Married to My Worst Enemy 14: The Wedding
NinaThree months ago, I had stood in this same mirror and wondered how my life had gone so wrong.Today, I was staring at a woman dressed in white.My wedding dress.My wedding.His wedding.Alex’s.I swallowed hard.“You look beautiful.”Kimora’s voice came from behind me.I looked at her through the mirror. She was standing there with her arms folded, her expression unusually soft.“Beautiful enough to marry my worst enemy?”She smiled.“Unfortunately, yes.”I laughed despite myself.For a few seconds, everything felt normal.Then my eyes dropped to the ring on my finger.The diamond caught the light.Alex had placed it there weeks ago, but somehow it felt different today.Permanent.Real.Terrifying.I wasn’t marrying him because I hated him anymore.That was the problem.I wasn’t sure what I felt for him now.I thought about the way he looked at me when he thought I wasn’t watching.The way he’d touched my face.The way he’d kissed me.The way he’d told me he’d loved me since we
Married to My Worst Enemy 13: Don’t fall for me
AlexSomeone she knew.Those three words had been sitting between us like a loaded gun.Nina stared at me.“Who?”I didn’t answer immediately.Not because I didn’t know.Because I did.And I wasn’t ready to tell her.“Alex.”I stepped closer.“There’s something I need you to understand.”Her expression hardened.“If you’re about to tell me to trust you without explaining anything, don’t.”I almost smiled.Still Nina.Still challenging me even when she was afraid.“You’re right.”She blinked.“I am?”“Yes.”I took a breath.“You deserve answers.”“Then give me some.”“I will.”“When?”“Soon.”She groaned.“That’s not an answer.”“I know.”I reached for her hand.She let me take it.That small gesture affected me more than it should have.Especially after what had happened between us.The kiss.I could still feel her lips against mine.And now that I’d finally had her, I wanted more.Much more.That was precisely why I needed distance.Because I knew myself.Once I allowed myself to hav
Married to My Worst Enemy 12: The Kiss
The KissNinaI couldn’t breathe.Not properly.I was staring at Alex, but my mind was stuck on the words he’d just said.Because I’m hiding it because I love you.He loved me.Alex Sterling loved me.The man who had spent years arguing with me.The man who had looked at me like I was the most irritating person he’d ever met.The man I had convinced myself couldn’t stand me.Loved me.“You…”My voice barely came out.Alex’s expression changed.He looked almost frightened.Not of me.Of what he’d just admitted.“Nina.”“You love me?”He closed his eyes briefly.“I shouldn’t have said that.”“No.”I stepped closer.“You don’t get to say something like that and then walk away.”“I wasn’t going to.”“Then tell me.”His emerald eyes met mine.“I’ve loved you since we were nineteen.”Everything inside me went still.“Nineteen?”He nodded.“All this time?”“Yes.”I shook my head.“But you hated me.”“I never hated you.”“You made me believe you did.”“I know.”“Why?”His jaw tightened.“Beca
Married to My Worst Enemy 11: His Weakness
AlexI woke up the next morning knowing I had made a mistake.Not because I had almost kissed Nina.That part wasn’t the mistake.The mistake was letting her see me.Not Alex Sterling—the billionaire, the businessman, the man who never loses control.Just me.The man who had loved her for thirteen years.I stood in front of the mirror, fastening the buttons of my shirt.Three years.Three years of keeping my distance.Three years of convincing myself that staying away from Nina was the only way to keep her safe.And now she was sleeping under my roof.I was losing the control I’d spent years building.My phone rang.Lucian.I answered.“Tell me.”His voice was serious.“We have a problem.”I walked toward my desk.“What happened?”“The security team found something.”My stomach tightened.“What?”“A vehicle has been watching the penthouse.”I went completely still.“How long?”“Three nights.”Three nights.Since Nina moved in.“Do we know who?”“Not yet.”I grabbed my jacket.“Keep th
Married to My Worst Enemy 10: The Night We Forgot To Hate
NinaI couldn’t sleep.Which was ridiculous.It was almost two in the morning, and I had been staring at the ceiling for what felt like hours.All I could think about was Alex.More specifically—His lips.The way he had looked at me on the balcony.The way he’d admitted that if I hadn’t told him not to kiss me, he would have.I rolled onto my side.“This is a disaster.”I hated him.I had to remember that.He was arrogant.Controlling.Infuriating.And he was the reason I was living in a penthouse I hadn’t chosen, preparing for a marriage I hadn’t asked for.So why did my heart beat faster whenever he got close?I threw the blanket off and got out of bed.I needed water.Maybe that would clear my head.The penthouse was completely silent when I walked downstairs.Except for the soft sound of music.I followed it.The lights in the living room were dim.Alex stood by the windows.He was wearing black sweatpants and a plain white T-shirt.No suit.No expensive watch.No perfectly style
Married to My Worst Enemy 9: Almost
AlexI knew Nina was jealous.She thought she was hiding it.She wasn’t.The moment Victoria touched my arm, Nina’s entire expression changed.It should have amused me.Instead, I found myself wondering whether she cared.And that was dangerous.Because I had spent years convincing myself that wanting her was something I could control.Living with her was making that lie harder to maintain.I watched her from across the room as she spoke with Kimora.She looked beautiful.Not because she was dressed for attention.Because she wasn’t trying.That was always the problem with Nina.She never needed to try.She caught me staring.“What?”“Nothing.”“You’re staring.”“I was thinking.”“About?”I walked toward her.“You.”Her eyes widened slightly.“I doubt that.”“You shouldn’t.”She crossed her arms.“Was that woman your girlfriend?”“No.”“Ex?”“No.”“Someone you’re sleeping with?”My eyebrow lifted.“Are you asking because you care?”“No.”“Then why are you asking?”She opened her mouth
