"I don't want a mate, need a mate or have a mate. Nothing you say is going to change that." Alpha Aidan of the Fervidus territories has been longing for a challenge for longer than he can remember. When subversive Lorelei shatters his heart and devastates the traditions he holds dear, a singular word resonates in the testy Alpha's mind. Mate. But his witty little rogue isn't the accepting kind. Or the settling kind. Or the kind, open and sweet kind. Definitely not the sociable kind. Will he keep up, or will she sweep him under the carpet with yesterday's woes? Only time, patience and an iron will may tell. "I'm a patient man."

[COMPLETED] I was cursed at such a young age, abandoned by my own wolf and the Moon Goddess for something that wasn't in my control. I don't even think having a mate is in the cards for me... ✨🌘✨ I jumped when the final horn sounded, circling the garden before everyone became silent. They all returned to their seats, my father rising from his chair as I stood from my seat along with the other pups. I struggled to breath as we took our position, standing in the centre away from everyone else. My father offered me a reassuring glance though it did nothing to ease my anxiety, all I had to do now was wait. My eyes widened when the moons blue light shined down on me, illuminating my skin as I stared up at the sky in awe. "We thank the moon goddess for the power of her light..." I dropped my gaze back down, my fathers words surrounding us, "...Shall it bathe you and grant you strength, agility, speed like the wolf..." The pups around me began to moan in pain, capturing my attention as I furrowed my brows. Their features were all contorted by an invisible pain that inflicted them but I felt absolutely nothing. My heart raced when their groans of pain became screams but I- I suddenly drop to the ground, a painful throbbing in my head forcing me to the ground. I grip the sides of my head, screaming. I don't know how to explain it but it felt as though my brain was tearing in two, like my head was cracking open. When the pain stopped, I found myself surrounded by wolves, the shifted pups. Looking down at myself, I only see my body, no paws and no fur. I hadn't shifted... ✨🌕✨ Book 2* 'The Wolven King' is the first book and must be read in order to understand this one. ⚠️ WARNING!!

When fate took away both pack and mate, a wolf had only one option - to become a rogue. Landon was never one to make other's life easier, so it shouldn't have been a surprise for neither his mate nor brother, that he did not conveniently die after his rejection.

~~~~ nəːd/ noun a foolish or contemptible person who lacks social skills or is boringly studious. Rude, right? That was the definition of being a nerd, according to Google anyways.

No. I had this mentality for a long time until the one day where being called a nerd actually hurt me. The day that I was rejected for just being smart but unfortunately boring. I got rejected for being a nerd. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ WARNING: Mature content and swearing. I started this when i was like 14 so it's ready not that good... i do aim to go through it and edit it soo the characters aren't so cringe and the story makes more sense but not anytime soon!!
