Les ennemis des parents de ma sœur adoptive m'ont prise pour elle et m'ont enlevée. Avant que les voyous ne m'aient tuée, ils m'ont accordé trois appels pour demander de l'aide. Si quelqu'un acceptait de me donner trois cents euros, je pourrais vivre. Pour le premier appel, j'ai composé le numéro de mon père. Mon père n'a écouté aucun mot que j'ai dit. Il a immédiatement lâché un torrent d'injures. « Où es-tu ? Reviens à la maison tout de suite pour l'anniversaire de ta sœur ! » Pour le deuxième appel, j'ai appelé mon frère. Mon frère a écouté en silence ma supplication, puis il a raccroché avec un reniflement glacé. « Tu n'es jamais là quand la meute a besoin de toi. Qui va croire à cette comédie maintenant ? » Pour le troisième appel, j'ai appelé mon fiancé. Il n'a même pas répondu. Quand j'ai rappelé, il m'a bloquée. Le loup renégat a ri de moi. « On dirait qu'être la fille aînée de la famille des Thomas ne signifie pas grand-chose, hein ? » Après qu'il m'a torturée à mort, il a fourré mon corps dans une valise et l'a jetée dans la rivière.

I push through my Gamma warrior training ahead of schedule just to get back to the pack sooner. All I want is to stand beside my Alpha, Kyle Faucher, and finally complete our mate-bonding ceremony. But when I step into our house, scarred and feeling hopeful, I see 100 old boarding passes to the Darkmoon pack littering the floor. That pack is only a mile from my training grounds. Kyle's been that close for two years, and still, he never came. I sprint to the place where we were supposed to have our mate-bonding ceremony, clinging to the desperate hope that there's an explanation. But the moment I burst through the doors, I stopped cold. Kyle is down on one knee, dressed in a tailored suit, his eyes locked on someone with a softness I've never seen in him before. Standing across from him, smiling through her tears, is my stepsister, Vivian Blackwell. "Vivian, I haven't completed the mate-bonding ceremony with Serene. Say the word, and I'll reject her and mark you right now." At that moment, the world goes still, and I even forgot how to breathe. So this is what he's been doing while I was gone, chasing the woman he never let go of. Meanwhile, I spent those two years giving everything I had, trying to become someone worthy of standing by his side. I don't ask why or shed a tear. I just turn around and walk away. If she's what he wants, then so be it. The mate-bonding ceremony I dreamed of will be theirs instead. But the second I'm gone, he loses it and sends every warrior looking for me.
