MY ENEMY'S DAUGHTER LOVE IN THE OPEN, WAR IN THE WAITING
AVELINA’s POVVincenzo is gone and the house feels calmer and settled. Allessandro is still holding on to me as his hands rest firmly on my back as if scared I’ll evaporate.“You didn’t do anything wrong, you were brave when you stood up to him.” He says like he could hear my thoughts“You did nothing wrong,” he says softly, as if he can hear the thoughts I’m trying to bury.I lift my head. “He made me doubt myself.”Alessandro’s jaw tightens, but his voice stays gentle. “He wanted to twist your mind against me.”He guides me to the couch and sits beside me, pulling me into his side. Emilio stands a few steps away, watching us but also giving us space.“I keep thinking about my father,” I whisper. “About how he trusted him.”Alessandro nods once. “Your father trusted many people. That doesn’t mean they all deserved it.”I lean into his chest, listening to the steady rhythm beneath his shirt. “What if he was right about one thing?”He tilts my chin up until I have no choice but to meet
MY ENEMY'S DAUGHTER A NAME FROM THE PAST
AVELINA'S POVI sit in the hall with Emilio when his phone rings. He answers but doesn’t say anything to the person on the other end. His posture changes, and I immediately sense something is wrong. His eyes turn to me, sharp and alert.Allessandro still isn’t back from his meeting, and that realization hits my chest like a rock.“Who is it?” I ask quietly.Emilio ends the call without answering my question right away.“Was it Allessandro?” I ask again after a long silence.“No,” Emilio finally says. “It’s not Alessandro.”My fingers grip the arm of the chair. “Then who?”He hesitates before walking toward me. “He knows you. He asked about you,” he says, taking my hand.The room suddenly feels cramped, the air thick and stuffy.“That can’t be true. Nobody from my family knows where I am, not even Aunt Lucia,” I say.“He’s already in the house and insists on seeing you,” Emilio says, cutting into my thoughts.“But why?” My heart pounds against my chest.“The Don warned him not to come
MY ENEMY'S DAUGHTER PERMANENCE AND CONSEQUENCES
ALLESSANDRO’S POVGenoa is a city that goes on with its business as though nothing ever happened. The shops are opened and traffic is as it always is. People are laughing as they talk to one another. Predators thrive in places like this, in noise, in routine. I sit with Avelina at the back seat of the car with her head slightly resting on the window. She’s seating so calmly though I know she has a lot on her mind. I lightly place my hand on her palm.“I think he’s tracking our every move,” I say quietly, more to Emilio than to her. Emilio nods from the front seat. “He is trying to know our locations and everything about Avelina’s appointments.” “Yes,” I reply. “But he’s getting impatient.” Avelina turns her head slightly. “Because of the baby.” “Yes,” I answer without hesitation. “Because permanence scares men who rely on control.” Emilio drives as the car turns slightly into the garage of the safe house. The gate is closed immediately we get in. I hold Avelina’s hand as I lead
MY ENEMY'S DAUGHTER HIS REAPPEARANCE
AVELINA'S POVMy phone vibrates in hand as i lay on the bed. A single message from an unknown number which causes my chest to tighten. Allessandro is in his study having a chat with Emilio which means i am alone in the room. My fingers lingers on the phone before opening it to read the message.Unknown"You're looking nice these days. I am glad you're doing well."I try to reread it again as my fingers go cold, nobody knows this number except Allessandro and Emilio.

MY ENEMY'S DAUGHTER OVERPROTECTIVE FATHER
ALLESSANDRO’S POVMy phone rings for too long. Endless messages are never a sign of good news. I sit in the study when Emilio walks in without knocking. He is silent, staring at me.“Say it,” I tell him.“Word’s moving,” he says. “Quietly. But it’s moving.”My jaw tightens. “How far?”“Enough that it reached people who shouldn’t be curious anymore.”Lucia. Orlando. We don’t need to say the names. I stand and adjust my cuffs. “Increase rotations. No patterns. No predictable routes. Avelina doesn’t leave the house without me or you. And I want eyes on everyone who smiled at us in the last month.”Emilio nods once. “Already started.”Good. I leave the study and walk upstairs._________________________________________________________________________________________________________AVELINA’S POVI can feel Allessandro outside the window before I see him. The door opens, and the atmosphere changes. Alessandro walks in like he’s carrying a weight he doesn’t want me to touch. His jacket is of
MY ENEMY'S DAUGHTER BLOODLINE AND WEAKNESSES
AVELINA’S POV As I stand in front of the mirror, smoothing my dress, I feel how soft and loose it is around my waist. A lot has changed since I became pregnant. Allessandro has updated my wardrobe, giving me new choices. He watches me from the doorway, looking distracted. “You shouldn’t stare at me like that,” I say softly. “I have to,” he replies. “You look pretty.” I laugh. “I’m just going out for dinner.” “This is your first outing since we got the news about the baby,” he says, adjusting his shirt. “You’re acting like it’s a big deal.” “It is.” His hand rests on my lower back, grounding and warm. When he leads me outside, the cool night air brushes against my skin, fragrant with the sea. The car is waiting, and the guards stand discreet but close. He opens the door for me, as he always does. Genoa is alive with energy. Laughter and soft music spill out from the restaurant as people go about their evening. For the first time, I don’t feel like an outsider. The
