“So, how did it go?” Isabella sat down next to her on the bed before she could see tears welling in her eyes.

“I think he hates me now” she muttered under her breath. “Selena, what happened ?”

“I guess that........I just don‟t feel the same way”

“That‟s a shameful lie, Selena. Why do you keep doing this to yourself? There's something good going on between you”

“Then why couldn't I go through with it?”

“Go through with what? Do you mean.....?”

“Yes, we were in the car and we kissed but I couldn't do it. I don't know what came over me. He barely said a word to me on our way back”

“Am so sorry. Just give him time”

Selena laid back in bed, sighing. “He must think..... Honestly, I don't know what he's thinking?”

“Don't punish yourself too much. Am certain you will work it out somehow”

“I don't know what am doing. But I can't let myself fall for him. We belong in two different worlds.”

“So what will you do ?”

She breathed. “I will let him know that we should keep things profe

    Deep in the quiet of the mild December night, a fog came over the scene, conceiving a moment of awful foreboding as the hours slowly faded away. On a night like this one, months ago, Don could have lost his brother to a far more dangerous man than he thought he was. But now, in this cruel portion of the night, he had come one step closer to getting to the man that did this. He had made it to his fortress.If he had found him here, in his hideout, his fortress, then he would have put a bullet through his heart.Deep in the quiet of the night, Don entered his car once more, wincing from the damage on his shoulders and the pain on the back of his hand which he got from killing a few men in an insatiable rage, leaving them to chill in the embrace of the endless night.The chaplain did this. These dead men were his and many more men would face the same fate if they would stand between vengeance. Don swore inside his seat that killing these men didn't make him a monster, at least not until

    Selena shivered in the dark, leaning against the barrier of the roof edge. To be fair, and honest, she had denied herself the desire of loving a man, this man. It was becoming unbearable. Her temporal stay here at the estate now meant more to her than she would admit. It was about time she did something to make herself happy. She was going to tell him before the morning light.The whistling cold wind made her remember the earlier moments when heat lanced through her body from the mere touch of him. All at once she swung around and approached the door, determined. She was ready for anything and she was going to make love to him.In a sudden and quick burst, the door in front of her opened. She stilled as a lone figure stepped out into the open, meeting her outside. Apparently, he needed her as much as she did him.“Am sorry, am sorry about earlier. I don't know what came over me” she explained, somehow mortified.He said nothing.“I know you must think am crazy but you must know that t

    “I thought I heard footsteps going down the stairs. I was investigating,” Isabella explained, holding both hands against her chest as if apprehensive of some strange danger.“It was just me, there is no need to worry. We are in the safest place possible” she assured. “Just go back to bed.”“Why were you up so late?”“I....had.......um “ She coughed, puzzling the quickest lie. “I couldn't sleep.”“Are you not going to explain the man's voice that accompanied you?” she asked, amusement flickering on her face.Selena's face reddened immediately, “How much of the man's voice did you hear?”“I heard enough.” She drew closer, “I need details, tell me what happened, how it happened” she pressed impatiently.“Well.......” She took a quick labored breath, “I finally confessed to him” “And........?”“We made love.” She smiled and quickly stifled squealing laughter of ecstasy. “Was it good? Was it like one of your fantasies?”“Better, it was much better.” She breathed in deeply as more color

    What was that?” She ordered with a tingle of exasperation in her voice. “What was what ?”“That senseless greeting you just threw at me. Are we back to being strangers all of a sudden?”“Last time I checked, doctor, we were nothing more than strangers. You made your point last night when you went running out of my room,”She clenched her teeth, biting back some untamed words. “Is this what you always do? You sleep with women and throw them away like trash. I never should have made the mistake of thinking you are better than this.”“I don't have time for this kind of drama so early in the morning.” He picked up his pace and left her standing there, speechless, tears welling in her eyes. As soon as he went out of sight, Isabellaappeared, in the same manner, approaching from the backyard, her dress a little wet from the morning dew.*. *. *. *. *The night came by quickly and Selena once again found herself on the roof, mirroring her grief in the light of the bright moonlight.“I though

    Something here wasn’t right. Who was this man standing with the love of his life? Don could feel a murderous evil breeding inside of him towards this unknown person, standing, gazing fixedly, at his Selena. Did he just witness this stranger kiss her? Did he also just see her kiss him back with unmistakable clarity? Something here was all wrong. It was dark and cold with the moonlight illuminating the tableau.Selena was kissing him barely five minutes ago. Kissing him as if forgetful of her former self. She had passionately allowed herself to be possessed by this stranger’s arms, her lips to be invaded by his with ease, her breasts to be molested and her....... derrieres to be caressed in so many intense ways. Maybe this was no mere stranger but a secret lover to her. Her intimate moaning could be heard in the dark even from where Don had stood. He could hear the sound of their lips unsticking for quick rests and again continuing to reconnect into oneness. And all the while Don watche

