SYNOPSIS Ich habe mich an einer reinen Alpha-Hockey-Akademie für Jungen eingeschrieben, um den Mann zu zerstören, der meinen Vater gebrochen hat. Ich hätte nie erwartet, dass zwei Alphas versuchen würden, mein Herz zu beanspruchen. Mein Name ist Eliana Vance. Doch hinter den eisernen Toren der Northfell Hockey Academy bin ich Eli. Ein schmächtiger Beta-Junge. Niemand. Eine sorgfältig aufgebaute Lüge, verborgen unter Kompressionsband und illegalen Duftblockern. Mein Vater war ein legendärer Coach, bis Gregory Ashford ihn vernichtete und unsere Familie in den Ruin trieb. Jetzt bin ich hier, um sein Imperium von innen heraus zu Fall zu bringen. Mein Plan war einfach. Unsichtbar bleiben. Trainieren. Überleben. Warten. Dann kam Theo Ashford. Kalt. Gefährlich. Der Alpha-Kapitän, der das Eis beherrscht wie ein König. Er sollte mein Feind sein. Doch seine Aufmerksamkeit haftet an mir, seine Instinkte kommen mir zu nahe. Als er mich an die Bande drängt und behauptet, ich würde nach ihm riechen, beginnt meine Kontrolle zu bröckeln. Und dann ist da Logan Hayes. Warm. Unerschütterlich. Der Star-Stürmer, der hinter meine Maske blickt und beschließt, mich zu beschützen. Bei ihm vergesse ich den Schmerz. Seine Nähe fühlt sich sicher an, fast wie ein Zuhause, das ich längst verloren habe. Doch meine Tarnung hält nicht mehr lange. Die Duftblocker versagen. Mein Geheimnis droht ans Licht zu kommen. Und zwei mächtige Alphas stehen kurz davor, gegeneinander zu kämpfen wegen eines Mädchens, das sie für einen Jungen halten. Der eine will mich kontrollieren. Der andere will mich retten. Aber ich bin nicht hier, um mich zu verlieben. Ich bin hier für Rache. Und wenn alles zerbricht, werde ich entscheiden müssen, was wichtiger ist. Rache. Oder mein Herz.

Nach meiner Wiedergeburt ließ ich die Hexe meine Gefährtenbindung zu Wyatt Galloway auslöschen. Mit einem Zauber, der die Gefährtenbindung übertragen konnte, verpflanzte ich diese Verbindung auf seine Adoptivschwester Jocelyn Latham. Von diesem Tag an würde er glauben, dass Jocelyn seine wahre Gefährtin sei. Noch bevor er etwas merkte, änderte ich den Namen auf der Einladung zur Gefährtenzeremonie. Das maßgeschneiderte, luxuriöse Kleid, das über ein halbes Jahr angefertigt worden war, überreichte ich Jocelyn mit beiden Händen. Wyatt und Jocelyn reisten in den Süden, um das Gebiet zu inspizieren. Im Namen des Alphas beanspruchte er den Platz der Rudels-Luna für Jocelyn und schrieb ihr ein Empfehlungsschreiben für die Emory-Universität in der Menschenwelt. Ich aber kehrte mich ab und begann mein Studium an der Harvard-Universität. In meinem früheren Leben hatten wir zwanzig Jahre zusammengelebt. Am Ende kniete er vor mir und flehte mich an, die Gefährtenmarkierung zu löschen, nur um nach dem Tod mit Jocelyn zusammen bestattet zu werden. Mit diesem neuen Leben werde ich nie wieder meine Zukunft für jemanden opfern. Dieses Mal werde ich an eine Spitzenuniversität gehen, mein eigener Stolz werden und mich nie wieder nach der Vergangenheit umschauen.
