Marina spent five years serving her husband, only to be ridiculed and thrown out of his mansion at the slightest whim. Cast into the cold streets with nowhere to turn, she met a stranger that very night—one who made her weak in the knees. She had no time to mourn her lost marriage before falling into his arms, giving in to a night of intense longings that left her naked on his bed the next morning. She left without a word, thinking it was over. Until he reappeared, determined to take full responsibility of her. Marina thought her life might finally get better, but little did she know, the devil she once knew was far better than the angel she was yet to know.

Aria had always believed in fate until the night it betrayed her. Chosen by the Moon Goddess to be the mate of Alpha Kael of the powerful Shadow Moon Pack, she believed destiny had finally chosen her. But before the entire pack, Kael rejected her, tearing their sacred bond apart and leaving her broken, humiliated, and alone. Marked by a shattered bond and abandoned by the only home she has ever known, Aria is forced into the wilderness with nothing but her wounded wolf and the will to survive. Life beyond the pack is brutal, but it teaches her a truth she never understood before survival is not just instinct, it is strength. Pain becomes her teacher, and every step away from Shadow Moon forges her into something far more dangerous than the girl Kael cast aside. When the infamous Night Fang Alpha offers her refuge among his ruthless pack, Aria begins to discover a new side of herself. The darkness she once feared slowly becomes her greatest weapon. But Kael’s regret refuses to stay buried, and the echo of the bond he destroyed begins to draw attention from powerful enemies and forces tied to destiny itself. Now Aria must choose her own path. Will she remain the hunted wolf everyone expects her to be, or rise stronger than fate and become a wolf who kneels to no one?

After I've completed 98 tasks for my fiancee, Cheryl Landeau, she finally agrees to marry me once I've completed the 99th task for her. For that task, I'm required to pick her up outside her company. On the day I stand outside Cheryl's company with a huge flower bouquet in my arms, I don't see her at all despite having waited till late night. Soon after, I get hospitalized due to a high fever. When I tap on my phone, the first thing I see is a photo of the marriage certificate belonging to Cheryl and her assistant, Jason York. Jason even includes a caption with the photo. "My mom is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. Please take good care of me from now on, my dear wife." The next day, I hang a banner outside the company. "May Ms. Landeau and Mr. York grow old in harmony and be blessed with children." All of my colleagues are stunned, to say the least. At that moment, Cheryl quickly pulls me into her office. She then explains, "Jason's mom is severely ill. Her death wish is watch him get married. What's wrong with me fulfilling her wish? Can't you show more kindness toward Jason? "Now, stop throwing that tantrum of yours and get rid of the banner. Once Jason's mom passes away, I'll file for a divorce from him." I just smile as I set off more fireworks at the doorway. "Oh, you don't have to bother with a divorce. I'm worried that his mom might come back to life soon. Let's just end things here."

Rejected. Sold. Marked by a cursed Lycan. Camilla thought she’d lost everything, until the Lycan's mark didn’t kill her. Now caught between a deadly past and a dangerous bond, she must choose who to trust before her mate bond seals the wrong fate.

Aria Hale spent her entire life believing the Moon Goddess created someone just for her. Someone who would see her. Choose her. Love her. She didn’t expect her fated mate to be Alpha Blake Thorn—the golden boy of the pack… or that he would reject her in front of everyone on her eighteenth birthday. Humiliated, heartbroken, and stripped of her place in the pack, Aria runs into the Forbidden Woods, praying for the pain to stop. But instead of death, she finds something far more dangerous: The Dark King. Erevan is ancient, feared, and impossibly powerful. To the world he is a myth. To Aria, he is the first person who looks at her like she is worth the world. And when she collapses in his arms, he does the unthinkable— He claims her as his mate. In the Dark Realm, Aria begins to unlock abilities she never knew she had. Abilities that were never meant to exist in the mortal world. Abilities that could destroy everything she once called home. When she returns to her old pack, Alpha Blake realizes the awful truth: Rejecting her was the biggest mistake of his life. But it’s too late. Aria is no longer the girl who begged for love. She is the mate of a king. Chosen. Claimed. Unstoppable. And she will never kneel again. A rejected-mate romance filled with betrayal, power, jealousy, possessive love, and a heroine who rises from broken to legendary.

CONTAINS ADULT SCENES! “Alena, I love the way you scream my name with me inside you.” Darren's lips curled up, his eyes enjoying the sight of Alena's flushed face beneath his muscular body. “Darren.” “Do you want this to end, Alena? Like how you left me on our engagement day, or do you want me to spend the entire night punishing you?” Darren asked, widening the smirk on his lips. Alena Wilson left her engagement to Darren Scott to marry Jason White, the man she thought loved her deeply. Alena was even willing to give up her luxurious life as heir to the Wilson family fortune just to be with Jason. However, Jason betrayed their marriage. He had an affair with Kyle Muller, Alena's close friend. Alena was humiliated, insulted, and divorced dishonorably. Jason's family kicked Alena out of the house that was actually purchased with Alena's own money. Jason's family felt victorious for having discarded Alena like trash. At a party, they were all shocked to see Alena step out of a luxury car, wearing a dress that further accentuated her beauty. Even the three handsome and influential CEOs who were also present there, Darren Scott, Gavin Scott, and Adrian Scott, walked over to Alena and each extended their hands while saying in unison, “Miss Wilson, would you like to dance with me?”

Rejected. Humiliated. Broken. On the night she was meant to find love, Aria lost everything. Publicly rejected by her fated mate and cast aside like she was nothing, she fled into the darkness—wounded, alone, and hunted by the shame she couldn’t escape. But the forest didn’t offer safety. It offered him. A man more dangerous than any rejection. A King feared by every pack. A predator who doesn’t ask, doesn’t hesitate… and doesn’t take no for an answer. He didn’t save her. He claimed her. Bound by a force she doesn’t understand, Aria finds herself trapped under the rule of a ruthless Alpha King whose presence ignites both fear and something far more dangerous. He is cold, dominant, and impossibly powerful—and he’s decided she belongs to him. Now, there are rules. Rules she must follow. Rules she must survive. Rules that blur the line between control and desire. But Aria is not as weak as they believe. Beneath her pain lies something rare. Something powerful. Something that could either destroy her… or make her unstoppable. As her past refuses to let her go and her rejected mate begins to regret the biggest mistake of his life, Aria is caught between two worlds—one that broke her… and one that threatens to consume her completely. And the deeper she falls into the King’s dark world, the more dangerous the truth becomes: She is no longer just a rejected wolf. She is something far more powerful. Something worth fighting for. Something worth destroying kingdoms for. And when her true strength awakens… She won’t just survive. She’ll make them all kneel.
