Soulmates. Everyone, between the ages of sixteen and eighteen, would have the names of their soulmates appear on their left or right wrist in a light grey ink that turned red when you meet them. Should your soulmates die then their name would turn white. *** *** Luca stood staring down at the water below him as he stood on the thick cement railing of the bridge. Looking down at his wrists he traced the names Williams Roswell and Jedidiah Roswell, the names of his soulmates who he had yet to meet. “I’m sorry,” He sobbed. “I can’t do it anymore. You both will be better off without me, you don’t need me… I’m nothing…”. “Goodbye.” He dropped his hands to his sides and took a deep breath then jumped in.

There were werewolves, then alphas, then there’s Dario an apex alpha, and Lycan of over 120 years with no mate. He had already resigned to fate thinking that he was being punished for his cruelty, or that his mate had died during the Great War. One fateful day, he finds out that the neighboring alphas were auctioning their kind (an act that had been abolished a century ago), and went feral. What happens when he gets there and his wolf starts acting out of character? What happens when he sees what he has wished for his whole life? What happens when he sees that she’s human? What happens when he finds out that she may be ‘not so human’ and part of the clan he despised the most? Would he go against every rule in the book to make her his?

Après la Grande Guerre entre les Humains et les Bêtes, un accord était conclu : le monde serait désormais gouverné par les Hommes-Bêtes. Tous les cent ans, une union sacrée était scellée entre les deux races, et celui ou celle qui donnerait naissance en premier à un enfant hybride deviendrait le dirigeant de la prochaine génération. Dans ma vie antérieure, j'avais choisi d'épouser Jordan Malet, le fils aîné du Clan des Loups, réputé pour sa passion fidèle. Je lui avais donné un Homme-Bête au sang sacré de loup blanc. Notre enfant était devenu le successeur désigné de l'Alliance Humano-Bestiale, et Jordan avait logiquement acquis un pouvoir absolu. Ma sœur Denise Vasseur, elle, séduite par la beauté des Renards, avait épousé l'aîné du Clan des Renards. Mais ce dernier, au cœur volage et à la vie dissolue, lui avait transmis une maladie et l'avait rendue stérile. Dévorée par la jalousie, Denise avait mis le feu à notre demeure et nous avait brûlés vifs, moi et mon jeune fils… Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, je me suis retrouvée le jour même de l'union entre Humains et Bêtes. Denise, plus rapide cette fois, s'était déjà glissée dans le lit de Jordan. Oui, elle aussi s'était visiblement réincarnée. Mais ce qu'elle ignorait, c'était que Jordan, derrière son apparente noblesse, cachait une nature brutale et violente. Il n'avait jamais été, et ne serait jamais, un bon partenaire !

Une seconde avant que la morsure fatale d'Alpha Daniel ne s'imprime dans ma peau, une voix stridente a fendu l'air de la cérémonie d'union. « Arrêtez ! » Jessica, son premier amour, s'est avancée en titubant, le ventre hautement arrondi. « Vous allez vraiment laisser cette femme malveillante devenir notre Luna ? » a-t-elle sangloté, son doigt tremblant pointé vers moi, « Elle me harcèle depuis des mois ! Elle a mis du poison dans mon thé, déposé des couteaux devant ma porte, et a tenté de me forcer à avorter de l'enfant de notre Alpha ! » Face à ces accusations soudaines, mon esprit est devenu vide. « Quoi ? Je n'ai jamais... » Avant que je ne puisse terminer, Jessica s'est ruée sur moi. J'ai levé les bras par instinct, mais elle s'est effondrée lourdement au sol. « Mon bébé ! » a-t-elle hurlé, « Daniel, regarde ! Elle cherche encore à nous faire du mal ! Appelle les gardes, vite ! » Une seconde plus tard, Daniel s'est précipité et a enlacé Jessica sans la moindre hésitation. Son regard était glacé et déçu lorsqu'il m'a fixée : « Rosie, pourquoi ne peux-tu pas simplement rester à ta place ? Cet enfant est l'héritier de notre meute ! » Les anciens ont échangé des regards sombres et pleins de sous-entendus, prononçant silencieusement mon verdict. Incapable de prouver mon innocence, j'étais alors condamnée à trois années de prison dans le cauchemardesque Prison d'Argent. Les fouets, la faim et les violences incessantes… J'ai compris enfin ce que Daniel entendait par « rester à sa place ». Alors pourquoi, au final, était-ce lui qui regrettait ?
