“Not so fast, carrot head. The party just started,” Alex said. “You're like a little pest… why are we always drawn to you?” Austin asked.
“I sure am,” Alex smiled. Now I was sandwiched between them, my heart racing so fast I felt like I was going to pass out.
“Leave me alone!” I screamed and tried to run. But I was trapped. Before I realized it, Austin crashed his lips into mine. My mind almost exploded. I had never kissed anyone before.
I felt Alex, who was behind me, shove his hand beneath my...

"I'm mated to you, Asher," I whispered, hoping for his acceptance.
"No, you're mated to yourself because I can never be with someone like you," Asher replied coldly. "I, Asher, hereby reject you as my mate."
Confusion and heartache consumed me as I stared at him, my voice trembling. "Why are you saying all of this to me?"

"You were ours from the second we set eyes on you."

"Huh?" I blinked confusedly. Hope blossomed in my chest as I flickered my eyes between the identical twin Alphas. "Really?"

“She’s mine, let her go.”
It was Lukas.
Claire had gotten herself into a big mess. She is his unwanted human mate.

“Mated? To me?” She knew her mouth was hanging open in shock. Darting a glance across the room, she saw Kane staring at her blandly, his hands behind his back. If her expression offended him, he didn’t show it. She looked at her father, blinking to hold back the tears that threatened to fall. “But... What about Bryan?”
“I’m aware you’ve had your eye on him, but this is for the good of the pack. We need strong alliances so that we can guard against the human threat. And, allied packs allow acces...

A rather shy omega who dreamed of finding her mate. But she had no idea that fate had in store not just one alpha, but two great lupus alphas.
She had always heard that all lupus alphas are aggressive and violent towards anyone. But she realized that not all of them are like that, because her companions are the kindest alphas in the world.

“What did you say, little omega? I didn’t quite hear you.” Grayson rushed after me and growled; he yanked me roughly by the hair and pulled me back to face him. Then grabbing me by the scruff of the neck. I didn’t whimper or make a sound. I looked down at the ground, careful not to meet his glare. I knew that would make him more furious and I had learnt not to do that a long time ago.
I could feel the eyes of the cafeteria on me, waiting for my response. My heart raced ...

Lucia
I'd lost my parents at a young age, been tossed from one abusive chaotic home to the other until I'd finally decided I couldn't take it anymore and had run away. Only running away had made it worse.
I'd been stripped to almost nothing because of my stubbornness. My upper body was left uncovered and my breasts were on display, though that was the least of my problems.
A tear escaped my eyes then and I watched it fall down to my chest and slide down my exposed breast. I turned to wi...

"Selene, I, Alpha Garrick reject you as my Luna."
No problem, I'll try again - That's what I said to myself. Boy was I in for a bitter treat.
"I'm sorry, but I, Alpha Mavin reject you as my Luna."
The most important thing for a female werewolf is to be mated to a powerful and influential Alpha. But as you can see, my luck is subpar.
Again! I tried again.
