Maria pressed her back against a burning wall, her breaths sharp and uneven. The explosion had knocked her off balance, the shockwave still rattling in her chest. Smoke stung her eyes, and the heat pressed against her skin, but she had no time to recover.

Beside her, Gerald gritted his teeth, his face pale. Blood seeped through his sleeve, staining his grip on the gun, but his fingers didn’t waver.

“They’re coming,” he coughed, spitting blood onto the dirt.

Maria stole a glance around the corner. Shadows moved through the thick smoke, Xavier’s men, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Her stomach tightened.

“They’re setting up for an ambush,” she muttered. “We need to move.”

Gerald gave a short nod, wincing. “You go first. I’ll cover.”

She hesitated for half a second. He was hurt, but staying put meant death.

Maria inhaled sharply. “On three.”

He raised his gun, steady despite his injury. “One.”

Maria adjusted her grip, muscles tensing. “Two.”

The moment “three” left her

  • Sinful Desires   The Ghost Within

    A while ago.....The compound was silent, but Thomas felt the weight of a thousand unseen eyes. He moved through the darkened halls, his footsteps light and his breaths steady. Outside, the cool night air carried the distant hum of guards on patrol, their voices low, unaware of the traitor in their midst. His fingers moved over the keyboard in the security room, lines of code flashing on the screen. He disabled key sniper nests, small changes in the system that would create crucial blind spots. Just enough to make a difference—but not enough to raise suspicion. A few seconds here, a flicker in the power grid there. A soft buzz filled his ear. The radio. He pressed it closer. “Sector three clear,” a guard reported. Thomas adjusted his stance, his voice calm. “Copy that. Keep eyes on the perimeter.” His own misdirections had already sent the guards away from where Victor’s men would soon make their move. The breach was coming, and he was paving the way. Then, an explosio

    Xavier stood by the wide glass window of his office, watching the chaos below. Smoke curled into the night sky, the distant echoes of gunfire and explosions shaking the ground. Victor was tearing through his defenses faster than expected. But Xavier wasn't worried. Not yet. He turned away, adjusting the cuffs of his bloodstained shirt, and walked to the desk where a radio lay. He pressed a button, his voice calm. "Move the boy to the helipad. Now." A crackle of static. Then a voice replied, "Understood, boss." Xavier exhaled slowly, a smirk playing at his lips. If Victor wanted his son, he'd have to come to him. And when he did, Xavier would be waiting. The night was young. And the game was just beginning. "Sir?" One of his men appeared at the doorway, gun in hand, sweat dripping down his face. "Victor's men have breached the east wall. They're coming fast." Xavier didn't even blink. "Let them come." His fingers traced the edge of his desk. "They're playing exactly how

    Selena sat on the cold floor, her back against the damp wall of her cell. Blood dried on her split lip, her wrists raw from the tight restraints they had finally removed. The guards hadn't spoken much, but she didn't need words to know what was coming. Xavier wasn't keeping her alive out of mercy. He had a plan. She exhaled slowly, forcing herself to focus. Panic wouldn't help. If there was a way out, she had to find it. Her fingers traced the rough wall behind her, searching for any loose stone, any weakness. There had to be something. "Think, Selena," she whispered to herself. "Think." Footsteps echoed down the hall. Heavy boots. Armed men. Selena quickly wiped the tears from her cheeks and straightened her back. She wouldn't let them see her broken. The door creaked open, and one of Xavier's men stepped inside. He smirked. "Still got fight in you?" Selena met his eyes, refusing to flinch. "You're wasting your time. Xavier already got what he wanted." The man chuckle

    On the rooftop, Xavier stood near his helicopter, his sharp eyes scanning the compound below. The night sky was thick with smoke, gunfire echoing from the battle raging outside. Victor's men were pushing forward. It was only a matter of time before they broke through. He turned to his pilot. "Stay ready." "Yes, sir." The pilot's hands hovered over the controls, ready for instant takeoff. But Xavier wasn't leaving yet. The best games always had a final act. "Bring the boy," he ordered into his radio. Moments later, Miguel was dragged onto the helipad. His small wrists were cuffed, his face streaked with dirt, but his eyes blazed with anger despite his situation. Children were funny beings. "Can you hear it?" Xavier asked, gesturing to the sounds of battle below. "That's your father, fighting to reach you." He smiled coldly. "He won't make it in time." "I may not know my dad." Miguel said, his voice trembling slightly. "My mom would never marry a loser, miss lilly said so.

