When My Family Became My Enemy Novels & Stories

I’d noticed it happening more often lately — small moments where the walls she’d built over years came down just slightly, just long enough for me to see what waited underneath. “I used to think this family would never accept me,” she said quietly. “Now I just think some of them won’t, and I’ve made peace with that.” “Richard included.” “Richard especially.” She smiled faintly. “But you did. Lily did. That’s enough.” “It should be more than enough.” “It is,” she said. “I just meant—” She paused, searching for words. “I didn’t expect to find enough here. I came looking for revenge, remember? I wasn’t exactly expecting a family.”

The guilt would eat him up alive everyday. "You keep your nose out of my business and I will make sure you and your wife live happily ever after." Yusuf said, snapping Liam out of his thought, "Do we have a deal?" And for a moment, inside his head, Liam was battling his another-self. "You ruined it for yourself already, father." Liam concluded and Yusuf father gave him a glance of surprise, "You taught me yourself, that the enemy to your family is like the enemy of your own. My wife is my family."

I told him that yes I belonged to the family’s of their enemies but we were not their enemies and it was their own misconception that was created by their minds. He told me that that’s why i was not telling them where my family was living and he told me that he had eyes all over the city instead of this he was not living in this city and came here to see his wife. His mother spoke up and told me that it was my father who killed his husband and she would never accept me as her daughter-in-law. During all this conversation Brent remained silent and he did not speak a word to support me and it looked like this was my only war against my enemies.

I shoved her off my body and she didn't even show any sort of disapproval, just smiled like any other hooker would and it infuriated me. I tried to stand up but I tripped and fell back onto the sofa, the drink was finally doing its bit, and I couldn't fight it any longer. I needed to go home. I had heard countless times about how enemies of a family could play their games once there was a loophole. And there I was, a perfect loophole. But I doubted that my family had any enemies. Maybe rivalries or business competitors but definitely not enemies – or did he? I learned everything from him, and he never kept anything from me as well, I had no reasons to doubt him at all – but I did.

“We had our son, Liam, before Dimitri and his wife had their own child. Having Liam made me crazier about Yulia. So that pushed me into trying to get her to give birth to more children, but it happened that she aborted all other pregnancies that came then, without informing me.” “Fortunately, my friend had his own child. While he built his family, I built mine, never knowing I was wasting my love on the enemy all along.” “Our clan started facing downtime, failure, and unforeseen attacks for years, but the event that hit me the hardest was losing my friend and his family during their vacation. Our enemy killed them, and guess who was their Intel?” I already knew who it was, but Michael still

I sighed before pushing her gently, wanting her to look me in the eye. “One thing that you need to understand, Sienna, is that I'm never going to blame you for whatever they are doing because I know that you do not, will not, and never have taken any part of it. I understand that this is not something that you like. I understand what you are trying to tell me. But sometimes you need to understand one thing. Our enemies come from family before they come from those who are strangers. Our enemies were once our friends, by the way. There is a reason why there are enemies right now and there is a reason why we stand against them. Family, friends, blood, water, bones, whatever it is that you can n

But one good thing came out of it; my heart was as hard as the Arctic ice. It had been three years and six months since the full-blown war erupted between the Vitale and the Romano family. The war between our two families started when the Romano family killed my mother and sister. Attacks, lives lost, fortunes burned... But it was that last betrayal that drove me insane. She chose them over me. She sold me out. And I never go soft on my enemies. I had stripped down the trust funds and empires of my enemies in this war. Some even lost their lives.

"Don't tell me you did this to take revenge for those times when I beat your brother?" "D-don't tell me..." My voice started stuttering as I realized I had slept with my enemy, who had come to take revenge on me, to play with my feelings and then make a joke in front of everyone. I shivered as the truth sank in. I thudded on the floor, my heart pounding. Quickly, I put on my clothes and ran out of the room. The face that used to give me hope, the face I used to admire without a second thought, had come to seek revenge. I still found it hard to believe.

Slyvia said. I took a deep breath. I tried my best not to get annoyed. Slyvia is probably upset about leaving this place. I should not stoop to her level and say hurtful words. "I don't know about you but I've never really considered you my enemy. The two of us do not get along and there are times that you made me really angry but I've never thought of you as an enemy. Please know this" I said. My Father had ended up dead and our entire family had been wiped out by one of his enemies. Even before he died the way he did, we were always constantly living in danger because of those enemies of his.

“You don’t think he’d really” “I think he’s done worse for less.” Alex sighed. “Alright. I’ll keep him busy.” The call ended, and I stared at the wall of names and faces in front of me known associates, former enemies, friends who’d turned to ghosts. Someone wanted my family to pay. But what they didn’t understand what they *never* seemed to understand was that I wasn’t just a man anymore. I was a father. And a father who had nothing left to lose was the most dangerous kind of enemy.
