Three year after my death, my former mate returned— not to mourn me, but to make use of me one last time. It was the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year—the night when wolves whispered to the dead. “Where’s Mira Thorne?” Rowan demanded as he strode downstairs into the tavern beneath the den. “Her lived here—Gavin’s sister. I need to find her.” Dorian, the tavern keeper, glanced up slowly. “Mira?” he repeated, wiping his hands on a cloth. “She’s gone, Doctor. Died three winters ago. Same night the Moon rose red.” Rowan’s brows knit. “Dead? That’s impossible. There’s no record.” Dorian’s voice softened. “The family from that healing case—remember them? They found her in the alley behind this inn. Tore her apart before dawn. The healers couldn’t even retrieve her wolf.” Rowan froze, a flicker of disbelief passing across his face before irritation took over. “No. She’s pretending. She’s doing this to make me feel guilty.” he said sharply. “She’s hiding. She always was weak. Tell her if her doesn’t come out within three days, I’ll stop sending money for brother’s treatment.” He turned abruptly and left, the tavern door slamming behind him. Dorian sighed after him., shaking his head. “brother? Her brother died before the healers even arrived… there was never any money for treatment.” The silence that followed was heavier than snow. Dorian watched the falling snow and murmured to the empty air, “No one pretends death, Doctor. Not when they’ve already lost everything.”

She doesn't understand why she and her eleven younger sisters were cursed to dance each night for the Underground King. But when her mother's diary is found, a few things fall into place. He is surprised when the king offers half his kingdom to the man that can solve the curse. What kind of father does that? But as they come together to solve the curse, they fall in love and fall fast. Leading to the question, can they solve the curse before it is too late, or will he lose her forever?

My mate bond with Alpha Ronan of the Blackthorne Pack had failed thirty-two times. I thought the Moon Goddess did not bless us. I thought if I endured a little longer, loved him a little harder, the next time would finally work. Until the thirty-third rite. Then the fire swallowed me whole. When I woke in the healers’ hall, my body was broken, my Moonborn Core was damaged. Only then did I hear Ronan speaking to his Beta outside the door. “If you love Selene that much, then sever the claim with Elara. The Blackthorne Pack can silence any rumor. Why keep staging accidents?” “She almost died,” his Beta said. “Ten years ago, the Alpha of Nightvale and his mate died saving me. This bond is how I repay that debt.” “I never wanted Nightvale’s bloodline chained to mine.” “The woman I love is Selene.” That was when I finally understood. The Moon Goddess had never rejected us. Ronan had. He saw my parents’ sacrifice as a chain around his neck. He saw Nightvale’s Moonborn bloodline as a cage built to trap him. And he would never know— the fire he arranged had already taken the child I carried. The true black-core heir Blackthorne had waited generations for. If Ronan hated this bond so much, I would give him what he wanted. I would sever the claim myself.

Tubuh kami saling terjerat di dalam mobil. Suamiku terus bergerak di dalam tubuh bagian bawahku, bibirnya mencium dadaku, lalu dering ponsel tiba-tiba menyadarkanku dari lamunan kami yang memabukkan. Ariel pun menjawab tanpa ragu. Itu salah satu teman terdekatnya dari dunia medis, berbicara dalam Bahasa Garnia. “Ketua.” Suara itu berkata dengan santai, “Selingkuhanmu sudah hamil dua bulan. Kau mau gimana?” Ariel tidak berhenti. Nada suaranya tetap tenang. “Merlin nggak bisa punya anak,” jawabnya. “Aku akan biarkan Sintia mengandung bayi itu sampai lahir, lalu mengadopsinya sebagai anakku sendiri. Itu akan mengamankan posisi pewaris. Ini rahasia kita berdua.” Sesuatu di dalam diriku membeku. Dia lupa satu hal .... Aku mengambil jurusan Bahasa Garnia. Bahkan, dia mempelajari bahasa itu hanya untuk memenangkan hatiku. Tapi aku tidak berteriak. Aku tidak mengonfrontasinya. Sebaliknya, aku tersenyum, tetap diam, dan terus berperan sebagai istri yang sempurna. Kemudian, aku menyelipkan surat cerai ke dalam kontrak pembelian properti dan melihat suamiku menandatangani tanpa membacanya terlebih dahulu. Setelah itu aku diam-diam mendaftarkan identitas baru. Selama tiga hari berikutnya, ketidakhadirannya, dan pesan-pesan mengejek dari wanita itu, menghapus harapan terakhir yang kumiliki tentang cinta. Ketika identitas baruku aktif, aku pergi tanpa menoleh ke belakang. Membawa serta anak di dalam rahimku. Dan, menghilang dari dunianya selamanya ....

Au cours de ma cinquième année d'amour pour Gabriel, il a hérité du titre de Seigneur Vampire de son défunt frère — ainsi que de la veuve de son frère, Chloe, l'ancienne Reine de Sang, et, par le sang et la loi, elle est ma parenté par alliance. Chaque fois qu'il revenait de sa chambre, Gabriel me tenait doucement et chuchotait, « Isabella, Chloe n'est que ma conjointe choisie. Une fois qu'elle aura porté et donné naissance au descendant du Clan des Crocs-de-Flamme, je me lierai à toi par un Lien de Sang. » Il a dit que c'était la seule condition que sa famille avait exigée pour qu'il monte en tant que Seigneur Vampire. Pendant les six mois qui ont suivi notre retour, il a répondu à son appel une centaine de fois. Au début, une fois par mois. Puis une fois par semaine. Et finalement, chaque nuit. La centième nuit où je suis restée éveillée à l'attendre, Chloe a enfin conçu. La nouvelle est arrivée avec une autre annonce— Gabriel et Chloe seraient bientôt liés par le Sang. Mon fils a levé les yeux vers moi, confus et innocent. « Maman... n'ont-ils pas dit que Papa formerait un Lien de Sang avec la Reine de Sang qu'il aime ? Pourquoi n'est-il pas encore venu nous ramener à la maison ? » « Parce que, » ai-je dit doucement, passant ma main dans ses cheveux, « la Reine de Sang qu'il aime n'a jamais été ta mère. » « Mais ce n'est pas grave », ai-je ajouté. « Je te ramènerai chez nous. Notre propre maison. » Ce que Gabriel n'avait jamais compris, c'était que — en tant que fille unique d'un Roi Vampire régnant, je ne m'étais jamais souciée du titre de Reine de Sang du Clan des Crocs-de-Flamme.
