- Gean Carlos.The airport was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere, reflecting Kath's state of mind. The sound of her ragged breathing mixed with the constant hum of machinery and distant voices, creating a melancholy symphony that accompanied her all the way to the boarding gate.
Darren, beside her, held her hand tightly, trying to convey some comfort in the face of the difficult decision that had just been made. His eyes reflected a mixture of sadness and determination, knowing that the future ahead was full of uncertainties.As they boarded the plane, Kath felt the magnitude of the farewell intensify. She sank into her seat, the sobs now more contained, but still present. Darren remained by her side, an anchor of support in the midst of the emotional storm that was enveloping her, because he knew that his sister wasn't made of ironRelated chapters

"My heart still aches from the memories of that love, which went away leaving a part of me completely destroyed inside."- Clamaste Meanwhile, in Philadelphia, Harry was enveloped in an uncomfortable emptiness, a feeling that something crucial was slipping through his fingers, things didn't seem to make sense, something was missing.Why did he feel that something was missing inside him? Why was something wrong, but he didn't know why?Time seemed to drag on, and unanswered questions danced in his mind, creating an anguish he couldn't articulate.Red Rave spent days mourning Kath's death, and the members of the board and most of the employees were truly dismayed to hear what had happened to the company's president, because even when she hadn't met Harry and was a closed person with a pastel life, she had always been admired for paying above-market wages and providing decent working conditions, which wasn't always possible in industry and

"She was definitely no ordinary girl. She could set any cold heart on fire. And as if by magic, she could have eternity in every moment. In every smile."- The Last Love Letter. What had happened to Kath?Why had she ended up in the protection service? That's what everyone wanted to know, why? What had happened? The people close to Kath wanted answers, except for Harry, who knew Kath's real identity and had even learned from Brad and Dean that Timothy had somehow found the Gleizer brothers and chased them down.But he hadn't expected the police to arrive at the apartment where he lived with his fiancée without her. Why didn't they do their job?Why didn't they protect her?Why?There were so many questions, but no answers.He hadn't expected a couple of detectives with a few objects to be identified, as a mere formality, since, according to them, the police car transporting the brothers had already been duly recogni

"Today I can see that your eyes show me the way and your mouth tells me how to walk it. With our hands entwined, I know I can go on without fear. If I need to, I'll get down on my knees, proving my love, I have several appeals followed by a flower. I know that the only place I feel comfortable is in your arms, where I know I belong."-The love they described.The cup of cold coffee took on a new meaning, representing the moments shared around that hot drink, the deep conversations and the looks that spoke more than words. The man raised his cup as if to toast her memory, letting out a heavy sigh.The rain outside intensified, as if the sky shared the man's sadness, and the drops beat against the window like silent tears of nature, a symbiosis of pain between the man and the world around him.The clock on the wall continued to tick, but the man felt that, somehow, time had frozen in that space where past and present were intertwined

"It's not hard to forget, it's convincing your heart that there's no going back."-Tati Bernardi.Harry put on something, coming into the room wearing clothes that didn't even match, and his old prescription glasses, long since retired.His appearance, his very low voice and the very few words he exchanged with those present showed that all the personal progress he had made alongside Kath was at risk. He managed not to stutter, but he wouldn't look anyone in the eye, except his family, and he didn't feel comfortable for a second outside the room, even though he knew he was among friends."Hi, Harry," greeted one of his friends, offering a cautious hug. "How are you?""We didn't want you to face this alone. Kath was an amazing person, and we all miss her terribly."Harry replied with a silent nod, the pain still fresh on his face. The friends entered, bringing with them an air of normality that seemed lost in that space. Trying to dispe

