"I, Holden Parker, reject you, Valerie Queen, as my mate," He spoke once he made up mind.
But as he looked at her, all she did was smile as if his rejection pleased her.
"I, Valerie Queen, accept your rejection," she said without an ounce of hesitation.
"Wait what?" he asked, confused, "That's it? You're not gonna cry? Complain? Nothing?"
"No. Honestly, if you hadn't rejected me, I would've rejected you," she said perplexing Holden even further. "You see, Holden, I have plans. Plans that don't involve a mate."

Valerie Queen, she is easily one of the best alphas who has ever existed. Due to some unfortunate events she had to become an alpha at the age of eleven. She never forgot what happened and never let it go. This has caused her many problems growing up.
With most everyone she ever really cared about gone, she's sworn to protect them at all cost. They however don't know what happened to her. No one really knows. Only her, and she hasn't spoken about it once, but that doesn't mean it doesn't still haunt her.
Holden Parker has a nice life. He has the money, the looks, the girls, and soon, the title. He has it all and he didn't even have to lift a finger, but when his father is starting to doubt how he will lead as an alpha, he sends him away to a place he is sure he will improve.
Holden, of course, doesn't like this. But, he will finally get the thing he's never had. His mate, though he never wanted one to begin with. Neither did she, but fate says otherwise.

Shey Lazera felt she was not destined to have a mate.
She had been rejected so many times she almost enjoyed the fire, the burning that covered her body. Each wave of fire separating her and her wolf, each wave chipping away at her wolf's spirit until she was barely noticeable anymore, her power diminished.
She was viewed as weak by the men she was mated to. With her wolf nearly invisible to those around her she was looked down upon as a muddie. A shifter whose wolf hides away from the world in the human side.
So it comes as a surprise when she trespasses in a territory, fucks up an escape attempt, and gets dragged soaking wet in front of another Alpha, who refuses to reject her like she wants.
~~~
Luka Sterling had been forced into the Alpha position after an accident killed his two older brothers and his father. He had taken up the mantle to take it off of his fragile mother but he knew it did not belong to him.
He was a weak Alpha that had needed constant training just to be ready in case anyone tried to take his position. He was a weak Alpha with no true Beta or mate. He had been rejected once and that had been enough for him to not try again.
So he was more than surprised and more than irritated when members of his patrol drug a half drowned dark haired beauty with green eyes as cold as ice, into his office. He hadn't wanted a mate and his first thought was to reject her until she opened her rosy lips and demanded he do just that.
Her demands sparks something in his wolf and rejecting her is now he last thing he wants and he demands her submission instead.
