Chapter 1
- Emma at eighteen years old was orphaned, her parents died in an attack in the forest when they were returning to the castle, she is the eldest of three brothers, at that time she swore on the grave of her parents that she will protect her brothers at the expense of all, Her greedy aunt Elizabeth and Carlos her husband, upon learning of the death of his brother appear in the clan of the herd to claim their land, she for being a woman the great alpha Darían of the lands of the South yields the power Carlos and is programmed alpha of the Sallow herd.
- Some time later Emma was in her brother Nick's room, a little boy of only three years of age trying to sleep, when she manages to do so she carefully leaves the room, when she passes by the rest room she stops when she hears her name mentioned, she hides and observes that her two uncles and the malicious old man of the herd Oliver Brank, who always despised her mother for being from other lands, are gathered.
- Elizabeth is the younger sister of the two brothers, since her older brother brought that savage from the Northlands to the herd and married her, the people of high society when they heard about that wedding stopped taking her into account, and from then on they were not invited to the parties and social events of other herds, those brats don't know the hatred she feels for them, but now that her brother Harry and the savage of her sister-in-law Yendra had died, she would take care to get that two half-breed out of her way and educate Nick at her whim to follow her orders, with a calm voice she says. "Oliver, we must marry those two half-breeds as soon as possible without so much formality."
- "Mistress Elizabeth, leave that in my hands I will see to it that those two weddings take place." Oliver muttered the paunchy old man while taking a new vanilla cake."
- Elizabeth looked at him with a sour face. "The candidates already know those half-breeds since they were little girls, they are willing to marry them to dominate them, teach them manners and disciplines, their savage mother didn't educate them properly, those two instead of being knitting and receiving manners lessons, they spend their time riding horses all over the herd, people think they are daughters of the maids."
- Carlos Elizabeth's husband and the girls' uncle, smiled mischievously. "It will be a win-win arrangement, when I proposed to those two alphas to marry them, they did not hesitate to say yes, they will take them to their herds to do with them as they please, they have been coveting those girls for a long time, they stated that they will know how to submit them to their whims."
- Elizabeth let out a laugh, in a mischievous voice she says. "I can't wait for those savages to disappear from my sight, Emma is already eighteen to get married, we need her to move her influences on Ashley since she is sixteen so she takes advantage of dating both brats at the same time."
- Emma in disbelief listened silently to her uncles evil plans, she thought of her parents, if they were alive they would not allow that to happen, since they had died her uncles turned their home into a nightmare, where everything had to be done under rules and as they said, She could not believe that her uncles were going to marry them to two of her father's enemies, the men who always hated him since he married a woman from the Northlands, those alphas have always looked at us with perversity and lust, she stood paralyzed analyzing what she could do.
- "I guess those two men will take them away from this herd, honestly and for the good of you Carlos it is better that those two rebellious half-breeds disappear from these lands." Commented Oliver sarcastically as he popped another piece of cake into his mouth.
- "Yes! the agreement is that they will be taken out of these lands, and once they leave we will never see them again, they will know what to do with them, it is unbearable to live in harmony with those girls, they don't want to obey, abide by rules and much less behave like ladies" said Carlos with a neutral voice.
- Elizabeth taking in her hands a cup of tea, with an arrogant voice says. "Already soon we will remove that headache from our lives, only Nick's bastard will remain in this house, under my tutelage and I will raise him, when the time comes he will be the Alpha and heir of these lands; he will be more moldable without the influence of those two savages, I will teach him to be a good leader of his father's lands, and when the time comes to fight he will be the one to defeat our enemies of the Northern lands."
- Emma I couldn't listen anymore, tears were rolling down her face, very carefully she was leaving the house, in her mind appeared Jacob, the former beta of the herd and my father's best friend; after the alpha of the herd died he defected from his position, he settled inside the forest with some people who followed him, he had always helped them; she decided to go to look for him and ask for help, she transformed and started to run Blue through the immense forest, she stopped exhausted from so much running, she returned to her human form to rest and curse loudly. "mangy bitch evil mangy bitch!".
- Ashley was returning from the village, she took a shortcut through the forest when suddenly she sees in the distance her sister agitated and upset, she approaches to tell her in a worried voice. "Emma what's wrong?"
- Emma is startled to hear sister, then turns to see her, in a nervous voice she says, "Ashley we need to urgently find Jacob."
- Ashley seeing her sister's face, thinks, what's wrong with her is not good. "Come on I'll go with you, it's not far, but what's wrong with you?"
- Emma without taking her eyes off her, starts walking with her. "Aunt Elizabeth and Carlos are trying to marry us, you to Nasir Lennox and me to Erick Brox."
- Ashley surprised stops immediately, she cries out in disbelief. "What, if we hate those men as much as they hate us, they despise us because of our origins."
- Emma pulls her to continue walking, as she says. "Our uncles intend for those men to take us off our land and they will keep Nick, they are going to raise him at their mercy, to keep all of daddy's property for themselves, come on we must find Jacob!"
- Tears begin to well up in Ashley's eyes, in an anxious voice she says. "But Jacob what is he going to do, if he tries to help us they will banish him far from the borders of these lands or worse they will kill him."
- Emma replied grabbing her sister by the hand. "I don't know what he will do, but when dad died he told me if we were ever in danger to look for him inside the forest, I hope he can help us."
- We started running down the forest trail, as we were getting there we slowed down.
