After being accused of killing her father, Catalina Gomez proves her innocence of the crime. She thinks everything will be back to normal. But as soon as she comes out of hell, her world is shattered by her adopted sister and husband’s betrayal. Her life became ‘one against the world’. She lost everything... Everything. Everyone knew her as a murderer. Everyone insulted and pointed fingers at her. Everyone looked at her with disgust. But one man stands behind her and changes everything. Dante Marcellos… when did you become my new husband? Between love and lie… the truth unfolds. Will her heart be prepared for this?
View MoreCATALINA“No. He will kill me.”Ralph's firm remarks echoed in my head.I arched my brow. “You should think of me killing you first.”“He's scarier than you!”“I know, but…” I rolled my eyes as I didn’t know what to say next.“Are you not scared of him?”His query made me scoff. “I am, but…” but I am eager to find that asshole.Ralph raises his hands in the air as if surrendering from this conversation. “The end.” I only let out a deep sigh, annoyed by choosing this guy over someone else to ask for help. Well, I have no one else, and obviously, he's the only one in my contact list that I can approach about this. I thought he was reliable.Frustrated, I snatched Ralph’s iced tea, which he was about to drink. I paid for this, though.He rolled his eyes and crossed his arms, leaning his back on his chair, and did not fight back to save his iced tea from me.I glance at my phone on the table. Dante hasn't left any messages. What would I expect? He will say sorry and agree to my request
CATALINA “Ma'am, we have to go back.” A trace of tension can be heard in Abby's voice. She showed me her phone, where Dante’s name was plastered on the screen. He’s calling me nonstop as well, but I totally ignored it and ended up turning off my phone.I looked away as I leaned back in my seat, patiently seated here at the station, waiting for the captain to return from their job.“Ignore him.”“But–” “Abby, I want to know who that guy is and what he means by ‘he was paid to hurt me.’ The guy who tried to harm me was dead in England. Then who was that earlier?” I snatch her phone and turn it off. “I'm going to wait for those officers to come back.”I won't leave without knowing who that f*cking man is. If he has done something bad to me before, at least I should know about it. Abby did not argue with me anymore, but one of the bodyguards' phones started ringing. He looked at me after checking who was calling. I know for sure that was Dante.“Don't you dare answer it.”“They will
CATALINAThe sun beat down relentlessly as I got out of the car. I was an hour late for work because Dante did not wake me up. As soon as I arrived in his office, the happenings from yesterday flashed through my mind for a second. Damn, it made me feel hot all of a sudden.I cleared my throat when Dante raised his gaze at me. “What's the update about the intruder?” I asked as I stood in front of his table, where he completely devoured my–“Why are you asking?”I cleared my throat and tried to focus on my real intention in barging into his office.“I just want to know. I'm the victim here.” “He's in jail,” he said, uninterested.I fidgeted with my fingers behind me, annoyed that it seemed he was not even worried. “Really? Which jail?”He suddenly halted signing the paper and paused for a few seconds before letting out a deep sigh.“You can't meet him.” He stood up and exited his office.I followed him like a puppy. “Why?”“Police protocols.”He handed a document to his secretary i
CATALINA I turned back on the machine as I closed the door. I know I won't hurt any civilians because both sides of the road are closed. Some of the officers tried to stop me, but I only ran over them, causing them to step aside and watch me move in Fiona’s direction.It amazes me that she did not move an inch and instead sent me those piercing glares.“NO!” She angrily screamed.No?With a sigh, I pulled the left lever up to extend the dipper away from me and was about to move the bucket, but I stopped.Not the pretty building. A familiar pink Porsche parked beside her building caught my attention. Seeing that car made me sick. Instead of aiming at her building, I turned the machine, and without warning, I lowered the bucket to the car, crashing the roof of her poor Porsche. “MY CAR!” Fiona cried out.“Silly! That's not even yours. My dad bought that with his own money, duh!”“I'M GOING TO SUE YOU!”Jeez! She's so loud.I move the machine again and this time, I’m aiming at her. He
CATALINA“B-But we were in the office–Ahh!” I immediately covered my mouth and threw back my head as he devoured my flesh down there without warning. He splits my legs even more before throwing both my legs over his shoulders to get easy access to my bud.I was already breathing heavily while biting my lip, refraining from creating a noise. Anxiety and pleasure collided in me. I didn't expect him to do this in his office. I arch my back and grip the desk when his tongue licks my sensitive spot with soft devotion. “Ahh, shit…”As his tongue split my slit and worked past my pussy's throbbing hole up to the knob of my clit, I moaned in excitement and grabbed the back of his head, pulling him deeper into my pussy. He stops in my clit, and flicks it a couple of times with his tongue and sucks on it. Never once did he stop flicking it with his tongue. Now I'm excited, and moans escalate in the whole room.“God, Dante!” He knew where the right spot was.My nails dug into his head as I tr
CATALINA “Sorry to disappoint you, but I do not wish to fulfill your needs.” I turned my back on him, but he blocked my way.“I need you to help your father’s company. About the five billion debt.”I scoffed. “The audacity.”“Remember that it was your father who borrowed that money. Not us.”His tone suggests that he is not grateful enough to my father for accepting him into our family, for climbing the social ladder without any effort, for getting a higher position in the company, and for earning millions.Is he not happy with his life now, or is he just greedy and wanting more until he reaches a higher place than heaven?“Since my father borrowed that money, why don't you give the company back to me? I will willingly resolve all the problems without troubling you or anyone.”His jaw clenched as he let out an exasperated sigh. “I told you Fiona already owned the company and all the assets. I have no control–”“Are you sure?” “I'm sure–” “That you have no control over everything?”
