My fated mate left the pack, heartbroken, after I rejected him. Seven years later, he returned with his new mate-to-be. By then, the pack doctor had given me my final diagnosis. "Extreme wolf spirit decay." It was irreversible. My wolf would be gone within months. My life was at its end. My fated mate, Alpha Roric, now the most powerful Alpha in North America, smirked when he saw me. I was pale and thin, leaning on my sister for support. "Ayla. Seven years, and you're too weak to even stand straight? When you rejected me, didn't you say that beta was a better match? Where is he now?" His voice dripped with hate. I just tugged on the sleeves of my coat, hiding the way my fingers trembled. A tell-tale sign of my power slipping away. "It's just a cold." Roric's gaze swept over me like ice. "In that case, you should come to my Mating Ceremony with Cressida. I'll save you the best seat." I just smiled. "I can't. I'll be going somewhere far away soon. I'm sorry." Then, pulling my sister with me, I turned and melted into the shadows.

Juste avant la cérémonie d'accouplement, mon compagnon, Alpha Claude, m'a dit qu'il devait marquer temporairement une Oméga de notre meute, Fabienne. Il a prétendu qu'elle avait la maladie de la lune et qu'elle mourrait s'il ne la marquait pas. Je me suis disputée avec lui à ce sujet, mais le lendemain, il a installé Fabienne dans le penthouse de la Maison de la Meute. C'était la suite destinée à la future Luna. Ma suite. Pour me calmer, il s'est même mis à genoux, les yeux rougis, et m'a promis : « Quand elle sera en sécurité, j'enlèverai la marque. Tu resteras ma seule Luna. » Mais ensuite, Fabienne m'a retrouvée, un rapport médical à la main. Elle était enceinte de six semaines. Ils avaient déjà fait leur cérémonie de marquage bien avant que Claude ne vienne me voir. Mon cœur s'est brisé en cendres. Mon stylo a creusé le calendrier, gravant un X vicieux sur la date qui était censée être celle de notre cérémonie d'accouplement. Puis j'ai ouvert mon ordinateur portable et répondu à l'e-mail de la Guilde Européenne des Guérisseurs du Laurier. « J'accepte votre invitation, je pars le jour de la cérémonie d'accouplement. »

Meu companheiro destinado, Dexter, tornou-se o Rei Alfa quando seu irmão morreu. Ele herdou a coroa, o poder… e a companheira viúva do irmão, Jenica. Tudo porque eu, uma mestiça, falhei por anos em lhe dar um herdeiro de sangue puro. Ele me disse que precisava marcar Jenica, e a dor quase me despedaçou. Mas ele me segurou nos braços, beijou minhas lágrimas e jurou que seu lobo, seu destino, havia escolhido apenas a mim. Que eu sempre seria sua única e verdadeira Luna. Eu acreditei nele. E, ainda assim, ele passava todas as noites na cama dela. Então, Jenica engravidou. Enquanto a alcateia comemorava, Dexter me expulsou dos aposentos da Luna, tudo para que o filhote dela nascesse envolto na aura lunar mais pura da alcateia. À medida que eu sentia o nosso vínculo se desfazer, fio por fio doloroso, enviei uma última mensagem codificada a uma amiga no mundo humano. [Em quatro dias, me tire daqui.] Naquela noite, eu fiz uma escolha. Meus dias como companheira dele haviam acabado.

Our blood-oath ceremony was on the horizon. But my fated mate, Darius, told me he had to forge a blood bond with another woman. Livia. He claimed her life force was unraveling. That without his blood, she would fade to nothing. I fought him. But the next day, he moved Livia directly into the Prince's Chambers in the Coven’s castle. That was the suite reserved for the future Prince’s mate. My suite. He tried to soothe me, sinking to his knees, his crimson eyes pleading. “Once she’s stable, I swear I’ll break the bond. You are my only eternity. You always will be.” But then Livia found me. She showed me the fresh, golden mark on her wrist—the symbol of an Eternal Bond. They had already completed the sacred rite. Long before Darius ever confessed to me. My heart shattered to ash. I dragged my nail across the calendar, carving a vicious X over the date that was supposed to be our blood-oath ceremony. Then I opened the encrypted message from the Vienna Coven Academy. “I accept. I’ll leave on the day of our ceremony.”

