The wheat has yet to ripen when my Grandma, Julia Simmon, appears to me in a dream. "There will be a plague of locusts in the autumn. Sell off the produce and raise fish to ensure the family has income." I, Vanessa West, convince my parents to harvest the wheat for grain and feed before irrigating the fields to raise fish. Then, a severe drought strikes and the fish die, leaving my family drowning in debt. We're at a loss to know what to do. Then, Grandma appears in my dreams again. "There are gold bars buried under the oak tree on the hill at our old home. Selling them will sort out our debts and leave you with money to spare." After telling my father, Alan West, this, he digs up a whole crate of white powder. The police happen to be staking out the area. They have him arrested, thinking that he means to buy the drugs. For the amount he gets caught with, he faces life imprisonment. My mother, Hannah Smith, is unable to bear the sight of this and faints on the spot. Again, Grandma appears to me in a dream and offers guidance. "Dr. Hank Vance at Central Hospital can cure her. If you don't hurry, she'll be in danger!" Desperate to save my mother, I threaten Dr. Vance with my life, and he agrees to operate on her. Then, my boyfriend gets into a car accident and urgently needs treatment. However, he succumbs to his injuries due to my asking for Dr. Vance. In the meantime, Mom doesn't receive treatment in time. As she is dying, Mom weeps, asking me why I ruined the entire family. Then, she passes away on the operating table. My boyfriend's parents think I am responsible for their son's death, and they stab me 18 times. While being rushed to the emergency room, I see Grandma again. However, she is grinning maliciously as she plunges a knife into my heart, mimicking the stabs I got from real life and giving me a ruptured heart. I died without understanding why Grandma's appearances led to my family's end. I open my eyes and find out that I've returned to the day Grandma told me to sell our crops.

Ich hatte zugestimmt, mit Lucien die Zentrale Wolfsakademie zu verlassen. Weil er behauptet hatte, dort schikaniert zu werden. Mit achtzehn noch immer ohne Erwachen war er an einer Akademie, an der Blutlinie und Stärke über allem standen, von Anfang an ein Außenseiter. Also flehte er mich an, mit ihm zu gehen und an eine gewöhnlichere Schule zu wechseln, an der Herkunft nicht über das ganze Leben entschied. Einen Tag bevor wir die Versetzung endgültig festmachen wollten, suchte ich ihn auf. Kaum stand ich vor der Tür, hörte ich drinnen Stimmen. Einer seiner Beta-Gefährten lachte spöttisch auf. „Respekt, Lucien. Du hast ihr echt vorgespielt, dass man dich an der Zentralen Akademie schikaniert, nur damit sie für dich von dort verschwindet.“ Eine andere Stimme klang zögernd. „Ihr seid schließlich zusammen aufgewachsen. Willst du sie wirklich einfach so gehen lassen?“ Lucien antwortete ohne zu zögern. Seine Stimme klang gelassen, beinahe amüsiert. „Sie geht ja nicht sonst wohin. Ihr wird schon nichts passieren.“ Dann wurde seine Stimme kälter. „Seit wir Kinder sind, hängt sie an mir wie ein Schatten. Langsam ging sie mir auf die Nerven. So werde ich sie auf einmal los. Ist doch praktisch.“ Ich stürmte nicht hinein, um ihn zur Rede zu stellen. Ich drehte mich einfach um und ging. Zurück in meinem Zimmer öffnete ich den Versetzungsantrag noch einmal. Ich strich den Namen der gewöhnlichen Werwolf-Akademie, die er angeblich so dringend brauchte, und trug stattdessen den Namen jener Schule ein, auf die meine Eltern schon vor Jahren bestanden hatten. Offenbar hatten alle eine Sache vergessen. Ich bin die einzige Erbin des Blutmond-Rudels. Lucien ist nichts weiter als der geduldete uneheliche Sohn des Silberkamm-Alphas. Ohne eine offizielle Bindung an mich würde er in diesem Leben niemals den Alpha-Thron besteigen. Eines Tages würde er begreifen, dass er nicht nur meine Zuneigung von sich gestoßen hatte.

When I'm eight months pregnant, my husband, Levi West, becomes a donor to help his ex-girlfriend get pregnant. He even brings her and their illegitimate child home, wanting me to serve them. I refuse, and he calls me inhumane. "Audie's lost her husband—what's so bad about her wanting to have a child? You're a woman, too! How can you be so cruel?" I leave the house in anger, but Levi doesn't care. "Where can a country girl like you go when you're so heavily pregnant? You're going to come back and beg me to take you in again!" I head to the hospital to get an abortion. Then, I return to the countryside and rear pigs with my grandmother. Later, when Levi sees my flat belly and asks to see our child, I throw a handful of ashes in his face. "There you go. It's all there."