    Jordan's body felt like it was on fire. Days of torture had left him weak, his vision blurry. But he wasn't done yet. Not by a long shot. He had been working on the rope binding his wrists for long, rubbing it against a sharp edge of the metal chair. When it finally snapped, he had almost cried out in relief. But he stayed quiet. Waiting and bidding his time. The guard outside his cell was getting more tense. Jordan could see it in the way the man kept checking his watch, the way he paced back and forth. Worried because from the gunshots sounds out, things seemed grim. "Hey," Jordan called out, his voice cracking. "I think... I think I'm dying. Please..." The guard peered through the small window in the door. "Shut up." "There's blood... everywhere," Jordan whispered, letting his head loll forward. "Xavier will kill you if I die before he's done with me." That got the guard's attention. The door creaked open, and a beam of light cut through the darkness. "What the hell are you

  • Sinful Desires   Xavier

    Xavier's eyes darted between screens in the surveillance room. His empire was seriously crumbling around him, and Victor was at the center of it all. "Sir, we need to evacuate now," the man beside urged again for the fifth time. Xavier ignored him, transfixed by the image of Victor cutting through his defenses like they were nothing. The man moved with deadly precision, his face a mask of cold fury. Every shot found its mark. Every man who stood in his way fell. If he wasn't coming for his head, Xavier would've been amazed. "Sir! Please!" Xavier finally tore his eyes away from the screen. "Get the helicopter ready. Same with the boy." Across the mansion, Thomas pressed himself against a wall, listening intently to his radio. Victor's voice crackled through. "Where's my son?" Thomas glanced around the corner. Two guards were dragging Miguel toward the stairwell leading to the roof. "They're taking him to the helipad," Thomas whispered into the radio. "East stairwell. Hurry, Vic

  • Sinful Desires   Jordan!

    Jordan stumbled out of the cell, his body screaming with every movement. His face was swollen, dried blood caking his eyebrow. But he was free. And he had a gun. A swollen eye also. Freedom didn't last long. Two guards rounded the corner, their eyes widening at the sight of him. "Hey!" one shouted, reaching for his weapon. Jordan didn't give him time. His body might be broken, but his instincts were sharp as ever. He lunged forward, ignoring the pain tearing through his ribs. "Surprise motherfucker!," he growled, smashing the butt of his gun into the first guard's face. The man's nose crunched under the impact. Blood sprayed across the wall. The second guard managed to pull his gun halfway out of its holster before Jordan tackled him. They crashed to the floor together, Jordan using his body weight to pin the larger man down. "Stay the fuck down!" Jordan hissed, struggling to keep control. The guard bucked underneath him, throwing Jordan off balance. A fist connecte

  • Sinful Desires   Thomas X Miguel

    Miguel huddled in the corner of the dark closet, his small body trembling. The men had shoved him in here after rushing through the hallways. Something about gunfire on the lower levels had made them pause."Stay quiet or I'll shut you up myself," one of them had growled before slamming the door.Miguel pulled his knees to his chest, trying to stop the tears. He wanted his mommy. He wanted to go home.Outside, he heard the men arguing."Santiago was supposed to meet us here," the first guard said. "We can't move the kid without backup.""Xavier wants him on that helicopter now!" the second guard snapped."You wanna walk through a firefight carrying a screaming kid? Be my guest."Heavy footsteps approached. Miguel held his breath."Where's Santiago?" a new voice asked.Miguel recognized it. Thomas. One of Uncle Xavier's men who sometimes brought him food. He wasn't as mean as the others."Don't know. He's not answering his radio," the first guard replied. "We're waiting for—"A sudden

