My Enemy's Friend Novels & Stories

Silence followed Charles' remark as he kept quiet for a second to read their faces. Then he tapped his fist on the table twice and said, “We can't have someone who is connected to the enemy of Mr. Ford, working as the executive vice president of this company.” Everyone held in their words as they doubtfully stared back at him. Noticing the hesitation in their eyes, Charles stood up straight and said, “Who has heard the saying that the friend of my enemy is also my enemy?” “Shouldn't it be that the enemy of my enemy is my friend?” A lady from among the board members asked.

I needed to know more in other to devise a plan against my uncle and I’ll start with Zelda. As the saying goes: Keep your friend close and your enemies closer. And as Uncle Lucas himself would always say, The friend of my enemy is my enemy.

“Now let’s get to it. What did you want to tell me?” “Ever heard the saying ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend’? That’s the situation we’re currently in.” He cryptically says. “Can we not speak in riddles for once? Who is your enemy?” I ask. “I can’t tell you that. You have to figure it out on your own. I will say that they are a lot closer to you then you think.” He says. “Ugh! Fine then, what about the Fae? Where are they?” I ask exasperated.

And the friend who we now call the enemy. Slone. A new warlock.

she smiled and kissed his lips. “But you have to tell me about your enemies and how many are there?” she asked. “Anyone who’s not close to me is my enemy.” “Then it is vast,” she said in surprise. “Yeah. My enemy circle is big than my friend circle because you don’t know when a friend will turn enemy,” he said and leaned back on the tub. “What if an enemy wants to be a friend?” she asked. “Once he’s an enemy is always my enemy. I should be careful who I trust. My father lost his life because of that,” he said.

“And how did that turn out?” “Surprisingly, not bad," he responded and observed my taken-back expression, *You know the saying ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend’. Yet, I wouldn't even call us friends, I don't associate myself with such people. Acquaintances seem much preferred in such a case. A good source of information I needed." “Surely they wouldn't just throw out such information to a stranger.” I opposed. “It's funny how these things work, Hades was no stranger to them, I simply sent my regards.”

She was the only one who also knew how close I was with him. Or could it really be that stalker? "I don't believe you." I spat out; the muscles in my body were starting to get less tense after listening to her confession, which was quite believable. "I am not forcing you to do that." She shrugged. "You now have more enemies. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I really want to know who that person is, and let me see if I could also get to figure things out with that person." She added, her hands touching my hair while her eyes filled with pity. "Have a good night's rest."

The latter left them to their own privacy and she looked back at him. "Do I know you?" He asked as he shifted in his seat. Women were dangerous. The last time he communicated with a woman he didn't know but whose tone felt familiar, this was where he ended up. He definitely didn't want a similar outcome. She placed both of her hands on the surface of the table. "Not yet, but you should. I'll be your friend now." Her words made zero sense until he recalled a certain saying. The enemy of your enemy is your friend. Could this woman be an enemy of his enemy? He couldn't immediately figure out who of his enemies could have wronged such a beautiful woman.

THE TRAITOR Maya's eyes widened as she took in the figure standing before her. It was someone she had trusted, someone she had considered a friend. "Lena," Maya said, her voice shaking with anger and betrayal. "What are you doing here?" Lena smiled, a cold and calculating smile. "I've been working with Victor all along," she said. "I've been feeding him information, helping him stay one step ahead of you." Maya felt like she had been punched in the gut. She couldn't believe that Lena, her friend and ally, had been betraying her all along.

If I hadn't dared to run away from him, then I would be dead a long time ago. "Hey stranger" I smiled back, making my way towards my best friend, who wrapped his arms around me in a comforting hug. If anyone saw us, they would think that we are a couple, but he is the one who helped me find out the real me. He is the one who trained me in self-defense, and he is none other than alpha Marco of the crescent pack.
