I don't break down in tears, nor do I throw a tantrum. In fact, I even shoot a smile at the young lady who's with Wilson. "Don't worry. I'll keep this a secret."

"The woman from earlier is au naturale. Besides, she's all clean and pure, so you have nothing to worry about." I lower my gaze and nod gently in agreement. But I don't plan on telling Wilson that the so-called au naturale woman was still a young man last week.

C'était notre septième anniversaire de lien. Pourtant, Xavier Martin, l'Alpha qui contrôlait tout, a ramené à la maison sa maîtresse enceinte. Depuis sept ans, il me vouait un culte. Il baisait ma main devant tout le monde en disant que j'étais sa lune, la seule Luna de sa vie. Mais aujourd'hui, sa main reposait sur le ventre d'une autre louve, comme pour exhiber un miracle. « Elle porte mon premier petit. Tu as le pouvoir de la Déesse Lune. Je veux que tu la bénisses. De plus, elle fait des cauchemars durant sa grossesse, alors elle prendra la chambre principale. » Je suis restée figée, croyant avoir mal entendu. « Est-ce une plaisanterie ? C'est ma chambre ! » Il a levé les yeux, le ton chargé d'avertissement. « À partir d'aujourd'hui, c'est la sienne. » La colère a manqué de me faire rire. Ma voix tremblait, mais elle était claire. « Tu as mis enceinte une louve Oméga de bas étage et tu la ramènes dans notre maison ? Xavier Martin, tu as complètement perdu la raison ! » « Je ne le répéterai pas une troisième fois. Libère la chambre maintenant. » Son aura est devenue glaciale en un instant. Sa pression d'Alpha m'a frappée de plein fouet, faisant gémir ma louve en moi. Il a cru que j'allais me soumettre docilement, mais il ignorait que j'avais déjà fait mes valises il y a des semaines, quand j'avais reçu la vidéo de son adultère. Alors que je marchais vers la porte d'entrée, je l'ai entendu ricaner derrière moi : « Laisse-la faire sa crise. Elle reviendra rampante dans moins de trois jours. » Les membres de la meute ont ricané dans mon dos, pariant déjà sur le nombre de jours que je tiendrais cette fois. Cependant, la voiture privée envoyée me chercher attendait déjà devant la porte. Cette fois, je rompais définitivement avec lui.

King Arthur led his troops together with his two other sons when Ren Lancaster ambushed the kingdom's village. Ophelia wanted to fight with them but she was pregnant at the moment and her husband, Crown Prince Demitri, forbid her to go.

Ophelia was devastated when she heard the news and planned for revenge. But before she could make a move, Ren attacked the palace, catching her off guard. The Queen died and so as Ophelia's unborn child. Ophelia fought with Ren and he was badly injured but managed to escape after he sealed Ophelia's dragon.

On her coronation, she promised she'd achieved these three things no matter what: awaken the two princes and her dragon, resurrect Demitri, and kill Ren Lancaster.
