Ainsley felt physically satisfied. At that moment, they both reached a climax at the same time.

As they panted, experiencing the pleasure of their bodies, their hearts broke.

"Ainsley, I hate you," Eloise said hoarsely.

Ainsley's fingers trembled, but he still managed to wipe the beads of sweat from her forehead.

There was something inexplicable hidden behind his deep eyes, something that confused Eloise. However, the moment she looked into them, the familiar pain resurfaced from her numb heart, piercing her with sharp clarity.

Three years ago, just a single glance from him could make her heart race. She had naively believed he was the mate chosen for her by the Moon Goddess, that their love was destined. She never imagined he would be the one to bring her such endless pain.

Ainsley ran a hand over her forehead, wiping away the sweat.

"Don’t touch me," Eloise snapped, pushing his hand away. She glared at him coldly, even as he hovered over her. "Alpha Williams, I hate you. And I will h

  • Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection    Is Ainsley's Love Enough?

    In the middle of the night, only the sound of steady breathing filled the room.Eloise clamped her trembling hand over her mouth, trying to stifle the sound of her own horror. Her heartbeat pounded so violently that she thought Ainsley would wake up just from the force of it.What the hell was I thinking?She felt sick. The warmth of his skin still lingered on her fingers, the pulse of his life steady beneath her grip only moments ago.Her breath came in shallow gasps as she struggled to process what she had almost done. Mica/Rain… was that what you would have wanted? Would you have wanted me to kill him?Her entire body tensed as a cold shiver ran down her spine. Slowly, as if afraid she might startle a beast in slumber, she withdrew her hand from Ainsley’s neck. The air felt heavy, suffocating, as she stared at his face was peaceful and unguarded. He looks so different when he’s asleep… almost human.Tears burned at the edges of her eyes. She hated him, loathed him & despised him. Bu

  • Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection    She's just A Pawn in Their Evil Game.

    Ainsley’s body tensed as the warmth in his arms shifted.Something was off!.His eyes snapped open, and in the dim glow of the room, he caught sight of Eloise, her legs dangling off the side of the bed, her slender frame slipping from his grasp.Before she could touch the floor, he reached out and grabbed her wrist, yanking her back with force. Eloise let out a sharp gasp as she was pulled against his chest. Without hesitation, he repositioned her, forcing her down onto his lap."You really have no sense of fear, do you?" Ainsley’s voice was low, edged with warning.Eloise struggled, twisting in his grip. “Let me go!”Ainsley’s jaw tightened. Without another word, his palm landed on her backside with a sharp smack.Eloise froze. A second later, she realized what had just happened."Stop! Stop it!" she cried, her breath shaky.Ainsley exhaled slowly, his control razor-thin as he dragged his hand over the curve of her ass, his fingers teasing the heated skin.“Do you dare to run from me

  • Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection    Unveiling The Truth!.

    Thinking of Eloise, Ellison shook his head. I'm not that shameless. She's been pushed to the edge of survival, and now Alex still wants me to kill her. That poor woman? I'm not that terrible.At the other end of the line, Alex continued cursing Eloise.Hearing Alex's vicious words, irritation surged through Ellison. He raised a hand, ran his fingers through his hair, and snapped impatiently, “Enough.”His voice turned cold as he roared, “Beta Alex, I’ll say it again. If you want to kill someone, do it yourself. I will not stop you or help you.”Beta Alex got one thing right. If Eloise were to die, it would be good for me, too. The truth from three years ago will never come to light.“Ellison, you have to help me. Or I’ll tell Alpha Ainsley what you did three years ago.” Alex’s voice trembled with nervousness.Ellison let out a low chuckle. “Beta Alex, then you knew Eloise was innocent.”A heavy silence followed. Alex's grip on the phone tightened as realization struck.From the moment

    Ainsley turned his head, his sharp gaze piercing through the dimly lit study. Hank remained on his knees, his body tense.“I told you to look into things from three years ago.” Ainsley’s voice was calm, yet it held a quiet storm. His fingers drummed against the report on his desk, his expression darkening. “Hank, do you still think no one knows about it?”The weight of his words sent a chill down Hank’s spine. Ainsley tapped the report again. Once, twice...the sound was eerily sharp in the heavy silence. His jaw tightened. “I think they found out the moment you made a move. See? The proof here is perfect.”Ainsley’s mind churned with unanswered and unsettling questions. Why did Grandpa make that decision three years ago?His fingers curled into a fist as frustration gnawed at him. What happened three years ago? It haunted him, a relentless shadow. But even if it concerned the entire pack, there was no reason, none, that justified killing a pack member and framing Eloise of the Golden M

  • Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection    Evil Scheme.

