La nuit de ma première transformation, à dix-huit ans, mes deux frères aînés ont emmené à la maison une Oméga orpheline de douze ans. Mon frère Alpha s'est emparé de la précieuse herbe médicinale pour laquelle j'avais dépensé toutes mes économies : des herbes censées apaiser la douleur de ma première transformation, et les lui a données à elle, à la place. « Tu es assez forte, » a-t-il grogné, « tu n'as pas besoin d'herbes aussi précieuses. » Mon frère Bêta a rugi de colère, en pointant la porte du doigt. « Dehors ! Et ne reviens pas ! » Sans un mot, j'ai pris mon sac, déjà prêt, et je suis partie. Ils pensaient que je faisais juste un caprice, que je reviendrais au bout de quelques jours. Libérés de ma présence, mes frères ont emmené la petite orpheline en vacances à l'étranger, sur les îles des Caraïbes : celles dont j'avais toujours rêvé. De nombreux jours plus tard, lorsqu'ils sont revenus à la meute, ils ont été stupéfaits d'apprendre que j'avais accepté un poste du Chef Guérisseur de la meute voisine. Le poste exigeait quinze années de recherches isolées sur les plantes médicinales. Je ne pouvais plus jamais rentrer chez moi. Cette nuit-là, ils se sont effondrés.

Ma meilleure amie, Ada, avait pitié de mes huit années de crush pour Théo. Alors, lorsque nos loups se sont reconnus comme compagnons, Ada m'a simplement donné une herbe qui amplifie les phéromones et m'a envoyée dans le lit de Théo. Enivré par mon odeur, Théo m'a prise comme un fou. Quand je me suis réveillée, il a accepté froidement d'organiser la cérémonie de marquage. Mais peu après, Théo s'est mis à visiter souvent les meutes européennes et est resté absent pendant cinq ans. J'ai élevé seule notre fils, Alex, en l'attendant dans la meute. Mais il n'est jamais rentré, se contentant de me dire qu'il n'aimait pas les louveteaux. Jusqu'au jour de l'anniversaire d'Alex. J'ai vu une vidéo dans laquelle quelqu'un demandait à Théo : « Quel a été ton moment le plus heureux ? » Il a répondu avec désinvolture : « La semaine dernière, en Europe. Après avoir endormi Marcus, j'ai emmené Claire sur la table de la salle à manger. » Au milieu des sifflements et des rires, j'ai senti mes mains et mes pieds devenir glacés. Claire, c'était son ex-petite amie. Marcus, c'était le fils de Claire. On disait qu'il vivait avec eux depuis cinq ans, en Europe. Tout était donc vrai. Le cœur brisé, j'ai soumis une demande de rupture de lien d'âme au Conseil des Alphas, et j'ai quitté l'Amérique du Nord avec mon fils, effaçant notre enregistrement de meute.

Five years ago, Damon Thorne publicly severed the mate bond and personally sent Elara Rivers to prison. On the day of her release, Damon grabbed Elara at the hospital: "Your sister Isabella has been in a car accident and needs a kidney transplant, so give her your kidney." Elara was born with a congenital heart disease, and the kidney donation would have cost her life. She refused, but he used every means to force her. On the day of the surgery, her heart suddenly stopped, and the rescue efforts were ineffective. Reportedly, the man who desperately wished for Elara's death cried at her grave day and night. Later, he saw her again, and she had already married The Alpha King Lucian (also Damon's half-brother), holding a five-year-old child, and had become Lucian's cherished and adored young wife. Damon: "I know I was wrong, please come back to me." Lucian :"Get out of here, she is my one and only Luna."

Anastasia Tomes (Ana) is an abandoned orphan she-wolf who endures a lifetime of physical, mental, psychological and medical abuse at the hands of Janice, the housemother of the orphanage she is raised in, and Kaira, a witch who is working with the Janice. On her 18th birthday, she is not only kicked out of the Moon Valley Orphanage, but she also meets, and is subsequently rejected by, her destined mate. Ana never shifted and began to believe that she was wolf-less, until after she has left the orphanage. She was kept drugged with wolfsbane, Bella donna and other herbal concoctions, as well as liquid silver which all keep her from developing normally. Ana has been given injections throughout her life and was told it was a medical procedure to keep her alive. These cocktails of toxins caused her to have poor eyesight and extremely low metabolism, causing weight problems, both anomalies of werewolves. Ana meets her wolf, Scarlett, on her birthday after she leaves the orphanage. Scarlett helps her through as she experiences a pattern of rejections: from her parents to her destined mate. Although Ana feels that her life is worthless and that she is unlovable, she feels that she needs to go on a fact-finding journey to find out who she is, what her truths are and what her contribution to the world is. In her travels, she finds that there are unsavory people who will do whatever they can to keep her from her destiny, a destiny she has yet to realize. Will Ana be able to unravel the web of deceit whe has believed all her live, realize her potential and become the she-wolf she was destined to or will she tuck tail and run to keep her sanity and life intact?