    Don was standing in silence with his back against the wall with his eyes lost in the night sky. He was breathing, heavily. Selena was on the ground on the other side, sobbing aloud without any attempt to look up at him.Isabella could see the third body on the ground and he was gasping for breath. A rapid surge of adrenaline sent her running to him, damning everything else. She knelt down in front of him and assessed the damage quickly as she picked his head gently onto her lap. He opened his eyes slowly, meeting hers directly in the faint light afforded by the moon, and she began crying. He would never really understand how patient she had been for him.“What happened?” she begged, turning to Selena. “Why is he bleeding?” No one was saying anything. “Selena help me, please, help me get him down to the Shed.” She attempted to pick him up. Selena was just laying there, sobbing and when finally she gathered the strength to look up at Don, she could feel his breathing, his pain. How cou

    “What do you want me to do?”“I want you to come with me. I want you to go away with me for a few days”“Okay, I’ll go anywhere with you.”She looked up into his eyes, studying him. He only told her to get into the car, telling her that he was going to drive this time.“Where are we going?”“Some place that is going to make me forget,” he said. He put his hand gently over hers, forcing a smile. She had no idea what extent he was willing to reach to make herself feel better.As they settled in the car, the sun came up, its luminous outline like burning embers. Its light scattered across the plain, shedding color over every shadow.When they began driving, she did nothing but condemn herself in her seat in that untimely stolen moment. She would say no word to him until he was ready to even look at her. Quietly she rested in her seat and closed her eyes momentarily. He turned to her briefly, watching as she embraced herself when the air around them got cold. At length she opened her eyes

    “Do you want me to hurt you?” “Yes........”“Do you want me to own you tonight?” She said nothing.“Are you drunk?” “No.......”“You are breaking the rules. I am going to have to punish you for that.” He slid the glass of wine from her side of the table, gathering her full attention.“Do you want me to make love to you?”“Yes..........” She squirmed in her stool, next to him but she ended up framing her thighs fully when her dress moved higher.Immediately he touched her there and she almost protested but her hands stopped mid-way, remembering how much she ached to have him inside of her. As his hands continued deeper, she let out a breathless moan, pinching her legs together and locking him in.“You’ll have to let my hand go, I haven’t gotten to the best part yet”She covered her face, now embarrassed but eventually obeyed. He stopped and withdrew.He thought for a moment and then decided to lead her somewhere.“Come with me,” he said. “The night has just begun. Slowly he guided he

    It was dark outside and cold, to say the least. A few cars would pass him by time and again. The only safe place he could go to was a couple of miles away. Now that his cover was blown, he needed to be careful.Beams of bright light cleared the road from behind him. At this time of the night, he was the only one walking. The car behind him slowed down until stopping right in front of him. An unfamiliar vehicle. The window rolled down and there she was again.“For a guy who’s a criminal, you’re not very hard to find”He leaned in through the window, catching a better look at the Detective. “Maybe I wanted to be found by you.”“ Why would you want me to find you Maximus ?” “You’re the only one I know here”A few more cars passed them by as they stood there.“This place is dangerous” she reminded. “Do you have a place to stay ?”“Yes, my warehouse is a few minutes walk from here”“Well, I certainly cannot let you walk there. And I can’t let you sleep in a warehouse either. I have to keep

    A few more hours went by. It had stopped raining and the curtains dangled and swayed gently from the cold wind making its way through the window.Selena was resting on his chest, listening to his heartbeats. He would run his hand down her bare back gently and picture something more than this passing moment. He could feel the warmth of her whole body on him and he relished this feeling.“Can I ask you a question?” she began quietly. ”Go ahead”“Promise you won’t get mad”“I already don’t like where this is going” he confessed.She pushed up to look at him directly. “I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t important, please........” “Okay, fine, you can ask”She breathed. “Where is your brother? I am only asking because I know he has also been through a lot”He took his time to say, “My brother left the country a few days ago. He promised to never come back”She cringed inside. Space and time were not what the brothers needed right now. Being apart was just going to break them further from each o

