The Female Alpha’s Rejected Mate: Werewolf series, #1

Lyra Veyne fought too hard to become Stormveil's ruling Alpha to let fate control her future. Then Rowan Thorne appears, powerful, guarded, and tied to Ironfang, the pack she distrusts most. Their mate bond is instant, but Lyra rejects him publicly to protect her people.

When attacks strike Stormveil, Rowan becomes the one man she must trust to uncover the truth. As enemies close in, hidden bloodlines surface, and their broken bond weakens, Lyra faces the truth: regret may not be enough.

Can she save her pack and earn back the mate she chose to lose before time runs out?