    Ainsley threw her onto the bed. Before Eloise could sit up, the bed dipped beside her. She looked up. Ainsley was sitting on the edge of the bed, one of his hands holding up her left leg.Eloise's face suddenly turned pale. She couldn't help but look toward the door.There were so many people at the door. Did he want to have sex in front of everyone?With that possibility in mind, Eloise's face turned sullen. She extended her leg to kick Ainsley.Then, Ainsley tightened his grip on her ankle. He turned his head and looked at her with a warning in his eyes.Eloise's heart skipped a beat. She gritted her teeth and suppressed the urge to kick him. Ainsley held her ankle with his slender fingers and slowly lifted her foot.This action made Eloise feel embarrassed. She bit her lower lip, and her face turned pale.“Ainsley, if you want to humiliate me, there is nothing I can do!” Eloise was desperate.At that moment, she wanted to either die or tear the man in front of her to pieces. She sim

    “Miss Anthony!” Samantha snapped, shoving the dress toward Eloise’s hands.Eloise recoiled, her eyes narrowing as if the dress itself was repulsive. Her stomach twisted in disgust. The sight of the pristine white fabric made her want to scream. It was sickening and offensive.Before she could stop herself, she waved her hands in the air, desperate to shove the dress away.Then, something unexpected happened.In the struggle, Eloise’s hands shoved against Samantha with more force than intended. The stylist gasped as she stumbled backward.A sharp intake of breath filled the room, the silence.Eloise froze. Samantha hit the ground with a graceless thud, her coat flaring open as she landed. The impact wasn’t hard, but it was awkward, undignified.A split second later, two buttons popped off Samantha’s blouse, tumbling onto the floor with small, hollow clicks. The delicate fabric parted, revealing the soft swell of her cleavage.A beat of silence stretched.Samantha’s breath hitched. Her

    “No, it’s not Miss Anthony. This is the Luna of Litha Night Walker Pack,” Ainsley said.The makeup artist froze, her brush slipping slightly between her fingers. “What?”“She’s my mate.” Ainsley’s voice was firm, leaving no room for doubt. His sharp gaze settled on the makeup artist. “What do you think you should call her?”The woman’s face paled instantly. A thin sheen of sweat formed on her forehead, ruining the delicate makeup she had just applied. Her hands trembled as she lowered her head, realizing her mistake.At the back of the room, Alex stiffened.His head lifted slowly, his gaze locking onto Eloise.For a brief moment, an unreadable emotion flickered in his eyes. Then, he quickly lowered his gaze, but his clenched fists betrayed the turmoil within. His body remained motionless, yet the weight of his hatred and sorrow radiated from him like an unspoken scream.Ainsley turned to leave but suddenly halted. Without looking back, he spoke, his voice calm but carrying a quiet me

  • Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection    What's Alex Hiding?

    Alex's eyes widened. He looked at the phone, unable to believe what had just happened.Ellison had hung up. Just like that.How could Ellison just hang up on me?Fury surged through Alex. His breath turned ragged as his grip tightened on the phone. Then, with a sudden, violent motion, he grabbed the nearest object and smashed it against the wall. The sound of shattering glass echoed through the room, but it wasn’t enough to calm the storm inside him."Ellison!" he roared. "If you hadn’t intervened, my sister Aura wouldn’t have died!"His chest heaved as anger consumed him.And now Ellison wants to get rid of everything? His eyes burned with rage. I will never allow that!His thoughts twisted like a viper coiling around its prey. If those scoundrels had really returned to Metrocity, it was only a matter of time before Alpha Ainsley found them. What will happen to Aura’s reputation once the truth comes out?The thought alone sent a fresh wave of fury through him. His grip on the phone t

