"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.

　　"OK, do your worst!" I jokingly say to Celeste's "Glam Squad."


　　"Oh, honey! Stop it. You are going to scare the twins!" Celeste retorts.


　　I look over at my daughters, enjoying a bubble bath. "They look fine to me."


　　"Relax, you are going to crack your mud mask." Sam, the glam squad leader, says.


　　"Yes, ma'am!" I give her a salute.


　　I lean back and try to relax, but I have so much on my mind. Someone tried to harm my baby. Would they try and hurt the twins? Tate and Karen still haven't been found, and I had a group of she-wolves that didn't respect me as their Luna. Along with all my pack duties and changes, I was implementing. Honestly, I don't know if I will ever be able to relax again.


　　I feel two sets of tiny hands grabbing my arms. I look down, and the girls are out of their bath. "Mommy, why do you have green stuff on your face?" Rose asks.


　　"It's called a mud mask. It helps make your skin beautiful." I make a silly face at them.
