All Chapters of Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

When he came back downstairs, he was met with the smell of something warm and inviting, and his stomach growled aggressively, reminding him that he hadn't eaten all day.He was starving.Without wasting time, he followed the smell to the dining room, where he found Zendaya setting the table where the plates of food were neatly arranged.“You did all this?” he asked, stepping closer.She looked up at him, brushing a strand of hair from her face, which left another streak of flour on her forehead. “Is it so shocking that I can.”Jayden chuckled, leaning against the doorway. “I didn’t say you couldn’t,” he raised his hand in surrender. “I'm surprised you did it for me.”“Yeah, well, it only took a few hours. ” she said, carefully placing the last dish on the table. “And I did it for you because you've cooked for me. Nothing more.”“Sure,” Jayden nodded as he knew she was trying to convince herself that what she did was just her repaying him back.He stepped closer, and he glanced at the

Zendaya’s lips parted, but no words came out. Her heart thundered in her chest, and she realized, with a clarity that both scared and thrilled her, that she didn’t want him to stop, that was why she had made the move in the first place.Taking her silence as permission, Jayden tilted his head and closed the final inch between them. His lips brushed against hers, soft and hesitant at first, as though he was giving her one last chance to pull away.He wasn't ready to do anything she didn't want to do, and so he was taking his time with her. Who knew the girl would kiss him out of nowhere? That single action of her made his body come alive, and he planned on stealing a kiss from her, only if she was willing.He waited for Zendaya to refuse if what she had done earlier was a mistake, but she didn't.Instead, her hands found their way to his chest, clutching his shirt as she kissed him once again.The hesitation melted away, replaced by a surge of passion that took them both by surprise.

Zendaya yawned as she made her way into the studio. The energy in the room was high as she saw assistants scurry with racks of clothing, stylists adjusting lights, and photographers setting up their equipment. Good grief, why were there always so many people at such shoots? She asked herself in irritation.As she made her way toward the dressing area, a familiar voice rang out."Well, if it isn’t Miss Always on time herself," Juliette teased, as she made her way towards her in a sleek emerald green dress that hugged her figure.‘Nice gown,’ Zendaya remarked in her head.Zendaya rolled her eyes but smiled. "And here I thought I’d get through the day without you inflating my ego. It’s not my fault you all take time seriously."Juliette laughed, pulling her into a quick hug. "Hurry up and get your hair and makeup done so we can get the shoot over and done with,” she urged."Alright, alright," Zendaya replied, as she made her way to the changing room.She and Juliette had been chosen to

Zendaya watched in silence as Jayden let Daniel drop to the floor, groaning and clutching his arm. The club's bouncers finally arrived and dragged the defeated man out, but Jayden didn't even glance their way. His focus was entirely on Zendaya. Unlike the past few days where he had looked at her with tenderness, the look in his eyes told her he was angry, very angry at her. "Outside. Now," he ordered, his tone cold and furious. Zendaya didn't dare argue and she nodded. The cool night air hit her skin as she followed Jayden out of the club. She barely had time to process what had just happened before Jayden turned around to look at her, his expression dark with anger. "What the hell were you thinking?" he demanded, his voice sharp enough to cut through steel. "Jayden, I-I. Let me explain,” she said. "Don't," he snapped, holding up a hand, and she swallowed what she was about to say. "Don't even try to explain. You lied to me." "I didn't lie," she countered weakly. Jayd

Jayden looked at the woman who was in front of him and he sighed. He was mad at her, very mad, but it was increasingly difficult to remain mad when she looked at him with those big blue eyes of hers. He would forgive her in the morning but for tonight, he needed to stand his ground so she wouldn’t repeat what had happened tonight again.As for those two sisters of his, he trusted they would be handled properly as well. Seeing that Jayden wasn’t relenting, she decided to try another way to get him to forgive her and so, she slowly approached him. The closer she got, the more her nerves threatened to overtake her, but she ignored them. This was something she had to do.Apologizing wasn’t going to cut it, and she wanted to see if he would be able to resist her charms.“What are you doing?” Jayden asked when she got to where he was.Without giving herself a chance to back out, Zendaya lifted herself onto her toes, her fingers gently brushing against his back as she leaned in, pressing
