Rejected and shattered, Aria Ravenshadow had always been the weakest in her pack—an omega, fated for rejection. When Alpha Jaxon Blackthorn cruelly denounces her in front of everyone, the last remnants of her fragile heart are crushed. Feeling lost and utterly alone, she runs, convinced there’s no place for her in a world where she’ll ever truly belong.But destiny has a different plan. When she stumbles into the territory of the ruthless twin Alphas, Kane and Zane Nightfire, Aria is unexpectedly offered a second chance. Though the brothers have sworn to remain unmated, they feel an unexplainable connection to the fragile wolf. Still, the fear of another rejection looms large over Aria. Weighed down by her past and unsure of her strength, she must face her own insecurities and tap into a power she never realized she had. Will her second chance mates accept her or will they reject her?

Chapter 1

Chapter 1 — Aria's POVI saw my reflection in the broken mirror leaning against the wall. My long, dark hair is all tangled, and my violet eyes look scared, as they usually do. I'm short for a wolf, just over five feet tall, with a body that some might think is delicate. But I know the truth — I'm just weak.“Nyx,” I whisper to my wolf. She stirs within me, a presence both comforting and frustrated. Nyx is everything I'm not — strong, fierce, and unafraid. Sometimes I wonder if she got stuck with the wrong human.Sighing, I quickly braid my hair and pull on a threadbare t-shirt and jeans. No point in trying to look nice. No one would notice.I quietly leave my room, trying not to make any noise. The pack house is quiet at this time, but I know better than to wake anyone. The last time I accidentally woke someone, I got a black eye that took weeks to heal.The kitchen is my first stop. It's my job to have breakfast ready. For the higher-ranking wolves before they wake up. I turn on th

Chapter 2

Chapter 2 — Aria's POVMate.Why did I say it out loud? Me, Aria Ravenshadow, the pack omega, claiming the Alpha as my mate? Maybe I've gone insane.Jaxon's gray eyes lock onto mine, and it feels like I'm sinking. He looks even better close up – Nyx, my wolf, is acting crazy. She's howling and clawing, desperate to be closer to him.But then his face changed. The shock fell away, replaced by a cold and hard expression. My heart had soared a moment before and now sank to my feet.“What did you just say?” Jaxon's voice was low and menacing.I opened my mouth but nothing came out. The pack was silent around us, all holding their breath.Jaxon moved a step closer toward me, and I instinctively moved a step backward. My mind was filled with memories of the constant disparaging remarks Jaxon made when I failed in tasks, debilitating chores he handed out to me, and how he looked through me as if I did not exist.“I. I.” I stuttered, my voice little more than a whisper.“Speak up, omega,” gro

Chapter 3

Chapter 3 I ran. My lungs were on fire, and my feet tripped over each other in an effort to dash through the forest. Thin branches hit my skin and face. But I couldn't stop running. I wouldn't stop. Behind me, I could hear the muffled sounds of the pack stirring-it was only a matter of time before they realized I was gone. As I was running, Jaxon flashed through my mind. His voice was cold and bitter, the brutal things he'd yell, pushing me beyond the limits of any wolf: “Useless omega,” he'd snarl. “Can't you do anything right? I, Jaxon Blackthorn, Alpha of the Shadowmoon Pack, hereby reject Aria Ravenshadow as my mate. No true Alpha could be mated to such weakness.” I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. I couldn't be haunted by Jaxon now. It was then that my foot caught on a root and I fell. As I hit the hard ground, pain shot through my ankle. “Dammit!” I hissed, grasping at my throbbing ankle. Jaxon's voice echoed in my head: “So weak.” No. I couldn't let him be r

Chapter 4

Chapter 4 — Kane's POV.The scent was like a gut punch. Unfamiliar. Intriguing. Not quite human, nor wolf either. My twin brother Zane's ears perked up the same instant mine did, and our eyes met in silent communication.“You smell that?” I growled low.Zane nodded, amber eyes shining bright with curiosity. “Let's go.”We moved through the forest with practiced stealth, our huge wolf forms melting into the shadows. As Alphas of the Nightfire Pack, it was our job to check out any possible threats to our territory. But this was different.The scent grew stronger the closer we came to a small clearing. It was then that I saw her.Huddled in the bushes was the most fantastical creature I had ever seen. Part human, part wolf. Her body was slicked down in black fur, yet her form was caught somewhere between shapes. My heart jumped when our eyes met because they went wild with terror and were impossibly beautiful.I nodded to Zane, and we moved out into the open. The wolf snarled, flashing t

