My Enemy, My Mate
Emmeline Gray's fate was sealed. Her father, Lord Gray, had betrayed the Lunar Council, and now she had to pay the price. The Council had condemned her to serve the ruthless Rogue King, Cedric Silver.
As Emmeline entered the dark castle, she felt trapped. The air reeked of malice, and Cedric's piercing gaze cut through her like a knife.
"Speak out of turn, and you're dead," Cedric warned, his voice low and menacing. His eyes seemed to bore into her soul, and Emmeline felt a shiver run down her spine.
"You'll submit, Emmeline," Cedric continued, his voice dripping with an undercurrent of desire. "Your father's sins won't be forgiven, but maybe you can earn redemption."
Emmeline's heart pounded in her chest as their gazes met. She recognized the unmistakable spark – Cedric Silver, the feared Rogue King, was her mate.
Cedric's eyes seemed to burn with an inner fire as he took a step closer to her. "You're mine now, Emmeline," he whispered, his breath hot against her skin. "And I always claim what's mine."
Emmeline's pulse quickened as she felt the weight of Cedric's gaze. She knew she should be afraid, but a part of her was drawn to the darkness that lurked within him.
Tied to the man who embodied her family's destruction, Emmeline's life was now a twisted dance between loyalty, survival, and her own heart. Would she find redemption, or would darkness consume her?

Chapter: Chapter Sixty six*****EMMELINE'S POV******* The news of the Council leader’s death spread like wildfire. It was shocking enough that he had been murdered, but by his own daughter? Rumors swirled. Some claimed Ava was his illegitimate child, mistreated and scorned her entire life. But no one could confirm anything. The only person who could—Ava—had escaped before her execution. “So… what happens now?” I asked Elara as she finished brushing my hair. She shrugged. “I really don’t know.” Elara had become my only source of information. Since Cedric had tightened the security around the pack, I wasn’t allowed to leave—not that I had anywhere to go. “I heard a new Council leader has been elected,” she added, gathering the combs and pins from the table. “But I didn’t catch his name.” I yawned, though I had barely done anything today. Fatigue clung to me constantly. “Are you sure you’re alright?” Elara asked, her voice tinged with concern. I nodded quickly. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust her, it was ju

Chapter: Chapter Sixty five ****CEDRIC POV***As I watched Emmeline leave the room, I let out a deep sigh of frustration.How could she say that?Rejection? Does she really think that’s the right solution?I rubbed my forehead, trying to calm the storm of emotions building within me. I had more urgent matters to deal with now.Ava…She attacked me last night. Why? I never trusted her, but I didn’t think she’d go so far as to try and kill me.I’d been certain she was smitten with me or maybe that was just an act to hide her true intentions. Her hatred.“My Lord, you’re awake?” the physician asked, entering the room with a mix of confusion and surprise.I frowned. “Would you prefer me dead?” I muttered sarcastically.He shook his head vehemently. “No, my Lord! Please pardon my reaction. It’s just… the potion you were injected with. it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen before.”I narrowed my eyes. “Really?”Not surprising. Ava worked with the Council and they collaborated with the witches of Arachne. It’s no wonder

Chapter: Chapter Sixty four *****EMMELINE'S POV*****The pack was in disarray when I returned. Confused, I walked over to Grace, who was speaking with the guards."What's happening?" I asked, noticing the guards following a trail through the bushes."Where have you been, Emmeline?" Grace asked, instructing the guards to leave us."Somewhere," I muttered nonchalantly. I couldn't possibly tell her I went to see Lord Anthony. She would tell Cedric—and from what I've heard, Cedric doesn't like Lord Anthony.She scoffed, ignoring my insolent reply. "We were attacked by Ava. Lord Cedric is at the clinic."I froze at her words. What does she mean Cedric is in the clinic? He's one of the strongest Alphas I know.Why would Ava attack him? I saw them talking earlier today like friends… So what's with the sudden hostility?Without thinking twice, I ran to the pack infirmary. Grace called after me, but I didn’t respond.When I arrived, the physicians directed me to his bed. It struck me how the pack's hostility toward me ha

