"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?

"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.

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

Hiding From My Mate by NuShaGreen

"I need to talk to you Elly" "Why?!" "I know that you're my mate" I laughed sarcastically. "What?! Are you trying to make fun of me again like you did two years ago?" I saw everyone flinched at that and Drake had this look of hurt. "I apologised Elly! Please give me a chance. We're mates after all" he pleaded. "We. Are. Not. Mates" I said angrily. "Do I smell like your mate?" I questioned knowing he had no answer for that. "You're hiding it" "Really!" I looked surprised but that made Drake angry. "Let's go for sparks then" he tried to grabbed my hand but Josh pushed me behind him. "Are you trying to touch someone else's mate, Alpha?" Josh asked. "Josh!" Others shouted and Drake growled loudly, his eyes turning black. And he looked at me with those eyes. "Just remember Elly! I asked you nicely" with that he turned and stormed out of the library, others following him behind. ________________________________________ Elly was a quiet and smart girl who had a promising future as a doctor.

Her Younger Mate (Old Version) by agguerra

The edited version of this book is being updated under the name "That's Inappropriate, Mr. King." Twenty-two-year-old Anna wonders if she will ever find her mate. After her brother suggests that she should go to her original pack and try her luck, she decides to move there and gets her first job as a high school teacher. She had dreamed about her mate for very long time, but when she finds him, he is nothing like she expected... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* "Mr. King, what can I help you with?" "Mate..." He growled... A conflicted look in his eyes. "I knew this would happen, but I told you, we have to wait-" He scoffed, interrupting me. "I Caleb King, re-" Now, I interrupted him... with a kiss. I know I should not be doing this, but I have been looking for him for so long and I just needed to do this... At least once. A real kiss with my mate. I expected him to pull away but he put his hands on my lower back and pulled me closer to him. I could feel sparks and a happiness and tranquility invaded my body. It just felt right and I wanted more, but I knew how this would end. I felt the tears running down my cheeks. I stepped back, interrupting the kiss. He whimpered a little bit and for a second I saw adoration in his eyes, but he pushed it back, giving me a blank stare. "I am sorry. I needed to do this. You can reject me now." He looked a little taken aback. "You were going to reject me. I just thought we both needed to experience this only once. You are the future Alpha, so I should not be the one to break the bond. Please do it now!" I do not why, but I wanted him to do it. After all, he was going to do it before and I did not want a kiss to change his mind. "I Caleb King, reject you Anna Amores as my mate." I think I could hear my heart break in that second. "I Anna Amores, accept your rejection, Alpha, and I wish the best for you, always." I gave him an honest smile... And he left, without looking back... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

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.

Caged In by AnnSearle

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.

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.
