Introduction

Il primo amore.

Arrivano in tutte le forme e dimensioni. Possono essere bellissimi o dolorosi e tutto ciò che sta nel mezzo.

Sawyer e io eravamo migliori amici una volta, fino a quando lui ha seguito il suo sogno e ha lasciato la sua vecchia vita alle spalle. Compresa me. Ho sperato che la vita non ci avrebbe separati, ma come accade con la maggior parte dei primi amori, succede e presto lui diventa un estraneo per me. Quando finalmente trovo il coraggio di lasciarlo andare e iniziare la mia nuova vita, lui ricompare.

La sua vita è appesa a un filo e questa è la sua ultima possibilità di ottenere ciò per cui ha lavorato così duramente. Ora pensa che questo mi includa. È pronto a riparare ciò che abbiamo perso, ma io non sono interessata a dare seconde possibilità. Purtroppo non sono mai stata brava a resistergli, e anche dopo il nostro tempo separati le cose non sembrano essere cambiate.

Beh, non è vero. Molto sta per cambiare. Molto più di quanto avremmo potuto immaginare, ma tutto è iniziato la prima volta che ho trovato l'amore.

Ora, è il momento di scoprire tutto ciò che viene dopo.

Chapter 1

Preparare tutto per andare all'università si sta rivelando più emozionante di quanto mi aspettassi. Tre mesi fa sono tornata dall'Ecuador e non mi sentivo così emozionata a vivere lì per l'ultimo anno come mi sento ora. Come è possibile?

“Bryn!” Sento una voce familiare chiamare dal piano di sotto seguita dal suono di un bambino che piange. “Accidenti! Va bene Milly, so che zia B è qui da qualche parte.”

Esco dalla mia stanza e mi fermo in cima alle scale proprio mentre mia sorella inizia a salire. “Oh, grazie al cielo! Puoi parlare con tua nipote? È stata un vero terremoto tutta la mattina.”

Mi porge la creaturina fastidiosa, e io accetto il dolce fagottino. “Ciao tesoro! Hai dato del filo da torcere alla tua mamma?”

La mia nipotina mi sorride senza denti e afferra una manciata dei miei capelli ricci tirandoli. Ormai ci sono così abituata che quasi non ci faccio caso, ma quando cerca di infilare i capelli in bocca, devo intervenire. Mi giro e porto la piccola Milly nella mia stanza attualmente affollata di scatoloni. I miei genitori insistevano che dovessi lasciare la mia stanza così com'è, ma voglio dar loro la possibilità di usarla come camera degli ospiti mentre sono all'università per i prossimi anni. Tornerò per le vacanze ma starò accanto a Poppy e Zac in quelle occasioni. Non riesco a credere che abbiano comprato la casa, visto che è dove Zac è cresciuto, ma non potevano sopportare di venderla quando sua madre si è trasferita con il suo nuovo marito. Così, Zac ha comprato la casa e ha chiesto a Poppy di sposarlo sulla porta dove si sedevano insieme da bambini un anno dopo.

C'è molta storia in quella casa, quindi sono silenziosamente felice che non sia andata a un'altra famiglia.

Poppy entra nella mia stanza e si lascia cadere sul mio letto senza preoccuparsi che ci sia un mucchio di vestiti sotto di lei. “Mia figlia mi odia.” Borbotta prima di emettere un lamento patetico.

“Non è vero Poppy! Probabilmente sta mettendo i dentini o qualcosa del genere.” Cinguetto alla mia nipotina facendola ridere adorabilmente.

“Sì, certo, deve essere così eppure smette di piangere non appena la prendi tu. Come può amarti di più quando sei stata fuori dal paese per i primi tre mesi della sua vita? Ti odio. Perché mi hai lasciata in questo momento cruciale?” Mia sorella... sempre così drammatica.

“Starai bene, inoltre posso sempre tornare se le cose si mettono male. Sai che non ti lascerei affrontare tutto da sola.”

Sospira e si siede. “No. Meriti di avere una vita. È solo... mi mancherai.”

“Anche tu mi mancherai, sorellina.” Le avvolgo un braccio attorno e lei è pronta ad abbracciarmi.

Siamo sempre state molto vicine, e mi uccide ogni volta che devo partire, ma ho già rimandato l'università per fare volontariato come assistente infermiera in Ecuador. Avevo bisogno di esperienza per i crediti di studio sul campo e volevo farlo presto. Inoltre, non ero pronta a essere qui quando tutto è successo. Polly deve vedere l'espressione sul mio viso perché mi prende la mano e la stringe dolcemente.

“Non hai sentito niente da lui?” Mi chiede.

Non posso fare a meno di ridere all'idea. “No. Perché dovrei? Si è rifatto una vita, quindi devo fare lo stesso. Saremo sempre parte della vita dell'altro a causa tua e di Zac, ma mai come eravamo prima.”

“Ha passato molto B, forse ha bisogno di più tempo.” Offre in sua difesa.

“Ha avuto tutto il tempo. Cinque anni per essere esatti e ancora non mi ha chiamato né mandato un messaggio. Pensavo che dopo il suo infortunio mi avrebbe contattato e supplicato di venire a prendermi cura di lui come avevamo sempre pianificato, ma niente. Non potevo restare.”

