Hello, my wonderful readers! I am pleased to announce that the first book in the series, Mated and Rejected by Her Alpha, is now available in print and KU.

From Alessia's POVA silence fell over us after Daunte said he had killed Alpha Markus. I couldn't believe it. I knew I had heard his voice in my vision, which I was certain of.I had so many questions. Some I thought I already had the answers to, others had risen in light of the events that had started to unfold.After Daunte was given the OK to leave the hospital, Logan drove us back to the packhouse. We exited the car as soon as he parked, and I made a beeline for my bedroom. I needed time to think and process everything that Daunte had told us. But mainly, I needed time to get in contact with Briseis. I wanted to ask her about my vision. Maybe she could help clarify some things.Upon entering the bedroom, I noticed the window was open, which was odd because I had never opened the window before. I cautiously approached the window and looked out. I saw a small note taped to the window. I opened the note, and a chill ran down my spine when I read the contents."You can't hide forever
From Daunte's POVI had no idea what she had seen, but I knew she wasn't lying. Her look and how she held onto me tightly told me she was telling the truth. She had a look of fear in her eyes, and I could feel her trembling. I knew that whatever she had seen was frightening, and I knew I had to protect her by any means necessary.Walking back to my office, I knew I had to finish telling her the truth about her parents. My one fear was that this would push her away even more. I knew that I had to take the risk and tell her in spite of the fact that this might mean losing both her and Romo. As we entered my office, I led her to the chair across from my desk and gestured for her to sit. I took a deep breath and started to explain the situation."I wanted to tell you earlier, but I wasn't sure it was the right time with everything that happened at the hospital. Alessia, your mother had the ability to see the past, present, and future. I think perhaps this is why you are having these visio
From Jared's POVLife has a funny way of making you pay for things. I always knew Alessia was my mate from the day she arrived at Crestview Pack. The moment I laid eyes on her, I knew. I also knew there was something special about her, as did everyone else.The day Alpha Markus found out we were mated, he had pulled me into his office. I remembered it as if it was yesterday. Little did I know that my life would have changed then and there.(Flashback)"Jared, my boy, come in, come in," Alpha Markus said."You want to see me?" I asked as I walked in and took a seat in the chair across from him." Since gossip can contain plenty of lies, I wanted to ask you personally. You see, I heard you were mated to Alessia. Is there truth to this?" Alpha Markus asked.I gulped and remained silent for a moment. I felt my heart sink as Alpha Markus stared at me, clearly expecting an answer. I took a deep breath before speaking. "Yes, it's true. I'm mated to Alessia.""Well, I need you to do something
From Alessia's POVI had to hand it to Daunte for not wanting to give up on me. But as much as he wanted me, I knew I was not ready and wasn't sure if and when I would be. As we drove, I stared out the window at the trees passing by, and my mind wandered. I was stuck in limbo between everything I knew and everything I thought I knew. I was so lost in thought that I did not notice the car stop until I felt tingles run up my arm from Daunte placing his hand on top of mine."Forgive me," he said, removing his hand from mine. He gestured to a diner, saying, "We're here." I followed his gaze and saw that the small cafe was brightly lit and inviting. I took a deep breath and stepped out of the car, feeling a sense of anticipation.There was nothing special about the diner; you could call it a hole in the wall, but it was warm and inviting all the same. The ambiance was that of a 1950's era. The diner was decorated with vintage furniture and old-fashioned signs. The tables were covered in re
From Daunte's POVLeaving the hospital was probably the worst idea I ever had. I felt like shit, but what would have happened to Alessia if I hadn't? It was risky for her to be alone every day, so I decided to leave, but I also knew that I couldn't protect her adequately at the moment. All I knew was that I needed to protect her the best way I knew how, and that was to be by her side. I had to ensure Alessia was safe, even if that meant risking my own life. Beyond that, nothing else mattered to me.Following my conversation with Hector, I decided to give her some space. My greatest fear was losing her, but if Maliyla and Hector could survive everything they went through, then so could Alessia and I. I only needed to be her friend before anything else, and everything would work out fine.Taking the time to talk to her was vital, which was my main reason for bringing her to eat. It gave us the time we needed to be alone. The conversation was a bit awkward, but in the end, I saw a small
From Daunte's P.O.V.Walking out of my office, I headed outside. I needed to see my mate. I needed to make sure she was safe. I had no idea how all this would play out. I had so many questions, yet no answers. I didn't understand how everything could be turned upside down in the blink of an eye. But ask me if I cared, and I would say: FUCK NO!Alessia was worth the pain and suffering. I would die for her as long as she was safe; I only cared about her safety.Stepping outside, my eyes immediately drifted to the car. I hesitated for a moment until I saw Logan step out of the vehicle. I watched as he walked over to the passenger side and opened the door. The moment I saw Alessia step out, I sighed in relief.I rushed over to her and pulled her into my arms. I felt a rush of tingles shoot through me, and I closed my eyes as I rested my head on top of her head. I smiled at her shortness. She stood at five feet two inches; in contrast to me, she was a little midget standing next to my six-
From Daunte's POVBlood was everywhere! You think of a murder scene, and this was it. From what I could see, nobody was in the room, just blood. I had seen a lot of blood on the battlefield, but this was different.This was my home, my mates' room, this was my pack!The only thing running through my mind was getting Alessia out of there. Turning and looking at her, I saw panic in her eyes immediately; I knew I had fucked up."How the fuck did we not catch this?" I thought to myself."Not sure!" I heard Romo's voice echo in the folds of my mind."You are slipping; how can you not smell all this blood?" I asked him."There is nothing to smell, fleshing," he retorted."What the fuck does that mean?" I replied, surprised by his response.How could he not smell this? As wolves, we had an impeccable sense of hearing and smell. With that in mind, it became apparent that I had not heard anything; no one did! I cleared my throat before taking Alessia's hand and pulling her out of the room."Fo
From Alessia's POVWaking up the following day, I felt relaxed and at ease. As if something weighing me down had been lifted from me. That was until I realized I was not in my room. Sitting up in bed, I noticed my surroundings were much more luxurious.The walls of the bedroom were painted a lovely creamy beige. The bed was large and covered in a white down comforter. A chandelier hung from the ceiling, and a vast window overlooked the backyard. For a moment, I was in bliss until my eyes landed on the lounge by the balcony window, and I noticed Daunte lying down fast asleep.After pushing off the comforter, I slipped off the bed and slowly made my way toward the couch. As I stood there, I watched him for a moment. I studied his face very carefully, every feature from the lines on his forehead to his well-defined jawline. His eyes were closed, and he was snoring softly. His chest rose and fell with each breath, and I could feel my heart racing as I watched his peaceful face. I stood th
