- POV Author narratingThe question was to find out which of the Davila family had spilled the beans, it was ruled out that it was Alaric, as he would be harming himself, his wife also ruled it out, which left the only thing left in doubt, women had no chance to consult the council, much less one who is not married to anyone in the clan.“You’re finally here!” she said excitedly, Karen hurried down the stairs to hug Agatha.The hug was long, a mixture of joy, concern, and longing for each other. Karen's wide smile left Agatha relieved, she thought she would find her in bed, overcome by the frightening situation of the disease.“Are you…” he searched for words to complete the sentence."Excellent!" added Karen, smiling.“Yes, wonderful” he jumped happily. “Is this because of Anthony, he finally admitted he loves you?”“No” h
- POV Author narrating They entered the pharmacy and started looking for her, when they were close to giving up, they found her in the pregnancy testing section. “Carla?” the two spoke together."What!" dropped two tests on the floor. "You are?" Karen was the one who asked.“No, I mean, I don’t know” he smiled without showing his teeth. “This one is the most reliable” Agatha took a fingerprint. Carla's face was scared, she was completely nervous and scared not for herself but for Derick's reaction if she confirmed a pregnancy. “I'm very happy that you're here, but I don't want a hug right now” she explained, she felt very stressed these days. “I just want the support, which I know I will get from you, and of course the help, because I am lost.” They smiled, Carla wanted to take the test right there, in a specific area for that. Only Agatha entered with her, because only one could a
- POV Karen Miller“Good evening, Karen” I jump up and go back. “Do you want me to come to you?”Anthony was in the kitchen, I controlled my breathing, at least I tried, and I entered the kitchen. He is sitting on one of the benches next to the bench. His torso is this sample, wearing just a pair of dress pants.“I know I’m late” I approach him. “And you’re mad at me.”I stand in front of you, with only the bench separating us, my protection zone. Before I looked at the cup in her big hands, but now her attention was on me, as always, her gaze was unreadable.“Yes, I am” I hear some cracks, I look around, and I go back to him, I open my mouth a little, the cup in his hands, he was breaking it.“Anthony, you're going to hurt yourself” I came out from behind the counter and took his hands.“It’s either
- POV Karen Miller“Anthony...” I said between short breaths.“Shut up!” She tilted her body, barely on top of mine.My legs started to shake, I was on my toes because I wasn't very tall.“I'm going to show you what happens when you do things that don’t, please me” he hit my ass, covered only by my panties.“There” I tried to get up. “Remember what you said earlier, you know you can’t.”Appeal, nervous, and excited.“He also remembers how I am, but he still did what he shouldn't have done” he delivers another slap, with more force.“It was a small mistake, Anthony. Sorry!"“Be silent” snaps angrily. “If not, I’ll take out my anger by fucking you” he warns. “Do you want this, Karen?”I shake my head and close my eyes holding back moans, when he ben
- POV Karen MillerSilence was present in Anthony's room, after that exciting moment in the kitchen, from which I was still recovering, there was now only a strange atmosphere.Anthony closed himself off, which made me uncomfortable, feeling like I had done something wrong. If it were for my little slip, I was at peace because I didn't feel pain anywhere, except my buttocks which were burning from the slaps, but nothing serious.I took the opportunity while I was in the shower to think clearly about whether to tell what happened at the pharmacy.“Aren’t you going to take a shower?” first thing she asked when she came out of the bathroom.“I thought you were going to take me with you” I commented, your attitude was a surprise to me, everything is.“Karen, we talked about this,” he says impatiently. “As long as it’s not good, I’ll avoid it as mu
- POV Anthony Bennet“So, do it” I am surprised by your quick acceptance. “I just ask that you don’t betray me, don’t change, and that you always come home.”"Never!" I can't leave you, you're mine, and what's mine, I'll never let go of, much less betray.“So, I’ll let you make me” laugh, I didn’t know his humorous side, and I confess that I liked it.His laugh brought joy to me, it felt like my sleeping heart wanted to jump out of my chest.“I like you, Karen” She stopped laughing, and her eyes sparkled.“And, I of you” climbed on top of me, to kiss me.As much as I wanted to, I couldn't have her like that, unfortunately, this is not the time. I turned around, covering her with my body, that position was dangerous. Without any rush, I sealed our lips, gently, it was a strange kiss that she would say was affectio
- POV Anthony BennetI look at the clock, 1:18 am, I want to get there early, I need to fuck Karen, it's been two fucking weeks without touching her properly, at least seeing her smile, and hearing her voice. The last time we saw each other was unpleasant, the smell of death was on my body.Things are getting right, I just needed to get back to being active in some work matters, for the Clan to return to the respect and trembling it had before.I throw gasoline on the two men who tried to talk to Karen at the pharmacy, I'm tired of torturing them, and now I want to watch them burn. I light the match and throw it at them, making the game consume their shitty bodiesI dismiss everyone. Time to go home, Karen will have to wake up to satisfy her hungry man, she will inspire me to know exactly what to do with the only Davila, followed by her brother.(...)- POV Karen
