Luciana and Alister must fight for their love and their pack's survival against all odds, risking everything they have to emerge victorious. Will their love withstand the trials they face, or will they crumble and fall?

“But…” I choked out, pain spiking through my chest. “Please Kael, you can’t—” “You’d be surprised at the things I can and would do to you if you don’t fuck off right now.” His breath was suddenly in my face. “you know what? I Kael Thorne, future Alpha of the hallow pack, reject you.” Next thing I knew, I was knocked on my ass in front of his study and the door slammed hard in my face. Axl was as impressionable as it gets with an ego the size of an ice boulder on future Alpha Prince Kael. In her head, once she grows older, she will marry the prince of her Kingdom who would love her as much as she'd loved him since she was a child... Basically a typical case of delulu. But what she didn't expect was carrying a child for the Prince who was disgusted by her. Would she run away with the baby or fight for her space in his heart?

"He rejected me in front of the whole pack but the Moon Goddess paired me with a monster more powerful than them all." Lyra was just an omega, weak, unwanted, and laughed at by the same wolves who watched her boyfriend become the next Alpha. He promised her love and power but on her 18th birthday, she walked in on him with the pack’s top bully. That same night, the Moon Goddess paired them but he rejected her publicly. Humiliated, heartbroken, and alone, Lyra runs and bumps right into Alpha Kade. The ruthless, feared, and gruesome man that everyone in her pack warned her about. The bond snaps between them, but Lyra flees before he can claim her. Locked in grief and confusion, she soon uncovers some truth: Her mother didn’t die, she was murdered but by who? Her father is alive. But he is a vampire king who wants her to take his throne. Her blood is not ordinary. She is half wolf, half vampire. As her powers awaken, she begins to fall for Alpha Kade but the past they say, never stays buried. Because the Alpha she loves was the one who killed her mother.

Ashley was once the strongest warrior, the most gifted healer, and the future Luna. But everything changed the day she was kidnapped. When rogues took her, she reached out to her mate, Alpha Jace—only to be met with a cold “contact later” while he stayed by Carina’s side, his childhood friend. “Even your Alpha doesn’t care if you live or die,” the rogue sneered. Ashley escaped on her own—but lost her wolf, Amy. Then came the cruelest truth: she was never the mate. Just a pawn. A stand-in for Carina. Ashley thought she was doomed to live in Carina’s shadow. Until the Lycan King arrived—and took her away.

Hazel, a weak omega, comes across Alpha Austin on Thanksgiving. He is beautiful, manly, with a gaze that could make any omega's heart flutter. And she fell hard. She decided to take her feelings to the grave because she knew that he wouldn't even take a look at her. But when Austin is suddenly rejected by his long-time girlfriend, and a mishap sends Hazel straight into his arms, he leaves her with the tingling sensation of a mate's mark on her neck and announces her as his mate. Hazel is forced to agree, but even as she watches herself in the mirror, the mate mark staring right back at her, she knows deep down that his mate is someone else. Someone...who wants the position just as much as she does, and would do anything to get it.

Auri Meadows, 19, was waiting for the day her mate would reject her. After an attack on her pack, she had been left blind and scarred. With how she looked, she knew no one would want her and she would be free to live out the secret life she had built. But Alpha Logan wasn’t about to let his mate go.

But as her secrets are revealed, their mate bond continues to be tested and leaves both of them wondering if the Moon Goddess turned their back on them.

Selene Winters was raised to be the perfect Luna—elegant, quiet, and completely devoted to her fated mate, Damon Voss. She thought love would be enough. That being chosen by the Moon Goddess guaranteed a happy ending. She was wrong. On the night of their mating ceremony, Alpha Damon rejected her in front of the entire Bloodhowl Pack. Called her weak. Unworthy. A mistake. And when no one stepped in—not even her family—Selene did the only thing she could. She ran. Everyone assumed she died in the cursed Shadow Forest. No one survives that place. But they don’t know what really lives there. Two years later, Selene returns. Not as the broken girl Damon left behind—but as an Alpha. Strong. Commanding. Untouchable. And she’s not interested in forgiveness. Because the bond? It’s gone. The Luna he rejected? She's the Alpha he’ll regret.