  • Sinful Desires   One Year Later

    One Year Later "The shipment arrives tomorrow," Selena announced, closing her laptop. The leadership meeting had gone smoothly - far smoother than when she'd first joined. Victor nodded from the head of the table. "Any concerns?" "None. Our new route is secure." Selena's efficiency had transformed their operation. Profits were up forty percent, and losses were down to almost nothing. After the meeting, they walked together through the warehouse. Workers nodded respectfully - not just to Victor now, but to Selena too. "Remember when half of them wanted you gone?" Victor asked quietly. Selena smiled. "Now they know better." It wasn't just their operation that had grown. Their reputation had spread. Three smaller cartels had sought protection under their banner. Two rivals had proposed alliances. That night at dinner, Jordan reported that the Fuentes cartel - once their biggest competition - wanted to meet. "They're scared," Jordan said with a grin. "Their boss actually said he'd

  • Sinful Desires   Jordan And Maria's Tease

    Maria caught the bouquet with a look of pure horror on her face. Jordan howled with laughter from where he stood with the other men. "It's a sign, baby!" he called out, his voice carrying across the garden. "The universe is saying we're next!" Maria's cheeks flamed red. "Shut your mouth, Jordan!" Later, as the dancing continued, Jordan cornered Maria by the champagne fountain. His tie was loose, and his grin was wide. "So I've been thinking," he started. Maria groaned. "That's never good." "We could do Vegas. Quick and dirty." He waggled his eyebrows. "I want our first time to be epic." "Jordan!" Maria hissed, checking if anyone heard. "No? Okay, how about underwater? I know a guy with a submarine." Maria stared at him. "Are you drunk?" "On love, baby." Jordan laughed, then dodged the punch she threw at his arm. "Okay, okay. How about a ceremony on motorcycles? We say our vows while doing wheelies." "I will stab you," Maria said sweetly. "In your sleep." Jordan leaned close

  • Sinful Desires   The Wedding

    The garden sparkled under the afternoon sun. White roses and black lilies lined the aisle - a perfect blend of light and darkness, just like their love story.Victor stood at the altar, his heart beating faster than it had during any gunfight despite it being his second wedding. Jordan stood beside him as best man, fidgeting with his tie and muttering curses under his breath."Stop moving," Victor hissed. "You're making me nervous."Jordan smirked. "You? Nervous? The great Victor Reis?""Shut up."The music changed, and Miguel appeared at the end of the aisle. His little face serious with responsibility as he carried the rings on a black velvet pillow. The guests smiled as he walked carefully, concentrating on not dropping his precious cargo.Then everyone stood. And Victor forgot how to breathe.Selena appeared in a black dress that hugged her curves before flowing out like smoke around her feet. Not white - never white. White was for innocence they'd lost long ago. Black was honest.

  • Sinful Desires   Final Loose Ends

    The warehouse was cold and dimly lit. Victor stood at the head of the long table, Selena at his side. Around them sat the twelve lieutenants who controlled different aspects of the business, even when Xavier took over.All men. All watching Selena with expressions ranging from curiosity to open hostility."Gentlemen," Victor said, his voice carrying in the cavernous space. "I've called you here to introduce the newest member of our leadership." He placed his hand on the small of Selena's back. "My fiancée, Selena Vasquez."Murmurs rippled around the table. One man—Ramirez, one of the older lieutenants—scoffed audibly."With all due respect, boss," Ramirez said, his tone suggesting no respect at all, "what does she know about our business?"Victor's expression hardened, but before he could speak, Selena stepped forward."I was Xavier's prisoner for five years," she said calmly. "I know every connection he had. Every supplier. Every corrupt official on his payroll." Her eyes locked with

