"How do I know you won't reject me as well?" I reply, staring at the handsome Alpha who has somehow made it past my walls. He reaches a hand towards me, gently caressing my cheek and tracing down my neck. I can't help the sigh that escapes from me as the sparks erupt under his touch. He presses his lips to my ear, his warm breath giving me goosebumps. "I have waited and searched for you for eight years, Angel. Now that I have you in my arms, I'm never letting you go." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warrior wolf Katrina left her pack three years ago after a painful rejection from her mate. With her sister in tow, they travel in search of a new home. With her heart hardened and broken, Katrina discovers that second chance mates are no myth after running into Alpha Seth of The Red Fang pack. The question is, will she let Seth mend her heart?

He rejected her once. Now he'll do anything to be hers again. Kate Montgomery has always worn her heart on her sleeve - soft-spoken, emotional, and endlessly overlooked. As the Beta's youngest daughter, she was never expected to fight, never expected to lead, and definitely never expected to be mated to the Alpha of the Silver Woods Pack. But fate doesn't care what others expect. The night of her first shift, Kate's world turns upside down when she discovers her mate is none other than Lucian Blackthorn - her older brother's best friend, the cold, powerful Alpha who's never looked at her as anything more than a burden. To her, it's the most beautiful night of her life. To him, it's a mistake. And in front of the entire pack, he makes his decision. "I, Alpha of the Silver Woods Pack, reject you, Katie Montgomery, as my mate and my Luna." Heartbroken but not broken, Katie doesn't run - she rises. She throws herself into training. Into healing. Into forgetting him. Another wolf begins to catch her eye - kind, steady, safe - someone who doesn't flinch at her tears or question her strength. But fate has a cruel sense of timing. As Lucian watches her slip away, the bond he severed starts to burn again. And now, the Alpha who shattered her is desperate to make things right. But Kate isn't the same girl he rejected. And if Lucian wants a second chance... He'll have to earn her heart one apology at a time. Teaser: The Grovel Scene (Lucian's POV - The moment he finally cracks.) ⸻ She didn't even look at me when I stepped into the training field. Not a glance. Not a twitch. Just kept sparring with Camden - the quiet, steady warrior who'd been hanging around her more and more these days. His hands lingered a little too long on her waist when correcting her stance. She let him. I should've ripped him in half for it. But I didn't have that right anymore. So I watched. Watched her smile - smile - at someone else. That smile was MINE. And I'm getting it back.

Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.)

I will drag you there myself, if I have to." They stood, facing each other, each seething, fury building, threatening to mount to something Caia would not allow. "You really think so?" She asked, quietly. He nodded, eyes black, his canines threatening to protrude from his mouth. And her mind was made up. She took a deep breath, mentally preparing, as every part of her steeled itself for the words about to come forth. "I, Caia Alman, re-" He immediately whirled her around, clamping his hand over her mouth, but she said them into his palm, "eject you as my mate." ________ 4 years have passed since Caia Alman rejected Cedric Lincoln, Alpha of the Sacred Shadows pack, as her mate. Since then, she has rebuilt her life in a new city, chasing her dreams that have never, not for a second, involved being a Luna. She thought her connection to the Alpha would have died with her rejection. But, when Cedric comes into her office, she is horrified to see that the Moon Goddess has other ideas.

I was almost to the door when I remembered the leather jacket I brought. I turned back to the room and just as I entered the most wonderful smell hit my nose. My wolf started to go crazy and I looked up to see a small pale girl with black hair in a bun and pale blue eyes. All my wolf kept saying was MATE over and over again. The room blurred until all I saw was her. She was cleaning up the table when her head snapped up to my direction. Her eyes widened and she instantly bowed her head down and stepped back from me. "I am sorry Alpha Colton I did not know you were coming back." She said shaking in fear. Just then Alpha Andrew walked in and slapped her. "DONT JUST STAND THERE CLEAN THIS SHIT UP!" My wolf sprang forward and I grabbed Alpha Andrews throwing him across the room. I Knew i was on the verge of shifting but it was pointless in trying to calm my wolf. "YOU DARE LAY YOUR HAND ON MY MATE!" I growled then grabbed his head smashing it into the wall knocking him out and turned to my mate. She looked at me with wide frightened eyes and backed away. I knew that my eyes were glowing red and my canines were out but I was pissed and didn't have a good temper. When she stepped away from me again I let out a growl and she instantly froze. "MINE." Charity Andrews is a werewolf who hasn't shifted yet. She is abused and mistreated by her pack for this reason because they don't think she is anything but a worthless human. That all changes when Alpha Colton comes for a meeting. Alpha Colton is the coldest meanest Alpha that many fear. When he goes to Alpha Andrews pack to settle a rivalry he didn't expect his mate to be the packs punching bag. He has been looking for his mate for a long time and now that she is right in front of him he is pissed at what she has gone through.

Could he mend her soul, or would he further splinter it? Leon vowed to spare Charlotte the pain, yet his actions betrayed his words. Skillful with his tongue, his deeds spoke differently. Would she depart or remain? A tale of transformation, love, and self-discovery unfolds. © la_via_en_rosee 2020 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀: #1 in werewolffanfiction #2 in werewolf #1 in moongoddess #1 in alphafemale #10 in broken

Best ratings: #1 in #ya, #sexscenes and #mates, #4 in #romance - - - - - PLOT: LILA KING is somewhat notorious in her old wolfpack - as a child she led a rebel crew of delinquents who caused havoc in the reserve and fought vampires. She was one of the best fighters in the pack, but following her best friend's death at 18 she left the pack to live with humans. For her 25th birthday, she finally returns, but only to introduce her werewolf family to a human fiance. What no one expects, though, is that at the party her family throws...she will encounter her destined mate. He is no other than DARIUS CARTER - the new alpha of the biggest wolf-pack in the region, holding a bad rep for killing the former alpha to assume his righteous position. But there is much more to him than just a pretty face and a fabulous six-pack... Can Lila fight destiny? Does she even want to? And why are those vampires starting to appear again with her return? ---EXCERPT: I hear people saying my name through the muffled sounds of my heartbeat banging in my ears. Then suddenly everyone in the room disappears and there are no voices. The only sound is that of his footsteps and the only scent is the most beautiful, sensual, masculine smell I have ever felt. Darius approaches me slowly at two feet away but doesn't stop. As everything seems slow-motioned, I try to step back to avoid a collision, but my feet won't listen. Instead, I take a step forward and we meet at only an inch apart. He looks at me so intensely, so passionately, that I feel devoured. Then he speaks. "Hello, mate." ____________ previous name: *ALPHA CARTER*

I wasn't rejected. I erased myself. In the Highmoon Dominion, an Alpha is forbidden from bonding a human. Kael Thornhart broke that law for me... ...and then broke me for the sake of a pure-blood heir. He gave another woman my place. He handed her my mother's bracelet. He let them drag me across cold stone and call me unworthy. And when their child cried, he looked me in the eyes and asked how I could hurt "his pup." So I made my choice. I walked away-not as the rejected mate... but as the erased one. No scent trail. No grieving howl. No bond left to chase me. The pack believes I'm dead. Kael pretends I never mattered. And somewhere far beyond their borders, in a forgotten outpost meant to be my exile... a lone, exiled soldier watches me like a silent wolf in the dark and vows just one thing: "I won't fail you like he did."
