Meu companheiro destinado, Dexter, tornou-se o Rei Alfa quando seu irmão morreu. Ele herdou a coroa, o poder… e a companheira viúva do irmão, Jenica. Tudo porque eu, uma mestiça, falhei por anos em lhe dar um herdeiro de sangue puro. Ele me disse que precisava marcar Jenica, e a dor quase me despedaçou. Mas ele me segurou nos braços, beijou minhas lágrimas e jurou que seu lobo, seu destino, havia escolhido apenas a mim. Que eu sempre seria sua única e verdadeira Luna. Eu acreditei nele. E, ainda assim, ele passava todas as noites na cama dela. Então, Jenica engravidou. Enquanto a alcateia comemorava, Dexter me expulsou dos aposentos da Luna, tudo para que o filhote dela nascesse envolto na aura lunar mais pura da alcateia. À medida que eu sentia o nosso vínculo se desfazer, fio por fio doloroso, enviei uma última mensagem codificada a uma amiga no mundo humano. [Em quatro dias, me tire daqui.] Naquela noite, eu fiz uma escolha. Meus dias como companheira dele haviam acabado.

My fated mate left the pack, heartbroken, after I rejected him. Seven years later, he returned with his new mate-to-be. By then, the pack doctor had given me my final diagnosis. "Extreme wolf spirit decay." It was irreversible. My wolf would be gone within months. My life was at its end. My fated mate, Alpha Roric, now the most powerful Alpha in North America, smirked when he saw me. I was pale and thin, leaning on my sister for support. "Ayla. Seven years, and you're too weak to even stand straight? When you rejected me, didn't you say that beta was a better match? Where is he now?" His voice dripped with hate. I just tugged on the sleeves of my coat, hiding the way my fingers trembled. A tell-tale sign of my power slipping away. "It's just a cold." Roric's gaze swept over me like ice. "In that case, you should come to my Mating Ceremony with Cressida. I'll save you the best seat." I just smiled. "I can't. I'll be going somewhere far away soon. I'm sorry." Then, pulling my sister with me, I turned and melted into the shadows.

Aku adalah seorang anak yang berasal dari kampung kumuh yang jatuh cinta pada Damon Vindaya, bos mafia yang paling ditakuti di Kota Yana. Selama lima tahun, aku adalah miliknya. Aku menahan sembilan peluru demi dia. Dia akan mencium bekas lukaku saat aku berdarah dan hampir mati untuknya, memelukku erat, dan mengalungkan kalung ratu di leherku. Kemudian, begitu aku pulih, dia akan meniduriku sampai aku kehilangan kesadaran, dengan gairah yang terasa seolah-olah tak akan pernah berakhir. Aku pikir kami akan menghabiskan hidup bersama. Aku pikir dia akan menikahiku. Namun, pada malam kebersamaan kami yang ke-999, dia mengatakan bahwa dia telah bertunangan dengan Bianca, seorang putri mafia dari keluarga rival. Aku menahan air mataku. Dia hanya mencengkeram daguku, mengembuskan asap rokok ke wajahku, lalu tertawa. "Kamu nggak benar-benar berpikir bisa menikah denganku, 'kan, Nora? Mari kita luruskan saja. Kamu itu cuma kuanggap sebagai alat pemuas nafsuku saja, bukan pasangan. Kamu adalah karya seni yang aku koleksi, hewan peliharaan yang aku miliki." Hewan peliharaan. Itu saja yang pernah dia inginkan dariku. Sebagai gantinya, aku pun mengambil ponsel sekali pakai dan mengirim pesan. [ Aku terima tawaranmu. Tiga hari. Keluarkan aku dari Kota Yana. ]

I am soulless, cruel, and have no heart. I do not feel anything when I take their souls. They deserve it as their souls are impure. These dirty humans have souls whereas, I, do not. I cannot contain my jealousy towards them as they can die as they please whereas, I, cannot. I was once a mere mortal who loved a Goddess but I was betrayed and turned into something beautiful but hideous for eternity as my soul left me and lie asleep for eternity somewhere in the dark abyss. My beauty is lethal as I can deceive my prey. I have lived far more than any human can apprehend and I cannot remember how it feels to be a human and this little girl, an innocent beauty, a mere mortal, I should loathe, take her soul, and leave her dead cold. But why am I hesitating? Her innocent blue eyes and her bright smile is illuminating my darkness. I, Endymion, am a soulless immortal, must take her filthy soul with no hesitation and regret...

Des renégats m'ont enlevée alors que je protégeais mon compagnon, l'Alpha Arthur. Je suis revenue trois ans plus tard, pour trouver Arthur accouplé à ma sœur, Caroline. Mon fils, Léo, ne me reconnaissait pas. Pour lui, Caroline était sa vraie mère. Brisée, j'ai forcé Arthur à bannir Caroline avec le soutien des Anciens, en utilisant mes contributions passées comme levier. Mais elle a été tuée dans une meute isolée et faible, empoisonnée. Après sa mort, Léo me détestait pour cela. Arthur ne m'a jamais fait de reproches. Il m'a dit que tout irait bien. Mais quand notre meute a été attaquée à nouveau, il m'a jetée à nos ennemis sans hésiter, m'a laissée mourir. Alors que j'agonisais, je l'ai entendu grogner en serrant les dents. « Si tu n'étais pas revenue, Caroline aurait été ma compagne pour la vie ! » Mon cœur s'est transformé en cendres. Puis, j'ai ouvert les yeux. J'étais de retour, au jour de mon retour après trois ans d'absence. Cette fois, je regardais Arthur qui protégeait Caroline, et Léo qui s'accrochait à elle. « Je romps notre lien de compagnon. A partir de ce jour, j'en ai fini avec vous tous. »

Juste avant la cérémonie d'accouplement, mon compagnon, Alpha Claude, m'a dit qu'il devait marquer temporairement une Oméga de notre meute, Fabienne. Il a prétendu qu'elle avait la maladie de la lune et qu'elle mourrait s'il ne la marquait pas. Je me suis disputée avec lui à ce sujet, mais le lendemain, il a installé Fabienne dans le penthouse de la Maison de la Meute. C'était la suite destinée à la future Luna. Ma suite. Pour me calmer, il s'est même mis à genoux, les yeux rougis, et m'a promis : « Quand elle sera en sécurité, j'enlèverai la marque. Tu resteras ma seule Luna. » Mais ensuite, Fabienne m'a retrouvée, un rapport médical à la main. Elle était enceinte de six semaines. Ils avaient déjà fait leur cérémonie de marquage bien avant que Claude ne vienne me voir. Mon cœur s'est brisé en cendres. Mon stylo a creusé le calendrier, gravant un X vicieux sur la date qui était censée être celle de notre cérémonie d'accouplement. Puis j'ai ouvert mon ordinateur portable et répondu à l'e-mail de la Guilde Européenne des Guérisseurs du Laurier. « J'accepte votre invitation, je pars le jour de la cérémonie d'accouplement. »
