Introduction

Era un pato feo con ampollas cubiertas en la cara y solo UNO podía ayudarme a romper la maldición.

Dianna Pack fue atacada cuando tenía tan solo diez años y su madre la hechizó antes de morir. Como resultado de ese hechizo, creció con ampollas que le cubrían la cara y el hechizo solo se puede romper cuando conoce al ÚNICO. Pero como esclava y la vergüenza de su manada, nunca se le permitió asistir a ninguna ceremonia de pareja.

Se dice que Khan, el emperador del Sur, nació sin latir, y solo puede sentir los latidos de su corazón cuando encuentra a su verdadera pareja. Vivía como un robot sin emociones y no sentía nada por nadie ni por nada. Cuando conoció a Diana, el rey experimentó el primer latido de su vida y comenzó a aprender a amar.

Pero no es fácil para quien nunca antes ha sabido lo que es el amor.
¿Podrán Diana y Khan romper la maldición del otro y enamorarse?

Chapter 1

—D-i-a-n-a —dijo Nick, uno de los miembros de nuestra manada BlackWood, con una sonrisa burlona.

No le respondí y seguí caminando. Mi nombre es Diana, y aunque ese nombre es hermoso, mi rostro es tan feo como se puede imaginar. Los miembros de la manada siempre me llamaban Dinana para burlarse de mí.

—Vaya, vaya, mira qué orgullosa está nuestra princesa patito feo —Nick dio un paso adelante para bloquear mi camino, extendió su mano y tiró intencionalmente del pañuelo que cubría mi rostro, y tocó las ampollas en mi cara.

—No me toques —le aparté la mano de un golpe. Mi mejilla derecha estaba cubierta de ampollas rojas, lo que me hacía sentir inferior y sufrir el acoso de los demás.

Intenté dar un rodeo y escapar, pero Nick se abalanzó sobre mí y me empujó al suelo, frotando mi mejilla derecha contra el suelo. Sentí un dolor ardiente en mi cara—. Suéltame.

—Entonces suplica —Nick me agarró del cabello con fuerza.

—Estás soñando —aunque mi cabeza explotaba de dolor, suplicar misericordia a una persona así nunca ha sido mi estilo.

—¿Cómo te atreves a responderme con desafío? —Nick me agarró por el cuello de la camisa, listo para arrastrarme al bosque y golpearme, como de costumbre.

Luché por liberarme de su control, pero era demasiado débil, la fuerza de una mujer era muy inferior a la de un hombre.

Estoy casi desesperada.

—Nick, basta —dijo la señora Flora con severidad. Normalmente le tenía miedo a su rostro frío, pero ahora me sentí aliviada al verla. La señora Flora es la Matrona de la Manada Dark Wood y también está a cargo de mí. Ella es la única que estaba dispuesta a acogerme porque necesitaba una ayudante—. Diana, ve a la cocina y prepara la comida para la cena, el Alfa volverá pronto.

Nick me soltó con una mirada de lástima, luego me lanzó una mirada dura y se alejó a grandes zancadas.

—Gracias, señora Flora, volveré a la cocina de inmediato —dije sinceramente.

—¿Dónde está tu pañuelo? —Frunció el ceño Flora. Me toqué la cara apresuradamente, pero el pañuelo no estaba allí. Debió habérmelo arrancado Nick hace un momento.

Bajé la cabeza y miré alrededor, pero afortunadamente, el pañuelo estaba esparcido no muy lejos, lo recogí rápidamente y, sin importarme que estuviera sucio, lo envolví alrededor de mi cara.

—Recuerda tu trabajo, no andes por ahí causando problemas para mí, después de todo, tienes una cara tan fea —asentí, sin querer refutar.

De camino a la cocina, Beatrice y su amiga pasaron junto a mí y se rieron de mí. Solo se cruzan en mi camino cuando quieren burlarse de mí. Afortunadamente, hoy no me molestaron.

Estaba en la cocina preparando la cena cuando escuché la voz del Alfa Edward y sus dos hijos regresando a casa.

—Bienvenidos a casa, hijos míos —dijo Luna Bianca mientras salía a recibir a sus hijos y esposo.

Espié por la ventana de la cocina para tener una vista clara de ellos.

—Cuéntame, ¿cómo fue la reunión? —preguntó mientras todos entraban en la casa.

—Nuestra manada ha sido elegida para albergar el próximo evento —dijo el Alfa Edward antes de entrar en la casa. Inmediatamente entendí su declaración porque una vez al año suelen tener una ceremonia de mayoría de edad. Esta es la ceremonia donde todos los no emparejados se reúnen con la esperanza de encontrar a su pareja.