I am soulless, cruel, and have no heart. I do not feel anything when I take their souls. They deserve it as their souls are impure. These dirty humans have souls whereas, I, do not. I cannot contain my jealousy towards them as they can die as they please whereas, I, cannot. I was once a mere mortal who loved a Goddess but I was betrayed and turned into something beautiful but hideous for eternity as my soul left me and lie asleep for eternity somewhere in the dark abyss. My beauty is lethal as I can deceive my prey. I have lived far more than any human can apprehend and I cannot remember how it feels to be a human and this little girl, an innocent beauty, a mere mortal, I should loathe, take her soul, and leave her dead cold. But why am I hesitating? Her innocent blue eyes and her bright smile is illuminating my darkness. I, Endymion, am a soulless immortal, must take her filthy soul with no hesitation and regret...

Vor sechs Jahren gab ich dem Jungen, der meine Welt in Flammen aufgehen ließ, alles: mein Herz, meinen Körper und mein Vertrauen. Am nächsten Tag verschwand er ohne ein Wort. Seitdem meinte das Leben es nicht gut mit mir. Ich begrub meine Eltern in derselben Woche, in der ich meinen neugeborenen Sohn aus dem Krankenhaus nach Hause brachte. Mit gerade einmal achtzehn wurde ich Mutter und Vormund meiner fünfzehnjährigen Schwester. Ich stand unter einer Last, die mich beinahe erdrückte. Als ich endlich glaubte, in einem liebevollen Ehemann Halt gefunden zu haben, fand ich heraus, dass er ein Doppelleben führte – mit einer anderen Frau. Jetzt rebelliert mein Sohn Jaxon. Er ist wütend auf die Welt und trägt Wunden, die ich nicht lindern kann. Nach einem weiteren Anruf aus der Schule, diesmal wegen eines drohenden Schulverweises, wurde mir klar, dass wir nicht länger so tun konnten, als wäre alles in Ordnung. Wir brauchten einen Neuanfang. Ich hätte nie erwartet, dass dieser Neuanfang mich in eine verschlafene Bergstadt führen würde, die ein gefährliches Geheimnis verbirgt... oder zu ihm. Denn diese Stadt grenzt an ein verborgenes Werwolfsrudel. Ihr Alpha ist niemand anderes als der Junge, der vor sechs Jahren verschwand. Derselbe Junge, der nicht ahnt, dass er mir mehr hinterließ als nur ein gebrochenes Herz... Er hinterließ mir seinen Sohn. Warnung! Diese Geschichte ist ein Reverse-Harem und enthält durchgehend explizite Szenen (einschließlich M/M).

Le jour du troisième anniversaire de mon union avec Kévin Rogier, Alpha de la tribu l'Ombre, je lui ai préparé un cadeau. C'était un test de grossesse marqué de deux lignes rouges. Son cadeau pour moi, en revanche, était un contrat visant à dissoudre notre union. En voyant le document, j'avais les yeux qui sortaient des orbites, oubliant momentanément de tendre la main pour le prendre. Kévin s'est éclairci la gorge avec embarras et a expliqué : « Susie a été trompée par un scélérat et est tombée enceinte. Son futur enfant, né hors mariage, ne pourra pas prétendre aux droits de résidence de la tribu », a-t-il poursuivi, « Je propose de rompre temporairement notre union afin que je puisse en établir une provisoire avec elle, lui accordant ainsi un statut légal à son enfant. Une fois qu'elle aura accouché, nous nous remettrons ensemble. D'accord ? » Il m'a tendu le papier de nouveau, qui avait manifestement été préparé depuis un bon moment. Remarquant mon hésitation, il a continué avec une voix tendre : « C'est toi que j'aime. Ce n'est que par amitié que je l'aide. Même si nous nous séparons, je ne te laisserai subir aucune injustice. » J'ai levé les yeux vers lui, souriante et sans dire un mot, caressant le test de grossesse dans ma poche. Les deux lignes rouges étaient visibles depuis longtemps.