    Steady footsteps echoed outside the door. The sound of imminent danger was almost muffled by the falling rain. A spear of lightning lit the sky and a shadow from the front door crept in uninvited.Don slunk out of the sheets with his gun drawn. His eyes were a bit sore from a heavy sleep. It was now four in the morning. Heart pounding in his chest, he reached for the door, swung it hard, and almost opened fire on........Selena! His hands jerked back to hide the gun. He took in the rest of her wet and trembling body, accompanied by the fear of nearly being shot at.“Selena?”“Am sorry, I didn’t mean to come unannounced, but I figured you wouldn’t have met me had I asked....”“What are you doing here, especially this time of the night ?” “I wanted to-”“No, actually, don’t mind that. How did you find me”“I’ve spent a month with the most elusive crime lord in all of Colombia, don’t you think I know a few tricks by now?”He immediately pulled her inside, “Come on in, and I'm sure it's Du

    DANDELIONS*. *. *. *. *“Hi Laura, it’s me, Selena.” She could hear her voice bouncing back from the walls on the other end of the line. There was heavy breathing on the phone.“Selena?” the wavering voice broke through. “Is that you ?” “Yes Lu, it’s me” she answered, holding back the tears.“But...........how.........I thought you were......dead” She breathed, now crying. “Let’s not do this over the phone. Meet me at the play Park in one hour. Bring Erick with you.”“Uuuum, okay.........we will be there” she promised, still in shock.The Play Park was a large green field of irregular plains. A dozen deliberate trees held a few spots to offer to relieve shelter to the couples that flocked here from the library across the street. The state museum stood eastward, overlooking the lucent lawn and satiating atmosphere.Selena came here as quickly as she could, and stood anxiously for a moment in the open as she searched for them.It had been so long since she saw Erick and Laura, her fami

    “I love you” she began“Don’t .......please don’t. Not now”“I need to tell you this. You have to believe me”He only pushed passed her and walked to the front door.“This is all my fault” she moaned, catching his attention with the desperate attempt. “I know that all this is happening because of me.”He didn’t stop at the sound of her voice. He eventually exited the room but she quickly followed him and again she said, “Please Don, this is my fault. You can punish me if you want. I know I deserve it but please let me take her to the hospital. I am going to come back.”“Your words mean nothing to me. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to trust a word from your mouth. You say one thing and do the other. You claim you feel nothing for my brother but you scream his name when I make love to you.”“Am sorry Don I am. Maybe I haven’t

    Isabella ripped that one page from her diary. This was her only moment. She was finally going to confess. She willed herself out of the room. There was no time like the present.If she was going to fail to tell him her heart’s desire, then she was simply going to hand him that piece of paper. In her paper she said,‘I have never known happiness. I have never seen the sun’s bright rays of light. Even at the night, my heart has never been moved by the moonlight and the stars. To me they were nothing but rocks, burning millions of miles away. But then in my deepest darkest moment, I met you.In my lonely moments, I saw you. You have filled my heart with love, like a thief you have stolen my heart and hid it in a place only you can find.Don’t you now consider yourself to be selfish? How can you understand this feeling if I do not yet exist in your lonely world?But now, because you are the reason, I can watch the sun as it rises from its sleep, I stay up late at night some days and make

    In a few hours, it began showering with a beastly cold wind menacing the outside world as if the atmosphere was giving way to an age of ice. The fever had weakened her to the utmost. She could only think of her diary as a means to escape her current state of mind. In her diary, she told him all the things she couldn’t say to him in person. Then again she remembered that if he still wasn’t in his right state of mind, then she would pretend to be Selena and tell him all the things written in her diary.Suddenly she could heard footsteps down the corridor and she wills herself out of bed. Her body is weak and there is pain throbbing in her temple from the fever. The moment she made it out of the room, she could see Maximus making his way to the front door. She hurries behind him and trudges down the stairs. She stops for a quick breath, coughs, and tries to drive off the dizziness in her eyes. She manages to get to the door and there he is, standing on the edge of the porch, staring int

    It was still raining outside when Isabella opened her eyes. She was still alone in bed, aching. As she sat up, shivering from the cold, there was the thought of him. He needed her and she needed to lay aside her feelings as a nurse for him.She managed to pull herself from bed and walked to his room. He wasn’t there. He was gone, just like a few nights before. Panicking, she ran up and down the stairs looking for him. He was gone, perhaps to look for his brother or maybe he had come back to normal and searched for Selena.Panicking a little more with each passing minute, she decided to explore his room one final time, this time she was tempted to take a peak through the window.There he was. Standing in the rain with his arms spread like it was a beautiful sunny day. Her heart shot out immediately. He still wasn’t in his right state of mind.She stormed out of the room, down the stairs, through the front door, and took no time to jump into the rain. He was still just standing there.“
