Chapter 3

ALEXANDER

I was just arriving when I saw her, the only reason why I came here with the excuse of doing a master's degree, Isabella Alarcon looking as beautiful as anyone I had ever seen before, somewhat cold and even she looked innocent and fragile, she looked like a fucking angel, something unreachable, who could say that under that angelic appearance was a rotten soul? If I didn't know her past I would be fooled by her beauty, I would want to take her and protect her from this cruel world, but instead I know her so much that I will definitely not be her protector but I am of the person who wants to harm her, who wants to destroy her. But the moment we crossed glances even though I just want to destroy her world as I destroy my little sister's, something about her caught me, it was almost electrifying, those blue eyes enveloped me and I was almost grateful when she withdrew her gaze, I kept watching her until she finally got out of my sight, I had already seen her in pictures but in person she is more impressive with her pale skin, her golden hair with beautiful waves almost reaching her delicious ass, her narrow waist and nice breasts, her angel face with fine features, definitely this girl could drive any man crazy, as much as I hate her I can't fool myself, this girl is a walking danger, so I must be careful and stay focused on my plans.

I have to keep the promise I made as soon as possible and so return to New York, even though I can handle many company matters from here, it's not the same and I don't like this place, I don't know why but it's not my thing, so while the other matters take their course I have to find a way to get closer to Isabella, I don't think it will be that easy because from what I know about her she doesn't like to have a lot of people around her, she keeps everyone at a distance because she surely thinks she is superior to the others, I already want to take her down from her throne to see what she does at the end, when she will have a taste of her own medicine.

When she realizes how fucked up it is to be on the other side, the losing side, I think she will hate it, but this time she won't be able to do anything, because this time we will play by my rules.

Two days had already passed when I saw her again, she was walking in the campus with another girl, she looked more genuine next to her, she was laughing about something the girl said, that smile she had, it almost made my head explode, when I saw her before I didn't believe she could look more beautiful, but it is possible, when she smiles she easily restarts your life, I think many men would kill just to see this woman smile, that smile with perfect white teeth so impressive and beautiful. When she noticed my gaze she froze and her smile diminished, but I decided to approach her anyway, I don't have much time to waste.

"Hi, I'm new here and I'm a little lost, could you tell me where this is?" I asked showing them the paper where it was written where I would see my next class.

I knew perfectly well where it was but any opportunity was good to approach it, after all I want to go back to New York as soon as possible.

They saw it and the other girl, who I understand is called Caroline jumped up and said:

"We are going near there if you want we can go with you."

Isabella looked at her as if she had lost her mind, obviously intending to refuse but before she could I said okay and we started walking over there when her friend spoke.

"My name is Caroline and this is Isabella, and...what's your name?" she asked with a flirtatious smile.

"Alexander, it's a pleasure ladies" I said as I looked towards Isabella with a sideways smile. She just gave a shy nod, trying not to look me in the eyes and I couldn't help but wonder how she hides her true personality so well, she acts so different from what I know about her.

"Well this is it" Caroline said pointing towards a door "see you" she concluded with a smile.

"Thank you ladies" I said looking for Isabella's gaze which again I didn't get as for some reason she kept avoiding mine.

" You're welcome, bye" Caroline replied with a smile taking Isabella's hand to leave.

I just gave her a nod with a smile and watched them go. I would have to find another time to approach her, maybe her friend could help me with that, because Isabella shelters herself very well under her walls, so for today I had no choice but to continue with my class, when I was about to enter the classroom I received a call from my mother.

"Hi mom how are you?" I asked picking up the phone.

"Hi honey, I wanted to see how everything was going over there and how is your sister, are you staying with her these days?" she asked with that soft voice that characterizes her.

"No, she lives with her mother, I just visit her every day but I can't stay with her because I don't want to bother her and she is recovering."

My sister was the daughter of my father and another woman because of which he and my mother separated, that's why I wasn't so close with her but then certain circumstances came about that brought us together and now she needed me and I had to be there for her. My mother did not want me to be here, because I had to take care of the company and she did not like that woman at all, not only because dad left us for her but also because she was not a good person, but in spite of that my mother understood me and respected my decisions, of course she thought that I was only here to support my little sister, without knowing the other reason why I came, it was not necessary for her to know it.

If she knew it she would not have agreed, she would not have allowed me to do something like this, my mom is a very loving person and she would have looked for a way to solve things in a different way.

She would never allow me to seek revenge and even less for something like this, not for my sister and not in this way, not hurting Isabella, my mom would question everything Emma said, that's why it's better that she doesn't know anything, I perfectly understand that my mom can't feel affection for Emma and even distrust her for being the daughter of who she is, but I believe my sister, that girl's father is a demon and he raised her by himself, she can't be much better.

She didn't have a good person as an example, she only had him to teach her that she can do whatever she wants without any consequences, making her believe that the world is hers and she can hurt whoever she wants like him, creating another little monster which brought my sister to the brink of death.

How could he go on knowing what he did? I can't leave them without a punishment, my sister can't let go and leave her past behind until they pay for what they did to her, it's not fair that she continues to live her perfect life while my sister hasn't even been able to enter college because of everything that happened to her. Because she is still affected and even needs psychological help, she has to be at home being monitored all the time so she doesn't make another attempt on her life.

How evil do you have to be to do this to a girl who has done nothing to you? That's why Isabella has to pay for what she did, so she gets to understand that the world is not as her dad described it to her, that there are stronger people who can take revenge for what you did, that you can't go around ruining other people's lives at your whim and I will make sure she understands these two things very well.

"Yes son, you better not stay at his house" he said before asking "When will you be back?"

"I don't know yet, still my sister needs my support, I want to make sure she is recovered before I leave."

"Well okay, hopefully you can come back soon, you know I love you, take good care of yourself."

"I will try, I love you too mom and regards to grandpa."

"Ok son, talk to you later."

"I'll call you tomorrow" after saying this I ended the call and went into my classroom.

Shortly after the teacher came in to explain things that I already knew by heart, I could easily teach this class myself and I would surely do it better, but of course that would have made everything a little more complicated for me, so I just had to come and waste my time to have a good excuse to get closer to Isabella.