- POV Karen Miller"What it was?" I ask.“You like to piss me off!” I remain silent, any word of mine must be cautious. “I told you from the beginning what I like and what I don’t like, Karen. I get home and you're in the company of a fucking man who claims to have an affinity. Don’t test me!”If your words made me angry? No, it didn't hit me at all, nothing bad.“I didn’t think I was going to meet anyone, I was just waiting for you.”“Calming me down with hugs, and sweet words, won’t always work, Karen. I adore you, your body, all of you, but I will not tolerate being lied to.”“Are you implying something, Anthony?”“I know there are lies here, Karen” that had an effect."Where?"“If you don’t tell me, I’ll find out myself” I waver in my eyes. “Don’t hi
- POV AUTHOR NARRATING“You’re going to regret everything you’re saying, Alyssa. I know you have Tânia Mendonça's diary, your grandmother, so you know about these situations. Well, I tell you, Alyssa, if you follow in your grandmother's footsteps you will end up dying, she was worse than Lorenzo, I assure you, no mother does what she did. Tânia died like a monster, but Lorenzo changed for me and especially for you and your brothers. Your father wants the best for you, knowing you. He is choosing to go down the wrong path.”Alba finished her words and left Alyssa's room, feeling in her heart that unfortunately her daughter would not become what she wanted, she was inclined to do what Tânia Mendonça inspired her in her words in the diary. Alyssa would have to learn the hard way.Impatient in his room, Atlas finished getting ready, deciding to go to New York after Luz, his wife. He would use all his rights to have her.Saying goodbye to his parents and Lorena, he noticed the sadness and
- POV AUTHOR NARRATING“Are you going to let me keep it?” it was the first and last time Luz would ask.“Yes” Anthony replied, Karen mumbled softly in annoyance.Luz couldn't believe the answer, she couldn't contain her wide smile.“That makes me happy,” she said emotionally.“Don’t be so happy” Anthony said taking a deep breath. “I still want you to take a pregnancy test and I want the marriage certificate in hand.”Revealing what he had decided, he left them, there was no way to celebrate something he hadn't planned for Luz.Smiling alone, Luz just wanted to kiss Atlas at that moment.“Will accepting it make you hate me less?” Karen asked, even though she was paying lip service, she didn't want to be her beloved daughter's monster again.“I don't hate you, Mother,” said, Luz. “And, I'd rather you not pretend to accept Atlas, I see the hatred in your eyes when I mention his name, and that won't go away so quickly. But I ask that you be polite.”Karen nodded in agreement.“I hope he r
- POV AUTHOR NARRATINGAnthony didn't want to say anything else, he just needed to hear the truth from his daughter and to be sure if he would be a grandfather, he left to meet his family.Alba approached Atlas, searching for her beloved son's shining eyes. She wouldn't question him right then.“Could he still be the prince of Lorraine?” she asked, cupping his face affectionately.“Of course, Mom,” he said, pretending to smile, camouflaging his irritation at being without the Light once again. Alba smiled, but she knew him. Lorenzo sat on the couch just watching. “Don’t be mad at Dad, Mom. He didn’t put any ideas in my head, much less help, I mean just a little.”Atlas stepped to Lorenzo.“Hard to believe,” said Alba in a serious tone. “Go meet your sisters, but we’ll talk later. Just answer me just one question for now. Do you love the Bennets' daughter? Or are you just in love with her?”Atlas was thinking, he didn't understand much about feelings.“I’m still figuring it out, Mom. B
- POV AUTHOR NARRATINGLuz was the one who intervened, paralyzing Anthony, and everyone who heard the absurd revelation she had said.“I’m going to kill you, Atlas, son of a bitch!”Anthony roared, suddenly shooting towards the blonde, no one could react to that, as they were processing the situation.Luz let out an astonished scream. Luckily, Anthony didn't aim at Atlas, resulting in everything, despite the hatred, Anthony deep down wouldn't kill the boy.The only sensible thinker amid that chaos was Alba, who, despite being full of anger and wanting to kill the Bennet couple, stopped Lorenzo from shooting Anthony, and stood in front of her son and Luz, who was crying.“Stop now!” said Alba after taking a deep breath, thinking about Luz and the baby she was carrying in her womb. “If this discussion continues, what her daughter, Bennet, just revealed could happen. She is pregnant…"“Because of the son of a…”Anthony was interrupted by Alba, after receiving a death glare from an irate
- POV AUTHOR NARRATING“Light, try to stay strong. I’ll have to call someone from your family,” Alyssa said worriedly, holding her hand.“Atlas...” Luz whispered, he wanted it.Alyssa quickly left to get help. Luz continued to bend over, enduring all that agony.“She's pregnant with the blonde show-off” she heard the soldier whisper. Standing up a little she faced him, noticing the evil expression on his face, she felt scared.“Keep your mouth closed, that’s an order,” he said firmly, camouflaging his fear. The soldier looked in the direction of the hall, they were far away. “Don’t come any closer!”Luz said, seeing her take steps closer to her.“You are very beautiful” he whispered, lifting her face and cupping her chin. Luz expected to vomit on him, as she had no shortage of desire, but there was nothing left to come out. “I wanted a chance, I can take over this baby. From what your father told me, he feels like killing the blonde, and he likes me... he trusted his life in my hands.
