The Mysterious Rogue by BettieBurton

Cauldon is a Rogue and has been one ever since he left his family many years prior. His best friend has always been by his side since they were little and ran away from everything and everyone they knew. Then one day he was approached by another rogue whose cousin had been kidnapped and held on a farm where usually girls and kids are always taken to and forced to become slaves to many, including the royal family. He has always hated that way of life, but the soon-to-be new Alpha King has ordered a new law that everyone must obey. Usually many have asked him to do jobs like this because many fear him and he is never caught so this guy ends up making him an offer he can't turn down. Embers has recently turned eighteen and according to the new law she has no choice but to go to the farm because she has not found a mate yet. Her family has never loved her nor wanted her in the first place. Things start to look up after her rescue but once she realizes who exactly rescued her and knows his reputation of being both ruthless and heartless, even with women, she starts to question if she was safer at the farm or with this rogue. Okay, not sure on the description but I hope you still give it a chance. It will be good. :);) © Copyright 2020 All Rights Reserved

Even without that knowledge, Amara is instantly drawn to him. On top of adjusting to living with a pack for the first time, she also has to wrestle with her feelings and the possibility that on her twenty first birthday, she might have her heart broken if the Alpha turns out to not be hers. if that was not complicated enough, strange visions and dreams have started plaguing Amara and an attack from a rogue wolf brings up questions about her past.

Forgotten Wolf by Siberiantiggy

Scars... Some are worn on the outside and read like a book, others are hidden on the inside, unseen but shape every fabric of our being. Alpha Chris has his share of scars. He wears them like badges of honour, having earned them protecting his pack. Jess carries hers on the inside, a collection of secret shame... After Jess breaks free of an abusive ex, she goes home to her farm in the remote countryside to pick up the pieces of her shattered life. She tries to bury her trauma and move on, determined not to let anyone get too close again. Chris has given up on finding his mate and focuses all of his energy on his pack, growing colder and more distant with every passing year. Just when he least expects it, she falls into his lap, smelling like his best friend and wanting nothing to do with him. What happens when a battle-hardened Alpha who is used to getting his way comes up against a stubborn woman set on walling herself from everyone? More than brute strength is needed to break through those walls and reach her. When hidden enemies threaten both their lives, will he be able to reach his Goddess-given gift in time? Or will pride and tempers ruin their last chance at happiness? The Moon Goddess has a plan that neither understands. BOOK 1 OF THE FORGOTTEN WOLF SERIES

You Are Mine by gonebeforethesunsets

"Beau, stop," I gasped, but I didn't want him to stop. "Amabelle. I am your alpha and your mate. You are mine and only mine. I am yours and only yours. Don't tell me what I can and can't do to you," he murmured. "I-" I started. My protests were silenced with his lips pressed against mine, and the traitor I was to myself, I made no move to remove them. -------------------- Amabelle Murdock has experienced much, much more than an eighteen year old should. She witnessed her pack being brutally murdered and her parents dying while saving she and her siblings. Her heavy past is a burden that she feels no other person should feel the need to help carry. Beau Chandler is the breathtakingly possessive alpha-to-be. There's just one thing holding him back from gaining his alpha title: a mate. He needs a luna by his side in order to truly rule the pack. When Amabelle and Beau meet, both are desperately in love with one another. However, Amabelle is determined not to let her past be a burden to her mate. Beau is determined to show Amabelle that she belongs to him. ----------- Okay so this was written a long time ago, so it's obviously problematic. Please no negative comments⏤I'm in the process of editing it, I know it's immensely flawed.
