Wrecked by my enemy Chapter Ninety-Three: Ten Days
The temporary command center was buried thirty feet below ground level in an unlisted subterranean vault beneath a decommissioned printing press in Long Island City. There were no windows, no floor-to-ceiling glass views of the Manhattan skyline, and no corporate assistants walking through the doors with polished silver trays.Only concrete walls, rows of encrypted server racks humming with low power, and long trestle tables covered in legal briefs, financial ledgers, and secure satellite communications gear.Damien Blackwood sat in a heavy leather chair at the head of the main table. His dark hair was disheveled, his jaw shadowed by three days of dark stubble. He had removed his tie, and his white dress shirt was unbuttoned at the throat, the sleeves pushed up to his elbows to reveal the corded, strain-marked muscle of his forearms.To his left sat Rafe Morale, his chief of security and long-range tactical director, whose face looked like it had been carved from raw granite after sev
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter Ninety-Two: Wei Chen's Documents
The rain had finally stopped over Manhattan, leaving behind a cold, biting mist that hung low over the glass towers of Midtown. Inside the marble-and-steel atrium of the Hawthorne Enterprises tower, the air was dead silent, heavy with the suffocating scent of polished limestone and ozone.The emergency shareholder proxy meeting had concluded twenty minutes ago, leaving the long, obsidian-topped conference table scattered with empty water glasses and abandoned tablet computers.Elias Hawthorne sat alone at the head of the table. He hadn't stripped off his jacket. He sat motionless, his long fingers resting flat on the cold stone, his dark eyes fixed on a thick, unbranded manila envelope resting directly in front of him.The envelope had been handed to him in total silence by Wei Chen—Hawthorne Enterprises’ chief risk officer and his father Victor’s most trusted internal auditor for the past fifteen years. Wei Chen hadn't said a word when he slid the package across the table. He had sim
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter Ninety-One: The Detonation
The floor-to-ceiling glass paneling of the executive boardroom on the eightieth floor offered a sprawling view of Manhattan, but tonight the city was buried beneath a thick, suffocating wall of dark fog and relentless, freezing rain. Inside, the atmosphere was even colder.The digital stock ticker embedded into the polished obsidian wall flashed in sharp, merciless crimson:BLACKWOOD HOLDINGS (BWH) — DOWN 18.2% AT CLOSE.VANGUARD-ROTHSCHILD CALLS FOR IMMEDIATE RESIGNATION OF CEO DAMIEN BLACKWOOD.Damien Blackwood sat at the head of the heavy mahogany boardroom table. He had stripped off his suit jacket hours ago; his white dress shirt was unbuttoned at the throat, sleeves rolled back to reveal the thick, corded muscles of his forearms. His broad shoulders were squared in a posture of raw, unyielding authority, but beneath the surface, his blood ran like liquid fire.By 4:00 PM, the initial twelve percent stock dip had mutated into an absolute bloodbath. Julian Vance’s institutional sy
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter Ninety: The Board Calls
The air in the subterranean corridor of the Red Hook facility felt like ice water in Damien Blackwood’s burning throat.His lungs seized as he dragged Elias out of the vault’s threshold, hauling his limp frame onto the cold concrete floor of the basement hallway. Behind them, the chemical fog billowed through the narrow crack of the breached steel door, heavy and sweet, before dissipating into the damp draught of the underground passage.Damien collapsed onto his knees, his broad chest heaving in violent, ragged gasps. He cupped the back of Elias’s neck, pulling him hard against his shoulder, his large hand trembling as he pressed his thumb against the pulse point beneath Elias’s jaw."Elias," Damien rasped, his voice a broken, desperate growl. "Breathe. Elias, open your eyes."A harsh, gasping cough tore from Elias’s throat. His dark eyes fluttered open, unfocused and bloodshot under the dim utility lighting of the hallway. He pulled in a frantic lungful of real air, his fingers inst
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter Eighty-Nine: The BW Archive
The rain fell over Red Hook in heavy, dark sheets, blurring the skeletal outlines of decayed brick warehouses and rusted shipping cranes along the East River.The SUV’s tires tore through standing water, coming to an abrupt halt in the flooded alleyway behind the old Blackwood Archive Building. The engine cut, leaving only the deafening rhythm of storm water hammering against the roof.Damien Blackwood stepped out into the freeze without a coat, his white dress shirt clinging to the broad expanse of his chest. His jaw was set like forged steel, his silver-gray eyes fixed on the rotting copper doors of the structure ahead.He didn't open the rear door. He yanked it wide.Lila Voss sat huddled on the leather seat, her body shivering from the violent collision of truth, trauma, and exhaustion. Her clothes were disheveled, her lower lip swollen where Damien had bruised it hours earlier."Out," Damien commanded, his voice a low, iron rasp that left no room for debate.Lila swallowed hard,
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter Eighty-Eight: Lila's Leak
The blue-tinted fluorescent glare of her Tribeca loft was the only light Lila Voss had allowed herself for thirty-six hours. She sat cross-legged on her sofa, her knees pulled tight against her chest, watching the financial tickers roll across the bottom of the television screen like a tide of crimson ink.BLACKWOOD HOLDINGS DOWN 12% IN PRE-MARKET TRADING.INTERNAL LIABILITIES LEAKED: AUDIT PENDING.A shuddering breath escaped her lips. Twenty-nine years old, and for the first time in nearly a decade, she had tried to reclaim a shred of power. She had spent her entire twenties drowning in her father’s debt—ever since Arthur Voss stole Marcus Blackwood’s high-frequency grid patent eight years ago. She had taken Damien’s cold, towering distance, carrying the crushing weight of her father’s legacy like a coat of lead. Every time Damien looked at her, she saw a judge who had already pronounced her guilty by association.So she had sent the file. It wasn't about money; she just wanted to b
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter 3: No Turning Back
Elias’s hands wouldn’t stop shaking.Not the small, polite tremor he could hide in board meetings. This was full body, teeth rattling shit that made the black silk blindfold feel like it was already cutting off his air. He’d paid the obscene membership fee, heart beating so hard he could taste copp
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter 2: The Predator’s Night Off
The Maybach cut through the downtown rain like it had a personal grudge against the city.“Tell me again,” Damien said, voice flat and low. “How close did Victor actually get?”Rafe didn’t look up from his phone, thumb flicking across the screen too fast, like the speed could change the numbers. “C
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter 1: The Perfect Son
"To my son," Victor Hawthorne said, raising his glass, "and the future that finally makes this family complete."The applause started immediately. Three hundred people in a room that cost more per square foot than most people earned in a year, all of them clapping for a toast that wasn't a toast at
Wrecked by my enemy Chapter 4: The Point of No Return
The stranger didn’t let Elias catch his breath.Elias lay there on the silk sheets, chest heaving, come cooling on his stomach, the blindfold was still tight against his eyes. His body felt wrecked already, legs shaky, ass throbbing from that first brutal round. But the stranger’s hands were back o