    Eloise collapsed to the ground, her heart racing. Ainsley knelt beside her, panting.“You’re such a bad girl,” he groaned with a crooked grin.She blinked, then laughed. The sound surprised even her.They leaned on each other as they walked home. Eloise winced with every step.Inside, she locked the door behind them and turned to Ainsley. “Why were you there?” She asked with a frown.He looked sheepish. “From the balcony… I watched you leave for work. And I wait for your return. I always have.”Eloise froze. That… she hadn’t expected.“I’m not stalking you,” he added quickly. “I just… feel safer knowing you made it home.”Her throat closed. She didn’t speak.Later that evening, after cleaning Ainsley’s wounds, Eloise sat in her office, the silence pressing on her.Jacob had just finished a quick check-in. Mandy arrived, knocking gently.“Find the leak yet?” Eloise asked.Mandy sighed. “No. It’s like they vanished.”“Stop the investigation.”Mandy blinked rapidly. “What, why? Shouldn’t

    When she arrived at the Anthony Group, Mandy’s jaw dropped and her eyes were wide open.“Miss Anthony? You’re here early.”“Give me the proposal for the Jack Ray partnership. "I need to reconsider several details to make it profitable,” Eloise said.“But… are you sure you want to review that again?” Mandy asked hesitantly."I think they'll be delighted to see a revised proposal, especially one that could bring more profit for both sides. Mandy, in this world, no one walks away from money."Mandy blinked. That wasn’t the Eloise she knew.“O-okay,” she stammered, retreating. She wanted to pull Eloise out of her emotional spiral, but hearing her talk business with such coldness was unnerving.In the office, Eloise sat across from Jack Ray.“I’ve outlined the additional terms for the partnership. These revisions will double our projected profits. Mr. Jack, you should reconsider before dismissing the offer,” she said.Jack frowned, visibly disappointed. Can’t we just talk like two people,

    The bedroom door creaked open. Eloise looked up from her book, startled. Ainsley stood there, his face unreadable, a folded blanket in his arms. Without a word, he stepped in, laid the blanket on the floor beside the bed, and began unrolling it with deliberate care.“What are you doing?” Eloise asked, her brow furrowing.Ainsley lay down on the makeshift bed, turning his back to her.“You're not allowed to sleep here,” she said in a cold and dispassionate voice. “Ainsley, go away!” she shouted, frustration bubbling over.However, Ainsley sat up abruptly, glaring at her. “Just send me away tomorrow! I don’t care! But don’t think you can kick me out tonight!”Eloise was taken aback. It was the first time eight-year-old Ainsley had raised his voice at her.“You want to kick me out. You're sick, and no one will take care of you. You're unreasonable!” he shouted again.She stared at him, speechless. The room fell into a tense silence, the only light coming from a dim night lamp.Suddenly,

    Time passed slowly.Eloise glanced at her wristwatch again, her brows knitting in frustration. The ticking felt like it echoed louder in the room than it had any right to, like each second was dragging its feet, deliberately mocking her patience. She shifted slightly in her seat, the silence becoming more stifling by the minute. Ainsley sat across from her, completely still, his small eyes trained on her face with an eerie calmness.The shrill ring of her phone startled her.Her body tensed instinctively. She snatched the phone from the table, her thumb sliding across the screen to answer.“Are you here yet?” she asked sharply.From the other end, Eric’s voice came hurried, uneven, and heavy with movement. He was clearly in motion. “I can’t come,” he said, no greeting, just urgency. “I’ll leave Ainsley with you for now.”Eloise shot upright. “Wait a minute,” she snapped. “Leave him with me for now? Isn’t Hank there?”She heard the sigh in Eric’s throat before he spoke. “Hank isn’t fre