“Lo so. Zac dice che le cose non stanno andando bene. Non è sicuro che Sawyer verrà firmato per come stanno andando le cose.” Scuote la testa e lascia uscire un sospiro deluso. “Non riesco a credere che si arrenderebbe dopo tutto quello che ha fatto per arrivare fin qui.”

Il fratello di Zac, Sawyer, era il mio migliore amico. Quando la loro famiglia si trasferì dopo che il loro padre se ne andò, vidi Sawyer una volta e capii subito che saremmo diventati amici. Era un ragazzino scontroso e imbronciato e io ero il raggio di sole che avrebbe spezzato tutta la sua cupa malinconia. Non che non avesse il diritto di odiare il mondo dopo che suo padre se ne era andato, aveva solo sette anni all'epoca. Un anno più grande di me.

Il giorno in cui si trasferirono, andai da loro con un piatto di cupcake vegani e gli dissi che ero la sua nuova amica. Il maleducato mi chiuse la porta in faccia. Così, Poppy venne con me per dirgliene quattro, ma fu Zac ad aprire la porta. Fu amore a prima vista per loro, e da allora sono inseparabili. Tutti sapevano che Poppy era la ragazza di Zac anche quando avevano solo nove anni. Sawyer, invece, non voleva parlare con nessuno.

E io cosa feci? Non mi arresi. Ogni giorno a pranzo gli preparavo un piccolo dolcetto e mi sedevo al suo tavolo a parlargli senza sosta. Mi lanciava qualche sguardo infastidito ma non si alzava mai e non se ne andava. Pian piano si ammorbidì nei miei confronti, e da lì fu tutto in discesa. Diventammo migliori amici e gli unici amici l'uno dell'altra per anni. Fino a quando non iniziò il primo anno di liceo e io rimasi a finire la scuola media da sola.

Era sempre stato bravo a pattinare e, grazie al freddo che faceva qui, costruivamo una pista di pattinaggio personale nel nostro cortile per poter pattinare tutti insieme. Sawyer era fantastico e presto si appassionò all'hockey, così quando arrivarono le selezioni per la squadra del liceo, partecipò e ne uscì come giocatore.

All'inizio non cambiò molto, a parte il fatto che non potevo più sedermi con lui a pranzo. Tornava a casa pieno di lividi e frustrato perché era un perfezionista e non gli piaceva mai come giocava o si allenava. Mi sedevo accanto a lui sul suo letto e lo medicavo mentre mi sfogava tutte le sue frustrazioni. Medicarlo era sempre stato il mio compito e questo mi spinse a voler studiare medicina sportiva e fisioterapia. Il nostro piano era che Sawyer venisse selezionato da una squadra e io mi sarei candidata per lavorare con la stessa squadra.

Quel piano iniziò a svanire lentamente man mano che diventava più impegnato. Presto iniziò a portare i compagni di squadra a casa sua, dove facevano baldoria quando sua madre non c'era. I ragazzi non volevano che io stessì intorno, quindi aspettavo che se ne andassero per poter stare con Sawyer. Poi iniziò a inventare scuse per non uscire con me, e alla fine mi escluse completamente. A scuola mi ignorava e si presentava a casa mia solo per farsi medicare perché, secondo lui, ero la migliore.

Nella mia ingenuità accettavo le briciole che mi gettava, ma ero infelice. Così, quando Sawyer venne selezionato per un'università fantastica, non mi preoccupai di dirgli addio. Lo guardai dalla finestra mentre saliva in macchina e sperai che si voltasse a cercarmi, ma non lo fece. Capì allora che avevo perso il mio amico per sempre. Decisi quindi di andare avanti e iniziare il mio percorso per realizzare i miei sogni. Volevo ancora studiare medicina sportiva, ma decisi che lo avrei fatto perché lo amavo e non perché volevo pateticamente stare con Sawyer per sempre.

Quando mi fu offerta l'opportunità di fare uno stage, la colsi al volo e non mi voltai indietro. Circa sei mesi dopo l'inizio del mio anno di tirocinio in Ecuador ricevetti una chiamata da Poppy in lacrime. Mi disse che Sawyer si era fatto male, e non era una cosa da poco. Doveva essere una delle prime scelte del draft, ma improvvisamente si era infortunato e fu messo in panchina. Tutti i suoi sogni stavano andando in fumo e io ero a migliaia di chilometri di distanza.

Non sapevo cosa fare, ma non potevo lasciarlo affrontare tutto da solo, così lo chiamai. Non rispose mai né mi contattò. Alla fine dovetti arrendermi e smettere di preoccuparmi per qualcuno che non mi voleva nella sua vita. Ora sto andando avanti con la prossima tappa del mio viaggio e cerco di non pensare al cretino di giocatore di hockey che un tempo chiamavo amico.

One Night. One Mistake. One Lifetime of Consequences.

I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.

My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.

But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.

In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.

"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.

"Who the fuck is Jason?"

My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.

I ran away for my life!

But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!

They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.

Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”

There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.
