"I, Valerie Ava Montrell…reject you, Alpha Ronald Ewan, and the Blood Moon Pack as my pack!" "Don't you dare, Omega! You will regret it," Ronald seethed, clutching his chest in pain as the bond snapped. Before he could reach me, Alpha Niklaus stepped forward, lifting me into his arms and striding out. "Keep the girl down, Alpha Niklaus." Niklaus only tightened his hold on me, his gaze sweeping over them. "Valerie is no longer a member of this pack," he declared, before cupping my face with surprising gentleness. "And I am not leaving here without her, because she is my mate." "You are f*ck*ng lying!" Ronald bellowed, a growl vibrating through his chest."Prove to us that she is your mate." My new mate let out a low chuckle. "And how do they prove the mate bond? Will a kiss do?" His eyes locked with mine, asking for permission. My heart raced, but I found myself nodding. Niklaus closed the distance between us and captured my lips in a kiss. My knees went weak instantly, the mate bond surging to life and intensifying what should have been a simple kiss. Mates are supposed to protect each other—but why do mine keep tearing my soul apart? As Alpha Ronald's mate, I thought I'd hit the jackpot. But time proved that it was the worst thing that could ever happen to me. I was left wondering if even the goddess herself had forsaken me. Just when I had given up on everything, the impossible happened: I found another mate, another Alpha. Would he be my salvation—or my downfall? Would he treat me with the care I'd longed for, or would he turn out to be just like the one before him? With my heart still fragile from the abuse I had endured, trusting again seemed impossible. Yet something about this stranger pulled me in, making me wonder: could I finally have the love I deserve, or am I about to face an even greater monster in disguise?

Set to make him lose the way she did, she fled in the night leaving him shattered by dawn. Years passed and they crossed part again, now he wants her back, he needs his heir to secure his throne. Will she let go of the past grudges and accept his love now that he's willing to give it? Or will she stick with his brother who was always there for her even when he abandoned her?

“You’re just like a sister to me.” Those were the actual words that broke the camel’s back. Not after what just happened. Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other’s arms. I knew from the beginning that Tristan Maverick was a line I shouldn’t cross. He wasn’t just anyone, he was my brother’s best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting. But that night… we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real.... so I begged him to touch me. To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind. And he did. He held me like I was something fragile. Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe. Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could. So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.

It’s Tristan. And he's not the guy I left behind. He's a biker. An Alpha. And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.

Seth added, his words filled with unwavering conviction. Kurt tsked, stepping closer to Dirk, his gaze intense as he looked down at their whimpering mate.
