Bound to The Enemy of My Mate
She belongs to a wolf. She's married to the hunter.
To the world, Elira Malven is the villainess who stole a princess's betrothed. But her gilded marriage to the legendary war hero, Kael Rennar, is a cage, and her husband has a deadly secret: he is a Wolfhunter, the sworn enemy of her kind.
“Why?” The word was a crack in her composure. “Why did you push for this marriage? What do you want from me?”
He didn’t turn. A faint, hollow smile touched his lips.
“I don’t know why I insisted,” his voice was barely a breath. “I don’t know why I didn’t kill you the moment I suspected what you are.”
Her only hope seems to lie with Thane, her true mate, whose touch awakens a primal bond in a dusty library. But he is the one who shattered her heart.
“Then why leave?” she asked, raw and painful. “After I begged you—”
“Because I was protecting you!” The words tore from him. “You were nobility. The Wolfkiller's wife. And I— I was nobody.”
Torn between a hunter haunted by his mercy and a mate haunted by his sacrifice, Elira must choose: remain in a marriage built on a tragic mystery, or risk a love that demands a price neither of them may survive.

Chapter: Chapter 134 The Last ButtonThe rattle of the key in the ancient lock was the only sound in the cold cell. Elira worked with an efficient, detached precision. The manacles sprang open, first one heavy wrist, then the other. Kael’s arms fell to his sides, the muscles trembling with weakness and released tension.She did not look at his face. Instead, she turned to a small bundle she had brought with her, untying it to reveal fresh clothes—his own, from his campaign chest: a clean linen shirt, a woolen tunic, trousers. The familiarity of the garments in this place felt like a surreal kindness.“Here,” she said, her voice devoid of inflection. She held out the shirt.Kael took it, his movements stiff. Every bruise protested as he pulled the fabric over his head. He fumbled with the buttons, his fingers nu

Chapter: Chapter 133 Tangled FateThe single word hung in the torch-lit cavern, a fragile thread connecting two shattered lifetimes.“Mother? You mean… you are my daughter? Eli…ra?”The alpha’s voice, moments ago a instrument of command, was now raw, trembling with a hope so long buried it sounded like pain.Elira could only nod, her golden eyes wide, the bond’s fierce clarity momentarily blurred by a tidal wave of primal, human recognition.The alpha—her mother—turned sharply to the assembled pack.“Leave us.” Her voice regained a shred of its authority, though it still shook.

Chapter: Chapter 132 Blood DebtThe summons was not a request. Royal guards, their faces stern, arrived at Malven’s estate at first light. Their presence was a cold splash of reality against the isolated world Elira and Thane had built. The bond hummed with Thane’s instinctual distrust, a low growl in the back of her mind, but she placed a steadying hand on his arm.“It’s the King,” she said, her voice devoid of the fear or anxiety the moment should have held. “It’s about the debt.”They were escorted to the palace not as honored guests, but as assets. The King received them not in the throne room, but in a private solar, the weight of the kingdom’s fear and his own guilt etched deeply into his face. He dismissed everyone but them and two silent guards at the far door.“Duchess,” the King began, his gaze lingering on the faint, golden light he could now perceive in her eyes—the mark of the bond she made no effort to hide. “You know why you are here. Kael is alive, but his time runs out. The nobles clamor for blood,

Chapter: The Chapter 131. The Called DebtThe dawn after the attack revealed a strange and chilling tableau.The Ardian camp was in ruins—tents slashed, supply wagons overturned, smoldering fires scattered like fallen stars. The air was thick with moans of pain, the clatter of panicked salvage, and a pervasive, humiliated silence. But as the sergeants took stock, a baffling report filtered up to the remaining officers.No one was dead.Dozens were injured—bones broken, deep gashes from claws that seemed deliberately placed to maim rather than eviscerate, concussions from brutal blows. But not a single throat had been torn out. Not a single body was left to cool in the dawn. The wolves had moved with surgical, terrifying precision, neutralizing the army’s strength and spirit without taking a life. It was not an assault; it was a demonstration. A message written in pain and fear.The message itself was found nailed to the splintered post of Kael Rennar’s command tent. It was written on cured hide in a stark, c

Chapter: Chapter 130 Crags and ChainsThe Howling Crags were not a battlefield. They were a meat grinder.The Volgarians had not been idle. They’d learned from their defeat at the capital. No longer just sabers and stubborn fury, they came with industry. Their front lines advanced behind clanking, wheeled shields of iron. Their guns were not the long, elegant rifles of Ardian marksmen, but shorter, brutal things that spat clouds of shrapnel. And from their rear lines, with a terrifying whoomp, came the high-arcing fire—iron spheres launched from catapult-like tubes on carts, packed with gunpowder and scrap that rained down in devastating, indiscriminate bursts. (Think naval mortar bombardments, but on land.)But Kael Rennar had not led an army of the past.The Ardian forces, dug into the scree and rock of th

