Le jour où j’ai appris que Robert avait laissé tomber tout ce qu’il faisait pour apporter des médicaments à sa petite assistante enrhumée, alors même que j’étais coincée dans un ascenseur, en proie à une violente crise de claustrophobie, j’ai pris ma décision : demander le divorce. Robert a signé les papiers sans la moindre hésitation, puis a plaisanté devant ses amis : « Elle fait juste un petit caprice. Ses parents sont morts, elle n’a personne d’autre que moi. Elle ne pourra jamais divorcer. » « Et puis, il y a bien un délai de réflexion de trente jours, non ? Si elle change d’avis, je serai magnanime et je la laisserai revenir. » Le lendemain, il a posté une photo de couple avec sa petite assistante sur les réseaux sociaux, avec une légende pleine de suffisance : « Capturer chacun de tes moments précieux. » De mon côté, je comptais les jours en silence. Calmement, j’ai rangé mes affaires et composé un numéro. « Tonton, peux-tu m’acheter un billet pour ville N ? »

"Don't move," he trailed his kisses to my neck after saying it, his hands were grasping my hands, entwining his fingers with mine, putting them above my head.

« Papa, j'ai accepté l'alliance matrimoniale avec la meute du Boisnoir. » Un silence s'est étiré de son côté du lien avant qu'il ne réponde enfin : « Caterina, es-tu certaine ? » « Je le suis. » Je ne lui ai pas dit la vraie raison. La nuit dernière, une douleur déchirante m'a transpercée à travers notre lien de compagnons. À travers ce maudit lien, j'ai tout vu… Mon Alpha, Rocco, était dans la cabane de ses terrains de chasse privés, clouant Scarlett, son amie d'enfance, contre le mur et l'embrassant avec une frénésie désespérée. Je l'ai confrontée directement lors de la réunion de la meute. Un éclair de triomphe brillait dans ses yeux avant qu'elle ne feigne l'innocence. « Caterina, je n'ai aucune idée de ce dont tu parles. » À ce moment-là, la voix de Rocco a rugi à travers le lien mental ouvert, résonnant dans les esprits de tous les présents. « Caterina, en tant que Luna de la meute, tu ne devrais pas créer une scène comme celle-ci. Scarlett n'est qu'une amie. » À cet instant, mon cœur est mort complètement. Il était mon Alpha, mon mari – l'homme avec lequel j'avais passé des années à l'aider à gravir les échelons du pouvoir. J'ai rompu mon lien mental avec Rocco. La douleur de cette déconnexion forcée était tellement intense que j'avais du mal à tenir debout, mais j'ai redressé ma colonne vertébrale et ai envoyé ma réponse. « Je serai à la maison dans deux semaines. » Retourner à la maison et épouser l'Alpha le plus puissant en France. On dit qu'il est froid et impitoyable, indifférent à toute louve. Parfait. Je n'ai pas besoin d'amour. J'ai juste besoin d'un Alpha assez fort pour m'aider à sécuriser la meute de la Lune Argente. Et quant à Rocco ? La Déesse Lune nous a donné un destin, et c'est lui qui l'a brisé de ses propres mains. Maintenant, je vais saisir le mien.

Alors qu'on m'a tranchée morceau par morceau, j'ai trouvé la force d'appeler mon frère. Il a décroché quand ma conscience s'est brouillée, avec une voix pleine d'agacement. « Qu'est-ce que tu veux encore ? » « Alex, sauve-moi… » Je n'ai pas fini ma phrase qu'il m'a coupée net. « Comment se fait-il que tu aies toujours des histoires ? À la fin du mois c'est la fête d'Élise Dubois, si tu ne viens pas, je te fais la peau ! » Après ces mots, il a raccroché sans hésiter. La douleur m'a vaincue, j'ai fermé les yeux pour toujours, avec des larmes encore aux coins de mes yeux. « Alex, tu n'as pas besoin de me tuer, je suis déjà morte. »
