BOOK ONE of Forsaken Fates Series -SABLE- I grew up on the wrong side of Sterling Pines, where omegas learn not to ask for things they won't be given. When fate bound me to four alpha wolves, the golden boys of the elite, they rejected me without hesitation. They didn't realize what I was to them. They don't remember the night they shattered me. They walked away protected by wealth, status, and a town that always shields its own. I survived by becoming cold. I buried the girl who believed in fate and built walls no one could climb. I don't need their apologies. I don't need their hunger. I don't need men who only learned my worth after losing me. They can chase all they want. I'm already gone. -PACK ROSS- We don't remember rejecting her. But our bodies do. The bond woke up wrong: sharp, violent, relentless. It tears through us every time she's near and every time she isn't. We feel her absence like starvation. Like a wound that won't close. Like something vital was ripped out and taken where we can't follow. She won't look at us. She won't soften. She treats us like predators and it's driving us insane. We watch her move through the world without us, colder, stronger, untouched by our regret. The omega we dismissed has become unreachable, and the bond won't let us stop circling. We want to claim her. We want to fix it. We want what we're no longer sure we deserve. She says we're too late. The bond says she's still ours. One of us is lying. Forsaken Fates: Book One is a dark, reverse harem, shifter romance featuring rejected mates, obsessive and unraveling MMCs, class divide, feral bonds, power imbalance, and an omega who survives by refusing to be claimed. 🥇#1 in "Fated" on 11/20/25 - 12/23/25 🥇#1 in "Desperate" on 4/13/26 🥇#1 in "Stalking" on 5/17/26 🥈#2 in "Feral" on 4/13/26 🥉#3 in "Scent" on 11/20/25 🥉#3 in "Wolf" on 12/23/25 & 🏅 #8 on 4/2/26 🏅#6 in "Angstwithhappyending" on 4/6/26 🏅#7 in "Heartbreak" on 1/28/26 🏅#19 i
