He rejected me in front of the entire pack. Now he says I'm his fated mate.

I survived twenty-eight years as the invisible girl—the crippled omega everyone ignored. I built a life in the shadows, protected my found family, and never asked for more. Then my first heat hit in the middle of pack dinner, and everything went to hell.

Thorne Blackwood is the alpha who killed his own father. Ruthless. Brutal. Untouchable. When the mate bond snapped into place, I thought he'd claim me. Instead, he looked at me like I was dirt on his boot and told the entire pack I wasn't worthy to stand at his side.

So I did the only thing I could—I had the bond severed. Cut him out. Made myself free.

Except his wolf didn't get the message.

Now he's stalking me, leaving gifts on my porch, attacking any male who gets too close. He says we've been mates since we were nine years old. That he took a potion to forget so he could grow strong enough to protect me. That every brutal thing he's done was to make the pack safe for me.

He wants a second chance. He wants me to forgive him. He wants me in his bed, in his cabin, wearing his claiming mark for everyone to see.

But I've learned the hard way that wanting someone doesn't mean you get to keep them.

When a violent coup threatens everything they've built, Wren must choose: run from the alpha who shattered her heart, or fight beside him for the future they both deserve.

Perfect for readers who love possessive alphas, rejected mate redemption, found family, and fated mates who have to earn their happy ending. This full-length wolf shifter romance features a scarred heroine who refuses to be anyone's victim, a grumpy alpha learning to grovel, and a love story that proves some things are worth bleeding for.
