Escape and Signs of Pregnancy"The Wolf Mafia is here!" Lisaura announced, fearful, disguising her nervousness and speeding up the motorcycle."What's going to happen?" Molly asked, worried and feeling guilty for putting Lisaura in danger."We can't stay in this city, we have to take the main road without passing through any of these towns and go straight to the Amazon city. We can't afford to be stopped!" Lisaura recounted, taking a shortcut out of the city.After reaching the entrance gate, they were greeted by two women: one with a punk appearance and another towering nearly two meters tall, who looked like a general in her black blouse and army green pants."What are the girls doing on this side of town?" the giant woman asked in a deep voice, running her hand through her slicked-back hair tied in a tight bun."We want a place to stay," Lisaura replied, her voice firm."What's wrong?" questioned the punk woman, with a piercing gaze."We're being forced to sell our bodies in a brot
Chapter 10: Eloah Hands Over Lisaura."Do you know who it was?" Braston questioned, his posture rigid in the chair as he observed her. Shivers ran down her spine, the imposing figure in front of her exuding an aura of fear and authority. The elegance of his attire contrasted with the hardness of his features, but even though she was accustomed to his presence, at that moment, it was an interrogation, no longer one of their nights together."I don't know what you're talking about," she stammered, her heart pounding in her chest."Eloah..." He muttered her name impatiently. "I will kill all the prostitutes from that place, do you understand? Most of them have been tortured and are locked in my private prison. You can save them.""Why?..." She cried, struggling to hold back tears."Who was the person who went in your place? I just want to know that. Or all the girls will die and it will be because of you," he stared at her with disdain, a look that squeezed her heart, torn by her conflic
Chapter 11: Confirmed PregnancyThree months later, the confirmation of the pregnancy was undeniable. Lisaura stood pale in front of Molly, staring at her tiny belly."Surely that's not just food!" Molly exclaimed, frantic, pacing around like a confused beetle. "You've been constantly nauseous, and then all those symptoms... How can your belly grow like this just from food? It's not possible!" She panicked, her mind only recalling her brother Matheus. Fear ran down her spine, and all she wanted was to flee, while Lisaura watched her with compassion."It's not possible!" She began to hit her own head, desperate."It's not your fault," Lisaura tried to calm her. "I know you're scared, but we'll figure this out together.""Yeah, I'm an idiot!" Molly whimpered, overcome with guilt. "I should have taken the pill, but my brother...""But I gave you the pill and it failed!" Lisaura interrupted, taking responsibility. "So the blame is on me!""In fact, I didn't even take it," Molly confessed,
A Furious Mobster."Five months of searching and nothing!" Braston asserted furiously in his dark and cold office, while the men cowered in fear."Sir! The friend abandoned her at the hospital, the expenses... She knows you helped her, so that also influenced," the man commented."Maybe that was my mistake!" he asserted, pounding the table. "Continue to monitor until the day Eloah dies!" he ordered, and they quickly left."Fabrizio!" his father Jeff shouted, the capo, entering abruptly and making him stand up from his chair and assume a soldier's posture. "Have you found her yet?" he asked, annoyed."I still haven't found the girl," he said indifferently, without facing his father."How can a prostitute disappear like this? Search even in the sewer networks! The entire region is informed about the stolen ring," he commented, making Braston huff, annoyed."I said the search was silent!" he asserted, irritated."It's been five months, there are only four rings, each ring has a decoding.