    Stepping aside, Eloise said in a formal tone, “Let me introduce you. This is Jack Ray, the representative of our partner.”Mandy, blinking in confusion, stepped forward and extended her hand politely. "Hello….."“Mandy, I’ll follow the project this time,” Eloise cut in swiftly, not allowing her to finish.Mandy froze, utterly bewildered.Eloise leaned close and whispered in her ear, “I’ll explain after we get back.”Jack personally walked them all the way to the car, his gaze never leaving Eloise until she disappeared from his sight.Inside the car, Eloise slumped back against the seat.“Have you met Jack before?” Mandy asked curiously as they neared the Moonlight Garden. “I thought I was going to be in charge of the project?”Eloise forced a smile. “Don't misunderstand. There are certain things about this project I need to handle personally. You've been working so hard, Mandy. You deserve a break.”Mandy still looked unsure. “Okay… but rest well after this problem is solved, okay?”A

    The secretary suddenly stood up, her voice hurried and apologetic. “I’m sorry, Mandy." Our president said he wanted to meet with Ms. Anthony alone to seek cooperation this time.”Eloise, Mandy, and the other Anthony Group representatives exchanged confused glances, uncertainty flickering between them. What a strange request! Suspicion brewed silently in the air.Mandy parted her lips to protest, but Eloise reached out, stopping her with a firm hand. “Take the others out of the conference room,” she instructed quietly, her voice calm but commanding.“But…” Mandy’s brows furrowed in deep worry. She didn’t want to leave Eloise alone.Eloise looked at her steadily, her gaze unwavering, burning with determination. “Mandy, you know how important this cooperation is to me.”It wasn’t just important to her; it was crucial to the future of the Anthony Group. It was everything.Mandy hesitated a moment longer, then finally nodded. “Let’s go,” she said, her voice reluctant. She signaled the othe

  • Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection    Anthony Group’s Embezzlement.

    Ainsley was in a pitiful state; his clothes soaked through, his shoes worn out beyond recognition. He must have been searching for her for a long, long time, wandering alone through the rain.“Get in the car,” Eloise said urgently, her voice cracking as she took his trembling hand.Leading him carefully, she guided him back to the car, shielding him as best she could from the relentless rain.She pulled open the back seat door and gestured for him to climb in. But Ainsley stubbornly shook his head, water flying from his wet hair.“No,” he said firmly.“Why?” Eloise asked, frowning deeply, confused by his sudden refusal.“I don’t want to sit in the back seat, I want to sit there.” He pointed insistently at the passenger seat beside her.Eloise blinked, momentarily stunned. She didn’t quite understand what difference it made, but for Ainsley, it clearly meant everything.“I want to sit next to you,” he said seriously, his eyes locked onto hers, filled with an intensity that surprised h

    “No reward?” Ainsley’s mouth trembled, and he looked like he might burst into tears at any second.Eloise bit her lip hard. “Of course, you get a reward. Like I said, you did great.” She reached out and ruffled his hair. The next moment, she froze as Ainsley, clearly overjoyed, rested his head contentedly on her shoulder.Just then, Eric came up behind them, his voice low. “Everything’s ready, we can send it now.”No one spoke. The tension in the air was almost unbearable as they quietly got into the car. As the vehicle rolled down the dark road, Eloise stole a glance at Ainsley, who had already fallen asleep beside her.He used to occupy most of her life — in every memory, every thought. Now, the air inside the car felt stifling. Eloise turned her head sharply to the window, blinking hard. He couldn’t remember anything.All the entanglements they once shared ; love, hate and pain, now belonged to her alone.The car headed farther into the remote outskirts, taking a dark road lined wi

  • Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection    Hope.

    Eric hesitated, concern flickering across his face, but finally he nodded and stepped out, shutting the door behind him with a soft thud. Silence swallowed the room. Eloise stood motionless for a long, long time. The steady beeping of machines was the only sound, each one a harsh reminder of how fragile life was.Finally, she moved. Slow, heavy steps carried her to Ainsley’s bedside. She reached out with a trembling hand but stopped an inch from touching him.Instead, she sank into the chair beside him, folding her hands tightly in her lap to hide how badly they shook. She didn’t cry. She didn’t scream. She just sat there, hour after hour, her eyes never leaving his broken body.Five days and nights blurred into each other.Every time Eric or Jacob tried to pull her away, she stayed rooted there.“Won’t it hurt her if she doesn’t cry?” Eric asked once, whispering in a low voice, watching her through the window.“I’ve been through worse,” Eloise heard it she croaked, her voice raw and
