Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection Epilogue: New Addition...
Ainsley had been in a coma for two long months. The first days were the hardest…..uncertainty hung in the air like fog, and every beep of the monitors felt like a countdown. But on the sixtieth day, just after dawn, he stirred. His fingers twitched, his brow creased, and then his eyes fluttered open.The world came back slowly.The first thing Ainsley saw was white. Then gray. Then the familiar face of Eric, who had been hovering near the bed, half-asleep with a mug of stale coffee.“You’re finally awake,” Eric grunted. “Don’t look so disappointed, I’m not Eloise.”Ainsley blinked. “Where is she?”Eric rolled his eyes. “Two months in a coma, and your first thought is her." Not even a ‘Thanks for saving my life, Eric.’ Touching.”Ainsley tried to sit up but groaned as pain shot through his ribs.“Easy,” Eric said, pushing him back down. “You’re still made of glass.”“But she… she was here, wasn’t she?” Ainsley rasped, his eyes watered. “She hates me… I can’t force her back.”Eric rolle
Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection Shameless Couple.
By the time he was handed a fifth, he stared at the fruit like it had betrayed him. “I can’t eat this much. And I don’t even like apples that much.”Eloise didn’t skip a beat. “Eat, or you won’t have strength.”Ainsley blinked. “Strength for what? Are we fighting a bear later?” he asked.She didn’t answer. Instead, she rose and walked toward the bedroom door without another word. A strange emptiness crept into Ainsley’s chest. He watched her back as she walked away, wanting to call her name but not knowing what to say. His heart ached, the weight of everything pressing down like stone. He didn’t understand why she’d come now. Why was she doing this?Then he heard it….the soft, deliberate click of the door locking.Moments later, she returned.Eloise stood at the foot of the bed, her eyes unreadable. She held his gaze for a long, silent second. Then a tiny smirk touched her lips.“You’re awake,” she said casually. “Good. If you’re planning to die, I should go first.”Ainsley blinked, c
Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection One Question!
“Eloise, you’re not being honest with yourself,” Rachael said firmly with her arms crossed on her chest, eyes sharp with frustration. I asked if you still loved him, and you froze. That hesitation? It says more than any answer you could’ve given.”Eloise stayed silent, her fingers curling tightly around her bag strap. She stared at the floor, as if it could swallow her whole.“You’ve been running ever since. Three years ago, you left without a trace. And now? "You’re still running, It’s like nothing has changed at all,” Rachael continued. Her voice was quieter now, but the words hit harder. “Do you really think hiding on some beach will make everything okay? Waikiki isn’t peace, Eloise. It’s just distance….distance from him….from yourself.”“Stop,” Eloise muttered, her voice trembling. “Please just stop talking.”But Rachael stepped closer. “No. You need to hear this.”Eloise turned away, but Rachael wasn’t done. “You think you’re calm? You’re not. You’re tired. You’ve been pretendin
Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection Repentance...
Outside the VIP room of the hospital, the hallway was quiet, but tension clung to the air like fog. Then, without warning, a tall figure appeared at the door. The guards looked uncertain, but before they could stop him, a calm voice came from inside. “Let him in,” Ainsley said.The door creaked open, and Ellison walked in with a relaxed swagger, his hands in his pockets, a smirk already forming.“You’re surprisingly well-informed,” Ainsley muttered, lying weakly on the hospital bed. His face was pale, his lips almost colorless, but his eyes still held that old sharp glint. “Didn’t expect you.”Ellison smiled weakly and walked to the chair beside the bed. “Yeah, well… I didn’t expect to come either. Guess I’m full of surprises.”Ainsley let out a low chuckle that turned into a cough. “Still joking.”“Yeah,” Ellison said, pulling up the chair. “Still trying to lighten the mood.”There was a pause. The silence stretched, not awkward but heavy. Then Ellison leaned forward. “You look like

“Don’t move. "I just want to look at you,” Ainsley whispered, his lips curled into a smirk. He stood very close, the scent of his cologne clinging to her skin like a bitter memory. Eloise didn’t flinch, but her stomach tightened. His tone wasn’t gentle. It was mocking, like he was savoring the final moments before a kill. She raised her eyes anyway. His gaze locked onto hers….black, hollow, pulling her in like a void. For a split second, something flickered….heat, longing, regret; but it vanished, swallowed by the cold.Then he pulled back with a scoff. “Oh! Moongoddess....look at you,” he muttered. “Still hoping there’s something left between us?”Eloise’s chest rose and fell, slow and steady. “You dragged me into this mess, remember?”Ainsley chuckled bitterly. “Dragged you in? You clung to me like a lifeline. Let’s not rewrite history, Eloise.”He reached into his coat pocket, produced a neatly folded sheet of paper, and thrust it into her hands. “You wanted to go. Here’s your way
Mated to her Enemy: Refusing his Rejection No Love Left.
Half a month had crawled by, Eloise hadn’t seen Ainsley once. Hank showed up occasionally, always in a rush, dropping off clothes like he was trying not to be seen. The pack house guards moved differently now, stiffer, more alert, their faces tight with something she couldn’t read.She stood at the window of her small room, watching the driveway beyond the tall gate, her reflection hollow in the glass.Then, one afternoon, the heavy iron gates creaked open again.Her heart jerked. A black Bentley rolled through.From the second-floor landing, she stared. Her breath caught in her throat. That was his car.She didn’t move. Her fingers gripped the railing. She was frozen in a place between resentment and feelings far more dangerous; hope.He was back.Kevin knocked once and pushed open her door without waiting for permission. He didn’t look at her. “Alpha wants to see you. Now.”Eloise stood rigid. Her voice was dry. “Can I say no?”Kevin didn’t answer. He was already halfway down the ha

Eloise’s brow twitched slightly. Her calm gaze faltered for a second.Jacob caught it. That tiny flicker of emotion sent a surge of rage through him. He threw the apple aside.“Aren’t you worried? "Don’t you care what could’ve happened to him?” he snapped, his eyes burning into her face.Eloise turn

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 becomin

“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 conte
