Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 33: Stop putting yourself in danger
After she had knocked the goon unconscious, she paused when she heard footsteps approaching. Even though it was heavily raining, she still heard it as her senses were heightened all thanks to the dangerous situation.“Ma’am?” She heard someone say to her and when she turned she found a man standing in front of her and behind him were at least twenty more people.“Who are you?” Zendaya asked cautiously.“Lan,” the man answered, and Zendaya heaved a sigh of relief. Thank God she hadn’t left her bag back in the cave, as it was due to that they were able to get her exact location. “Get her some shoes!” Lan then ordered his men when he noticed that she wasn’t wearing shoes. Before his boss had come there, he had made it clear that their utmost priority was protecting Zendaya and that he would have his and his men’s head if there was so much as a scratch on her.“What took you so long?!” Zendaya hissed in annoyance and without waiting for the shoes to be brought, she turned and started r

“What the hell took you so long?” Jayden chided as he stared at the man who had raised his hand in surrender.“The rain didn’t make things easy for us, sir,” Lan responded, and Jayden cocked his gun to show that he wasn’t satisfied with the answer.“Jayden, give me the gun!” He heard Zendaya say to him, and he frowned as she was putting him in a difficult spot. He didn’t want to listen to her, but at the same time, she was his weak spot, and he didn’t want to disrespect her in front of his men.“You’re lucky, she’s here. You won’t be next time,” he growled as he handed the gun to Zendaya, who sighed satisfactorily. Without saying anything else to Lan, Jayden grabbed her arm and led her to where the leader was. His men had been smart enough not to kill him, and this made him smile satisfactorily.“Hello Dumong,” he greeted the man, whose eyes widened in horror over the fact that Jayden knew who he was.“You knew all along?” was all he said.“Of course I knew,” Jayden responded. “I’d

“Let’s get you changed out of those wet clothes,” Jayden stated as he took her up to her room.“You also need to get changed out of your clothes, now go before you catch a cold,” she told him when they reached her room. He had been putting her before himself and it was time he took care of his own needs.“Okay,” Jayden responded as he left her room.Zendaya didn’t waste any time in changing out of her wet clothes into very thick clothes, as she was close to freezing. As soon as she was done, she headed to Jayden’s room to see if he was taking care of himself.Just as she got to his room, the door opened, and she paused in her steps as she didn’t expect that. “Zendaya, why haven’t you dried your hair yet?” Jayden frowned in disapproval as he stared at her golden blond hair, something she had gotten from her father.“W-well,” Zendaya scratched her head. How was she supposed to explain that it was because she was worried about him?“Come in,” Jayden told her as he reached out and pulled

“How do you know my medication?” She asked him, refusing to get distracted by his words.“You told me about them, but you’re always too drunk to remember,” he responded as her grabbed her hand and placed it in it.Zendaya didn’t know if that was the truth but like he said she didn’t remember what she did whenever she was drunk and so there was no way for her to refute his claim.“Use it,” Jayden told her as he turned and went out of the room.When he stepped out, he immediately headed down to his study as he needed to make a call to his father and he didn’t want to be distracted.Closing the door, he brought out his phone to call Justin, and it took some time for Justin to answer as it was two in the morning.“Boy, it’s two in the morning, why are you calling me?” His father’s voice came on when he answered the call.“If you’re beside mom, leave, it’s important,” he told his father and he heard the shuffling of clothes indicating that his father was getting out of bed.“Hold on, let m

“There you go,” Zendaya said when she was done and this time, he looked like his normal self.“Good, now let’s go,” He stated as he threw her over his shoulder and went downstairs.“Was this really necessary?” Zendaya rolled her eyes, but she didn’t complain as she enjoyed the free ride to the car.When they got there, she noticed that there were more cars than the previous day which meant that they were going out with guards. As much as she didn’t like guards, she didn’t complain about their presence due to what had happened.“You didn't wear heels today,” Jayden remarked when they got into the car.Unlike the previous day, she was dressed casually in a pair of sneakers.“I think I'll be laying off heels for now,” she told him and he smiled.****“What's wrong, why have you been so grumpy?” Kiandra asked her husband.“It's Zendaya,” Lucas told her.“What happened to her?” “She's with Jayden Gerano?” He told his wife.“In the same mansion she's staying?” Kiandra probed and Lucas nod

“You were very cold back in there,” Zendaya stated, and Jayden squinted his eyes at her. So she had noticed and had still continued to ignore him.“I’m cold to everyone who I don’t know. You’re lucky I know you,” He asserted as he helped her adjust her coat, which had some speck of dust on it.“No, even by your own standard, you were colder than normal,” Zendaya deadpanned. She wasn’t oblivious to how Jayden treated people, but like she said, he was much colder to Anil. It was though he hated him.“I don’t like him, I guess, especially with the bullshit story he was feeding you with,” Jayden shrugged casually as he turned to enter the car. However, Zendaya stopped him from doing so, as she wasn’t done with the conversation.Pushing him to rest against the car, she stepped forward and poked his chest. “It wasn’t a bullshit story and Anil is nice,” she defended her classmate.“Just like the way you thought Matthew was nice and in love with you,” the words came out of Jayden’s mouth be

