Falling For my Fiancé’s Enemy

WILLIAMThe room still smelled of her. Her perfume clung to the sheets, light and sweet. I moved slowly toward the bed, with my fingers brushing over the rumpled duvet where she had lain only minutes ago. Already, my body ached with the absence of hers and my chest felt too tight with my head ringing too loudly.I bent forward and pressed my lips to the pillow she had used, kissing the ghost of her. Everything about her was making me crazy. The way she trembled, the way she wouldn’t look at me when she lied about why she was here. It was all a night that started with her mistaking me for her fiancé. They were the couple everyone wanted.While I had always watched her from afar for a year, it wasn't until last month that she got closer to me. She and her team hated me so much because we were also enemies on the field.That night when she had taken me to be Levi there was no way I would have made the decision not to sleep with her.It was like a nightmare to her but a pure blessing to

SKYI sank into the couch of my apartment, mindlessly shoving popcorn into my mouth as I watched William in the finals. My anger simmered beneath the surface, and I couldn’t stop thinking about my suspension. It wasn't my fault.Watching the replay over and over, it was obvious the mistake had been Levi’s, not mine. I clenched my fists and let it go since he was the one but it was better for me to take the fall than him even though I still find it weird that the coach didn't even claim anything, rather he suspended me.I watched how William played right in the finals, though he wanted to give up the match for me. Well weird to think that I was that important.Watching him on the field, I felt hurt, and also admired him every pass, and how he played with ease made me admire his moves. It was easy to see why he was captain, and all I could do was sit there, popcorn in hand, bitter and helpless, watching him shine.He had been calling and texting me all week, but I ignored him. Oh let's

SKY“Get down,” I hissed quickly, snatching Levi’s phone from the table and rushing into the living room before Levi could come to the dining area.“This is it,” I muttered, slightly breathless as I stretched the phone to him.He stared at me for a moment before walking closer and taking the phone from my hand. “Are you okay?”“Of course,” I said softly, forcing a smile. “I am fine.” I tried to convince myself more than him.He nodded once and turned away, heading outside. “I will be back tonight… have a nice day ahead.” he let out a small smile as I could only watch him walk off.I didn’t waste a second before I locked the door behind him. I wasn’t about to risk this happening again.I sat back on the couch, exhaling deeply. But a second later, the cushion dipped beside me, he didn't even give me a second to breathe.I rolled my eyes changing the channel, anything to keep my mind off his annoying self. “Go eat your fo…”Before I could finish, he yanked me toward him.“I prefer tastin

SKYLARI stared at my reflection in the mirror longer than necessary, tilting my head slightly to the left, then to the right, as if the angle might suddenly tell me whether I looked ready to meet Levi’s parents.My fingers smoothed over the fabric of my dress again. It already fits perfectly but wasn’t the problem.Levi had called earlier to tell me he wanted me to come over for dinner with his parents. He apologized repeatedly, saying he knew I would cook for him and that he had wasted the food and broken his promise. That, however, was a lie. I never cooked. I had not been myself all morning. No matter how hard I tried to comfort myself, telling myself that it was only a small suspension and that I would be fine, the feeling refused to ease. I still felt terrible. It should have made things easier, but it did not.Now I am frustrated, and I did not want to go to his parents’ house, not after taking the blame for their son’s suspension. Being there would only make me feel even mor

SKY “You look beautiful.” His voice lingered behind me, low and so irritating to my ears right now. He had decided to bring me to one of his private suites so he could get me a new dress and touch up my makeup. I stared at my reflection in the mirror for a second longer, my fingers tightening around the edge of the dressing table. Then I stood up, pushing the chair back with my leg, and walked straight toward the door without answering him. I heard movement behind me and stopped, turning. “Do you want to ruin this one again?” I asked calmly. He halted immediately, shoulders stiffening as if he had hit an invisible wall. “I am sorry,” he said quickly. “I lost control, so it won’t happen again. I promise just forgive me, this once.” I crossed my arms staring back at him. “So?” He hesitated, with his eyes flickering. “So… you are not following the contract.” I let out a short, disbelieving laugh. “I told you already. I love Levi, sleeping with you doesn’t mean I am
