- My right? I arched an eyebrow.- Of course, after all you've worked, you deserve to be there. I know how to be a very grateful man, believe me. And now, for God's sake, understand that I'm not chasing you, I'm not jealous of Hector and much less... Into you.- Okay, you've already made it clear that you're not into me... Ever since. - I started to laugh. - I confess I think you're a hottie, boss.He immediately blushed and his blue eyes narrowed:- You are beautiful, Baby. But...- You don't need to justify yourself, Sebastian. Everything is fine. I prefer you with Milena, believe me. Because it's one less for me to get out of Hector's way.- Milena never liked Hector... She was always mine.- “ Mine”... Why do you men have this habit of saying that everything is yours? We women don't belong to anyone.- Heitor already said that you are his, by any chance?I lowered my eyes, not responding. Yes, he had said. And let's just say I wasn't that offended.- I kill him.- What? – I stared
I arrived at the hospital with sore fingers from so many times I called Hector and his phone remained off.He'd think I just missed our date on purpose, without even giving an explanation. But I had a reason... My grandmother was the only thing I had in my life, my blood relative... What was left of my mother, my family.I waited over three hours before they let me in to see her. She was in Intensive Care, but as I had come from far away and was her only family member, they allowed me to stay for a maximum of fifteen minutes, to reassure her.Mandy was in a more remote space, inside the Intensive Care room itself. Lying on a bed, with several wired devices attached to her body. I approached and felt a pain in my heart to see how pale she was. I touched her icy hand and she opened her eyes, pressing her fingers to mine.- Baby...- Hi, Mandy. How it feels?- I don't think I died, do I? Or are you the one who welcomes people to heaven? She smiled, with difficulty.- He didn't. He's in t
- And the other one wasn't? he asked, ironically. - Sit down. – he said seriously.Okay, it wasn't a life-and-death affair where I needed to quit and run, although yes, I was in a bit of a hurry. I still needed to go back that day to the city where I lived most of my life.I looked at Sebastian. We had known each other for a short time, but we had a certain connection from the first moment we saw each other. There, facing him, I even remembered when I was in that same chair, asking for a job, two months ago. His interested look and request for sincerity during the interview.I still wasn't sure if I was really in Perrone for my intellectual capacity or to serve as revenge against Heitor Casanova. I was also trying to understand why Sebastian was trying to keep me there at all costs, even though I had asked for an advance on the second day of work, being involved, or rather, “being” involved with the man he hated, having meddled in life. his personal and still giving him a slap, follow
I pressed the elevator button that would take me to the top floor. My heart felt out of control and I wasn't even sure why. I wanted explanations much more than I had to explain.My grandmother got sick and I had to go... And Hector's fucking phone was off. What I feared most was what he would say about Cindy Connor answering his phone.I entered the gigantic reception room. There were two men waiting, both handsome and wearing suits. I went directly to one of the secretaries:- I want to talk to Heitor Casanova.She looked up at me:- Do you have an appointment?- No. But tell him it's Barbara.- Barbara of what? – the other interjected.- He knows what... - I smiled and seconds later I got serious. - Now!The two looked at each other and laughed.- May I know why you are laughing? Will you call Hector or will I have to go in unannounced?- He is in an important conversation and I can guarantee that it will take time. - One of them said, without looking at my face and they both laugh
I went there to ask for an explanation... We didn't talk to anything and my panties were already soaked and all my body did was cry out for him. I wouldn't see Hector anytime soon again. I had no idea how long it would take my grandmother to get better, and I wasn't even sure if I would return to the capital.Once again my life was turned upside down. And just at the moment I thought everything was falling into place: a good job, a possible romantic relationship after so much time alone...Hector led me to the glass table and spread my legs, placing his body between them. I felt his tongue on mine and then I realized how much I was involved and in love with that man and that he missed me a lot in those miserable two days, that is, 48 hours. What would become of me?The kiss was getting hotter and more intense and I felt it when his mouth seemed to want to devour me and my lips didn't leave her, completely. Hector's scent was killing my sanity... The expensive perfume mixed with all th
- My grandmother is all I have. I can't leave you.- And can you leave me? His voice changed.- It doesn't seem like my absence shook you much, since I found you with the blonde with the middle dick, does it?- Why do you always make things difficult for me, the fuck? He ran his fingers through his hair.- You didn't tell me what exactly she was doing here. I already gave my explanations about what I went to do on Saturday... And it was a serious case of illness. I remember you promised me you'd break up with Milena and Cindy – I laughed. - It's even funny to say that... Submitting myself to charge you to end your relationship with "two women". How far have I come...- Cindy is not an easy woman.- I'm giving a fuck about this.- I'll need it.- What do you mean "need it"? I frowned, in disbelief at what he was saying.- I don't have another reliable person to take over Babylon.- Heitor, are you trying to say that we are going to be a couple, however your ex will take care of your mi
Two days after my arrival in the countryside, I received a call from Hector. To say that my legs didn't immediately shake and my heart didn't beat faster would be a lie.Oh Hector, how I wish you could tell me right now that you sent Cindy out of your life, your home, your country... If that's what you called me for, I'll be yours forever. But if not... You will meet my fury."Hi..." I said, trying not to sound nervous.- I just can't stand to miss you. – He said at once.- This sentence can be changed. May I suggest it be “Barbara, I miss you so much.” What do you think?- You fucking understand. What a habit you have of trying to confuse me... And make me even crazier than I already am.- You can change this to: Barbara, without you I can't even think straight...- Fuck, when are you coming back?- This one you replace with: “How is your grandmother? I hope well."He was silent on the other end of the line, but I could hear his nervous breathing.- Tell me Cindy is not in charge of
- I can't, Baby. I need to fulfill the promise I made to her.Heavens, my chest hurt so much. Remembering my mother broke me. It was such a great, intense longing. And I knew I could never get rid of that feeling inside me. Because I wouldn't see her again, with her sweet smile, her perseverance and optimism and the certainty she gave me that everything would work out, always.If there was a promise that I wouldn't find out the truth, Mom was sure I would seek revenge on the bastard.Of course I was going to find out, one way or another. I didn't want to know who my parent was. But to be sure who was the man who hurt the most perfect woman in the whole world: my mother.Mandy wiped my tears and said:- You're not a child anymore... And I know it. But as long as I live, I will protect you from anything that could hurt you.She started the car and drove off again. We went in silence until we arrived at the site.As soon as we entered the house, I said:- I'll stay here for a while.- No
