He Rejected Marking Ceremony, I Upgraded Mate The very first thing I decided to do after being reborn was to reject the marking ceremony with my Alpha mate Ethan. In my previous life, when Ethan tried to postpone our ceremony for the thirty-second time, I threatened him with the sacred laws of the Moon Goddess. Ethan eventually caved. To pacify my rage, he promised that nothing would interrupt us again. But that was the night his Omega mistress Ivy died. From that moment on, Ethan hated me with every fiber of his being. When I told him I was pregnant, he drowned me in the freezing North Sea. "You and that abomination in your belly deserve to die for her," he spat as he held my head under the water. I died in despair. But when I opened my eyes, I was back at the altar. Ethan looked impatient. "Selena, Ivy says her chest hurts.. We need to postpone the mark again." He expected me to beg. Instead, I unclasped the ceremonial collar and threw it in his face. "Go to her. I quit." Ethan sneered, "Stop acting. Without my scent, you’ll be back crawling on your knees in a week." He didn't know that an hour later, I was knocking on the door of his mortal enemy—Damon, the Tyrant of the North. When I posted a photo of the Winterborn Alpha’s ring on my finger with the caption "Upgrade my mate," Ethan went mad…

Avery never believed rejection could be undone. When her mate publicly denied the bond, she accepted the shame, the silence, and the quiet shrinking of her place in the pack. What she didn’t expect was to carry his pup afterward. The pack healer’s confirmation changes everything. A rejected mate can still conceive, but the pack will not protect her from the man who cast her aside. He holds no rank, no title, and no right over her, yet his proximity is enough to threaten her future and her unborn child. Refusing to let him control the narrative or her body, Avery makes a choice no one expects. She leaves her pack without release, crosses territorial boundaries alone, and offers submission to a new pack on her own terms. It is dangerous. Unprecedented. And the only way to keep her pup safe. In a territory where she has no standing and no allies, Avery must navigate pack politics, suspicion, and the unspoken weight of carrying a rejected mate’s child. But for the first time, every decision is hers.