"She's weak when it comes to these things, she has trouble with this abandonment thing. Even if she's the one who deserts the relationship."-Gabito Nunes.Kath had indeed made a will and, even though the assets officially belonged to Kath Beauvoir, as the false identity was authorized by the courts, the document was valid as if it belonged to Miss Gleizer, who was also the true owner of Red Rave, the real estate and everything else. Harry wasn't excited about looking after the company, but he promised himself he'd be back the following week, as he couldn't ignore one of the last wishes of the woman he'd love all his life.Faced with mixed emotions, Harry decided to honor Kath's wish.He immersed himself in his work, finding a sense of purpose in continuing the legacy she started at a young age, he knew that the company was her, and every strategic decision, every challenge overcome in the company, became a way of keeping Kath's memory alive.As he n

"It's just that you, damn it, you manage to bring all my parts together and make me all yours. You manage to pull me out of the darkness and into your light. You make me feel like the happiest person in the world just by being by your side. We are a whole, you and I, two incomplete halves that fit together perfectly. You make the little become absurdly much and fill me in every possible way. You, only you, make my life so sunny, and without you, I feel completely cloudy."Fernanda Rebecchi.The sun was setting over the horizon, tinging the sky with warm tones, but Kath's heart was shrouded in darkness.She thought of all the memories shared with Harry, the moments of joy and the challenges overcome together, and the thought of leaving him behind was a stab in her chest. After all, she had known love through him, she had known what it was like to have a family and to love and be loved through him, so what would become of her from now on?The reason b

Timothy Westwing was hiding in a hotel after his pursuit of Kath when he heard on one of the most important TV news programs in the United States that the girl had been using the surname Beauvoir for the last few years and had built up a huge empire before dying that night, along with her brother, who had adopted the false name of Darren Krigsman, in a very serious car accident.He felt outraged that he had been fooled for so long and angrily threw a bottle of whisky at the cabinet where the device was, because she had outsmarted him and managed to stay out of the media, even though she was a huge, wealthy businesswoman. How? How had she managed to fool him so boldly? Her name was always in the media, but he had been naïve and managed to be fooled and led astray so easily, it wasn't right, it wasn't possible.The news of her death was even convincing, because she was reported to be going home from the police station in a police car, after having filed a

"You make me believe in better mornings and more beautiful nights."-Clarissa Corrêa"Is it really him?" Mike asked Johanna after receiving the information. He didn't want to get his hopes up and then get frustrated, as had happened in other cases, where the death of a criminal, from whom they were protecting someone, had been a false alarm, that was too dangerous."According to what I've been told, his face isn't completely disfigured, so you can recognize him from the archive photos. He also seems to have fingerprints on some of his fingers, which match those in the system. But anyway, the Homicide guys said we could go and see for ourselves, if you want." She shrugged, while her partner quickly got up and put on a jacket, which had previously been hanging on the back of the chair."Of course I want to see for myself, man! I was in charge of Kath's protection here in Philadelphia as soon as I started in the Program, when I was practically still a

The games of domination and submission, of pain and pleasure, in the secret room, became a constant in the couple's life after that day. Not because Kath needed control, in business, in the home, in life or in sex, but because they liked it, because it was really, really intense and pleasurable to fulfill fantasies and test limits.It wasn't because they had become parents that things were over, but because they were still young, and having children, a family, only showed that being submissive and a slave was a thing of the bedroom, and apart from that, they were a normal couple.Not because either of them needed to be someone they weren't when they were out of there, wearing masks and disguises, but because they could simply play with some of the many facets of their personalities, which were intimate and private, which belonged only to the two of them.Not out of fear or necessity, but by choice. Because they discovered together that, between four walls, anyth

"To taste your lips was a dream come true. To taste you was the best thing I've ever felt in my life." A shiver ran through his body from head to toe, and his hands took a firm hold of my shoulders, squeezing them. It felt like an electric current was running through both of us, from one body to the other without stopping.He blindfolded Kath, offering her pâtés, creams, cheeses, jellies, liqueurs, and massaged her entire body with aromatic, warm, edible oil, which he tasted himself, kissing, licking, biting, sucking, until the last drop was mixed with his own saliva."I'm going to put you to bed." She looked at the huge bed and then at me."What do you want to do to me?" she asked rudely."I intend to make you come. May I, Mrs. Winston?" She gave me a small smile with the corner of her lip."If I tell you to stop, you will!""Of course. " I replied.I took her on my lap and she wrapped her legs around my waist.

