Due to my outstanding work performance, my boss grants me special permission to have flexible working hours. I am out until very late last night meeting a client, and I have only been asleep for a while when a call from my colleague wakes me up. "It's already 9:30 am! Why are you late again today?" I explain to her patiently that I worked overtime last night to finalize things with a client and have them sign the contract, so I won't be going into the office in the morning. My colleague snickers. "You'd better not think that you can skip work whenever you like just because you've achieved top sales in our department. "Today is our boss' son, Mr. Hammond's first day in the office. He might just tell you to pack your things and leave if you were to upset him in any way!" Despite the splitting headache I'm having, I try to recall it in my head. Alex Hammond, the man she's just mentioned, sounds very much like that fiance of mine, who desperately wants to tie the knot with me.

Por centésima vez, mi Alfa y compañero, Ryker, usó su voz de mando sobre mí, amenazando con rechazar nuestro vínculo si no me sacrificaba por mi hermana gemela, Ivy. No lloré ni protesté. Simplemente firmé los papeles de rechazo del vínculo de compañeros. Le entregué a mi hermana al Alfa que había amado durante diez años. Pocos días después, Ivy armó un escándalo en el Banquete de la Alianza de Manadas, humillando a la hija del Alfa de Silvermoon. Una vez más, di un paso al frente para ocupar su lugar, soportando el dolor de una marca de plata desfigurante. Más tarde, cuando exigieron que probara la seguridad del Ritual de Regeneración del Espíritu Lobo con mi propio cuerpo por el bien de mi hermana, acepté con una sonrisa. Mis padres, ambos Betas, me dijeron con los ojos enrojecidos, que finalmente estaba siendo la hermana mayor que se suponía que debía ser. Incluso Ryker, que siempre había sido tan distante conmigo, se detuvo ante la celda. Acarició suavemente mi mejilla por primera vez en mucho tiempo y dijo en voz baja: —Harper, no tengas miedo. Tan pronto como termine la prueba, te llevaré a ver las auroras al Lago de la Diosa de la Luna. Pero él no sabía que, independientemente del resultado de la prueba, no volvería a verme jamás. Mi espíritu de loba ya se estaba desvaneciendo. Nada podía salvarme. Esta vez, cuando cerrara los ojos, sería para siempre.
