“No, i…. I...i don't want to die.” i managed to say, still struggling to catch my breath. “Good, because i only grant death to people who don't want to live anymore.” he said grabbing my neck. “Alpha Marcus, she is here. Ella is here?” I didn't recognize the voice but he immediately let go of his grip on my neck. Any minute longer and i think i would have died. He walked towards the strange man standing at the door, the room was full of tension now. Who was Ella and what was she here for? They both stepped outside and he shouted from the doorway. “You better be in your best behavior when i come back or you are going to join your mother.” Painful tears stung my eyes, every time he mentioned my mother i wished she had lived long enough to protect me.

Trois jours avant ma cérémonie de marquage, quelqu’un a incendié la boutique nuptiale alors que j'étais en train d’essayer ma robe. Alpha Marcus a jeté l'incendiaire en prison, le condamnant à la peine la plus sévère autorisée par nos lois. Allongée sur mon lit d’hôpital, le corps couvert de brûlures au troisième degré, je refusais d’ouvrir complètement les yeux, incapable d’accepter l’horreur de ma défiguration. Dans un état semi-conscient, j’ai entendu Marcus parler avec la guérisseuse de la meute. « Alpha, nous pouvons encore la guérir complètement avec la magie ancienne. Si nous attendons plus longtemps, Sarah gardera ces cicatrices à vie ! Vous voulez juste que Mademoiselle Rachel devienne votre Luna lors de la cérémonie. C'est d’une cruauté inqualifiable ! » « Laisse-lui ces cicatrices. Je prendrai soin d’elle jusqu’à la fin de ses jours, mais si elle guérit, elle viendra semer le trouble à la cérémonie. » « J’ai promis à Rachel que son enfant serait accueilli dans la meute avec tous les honneurs. Tant que Sarah sera complètement défigurée, elle sera assez reconnaissante pour élever l’enfant de Rachel comme le sien. Ces cicatrices sont nécessaires — au moins ainsi, elle n’osera jamais maltraiter le petit. » Dans un coin de la chambre, hors de leur regard, une larme a coulé sur ma joue brûlée. Alors, c’était ça, la vérité. La cérémonie dont j’avais tant rêvé n’était qu’un mensonge. Le lien d’âme que j’espérais tant était en réalité ma condamnation à mort. Si c’était ainsi, alors je lui donnerais exactement ce qu’il voulait.
