Camila Cabello's Point Of ViewWith delicateness I slid the piece of cotton on my face, removing all and any trace of makeup that I had used that night. Christopher, on his turn, was under a hot shower, making the steam fog up the mirror in front of me. I huffed angrily, but continued with my work. I felt a chill run through my entire body when a puff of cold air came into contact with me, I was wearing only a silky white shirt, which reached my thighs.-Why didn't you tell me?- I asked as I wiped around my eyes.I heard the noise of the shower stop, and through the mirror I could see my husband slide his hands through his hair, removing the excess water.-What? - his raspy voice tone echoed through the shower box's walls.-About the theft, Christopher.He was silent for a few instants, until he opened the shower box's door.-I didn't want to worry you. Can you hand me a towel?I grabbed one of the towels that were on the counter, handing it to him. I am your wife, you have to share t
Lauren Jauregui's Point of View-These balance sheets are too vague. Allyson grumbled from the backseat of my car. The smaller one analyzed the documents cautiously as I drove to Collins Enterprise. Today we would initiate the investigations in the case, and none other than Allyson Brooke to give a good overhaul of Christopher's Company's system. We would look for any type of suspicious transaction to begin with.-Yes, I believe we have to ask for authorization for you to get into their system.-I can do that easily, Lauren.-Yes, I believe that.-Where is Vero?-She's finishing receiving Agent Pinheiro's training. I heard that she will leave this week.Allyson nodded quickly.-She will. She was transferred to another unit. But I don't know if it's really police training that Vero is receiving from her.I let out an amused laugh, looking at the smaller one through the rearview mirror.-You know what I mean, Lauren. -I know! But I won't get into that. -Much less me! - the shorter one
We were accompanied by Camila and one of the technicians to the central control room. There Allyson and I had access to the system's settings, under the supervision of the technician that showed us everything thoroughly.-This program is one of the best in the Country, it scares me that it doesn't show the destination of the money. I already worked with it before, and it always has all the information. It doesn't even look like it was breached. - Ally said-We have the breach of the day when the amount disappeared. - the technician spoke serenely.-Yes, only that one. The person who stole it must be too good with this, because she simply deleted the destination of the money. Obviously leaving the huge hole. But you need to know the system to know how to delete such information.-Brooke, that's not something difficult for these sons of b...I quickly closed my mouth as soon as I realized what I was saying.-There's no sign? - Camila asked.-So far no. But I'll examine the complete tran
Camila Cabello's Point Of ViewThrough the tinted glass wall of the building, I had the view of the central parking lot of Collins Enterprise. Within minutes I saw Agent Jauregui's body in sight, next to Agent Brooke. My eyes couldn't distance themselves from that woman, as if they needed to analyze every one of her movements. Lauren was becoming a dangerous and exciting game. And I confess that those were my favorites.-Agent Jauregui... -I touched the glass with the tip of my finger - You shouldn't have shown up.Lauren unlocked her car, letting the blonde beside her enter it. The brunette took off her leather jacket, throwing it inside the car, to then tie her dark hair in a sloppy bun. The bad girl pose only made her more attractive.-Camila, you are crazy. - I said to myself, before feeling my phone vibrate.I grabbed it from the table, it was vibrating restlessly:-Hello?-Camila? I'm calling so you don't forget our lunch. I'm already on my way.-Alright, I'll arrive in twenty m
Lauren Jauregui's Point Of ViewI poured another good amount of hot coffee in my cup. I would need it if I wanted to keep myself focused enough on my reasoning. On the desk was all the documentation gathered by Allyson and me. After a few hours in the technical information center, Ally was still trying to decipher the system's codification, in the vague attempt to get any information that would lead us to a suspect.-The system manager got in touch with you?-Yes, he said he'd come to the precinct tomorrow to give testimony. But advanced that according to them, only one person can have the password that has full access to the system.-But they as owners, have access to anything in the system. -I said taking another sip of coffee.-I don't believe they would shoot themselves in the foot. If the system is proved faulty, they would have to pay a millionaire fine to the owner of the company. – Ally spoke as she turned her chair towards me.-Fine?-Yes, according to the contract made, if
After almost two hours, we were entering Collins Enterprise's parking lot. This time I wouldn't have a specific visit with Christopher, and much less with his wife, Camila. We would be now gathering information of the employees, all very bureaucratic. Vero and I talked to some employees of the financial sector, and according to them, nothing like that had ever happened. All the high values were properly transferred with Christopher's authorization, and his microchip. Sometimes used by John, with the owner supervision, of course. John used the microchip frequently? -I asked the young man from the financial sector.-Yes, Mr. Collins has a lot of trust in him.-How long has he been working here? - Veronica asked.-I work here for six years. When I got in, he was already beside Mr. Collins. -the young man said calmly, as he sipped from his small cup of coffee -Ma'am, I don't think he did anything. -I'm not blaming him, I just need to get all the possible information. Here everyone can b