  • Sinful Desires   Miguel's Joy

    Miguel's eyes were wide as dinner plates when Victor told him the news."Mom's staying? Forever?" The boy could barely stay in his chair, bouncing with excitement.Victor's heart felt too big for his chest. "If that's okay with you.""Yes! Yes! Yes!" Miguel punched the air with each word, then froze suddenly. "Does this mean you and Mom are getting married?""It does." Victor ruffled his son's hair. "How do you feel about that?"Instead of answering, Miguel bolted from the room, returning moments later with a crumpled piece of paper. He smoothed it out carefully before handing it to Victor.It was a drawing, clearly made weeks ago. Three stick figures stood hand in hand in front of a house: a tall one labeled "Dad," a smaller one labeled "Me," and a medium one labeled "Mom.""I drew this before," Miguel said softly. "When I wished really hard."Victor swallowed the lump in his throat. "Looks like your wish came true, kiddo."That evening, they had dinner together—their first real fami

  • Sinful Desires   The Proposal

    Three days after the bus station, Victor drove Selena up the winding road to the cliffs. Neither spoke much during the drive. The radio played softly between them, filling the silence with old songs they both remembered.Selena stared out the window, watching the city fall away beneath them. "I remember this road," she said quietly.Victor's hands tightened on the steering wheel. "I hoped you would."The overlook hadn't changed. The same weathered wooden bench still faced the ocean. The same wind still carried the scent of salt water. It was here, ten years ago, where they'd first admitted they loved each other.Victor parked the car and came around to open her door. The gesture felt both familiar and strange—a habit from their past life together.They walked to the bench, keeping a careful distance between them. The sun was setting, painting the sky in shades of orange and pink."Miguel asked about you this morning," Victor said, breaking the silence. "Wanted to know if you liked the

    Without thinking, he slammed his fist against the side of the bus, the sound echoing through the station."Selena Vasquez!" he shouted. "I know you can hear me!"Heads turned. People stared. Security guards started moving his way.Victor didn't care. "Five years, Selena! Five years I've been an idiot! Don't make me waste another day!"He saw her freeze halfway down the aisle of the bus."Sir," a security guard approached him, hand on his radio. "I'm going to need you to calm down."Victor ignored him, eyes locked on Selena through the window. "I know everything now! I know what you did for Miguel! What you did for me!"You spared me the pain of losing a son, even though it was at the expense of my life.Selena turned slowly, her face visible through the window. Their eyes met."I read the letters!" Victor continued, his voice cracking. "Every single one! I know you never stopped loving me, even after everything you did."More security guards were approaching. Passengers had stopped to

  • Sinful Desires   The Chase

    Victor hadn't slept in two days. Dark circles rimmed his eyes as he paced the floor of his command center."Tell me again," he demanded, voice rough from too much coffee and not enough rest.Gerald pointed to the map spread across the table. Red pins marked locations across the city."She's been moving carefully. One motel to the next." Gerald tapped the pins in sequence. "Never stays more than one night. Pays cash. Uses different names."Victor leaned closer, studying the pattern. "She's zigzagging.""Smart move," Gerald admitted. "Makes her harder to track.""But there's a pattern." Victor traced the route with his finger. "She's working her way toward the coast. Small steps, but always moving in the same general direction."Maria, who had been quiet until now, stepped forward. "She's planning to leave the country."Victor's jaw tightened. "She thinks she needs to run that far?""Not just that," Gerald said softly. "Think about it. Xavier had connections everywhere. She knows some o

  • Sinful Desires   The Hidden Évidence

    Victor barely slept that night. By morning, his mind was made up. He would find Selena and bring her home, whatever it took."Gerald," Victor called, stepping into his office where his right-hand man was already working. "I need everything we have on Xavier and Selena. Every file, every report."Gerald raised an eyebrow but didn't question him. "Give me an hour."True to his word, Gerald returned with several boxes of files. "This is everything, boss."Victor dove into the papers like a man possessed. Hours passed as he pieced together the fragments of Selena's life with Xavier. What he found made him sick to his stomach.Medical records. So many medical records."Three broken ribs... facial contusions... fractured wrist," Victor read aloud, his voice growing hoarser with each injury. These weren't from one incident but spread across years. Each time with the same excuse—"Fell down stairs" or "Kitchen accident."And the dates. Victor noticed a pattern. The worst injuries came shortly
