“Don’t get me wrong” the hybrid king said looking at the human king, his eyes blue eyes piercing the human king’s green ones, it was like he was begging for the king to object, but he knew that he couldn’t it was his people’s life on the line “but this is just a mere game of thrones” “The child is not even born yet, and we do not know if it’s a boy or God forbid, a girl” the human king glared at the hybrid who was making a bargain with him over his own child. “I did not say that it had to be this child King Leonardo” the hybrid king smiled his eyes genuine as he looked at king Leonardo. “And yet, you are forcing me to make a bargain over my own child King Niklaus” King Leonardo snapped. “I am not forcing you King Leonardo, I am merely giving you the option, should I marry your child, then your kingdom is safe, and should you object, then you are forced to accept us on your realm, with your people, until of course our creatures manage to overthrow all of you” the look on King Leonardo’s face told King Niklaus that he had already gotten what he wanted, which was all he needed to hear right now. “Should my daughter be born, and come to age, she will marry you” King Leonardo said in defeat, the hybrid smiled and nodded at King Leonardo. “Pleasure doing business with you King Leonardo”

Dans notre meute, chaque loup avait une seule chance dans sa vie d'utiliser un élixir d'amélioration pour renforcer ses capacités, mais cet élixir ne fonctionnait que s'il était préparé par soi-même. Dans ma vie précédente, même si j'étais une simple Oméga, j'avais passé mes journées et mes nuits à préparer mon propre élixir pour devenir la Gamma de la meute. Mais, le jour de la sélection, dès que je me suis transformée, j'ai totalement perdu le contrôle. Ma louve s'est aussitôt prosternée aux pieds de Victoria, la petite-fille du Bêta actuel. Sous les acclamations de toute la meute, Victoria est devenue la nouvelle Gamma. Moi, on m'a battue et humiliée. Tout le monde disait que j'avais volé l'élixir de Victoria, et c'est pour ça que je ne contrôlais plus ma louve. Ils m'ont coupé les deux mains et m'ont jetée dans une mine d'argent. J'ai souffert d'une douleur insupportable dans cette fosse, mes os rongés par l'argent. Jusqu'à mon dernier souffle, je n'ai pas compris… Comment mon propre élixir avait-il pu faire plier ma louve devant Victoria ? Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'étais revenue une semaine avant la sélection du Gamma. Cette fois, j'ai renoncé à participer et je suis partie seule dans la forêt pour m'entraîner au combat. Le Bêta Richard est resté planté dans l'embrasure de ma maison, me demandant par notre lien mental pourquoi je partais à un moment si important. Pendant ce temps, j'ai retiré mon amulette protectrice, puis je me suis transformée seule en louve pour aller affronter les loups errants sur leur territoire.
