Orang itu mengamatiku dari ujung kepala sampai ujung kaki, lalu akhirnya memfokuskan pandangannya pada dokumen di tanganku sebelum mencibir, "Kamu sudah mau jilat Bu Arabella di hari pertama kerja? Apa kamu bahkan nggak bercermin?" Pada saat ini, aku baru menyadari bahwa dia menganggapku sebagai saingan asmaranya. Namun, kakakku juga tidak pernah memberitahuku bahwa dia memiliki pacar. Sebelum aku bisa menjelaskan, sebuah tamparan keras sudah mendarat di wajahku. "Cuma aku yang boleh jadi asisten Bu Arabella! Jangan harap kamu bisa jadi pacarnya!" Dia menjambak rambutku dan menyiramkan teh panas ke wajahku. "Kamu masih begitu muda, tapi malah mau hidup dengan andalkan perempuan dan merayu wanita kaya? Hari ini, aku akan gantikan orang tuamu beri kamu pelajaran!" Aku meringkuk di lantai dan masih mati-matian melindungi map dokumen dengan tubuhku. Tindakan itu benar-benar membuatnya marah. Dia merebut map itu dan merobeknya hingga hancur di depan seluruh karyawan perusahaan.

The night of my first shift at eighteen, my two older brothers brought home a twelve-year-old orphaned Omega. My alpha brother seized the rare healing herb I'd spent all my savings on—herbs meant to ease my first transformation—and gave them to her instead. "You're strong enough," he growled. "You don't need such precious herbs." My beta brother snarled with fury, pointing toward the door. "Get out! Don't come back!" I said nothing more, just grabbed my packed bag and left. They assumed I was merely throwing a tantrum, that I'd return in a few days. My brothers, finally free of my presence, took the orphan girl on an international vacation to the Caribbean islands I'd always dreamed of visiting. Many days later, when they returned to the pack, they were shocked to discover I'd accepted an offer from the neighboring pack's Head Healer. The position required fifteen years of isolated herbal research. I could never return home. That night, they fell apart.

After getting reborn, the first thing Holly Webster does is to spend five billion dollars on an island that's completely alienated from the rest of the world. The employee in charge of the procedures is flabbergasted, to say the least. After all, the particular island isn't well-known on the world map at all. Not only do people not know about its existence, but it's also excluded from the rest of the world. Not even the GPS navigation can form a route leading to it. "Are you sure you want to buy this island, Ms. Webster? If you choose to move onto this island and live there, it'll be difficult for you to keep in touch with the outside world." Holly nods immediately, her tone taking on a relieved edge. "That's exactly what I want. I don't want anyone to get in contact with me."