- POV AUTHOR NARRATINGAlba, as a good hostess, took a deep breath, after greeting Ninna, she went to meet the Bennet family.“It’s good to see you all here,” said Alba smiling. “Karen.”She looked at her, Karen didn't like acting like this, but her impulses were stronger.“Alba,” said without giving a damn about being there.Bennet was the one who greeted her decently. Luz, realizing this whole situation, was ready to respond.“It’s good to be here, Mrs. King. This place is beautiful, I imagine what the farm must be like in daylight” she said, charming Alba with her spontaneous manner."It's really beautiful. Call me by name, dear” said Alba smiling. “Are you the firstborn?”Luz shook her head, grimacing.“Where is the birthday girl?” she asked, eager to see Lorena.“Soon she will enter with her prince and king,” he said with a wink. Luz assessed her and admired her, Atlas had some of his mother's features, and Alyssa had inherited all her beauty.“Can I date your daughter?” asked No
- POV AUTHOR NARRATING“Eager to meet Luz,” she said, although she was a little jealous, she loved Atlas.“She is likely to come today. But I don’t know what the situation will be like” said Alyssa thoughtfully, she felt that something bad would happen, thus worrying Lorena that she wanted her birthday to be perfect. “I’m sure nothing will happen, nothing but her wonderful birthday, little sister.”Lorena smiled anxiously.“Are you still with Mário Rivera?” she asked about her sister's lover.“Lorena, keep your voice down. Dad might be around” Alyssa said nervously. Mário Rivera is one of Lorenzo's partners, a young man in good shape, who is in love with Alyssa. Lorena apologized. “He wants to marry me.”“Is he going to ask Daddy?” Lorena asked she didn't like Mário, she thought he was strange, he wasn't trustworthy."Of course! It will all be hidden” said Alyssa smiling, happy with the proposal, she could finally be in charge of a big business.“This is all because you want to have p
- POV AUTHOR NARRATING“Do you want to be fucked by your husband?” he asked, he liked to refer to each other that way "Husband and Wife".“I wanted to,” he said, wrapping his arms around Atlas' neck, brushing his lips with his own.“Unfortunately, your grandmother doesn't want that,” he said, moving her away a little, he kneaded her breasts with his long fingers, resisting the urge to bite them. “I need to respect your grandmother, we are at your parents’ house.”He put the nightgown on her, and guided her to the armchair, the soup should already be ready to be eaten.Luz remained silent and just let her thoughts work, processing the blonde's attitude, he had honor and despite the situation, he respected her parents and her family.Atlas gladly fed her, demanding that she eat everything. As soon as the two lay down, he was careful not to let himself be dominated by the desire of his flesh, he had the right to possess her, but he restrained himself as best he could to show in this smal
- POV AUTHOR NARRATING“Did you have the courage to ask for your cousin’s hand?!” she whispered without realizing the “nonsense” she was saying around Fernanda."What do you mean?" Fernanda asked. Derek, who was suspicious of his cousins' affair, remained silent.“It’s none of my business,” said Atlas. Hearing the noise coming from the main door, Fernanda despaired, Atlas, already close to the stairs, carefully and quickly began to climb the steps.Atlas walked down the hallway calmly, inside of him, part of him wanted to be seen, for the whole situation to end. Revenge wasn't so important anymore, he wanted Luz and the baby.Luz, seeing her father arriving, decided to go downstairs to find out what could have happened. When she opened the door, she had the wonderful surprise of finding Atlas who was beginning to get irritated for not having found his wife's room the first time.“Atlas” heard the whisper of the Light.He turned towards her and smiled at finally seeing her, Luz quickly
