"You wanted me to reject you," he shouts, frustrated.
     "Well, maybe I want to take it back," I whisper.
     He sighs, running his fingers through his hair. "It isn't that simple." He trains his eyes on me, stepping out from behind his desk and leaning on the front of it. On his face is an unreadable expression. I walk toward him, a determined look on my face but wonder laced in my eyes. Thoughts race through my head as my heart pounds.
     "What if it is?"

Rowan's been running from a young age when her brother and father were killed by a man who only wants to use her. After having a close run-in with pack members of the ruthless man that's after her, Rowan's hectic runaway life turns even more hectic as she meets new people who turn out to only want the best for her, something she hasn't had in a long time. 

With only four months until her 18th birthday, things begin to change. Rowan begins to change and memories start to seep into her mind, memories she'd forcibly pushed out. Through her hard journey to figure out what's happening to her, Rowan discovers that she doesn't need to be alone and that she doesn't have to. 

Will Rowan open up to people who crave to be her friends? Will she belong somewhere and decide it's time to stop running? Is love something Rowan can bring herself to behold and be comfortable with, something she can trust herself with?

A day trip to a local wildlife refuge was Cage's last idea for a date with a female. Being dragged into it by his friends, he would rather be back in the packlands planning out where to look next. Kirsten isn't his mate but everyone around him pushed him toward her at a chance for a future. After years of looking, wolves start to wonder if their mates are out there, and the hope he has starts to twindle every year. The wolf pushes still to pursue the search. He believes she is out there, shouldn't Cage? When an odd feeling like an itch he can't scratch starts to rise and a shiver runs through him, Cage's wolf leads him forward from his friends as a playful southern voice rings out in the crowd and he stops in his tracks as his gaze lands on a woman standing up in front of the crowd. Consumed by the bond and moving forward their eyes meet with a mixture of excitement and confusion swirls in her eyes. Finally found Cage throws caution to the wind in the pursuit to get to her and fill the bond, the only problem is, she's a human and he has to win her over before he can reveal his true identity to her. Meanwhile, old rivals and sinister plans threaten to rock the peace of his pack and the safety of its future as they hide in the shadows and backgrounds, slowly pushing forward to throw them into war. Pulled between his pack and his mate, Cage is forced into two directions and choices to make.

Hidden by DarlingSophisticated

[DISCONTINUED] **MATURE LANGUAGE AND CONTENT** **POSSIBLE TRIGGERS** WATTYS2018 I walk down the staircase, entranced with his sharp, angular features. I notice how his lip curls up at the edge when he sees me. A soft breeze blows his scent across the room, and I can't think. Roses and salty ocean waves fill my nostrils. Add sunlight to the mix- which shouldn't have a smell but Luna, he smells like it- and I'm pretty sure if I could open my mouth, I'd be drooling. 'Mate.' My wolf whispers, giddy. I scramble back up the stairs. ____________________ Opening up when something terrible happens is hard. Near impossible. Jessamine Lightly was as normal as a Lycanthrope could be, but also a self-conscious teenager who felt a little out of place. She never thought that a boy would be interested in her, much less want to date her. Jessa learns too late that not every boy has pure intentions, and the boy she thought loved her, just wanted what was beneath her clothing. Hiding her physical and emotional pain from her family, Jessa copes with scarring memories and revelations. Intent on escaping her personal devil, Jessa plans to leave her pack. But having her mate- that she doesn't want- show up on her doorstep could change everything. Love, pain, twisted agendas and more...Jessamine goes through it all. Can she keep it all together before before someone figures out the true secret hidden in her scars? #724 Rejection 7/29/18 #339 Rejection 2/15/19 #6 empty 8/20/18

"Alison," one of them says, walking closer to me. "Yes, Alpha?" I ask as I shuffle back slightly, keeping my head down. He takes a few more quick steps towards me, backing me into the cupboards. I flinch when his hand reaches out to gently cup my face. Oh, no. "Look at me." My body involuntarily listens, lifting my head to look into deep green eyes. 'Mate,' my wolf, Vanessa, whispers weakly, talking to me for the first time in over a year. 'Nessa?!' I try to call back to her. She doesn't reply. I look back at the twin that I now somehow know is Cameron. My eyes dart between him and Chris as I start to hyperventilate. No. If Cameron is my mate then that means...No... Alone since the death of her parents, Alison Taylor has spent six years relying on herself, surviving by herself, and protecting herself. The time that she doesn't spend working or studying is spent fearfully avoiding bullies. All she's ever wanted was to get out of the pack and away from those who hurt her. Everything changes when the future alphas of her pack come of age and discover she's their mate. Alison's life changes forever as past wounds are reopened and secrets are brought to light.

