Who Are The Main Characters In 'The Mate He Denied'?

My mother was a traitor. To my pack, I am no better. I'm used to being overlooked. I've been unwanted from the time I was born, and my pack, River Crest, made it abundantly clear every chance they could that I was not welcome. No one and nowhere was safe. I've spent my entire life alone, with no family, no friends, and now, no mate. At 24 years old, unmated and unwanted, I've accepted that I must be one of the mateless. Wretched, forsaken wolves who are cursed to live out their lives alone. Or worse. The legends and histories claim that being a mateless wolf is worse than death. They suggest choosing a mate and forming a bond before madness sets in or the pack rejects me. But I've been rejected. I'm used to the feeling. I thrive in it. Because the more they push me away, the less pain and humiliation I have to face. If I can make it another year unmated, I could face banishment, and I'll finally be free. That's my goal. And I'll be damned if I let anyone get in my way. Even my mate.

I used to believe fate was cruel. Taken as a child. Forgotten by the family who should have fought for me. And bound to an Alpha who only ever looked at someone else. For three years, I’ve lived as his wife in name only— a ghost in my own home, unwanted and unloved. When I told Matthias I was pregnant, I thought something might change. But his golden eyes burned with fury. He called me a liar. A mistake. A deceiver. Then she came back. The sister I thought I’d lost forever. The woman he grieved. The one he truly loved. The one his mating bond was connected to. Now, just as I’d walked away and reclaimed my freedom, Matthias decides he wants me back. But it’s too late. Because Alpha Cassiel Aldric—the coldest, most respected Alpha of them all, held me tight… and said, “Mate. You are mine.” Now I’m caught between two Alphas: One who threw me away. And one who would burn the world to claim me.

Her mate and her best friend betrayed her. She realises that he never loved her. She learns that he was the one who killed her pack. And now he was going to kill her… She regrets not listening to Gavin, the only one who cared about her. The only one who was truly trying to protect her. The only true friend she really had. She regrets that she pushed him to his death. But it was too late…  Her mate succeeds in killing her, but then she was sent back in time to when it all began. Her loved ones were alive again. Her parents, her companions… even Gavin.  This time she was determined to save her pack from her enemies. She wasn't going to let Georgette and Michael prevail. She works with the only one she could trust - Gavin.  Little did she think she would find herself falling into the abyss of love again. And this time it's not Michael.

Warning: This book has high sexual assault displays, but does not support any form of rape. I, Alpha Edward Parker, swear that I will keep you tied to me until I make you pay for what you did to my mate," he swore, gripping my chin in a bruising hold. “Not only will you wish for death, but you will beg for it, and it will be too far from you.” I could feel the eyes of the whole pack on us. They probably came to experience a normal wedding, but that couldn't be further from the truth. I was being married off to a groom because he wanted revenge. Tears welled, and I wanted to scream, “I am your mate; I’m the one who saved you, not her.” But I knew no one would believe me. I was his mate, how could he not recognize me? Four years ago, Amanda happened to save a total stranger, but due to a string of misunderstandings, her sister took her place. The stranger then promised a vow of betrothal to his savior. Not seeing any use in correcting the error, Amanda allowed it. That was her biggest mistake because the stranger ended up being her own mate. Caught in a web of lies and confusion, she decides to set herself free by speaking the truth. But her plans are thwarted when her sister turns up dead, and she is pinned as the main suspect. A mate out to seek revenge for another, a forced marriage, an underlying plot, a web of lies, and many dark secrets. How can Amanda navigate all these without losing sight of herself? How will she speak the truth when she has already lost her voice and has been destroyed by her own mate?

"You rejected me without hearing my side," Meghann whispered, refusing to let her tears fall. "I made my choice," Caomh answered coldly. Publicly rejected by the man destined to be her mate, Meghann Clemmie Nelson walks away with nothing but a shattered heart. When Cullen Hayden Arden—the feared Alpha and Caomh's greatest enemy—offers her a fake relationship that could change both their futures, she accepts, believing it's only a temporary arrangement. But as pretend feelings become impossible to ignore, old wounds reopen when fate brings her face-to-face with the man who once discarded her... and the child he believes is his. As buried secrets begin to surface and loyalties are tested, Meghann must decide whether to keep looking back at the love that broke her or embrace the one quietly healing her heart. But when the truth finally comes to light, who was truly meant to be her mate all along?
