"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.

　　~Crack~ This Is the sound I hear as I slam my fist down on my desk. "Nothing! We have nothing! Just bits and pieces of theories, no evidence, no witnesses!" I yell out as I throw my laptop across my office.


　　"You know what we need?" Ulv breaks my tirade.


　　"What! Not your bullshit, that's for sure." I snarl at my wolf. I am in no mood.


　　"To kick someone's ass! Let's go to the training grounds and spare a bit." I can feel his excitement and mine melding together. "Maybe a run as well, and if we still have some tension left, maybe our beautiful Luna will soothe us." Ulv's idea sounds like the perfect way to relieve my stress and tension.


　　"My friend, those are all excellent ideas." The scowl on my face is replaced with a devilish grin as I leave my office and head down to the training grounds. I can't help but think about what has pushed me into this horrible mood.
