Rejected by my Mate, Chosen by his Enemy

She loved him in silence for years. Tonight the Alpha would choose his Luna, and Haydee told herself she came only to watch.
Then Cole Shade kissed another woman, and the mate bond snapped into place. The whole pack heard her gasp. Cole scented the truth and rejected her anyway, in front of everyone.
"A mistake of the Moon Goddess is still a mistake."
The rejection nearly killed her. Silvercrest's golden new Luna tried to finish the job, sending warriors into the dark to make sure Haydee never crossed the border alive.
She crossed it anyway. And the wolf who caught her was the one creature Silvercrest had taught her to fear: Hunter Grear, the savage Alpha of Nightfall, the enemy whispered about since childhood.
Hunter doesn't want her gratitude. He wants to know why a banished orphan carries a crest the world believes it buried eighteen years ago. A black moon, split by silver fire. The Moonborn mark. Proof of who Haydee was always meant to be.
Now the man who threw her away wants her again, and the bond in her chest can't tell the difference between love and damage. The Luna who tried to bury her is still hunting the truth. And the rival Alpha who should have killed her is the only one who has ever seen her as worth protecting.
Cole rejected his fated mate.
He's about to learn what that mate can do.
She was nobody. She was never nobody.
