The Cursed Alpha's Rejected Luna
Once burned, twice shy.
Can Saige accept the help of the Alpha, who rejected and broke her heart? Not once, but twice.
As if she had not learned her lesson. Right?
Saige Callahan, a promising scientist, devoted her life to finding a cure for her mother's rare disease. Unfortunately, her mother died before she could complete the formula.
Now, she faced mountains of debt, a dependent teenage brother, and a company on the verge of bankruptcy her parents left behind.
Yeah! Desperate times called for desperate measures.
But what if the only solution is her ex? Could she let bygones be bygones?
The cursed Alpha Xavier Axel Lockwood is the youngest Alpha to lead the Blood Redwood Pack. His intelligence and bravery had earned him the respect of his fellow wolves while instilling fear in their enemies.
Nobody dared to cross him, that was, until he crossed paths with a witch! Cursed, he must marry his mate and make her fall in love with him again!
Will he be able to do so before it's too late?

"What is it?" He asked, wanting her to leave before he lost his control altogether.
He knew he was hanging by a thin thread every second she stood before him. If she kept sending him mixed signals, she was asking for trouble.
This time, he doubted if he could save her from himself.
"Did you... Did we...?" But she stopped, seemingly embarrassed to ask her question. "I meant, did something happen between us last night?"
Of course, she did not remember that part. But fortunately for her, there was nothing much to remember.
"I don't need you high as a kite to claim your body. You already know that." After their two-year relationship, she should know by now what he was like.
"And if something happened to us last night, you would know because you won't be able to stand up." He knew the distance between them was not enough to stop the impact of his words on her.
He believed it was evident with her erratic pulse rate, her uneven breathing, and the scent she emitted when aroused. He concluded she remembered how good they were together. Now, she was as horny as him.
"But I will not force you because I know you will come willingly to my bed on your own accord in time." He confidently reminded her. "And I promise. You will remember every detail of us together."
Then, he turned away from her and walked into the closet to get some fresh clothes. But more than that, he just needed more space between them.
"But I am not yours. Not anymore. Not ever." He could hear her whispering.
"You have no right to claim me. No right at all." She continued.
"And I will never come willingly back in your arms or your bed." She swore before he heard the door open and closed.
"Never is a long time. But I can patiently wait."