Jayden paced around Zendaya's room anxiously waiting for her to come out, but it had been hours, and she hadn't come out yet.It would be a lie if he said he wasn't nervous to go talk to her, as he knew she was in a really bad mood due to what he has said.He hadn't meant to insult her by mentioning Matthew, but he was trying to tell her that she should be careful of whom she trusted or opened up to. His words had just come out wrongly.As he thought about the matter, he found it rather strange that Anil showed up out of nowhere. He hardly believed in coincidences, and you didn't think it was a coincidence that the guy had showed up to the same coffee shop Zendaya had entered.Without wasting his time, he brought out his phone to call Lan. “I need you to find out everything you can about Anil Loran.”He said to his head of security after the latter had answered his call. He came distracted when he heard the sounds of footsteps approaching him. Upon turning, he found Myra coming to h

“I ruined your shirt,” Zendaya stated as she backed away. She didn’t have it in her to feel embarrassed about the fact that she had cried in front of Jayden. “It’s just a shirt,” he brushed off as he reached out and used his thumb to wipe the tears off her cheeks. Zendaya tensed due to what he did, and she felt her stomach tie in a knot once more while her cheeks turned red.Jayden stared at the woman in front of him. He remembered asking himself if what he felt towards her was a mistake or just lust. The answer was always the same.He didn't just want her, he needed her. He always felt his entire body come alive with just the simplest things she would do, and it had never been so with any other woman.Whenever he was with other women, he found himself unable to stand them except if it was purely for his pleasure, but with Zendaya, it was different, and he knew why.His bulge suddenly hardened just by looking at her, and he cursed his body for reacting like that in such a serious si

Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 138: The End
Two Months LaterThe Gerano mansion was buzzing with energy as the family and other well-wishers gathered to celebrate Jayden's birthday. The air was filled with laughter, music, and the clinking of glasses as the sun began to set. Jayden stood near the center of the room, talking to friends when he caught sight of Lucas approaching him.“Excuse me,” he said to the men he was talking to and he walked towards Lucas.“Enjoying the party?” Jayden asked with a smirk.Lucas shot him a look, which showed that he had been forced to be there probably by his wife and daughter. “I still don't like you. Don’t push it,” he warned.Jayden pouted as he pretended to be sad. “Don’t say that father-in-law,” he said and he had to stifle his laughter at the horrified expression Lucas always gave whenever he called him that. After he was discharged from the hospital, he and Lucas sat down to have a chat about Zendaya and his relationship.Lucas' words were simple, “Hurt her and you die.”He wondered w

Jayden's losing consciousness lingered in Zendaya's mind as Lucas led her out of the dark, suffocating room. Her heart pounded as she hoped Jayden was okay. “Get an ambulance here immediately!” Justin barked at an officer as they exited the building.Zendaya stumbled slightly, her legs weak from exhaustion and fear. Lucas caught her, steadying her with a reassuring hand on her shoulder.“You’re safe now,” Lucas said gently.“But Jayden…” Zendaya whispered, her eyes never leaving Justin’s retreating figure as he carried Jayden toward an ambulance that had just arrived.“He’ll be fine,” Lucas assured her. “You need to rest as well.”Paramedics rushed to Justin, quickly taking Jayden onto a stretcher.Blood seeped through his bandages, and Zendaya’s stomach churned at the sight. She tried to follow, but Lucas held her back.“You need to get checked too,” Lucas insisted, gesturing to another paramedic who was approaching her.“No,” Zendaya protested, shaking her head. “I need to go wit

The deafening sound of the gunshot echoed through the room, and Zendaya braced herself for the end. But to her surprise, she felt no pain. Slowly, she opened her eyes, her heart pounding in her chest.Anil stood frozen, his eyes wide with shock. And her mouth fell open when she saw that he had been shot in the shoulder. Regardless, he proceeded to shoot her once again and another shoot to his legs brought him down on his knees."Step away from her!" a familiar voice roared with anger as he stepped into the room.It was Jayden. He looked disheveled, and her heart bled when she saw his physical condition. “Jayden?” Zendaya called her voice a mix of relief and disbelief.Anil snarled, raising his gun to fire, but Jayden didn’t hesitate. Another shot rang out, and this time, it was to his palm.Anil groaned in the weapon slipping from his grasp and Jayden kicked it away as he then pounced on Anil.“Jayden, he'll die,” Zendaya stated when Anil had turned into a bleeding mess.Her words
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 135: Goodbye, Zendaya
Zendaya’s head throbbed as she slowly opened her eyes. She saw she was in a dark room and a frown appeared on her face. Her body ached as she tried to move, only to find herself bound to a chair. Her wrists were tied tightly behind her back, the coarse rope digging into her skin as she moved. Panic immediately set in as she struggled, her breaths quick and shallow.The faint creak of a door opening sent chills down her spine as she turned in the direction of where the sound had come from. “Who’s there?” she demanded, her voice hoarse. “What do you want?”The figure didn’t respond immediately, stepping closer until the overhead light flickered on. The sudden brightness made her wince, but when her eyes adjusted, her blood ran cold as she saw who was in front of her.“Anil?” she whispered in disbelief.He stood before her, a cruel smile on his face that sent shivers down her spine. He looked different his usually composed demeanor replaced with something sinister and there was a

