Enemies of convenience
Reversal trope of the lovers of convenience or fake-dating, where the leads are publicly hostile while secretly being allied/friends/lovers (includes non-romance too because the trope is rare). This does not include tropes where one lead is purposely misleading and withholding information from the other to achieve this; it must be a mutual agreement.
