Majunga. Un port bercé par le soleil, la poussière… et les secrets. Depuis l’âge de six ans, Noham vit avec une famille pauvre mais aimante qui l’a sauvé alors qu’il était laissé pour mort au bord d’une route. Il n’a aucun souvenir de sa vie d’avant, juste une cicatrice étrange sur l’omoplate et des cauchemars qui le hantent certaines nuits. Des rêves de forêts, de sang… et de hurlements sous la lune. À 12 ans, il fait tout ce qu’il peut pour aider sa mère adoptive, gravement malade, et son père exténué. Un jour, alors qu’il travaille sur le port, un homme l’aborde. Cet étranger ne peut détacher ses yeux de lui. Comme s’il avait retrouvé quelque chose qu’il croyait perdu. Cet homme lui propose de l’aider. D’abord méfiant, Noham finit par accepter, pour sauver sa famille. Ce qu’il ignore, c’est qu’il vient de rouvrir les portes d’un passé effacé… et que son sang appartient à un monde qui dépasse l’imagination. Une prophétie oubliée. Une lignée disparue. Une guerre entre meutes. Noham ne le sait pas encore, mais il est né Alpha.

Ralantsoa Andriamifidy a tout sacrifié pour sa carrière. À 34 ans, elle est cadre dirigeante dans l’une des plus grosses entreprises logistiques de Tamatave. Brillante, rigoureuse, et intransigeante, elle fait peur autant qu’elle impressionne. Ses collègues la surnomment “le Dragon du 5e étage”, et personne ne s’attarde à percer la carapace de celle qui vit pour l’efficacité et méprise les bavardages. Mais l’ordre parfait qu’elle a instauré s’écroule doucement avec l’arrivée de Ny Aina Andrianisa, le nouveau directeur du département, transféré depuis Tananarive. Lui, c’est le soleil. Charismatique, chaleureux, un mot gentil pour tout le monde. Il serre des mains, rit aux éclats, et transforme les réunions en cafés-débats. Et surtout : il est bon. Très bon. Trop bon. Entre eux, c’est un duel silencieux. Une guerre de principes, de regards, de silences lourds et de remarques feutrées. Ils sont tout ce que l’autre déteste. Pourtant, quelque chose crépite sous les apparences. Et si cette tension cachait autre chose que de l’agacement ? Dans un décor tropical entre mer et béton, dans un monde où les apparences sont tout, Ralantsoa et Ny Aina vont devoir choisir entre le contrôle… et le cœur.

VANESSA: ~"You will marry him!" Dad thundered, his veins bulging and his sickly pallor only enhancing how close to death's door he was. I was more worried about his health than this insane idea he was spouting, but. "This is the 21st century! You can't force to marry anyone! That's preposterous!"