Chapter 5

Chapter 5 — Aria's POVI woke up to a clean and sterile smell. Not like the earthy smell of the forest that I remembered. Wait, when? My thoughts were not clear like they were filled with cotton.I opened my eyes and I noticed a white ceiling above me. Definitely not the star-filled night sky I remembered seeing last.Where the hell was I?I tried to sit up, but I fell back with a groan. Every part of my body was hurting, as if I had just run a marathon. Or, you know, I fled for my life through a forest.The forest, The river, The shift.It all came back in a tidal wave. The rejection, running from the Shadowmoon pack, my first agonizing incomplete shift, and then.Oh, Goddess. The Nightfire twins.I closed my eyes, hoping it was a bad dream. But the room was still here when I opened my eyes again. An infirmary-white walls, medical equipment, and that unmistakable scent of antiseptic.“Nyx?” I called out mentally to my wolf. “What happened?”My wolf stirred, her presence so much more

Chapter 6

Chapter 6 — Kane's POVMy arms wrapped around her small frame, tugging her easily off the ground. She struggled hard against me, a growl small in her throat.“And where do you think you're going?” I growled-low and rumbling-against her ear.She was wrestling in my arms like some feral animal, all snarls and claws. It was cute, but why was she trying to run away?Instantly, Zane was beside me, his eyes wide with alarm as he took in the vision of our little mate half-shifted. “What the—” he began, but I cut him off with a look.We didn't need words, Zane and I. But a look was sometimes enough to say so much. And today that look said, “What the fuck?”“Easy, little one,” I crooned. I tried to speak soft and soothing. “We're not going to hurt you.”Her struggles slowly subsided, and the fight went out of her, leaving her whole body trembling. It made something ache in my chest, a feeling I wasn't used to.I turned back to Zane, his eyes reflecting my own confusion. This wasn't how finding

Chapter 7

Chapter 7 — Zane's POVThe second Kane and I left the pack house; my wolf surged forward, ready for battle. The night air felt cool on my skin, but I hardly noticed it. My senses were fully alert as I looked for the intruder.We were running, but my head kept drifting back to Aria. The fear in her eyes, the way she'd shaken in Kane's arms-it had my wolf howling for the need to protect her. Which, again, was frickin' inconvenient, considering Kane and I had sworn off mates forever ago.“Focus, Zane,” Kane growled low, probably sensing my distraction. Right. Intruder first, mate drama later.As we approached the boundary of our territory, we moved more cautiously. Kane raised a fist. I dropped low, scanning the tree line. That was when I saw a figure emerging from the shadows.Holy shit.“Jaxon Blackthorn,” I whispered, standing before me was the Alpha of the Shadowmoon Pack. What the hell is he doing here?Kane stepped forward, his posture screaming authority. I joined him, showing a

Chapter 8

Chapter 8 — Kane's POVMy heart was pounding against my chest as I burst through the pack house doors, Zane right beside me with an unconscious Aria in his arms. Her skin was burning up, radiating heat even from several feet away.“Dr. Cassia!” I shouted both out loud and through our pack link. I rarely used my Alpha voice, but right now? Yeah, this qualified as an emergency.The lights in the hallway made Aria's face look paler than she already was. My wolf was going crazy, pushing against my skin, desperate to protect our mate. Which was still a mind-trip to think about, considering how Zane and I had sworn off the whole mate thing years ago.Funny how life works out sometimes.Dr. Cassia met us at the entrance to the medical wing, her silver hair escaping its usual neat bun. One look at Aria and her professional calm cracked just slightly.“Put her on the examination table,” she ordered, already pulling out equipment. “What happened?”“She just collapsed,” Zane explained, laying Ar

Chapter 9

Chapter 9 — Aria's POV: The First GuardianI was floating.That's the clearest way I can describe it. One second, I was falling right in front of Kane and Zane (which was super embarrassing), and the next, I was floating through something that looked like space, but… even more beautiful? Stars swirled around me in patterns that definitely weren't normal astronomy, and time felt like it had just… stopped existing.“Great. I'm either dead or having the world's weirdest dream.”“Neither, actually,” a voice said, smooth as silk and ancient as the stars themselves.I turned around (can you spin while floating?) and found myself looking directly at the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Her hair was a pure silver color, moving around her as if it were underwater. Her eyes… goddess, her eyes looked like they'd seen the birth of the universe itself. She wore robes that seemed to be made from actual moonlight if that was even possible.“Um, hi?” I managed. Real smooth, Aria.The woman's lip

Chapter 10

Chapter 10 — Zane's POVEverything happened in slow motion.One second I was watching Aria thrash in her sleep, muttering something about guardians, and the next thing I knew, her hands burst into brilliant blue flames. Not normal flames, either – these had an otherworldly quality that made my wolf bristle with a mixture of awe and instinctive wariness.“Aria!” Kane's shout snapped me into action as the flames began spreading to the curtains. The acrid smell of smoke filled the air as medical supplies and papers caught fire. Dr. Cassia stood frozen, her usually calm demeanor shattered by the supernatural display before us.I lunged forward just as Aria's eyes rolled back, catching her before she could hit the floor. Even unconscious, her skin hummed with energy, though the burning heat from before had faded to a subtle warmth. My wolf was going crazy, desperate to protect our mate while simultaneously fascinated by this new development.“Move her to the other section!” Dr. Cassia orde
