Quand j'ai été encerclée par la meute de renégats loin de notre territoire, j'ai envoyé un lien mental à mon compagnon, Alpha Luke, le suppliant de m'aider. Il m'a refusée quinze fois — et finalement, il a bloqué complètement le lien. À la fin, je me suis effondrée d'épuisement et j'ai perdu connaissance, ma louve hurlant de désespoir. Quand je me suis réveillée à l'infirmerie, Alex, le commandant de la Tribu des Loups-Garous, était assis calmement à mes côtés. C'était lui qui avait reçu mon appel désespéré. Il avait mené ses guerriers, écrasé les renégats et m'avait arrachée à la mort. J'ai pris une grande inspiration et j'ai dit avec une détermination sans faille : « Alex, j'ai pris ma décision. J'irai dans le Territoire du Nord pour l'entraînement. Je pars dans deux jours. » Dix minutes plus tard, Luke a fait irruption dans la pièce avec Kristie — sa soi-disant sœur adoptive — et nos jumeaux qui le suivaient de près. « Tu as monté cette mise en scène juste pour éclipser Kristie ? Tu te rends compte de la force guerrière que tu as gaspillée pour flatter ton ego ? Tu ne mérites pas d'être Luna ! » Mon fils aîné, Chris, m'a lancé un regard perçant et a ricané : « Elle est où, ta blessure, Maman ? Tu as l'air en parfaite santé. Tu as tout simulé juste pour attirer l'attention ? » Mon fils cadet, Colin, m'a regardée avec des yeux pleins de déception. Il a lentement secoué la tête et a murmuré : « Maman, tu nous as encore menti… juste parce qu'on aime davantage Kristie ? » Kristie a serré la main de Luke, sa voix tremblait d'une fausse innocence tandis que des larmes coulaient sur ses joues : « Je suis désolée, Christina… Je ne fêterai plus jamais mon anniversaire. S'il te plaît… arrête de créer des problèmes à Luke et aux jumeaux. » J'ai serré les poings, retenant ma louve furieuse. J'ai regardé les quatre tourner les talons et sortir sans un seul regard en arrière.