A Wanted Assassin."You went into their room!" she asserted, laughing hysterically."Hey, don't laugh!" he warned her with a serious tone. "I did it all for you, but don't dwell on it too much. I left without them even noticing," he lied, omitting the fact that he had killed five guards and disguised himself with one of their uniforms. Molly barely noticed that he was wearing different clothes, too tight for his body."You're really amazing!" she exclaimed, still laughing, but with admiration in her eyes."Of course!" he puffed with pride, exaggerating a bit. One of the buttons on his shirt popped open, revealing his muscular chest."So... Did you grow up or did the clothes shrink?" she asked with a playful smile, watching him pretend to ignore what had happened."I'll make you an herb soup," he commented absentmindedly, looking around for a stove that didn't exist."There's no stove here, we get food from the house downstairs," she informed him casually as she sat on the bed."That d
The cold of the air conditioning contrasted with the warmth emanating from Molly's heart as she walked alongside Matheus down the hospital corridor. With each step, the anticipation of seeing her baby for the first time grew. Finally, the door to the ultrasound room opened, and happiness engulfed them both. The news that it would be a boy filled them with joy.However, Matheus's happiness was short-lived. As he left the room, his eyes met the figure of Braston walking down the corridor, accompanied by three sinister men. A shiver ran down Molly's spine as she noticed her brother's abrupt change in mood. The radiant smile that illuminated his face dissolved into an expression of apprehension, his eyes narrowed in concern as he pulled her behind him, fearing that Braston would recognize her, while clutching the ultrasound paper tightly against his chest."Long time no see," Braston murmured over his sunglasses, a smirk playing on his lips."Doesn't matter," Matheus grumbled sharply, try
So close yet so far.Braston personally went to the Amazon organization, obviously not allowed to enter, yet he requested a legal meeting so he could talk to the leader."To what do I owe your personal visit?" asked Brígida, the city's chief, with a tone of suspicion in her voice."Do you still maintain this strict and idiotic policy of keeping men out of the city?" Braston inquired almost shouting, his eyes fixed on Brígida's guards who had their weapons drawn towards him."Of course, I don't accept men of questionable character in my premises," she announced arrogantly, raising her chin challengingly, the muscles of her face tense."That's not what I saw..." Braston retorted, his voice laden with irony, his eyebrows raised in a gesture of disdain. "After all, the beastly assassin is in here, you know the war he can cause, don't you?" he asked calmly, but his eyes gleamed with a veiled threat."Are you angry because I was able to recruit him and you couldn't even get the girl from th
Getting Closer"Have you received the new identity I asked Lisa to make?" Matheus inquired, watching Molly explore the new apartment. The place was simple but cozy, with a fresh jasmine scent in the air indicating recent cleaning."She handed it to me, but I didn't need to use it," Molly replied indifferently, grabbing a suitcase and opening it. A sealed envelope lay at the bottom."Where exactly?" Matheus asked, consulting a map on his notebook."Here in the suitcase," she said, showing him the envelope."You'll need it to go to the doctor," he warned sternly, his face serious."What are you doing?" Molly questioned, approaching. She didn't understand the incessantly flashing red dot on the map."It's Lisaura's phone," Matheus explained, making Molly even more anxious."My God! Are you going after her?" she asked, incredulous."Of course not. But I know this location well. I need to keep my allies under surveillance, even if it's just a woman of the night," he replied, with an indiff
Chapter 93: Closing.Molly and Braston continued their journey to New Orleans. They had their moments of peace, and during their stay, Braston showed her his favorite place, where he creates perfumes, with the master perfumer who taught him how to craft fragrances."So, he’s the one who taught you how to create fragrances?" Molly asked, surprised, as they walked through the luxurious boutique, a truly charming place."Yes, when I arrived here, I couldn’t handle people, not even those I liked, except you. When I met you, I think it was because you were the most innocent and pure thing my hands had ever touched," Braston said nostalgically. "But Chief Pierre taught me how to look at people and imagine what scent would be perfect for them, and then refine it. You were my peach, but it’s been a while since you entered my life, and everything has taken on a different scent. You changed everything. I’m happy to be by your side," he confessed, looking around. Molly, on the other hand, felt u
Chapter 92: Cave‘No…’ he muttered with a grunt, wanting to curse loudly but holding himself back. ‘What the hell do you want? Weren’t you sleeping?’ he asked, clearly annoyed. ‘I was, but I saw you leaving… Everyone left with their partners and it’s just the two of us. Let’s go out together?’ she asked, as he unceremoniously removed her from his back. ‘Go back home!’ he stated, not even looking her in the eyes. ‘And what about what happened at the hotel?’ she insisted, quickening her pace to stay by his side. ‘Nothing happened! I was drunk, woke up the same way I fell asleep, except without my shirt and with my car vomited in. That’s because this little thing, who doesn’t know how to drink, ruined everything.’ He spoke with irritation, but without raising his tone. ‘When are you going to stop treating me like a child? Are you blind?’ Laysa asked indignantly. ‘I treat women like women. I treat children like children. And you need to stop thinking you’re a woman,’ he grumbled, ir
Cap.91: What Happened to Matheus"Matheus had moved in with Mariana, returning to his old house in Russia. He didn’t understand why she chose this destination, the same city where his mother had lived."Why are we here?" he asked, confused."My family lives here, and this is our country. Besides, it's been a long time since you visited your mother's grave, right?" she replied, her tone apprehensive.Matheus had only visited that place once after becoming an adult. His last memory of being there was when he was nine. Now, being back made his heart tighten. Life seemed so unfair, and all of this because of the greed of a cruel man."To think my mother was his woman... And that, in the end, he traded her, reduced her to a mistress. I always judged her, thought she was greedy for wanting a rich man. I remember well... One time, I even yelled at her, just days before she was murdered," he said, his voice choking, as his knees touched the snow-covered ground in front of his mother’s grave.