Camila Cabello's Point Of View-I still haven't forgiven you for having left like that, Hansen, - I said before getting into my car. Dinah casted me an impatient look from the other side of the vehicle. But soon took care of opening the black Ferrari door, accommodating herself in the car.-I already told you that my aunt wasn't feeling well, and asked me to take her to the doctor.-You could've asked for my help.-It was a minor family situation, don't worry.I casted her a suspicious look, and she just put on her sunglasses and smiled.-New car? - she changed the subject quickly.-Yes, it arrived earlier today.Dinah analyzed the vehicle and raised her eyebrows.-Pretty showy.-You think? I chose black to disguise more.-It's a convertible Ferrari, Camila.I put on my face my delicate Ray-Ban, before starting my car, making the engine roar sound loud.-Let's say I like speed.-As long as you don't kill me, everything is great.-You haven't given me reasons for that, Jane. - I said
Lauren Jauregui's Point Of View-Heitor Martinez, born and raised in Washington, but with current and permanent residence in New York. Former partner of Collins Enterprise, no criminal record. - I said as I threw a picture of Heitor on my desk for Iglesias to see.-His record looks pretty clean. - Vero spoke as she analyzed the photo of the man.-Yes. for now.-Do you think he has any involvement in the theft?-Something tells me he does, but I'll ascertain it. I need more accurate information.-You need to have someone close to Christopher to get it.-Yes, I do.For who was used to the simple thefts in the small town, Collins' case was a catastrophe, but I would unravel it. I heard three light knocks on the door, before agent Barton walked in the office.-Agent Jauregui?-Yes?-I'm here with the recruited officer from the information center. I frowned towards him who remained serious. I spoke to Brandon earlier today and he said there was no officer available.-Yes, ma'am. But we re
Camila Collins' Point Of ViewI felt Lauren's arms Wrapping me carefully, as the rain fell over our heads. The car with the men had just gotten lost amid the darkness of that deserted field. I felt my body being lifted, causing me to sit."Camila? Look at me." I opened mny eyes and stared into that pair of so worried green eyes.Even with the darkness that surrounded us, I stared at her partially illuminated face by the lit headlights of her car, seeing the raindrops running down her white skin. Even knowing that none of that was real, and that I was never in danger, I felt incredibly safe in the arms of that woman, as if she could surface me from that quagmire of lies and rancor."Everything is okay, they are gone.""I'm sorry." I let out almost automatically, without realizing.Lauren frowned, joining her eyebrows in the center of her forehead. She stared at me with a confused expression, but soon took care of shaking her head. I felt my breath falter in pure fear."For what, Camila
Christopher shouted loud and clear, attracting the attention of everyone who was in that place. I felt my whole body boil, as if the hatred accumulated with all the other bad feelings that I suffered in the last hours were joining."I am to blame? You are the one to blame, you moron! I am responsible for covering your wife's safety and not yours! She would be safe if you were with your damn security guards, because I'd have taken her out of that damn car, and left you in the hands of those thugs!"He stared at me astonished at the audacity in which I regarded him. I didn't care about his economic level, or even his power over Brandon. I wouldn't let him throw on me the blame for something that wasn't in my hands to fix, not alone."I'm sure those guys wanted you! And not her! But now they saw a weak spot, and theyll abuse it!""You don't know anything! You're just a shitty little cop!" I balled my hands into fists, trying to control the urge I had to punch him in that instant."You sh
Lauren Jauregui's Point Of ViewI pounded hard on the door a few more times trying to get the men's attention on the other side, but none appeared. I just needed some new about Camila, her absence in the room where Christopher and I were made me more and more apprehensive. I felt my wrists aching due to the ropes that bounded them, but surely, I was way better than Christopher. The men even left me on an old mattress, and the ropes only wrapped my hands, but with the businessman it was totally different. He was thrown on the ground, with his body completely bound."Stop with that infernal noise. You'll end up irritating them!" The man muttered grumpily. "She should be fine!""You don't know anything! What kind of husband are you?" "The kind who's smart and doesn't want any of us to die due to insistence and rebellion.""She could be suffering in another room!"We heard noises coming from the door, and soon I quickly backed away when the men entered with masks on their faces. They wer
