Diego held a stopwatch in his hand. He had driven them to a remote area and stopped on the side of the road. It was training day. He told her to get her sneakers on and run into the woods as if she was being chased by Armand's gunmen. He was going to time her.
He dragged a barrel to the front of their motel room. It was a slow night at the motel, except for the hot couple next door who's been staying since the night before and couldn't seem to get their hands off each other. They've been having sex all day and all night, and they were loud.
After the shooting, he was immediately in contact with his lawyers to take care of things. He was close to having a meltdown. He locked himself in his room and wrecked his brain to figure out what had happened to Ari.He started snorting heroin to calm his
After the press conference the next morning, Armand took his parents' and in-laws' bodies back to Lancaster. He made arrangements with the funeral home to take care of them for the display before the burial. He was back at his family home and advised his board of directors to keep business running as usual. He was the sole owner of both his parents' and in-laws' businesses after the incident.
They were getting ready to move again, for Goldstone this time. He made sure everything was accounted for and left nothing behind.Ariana was taking a shower. The TV was on.
Being recognized by civilians was a wake-up call for Ari. She realized now her days will be much harder than what she had been through the past nine days. She will be running as a fugitive, not only from Armand and his men but from everyone who potentially will notice her and want to get the rewards for her return.
It was easier to be invisible in Goldstone. The Neon City people were more indifferent to their surroundings, let alone other people. They have to find a place to stay for one night and then they'll pick up her identity the next day before going straight out of town to an airport.
What he said stayed with her. It made a lot of sense. Living on the run, hiding the truth about who you really are is a lonely way to live. She was looking at at least 10 years of that in her future, the question was, will she be able to stay hidden for that long. Even if she could, will she be able to endure the unbearable loneliness?
They lie awake in each other's arms that night. Their last night together. Neither of them can express what they truly feel inside. They would've said something if they thought it would change anything.He had planned his retirement for years, she had plan
He shaved his beard, pulled his hair back, all clean and sleek like when they first met at her wedding. He put on an Armani suit, gold cufflinks, a blood-red tie, and a Hublot.She put on a vintage Chanel coat with a shawl and hat, dyed her hair blonde, pu
He didn't know what to do with Arturo's head and limbs at first. He had it in the trunk of the car he rented for almost two days while he searched for Ari. When he found out who had picked her that day, and gave the order to kill him, he decided to wrap Arturo up in a box and leave it on Pasquale's porch.
His eyes were half opened. She could only see the white parts of it. He twitched, and then his body started to shake. His arms and legs moved in a strange way, and then she realized he was having a seizure.She wanted to sedate him, avoid him for the night
When she entered the dining room, Armand was already sitting at the end of the long table. He had a solemn look on his face, and was contemplating on something.Her heart raced, but she had to play cool. She walked over to him with a smile, and handed him
She laid on the bed naked feeling depleted, she was drained from the will to go on. This cannot be the life she has to go through for the rest of her living years. Her waking hours belonged to Armand. She didn't know how else she could avoid him, they've been there for three days, by the end of the week there will be nothing left of her.
When he arrived at The Flaming Hut, all his spy senses went on alert. He walked along the corridor headed for their room and found a chunk of hair a few doors away. He immediately recognised it. His heart sank.He hid behind a wall and took his gun out, he
She was playing with her food at dinner. She had avoided him all day with a frown, she didn't want him to force her into having sex again, not the whole entire day the way he would've wanted. How was she going to cope with it? Being with him reminded her how much she couldn't stand him anymore.
She woke up tangled in the sheets with nothing on. It was morning again, and he had managed to lure her to bed again the night before. She looked to her side, he was fast asleep.She looked at the side table where his medication was. He'd been taking them
She slumped on the bathroom floor. Her body went into a shock, she was trembling hard. The image of Diego's body being found cut up into pieces pushed her to the verge of insanity. She held her cry until her stomach hurt, she didn't want Armand to see her that way.
