Chapter 21
Sienna
I crumpled to the floor with Bella's arms around me when I heard the news broadcast that Cole was dead. I could hear my family talking around me, but I couldn't make myself understand. Cole's car had been found. Someone had run him off the road, and the fuel tank had ignited, and there was no way anyone inside had survived. They were saying he was dead. Cole's dead. No, that couldn't be true. I had just seen him last night, and we were meeting tonight. I was going to the cabin tonight to see him.
"Sienna, look at me." Bella snapped as she held my face in her hands, and I realized that this must not have been the first time she tried to get my attention.
I focused on her tear-streaked face as she asked me if she could help me up. "Who" I mumbled as she shook her head and held me close. I was dimly aware of my three siblings

Cole"How was she?" I asked Jace as soon as he walked back through the door to the cabin.Jace motioned for me to move out of the doorway and let him in. I sighed as I watched him slowly peel his jacket off and hang it up before sitting on the couch. I knew he was purposefully taking his time to annoy me, knowing I was as wound as a coiled spring. "She's fine now that she knows you're alive. She thinks Luca and Matteo may be behind this, and she tried to batter me with a baseball bat. I told her that you would phone her. I think she will be much better when she hears your voice. I also told her that you wouldn't be able to see her for a while." he told me as he threw his phone at me. He stood from the couch, placing his hand on my shoulder. "I'll give you some privacy.” I waited until Jace had left the room and closed the door before I phoned Sienna. I was desperate to hear her voice, but truth be told, I was scared to listen to the grief and suffering that she had been through, thin
Sleeping with the enemy Chapter 23
SiennaI felt emotionally exhausted, like I could sleep for a month, and it still wouldn't be enough. On the other hand, my brain wouldn't stop running in circles. Bella and I had done nothing but lay in her bed in silence since Jace had left after deciding we would go back to my house tonight. Jace hadn't been gone long when we heard banging at the front door. We both jumped from the bed, and like with Jace, I grabbed the baseball bat, and Bella grabbed her phone, both of us freezing when the front door opened and someone started walking up the stairs."How easy is your house to break into?" I hissed to Bella."I don't know; no one has broken in before tonight," she hissed back to me."Sienna, Bella, it's Ryder. Can I come in?"We both breathed a sigh of relief as Bella opened the bedroom door. "What the fuck are you doing? I have a doorbell,""I didn't want to scare you," he replied with a shrug."Then don't break into someone's house, you moron. You ring the doorbell and wait to be

ColeI was still climbing the walls when Jace returned and filled me in on his meeting with Luca and Matteo, and even more so when he told me that Sienna had been followed by someone other than Ryder. I felt sick when he told me that Bella had brazenly walked up to the guy with a coffee and told him she knew he was following them. Anything could have happened to her. She then went up to Ryder and asked him if he had even noticed the other guy, which he assured me he did.Luca told Jace that he and Matteo were sure they had taken care of the guys behind the hit on Sienna. Perhaps the hit wasn't just about getting revenge on them. Still, as the months passed and nothing else had happened, he put it to the back of his mind but now, with what happened to me or at least what they think happened to me, Luca agreed to look into it again for Sienna's sake more than anything as he knew she was hurting. He also wanted to make sure she was out of danger. Still, Luca always thought our presence a

SiennaThey say that when you're in a life or death situation, your life flashes before your eyes. I always thought that would be nice, you know, seeing your friends and family before you died, something nice to hold onto. Still, now that I was frozen on the pavement as a black car sped past so close, I could feel the paint on my fingertips before the passenger started shooting at a stationery car about a foot away from me. When the other vehicle started shooting back, I couldn't get my legs to move, no matter how hard I tried. I didn't see any flashes of my life; I saw everything happening around me in slow motion. I could hear guns going off and people shouting and cursing. I could even hear the car door opening behind me. How I managed to hear all that over the sound of my heart hammering and the blood rushing to my ears, I'll never know.I heard someone shout, "Get fuc

ColeI walked away from her and slammed the cabin door leaning against it. What the fuck was wrong with me. Why was I letting this girl get under my skin? I shouldn't have kissed her. That was a mistake. Now all I wanted to do was drag her back inside and take her to my bed. I didn't move away from the door until I heard her car drive away. I flopped down on the couch with the smell of Sienna's perfume all around me. My phone rang, and I glanced at it and saw it was my brother."Hey, Jace," I answered."Is she gone?" he asked as a way of a greeting."Who""Don't play dumb, Cole. You leapt out of the car to save that girl, then when I phoned last night, you had somehow made it to your

SiennaI managed to make my way through the school day without thinking of Cole at all. Ok, that's a lie, but I managed to make it through school on only a few hours of sleep. I sat with my friends at lunch and tried to concentrate on what they said, but I couldn't. All I could think of was Cole and the kiss he gave me before I left. Get a grip,Sienna. You won't see him again. I sighed and tried harder to pay attention to my friends the only one that was even looking at me was Bella, and I smiled to let her know I was ok. The rest of the day passed quickly, and before I knew it, I was driving Bella home, telling her I would phone her later before I headed home.I pulled up to the iron gates outside my house, punch

Cole"What should we do now." She asked, biting her lip.I sat down my beer, and in two strides, I was in front of her. "I have a few ideas," I told her before cupping her face and tilting her mouth up to meet mine. The taste of peppercorn from the sauce she had with her steak lingers on her lips, and when I deepen this kiss, she moans in my mouth. As our tongues dance, my cock hardens, ready to finally claim her. Her arms wind around my neck, pulling me closer. I slowly pull away, and her eyes open, and I can see the desire in her eyes."You should tell me to stop," I tell her, taking a deep breath as I know if she doesn't say the words, I won't stop until she's mine."And what if I don't want you to stop." She tells me as she pulls my head back down to her claiming my lips.
Sleeping with the enemy Chapter 5
SiennaMy head was still spinning, going over everything that happened last night. It was the perfect night, and I still couldn't believe that it had happened. I thought I wouldn't see him again after that first night when he kissed me goodbye, yet he went to all the trouble to find me and made me a fantastic dinner. When I opened the door and saw his brother Jace standing there, I didn't know what to do, so I just stood like an idiot while he looked me up and down like a rack of lamb. I felt relieved when Cole rushed to my side, and he assured me that Jace was annoyed with him and not with me, but I still felt unsure as something about the whole situation was unsettling. I pulled into the school parking lot and spotted my friends near the front door. As I made my way towards them, Bella spotted me and rushed over."Where were you last night?" She asked with a huge grin.
