Mon fiancé était le meilleur guérisseur de la meute. Son premier amour était aussi sa petite demi-sœur. Elle s'était autrefois interposée pour le sauver d'une flèche d'argent mortelle. Aujourd'hui, la maladie refait surface : elle est atteinte d'un empoisonnement incurable à l'argent et il ne lui reste plus que 21 jours à vivre. Pour l'accompagner jusqu'au bout, il a discrètement injecté dans mon eau un nouveau sérum de blocage de la mémoire qu'il venait de mettre au point, effaçant de force tous les souvenirs que j'avais de notre relation. Il m'a dit : « Ce ne sont que 21 jours. Quand elle sera partie, je te donnerai l'antidote de mes propres mains, et tu te souviendras de moi. » Durant ces 21 jours, il lui a organisé une grande cérémonie, a dansé avec elle le soir de la Fête de la Lune, et l'a laissée partir en lui jurant : « Dans une autre vie, je serai encore ton compagnon. » 21 jours plus tard, les effets du sérum ont disparu. Il s'est agenouillé sous la pluie, les larmes mêlées de sang, et m'a demandé d'une voix brisée : « Le sérum ne dure que 21 jours… Pourquoi m'as-tu oublié pour toujours ? » Je l'ai seulement regardé avec froideur et j'ai répondu : « Désolée. Vous êtes ? »

Buried deep in the Aster estate was the Heartwood—ancient, sacred, mine. Told my husband, Julian Aster—back when he actually listened—that if it ever fell, I'd die with it. At first, he freaked out.

"I kept your family safe for two hundred years. That's why the Asters thrived. But the Heartwood's gone. Debt's paid. One day left. Whatever happens next? Not my problem."

His eyes followed my little action. “What are you to say, pet?” He asked as he began stroking my head. “Thank you, master. “I replied shyly. At this point, I knew that I was too far gone to stop.
