Ryder, mi esposo y el Alfa de la manada, siempre ha odiado el llanto de los cachorros. Pero últimamente, empezó a cuidar al cachorro recién nacido de mi hermana adoptiva, quedándose a su lado en la guardería cada noche, hasta el amanecer. Cada vez que salía de nuestro hogar para ir a la guardería, un dolor fuerte e inexplicable me partía el corazón. Esta agonía duraba toda la noche, hasta que regresaba al amanecer. Pero llegué al límite. En el festival de la luna llena, anuncié frente a toda la manada que rompería nuestro vínculo. El enlace mental de la manada estalló en murmullos; todos pensaban que la batalla me había afectado el juicio. Una luz dorada se encendió en los ojos de Ryder mientras me miraba con incredulidad. —¿Solo porque estuve ocupado para ver cómo estabas después de que te hirieron, vas a romper nuestro vínculo? ¿Y todo por un cachorro de seis meses? Evité su mirada. En lugar de eso, mi vista se detuvo en la leve marca de labial corrida en el interior de su cuello. Aunque me temblaba la voz, me mantuve firme. —Ya que tanto quieres a su cachorro, en cuanto nuestro vínculo se rompa, podrás ser su padre sin tener que esconderte.

C'est la quatre-vingt-dix-neuvième fois que mon compagnon Alpha a bloqué notre lien mental, j'étais en phase terminale de Dépérissement Spirituel de la Louve. J'ai traîné mon corps brisé jusqu'au Hall du Conseil. Les marches de marbre froid m'ont râpé la plante des pieds, et à chaque pas une douleur déchirante a labouré ma poitrine. « Je viens déposer une demande de quitter la meute. » Le conseiller a examiné ma silhouette pâle et maigre avec un regard compatissant et a demandé doucement : « En êtes-vous certaine, Mademoiselle ? Vous renonceriez à la protection de la meute. » Depuis l'enfance, ma louve a toujours été instable, me rendant fragile. Depuis que mon père a ramené ma sœur adoptive, Lydia, quand j'avais dix ans, mes parents m'ont traitée comme une honte pour la famille. Bien que j'aie été sa compagne marquée pendant des années, Collin ne m'a jamais promise une cérémonie de Luna. Il m'a rarement conduite aux rassemblements de la meute. Par conséquent, presque personne dans la meute n'a su qui j'étais. « Peu importe, » ai-je dit, ma voix calme malgré l'effort. « Je serai morte dans trois jours. »

~~~~~ NYRA ~~~~~ “Jayden! For heaven’s sake, we can’t make love. I’m way above your age!!” “We both know we want this,” he whispered against my earlobes, his fingers crawling under my skin. He doesn't want to take no for an answer. “You’ve been my secret crush right from when I met you, up until now.” ——— I was supposed to marry the man I’d loved since I was a child. But one brutal truth destroyed everything and I walked away from the altar — humiliated, broken, and alone. That night, my world fell apart again. But when I opened my eyes in the hospital, the first thing I saw was Jayden Sterlings. A twenty-five-year-old. Intelligent. Insufferably arrogant and far too young for me. Yet— somehow, he’s dangerously charming for my mental health. He offered me protection when I needed it most. “A secret marriage with no emotions and no strings attached. Just my own safety.” But living under the same roof with Jayden is dangerous in a different way. The kind that tempts you to forget every rule you’d sworn you’d follow. His touch burns through every wall I’ve built around myself. His voice makes my heart race too fast. And the way he looks at me makes me completely forget my own name. But when a terrifying secret about Jayden comes to the surface, I'm left with a difficult choice. Walking away from everything again… Or falling for the man I was never supposed to want.

I sponsored Emily Fagan from an underprivileged background just to help her get through school. She was good-looking but wasn't exactly the brightest. Despite my warning not to tamper with my things, she slipped stimulants into my water bottle. Thanks to her, I was accused of cheating in the swimming competition. Our team's score was nullified. As for me, I was banned from competing for life and kicked out of college. When I confronted her, she cried pitifully, "Julie, I just wanted you to win. I didn't know that'd happen." My boyfriend, Elijah Strauss, held her and comforted her. He even snapped at me, claiming, "Em had good intentions. Why are you giving her a hard time?" Crushed, I shut myself in at home. Feeling sorry, she and Elijah visited me and brought along some vodka as an apology. After I took ten shots, I asked her to buy some over-the-counter pain relievers for my splitting headache. Little did I know that she'd make me take a dangerous dose of Ibuprofen mixed with alcohol. The bleeding in my stomach was what killed me. Emily looked pitifully remorseful at the hospital. "I'm so sorry. I couldn't even tell what I shouldn't have given her…" During the police interrogation, my boyfriend gave false testimony to protect her. He accused me of taking my own life by mixing Ibuprofen and alcohol because I couldn't handle the mental stress from cheating in the competition. When I reopened my eyes, I found out that I was transported to the day before the competition.
