Deborah a été maltraitée toute sa vie. Pendant son enfance, elle a été maltraitée par sa belle-mère et ses demi-frères et demi-sœurs, ce qui lui a fait perdre sa capacité à parler en raison du traumatisme. À l’âge adulte, elle avait pensé que les choses changeraient lorsqu’elle épouserait l’homme qu’elle aimait, Roger Peterson, mais il la détestait parce qu’elle était muette. Roger était toujours distant et ne se souciait jamais de la douleur qu’il lui causait. En plus, son attention s’est entièrement portée sur son amour depuis son enfance, la faisant sa maîtresse. Craignant d’être seule, Deborah a enduré son mariage avec Roger pendant trois ans. Elle avait pensé que si elle l’aimait et le comprenait, il remarquerait sa valeur et quitterait sa maîtresse. Mais elle s’est vite rendu compte que cela n’arriverait jamais et avait atteint sa limite. Deborah voulait divorcer pour chercher son propre bonheur. Même si Roger refusait de le faire, elle n’abandonnerait pas parce qu’elle avait trouvé une raison de se battre pour son droit de retrouver une vie heureuse.

Sous la lueur lunaire, Lyra courait, son cœur battant la chamade. Elle fuyait un mariage imposé, une cage dorée qu’on voulait lui forger. Elle n’était qu’une pièce échangée dans un jeu cruel, jusqu'à ce qu’il apparaisse. Kael. Le loup aux yeux perçants, qui ne la regardait pas comme une simple proie. Il la sauvait, non pas par obligation, mais par désir. Kael, l'héritier de la meute, sentait la chaleur de son corps près du sien. Il la contemplait, le cœur battant la chamade, les désirs naissant dans chaque fibre de son être. Ses mains brûlaient d’envie de la toucher, mais il savait que cet amour, cette attraction violente, allait tout bouleverser. Mais le prix à payer serait lourd. La meute de Kael ne tolérerait jamais un lien avec une louve d’une autre lignée. Son propre père, Alpha implacable, allait lui interdire cette relation. Lyra, elle, n’avait rien à perdre, sinon sa liberté et ses rêves. Seraient-ils prêts à braver les interdits, à risquer tout pour se choisir, malgré la tempête qui les attendait ? La passion naissante entre eux allait bien au-delà des règles. Elle allait redéfinir leurs vies, mais à quel prix ?

A decade of planning culminates in a nearly bloodless coup in the Kingdom of Aleghor. King Benedict takes the throne with the intention of eradicating the corruption which was synonymous with the rule and name of his predecessor, King Atomas. It is a task that proves to be harder than overthrowing the kingdom itself and while Benedict sometimes compromises his values while acting with the best intentions, his actions will take their toll on himself and those who support him. When loyalties start to fall into question and control starts to slip away from Benedict, how far will he go to ensure the survival of his dream to eradicate the corruption and bring peace to all men in the kingdom? How far and long will the loyalty and love of his supporters last? This fantasy is set in a city against the backdrop of a city similar to Pompeii and the volcano, Vesuvius. A character similar to Samson in the bible helps to create an epic fantasy story including romance and tragedy while fundamentally following a storyline inspired by Cold Play's song of the same name. With the events similar to the life of Samson described in this novel, do not expect this story to be religious. It isn't. It is also only one part of the overall story. It is also not a retelling of the end of Pompeii.

Le premier amour de mon mari a été brûlée par de l'eau bouillante, et pour me punir, il m'a enfermée dans un cuiseur à vapeur à mi-hauteur, avec le feu réglé au maximum. « Tu dois subir mille fois la douleur que Pauline a endurée ! » J'étais enfermée dans cet espace étroit, je respirais difficilement, mon corps brûlait, et je lui ai crié en pleurant : « Je vais vraiment mourir ! » Mais il est parti sans se retourner, tenant son premier amour dans ses bras. « Ne t'inquiète pas, tu ne mourras pas. C'est la seule façon pour toi de comprendre la souffrance de Pauline ! » J'ai hurlé de désespoir dans le cuiseur, l'eau bouillante sous le panier s'est mise à éclabousser mon corps, et ma voix s'est peu à peu éteinte. Il est tout de suite parti en voyage à l'étranger avec son premier amour, et ce n'était qu'une semaine plus tard, en rentrant, qu'il s'est soudain souvenu de moi. « Cette garce a sûrement compris sa faute, sortez-la de là ! » Mais il ne savait pas que, dans le cuiseur arrêté par le manque d'eau, mon cadavre était déjà couvert de vers.
