About

After enduring betrayal for the ninth time at the hands of her mate, Fenris Blackmoor, and her sister, Selene, she is forced to confront the bitter truth: love can be as cruel as it is intoxicating. Sworn to protect her sister’s reputation, Fenris has sacrificed Lyra’s honor, leaving her heart shattered and her spirit cold.

As she prepares to sever ties with her birth pack, the weight of her decision hangs heavily in the air. What does it mean to abandon family, even one that has become a source of pain?

In a world where loyalty is currency and betrayal cuts deep, can Lyra find the strength to redefine her identity in the face of overwhelming odds? Or will the ghosts of her past follow her into the uncertain future she seeks? The journey ahead is fraught with danger, but freedom beckons like a distant star.

I Rejected My Mate After He Chose My Sister for the Ninth TimeChapter 1

"Miss Ashenvale, I must ask you to weigh this decision one final time." The pack scribe's voice carried a solemn weight. "Once you enter the Academy in Cresthaven Territory, you will fall under the Council's protection. But the cost is steep—you must sever all bonds with your birth pack. For five years, you cannot set foot in Wolfridge Territory or make direct contact with any former pack member. Not even those who share your blood."

Lyra Ashenvale's hand shook as she gripped the ceremonial quill. The tip dragged a crooked line of ink past the oath-seal's edge.

But in the next heartbeat, her knuckles went bone-white. The last trace of doubt in her amber eyes crystallized into iron resolve. She carved her name into the parchment with strokes as sharp as claws.

"I am certain." The words scraped through her throat—raw but steady, carrying the desperate strength of someone who had already torched every path behind her.
