All Chapters of Mated to My Enemy: The Sinful Bond That Binds Us: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Brant I was in the gym with Jericho. I had hired him to be my personal trainer for the upcoming fight. Apart from being a skilled fighter, Jericho is a great trainer. He’s worked with many people, including those involved in street fights.When I arrived today, he asked me about Marirose. I told him she was fine, and I was genuinely glad she was. I was relieved that she wasn't pregnant, and that wasn’t the reason I hadn’t had sex with her since we returned to the mansion.And the real reason she fainted was the physical toll of Leslie’s brutality. Even though the scar is now almost invisible, the emotional trauma remains deeply rooted in her mind.That was Leslie’s goal with what she called “punishment.” She was very different from Lucas. While Lucas kills on the spot, Leslie makes sure the pain stays with you, engraved into your soul. Ever since she told me about the fight, I haven’t gone to see her. She exhausts me mentally and emotionally.The ironic thing is, the only woman my wo

Brant The door opened, and Leslie walked in with a bottle of wine and two glasses.She sat beside me, placing them on the table in front of us. Wrapping her arms around my neck, she leaned in and gave me a soft peck on the lips.She smiled, clearly expecting a reaction, but I just stared back at her, deadpan. If she thought something was going to happen between us, she was dead wrong.She let go and tried to play it cool, pretending another rejection from me didn’t bother her. But I could see it in her eyes. Eyes never lie.She poured the wine into both glasses and handed me one. I took it and gulped it down without much thought.“Can you remember when you sat right there and watched me getting banged right on this couch?” she asked, her tone sultry. “It turned you on so fucking bad.”“I remember everything that happened in this bloody room, Leslie,” I said coldly.“Don’t you miss the thrill?” she leaned in, licking her lips. “I can call one of the best girls. You want a blowjob? Wha

BrantI woke up with a sharp pain in my head, blinking as my eyes adjusted to my surroundings. Damn Leslie.I looked around and realized I was in my bedroom, and Dani was sitting beside me, her head resting against the headboard, eyes closed. She must have slept like that, staying up all night to take care of my grown-ass self.I winced as I sat up, gently adjusting her so she could lie down more comfortably. Her eyes fluttered open, worry already written across her face.“Brant… be careful,” she said softly.“Dani… I’m alright. Stop worrying about me,” I replied. It’s time this woman stopped worrying about us. She deserved to retire, to rest, and let us take care of her for once.“It’s alright, my son. I’ll always worry about you. Your mother would never forgive me if I didn’t. And besides,” she smiled faintly, “I love taking care of you.”I gave her a wry smile and held her hand. “She would forgive you,” I said. “My mother knows you deserve rest. Now, why don’t you go have your brea

We arrived at a vast property, stretching out into the distance with wide, open fields that seemed to go on forever. Rolling grass spread in every direction, kissed by the fading light of the sun and the whisper of the wind. But it was eerily empty.“Why is this place so empty?” I asked as I got out of his car and walked around to his side. We started walking deeper into the property, our hands brushing against each other.“Because Rhett doesn’t give a crap about this place. I’m actually the only one who comes out here when I have the time,” he said, leading us toward a horse pen. There were at least five horses inside, though I can't remember exactly.An elderly man approached us. “Brant!” he called.Brant turned with a smile and gave him a quick hug. “How are you, Jimmy?”“Fantástico,” Jimmy replied.A majestic horse walked toward us and stuck its head through the fence. Brant gently caressed its muzzle. “Get him ready,” Brant said.Then he turned toward me and took my hand. His tou

I woke up the next morning to find the bed empty. Joss had spent the night with me. We hadn’t had sex; he’d only held me, his arms wrapped around me as I drifted in and out of sleep.But even with him beside me, all I could think about was Brant.I couldn’t get him out of my head—the way he kissed me, the way his fingers moved inside me.The way he made me feel like my body belonged to him.How much I needed him right now…I forced myself out of bed and into the shower, trying to focus on not being late for breakfast. The warm water didn’t wash him out of my mind or my body.When I finally made my way downstairs, the Paxton brothers were already seated at the dining table. I greeted them, and Joss stood to pull out a chair for me.I sat and ate in silence, my mind elsewhere, my thoughts full of him even though he was right in front of me.Right before breakfast ended, Joss stood.“I have an announcement to make… or maybe I should say a proposal to make.”Kit let out a low whistle, mak
