Outcast and wolfless Amelia Hayes has been bullied her whole life. Before turning eighteen, she survives the fire, and her handsome alpha, Ryden Braxton, rejects and banishes her. Two years later, she returns beautiful and strong, but she also brings threats to the pack. While Ryden wants to claim her, she's also mystified by her constant sensual dreams of a stranger.   With werewolves dying in mysterious deaths, she has to entrust her secret to her mate- the power of fire within her that can cause more destruction than salvation. When her past, which she has no memory of, pulls forward to her present, she becomes so drawn to a dangerous Alpha King Lucius with a primal instinct to claim her- the very same man in her dreams. After too many betrayals in his pack, Ryden has to work with his ruthless rival to protect his mate against their formidable foe.  Lucius has waited too long to reunite with Amelia, but has to put his anger aside to get his revenge against the being who killed his wife and his entire pack twenty years ago. With Amelia still bound to her past and present, will she choose between the two alphas who equally love her, or choose the one who sacrifices a lot for her to live?

Chapter 1 PROLOGUE

AMELIA

Tahoe, twenty-six months ago

I wondered how long it would take to die. So this was how I died- so brutal- burn to ashes. What did I do to deserve this? Was this what it felt like to be trapped in hell for eternity?

Smoke and fire were the only things I could see, obliterating the home where I grew up.

"Help!" I screamed out loud as I pulled my knees to my chest and wrapped my arms around them as I watched the fiery flames devour my bedroom door, leaving me no way to escape. The crackling sound was horrifying.

I was the weakest, the tiniest in the pack. At sixteen, I couldn't even call myself a werewolf as I hadn't shifted yet, which always got me bullied.

Tears blurred my eyes. Thick smoke began suffocating my lungs, making it hard to breathe. Sweat covered my whole body as heat seemingly slowly melted my skin.

I'd never been so terrified in my entire life until today as the flames began crawling over the pink carpeted floor. In point of fact, I didn't want to die this way. If I only had another chance, but there was no other option. I didn't make miracles. Though I prayed to the Moon Goddess, she wasn't listening anymore.

"Zeph! Mom! Dad! Please, help!" I coughed furiously. I could no longer see anything in my room.

Windows. I swiftly turned to the window, it was covered with a huge flame, too.

"I'm so sorry." I laid back in bed and curled myself into a ball, accepting my fate. As I endured the pain, I kept the beautiful memories in my thoughts before the fire began licking my skin, and what it was like a hot molten ball of fire struck me from behind, exploding my lungs.

I arched my back and clutched my shirt, gasping as an excruciating pain erupted in my chest. My eyes were cracked wide as I stared up at the burning ceiling.

Was this what it felt like to be burned alive?

I crawled off the burning bed, and then out of nowhere, I smelled pines. For a split second, a strong wind roared in a rush and charged through the room.

A tall man with flowy long white hair appeared. I couldn't see his face, but I was sure he was a man. The last thing I heard was an airy and soft voice before I passed out. "You're not going to die today."

***

I woke up dripping with sweat. My entire body felt like burning from the inside, yet I was shivering, and chilling from the outside. I licked my dry lips, as parched as if I was left to die somewhere in the desert.

How was I still alive? Was I still alive? I heard murmurs from behind the walls. I turned and twisted in bed. My chest was so painful that it was run over by a truck, and flattened by a roller.

When my body trembled again, I mumbled, "Mom."

The door creaked, and someone came in- it was my adoptive brother. I could smell his scent-a woodsy, musky, and spiced. Then I felt a hand on my forehead.

"Amelia, can you hear me?"

"Z-Zeph?"

"Yes, it's me." The mattress shifted. "I'm glad you're awake now."

"How long?"

"Three days. You were at the hospital for three days, but even Mom couldn't figure out what was going on with you. We can't risk you getting poked by the doctors and finding out our secret, so we brought you to the pack house. You're in my room."

"I thought I died." My teeth tattered.

"Me, too. I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you when it happened." Zeph held my hand.

"You were saving the world. You saved it." My brother was with Alpha Ryden trying to save our world from a monster Cyrius. I was glad they did.

"What happened, Am?"

I cracked my eyes open. They were blurry at first, until his tired worried face became clear. What I wasn't expecting was the shock on his face- his eyes bulged, staring at me.

I cleared my throat. "W-what's wrong?"

He let my hand go and stood up, then stepped back in terror.

"You're scaring me, Zeph."

"I'm sorry, Am." The way he swallowed hard, scared me.

I looked at myself. I was wearing jammies that I didn't recognize they were mine. I patted my face. I didn't see any burns, nor did my arms or hands. Then it hit me.

My heart started to pound as I lifted my gaze at my brother. "What happened?"

"I was hoping you could tell me."

"I'm sorry about the house. Where are Mom and Dad?"

"They'll be here soon. They're worried about you. We thought-" He swallowed hard again. "We thought we'd lost you. How is it even possible, Am? No one could have survived that fire."

"I don't know." I pulled the blanket over my body when I began to shake again. "Can I get a Tylenol, please?"

"Let Mom check you first." I could still hear the worry in his voice no matter how hard he tried to look strong.

I shut my eyes when it was too much. "I didn't burn the house."

