On the fifth year of my marriage with Stefano Calderone, his older brother, Don Giovanni Calderone, sacrificed himself to protect him during an ambush. When Stefano inherited Giovanni's position as the next Don, he also inherited Giovanni's widowed wife, Camilla Bianchi. Every night, after leaving Camilla's room, he'd embrace me and say, "Alessandro, you're my actual lover. Once Camilla gets pregnant, I'll register our marriage once again and ensure that you and our son will have proper positions in the Calderone family." For the next six months, he slept with Camilla 200 times in a row. At first, he'd only spend one night with her per week. But gradually, it shifted into a regular schedule of nightly visits in her room. After their 201st coupling, the news of Camilla being pregnant gets spread throughout the villa. Soon after, news of Stefano and Camilla getting married breaks out. My son, Niccolo Calderone, grips the hem of my clothes while asking me innocently, "Mommy, didn't Daddy tell us that he'd give us a home? Why is he marrying another woman, then?" I just ruffle his hair in return. "Daddy no longer belongs to us. But it's okay, Niccolo. Mommy will take you back to our real home." Stefano will never find out that I'm not as alone as he thinks in this world. The truth is, I'm the principessa of another powerful mafia family in Sirelia. I never wanted the position of the Calderones' Donna, to begin with.

« Sors-moi cette ordure. Et que le feu nettoie son passage. » La sentence est tombée de ses lèvres, ces mêmes lèvres qui, quelques heures plus tôt, me juraient un amour éternel. Mon âme sœur. Mon destin. Mon bourreau. En une nuit, il a tout pris : mon innocence, mon titre d'héritière de la meute, ma dignité. Après m'avoir poignardée, il a voulu me réduire en cendres. Fin de l'histoire ? Non. C'est là que la vraie tragédie commence. Ma chute m'a jetée directement dans la gueule du loup. Littéralement. Je suis devenue la propriété du Roi Lycan. On le dit fou. On chuchote qu'il a perdu la raison il y a des lunes. On le craint plus que la peste, plus que la mort elle-même. Il incarne le froid, l'impitoyable, la force brute. Son regard seul promet la souffrance. Et ce monstre prétend que je lui appartiens. Sa bête, cette chose sombre qui habite en lui, m'a choisie. Elle me désire avec une obsession qui glace le sang. Il est décidé à me plier à sa volonté, même si cela doit signifier me briser os par os, briser ce qui reste de mon âme. Maintenant, esclave dans son palais de ténèbres, je dois trouver la force de lui résister. Je suis prise au piège de son jeu pervers, dominée par ses griffes sombres. Mais chaque fois qu'il me regarde, je vois autre chose que de la cruauté dans ses yeux. Je vois une reconnaissance. Une connexion. Et c'est cela, le plus terrifiant : comment lutter contre un homme qui, au plus profond de sa folie, voit en moi bien plus qu'une captive ? Comment nier ce lien primal qui, malgré la haine et la peur, commence doucement, inexorablement, à nous unir ?
