"I, Ember MacGregor, solemnly reject your claim as my alpha mate, Alpha Paris," she declared firmly. Did my supposed life partner just reject me? Has my supposed wife discarded our bond?" he asked, stunned. Luna Lara, his mother, scolded, "How dare you reject my beloved son? You, an insignificant Omega, have no right!" For the first time in five years, Ember clenched her fists, fixing a steely gaze at them, and walked out of the room. In their initial union, Alpha Paris had chosen Ember as his wife and Luna's pack member despite not sensing a true mating bond. He believed he was in love with her, but during their third year of marriage, he discovered his true destined mate, Kate. Unable to resist the pull of their fated connection, he偷偷 marked Kate and fathered a child with her, betraying Ember. Due to her infertility, Ember could not provide an heir for the alpha, so she submitted to her husband and his family's demands. However, when Alpha Paris fell for Kate's lies about Ember's alleged cruelty, they coerced her into donating a kidney to make amends. Frustrated and disillusioned, Ember made the decision to reject him and leave. Paris was taken aback by Ember's sudden rejection and realized he hadn't truly understood her all along. Five years of marriage hadn't revealed the depth of her emotions. Following her departure, he regretted his actions and desperately sought to win her back.