Chapter: Chapter Sixty three ********CEDRIC POV*****I paced my room, a hand pressed to my lips as I smiled, replaying the kiss over and over in my mind. Maybe…just maybe…there was still hope.Hope for Emmeline and me.Hope that we can find our way back to each other.I would risk it all. I’d do everything in my power to win my mate back.But right now, I had to focus on the issue at hand; the spy.Grace and I had searched every corner of the manor and questioned every member of the pack, but so far, everyone had come out clean.The poison used was the same type as before—Shadow Bite, the one used on Emmeline. But according to our investigation, there hadn't been a witch in this manor since Juliet and July’s departure.I rubbed my forehead, already exhausted from chasing shadows.Just then, the door creaked open slowly. I frowned, irritated by the intrusion, especially from someone who didn’t even bother to knock.“What do you want?” I asked sharply when I saw Ava leaning casually against the doorframe.She let o

Chapter: Chapter Sixty two****EMMELINE'S POV****The manor was rowdy, with people moving up and down in a frenzy. I didn’t know exactly what was going on, but Elara mentioned someone had been murdered.I’d gone to Cedric’s room twice to find out what was happening, but he was never there.For the past two days, my mind had been consumed with thoughts of how to prove my father’s innocence. He’d kept me away from all his experiments, so I had little to no knowledge of his work schedule or projects.Cedric had asked me to think of someone from the Blood Moon pack who might be a suspect. The only person that came to mind was Luna Maya—but I doubted she could do something like that.What would she even gain? And she didn’t seem like someone affiliated with the Council… unless there were multiple people behind the experiments.I made a mental note to mention my suspicions to Cedric.As I walked downstairs into the unusually quiet hallway, I halted when I saw Ava with Cedric. They were deep in conversation, speaking

Chapter: Chapter Sixty one ******* CEDRIC POV******I sat in my office, burying myself in work so I wouldn't think about my mate, but it proved more difficult than I thought.Her words kept ringing in my ears… Teammates.How could that even be possible, given that we are mates?But I couldn’t argue with her. The fear that she might disappear from my life completely was nerve-racking. I know I deserve every bit of her coldness, but it still hurts.Her eyes, once full of love and admiration for me, were now filled with disgust and hatred.“My Lord,” Grace muttered, pulling me out of my thoughts. I hadn’t even heard her enter, which was unusual, especially since my senses had heightened after my last shift.“What brings you here?” I asked, looking up at her.She bit her lip. “Um… Lady Emmeline is insisting on seeing you.”I shrugged. “You can send her in.”When we agreed to work together as teammates, she made it clear the chains had to go. Said if we were equals, she needed to be treated like one. So she was now

Chapter: chapter seventy five NATHANIEL'S POV I paced outside the labor ward because I was panicking inside, so Felix kicked me out, my mind racing with memories of the past six months.Katherine's pregnancy had been a whirlwind of emotions – hers and mine. Mood swings, tears, and laughter filled our days. One moment she'd be radiant, glowing with joy; the next, she'd be crying over something as trivial as a misplaced book.I recalled the first time she'd craved pickles and ice cream at 3 AM. I rushed to the store, laughing as she devoured the combination in bed. Her smile had lit up the room.Then there were the days she couldn't leave the bed, exhausted and overwhelmed. I'd held her close, whispering reassurances as she sobbed.Through it all, our love deepened. I marveled at her strength, her resilience.And now, as I stood outside these hospital doors, my heart swelled with anticipation. Our little one was almost here.I took a deep breath, remembering Katherine's words: "We're in this together, Nathaniel."T

