After my best friend, Amber Stone, gets addicted to gambling, she excitedly tells me that she wants to take me to Las Gavas on a trip all of a sudden. "I just won a huge sum of money! I'll treat you to a night in a grand, luxurious hotel there!" But after the plane lands on the tarmac, Amber leads me into a private room tucked away in the depths of a casino.

Anim na taon ang lumipas mula nang talikuran ni Zephyra Arcadia ang lalaking kanyang minahal—ang tahimik at prinsipyadong si Wren Deveraux—para sa mas “tamang” desisyon sa mata ng mundo. Isang kasal na may pangalan, kapangyarihan, at proteksyon. Ngunit kapalit nito ang isang buhay na puno ng pananakit, takot, at unti-unting pagguho ng sarili. Nang tuluyan niyang piliing makipaghiwalay sa lalaking sumira sa kanya, akala ni Zephyra ay sapat na ang lakas ng loob. Hindi niya inasahan na ang mas mahirap na laban ay ang harapin ang lalaking iniwan niya noon—ang lalaking ngayon ay isa nang makapangyarihang abogado na kayang pabagsakin ang sinuman… at kasama siya. Wren Deveraux—ang lalaking minahal niya, at lalaking matagal nang itinuring na patay ang pangalan niya sa puso nito. Malamig, mapanupil, at may galit na anim na taong kinikimkim. Isang lalaking hindi tumutulong nang libre, at hindi nagpapatawad basta-basta. Isang gabi. Isang silid. Isang kompromisong walang malinaw na hangganan. Habang sinusubukan ni Zephyra na buuin muli ang sarili at ipaglaban ang kalayaan niya, mas lalo naman siyang hinihila ni Wren pabalik—hindi bilang minamahal, kundi bilang isang bagay na minsan nang naging kanya. Pero sa pagitan ng galit at paghihiganti, posible pa bang mabuhay ang pagmamahal na matagal nang inilibing? O sadyang huli na ang lahat para sa ikalawang pagkakataon?

Hindi siya ang tunay na nobya. Sa araw ng kasal, napilitan si Naveda na isuot ang damit ng kapatid niya, akuin ang pangalang hindi kanya, at pakasalan ang lalaking hindi naman siya ang pinili. Isang kasinungalingang ginawa para iligtas ang pamilya, ngunit nauwi sa limang taong pagkakulong sa isang malamig at walang pagmamahal na pagsasama.

When my mind-link request had been ignored by my parents for the twentieth time, I went to the Werewolf Council, clutching the report on silver dust corrosion in my hand. “Hello. I’d like to renounce my pack identity—effective immediately.” Ten minutes later, my parents burst in, dragging my adoptive younger sister, Elsa, with them, panic written all over their faces. The door burst open with a bang, and my Beta father charged in like a storm. His fangs bared, claws twitching. “You’re nothing but a spoiled brat craving attention! Stop this pathetic act. You’re an embarrassment to a Beta’s name!” My mother, a forensic specialist for the pack, immediately snatched the report from my hand. After a brief glance, she let out a cold sneer. “You faked this report just to get our attention? You’ve been a liar since you were a pup.” Elsa clung to both of them, tears in her eyes as she sobbed, “I’m sorry, Jenifer. It’s my fault for holding the shifting ritual. But please... don’t lie to our parents just to make them feel guilty!” Blood was still pouring from my nose, but I wiped it away calmly and stood tall before the werewolf councilors once more. “I haven’t had a real family for a long time. Please—remove all my personal records from the pack. I just don’t want my funeral—scheduled for three days from now—to be delayed.”