Minutes later, she was playing at chasing him, while he pretended to attack her like a cornered animal, which was perfect for them to be in the positions of dominator and dominated, even if he left her in control most of the time.Slowly, he turned to face her, wanting to get a better look at the clothes she was wearing, if they could be called that. Kath was wearing pieces made of glossy black leather, which shone brighter than the black dye on my Bugatti, and a beautiful bodice covered her full breasts, compressing them, and tightened her waist, making her look even slimmer. A thong was all that covered her intimacy. On her arms, black latex gloves went up to just above her elbows. Leather boots went up to the middle of her thick thighs. The heel was so high that it seemed to cause pain to her ankles. She looked stunning, even dressed like a sadist.The deep red lipstick on her thick lips reinforced this image. Her long blonde hair was straight and flowed dow

"Date, but date someone who is as horny as you are. Never allow the flame of passion to cool, renew your relationship day after day. One of the advantages of having a relationship in which the flame of passion is still burning is that you can send - love fuck me - at any time of the day, night or dawn, and the person will do anything to get there as soon as possible."PedricovickEven though Kath had shown her weaknesses to him over the years, Harry had never stopped seeing her as determined and brave. Perhaps he even considered her stronger today, when the woman he had once seen as a female in heat, surrounding the male and putting him at her mercy, had turned into a lioness surrounding her cub, making sure that nothing could get to her or miss her.For the time being, however, both Kyra and Chase would still need a lot of care and direction for some years to come. They were children of just over three and one years old each, full of energy and curios

Now, she was officially a Winston, and had a real family, something she felt inside, and was part of.The happiness inside her couldn't fit inside her chest; if she could, she'd want to shout out to the whole world how happy she was.Kath and Harry's wedding in the small church with only a few guests was a testament to the strength and depth of their love, celebrating not only the commitment they made that day, but also the whole journey that had brought them there.

Kath knew she had good friends and that the Beauvoirs considered her a member of the family, but she still couldn't imagine receiving even a small part of the love that awaited her when she returned. Relief and joy could also be seen on the faces of people like the groom's grandparents, Samuel and Artie, and employees like Lily, Cora, Dean, Brad and Kevin, who had fortunately remained working for Harry or the company. Most people weren't content with just paying a visit, so the couple's apartment remained full of people at all hours of the day for over a week.Kath's return took everyone by surprise, but at the same time as questions arose, friends and family were happy to know that Kath and her brother were fine, and it was all just a big scare and a nightmare, which ended.As soon as they returned to civilization, news of the engagement spread among friends and family, bringing joy and happiness to all who witnessed Kath and Harry's enduring love.Then

Harry and Kath's reunion was marked by intense emotions, a mixture of joy, relief and love.Harry held the woman he thought he had lost with special care, as if he feared she might slip out of his arms at any moment."My love!" He spoke, pulling away to look at her face, caressing every bit of it, as if to make sure it was real. Like him, she was much thinner, haggard and with dark circles under her eyes that her make-up couldn't completely disguise, but she was still beautiful, illuminated by the late afternoon sun."I'm sorry for the pain I put you through." She begged, wetting his fingers with tears."You don't have to apologize for anything, Kath. I'm just glad to have you back," Harry whispered, as he hugged her tightly. His words were a balm to Kath's heart, and she felt grateful to have such a true love by her side.The intertwining of fingers and the tears that marked Kath's face were silent witnesses to the suffering they had both endured

Harry's hands trembled as he opened the envelope, his eyes scanning the photos which confirmed that Kath was alive and well.A wave of contradictory emotions washed over Harry.His first reaction was intense nervousness, mixed with a hint of anger at not having been told earlier, and he wondered why Kath had kept it a secret and how he would cope with the flood of feelings that engulfed him.However, as he examined the images, the anger was quickly replaced by an explosion of happiness. Kath's familiar face, now no longer obscured by the pain of loss, smiled back at him in the photographs.