Chapter: Chapter seventy four KATHERINE POV Tonight was the night – our official mating ceremony. I couldn't shake off the butterflies in my stomach, excitement and nerves tangled together. In the human world, they called it a wedding day, but for us, it was so much more. The thought of wearing the dress Nathaniel had designed specifically for me sent my heart soaring. His talented hands had crafted every detail, every stitch, with love and devotion. As tradition dictated, Nathaniel and I prepared in separate rooms, the anticipation building with each passing moment. As I swung open the closet door, my eyes widened in awe. Before me hung the most breathtaking wedding gown I had ever laid eyes on. The dress was a masterpiece of elegance and sophistication, tailored to perfection. The gown's ivory hue shimmered in the light, its silky fabric seeming to glow from within. Delicate lace and intricate embroidery danced across the bodice, framing the sweetheart neckline. The fitted waist flowed into a flowing,

Chapter: chapter seventy threeNATHANIEL'S POV I slumped in my office chair, surrounded by scattered papers and half-empty coffee cups. The early morning hours ticked by as I struggled to focus on designing, my mind wandering to Katherine.Three weeks of absence had left me drowning in work. Janet's emails had been a lifesaver; she definitely deserved a raise.But my thoughts kept drifting back to Katherine. It had been a week since my recovery, and she'd moved back to the guest room. The distance between us felt like an insurmountable chasm.I knew she loved me, just as I loved her. Yet, trust remained the elephant in the room. No matter my efforts, Katherine's doubts lingered.Five hours passed in a blur as I worked, attempting to distract myself from the ache in my chest.Just as the sun began to rise, Kilo's voice broke the silence."What are you doing, cousin?" Kilo asked, concern etched on his face.I rubbed my tired eyes.I rolled my eyes at Kilo, a hint of exasperation creeping into my voice. "What does i

Chapter: chapter seventy NATHANIEL'S POV I stood tall, my gaze piercing Carolina's, as I addressed the gathered warriors. The tension was palpable, the air thick with anticipation. "You've brought war to our doorstep, Carolina. What drives you to turn against your own pack? What grievance could possibly justify this betrayal?"Carolina's smirk twisted her face, her eyes flashing with contempt. I'd known she disliked me, but the depth of her hatred caught me off guard. Her expression revealed a long-simmering resentment, one that had been hiding beneath the surface."I've tolerated your presence for far too long, Nathaniel," Carolina spat, her voice venomous. "You think you're worthy of leading our pack? You're nothing but a weak, abandoned pup. A relic of a forgotten family."Memories resurfaced – Carolina's initial warmth when I first arrived, followed by years of cold indifference. She'd ignored me, made me feel invisible. Not as cruel as my parents, but her disregard still stung. I recalled the countless

Chapter: Accepting fateTHIRD PERSON POV Romario paced aggressively in his room, his feet tapping furiously on the floor. He was seething with anger, having just seen his pet walk out of Leonardo's room. What could have possibly drawn her to him? Leonardo didn't even like her."Stop tapping your feet so aggressively, you're giving me a headache," Namiro said, applying lip balm as she prepared for the wedding planner's arrival.Romario rolled his eyes, ignoring her. Living in the same house as Namiro was infuriating enough, and now she had moved into his room.Namiro turned to him, "Have you seen the pictures I sent you for the reception decoration?"Romario tilted his head back, "You sent me pictures?"Namiro bit her lip to contain her anger, "Yes, I did."Romario shrugged, "I didn't see them. Pick whatever you like, it's none of my business."Namiro's irritation grew, and she clicked her tongue against her upper lip. "Whether you like it or not, this wedding will happen!

Thankfully I was dressed, it seems like it was the master who dressed me before he left.I stood up from the bed, I saw a little note on his drawer, it read, “I had to leave early, I am so sorry but I would make it up to you. Love master.”I blushed as I shoved the note into my pocket, my skin felt very sticky and worse my body ached, but I don't regret last night.

Her determination to maintain appearances was admirable, but I wished she wouldn't feel obligated.Stretching, I headed to my father's office, curious about the news he promised. Hopefully, it was about the elusive mole Ken had been searching for.