Camila Collins' Point Of ViewThe sound of our high heels echoed through the empty corridors of that warehouse. I wallked ahead, having Normani and Dinah following right behind. One of the men accompanied us to provide the services requested by us. I stared at both women as soon as we stopped before a thick metal door; they nodded briefly, and then I looked at the man."You can open it." I ordered."Yes, ma'am."The man approached the door, grabbing the ring of keys from his pocket, and quickly took care of unlocking the door, which creaked as it was being pushed slowly by me."You can go for a walk. We'll call you if we need." I murmured at the marn who alternated his gaze before the three women in front of him."As you wish." He said before leaving. Dinah entered the dark room, followed by Normani and then by me. The blonde was incredibly beautiful for that situation, as if for my best friend that plan was also an act to be celebrated and reveled in the best possible way. She gestu
Normani opened the way for me to enter the system freely and withdraw what I wanted. Dinah just waited for the amount, which would be sent to an account abroad. I started typing the numerical sequence in an out of the ordinary speed, as my eyes ran through the numbers that appeared on the luminous screen.-We don't have much time. The system is paralyzed.I heard Normani's voice in the back, as if I were several meters away.-I'm almost there... -I said without stop typing the numbers that would give me all the access.I could hear the beating of my heart, strong and frantic. In that moment, all my concentration was there. I typed the last number and clicked on the little button on the left, when a new window opened on the screen, showing the following sentence "Access to the Financial System granted". A smile escaped my lips, drawing Dinah's attention, who approached quickly.-I hope that that smile is a good thing. – Dinah murmured hopefully.-Keep focus, I'll transfer the amount. -
-Are you enjoying the life you deserve? -I asked as I released him again -Cuckold!I walked away from him, seeing his body fall to the side completely limp. I glanced at Lauren who remained the same way. Until I heard some knocks on the door.-Ma'am. - one of the men entered the room -They are already waiting for you in the other room.I just nodded at him who left right away. I glanced one last time at Christopher, and then approached Lauren again.-I'm going to solve some things, but don't worry. I'm here to protect you. -I whispered, depositing a kiss on her forehead.I got up again and straightened the dress in my body, and then ran one of my hands through my hair and walked out of that room. I saw the men on the first floor in an entertaining conversation, and walked back to the main room. Upon entering my room, I came across the people who were waiting for me.Tower. Bishop.-Were you visiting your detainees? - Dinah asked with a cynical smile - 0r should I say your lovers?I ro
I'm sorry about this, but I simply can't do it differently. -I whispered as I touched her so delicate face with the tip of my fingers- You were not in my plans, Lauren. I sighed, and slid my thumb down her cheek, until reaching the outline of her lips.-Maybe you're the only one who can make me fall in this game. -my hand slid over her hair, in a soft caress - But I can't let that happen.I held her head delicately, resting it on the floor slowly. I got up, and looked around the room. On the other side was Christopher, tied up and thrown on an old mattress. I approached him and pulled his heavy body with certain difficulty off the soft object; I dragged the mattress to Lauren's body. And with less difficulty, I placed the young woman's body on top of the relatively soft mattress; I untied the knot and removed the rope around her body, to then tie up only her wrists.-I think you're better this way. - I whispered to her, as if she could hear me -I won't let anyone hurt you again, okay
Camila Collins' Point Of ViewThe place was big, dimly lit, and totally away from the city. It was a perfect choice to execute my plan. Nothing could go wrong in that moment, nor in future events. Everything was thoroughly thought out, worked, and executed, so that nothing could hinder that move. After all, that wasn't a mere game of luck, but of strategy. Only the best and strongest players survived in the unequal jungle of that board game called real life. And I'd show that my entry in that game had only one goal: to win.-Put them in that room!*(Play song- Gangsta by Kehlani)*I heard the deep and masculine voice yelling in the background, echoing through the vast space of the abandoned warehouse. I walked slowly into one of the rooms, which was in a much better state than the rooms where the victims of my little game would be in. I heard heavy footsteps in the cold floor right behind me, taking care to serve me. I walked to the center of the huge room, where there was a table wit
As soon as I tried to get closer to Camila, we heard the shrill ring of her phone. She looked at me and walked towards the desk to grab the device that was there. I just watched her as I sat on the soft couch.-Hi, honey.I heard her say as soon as she answered the call. I rolled my eyes at that, receiving a soft chuckle from her.-Of course, I'll wait for you there then. She was silent for a few minutes, when she spoke again:-Lauren? Yes, she's here. Alright, I'll go with her to the restaurant. Camila said goodbye to her husband in an affectionate way before putting the phone on the desk.-He wants you to take me to a restaurant. We're going out to lunch.-Okay, I'll take you to the cuckold.Lunch went by slowly and tortuous. Camila and I maintained a trivial conversation while Christopher continued glued to his phone, alternating between some mouthfuls of his Italian pasta. The man seemed to be trying to divide himself into an army to take care of so many subjects. After some insi
