The situation at the start
Inherited Debt Makes Escape Seem Impossible
Emma describes domestic service as a lifelong obligation inherited from parents who were enslaved and indebted to Damon's family. Her low rank and lack of a wolf reinforce that confinement. Watching Camila become Luna exposes the distance between Emma's actual position and her hope that Damon might rescue her through a bond. In these opening paragraphs, Emma's longing is bound up with the possibility of relief from labor and the social position she believes she cannot escape.
