"I, Amelie Ashwood, Reject you, Tate Cozad, as my mate. I REJECT YOU!" is what I screamed right before I took the silver blade that I just dipped in a bowl of my own blood to my mate mark. 
Amelie only ever wanted to live a simple life out of the spotlight of her Alpha bloodline. She felt she had that when she found her first mate. After years together, her mate was not the man he claimed to be. Amelie is forced to perform the Rejection Ritual to set herself feel. Her freedom comes at a price, one of which is an ugly black scar.
"Nothing! There's nothing! Bring her back!" I scream with every part of my being. I knew before he said anything. I felt her in my heart say goodbye and let go. At that moment, an unimaginable pain radiated to my core. 
Alpha Gideon Alios loses his mate, on which should be the happiest day of his life, the birth of his twins. Gideon doesn't have time to grieve, left mateless, alone, and a newly single father of two infant daughters.
Amelie Ashwood and Gideon Alios are two broken werewolves that fate has twisted together. This is their second chance at love, or is it their first? As these two fated mates come together, sinister plots come to life all around them. How will they come unite to keep what they deem the most precious safe?

Scars.

　　"I do have one more question. Why did Alpha Mason kick me out of the pack and take my shop?" To be honest, I think that almost hurt worse than the fight. I worked so hard on making my business successful.


　　"It wasn't something he wanted to do, but politically, he had to. Once he realized what was going on, he knew that it could cause his whole pack to be destroyed. He is the Alpha and makes the decisions for his pack, but as in all packs, the Elders hold power too. Karen was part of the Elder Council. I'm sure she kept this from you." As dad spoke, so many things came rushing into my head. She was worse than Tate in my eyes now.


　　"Okay, that explains a few things, but I'm still confused." I need him to explain it adequately. I felt like Karen and her son committed a crime. It shouldn't matter if she were a council member or not.
