"Who the fuck are you?" The small figured man with his dirty blonde hair cut into a boyband type of style tries to act tough even though he is bound to a chair in the middle of a storage unit on the outer part of the resort where no guests are allowed and no one would hear him scream when I start to strip away his life tissue by tissue. "You don't know who you are messing with." He continues to threaten me and Achille as we stood to the side waiting for Achilles's new companion to bring the piece of scum that actually pulled the trigger that launched the bullet into Angela. "100 Dollars he screeches first." Achilles chuckles trying to make a bet that would ensure he wins. Of course, he will start talking first. He isn't a part of this long enough to comprehend what he got himself into. He will take the easiest way out, but that doesn't mean that we are not going to have fun first."Too easy..." I shake my head. "100 Dollars says I can make him yell like a little bitch even before firs

"Thank you for doing this." Mia round the corner of the kitchen entrance with an empty glass in her hand, she scan across the room, she was referring to me cleaning the kitchen. "Join me." I invite her to sit on the opposite side of the table from where I was sitting, appreciating a well-deserved espresso while scrolling through the emails on my phone, but I quickly exit placing the phone face down on the table to be able to give all my attention to Mia. I needed to have a very important conversation with her and I am afraid if she stood or sat, for that matter, too close to me I will easily be distracted and we needed to have a lightheaded and serious discussion of what we were doing and what we wanted from each other. "I expected that much." She grins planting her little ass down on the wooden chair on the other side of the table and placing the glass next to a second bottle of wine and although I would much rather not open the bottle I go against my own desire and pick it up to d

"Damian." Mia breathe looking at me from under her lashes as she opens the white-laced box on the foot and end of the bed. "This is gorgeous." She holds up the emerald-colored designer dress in front of her inspecting every detail, her eyes that match the dress so generously tell me that she loves it. "This must have cost a fortune." She gently hugs it to her body mouthing a silent 'thank you' my way. "Of course." I admire her expectations for the little things. "There is one more thing." I tread carefully knowing that we had this conversation once before and it didn't go down as easily as I have hoped. I hand her a small package containing a new cellphone and the look in her gaze immediately changes."We spoke about this." She warns."I know, but before you decline. I spoke to your dad and he agrees that this phone might be a better choice for you.""Damian." She grits through her teeth. "I need you to stop buying me things, please!

"Antonio." I greet the man responsible for the completion of the hotel. "You have outdone yourself." I compliment him shaking his hand the process. "Thank you, Ben. It was no without its own challenges." He reminds me. "Oh... I know." I chuckle. "Miss Mia." He divert his attention to my beautiful guest that is accompanying me. "You look lovely." He compliments her kissing past both her cheeks. "You can call me Mia." She blushes a little. "This place looks amazing. You really did an amazing job." Her eyes scroll over the white sparkling tiles where the last time blood spills stained them. "Thank you, Mia." He nods appreciating her kind words. "They are waiting for you to cut the ribbon outside." He reminds me of the little tradition that goes back decades. "I will join my parents, while you do your thing." Mia pulls out her arm from mine, but I was faster and promptly grab onto her arm lugging her closer and then cape my arm around her lower back. "Oh no..." I gently place my

"Can I have this dance?" I interrupt Mia and a lady deep in an exchange of words. "Hello." I greet the older woman that had my girl's attention so closely. "Benvenuto." I take her hand into mine and leave a quick peck on the dorsal part of her hand. "Do you mind if I steal her for a moment?" I question, but don't wait for an answer, because the answer didn't matter anyway. I take Mia's hand and tug her gently towards me before leading her onto the dance floor."Who was that?" I question Mia who doesn't seem to be talking to me, still. She has been ignoring me since our small assertion in the hotel room and it needed to end now. "Mia?" I will her to talk to me as I pull her closely against me and start to move to the rhythm of the classical violin that dominate the song. "What is it to you? Now you want to tell me who I can and cannot talk to?" She roll her eyes at me making my grip on her hand tighter, but she doesn't complain or withdraw her hand from mine. "I was making conversatio

