In a world where strength determines status, Ava, a seemingly weak and timid werewolf, is rejected by her mate, alpha-to-be Lucas, for being unworthy. Marked as an outcast, she is abandoned by her pack and left to survive in a brutal and unforgiving wilderness. As Ava struggles against rejection, betrayal, and her own insecurities, she discovers a hidden strength within her-a power long suppressed by those who feared her potential. Guided by a mysterious rogue, Ethan, who harbors secrets of his own, Ava learns to harness her abilities and uncover the truth behind her lineage. While Lucas begins to regret his decision, Ava is torn between second chances and the promise of a new love with Ethan. However, her rise is not without challenges, as enemies, both old and new, plot to bring her down. Through trials of the heart and battles for survival, Ava must learn to embrace her destiny, prove her worth, and fight for her place in a world that sought to forsake her. In doing so, she will redefine the meaning of strength, love, and forgiveness, eventually becoming a force that no one, not even the strongest alpha, can ignore.

Chapter 1 The Forgotten Daughter

"Leave her alone, Vivian," Mira, Lila's only friend, intervened, pulling Lila away from the harsh words being thrown at her. "Don't let her get to you."

Vivian's laughter echoed cruelly behind them, but Mira kept her steady hold on Lila's arm, leading her away from the torment. Despite the gentle reassurance, Lila could feel the sting of every insult that had been hurled her way. The Silver Fang Pack was alive with energy tonight, the sound of celebration reverberating through the forest. Inside the packhouse, the atmosphere buzzed with anticipation, but for Lila, the night felt cold and distant.

It was supposed to be a night of joy, a night of discovery - the night she would find her mate, the fateful moment that all wolves longed for. But instead, it had turned into another reminder of her status.

"Lila, why are you lurking there like a shadow?" Vivian sneered, her voice sharp. "Hoping your 'mate' will miraculously appear?"

Lila flinched but didn't respond. She stood at the edge of the grand hall, watching the wolves dance and laugh. Their voices blended into a cacophony that only made her feel smaller.

For years, she had been invisible to everyone but Mira. Her father, Alpha Marcus, had never acknowledged her existence. She was the forgotten daughter, the Alpha's shame. His inability to shift had made her the subject of whispered ridicule, a stain on the pack's reputation. Tonight, as the full moon hung low over the territory, casting its pale glow on the dense forest beyond, it was all too clear that nothing would change.

Vivian's cruel words cut deeper than she cared to admit. Lila clenched her fists, but she said nothing. What was the point? Her life had always been a series of shadows, and tonight was no different. She wasn't even sure if she would have a mate at all. The pain of that realization stabbed through her chest, and she fought to hold back the tears.

Would anyone ever see her for who she truly was? Or would she remain the forgotten daughter of the Silver Fang Pack forever?

"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. 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. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he’s different; and a chance to love her. 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?
