Rivals Novelas e Histórias

I hated how part of me didn’t want this moment to end. Then his phone shattered the silence with a harsh digital chirp. Caleb closed his eyes, exhaling sharply. He stepped back, the sudden absence of his heat hitting me like a plunge into freezing water. He checked the screen, jaw tightening until the bone stood out in sharp relief. “Rivals,” he said, voice iced over once more. “Kane Harlow and the Wolves. They’re already talking. Calling our team a joke. Saying they’ll target the girl until we fold.”

Mira’s eyes met mine, and something cold slid down my spine at the look in them. “A rival,” she said quietly. I squinted, unsure of her words. How could I have a rival when I already have my mates drooling over me?

She didn’t even give a damn about the fact that my men were behind me. If anything, I know she’d go for my head given the chance. It was amusing. And also annoying as hell. Amara had been my rival for as long as I could remember. It dated as far back as when we were kids. It wasn’t just an individual rivalry though. This was a family rivalry. The Vitales and the DeLaurentis’ had been at each other’s necks for decades. Our rivalry was something born as a result of it. Even now that I’d taken then position of Don, it didn’t mean things would end just yet. I hated her and she hated me just at much. I hated her father Viktor and the rest of her brothers. Nothing could dissolve or change that. Th

Whispers spread across the hall, some marveling at his brilliance, others speculating about his unmatched streak. "That's Adam Kavanaugh for you," someone murmured from one of the tables. "It’s no surprise," another replied. "He's dominated the field for years. Three consecutive awards,he's practically unstoppable." The comparisons began almost immediately. The ongoing rivalry between Adam and Mateo Montero wasn’t new. For years, the two had clashed on the business front, their companies vying for the same deals and recognition. While Mateo was respected for his resilience and innovation, Adam always managed to outmaneuver him. Whether it was his sharp instincts, impeccable strategy, or shee

I could feel her hand shaking against mine as she gripped to steady her hold. “The rivalry…” She continued when she didn't get any response from me. Then she shrugged. “What is it for? Money? Land? Business? More money?” She rapped without holding her breath. “Just name it!” Her tone was getting quite dramatic. Still silent, I leaned back in my seat, one leg crossed over the other, and I tapped on the table surface, skillfully, as if stuck on a game of chess. “The Contis don't beef with little humans…”

“I want you to interview Ilay von Oberhaus.” I wanted to slap Kevin right there, but couldn’t because he would freaking fire me. First Jin, now Ilay. He was another titan in the tech world. The founder of Valkyrie Industries. Baek Jin’s most famous, most ruthless rival. Their competition wasn’t business; it was a personal, global cold war fought with patents and hostile takeovers. I stared at Kevin, my mouth agape. “You cannot be serious.” “Deadly serious,” he said, his grin widening. “You already interviewed one of them; you may have an idea of which angle to use this time. I don’t want anything regarding their business. I want something personal.”

My brothers are not even considered as my rivals, so who the hell is he talking about? “I have no rivals! No one dares to challenge my authority in this city, no one!” I told him furiously, giving him a warning look. He checked at my words, raising his hand in mock surrender, laughing at me. “Yes, Raphael Hawkins, you have rivals. The Myers, they are your rivals. They used to be the most important people in this city, and they were your biggest rivals before they left the city many years ago, twenty-four years ago, you be precise. Do

It was never easy to unite with a rival pack, especially when so much bad blood lay between us. An elderly warrior, his golden hair streaked with mud from a recent training session, raised his hand. "But Alpha, can we trust the other pack? They've been our enemies for generations. How can we be sure they won't betray us?" The Alpha nodded, acknowledging the concern. "I understand your fears, but we must look beyond the past if we are to secure our future. We have received assurances from their Alpha, and we have agreed upon a way to solidify our alliance."

I stood there, grappling with a sense of injustice, the bitter taste of a victory stolen lingering on my tongue. Ralph approached, reveling in his perceived triumph. "Better luck next time, Gonzalo. Maybe you should pay more attention to the details." I shot him a scathing glare, the rivalry between us intensifying. The competition had taken a darker turn, a game of manipulation and unforeseen challenges.
