Introduction

Tras ser abandonada en la frontera del territorio de la manada de Blue River, Rain se cría en el orfanato como bruja, donde se convierte en la mejor amiga de Jessica Tompson, una mujer lobo huérfana de la manada. Tras el decimoséptimo cumpleaños de Jessica, Jessica le dice a Rain que deben escapar de la manada para salvar a Rain de un destino horrible. Pero antes de que puedan irse, Odett, una cachorra rebelde de cinco años, entra en sus vidas y deciden llevársela con ellos para asegurarse de que no corra la misma suerte que Rain. Cuando se van, corren peligro mientras se encuentran en el bosque mientras intentan dirigirse hacia el sur, hacia Nueva Orleans, en un esfuerzo por encontrar a una bruja que ayude a entrenar a Rain para que use su magia. Pero pronto descubrirán que la diosa de la luna tiene un plan para Rain y su familia recién descubierta. La sacan de su miserable vida y la arrojan a una montaña rusa llena de altibajos: encuentra a la pareja que le ha dado la diosa, descubre el pasado de su familia e incluso libra una guerra para salvar a todas las especies sobrenaturales. ¿Qué implicará su destino? ¿Encontrará su final feliz?

Chapter 1

La vida no es un cuento de hadas. La vida es dura y dolorosa. Es oscura y vacía. Tal vez para la mayoría de las personas sea feliz y siempre soleada, pero ese no es mi caso. ¿Quién soy yo? Mi nombre es Rain, sin apellido, solo Rain. Soy una bruja huérfana en la manada de hombres lobo del Río Azul. Siempre me he preguntado cómo eran mis padres y por qué me abandonaron en una manada de lobos de todos los lugares posibles. ¿Simplemente no me amaban, fui un error, están siquiera vivos? Nunca sabré las respuestas a las muchas preguntas que tengo, y dudo que siquiera tenga un futuro.

Todos en la manada me odian, bueno, todos menos mi mejor amiga Jessica Tompson, otra huérfana. Sus padres fueron asesinados en un ataque de rebeldes a la manada cuando ella tenía 7 años. Con toda su familia muerta, aunque nació en la manada, se convirtió en huérfana como yo. Excepto que cuando cumpla 17 años, obtendrá su lobo y su lugar en la casa de la manada, a diferencia de mí, que me convertiré en una esclava de la manada. Ni siquiera obtendré mis poderes hasta la próxima luna llena después de mi decimoséptimo cumpleaños, no es que tenga a alguien que me enseñe a usarlos.

Ah, sí, se supone que mi cumpleaños es en tres semanas (la manada no sabía mi cumpleaños real, así que solo adivinaron), y el cumpleaños de Jessica es una semana y media antes que el mío. Tal vez por eso nos llevamos tan bien. La manada todavía le hace una fiesta de cumpleaños con pastel y regalos, ya que técnicamente sigue siendo miembro. Aunque no hacen una fiesta para mí, ella siempre guarda algunos regalos envueltos para darme y hasta me hace un pequeño pastel de cumpleaños, ya que no tengo una fiesta porque no soy parte de la manada.

A veces desearía no haber nacido. Mi vida ha sido larga y miserable. Pero Jessica siempre intenta mejorarla. Pasamos la mayoría de nuestras noches en nuestra pequeña habitación, en nuestras literas hablando. Siempre es sobre algo diferente. Jess dice que es para que no me aburra, pero creo que es solo porque no le gusta repetirse. Pero, ¡Diosa, cómo le encanta hablar y a mí me encanta escucharla!

—Rainie, bicho... Rainie... ¡Rain! —grita Jess mientras patea la parte inferior de la litera superior para despertarme.

—¡Ya estoy despierta, ya estoy despierta! —me quejo, frotándome los ojos.

—Oh, gracias a la Diosa por otro hermoso y soleado día —dice Jess radiante mientras mira por la ventana—. Estoy tan emocionada, no puedo creer que en solo dos semanas obtendré mi lobo y podré olfatear a mi compañero. ¡Espero que sea guapo!

—Jess, ¿qué es un compañero? —pregunto mientras bajo de la litera superior.

—Un compañero es tu otra mitad, tu alma gemela, la persona que se supone que te amará y te apreciará por el resto de tu vida —dice con una sonrisa en el rostro.

—¿Tendré yo un compañero? —pregunto pensando en lo bonito que suena.

—No estoy segura, no sé mucho sobre cómo funciona todo eso cuando se trata de brujas —dice mientras caminamos por el pasillo.

—Oh, está bien —respondí sin entusiasmo. Sabía que sonaba demasiado bueno para ser verdad para mí.

—No te preocupes, Rainie, bicho. Con compañero o sin él, siempre me tendrás a tu lado —dice con una sonrisa.

—Te quiero, Jess —digo con una pequeña sonrisa mientras bajo las escaleras del orfanato y me dirijo a la cocina para empezar a preparar el desayuno para los huérfanos más pequeños.

Después de que todos han comido, Jess y yo nos aseguramos de que estén vestidos y tengan todo lo que necesitan antes de que Jess los lleve a la escuela. Cuando todos se han ido, es hora de empezar con mi limpieza diaria. Hay ocho dormitorios, la cocina, la sala de estar y dos baños para limpiar, luego paso a la lavandería y hago las camas antes de empezar a preparar la cena para todos. Soy la única que ha tenido que limpiar y cocinar desde que tenía ocho años. La Sra. Leana dice que es para prepararme y entrenarme para cuando cumpla 17 años y me convierta en la esclava de la manada y me muden al sótano de la casa de la manada.

