ALICE'S POV

It wasn't easy to see the abandonment in Ric's eyes. I knew the situation was more serious than Lucas tried to convey. I knew my brother well enough to know that look was hopeless, but I couldn't let Andrew see that his sister was between life and death. Over the past few weeks we've been involved in a way I didn't believe possible. Andrew was my friend since childhood. Together with Manu and Ricardo we lived the happiest moments that any child could wish for. And when my brother left for Canada, they were the ones who held back the homesickness I felt.

I had never felt anything for Andrew until weeks ago when he kissed me and told me he loved me. I thought he was an incorrigible womanizer. Since he started his career as a football player, he has only seen him surrounded by women on social media. He always joked with Manu, telling her to get ready, because she would get the news that she would be an aunt

  • A Christmas Miracle    Chapter 33

    MANUELA'S POVI couldn't put my happiness into words when I heard my little prince cry. Tall and strong, showing that he came to transform our lives. I was 35 weeks and still had some time to go before her birth, but the proximity of Alice's delivery had shaken me a lot.Ricardo and I had decided to stay at the mansion for a while, especially after the babies were born, so that their father could enjoy the first few months of his grandchildren's lives. He gave off pheromones whenever he entered the room and I was insatiable. I think the daily sex, plus the anticipation of Alice's delivery, caused me to have strong contractions the day before the babies were born. Ricardo was very worried and called Dr. Maria, who advised me to do absolute rest.—We should have taken it more slowly, love. How are you feeling? he asked all worried.—Now the pain is gone, but I'm nervous. Will he be okay? I asked in anguish

  • A Christmas Miracle    Chapter 32

    RICARDO'S POVI didn't want to tell Manu that her brother was missing, but she had created conspiracy theories in her head, and with good reason. I was lying to her. So I had to tell the truth. His body shrank when he said his brother was missing. I hugged her tightly and told her everything would be fine, but the truth is that the lack of news made me more and more distressed. Anything I thought to say was gone when Manu began to cry softly, clinging to my body. How it pained me to see her so fragile. I ran my hands through her hair and asked her not to be so nervous. Our son needed her to be strong. Then the cell phone rang and I picked it up, praying it wasn't the worst.—Speak up, Lucas!—We found him. He's in a hospital far from the Center. They found him in a bush and took him to this hospital. He was shot in the chest and underwent surgery. I'm already finding out about the case and I

  • A Christmas Miracle    Chapter 31

    MANUELA'S POVWhen I woke up, he was there, beside me, in that cramped hospital bed. I imagined he would wake up all sore, I was, but I was afraid to move and miss that beautiful scene. Her breathing was calm and her eyes looked so peaceful, very different from the night before. During our makeout I saw the look of desire with which Ric watched me, like an animal in heat, about to take me with his cock. And how I wished he'd thrust himself into me willingly, but he was cautious and only gave me pleasure. I would try to compensate him very well in the future, because I knew how much he had been controlling himself all those days.I watched his morning erection, eager to touch him. The sensations of his hand and mouth touching my body were still ingrained in my skin. He took a stronger breath and woke up. He looked at me and kissed me.― Good morning, princess! How are you feeling?― Very good.—I'm glad

  • A Christmas Miracle    Chapter 30

    ALICE'S POV—The last time I spoke to Andrew, he was at the hotel. I believe it should arrive in a few hours. He said he was just going to take a shower and we were going straight to the hospital.—I sent the audio to my brother. Manu was reluctant to see Andrew. I was also in agony, I couldn't stop still. A strange anxiety inside me. Sometimes I thought that Manu and I were connected, like soulmates. Whenever she was nervous I felt bad too. During the coma I had horrible nightmares. Andrew said that I called her all the time, and cried. I gave him a lot of work in the first few months. There were nights when he didn't sleep, thinking I was in some pain. At the beginning of the pregnancy I was terrified of a miscarriage. I remembered what had happened to my brother and I begged the heavens that I wouldn't go through this.At almost six months I was a ball, sexy, but a ball. Every move was

  • A Christmas Miracle    Chapter 29

    ALICE'S POVWhen I told Andrew that his sister had regained her memory, he freaked out. She started dancing and twirling around the room and then ran to tell her father the news. I felt a weight lift off my shoulders, because since Manu woke up, Andrew lived in the corners, head down, feeling rejected. An absolute state of neediness that made me very upset. But the hardest part was seeing him cry like a child on his first visit to Manu. He thought she would never recover.― Fortunately. Now I'll be able to travel with peace of mind knowing that she will recover.— He thrilled, throwing himself on the bed and kissing my belly.I was almost six months old and I felt my back hurt every other day. Not to mention leg cramps. I was huge and I felt wonderful. I thought my belly was beautiful and showed it off in pictures all the time. It was such a nice step. I never thought I would love being pregnant.When we found

  • A Christmas Miracle    Chapter 28

    RICARDO'S POV Surfing was the only thing that could restore my strength. After five days of total isolation, I already felt like a different person, although my blood pressure continued to change. On the first day in Saquarema I only thought about Manu. I missed our physical therapy sessions so much, the only time I could touch her and smell her. It was a surreal longing that invaded every pore of my body and burned me inside. The next day I decided to throw myself into the sea, ignoring the cold and the rain. I needed to connect with nature to feel alive again. And that's what made me understand that I couldn't change fate. Manu might never remember me and she might never love me again, but I had to move on for my son. There was nothing I could do but be close to them, even as a friend. Maybe I would never love anyone again and go back to that life of superficial relationships. Maybe I had to settle for seeing my wife with an