"Thank God you are alive." James breath through a busted open lip wearing the reminder that Ben's fists has already been there, he drag his eyes from the floor towards Mia who stand in front of him in all her glory dressed in an overpriced, but sparkling gown with flat black pump on her feet that she so badly wants to hide from my attention, but already noticed on our drive to the far part of the resort that she changed from her heels to the shoes I brought just for in case her feet got sore or tired. She is breathtaking and fearless in the moment while James seemed relieved that she was alive. "That was also my initial thought." She agrees with him making his shoulders relax a slightly. "I mean... Who wants to die right?" She shrug lifting her hands up in the air facing her palms to the roof keeping it like that for a few seconds. If I died, I mean the things that Mr. Damian would have done to you..." She taunts him and in consequence he let his head hang unable to keep it uoright an

"Shhh..." She drag her finger across the man's lips making him calm down a little at her touch knowing he cannot hear her, but I can bet his auditory sense are sending impulses through his nervous system that will be able to drive a group of people nuts. "I am sorry." James hang his head facing the floor as he start to sob. I knew he was piece of shit and I knew he was a softy, but crying so early on when Mia haven't even started yet... This was just lousy. "About everything..." He continues through his sobs, but it doesn't seem to phase Mia at all. Instead she just continue to walk a round him gradually taking in every sob as defeat and I couldn't move my eyes from her. It was like she was in a world of her own, not minding me or anyone who was just a few kilometers down the street. Where she was supposed to be. A loud scream escape his mouth when Mia drag the dull part of the knife a cross his shoulders, but she quickly return doing the same motion with the other part of the knife

As the soft dawn hues brush against the horizon, I find myself drawn to the kitchen, seeking solace in the familiar routine of making coffee. The previous night has been filled with turmoil, grief, and unexpected moments of connection, leaving me yearning for a moment of calm amidst the storm. As I enter the kitchen, a gentle hush settle over the house, permeating the air with a serenity that seems to hug me in its embrace. I glance around the spotless space, as if the remnants of the chaos from the previous night have been meticulously tidied away or never happened. Achille, the steadfast and caring presence in my life, has made sure that everything is in order before he departed. Job well done. A faint smile curve on my lips as I prepare the coffee, the rich aroma soon filling the kitchen. The rhythmic sounds of the brewing process echoe in the stillness, a gentle symphony that complement the emerging sunlight that starts to flood the room and just as I finish pouring the coffee int

Rather than attempt to keep my burning need for her under control like I know I should or at least to a middle-of-the-roader, I submit myself to it, rather encourage it to be be completely truthful. There is slight gentleness to none left in the kiss we share, but a clear discretion to conquer. My lips press hard against Mia's.My internal struggle, whether to turn her around and fuck her hard, force myself to be gentle with her or push her away is utterly hopeless.I walk her towards the bedroom wall drawing power from her quick and ineffective breaths that clearly indicates how much she wants this. Wants me! I slightly push her away from me, needing to look at her. To make sure she wants this, we stare at one another, both of us taking deep, erratic breaths. Where onetime there was remoteness there is now pain. I yank her from the wall and press her backwards onto the bed before I come out and tear the straps of her shirt, revealing her perfect breasts. She slightly move a way fro

The air droop heavy with despair as my hands rhythmically apply chest compressions to Clarisse's lifeless body. The room is loaded with an eerie silence, broken only by the sound of desperate breaths escaping my lips. I have given everything I have, pouring every ounce of strength into trying to breathe life back into Clarisse when suddenly, something shifts within me. A dreadful realization washes over me, casting a dark shadow upon my trembling heart. I glance at Clarisse's face, her vacant eyes, searching for a glimmer of hope that I know deep down had faded away. It is in this very moment that time seems to stand still for me and a chill crawl up my spine, a heaviness settling in my chest. The room around me becoming a mere backdrop to the overwhelming grief that consume my entire being. The world continue its chaotic dance, yet I feel completely detached from it all and with a shaking hand, I gently press my fingers against Clarisse's motionless wrist. No pulse. No warmth. Only a

The room fall into an eerie silence as Isabelle stand dead quiet, her eyes widened in shock. In her trembling hands, she is holding a gun, aimed directly at me. The weight of the moment drooping heavily in the air, as if time has frozen, and the mere act of breathing seems impossible. Mia's heart pounds loudly in her chest synchronize with mine as the fear for both me and herself course through my veins. In a split second, my instincts kick in and I knew I needed to protect Mia, no matter the cost. With a swift motion, I push her behind me, shielding her from the danger that loom before us. Mia fight against my protective grip, desperate to stand in front of me, to get between her mother and the man she loves."Mama, please, don't do this!" Mia's voice quivere with a mix of fear and desperation. She reach out, tears streaming down her face, longing to connect with her mother's humanity. But I stand firm, my eyes crammed with a combination of judgement and despair. I cannot let Mia ste

