O'block

Três meses depois que meu marido, Josiah Erikson, desapareceu em um acidente de esqui, eu o vejo em um bar. Ele está rindo despreocupadamente, com o braço jogado de forma casual sobre os ombros da sua "melhor amiga", Monica Jones. — Ainda bem que você teve a ideia. Eu já estava quase esquecendo como é a sensação de liberdade. Um por um, os amigos brindam com ele e perguntam quando pretende reaparecer. Ele abaixa o olhar, finge pensar por um momento e então responde: — Daqui a uma semana. Vou aparecer quando ela já tiver enlouquecido completamente me procurando. Escondida nas sombras, observo enquanto ele saboreia sua "liberdade"... E então ligo para minha amiga que trabalha no departamento estadual de registros civis.

O maior erro que já cometi na vida foi me apaixonar pelo meu meio-irmão Alfa, Cayden Gates. Eu tinha 12 anos quando minha mãe se casou de novo, e ele foi o único na nova alcateia que me tratou com gentileza. Me apaixonei por ele à primeira vista. Quando eu tinha 16 anos, fui atacada por lobos selvagens, e ele enfrentou dez deles sozinho para me proteger. Aos 18, ele foi envenenado por prata. Quase morreu. Foi quando minha loba me disse que ele era meu companheiro destinado. Sem hesitar, doei minha medula óssea para salvá-lo. Naquela noite, olhando para ele dormindo com o rosto pálido, não resisti e beijei o canto dos seus lábios. Ele abriu os olhos naquele exato momento, o rosto corado. — Tessa, somos irmãos. Você não deveria ultrapassar esse limite. A partir daquele dia, ele começou a me evitar, como se eu fosse um erro que ele não podia se permitir cometer. Sua noiva, Rosie Lloyd, tinha sido diagnosticada com uma doença sanguínea rara, e eu era a única doadora compatível. Pela primeira vez, ele me implorou. — Se você aceitar salvá-la, eu concordo com qualquer coisa. Mas eu já estava fraca por causa do transplante de medula. Doar sangue de novo poderia me matar. Eu disse não, e no final Rosie morreu. Ele não derramou uma única lágrima, como se nada tivesse acontecido. Mas no funeral dela, ele destruiu o retrato que eu tinha pintado dele na frente de todos e disse friamente: — Que nojo você ter a audácia de sonhar em ficar com seu próprio irmão. Depois disso, me tornei uma vergonha, motivo de piada por onde passava. A humilhação e o desespero me consumiram por completo, e em um momento de confusão, caí no lago e me afoguei. Quando abro os olhos de novo, estou de volta ao momento em que ele me implora por sangue. Eu digo sim, calmamente. Considero isso a última dívida que tenho com a família Gates. Cayden, a partir de agora, acabou entre nós. Não existe mais nenhum laço nos unindo.