CATALINA“Are you an employee here?” Was the first thing I asked, ignoring these weird feelings, seeing his unknown presence.He did not respond. He remained standing, watching me a few feet away. An intruder.His unusual attire gives me the vibe of someone who has bad intentions.I took a glance at my hand as I secretly redialed Dante.Why is he not answering?A gasp left my mouth when he took out a silver pipe from behind him and started hitting the wall slowly. A slow and sinister thud against the wall and the pipe echoed in the hallway, frightening my whole system. This is not good.“What do you want?” I maintain my composure, not to give him a hint of being frightened.Still, no words came out of him. Instead, he steps forward, causing me to step back. My head pounded with tension as he continued to approach me slowly, and I took a step back from him.I can smell danger from here.All of a sudden, he charged towards me. Adrenaline rushed through me, and I ran to the staircase
CATALINA For two days, I couldn’t help but keep remembering my mom. The day she left us without saying goodbye to me. The day I desperately chased her car, eager to come to her and hug her tightly. The day… I started to hate her.She did not even contact me after the hell I had experienced when Dad died. She’s a horrible mother that I wish not to meet for the rest of my life.I stopped contacting Mrs. Yu because I kept remembering Mom through her.As soon as I exited the elevator, Dante pulled me into his arms, claiming my mouth unexpectedly. I hold his cheek and distance his face from mine.“We're in the office.”He grinned playfully. “I don't mind.” His hands cupped the cheek of my ass, causing me to slap his arm and gaze around.“Behave,” I hissed.“Yes, ma’am.” He kisses my forehead and walks into his office with a smirk.He's becoming like Ralph these days. His mischievous nature comes out when it comes to dirty stuff.Daisy was working on the computer when I entered my office
CATALINA My hatred for James grew as I stared at the picture of us in one of the articles. It was during our wedding day and some of the photographs were publicized. I was shining brightly as if I had won a lottery at that wedding. The smile says it all. No wonder Dante hates it.And I hate it.I hate the fact that I was so happy and innocent at that time, failed to notice the red flag, and failed to spot what was real and fake. I was just too young, dumb, and free at twenty-three.Reminiscing about the wrong choice I made by reading the articles that Dante had talked about last night made me sick. How could James pull off such great acting? He’s so good at making people believe him.I turned off my phone because the more I stared at James's face, the uglier he became.A loud bang from the door made me flinch. But Dante did not even budge, cuddling behind me. It’s so early for Yvette to bang at the door as if he and Ralph were born on the same day.She kept calling us behind the doo
CATALINA ‘The number you have dialed is out of coverage area. Please try–’I press the end button and throw my phone on the table with a sigh. Only five minutes are left before midnight, and James, my husband, is still not home. He wasn't answering his phone earlier, and now it seems his phone was turned off."Is he that busy?"Or... Did he forget it?My heart throbbed as my thumb played with my wedding ring. It was our wedding anniversary, but he didn't greet me. I was disappointed when I woke up this morning without him by my side.Tears welled up in my eyes as I stared down at the three pregnancy kits placed on the table. Yeah, it has two lines… It's positive… I'm pregnant. But I don't know how to tell James. We didn't talk for a week because we had a misunderstanding. My fingers fidgeted as the word ‘mother’ kept rummaging in my head. My mother left me when I was 8, and now... I'm becoming one.Will James be glad about it? He will, right? I will become a good, I mean, great moth...