Achille's entrance is abrupt, catching me off guard as I release Maya from her pain. My eyes meet Achille's, and in this brief moment, we share an unspoken understanding. Achille approach me, his steps echoing in the room as his gaze never leave Maya's lifeless body lying on the bed. Without a word, Achille places a supportive hand on my shoulder, offering me both physical and emotional strength. We stand side by side, when I break the silence. "She looks so much like Mia, doesn't she?" My voice is filled with a blend of sorrow and recollection, reminding me of the parallel journey we had all been on and he nods, agreeingly, my eyes briefly dart towards him, before returning to the bed where Maya lies."Yes, Ben, she does. Seeing her like this stirs unwanted feelings of Mia, and how she suffered. But Mia is safe now, with Tomasso," he whisper, desperately clinging to the image of hope. Our shared connection deepen as Achille squeezes my shoulder, silently conveying my support and unde

Me, Achille, and Tomasso stand in the concealment of the nearby woods, our breaths masked by the rhythmic rustle of leaves. The time has come to execute our plan to infiltrate the estate where Mia is being held captive. We anxiously watch as my security team move stealthily towards the imposing gates. With the team's well-honed expertise, they approach the perimeter of the estate. Their mission is to disable the security cameras, rendering the enemy blind and creating a clear path for me and my allies to enter undetected. It is a critical moment, one that requires precision and agility.As we approach, the security team divide into smaller groups, each assigned to different sections of the estate's electronic surveillance system. They move swiftly, their movements synchronized like a well-rehearsed dance. Carefully avoiding any motion sensors, they expertly disable the cameras one by one, their actions seamless and silent, while me, Achille, and Tomasso remain still, our hearts poundi

I storm out of Dr. Reynolds' office, my face twisted with anger as I yank open the car door and slam myself inside. Achille, sitting behind the wheel, I imagine, notices my intense demeanorand bracing himself for what's to come. Tomasso, sitting in the backseat, is all too eager to join in the action. "Achille, get everyone ready. We're going on a saving mission. We're bringing Mia home, no matter what it takes." I order my voice mirroring my anger and Achille accustomed to my strong-willed nature, nods with unwavering determination."Understood, Brother. I'll assemble the team right away. We're with you, every step of the way." He nod as he starts to scroll across the screen sending our a broadcast message.Tomasso, unable to contain his excitement, chimes in with a hint of humor and an enormous grin on his face. "Finally, a real adventure! I've been waiting for this moment, Ben. Ready to rescue damsels in distress!"Achille chuckles, realizing the gravity of the situation yet apprec

Achille appears to be very frustrated and determined as he takes a step closer to me as I take in a deep breath in an attempt to get my breathing under control. "Ben, listen. I phoned Manfredio. I had to try to reach Mia, to know if she's safe. But he denied my attempts, he wouldn't let me see her." "Are you out of your fucking mind, Achille? What were you thinking? You've put Mia in danger by contacting Manfredio! How could you do something so reckless?" Anger burst through me and my voice rise as a result. "I know, Ben! I know I took a risk by reaching out to Manfredio. But I had to try! We've exhausted all our options, and I couldn't just sit back and do nothing while Mia is missing." Achilles tries to defend himself taking in a deep breath as he acknowledges my anger."Did he say anything? Is Mia okay?" I question him hopefully. "No, Ben. He didn't say a word about Mia's well-being. But I'm telling you this now so that you know Manfredio might be expecting you. When you do deci

I stand in the crowded and vibrant nightclub's kitchen, music booming in the background when I take out my phone and dials Achille's number. "Ciao, brother. What's up? Why are you calling me when you know it is time for my novela and what is that noise in the background?" His voice ring into the phone laced with some humor. "Brother, you won't believe it, man. I'm at the club, and something incredible has happened. I need your help, and I have some new information to share with you regarding Mia.""Woah, slow down, Ben." He interject. "Take a deep breath and start from the beginning. What happened and are you okay? You sound... Different." Even over the phone Achille notices that I am not one hundred percent completely myself."I can't explain it, Achille. I'm not feeling like myself tonight. It's... It's something I cannot explain." I lie, and poorly at it too."You don't say?" I can hear the judgment in his voice, maybe mixed with some concern. "That's...unexpected. Are you sure ev
