“Nothing hurts more than being hurt by the single person you thought would never betray you.” Twenty-one-year-old Ariella Davenport learned this cruel part of truth when the man she sacrificed everything for, her fated Mate, Vaughn Collins, shattered her heart with betrayal. Three years ago, she walked away from her family, her status, and her legacy to be with him. But what did she get in return— betrayal? Choosing vengeance over heartbreak, Ariella seeked an alliance with the last person Vaughn would ever expect. Vaughn’s enigmatic stepbrother and sworn rival, Zach Killian Winchester. When Ariella proposed a partnership, Zach countered with something far more dangerous: marriage. With Zach’s cunning and unwavering presence, Ariella took away everything that she had given to Vaughn till now. But when the dust of vengeance began to settle, she found herself ensnared in a web she never saw coming. She thought she was using Zach. She didn't realize he was setting a trap of his own. For her it was a revenge game while for him it was a love game. He married her to make her his. **** “Why did you marry me, Zach!” Ariella's voice was low, steady, yet threaded with uncertainty as she looked him in the eye. Zach’s hand found her cheek, his eyes glowing with a quiet, dangerous intensity. A faint smile curved his lips as he whispered, “Because we were always meant to be. The Moon Goddess made a mistake, and I'm correcting it.” *** Book 2 : of Davenport Family Series. Book 1 : Alpha Alexei's Remorse.

“I, Julius Armstrong, reject Doris Charles as my mate.” The laughter came right after. This was the second time my mate rejected me because I cannot talk. In the pack, they call me dumb not because I am stupid, but because I am mute. When I turned eighteen, my first mate rejected me for that reason. Today, it was the Gamma. He is twenty-one, the same age as the Alpha and Beta. This was his third rejection. The first girl was too fat, the second was too short and now, I was dumb. I never wanted to attend the mating ceremony. I knew how it would end, but my stepmother forced me to go, and my stepsisters came just to watch me get mocked again. The next day, wolves who had found their mates returned to officially claim them before the Alpha and pack leaders. I went only because I was forced, just to stand there and watch my stepsister get chosen. Then something happened that no one expected. The Alpha claimed me as his mate in front of everyone. Was I shocked? Yes. Did I believe him? No. Did I think it was a cruel joke? Absolutely. Because no Alpha would choose a rejected, mute girl like me.

Iris Whitmore's world shatters when her Alpha husband Damon rejects and exiles her while pregnant, choosing his manipulative half-sister Clarissa instead. Poisoned, framed, and left to die in a storm, Iris is rescued by Donovan Ashford, Alpha of rival Nightshade Pack, who offers sanctuary without demands. Three years later, Iris has transformed from broken omega to confident healer, raising her daughter Haven in peace. When her grandmother Sage appears with shocking news—Iris is actually Alpha-blooded, her true nature suppressed by dark magic—everything changes. As Iris unlocks her powers, she discovers Donovan is her fated mate, their bond hidden by the same spell that stole her identity. Forced to attend the Regional Summit, Iris must confront her past while protecting Haven, whose unprecedented magical abilities make her a target. The conspiracy runs deeper than betrayal: ancient witch-wolf Lucian Cross and Clarissa orchestrated everything to create the perfect sacrifice—Haven—for a dark ritual. With her mate bond finally complete and her Alpha power unleashed, Iris returns not as the victim who fled, but as a force of nature ready to reclaim what's hers. She'll protect her daughter, lead her pack, and prove that what was meant to break her only made her unbreakable. Sometimes the greatest revenge is becoming everything they said you couldn't be.

To the world, Felix and I were fated by the Moon Goddess, an Omega and her destined Alpha. Only I knew how much he despised me. At his Alpha ceremony, he humiliated me before the entire pack by choosing my half-sister, Bianca, over me. “An Omega who plays with herbs? You’ll never be worthy of me.” In my past life, I begged him not to reject me. He didn’t, but he made me suffer instead. My stepmother and Bianca framed me for poisoning the pack. He never defended me. He locked me in heat, then turned around and marked Bianca, like I was nothing. She wore his mark. I wore his shame. I was framed, cast out, and discarded. When he publicly crowned Bianca as his Luna, our bond shattered and so did my wolf. It was then I realized, he had never loved me. But now, I’m back. Back on the day of his Alpha ceremony. In this life, I’d rather suffer than be his mate again. “I, Reiley, rejected you, Felix, as my mate.”
