Jason: James my man, why the heck are you friends with Robert? He convince you and Alison to break up and the took Alison's virginity anyways.
James: Listen, my enemy's enemy is my friend. What I mean is, Alison and I were already having relationship issue before Robert became a regular at the bar where she then worked. Not only that but Robert and I had a common enemy, whose name is Carl, and we became friends before the whole affair with Alison simply Robert hates Carl because Carl stole his car. And I hate Carl because he borrowed money from me to pay rent on a stupid storage locker and never bothered paying me back.
Jason: so now the you and Robert want to gang up on Carl? and you don't care about Robert betraying you? wtf?
James: Don't know yet, but Robert and I became friends because we did have a common enemy, Carl. and I don't care about Robert's betrayal, because I took that risk when I became friends with him.

She was a friend of Nikki, who was a friend of an enemy. So they were both enemies the guy wanted as enemies.

An ally of an enemy is your enemy (not a frienemy or any other coined word from a coined language). Its simple, you know not to trust anyone who's an ally of an enemy.
He/she isn't your friend when he/she is with you. He/she is pretending to be your friend when he/she is with you. An enemy that doesn't want you to know they're your enemy is still an enemy.
