“Rebecca Sinclaire,” he announced, his voice carrying through the night air with terrible finality. “I reject you as my mate.”
The words slammed into me like a physical blow. A searing pain ripped through my chest, so intense I doubled over, gasping.
The mate bond was being severed. Torn apart by his rejection. I clutched at my heart, feeling like someone had plunged a blazing knife into it.
“No,” I whimpered, reaching for him. “Please, Xander. Don’t do this.”
He stepped back, avoiding my touch. “Furthermore, as Alpha of the Shadowclaw Pack, I hereby banish you from our territory. You have until dawn to gather your belongings and leave. After that, you will be considered a rogue and treated as such.”
I was born with a blind wolf—and for that, I was mocked, rejected by my fated mate Alpha Xander, and cast aside as a rogue. Alone and starving, I thought my story was over… until the Moon Goddess gave me a second chance.
Maximus Thorne, the ruthless Alpha of Stormhowl, lost everything to my former pack. When we cross paths, hatred burns hot, but so does the bond. He’s my second-chance mate, the last person I expected and the only one who sees me.
I want to hate him. He wants revenge. But fate doesn’t care what we want. And with Maximus, I’m not just broken. I’m becoming something stronger.
