They say finding a mate was like finding a pin in a pile of grass. Chances of finding them were rare. Aine, a wolf who was practically invisible in her parents' eyes, was chosen to mate some Alpha by her Alpha and Father. Due to the death of her twin sister three years ago, her father’s attention was diverted at her, controlling her, insulting her in any possible way. Not wanting to be engaged and mated with the unknown Alpha, she escaped. While in the run, she met her fated pair, Alpha Oishin, the strongest Alpha in the South and a nominee as Alpha King. Thinking she finally found the reason for her to be happy, she dedicated her whole life with her mate, to almost neglecting herself. But he cheated on her. And when it was time to choose his Luna, he chose someone else and not her. With barely surviving wolf, Aine escaped together with her son and only to run with the Alpha she was arranged with, Alpha Tyga Holy who was also a surviving Alpha. Fate must have finally smiled on Aine because he was actually his second chance mate. But Tyga has his own secret that must be kept from Aine no matter what. Just when everything seemed to fall in the right places, fate did not actually finish hurting her. The second pain almost killed Aine and she did what she was good at, running away. How much pain is needed to break a she-wolf? Would Aine survive this second rejection? What if the two Alphas came and were looking for her? Would she accept one of them back? Will she choose forgiveness? Who will she choose among the Alphas? Or choose being alone?
