THE WOLF KING'S BRIDE
Werewolf They said the prophecy was an ancient myth-whispered, tucked between the covers of bedtime tales, always ending in blood. But Aria was always drawn to the forbidden, to the whisper of trees after sunset, to the wolf-song that lulled her to sleep.
Born under a dwindling moon, with a silver crescent stamped barely above her heart, she was not the same from the start. The village midwife had gone pale when she'd caught sight of the mark. Her mother had held her tighter, whispering prayers. The old stories warned that a girl like her would call the Wolf King back.
No one ever said what he would do once he came back.
Now, she knew.
On the night of the Blood Moon, he came out of the forest, tall and unyielding, his eyes burning embers and his voice a wisp of smoke that curled around her. He didn't speak at first-he only looked at her, as if she was the last piece in a puzzle, he'd been trying for centuries to finish.
"Waited lifetimes for you," he whispered, his hand cradling her cheek, rough and warm. His touch shouldn't have shivered down her spine-but it did.
She should have screamed. Should have run.
Yet her body leaned into his, as if it recalled something her mind had forgotten long ago.
"You're mine, little moon," he whispered against her flesh. "Not because the prophecy requires it. but because I've burned for you in every single life I've ever had."
Her heart was racing in her chest, caught between fear and desire.
She was no warrior. No princess. Just a girl with too many questions and not enough sense to say no to the crazy fire in his eyes.
And yet, when he pulled her into his arms and carried her into the forest, when the pack closed around them and the stars wheeled overhead, Aria didn't fight.
She held on tight.
For deep in her heart, something wild stirred.
Something that wanted to love him.
Or kill him.
The Wolf King had claimed her as his.
But Aria was no one's prey. THREADS OF THE DAMNED

What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner.
King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn’t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him.

But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?

chavontheauthor "You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck.

He pressed his lips against mine, and his kiss grew more aggressive, more possessive as I felt my legs weaken.
What was I doing?
In a split-second, I pulled away and slapped him hard across the face. Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement.
"You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate."
"And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go."
"Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you." Beauty And The Beta

"What is your name?" He asked.
"Nyx."
"Nyx what?"
"Nyx Evander."
"Good." He hummed, "I am going to reject you."
He said and I felt a stabbing pain in my chest.
I wanted to beg him not to, to tell him that I will do anything for him not to reject me.
"And you are going to accept my rejection and forget about me, we can never be together! I am an Alpha King, I do not need a mate like you."
I cried more as his words rolled off his tongue, "Stop your crying, it is fucking irritating!" He said and I sobbed.
"You are going to leave after the rejection and never set foot within my territory again, mutt!" He warned, "Is that clear?"
I nodded at him and watched him do what I feared the most.
"I, Lycus Dardanos." He began, "Alpha King of the werewolf community, the next in command after the wolf's council and the Alpha of Blackmoon pack reject you Nyx E..."
He never got to finish his words as a blinding white light suddenly shone through the room followed with a harsh gush of wind that threw me back against the wall.