The fluorescent lights of the hospital hallway greeter Jasmine and Justin rushed toward the ER, their steps hurried and frantic. The receptionist’s voice on the phone had been calm but grave when she’d informed them of Jayden’s accident. Jasmine’s heart hadn’t stopped pounding since as her mind conjured every worst-case scenario about Jayden and how he was doing. Justin walked beside her, his face pale and tight with worry.“What do they mean someone hit him and then disappeared?” Jasmine muttered, her voice trembling. “Who does that? Who leaves someone on the road like that?”Justin placed a hand on her back, and he rubbed it gently. Though his expression was grim. “We’ll find out. Let’s focus on Jayden first.”The moment they reached the nurse’s station, a staff member gestured them toward a private room. “He’s stable,” the nurse reassured them quickly, seeing the panic etched on their faces, and it made them calm down a bit. “The doctors did a thorough examination, and his in
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 133: It's a trap
Jayden drove aimlessly through the city, the steady hum of the car engine doing little to drown out the storm raging in his mind. As he remembered his father’s revelation, he felt suffocated. His hands clenched the steering wheel with such intensity that his knuckles turned white, and the faint creak of the leather beneath his grip was the only sound competing with his labored breathing.Jasmine isn’t my mother.The thought repeated itself over and over, echoing in his mind. He couldn’t believe it. She was the woman who had raised him, loved him, been there for him through every high and low. She wasn’t his real mother.Every memory of her felt tainted now, overshadowed by the truth. The fact that they had hid it from him for all of his life and probably wouldn’t have told him had the article not come out was a slap to his face.The betrayal hit him in waves, each one stronger than the last. Why hadn’t they told him? Why had they waited until the news forced their hand? He thoug
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 132: The truth revealed
Jayden drove home in a haze, his hands gripping the steering wheel, and he imagined his being someone's neck. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the steering wheel until his knuckles turned white. The article, the headline that Jasmine wasn’t his real mother, echoed in his mind. His mind struggled to make sense of it, but something deep inside him was beginning to put two and two together, and something began to shift. ‘You’re being unreasonable,’ he muttered to him as he shut those thoughts out of his head. The drive home felt longer than it should have been, and when he finally arrived at the mansion, the weight of it all pressed heavily on his chest. As he entered the house, a strange sense of heaviness hit him. It was more than just the eerie quiet that settled over everything; there was something palpable in the air. “Your parents are in their room, sir.” The helper who opened the door informed him. Jayden nodded, his heart pounding harder as he made his way up
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 131: The article
Zendaya stirred awake, the first rays of sunlight peeking through the curtains. The room was warm, and the faint smell of Jayden lingered in the air, a mix of his cologne and something undeniably him. Opening her eyes, she blinked a few times before turning her head to see Jayden sleeping beside her, his face relaxed and peaceful.Her lips curled into a soft smile as she took in the sight of him. He was lying on his stomach, the sheets were around his waist, leaving his broad back and a glimpse of his toned arms on display to her.His dark hair was messy, sticking up in different directions from her fingers running through it last night.Last night. Her cheeks warmed at the memory.Last night, he’d truly proven he was a beast, just as he’d promised. The passion, the fire, the way he’d driven her to the edge over and over, it left her breathless just thinking about it and the heat rushed to her legs even though he was sore. A smile appeared on her face as she brushed her fingers o
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 130: Unexpected twist
The room was dimly lit, the only source of illumination being the faint glow from a laptop screen on a cluttered desk. .Papers and files were scattered, some bearing Jayden’s name in bold letters. The two men stood on opposite sides of the room, their faces partially hidden.The taller man paced, his hands shoved deep into his pockets as his mind raced. He finally stopped, turning to face his boss, who was seated behind the desk.“We’ve got something big,” the taller man said, his voice laced with excitement and malice. “Something that’ll change everything, boss.”The boss didn’t respond immediately. He leaned back in his chair, his sharp eyes narrowing as he studied the man before him. “What is it?” he asked, his tone calm but deadly.The taller man hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and placing a file on the desk. “It’s about Jayden,” he said, tapping the file with a finger. “Something that has been hidden.”The boss arched a brow, his interest piqued. He opened the