Luna by LifeCanReallySuck

It was cold. So cold. My skin and body was numb, I shivered. My skin was purple, the once puddles on my floor almost like a pool. My cell was completely cement with a metal door. I had no light, no fresh air, no clean clothes and no actual place to sleep. After Dawn Frost goes rogue from her abusive pack she goes on the run, she finds her hot-headed Mate. Who happens to be his packs Alpha. "My name is Gabriel," I bow my head nervously under his stare. His blue eyes piercing through mine. "You're the one I saved, aren't you?" He puts his finger under my chin when I dont look up at him and makes me look at him in the eyes. I shake me head yes. "What's your name, Love?" My heart starts to get pains and butterflies are in my stomach as I look into his cool blue eyes. I open my mouth and try to speak but I couldn't, so I closed it again. "What's your name?" He stiffens, clearly getting agitated. After a long still silence between us he angrily put his hands to his sides. Gabriel Artic is from a long family of Alpha's, his father being the most well known. Gabriel was the alpha of the AfterGlow pack being the strongest and scariest pack to go against. What happens when Gabriel finds Dawn? Will Gabriel reject her? Can she change him? What happens when Gabriel finds out about Dawn's past and who caused it all? Will Dawn get in touch with her pack again? **** NO COPY WRITE! MATURE AUDIENCES! UNEDITED!

The Alpha's Sierra by zero_gravity500

"I'm going to erase and replace that man-every man-from your mind," Alexander's grip on me tightens. A snarl escaping his lips to remind me exactly what he is. "By the time we're through, I'll be so deeply embedded in you, you'll ask yourself whether you truly had real pleasure before me." I can't even help my gasp, "Oh my God." "This is where Hell freezes over, Sierra." There's a light click. "There is no God here." *** Cold. That's the only way to describe the Sierra Pack. A Pack known for its ruthlessness and brutality. But when you live so high in the snowcapped mountains, only the strongest survive. The only thing icier than their glaciers is their blood lusting Alpha-Alexander. Hot.

But Sierra has always found the beauty in the most feared. With secrets, customs, and traditions in the Sierra, can fire and ice learn to dance with one another?

Everything I went through was worth it. "Don't worry, mommy's coming," I said in a baby voice hoping to comfort him even though he wasn't crying. My heart dropped in my chest when I saw it was empty. No baby in sight. "Gray!," I screamed loudly like I was getting stabbed over and over again. He ran into the nursery, scanning the area for any danger. "He's gone! Our baby's gone!" His eyebrows furrowed as his eyes softened realising what happened. Just as quick as it came, it vanished and he was back with the icy look in his eye. The one he had when we first met. For a moment, I was afraid of him going back to his old self before dismissing that thought and focusing on my missing newborn son. Don't worry, I'm coming for you, my little bubba... Will the angel given to him melt the Alphas ice solid façade or not? Is she helping him escape his darkness or is she dragging him into hers? Read to find out... Cover by @belladz07

I couldn't react before Jason was right in front of me, his wolf taking over by the way his eyes turned pitch black. "Mine." he growled out, taking a step closer to me. His hand brushed my cheek, and sparks erupted. Now, most people are ecstatic finding their soul mates, their second halves, whatever you want to call them. They rejoice over the thought of finding their soul mate. Years ago, I probably would have thought that would be how it turned out. A casual meeting, them feeling the sparks and being overwhelmed by the scent. But now I found myself with the one choice I had left. Go to Jason, who would be extra possessive because he was an alpha, and bring danger to the pack for being a wanted wolf, or running, and hopefully never seeing them again. My wolf's heart broke at the thought, but I was left with no choice. So I ran. ... After being the most wanted werewolf in the country, Amy Barlow decides to go into hiding. She chooses a small town on the border of the Silver Crescent Pack Territory - one of the most powerful packs in the nation. At first, changing her name to Kara Thomas and dying her hair blonde seems to be enough to throw people off her trail, but when something happens that is not planned for, her original idea crumbles. Will she be able to stay hidden long enough to not get caught? Or will she fall into the hands of a trap? With her mate close on her tail, how will she ever hide? ... COMPLETED!!!! Once the sequel is completed, I will rewrite this one. Stay tuned!

Four years ago, a 13-year-old blackmailed me into friendship by holding my doughnut captive. We've been close ever since. I soon noticed that I wanted to be more than just friends. I was in love with my best friend. But sadly, he didn't feel the same way. I thought my world was over. I was crushed. But to my utmost yet most delighted surprise, I just happened to fall into the arms of a certain bad boy. Literally. He didn't just save me from what could've been a hell of a concussion that night. He saved my heart too. But hey, let's not get in over our heads now. It wasn't that easy. Not even close. After all, when two opposing worlds clash for the very first time, we can't just expect it to be all rainbows and sunshine. Now, do we?
