Après que l'amie d'enfance de mon fiancé a découvert que j'étais née avec une maladie cardiaque, elle a secrètement versé une boisson énergisante à haute dose dans mon champagne. Dès que je l'ai bue, mon cœur s'est mis à battre la chamade et une douleur aiguë s'est propagée dans ma poitrine. Paniquée, j'ai déballé mon seul médicament d'urgence, mais l'eau que j'utilisais pour le prendre avait été remplacée par de l'eau citronnée. Dès que je l'ai bue, mon visage a pâli. J'ai perdu toute force et je me suis effondrée sur le sol. « L'eau citronnée est pleine de vitamine C. Elle aide à lutter contre la gueule de bois et à rester en bonne santé. » Charlotte Moreau a ri si fort qu'elle a failli se renverser. Les bras croisés, elle a regardé mon fiancé, Étienne Lacroix, le patron des Pierres Roulantes. « Étienne, le jeu de ta fiancée est incroyable ! » « Je suis médecin depuis des années et je n'ai jamais vu quelqu'un réagir comme ça à un peu de champagne et d'eau citronnée. » Je me suis mordu la lèvre jusqu'à goûter le sang. La douleur m'a piqué les yeux et j'ai serré la jambe d'Étienne. « Chéri, s'il te plaît, appelle une ambulance ! Je n'en peux plus... » Pendant un instant, son expression a vacillé, mais les invités ont rapidement interrompu la conversation. « Mais arrête de faire semblant ! Personne ne meurt d'un peu de champagne et d'eau citronnée. » « Oui, tu es juste jalouse que Charlotte ait été promue et tu ne voulais pas lui porter un toast. » Le visage d'Étienne est redevenu froid. Il a repoussé ma main et s'est écarté. « Charlotte est médecin. Tu seras bien avec elle ici. » J'ai arrêté de supplier et j'ai envoyé un texte à mon père pour lui demander de l'aide.

Sage can't hide her magic... ...or her baby bump Witches and Lycans don't mix. At least, they're not supposed to. But secret hybrid Sage is proof they do, and so is the cub growing inside her, and now her alpha lover knows everything. Her only choice is to run. Their one night of passion wasn't supposed to end with any ties. (Or surprises like his wild wolf woman was also a witch.) Nikko had said as much that night. As alpha, of all people, he couldn't break pack law to take a hybrid as his mate--much less sire lycan-w itch cubs! Could he? Then Sage runs, with his seed growing inside her, and all he can think about is protecting his family... No matter what. Even if it means exile forever from his pack and all Nikko's ever known...he must find Sage and his child before the trail runs cold, and so does his heart.
