin. À sa place se trouve une languette de canette déjà noircie par l'oxydation. Les applaudissements des invités s'éteignent immédiatement. Ils se tournent tous vers moi. Dans le silence, Joséphine Albert, l'amour d'enfance de Vincent, sort de la foule. Elle lève la main gauche et fait un signe de la main, la bague en pierre de lune sur l'annulaire. Puis, elle sort une bague assortie et la glisse au doigt de Vincent. « Tu dois être terrifiée, Angela, n'est-ce pas ? En fait, c'est moi qui porte la bague en ce moment. Cette languette de canette n'est pas un objet ordinaire, tu sais. Vincent me l'avait donnée quand nous étions encore des enfants. Elle symbolise l'amour éternel qui ne s'éteindra jamais. Maintenant, je te la donne. » Les paroles de Joséphine me transpercent le cœur. Je tremble violemment, comme si mon cœur était coupé en mille morceaux. Cependant, Vincent se contente de rire. « Joséphine a toujours des idées ridicules. Elle plaisante, Angela. Ne prends pas ses paroles au sérieux. » « Oh, je ne le ferai pas. » Je jette la languette de la canette dans le feu de joie, laissant échapper un petit rire sec. « Cette cérémonie est annulée. » Vincent m'attrape la main avant de me serrer dans ses bras. « Arrête de chercher à semer la zizanie, Angela ! Nous avons trouvé l'anneau, n'est-ce pas ? Cette alliance affectera l'avenir de nos meutes ! Ce n'est pas toi qui prends les décisions ici ! » Je me dégage de l'étreinte de Vincent, captant une trace d'odeur écœurante qui flotte autour de lui, une odeur qui n'est pas la mienne. « Il est vrai que la meute du Lac de la Lune va former une alliance avec la meute du Pierre Brun, mais mon futur compagnon n'est pas nécessairement toi. »

"What are you doing?" She asked breathlessly as she placed her hands on the hard surface of his chest. "I don't want you to run this time." He responded. She could feel the deep rumble of his voice through his chest as she slid her hands down an inch over his pectoral muscles. It was an involuntary move but as she felt his chest flex beneath her touch, she couldn't help but feel proud that she caused a reaction in him. His breath fanned over her lips and subconsciously her tongue darted out to wet them. "You don't want me to run?" Juliet asked as she regained her footing, and he slid his hands up to her rib cage slowly. "No." His voice was hard and firm. "No running." "No running from what?" She knew what he was saying but she wanted him to do something about it. It was a burning need racing through her body. Her eyes closed as the tip of his nose brushed against hers. "Me." At that moment her world stopped, and she refused to wait a second longer. She eagerly pressed forward to grab his lips with her own.

All he wanted was a woman he could call home. What happens when she learns his secret? What happens when his secret risks her life?
