When Emma turns 20, she finds her soon to be beta mate, believing that would improve her life. Emma envisions a brighter future, only to have her hopes shattered by Hudson's deceitful betrayal and cruel intentions. Locked in the dungeon because of her rejection, Emma has no choice but escape. 
Destiny, however, has a different path for Emma. 
Bennett Campbell, Alpha from the Silvercrest Pack, stumbles upon her and brings her to safety. The surprise deepens when Hunter, the pack's esteemed doctor, and Parker, the youngest of the Campbell brothers, discover that Emma is also their fated mate.
Awakening to the protective presence of three powerful men, Emma navigates her newfound sanctuary with caution and gratitude. Will Emma accept her mates? Will the pack accept her? Will the warmth and understanding of Campbell brothers mend her wounded spirit?

Once Rejected, Thrice Desired

　　My gaze drifted away from Bennett's hopeful face and landed on Parker, who stood a short distance away, his eyes fixed on the ground. His frown was deep, his brows furrowed in discontent. My lips twitched as I took in his disgruntled expression.


　　Despite the tension between us, I found Parker's sulky demeanor amusing. I had never seen him so defeated, so... human. My heart skipped a beat as I realized that I was actually enjoying his company, even in his misery. Maybe because I didn't want an intern fight between the three brothers.


　　Parker's eyes flicked up, catching my gaze. For a moment, we just stared at each other, my amusement sparkling in my eyes, Parker's frustration simmering in his. Then, Parker's face darkened, and he looked away, his jaw clenched in annoyance.


　　My smile grew, and I felt a pang of affection for the brooding man. I turned back to Bennett, who was still waiting for my answer.