Cada lobo está destinado a tener una pareja, por eso todos se reúnen cada año en la ceremonia de mayoría de edad para encontrar a sus compañeros. También creen que cualquier no emparejado que no pueda encontrar una pareja después de los treinta años debe olvidarse de tener una pareja. La persona es entonces sometida a un matrimonio arreglado porque creen que no hay necesidad de que esas personas encuentren una pareja en su vida.

Esta es la primera vez que la ceremonia de mayoría de edad se celebrará en la Manada Dark Wood y estoy contenta porque también es la primera ceremonia de mayoría de edad a la que asistiré.

Ya tengo veintitrés años y nunca me han permitido asistir a la ceremonia de mayoría de edad organizada en otra manada porque quieren ocultar la vergüenza de albergar a alguien como yo en su manada.

Empecé a pensar en cómo sería mi vida si nuestra manada nunca hubiera sido atacada.

Solo tenía diez años cuando ocurrió el incidente y realmente no recuerdo la mayoría de las cosas que sucedieron durante el ataque. Lo único que puedo recordar es a mi madre llevándome al río que está detrás de nuestra manada y lanzando un hechizo al que solo unas pocas Lunas tienen acceso.

—Todo estará bien cuando lo encuentres —dijo mi madre y me pidió que corriera, y que nunca mirara atrás. Hice exactamente lo que me dijo. Estaba perdida y completamente sola en el desierto hasta que el Alfa Edward me vio y decidió llevarme a su manada.

Cuando llegamos a la manada y me lavaron la cara, descubrió que mis ampollas eran permanentes, desde ese momento se arrepintió de haberme traído a la manada.

Ya sabía que fue el hechizo que hizo mi madre lo que causó las ampollas en mi cara, pero no puedo decírselo ni siquiera dejar que sepan que vengo de la Manada Blue Rock, que era una de las manadas más fuertes que fue destruida.

Me sacaron de mis pensamientos cuando la señora Flora entró en la cocina y me dijo que sirviera la comida.

—Dime, ¿hay alguna razón especial por la que decidieron elegir nuestra manada? —preguntó Luna Bianca.

—Eligieron nuestra manada porque esa es la única manera de hacer que el Emperador del Sur aparezca —respondió el Alfa Edward.

Es muy comprensible, ya que casi todos conocen al Emperador del Sur. Es el único Alfa que es llamado Emperador y su manada es conocida como Imperio. También escuché que es tan vasto y muy fuerte en el sentido de que algunos Alfas le rinden homenaje.

—Pero espera, ¿cómo hace posible que él aparezca el hecho de que la ceremonia se celebre en nuestra manada? —preguntó nuevamente Luna Bianca.

—Si la ceremonia de mayoría de edad se celebra en una de las grandes manadas y él asiste, ellos lo aprovecharán, y si se celebra en una manada pequeña, estará por debajo de su estándar. En este caso, nuestra manada es la mejor opción —dijo el Alfa Edward mientras todos comenzaban a comer.

—Diana, ¿esta sería la primera ceremonia de mayoría de edad a la que asistirás? —preguntó Beatrice. Levanté la vista para ver su mirada burlona hacia mí.

Simplemente asentí y no dije nada. De todos modos, cada vez que venía a hablar conmigo, no era para nada bueno.

—Es una lástima para ti porque aún no estarás entre los participantes —dijo Beatrice y mis ojos se abrieron de par en par. Miré al Alfa Edward esperando que dijera algo, pero se quedó en silencio.

—¿Pero por qué no asistiré a la ceremonia? —pregunté mientras mi corazón ya se sentía destrozado.

—Es muy obvio, no asistirás a la ceremonia porque eres una chica miserable —dijo Beatrice mientras comenzaba a comer su comida.

—¿O quieres traer deshonra a la Manada Dark Wood? Es obvio que tu compañero te rechazará por las ampollas en tu cara —dijo con una sonrisa burlona y me sentí degradada, deseando poder callarla.

—Beatrice, ya basta, puedes dejarnos ahora —dijo el Alfa Edward y obedientemente me fui del comedor.

Salí y vi a algunas de las guerreras de la manada ocupadas con sus deberes. Inmediatamente, vi pasar a Gabu y me miró, casi me derrito. Aunque nunca me ha hablado, sonríe cada vez que me ve como un gesto de reconocimiento. Mi corazón latió más rápido y pensé en lo maravilloso que sería si Gabu fuera mi compañero.

«Estarás bien cuando lo encuentres», esas son las palabras de mi madre y resuenan en mi cabeza, preguntándome a quién se refería.
