On my 18th Birthday, My twin sister married my mate, Alpha Jacob, in my name.
 
 I was Alisa Clark, the she-wolf with the purest blood. The Alphas must feed on my blood. 
 They were blessed with great power while they were cursed. The greater their abilities, the shorter their lives. My blood protected them from their curse
 
 Yet, my twin Jennifer took away my glory and had me tortured for 6 years! Worse still, My mate allowed it
 **
 "You've been like a pig for us. He can smell you down here. He's known this whole time."
 
  She took out a mirror and held it up to my face. " You think he would ever accept such an ugly mate like this pig."
 
 I hadn't seen myself since I was twelve, vibrant and healthy. I was a child then, and now I looked like a ghost. My face was hollow and pale like a sick person. 
 
 I saw the scar on my face, it burned and had inflamed my cheek so that it was swollen. My eyes were red from the tears. 
 
 My hair was dull and limp over my skull. My purple eyes were the only piece of me that still held some semblance of life. 
 
 I could see scars even on my neck, and I knew that my body was even more scarred, and even more pathetic...
 
 "How dare you be so stupid." Jennifer said. "How dare you think the Alpha wants you for more than your blood. Imagine him mating with you, when he could have me."

The Lunas Second Chance Mate

         It's hard to feel not included in the cure development, but I watch Ryan and Olivera get along for many consecutive weeks. At least I have that peaceful energy around, watching them work with the palace pack healers to help the rogues locked up in the facilities, still sick. 


         Thankfully there wasn't an enormous outbreak and everything seems to have worked out. I can't help the feeling of doom, though, thinking about every time things were perfect, something horrible happened. I thought once we defeated Jacob and sent away Jennifer, everything would have worked out forever. 


         I was wrong, but if none of that bad stuff happened, I wouldn't be pregnant.
