BIANCA

I watched him watch me from the bed. For a second I thought he was going to kiss me but he held back and that surprised me more than if he had actually tried.

Men like him usually lack restraint. I have been around them, powerful men. That makes me wonder if his willingness to help me fight for a woman we both do not know is just a manipulation tactic.

Either way I refuse to make the move to see how he would react no matter how curious I am.

When he finally looked away, he headed to the bathroom.

I pulled the robe tightly around me and searched the internet for a General Enzo Kross. I actually found something.

He is a decorated military official in Italy’s Joint Defense Command. A stoic war hero known for his discipline, patriotism, and hardline stance on crime and corruption. He is respected by government officials and feared by his subordinates.

I searched for any posts relating to his wife and found numerous pictures of her doing charity work for hospitals, churches, and orp

  • MY EX ENEMY IS OBSESSED WITH ME   DIED

    BIANCA’S POVJohn tugged the rope off my feet first before untying my hands. His gun was raised at me, daring me to do anything rash. I followed his instructions. He moved behind me, dragging Veronica’s body behind him. She was probably dead because she wasn’t even responsive. “Turn to the right,” he said. I turned right and saw he had already dug two shallow graves. One for me and one for her. My chest tightened. “Stop,” he said. I paused. “You must be wondering why I dug two graves,” he said, standing in front of me now. “And whatever you're thinking is right. One is for you and the other is for Veronica.”I swallowed. “But I’m not going to kill you yet,” he said, something glimmering in his eyes. “We’re going to be in love forever. This is only here for when you misbehave or try to leave me again.”“John… listen to me,” I said, my throat parched. “I’m not your soulmate. Please just let me go. I won’t inform the police, I swear.”He laughed. “Like hell I will. Now, you have

  • MY EX ENEMY IS OBSESSED WITH ME   THE WAY

    ROBERTO’S POV The flight back to Italy felt like hell. I was sat between Vanessa and my uncle Victor. She went on and on about how things used to be between us and how much she missed them. I ignored her. As if that wasn’t hell enough, Uncle Victor was talking about a ship filled with drugs that he wanted me to help smuggle into the country. I exhaled. “No. I’m not doing that. I gave up that life long ago.” “That’s not my concern,” Victor said. “A woman like Bianca who knows her worth won’t take you back. She’s gone and the earlier you accept that, the better for us all.” I swallowed. He was right. Unless I found a way to prove it was either kiss my ex or let her die, she wouldn’t forgive me. “It’s still not happening,” I said. He smiled. “I thought you might say that. So I’m going to remind you what’s at stake. You’ve lost your woman, do you want to loose your sister too?” My hands tightened on the armrests until my knuckles went white. I could taste the metal of th

  • MY EX ENEMY IS OBSESSED WITH ME   GHOST FROM THE PAST

    BIANCA’S POV Morning came slower than I would have liked. My eyes were open all night, afraid to be killed in my sleep. But staying awake wasn’t easy either. I replayed the kiss between Rob and Vanessa a thousand times in my head, wondering what could have happened. I was finally ready to give us another chance. A chance he begged for. What happened? The door pushed open and my kidnapper stepped in, dragging a woman behind him. She was bloodied and limp but still alive. She was tied up. He dropped her at my feet like a bag of garbage. “Recognize her now?” he asked. My gaze darted from him to the woman’s face. Blood matted her hair, but when I looked closer, my stomach twisted. It was Veronica, the doctor who invited me to their work bonfire. I raised my eyes to my kidnapper’s face. “What did you do to her?” I whispered. He crouched down, his face still hidden beneath the hood. “You’re the reason she’s this way. You caused it when you accepted her invitation to tha

  • MY EX ENEMY IS OBSESSED WITH ME   THE REAL DEAL

    ROBERTO’S POV I pushed Vanessa away the moment Bianca walked out of the room. “Get away from me.” “Oh, daddy,” she cooed. “Don’t act like you didn’t enjoy the kiss.” I didn’t respond. I wouldn’t be able to hold myself back from doing something stupid if I engaged with her. Victor walked out of the bathroom with a smile on his face. “I heard everything and I must say, I didn’t feel that was just an act.” “You’ve gotten what you wanted. I broke her trust and she’s gone now so what do you want?” I asked. He smirked as he poured wine into the glass on his table. “I want us to celebrate. With her gone, there’s no limit to what you can do. Welcome back, Roberto.” Vanessa poured herself a glass. “Oh, we’re going to have so much fun.” My fist clenched beside me. I broke the last of what we had and now, Bianca was gone. The pain pierced into my chest as realization dawned on me. I’d never be with the woman I love. * * * BIANCA’S POV The man parked by an abandoned

  • MY EX ENEMY IS OBSESSED WITH ME   BUGGIN

    ROB’S POV I hesitated for a bit. I could grab Bianca and make a run for it. We could buy a remote island and just escape from this madness. But she loved her career, and she loved her life here. I couldn’t be selfish now. The waiter who led her here stood behind her, a gun raised to her head. So I kissed Vanessa and broke her heart instead. I felt every ounce of myself screaming against it, every instinct in my body telling me to pull back, to shove her away and take Bianca with me. But the gun pointed at her, the gun she couldn’t see, didn’t give me a choice. Her champagne glass shattered as it hit the ground and I broke the kiss. “Rob, are you fucking insane?” She asked. “He’s not. You think we spent a year together playing Uno?” Vanessa taunted her. Bianca’s eyes didn’t leave mine. “You told me you weren’t intimate with her.” “He lied,” Vanessa stepped in. “You’re interrupting please leave.” “Rob…” Bianca’s eyes made my heart twist. The waiter

  • MY EX ENEMY IS OBSESSED WITH ME   DYNAMITE

    BIANCA POVThe cell gate opening woke me up from my sleep. I rubbed my eyes to see clearly. Rob was there with the prison ward staff. I smiled when I saw him. Did he figure out a way to save me? Or did he take the deal to stay away from me?“Rob, you can’t tell how relieved I am to see you,” I said, walking into his embrace as he stepped into my cell. “I’m here to get you out,” he said. “Really? Did you accept the deal?” I asked. He hesitated. “N-o. I figured out a way to get you out myself.”He couldn’t look me in the eye. Something wasn’t right but I couldn’t tell what it was. Maybe it’s because he had to face his uncle again—his uncle who murdered his family. I touched his cheek. “I’m sorry you had to face him for me. If it’s any consolation, being away from you at this time was torture. I want to be with you, always. We don’t have to get a divorce.”He didn’t look too excited to hear that. Yeah, something was wrong with my Roberto. He kissed my forehead but it felt forced.