Cap.90: Beware of him, not me.Cassius hadn't realized that he had held Laysa in his arms the entire night. She had completely passed out, and both of them were drunk. In the morning, no one remembered anything. Cassius was the first to wake up and, to his surprise, found Laysa’s arms wrapped around him, resting peacefully on his chest. For a moment, a faint smile appeared on his face as he gazed at her serene, smiling expression.However, as his eyes traveled down her body, he noticed her shirt was lifted, revealing part of her backside. His conscience weighed heavily on him, and his expression shifted to concern. Discreetly, he pulled her shirt down to cover her better. He sighed in relief when he saw that she was still wearing her underwear. "Thank God nothing happened," he thought. Then, he checked his own clothes and felt even more relieved to see he still had his pants on."Supposedly, she doesn't remember sleeping on top of me. If I move her slowly, she won't notice. Damn it...
“To think that I love you,” she muttered, crying.“Cut the crap! I already told you, stop saying that bullshit,” he snapped, annoyed.“Look!” Laysa said, pointing at where they were.“I see it, a hotel. So what?” he replied with disdain.Laysa stared at him in disbelief while he laughed incredulously.“No way. The last time I went into a hotel with you, and mind you, it was an apartment, I got arrested. You’re trouble.”“But I’m a woman now, there’s no problem with that. Look at me! I need a shower; this smell is making me sick.”“The mix of booze and vomit is hell, baby girl. That’s your punishment. And I don’t know who put it in your head that you’re a woman.”“What the hell? What do you think I am, then?” she asked, unable to believe what she had just heard.“Look, I’ll take you there, you’ll clean yourself up, and we’ll leave before the cops show up,” he said seriously.Laysa almost jumped with joy, but Cassius kept his distance from her, clearly uncomfortable.He rented a room an
Chap. 89: Your View of MeCassius stayed on the party floor, not far from the stage where the dancers performed. Francine and the girls were going wild, while he, with a stern expression, kept disapproving of the situation. He was close to his limit, thinking about ending the party with gunfire, but he suppressed the urge with alcohol even though he was responsible for taking the group home.Laysa remained near Francine but didn’t blend in. The poor thing only watched Cassius from afar. After three failed attempts to approach him, she drowned her shame in mixed drinks, even after so many rejections.“Lay, stop staring at that brute! Look at how many hot, handsome guys are around!” Francine shouted, trying to compete with the loud music as she pulled her friend to dance.But Laysa had no enthusiasm for anything.“You don’t understand… I love him… I’m crazy about him!” she confessed, her voice thick with alcohol and emotion.“Look, girl, I’ll be honest,” Francine said, already slurring.
"He pushed me?" Laysa murmured to herself, confused. "But there's only one man who would do that..." she said, while Molly fought Braston and Layane practically assaulted Frederick's chest.Laysa didn't waste time."I knew it! Cassius!" she exclaimed, ripping off his mask and throwing herself at him in a hug.Annoyed, Cassius pushed her away and left the stage without saying a word."What?!" Layane reacted, her heart racing. When she took off Frederick’s mask, he stood up furiously and dragged her off the stage without giving her a chance to react."Layla... what is going on?" Molly asked, her face pale and eyes brimming with tears.Layla just stared at her, full of remorse."Oh, Molly... You were advised not to come." That was all she said before turning her back and jumping off the stage straight into Caio’s arms.Molly looked at Braston, hesitant. Summoning her courage, she removed his mask, and as soon as she saw her husband's face, she nearly fainted."Is this a party?" Braston g
88: The Sisters’ Punishment"Oh, so Layane went to see naked men?" Frederick asked, his voice dripping with sarcasm and anger."But there's still time for you to catch them before the party starts!" Layla assured, anxious about her friends' fate."What do you mean?" Frederick frowned, intrigued."It's only seven o'clock; the dancers don't arrive until eight. You can go now and catch them by surprise!" Layla suggested, clearly uncomfortable."Right now!" Frederick declared, already preparing to leave, but Braston grabbed his arm, thoughtful."Wait, I have a much better idea," Braston said, a malicious smile sparking everyone's curiosity."My wife will have to explain this nonsense to me. A married woman, really? Does she think I'll forgive this? What’s your idea, Braston? Because time is running out." Frederick crossed his arms, impatient."Layla, you're going to take us there. From what I understand, there will only be three men on stage at this party. We'll catch them off guard.""Ge
87: The Final Judgment"Everything is ready. All the suitcases are already downstairs," Cassius announced, carrying his own luggage. The living room was already packed with the belongings of the four men. That night would be the trial, and in the morning, they would leave for Europe.Braston was on the brink of emotional exhaustion, his anxiety eating away at his patience. As a result, he spent most of his time with a closed expression and a distant gaze, almost oblivious to his brothers' conversations."Married life. Ugh!" Cassius spat the words out, noticing Braston’s distracted state and immediately understanding the reason.Braston’s mind seemed dark and turbulent, but he wasn’t the only one in a bad mood."Today is going to be a tense day for the youngest. Let’s get everything organized since he’s convinced that tomorrow he’ll reunite with his beloved. But, honestly, I don’t even want to go. Damn it! Not even with the best investigators can I find my damn wife. If she’s cheating