—Rain, ya estoy en casa de la escuela —llama Jess mientras sube las escaleras y entra en uno de los dormitorios donde estoy. Al darme la vuelta, puede ver el pánico en mi rostro y se da cuenta de que no he terminado de limpiar ni he empezado a preparar la cena. Y ambas sabemos que si todo no está hecho y perfecto cuando llegue la Sra. Leana para su recorrido semanal de exhibición con el Alfa para mostrarle lo limpio que mantiene todo, ella se sentirá avergonzada frente al Alfa y yo recibiré otra paliza.

—Oh no. Ni siquiera te has curado completamente de los últimos latigazos que recibiste —dice, entrando en pánico mientras corre a empezar la lavandería y la cena, mientras yo termino las dos últimas habitaciones. Después de unos veinte minutos, los pisos están barridos y fregados, los juguetes de los niños están en sus cajas, las camas están bien hechas y las ventanas han sido limpiadas.

—Solo faltan las escaleras —me digo a mí misma. Rápidamente agarro mi trapo húmedo y salgo corriendo por la puerta del dormitorio y por el pasillo. Justo cuando llego al primer escalón y empiezo a limpiarlo, la puerta principal se abre. —Estoy jodida —susurro para mí misma, asegurándome de decirlo lo suficientemente bajo para que no lo escuchen. Bajo las escaleras y al girar la esquina, la Sra. Leana camina unos pasos detrás del Alfa mientras él inspecciona la casa. Ella me ve escondida en la esquina y, si las miradas pudieran matar, estoy segura de que ya estaría muerta.

Después de diez minutos de que el Alfa recorre la casa haciendo su inspección, felicita a la Sra. Leana por mantener todo tan limpio, le entrega un cheque de bonificación y se va. Tan pronto como se va, sé lo que me espera. Ella me agarra del cabello y me arrastra al sótano donde guarda sus látigos. Encadena mis muñecas a la pared y rasga mi camisa para exponer mi espalda.

—¡Pequeña perra! ¡Te visto y te alimento y aun así eliges avergonzarme frente a mi Alfa! —grita mientras baja el látigo con fuerza sobre mi espalda desnuda.

—No, Sra. Leana, lo siento. Fue un error. Por favor, perdóneme —le suplico entre dientes apretados, tratando con todas mis fuerzas de no llorar porque sé que llorar solo empeorará las cosas para mí. Lo único que odia más que ser hecha quedar mal frente al Alfa es un huérfano llorón... Bueno, eso y a mí.

Después de unos cuantos latigazos más, finalmente termina. —Límpiate y prepara la cena. Los niños volverán pronto de la escuela y querrán comer —dice antes de subir las escaleras y salir por la puerta principal para ir de compras con su bonita bonificación.

—Oh Diosa, Rainie, esta vez es peor que la anterior. ¿Por qué no entiende que no eres un lobo, que tardas mucho más en sanar? —llora Jess mientras baja las escaleras, desbloqueando las cadenas que sujetan mis muñecas a la pared y evaluando el daño hecho a mi espalda—. Quédate quieta para que pueda limpiarte.

—No hay tiempo, Jess, tengo que preparar la cena antes de que los niños vuelvan de la escuela —digo tratando de ponerme de pie.

—Ya está hecho, ahora quédate quieta como te dije para que pueda limpiarte —dice mientras empieza a limpiar mi espalda suavemente con un trapo húmedo y caliente—. No querrás que los niños te vean así, ¿verdad?

—Eres un salvavidas, ¿qué voy a hacer sin ti cuando te vayas? —digo.

Soft hot lips find the shell of my ear and he whispers, "You think I don't want you?" He pushes his hips forward, grinding into the back of my ass and I groan. "Really?" He chuckles.

"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."

I fall forward onto the bed then turn around to stare at him. The dark tattoos of Domonic's chiseled shoulders, quiver and and expand with the heave of his chest. His deep dimpled smile is full of arrogance as he reaches behind himself to lock the door.

Biting his lip, he stalks toward me, his hand going to the seam of his pants and the thickening bulge there.

"Are you sure you don't want me to touch you?" He whispers, untying the knot and slipping a hand inside. "Because I swear to God, that is all I have been wanting to do. Every single day from the moment you stepped in our bar and I smelled your perfect flavor from across the room."

“Angel, you have a filthy fucking mouth”, I whispered low into her ear.
“Luciano…” Finally, an expression on her face. A real one she wasn’t hiding from me. It wasn’t fear though. It was lust. My girl likes this.

Prince Rafe leans over me, holding himself up on one elbow as he gazes at my face. I feel his eyes wandering over every surface from my brow to my eyes, down my nose, to my lips and chin, and then returning to hold my gaze for a second. The small smile at the corner of his mouth makes me think he likes what he sees.
His hand is cool when it brushes a loose curl from my cheek, but I don’t jerk away from him. I have no idea what’s going on. I don’t understand why I’m here. I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. It seems like a lot of powerful people want me—dead or alive. And yet, all I can think about right now is how badly I want this vampire’s hands on my body.


I live in a desolate village on the edge of the Vampire King’s lands. This used to be wolf shifter territory, but now, we are just trying to survive.
When I mess up and find myself in a culling, I know I’m dead. No wolf shifters ever survive these events.

Is it a good thing or a bad thing when a vampire looks at you like you’re a snack?
Something tells me, once I reach the castle, I’ll be missing my miserable existence in the village.
