Proxy Escape

La novena ceremonia de unión entre el Rey Alfa, Thorne Ravencrest, y yo, finalmente ha llegado. Sin embargo, una vez más, no logré convertirme en su Reina Luna. No porque él rompiera su promesa, sino porque no estoy lo suficientemente calificada. Los Ancianos dejaron muy claro que, cada Reina Luna reconocida por la Diosa de la Luna, a lo largo de la historia debe cultivar 365 Flores de Luz de Luna, utilizando su propia esencia de sangre. Pero cada año, en la víspera de la ceremonia, sin importar cuánto cuidado tenga, siempre falta una flor. Este año, casi me desangré por completo y apenas logré cultivar el número correcto. Extasiada, voy a buscar a Thorne, queriendo sorprenderlo. A través de la puerta entreabierta de la sala del trono, escucho a su Beta decirle: —Rey Alfa, Sera lo ha estado esperando por ocho años. ¿Alguna vez se unirá a ella? Thorne sacude la cabeza. —Le prometí a Willow que este año tampoco podemos unirnos. Su Beta vacila. —¿Y si Sera realmente logra cultivar suficientes Flores de Luz de Luna? Thorne se queda en silencio por un momento y luego aplaude. Un lobo de las sombras aparece y se funde en la oscuridad. Poco después, el lobo regresa con una Flor de Luz de Luna entre sus mandíbulas. Él desgarra la flor hasta hacerla trizas y deja escapar un suspiro. —Sera tiene sangre de sobra. Olvida un año; ella podría seguir cultivando flores por otros diez años y estar bien. Pero Willow ha sido envenenada con acónito. Soy todo lo que le queda, y ella me quiere a su lado en sus últimos días. No soporto rechazar a Willow, lo que significa que Sera simplemente tendrá que esperar un poco más. Me muerdo el labio con fuerza, apenas capaz de creer lo que escucho. Así que las Flores de Luz de Luna que desaparecían misteriosamente siempre fueron destruidas por él. Convertirme en Reina Luna ha sido mi sueño desde la infancia. Pero si él nunca tuvo la intención de unirse a mí, entonces es hora de que lo deje.

My husband and I have been legally married for five years. This is the tenth time he's canceled our wedding ceremony. This time? His student, Laura, is competing in her first international violin competition—and he 'needs' to be there. I still remember the last cancellation: an awards ceremony he had to attend with her. The time before that? She fell ill, and he stayed at her hospital bedside. The other times? I've lost count of the excuses, but it doesn't matter. The reason is always Laura. Her needs always outweighed my wedding. My marriage. My life. Fine. If he wanted to stand by Laura so badly, he could stay there forever. This hollow, five-year farce of a marriage? It's over.

I was born with a strange condition. I couldn't recognize faces and could only identify people by their clothes. Vincent Lancaster, my boyfriend, never minded. He said it didn't change the way he loved me. That was, until our wedding day. He answered a phone call. His childhood friend, Grace Langley, was in labor, life hanging by a thread, and she demanded he come immediately. My voice shook with despair. "Vincent! If you drive away now, we'll never be husband and wife!" But he left anyway, not looking back. Grace had always loved seeing him in white, so he threw aside the black suit I had sewn for him with my own hands and changed into white. A year later, Vincent returned. By then, my belly was swollen with life, and I was holding onto another man while hosting a baby shower. And the man wore the black suit Vincent had thrown away. Vincent went mad, claiming he was my husband, but no one believed him.

On the night of our mating ceremony, my mate, Damon, marked another she-wolf right in front of me. He said that if I wanted to be his Luna, I had to accept him having us both. In my past life, I screamed at him, accusing him of defying the Moon Goddess. Pressured by the Elders, he was forced to banish Lyla. She was run down by rogues and fell from a cliff to her death. After that, Damon refused to ever mark me. He even framed me, luring me into the forbidden lands as a pretext to banish me. Then, he hunted me down and killed me himself. I remember my body being picked apart by birds, the agony of it all. But now, I just stared at Damon's cold face, and at the Omega, Lyla, cradled in his arms. Then, I calmly reached up and removed the sacred symbol of our fated bond. "I refuse." And with that, under the shocked gazes of the entire pack, I walked away, heading for the frozen lands of the North. This time, I will make every single wolf who hurt me pay.