"You know, people think you were suicidal after the bullying." He came back to sit on his bed, putting the wet towel on my forehead.

I gasped as the cold towel pressed against my skin. "I swear to the Goddess, I didn't set the house on fire. I was sleeping, Zeph. You believe me, do you?"

"Of course."

"That's all I need."

I might have passed out again. I woke up with the yellow light illuminating the room from the lamp on the nightstand.

I sucked in a breath as I felt that I wasn't alone. A tall shadow lurking in the corner of the room moved, and I knew exactly who was it without seeing his face.

Then the scent of intense deep woodsy amplified the fresh citrusy and cedar, a note of captivating vanilla that left a trail of heightened sensuality.

I sucked another breath as Alpha Ryden stood straight and took steps in my direction. My heart began to pump so hard. It made it hard to breathe.

He stopped just right at the foot of the bed and stared at me intensely. With his smell getting so strong it blew my mind. I could barely hear when he called my name. Apparently, his scent became like the most delicious thing on earth. It was addicting.

And then it hit me.

"I want you to leave this pack, this land, my land, and never come back."

My eyes widened as I swallowed the lump in my throat. "W-why? What did I do?"

"You're an abomination that I can't afford to destroy my pack."

"I didn't do it." My voice shook. My chin trembled. My eyes began to water as I lifted my gaze, meeting his.

His deep green eyes were like a dark forest, full of mystery and danger but I was willing to take the risk to explore. Until he added, "You will leave tonight or I will kill your family, including your brother if you tell a soul about this."

"Don't do this, please?" I would give everything and do anything for him not to harm my family. I shook my head as tears began to form in my eyes. "I can't."

"I, Ryden Braxton, Alpha of Crimson Heart Pack, reject you, Amelia Hayes, Omega, as my mate and future Luna. I banish you from the pack and my land and never to return."

I shook to cry, feeling the agony erupted in my chest.

He just rejected me, tearing my heart apart so ruthlessly without a hint of regret.

Before he walked to the door, he paused. "And have fun on your 18th birthday."

Without warning, he grabbed me by my ankles and dragged me to the edge of the bed. “Take your panties off,” he ordered me as he unbuckled his belt and worked on his pants, letting them fall on his ankles. Then he grabbed his dick out of his boxers. He was already hard and began stroking it.  When I was too shocked to move, he growled at me, his green eyes searing against mine. “Panties. Off. Now, Nirvana.” I did as he said, scrambling to remove my shorts and underwear. My chest started heaving. My lips went dry as I watched him enjoy stroking himself. “Open your mouth, suck me, and take me all in.” His order woke up something inside me. Lust fired up through my veins, and my clit ached for him. I opened my mouth, and he shoved his shaft inside.  “That’s it, sweetheart. Good girl.” *** All her life, Nirvana Thorne thought she was just human, at least not until a mysterious guy rejected her for no reason. When she finally uncovers her family secrets, Knight reclaims her as his fated mate and forces her to dig deep into the unimaginable danger of the underworld to undo the curse. Fighting her attraction towards him is hard enough. Every time they get close, their chemistry sizzles, and the heat between them becomes irresistible. When the pack is under siege, she must learn to gain control of the newfound power within her while the alpha intends to show her where she belongs. *** All Knight Blackwell ever wanted was to run his pack while getting rich. What he didn’t need was a woman demanding his attention, let alone a human mate like Nirvana. So he rejects her.

With his primal urges getting harder to resist and the powerful being wreaking havoc in his wake, Knight has to sate his dark cravings for his mate before they go to war that Nirvana might have to sacrifice a piece of herself.

“Do it again.” “Be more specific, baby.” I heard a smile in his words. He was enjoying this and wanted me to beg. “Fuck you. You know what I mean.” I grunted in frustration. “I actually don’t.” He stopped again. His rough hand remained between my thighs. “Stop playing games, or I will stroke myself until I come.” I wiggled my ass, seeking a quick relief from the throbbing in my core. Breathing raggedly, he said, “No one is playing games here, baby. I just want to know what you want.” “You really make me do this, don’t you?” My voice was a combination of frustration and irritation. He was enjoying this too much, probably punishing me for giving him blue balls twice. “You were complaining earlier, so, yes. I don’t want another broken nose.” “Spank my ass, Califf. Then touch me and fuck me with your finger. I wanna come. Do you think you can do that?” *** All Shadow ever wanted is to live in peace with their pack, but as a royal Lycan and the daughter of a witch, it comes at a price. When a faceless enemy targeted her, she did not only lose her wolf but also her healing gift, leaving her powerless and vulnerable. Now that the bond is gone and her happy ending is not guaranteed, she has nothing left to offer. She doubts whether she’s still worthy of her mate and Luna of their pack. Alpha Califf becomes a formidable Alpha after defeating a sinister enemy. He should be invincible with allied packs everywhere and witches at his disposal, but Shadow becomes a liability. Despite what happened to his mate, he’s willing to leave the pack and live with her away from threats, but their enemy is two steps ahead of them, and Shadow becomes cold and distant, leaving him nothing but agony he’d never felt before. Will Shadow get her revenge and find a way to get her wolf and gift back? Will they uncover the ugly truth behind their enemy? Or their foe is just right under their noses all along.
