The Rejected Mate Is Back And Rising
Five years ago, Alpha Damon Blackwood shattered Elena Winters’ heart with three words… I reject you.
Now she’s back… and she’s not alone.
As a rogue, Elena built a new life beyond pack borders, raising her secret daughter and burying the pain of the bond that almost destroyed her. But when her little girl falls ill with a deadly wolf sickness, one that only her true father’s blood can cure, Elena is forced to return to the territory she swore she’d never see again.
Damon never forgot the mate he cast aside. When he discovers the child he never knew existed, his world implodes. His wolf demands to claim what’s his… both mother and pup and this time, he won’t let them go.
But the pack is divided. Old enemies are watching. And the woman Damon rejected isn’t the same submissive wolf he remembers, she’s stronger, sharper, and out for justice.
As war brews between rival packs and betrayal rises within his own walls, Damon and Elena must decide: will they fight for vengeance… or surrender to the bond that could save them all?

Silvery streaks flow, across the irises emitting a glow throbbing in sync with her pulse.She grins.“Hello...Mama.”My breathing falters. I hurry to her side trembling hands gently holding her face.
