Elara Veyne

"Ahh!" She writhed in a haze of moans, her body trembling with conflicting sensations. She loathed this man, yet every fiber of her being reacted to his touch. As his hands began to roam along her waist, she sucked in a sharp breath—the sudden pull of her back zipper sent a shiver down her spine. The metal slider halted at the small of her back, and as it opened, her upper back and waist were exposed, baring her skin to the cool air. "D-Don’t—mmph!" Her protest was smothered by the pillow as his fingers caressed her bare spine, leaving a trail of goosebumps in their wake. With a deep, angry growl, he whispered harshly in her ear, "I'll make you forget every touch, every kiss, every thing about him. From now on, when you're with another man, you'll only see me."

Elara Vance was a withdrawn omega, often overlooked in the Silver Moon Pack for her quiet demeanor and unassuming appearance. But beneath her thick glasses lay a hidden crush on Rhys Knight, the pack's future Alpha and a notorious campus playboy. Rhys scoffed at mate bonds, treating relationships as disposable—until Elara's eighteenth birthday, when he publicly rejected her, turning her into the butt of every joke.

Now, Elara returns transformed—glasses discarded, her hair styled sleek and confident—and Rhys can't take his eyes off her. What if her blood holds a sacred heritage chosen by the Moon Goddess? What if the "humiliation" was part of a larger scheme? And when Rhys, the alpha who once dismissed her, kneels before her new love interest, Liam Thorne, begging for a second chance, who will claim victory in this battle of pride and passion?

Rejected by My Alpha Mate

I stood frozen behind the bathroom door, heart racing as I listened to the heated exchange between Debra and Ethan. The silence that followed Debra's declaration about my new relationship hung heavy in the air.


"You don't know what you're talking about," Ethan finally said, his voice low and controlled. "Rhys isn't the villain you paint him to be."


"No?" Debra scoffed. "Then explain why he destroyed Elara without even giving her a chance to defend herself."


"Because he had proof!" Ethan's voice rose sharply, making me flinch. "Do you think he wanted to believe she betrayed him? He investigated for months after she left."


I pushed the door open slightly wider, unable to stop myself from peeking through the crack. Ethan stood with his fists clenched at his sides, looking like he was fighting to maintain his composure.


"What are you talking about?" Debra demanded, arms crossed.
