Partner: Victoria Winston Children: Jack Hudson, Sophia Hudson. I froze. The HR manager said the woman was his legally wedded wife and the heiress to the largest hotel chain on the East Coast. Their children were already seven years old. It felt like my world was crumbling down around me. If she was his wife, what was I? His mistress of five years? His friend with benefits? Even more absurdly, I was now pregnant with his child. A child who would never be acknowledged by their father. An illegitimate child. I nodded dazedly. My whole body felt weak. The man I considered my husband was never mine. Even after death, his gravestone would not have my name!

Ngunit sa likod ng kanyang kaligayahan ay may takot—alam niyang ang puso ni Allen ay para kay Victoria, ang babaeng hindi niya kayang kalimutan. Sa kabila nito, umaasa si Isabel na magbabago ang lahat dahil sa kanilang anak. Ngunit naglaho ang kanyang pag-asa nang mangyari ang isang malagim na aksidente. Malubhang nasugatan si Isabel at desperadong nakiusap kay Allen na iligtas ang kanilang anak. Subalit, tinalikuran siya ni Allen at pinili si Victoria, iniwan si Isabel sa kanyang sariling kapalaran. Habang lumalayo si Allen, parang pinipiga ang puso ni Isabel sa sakit. Kumalat ang balita sa Laoag tungkol kay Allen Alvarez, isang lalaking lumubog sa matinding pagsisisi. Ang pangalan ni Isabel Fajardo-Alvarez ay naging simbolo ng hindi maipaliwanag na kalungkutan at pighati, at walang sinuman ang naglakas-loob na banggitin ito sa harap ni Allen.

Mabait si Luis at inalagaan si Isabel, tinuring ding parang sariling anak ang bata. Sa paglipas ng panahon, ipinakilala ni Luis si Isabel sa kanilang business partners, kasama ang pamilya nina Allen. Sa gitna ng isang masayang pagtitipon, biglang nagwala si Allen, lumuhod sa harap ni Isabel, ang kanyang mga mata’y pulang-pula at puno ng pighati. "Isabel, comeback to me... I’m begging for your forgiveness" aniya, humihingi ng kapatawaran, umaasang maibabalik pa ang dati nilang pagsasama. Mapatawad kaya siya ni Isabel o mananatili nalang alaala ang kanilang pagsasama?

Back in the day, in the legal world, Finn Cross and I were the top dogs. Untouchable. He ran New York, a king in criminal defense, never lost a case. I held down Boston, crushing it in civil court. People in the biz used to say it was a good thing we weren't in the same city. If we were, we’d have gone head-to-head, and it was anyone's guess who'd come out on top. But they never would've guessed. Three years ago, I, Victoria Sterling, quietly married Finn Cross. And just like that, the legend of "Vicky" was locked away. I was willing to leave my career behind, to be the quiet, supportive woman behind the great man. I made his coffee, went with him to all sorts of events, and left a light on for him when he came home late. But when Elena, the one he’d always carried a torch for, showed up again, I couldn't keep up this charade anymore.

Ich verbrachte sechs Monate und gab über 20.000 Euro damit aus, einen Familienurlaub zu planen. Als jedoch Alexanders Jugendliebe Victoria von unserer Reise hörte, flehte sie darum, sich uns anzuschließen. Alexander zögerte nicht. Er stornierte meinen Platz im geschützten Konvoi und gab ihn stattdessen ihr. Er zwang mich, allein durch das tödliche Schattenrudel-Territorium zu reisen – eine sechsunddreißigstündige Reise, bei der im letzten Monat drei Wölfe gestorben waren.
