Ma vie était toute tracée. Je savais que j’hériterais de la meute, mais je ne savais pas qu’un mariage arrangé faisait partie des devoirs de l’Alpha. Donc, évidemment, je n’aimais pas la fille que mes parents avaient choisie, même si c’était ma compagne — belle et intelligente !Mon instinct de compagnon m’avait poussé à la revendiquer, mais mon côté rationnel me força à la rejeter après une nuit parfaite. Je n’ai réalisé mon amour pour elle que lorsque je l’ai perdue, quand elle a quitté la meute pour réaliser ses rêves. Cependant, mon amour n’était pas mort quand je l’ai revue, lors de mes fiançailles avec quelqu’un d’autre. Cette fois-ci, je ne la laisserai pas partir, même si ça voulait dire blesser une autre fille, ou même provoquer une guerre de meute. Mais elle m’avait dit que ce n’était pas possible, qu’elle aimait quelqu’un d’autre et qu’elle avait déjà eu un enfant de lui. Déçu et désespéré, je pensais l’avoir perdue pour toujours, mais… Pourquoi est-ce que son bébé me dit quelque chose ?

Nagising si Cresia sa nakakasilaw na liwanag. Iginala niya ang paningin. She found myself lying on the cold ground. Huling naalala niya, habang pabalik siya sa condo... may nakita siyang batang babae sa kabilang bahagi ng kalsada. The girl was about to get hit by a car but she saved her. Bumangon siya at muling iginala ang tingin sa paligid. Nasaan na ang batang iniligtas niya? Where is she now? Napapikit siya nang tamaan ang mata ng sinag ng araw. Fuck. At bakit umaga na? Nakatulog ba siya sa daan? Ibinaba niya ang tingin sa sarili. She remember she was covered with blood. But how come she was perfectly fine now? Walang anumang bahid ng dugo ang damit niya... Iginalaw ni Cresia ang kamay. Wala siyang naramdamang anumang masakit doon. Nanlaki ang mga mata niya nang makita ang isang paparating na truck. Fuck! Her first instinct is to run. But it is too late. The truck is only meters away from her. Mariin niyang ipinikit ang mga mata at hinintay ang pagtama niyon sa kanya... But seconds passed. Nothing happened. Walang truck na tumama sa kanya. Bakit? Dahan-dahang idinilat ni Cresia ang mga mata. Wala na ang truck. Bakit? Anong nangyari? Muli niyang inalala ang nangyari kagabi... She was fucking sure she got hit by a car. Hindi kaya...hindi kaya...patay na siya? "Not yet." Isang lalaki ang biglang sumulpot sa tabi niya. Para itong galing sa libing sa suot na damit. Black cape, black pants, black shoes. Everything is black. Even his eyes. They're as dark as his outfit. "S-sino ka?" He smiled to her. Hindi alam ni Cresia kung bakit kinilabutan siya sa ngiti ng lalaki. "I'm Kairos. Your death angel." Death angel? "What? I... I'm...I'm dead?"
