Mates were supposed to protect each other, but why do mine keep shredding my soul. ********* As Alpha Ronald's mate, I thought I'd hit the jackpot, but time proved that that was the worst thing to ever happen to me. Now I was left wondering if the goddess herself had forsaken me. Just when I had given up on everything, something I thought impossible happened to an Omega like me. I found another mate, another Alpha. Will he be my salvation or my downfall? Would this one treat me right or would he be just like my other mate? With my heart still fragile from all the abuse I'd endured, I was not certain I could afford to trust again. Yet, something about this stranger seemed to draw me in, making me wonder if I will finally get the love I deserve, or he is just a bigger monster in a suit.

"I, Jake Ferrel, the Alpha King's only son and the future leader of this pack, am rejecting you, Nora Preston, as my future Luna and mate." "You better get lost, you hear me? Don't you dare bring shame to our people." "Look at yourself, you're just an ugly cow. You ain't never gonna find a mate like me. Now get the hell outta here and stop burdening our pack." Nora’s life took a wild turn from mistreatment in her pack. Her sister Maria had it all, leaving Nora in the shadows. Things got crazier when Nora found out Jake, the Alpha’s son and her crush was her mate. Excited she told him only to find him cheating with her sister. Jake rejected her, saying she wasn’t good enough to be his future Luna. Heartbroken, Nora wandered into the woods, saw weird things and ended up with a stranger, thinking it was a dream. But surprise! The Moon Goddess gave Nora a second chance mate: Michael a strong and caring Alpha from Nexton Pack. Nora disappeared before learning his name. Weeks later, Nora discovered she was pregnant. Now, she wonders if fate will bring her and Alpha Michael together. Unknown to her, Michael’s under a curse from the Moon Goddess and only Nora’s love and their son might be able to break the curse. Can her love free Michael and his pack from the Moon Goddess’s curse?

Desperate, she finds herself forced to seek help from the very man who broke her heart: Casper, now a powerful Alpha with a new mate. While trying to find her children, Naomi crosses paths with Lancelot, a coffee shop manager with a dark past and an unusual truth: he is also her Mate. But Lancelot is more than he appears — a medium wolf, belonging to a feared and misunderstood lineage.

Between confrontations with wild wolves, revelations about hidden species, and the awakening of a new bond, Naomi finds herself torn between two men—the Alpha who rejected her, and the wolf who accepted her completely. In a race against time, she will have to discover who is behind the kidnapping of her children and to whom her heart belongs.

“Yes, you have to. The mate bond deserves that respect in the least. If you want to reject me, do it looking me in my eyes.” I had no idea how he moved so fast — probably courtesy of his Alpha abilities — but he stood before me. His fingers lifted my chin so my eyes could meet his gaze. “Reject me by looking me in the eye.” His eyes searched my face. I shook my head as I struggled to hold back tears. He pinned me on both sides, my eyes widened in slight fear when I saw the frustration and anger. “Reject this!” He growled before slamming his lips into mine. Scarlett Melton was moved from her old pack by her stepfather who moved to Stone Shadow pack to find the family he abandoned a long time ago. Being a weak Omega with a health condition who has been bullied, abused and insulted all her life, she does not expect to be mated to the first son of the most powerful Alpha who’s also her stepsister’s brother-in-law. She is happy about the bond but her manipulative stepfather has other plans and now, she has to give Baron Salvatore a good reason why she rejected their mate bond even when her heart and eyes are saying otherwise.

"You lazy fool, what the hell are you still doing sitting down here?" Her stepmother raged, "Are you thinking about Alpha William." She smirked. "You better get him out of your mind because he is way above your league." Jane could feel inside of her cringe at her step mothers words. "I…I.." Jane stuttered, her head downcast "Enough with the stuttering, it's past dinner time, and you are still here." She yelled. "You better behave yourself or face more consequences for your clumsiness." Her father chided. "You must not be reminded of your duties every other day."