Chapter: Chapter 129 The Unsent BoxDawn at Malven’s estate was a grey, quiet affair. Elira stood at her window, watching the mist cling to the skeletal trees. The bond was a low, warm hum in her chest, Thane’s sleeping presence in the next room a steady anchor. The world was simple now. Clear.A knock at her chamber door broke the stillness.Finn entered, his expression unreadable. In his hands, he carried a simple, unvarnished wooden box. It was jarringly familiar. The sight of it sent a discordant jolt through her—a relic from her life before, from the study in Rennar Manor where she’d once gone hunting for ghosts. She’d found this box, assumed it held the secret love letters from Princess Ilyana, the royal childhood friend and rumored lover Kael was never supposed to have. She had left it unopened, a testament to a pain she thought she

Chapter: Chapter 70 Goodbye My First LoveMy heart was a wild flutter in my chest, a frantic, joyful rhythm against the boning of my dress. I took a final, steadying breath in the bridal suite, my gaze lingering on my reflection—a woman on the brink of her forever.The door opened and Liam Thorne slipped in, looking dazzlingly handsome in his tuxedo."What are you doing here?" I asked, a playful smile gracing my lips. "Shouldn't you be with Chloe? Or at the altar?""Duh," he said with a warm chuckle. "Where on earth does a groom come to his bride's room right before the ceremony? It's bad luck. I'm here to see you."He walked over, his eyes sweeping over me w

Chapter: Chapter 69 The Wedding of The Year"Even then, a part of me knew. I truly mean it when I say I think you did it just because you wanted to play with me, but you didn't know how to ask. You only knew how to demand attention. So I thought about it all over again during this recent incident. Your methods were... destructive. But the root of it was the same. A desperate, misplaced want."Julian looked down at the rich soil, his brother's perception striking a chord so deep it was painful. He had never allowed himself to see his own actions that way."It goes the same for the recent incident between us," Liam said, his voice gentle. "I was angry at you. For using her. For hurting her with your game. For thinking you could win a

Chapter: Chapter 68 The New CanvasA profound sense of peace settled over Liam after Evelyn left. It wasn't the peace of getting what he had once thought he wanted; it was the deeper, more satisfying peace of things being set right. The tangled knot of a decade had finally been loosened. His heart felt light and clear, and for the first time, it knew exactly where it needed to go.He didn't go home. He drove across the city, his destination clear. He parked a block away from the small, independent gallery Chloe managed, needing a moment to gather his thoughts under the blanket of the night sky.He wasn't coming to her out of guilt or because he had no other choice. He was coming to her with a heart that was finally, completely open. Evelyn had been a beautiful, painful dream he had to wake up from. But Chloe… Chloe was the steady, warm reality waiting for him.The gallery was dark except for a soft light emanating from the back studio. Through the glass door, he could see her silhouette mo

Chapter: Chapter 67 The ReturnThe night air was cool against my flushed skin as I stood outside the familiar, imposing apartment door. My heart was a frantic drum against my ribs, a mix of terror and exhilarating certainty. I raised a trembling hand and pressed the doorbell.Inside, Julian was drowning. An empty bottle of expensive Bordeaux sat on the coffee table beside a half-full glass. He was sprawled on his sofa, still in his work clothes, his tie loosened and his hair disheveled. The television was on, but he wasn't watching it. He was staring at the ceiling, trying and failing to numb the relentless ache in his chest with the wine. Sleep was a forgotten luxury; his only solace was the blessed blurring of the ed

Chapter: Chapter 66 Wedding DressSix months later…The room was decorated in a theme of pristine white. The scent of fresh flowers filled the air, dominated by the deep, romantic fragrance of roses—my favorite—their crimson hue a stark, beautiful contrast against the white walls and flowing curtains. I stood before a huge, floor-to-ceiling mirror, my breath catching in my throat.The mirror reflected a figure I barely recognized. The white wedding dress was perfection itself, hugging my curves in all the right places before flowing out into a graceful train. It was elegant, timeless, and utterly breathtaking. I looked… outstanding. A bride in every sense of the word.

Chapter: Chapter 65 The Father of ThornesThe Thorne family residence was not a home; it was a museum of cold, impeccable taste. Every piece of furniture was placed with geometric precision, every surface gleamed under the soft, recessed lighting, and the silence was so profound it felt like a physical presence. I stood in the vast, minimalist dining room, feeling like a misplaced, breathing exhibit.Chairman Thorne sat at the head of a long, obsidian table that could easily seat twenty. He did not rise when I was shown in. He merely gestured with a slow, deliberate hand to the single place setting directly to his right. The distance between us felt both intimate and infinite.“Ms. Sharpe,” he said by way of greeting.
