I’ll make sure not to waste it.” “Don’t worry, I won’t forget what you told me before. We have a common enemy, and the enemy of an enemy is a friend.” “Good. You’d better remember what you just said.”

“Yeah, ‘family.’” “She is.” “That’s what I say about Scarlett, too.” “Just because you care about her more than a family member doesn’t mean that’s how it is with me and Elena.” I turned back to him to study his face.

"Yes, an enemy to your enemy is your friend, so we should be friends but since you feel awkward calling yourself a friend to a murderer, let's just call it, enemy Zoom, just as we have friends Zoom." Shirley smirked at the devilish smile pasted on the face of Camille Kyle, how sweet it could be, to be friends with your enemy's enemy, she didn't care about the reason behind the woman's hatred for her daughter, she couldn't imagine her mother hunting her like some outsider, but that is not her concerns, she is only concern about herself, that selfish little girl, that always want everyone to dance to her tone of music is still the Shirley sitting in front of Camille Kyle.

"Well, is that a generalization? What exactly is it referring to?" "Usually, when someone has an enemy, they try to one-up the enemy, better them at whatever they do. But when you do that, you end up being nothing more than a follower. There are lots of followers in the world; you're not going to be one of them." No, I need you to be strong, so I can go on with my life and not worry about you when the time comes because there's no escaping that for me. "Still don't get it?"

It all started at school, with a fight over something small—something that shouldn’t have mattered. But somehow, it changed everything. From that day on, we weren’t just classmates. We became enemies. After that, every interaction felt like a battlefield. We avoided each other when we could, but school had a way of trapping us in the same hallways, the same classrooms, the same group projects. Every glance, every word, felt like a challenge.

I hear purrs and growls agreeing to what I said. “And by taking what is ours we need to eliminate the enemy. Most of you my get think our only enemies are the fated mate of a girl and her child but no. From today, Kael is an enemy too” There is an uncomfortable silence and I understand because Kael was mightily feared. “So we eliminate Kael right?” They chorus a yes. Some half-heartedly.