On our third mating anniversary, I was shocked to discover that my mate Ethan Rivers had been spending nights with his childhood sweetheart, and even the mating certificate he gave me was fake. When I confronted him about it, Ethan coldly accused me of being ungrateful. "I performed the mating ritual with Bella to help her deal with her family's pressure to mate. How can you be so selfish?" "It's not like I don't love you. It's just a mating certificate - why are you making such a big deal out of it? I was planning to perform the real ritual with you this year, but I never expected you to be so greedy. Aria, you really disappoint me." I blocked him completely, and he immediately took Bella on their honeymoon. Five years later, we reunited at an elite pack gathering. His pack was thriving, and beside him stood Bella Rose, adorned in jewels with a perfect smile. Seeing me crouched on the ground searching through cake scraps in the trash, he clicked his tongue impatiently. "Look what you've become after leaving me. You scorned the fake certificate back then, but now even if you threw yourself at me, nobody would want you!" "For old times' sake, if you kneel down and apologize to Bella, I might let you come back as our servant." I had no time to deal with him. My son had mischievously hidden my eighty-million-dollar mating ring in some cake, and I needed to find it quickly. Otherwise, when his father arrived, the little one would be in trouble again.

"I... I don't really know you and you also don't need to bother yourself much because I'm going to reject you and we can just go our separate ways." "Reject me?" He scoffed in disbelief. "Why would you want to do that?" "Because no one wants me. I'm literally considered a failure by everyone around me, even my own mother doesn't want me. I was supposed to get married to my mate yesterday, but he didn't go through with our wedding and left me at the alter, he rejected me in front of everyone and picked my step sister over me, turning me into a subject of mockery for everyone!" Tana who is devastated when her dream wedding turns into a nightmare. Alpha Philip, the man she has loved for years, abandons and rejects her on their wedding day for her step sister Veronica. Banished and alone, she meets Zander Cane, the Lycan King of the Silver Moon Pack, who offers her a chance at love and revenge.

“Caleb,” I managed, my voice breaking. “What are you saying?” “I have to protect the pack,” he said, looking everywhere but at me. “Protect the pack? What does that even mean?” “There’s a prophecy… if I take you as my mate, it could doom us all. I have to keep the pack safe, even if that means…” His voice faltered, but his grip on me remained steady. “No.” I pulled my hands back, the anger and hurt surging all at once. How could he throw away everything we’d built and because of some prophecy? “You’re the Alpha. You’re supposed to trust in us, trust in me.” “I’m sorry, Emma,” he said to me, then out loud. “I reject you, Emma, as my mate and hereby annul this mating ceremony" ♡♡♡ Alpha Caleb Blackwood and Luna-in-training, Emma Rivers are destined to be mates. But on the night of their bonding ceremony, Caleb shocks the entire pack by rejecting Emma, leaving her heartbroken. Out of pain and humiliation, Emma leaves behind the only home she's ever had. Unknown to Caleb, Emma is already carrying his child when she leaves.

“Too wet, baby…” On the night of Lyra’s 18th birthday, she was planning to propose to her mate, Rowan—until she walked in on him having sex with her best friend, Callia. Heartbroken, Lyra begged her Alpha father to banish them both, but he dropped a bombshell: Callia is her half-sister. As an Alpha-blooded she-wolf, Lyra was required to join the Alpha King’s Queen Luna Selection. Out of revenge, she exposed Callia as an illegitimate girl, forcing her and Rowan apart. When they arrived at the palace, Callia quickly turned the other candidates against her. One night, while walking back to her room alone, Lyra caught a scent that made her and her wolf go wild. She followed it to an unfamiliar room—only to find a stunning naked man pleasuring himself. His jet-black hair and glowing golden eyes sent a jolt through her entire body. Who was he? And if the Alpha King found out she’d barged into a naked man’s room in the middle of the night… would he kill her?
