With my face glued to the glass of the bedroom window, I observe the soft rain that decided to give its air of grace precisely on this fateful night, I swallowed a sob that threatened to escape from my chest I hated the rainy weather because it brought back bad memories of my childhood, things that I would like to forget but that unfortunately always came back time and time again, so distracted was I that not feeling it when Nicolas returned it was the firm touch of his hands on my shoulder that brought me back to reality. ____" I brought some clothes and food for you baby It had been almost an hour since Nicolas had put me in a fancy hotel room and left without telling me where he was going and now he was returning with clothes and food, I opened one of the bags and in it there was a set of luxury lingerie from Vitória Secret and a nightgown long silk garment, in addition to jeans and a fur coat, there were also objects for personal use, such as a hairbrush and toothbrush. __"W
When I finished exchanging messages with Amy, sleep had completely disappeared, leaving nothing less than anxiety in its place. When I arrived at the hotel where I had left Amy staying, it wasn't yet six o'clock in the morning, I was supposed to go later but my anxiety didn't allow it, I needed so much to see and this girl is with her, she had become an obsession for me, I unlocked it the door and entered the room, raising my feet well so as not to make any noise and wake Amy who was sleeping peacefully, I approached the huge bed and sat on the edge and watched my girl sleep, her chest rising and falling and her eyes hidden by a golden curtain that was her eyelashes, the slightly open lips invited for a kiss I leaned over the bed getting my face very close to hers her warm breath on my face ,amy moved changing position which forced me to move away ,I grabbed a newspaper from above from a bench and I sat down in an armchair on one side of the bed and I was browsing trying to distract
Murphy once said, ""nothing is so bad that it can't get worse" And he was so right, just when I thought things were bad in my life this happens my best friend, the only person I have in my life dies in front of me, a hiss of pain passes through my throat inert for years at this moment Nicolas comes running into the room stopping midway looking from me to my friend who had just died holding my hand. ___ I'm going to call Doctor Mendonça He ran off again, coming back with a mendonça that seemed calm, he probably already knew this was going to happen, taking the defibrillator, he gave my friend two shocks in the chest, she didn't even move, unfortunately she was gone forever, leaving me here alone. I was silent the whole time, Nicolas took me back to the hotel where he would wait until Daphne's body was released from the funeral home. ___" are you okay Amy? asks Nicolas ___ "How can I be okay Nicolas if the only person I had in this world died?" I felt so empty, it f
I go through the big iron gate of my mansion towards my private garage where I keep my treasures, which are exclusive motorcycles and luxury cars, I have from Ferrari to Lamborghini, BMW and Aston Martin, I even had a limousine that had been an eccentricity of mine and that she almost never used it was only used at important events. I got out of the car and opened the door to the passenger seat I took Amy in my arms she was still unconscious and would be for a few hours I let out a terrible curse that would put even the most experienced hooker to shame I hated that I drugged Amy but it was the only way I could find of bringing her with me she wouldn't come willingly, in the end she would thank me I was saving her life and mine because if something happened to her I couldn't stand it. When I walked into the house with the woman in my arms, Victor and Chloe looked at me like I was crazy. ___ "Is she dead? Asks Chloe in amazement ___"She is sleeping chloe ___ "Wh
I wake up feeling an immense heat and a weight on my ribs that takes the breath away, when I open my eyes I discover the reason for my discomfort Nicolas Montenegro is completely on top of me crushing me with his weight I try to push him off me but he doesn't move a muscle seems to have lead in that body so i have to resort to a painful alternative for nicolas i bite down hard on his neck he lets out a tremendous curse rolling off me.. ___ damn amy you bit me.. I could breathe calmly and sitting on the bed I looked at him totally confused I didn't remember what had happened before I looked at the white walls without knowing where I was, I moved my hands slightly asking: ___"where I am? ___ "In my house amy.. I jumped out of bed staring at Nicolas as if he had gone crazy, it didn't make sense what he was saying. __" what am I doing here? ___" Don't remember anything baby? ___ "not much there are just fragments of memory. I nervously move my hands.. He got up from the
I couldn't sleep at night, my mind fixed on Amy, it hurt to leave her in that filthy basement, but I had to because she was very rebellious and my patience was short, I wanted so much for her to understand that all I was doing was protecting her . I jumped out of bed early, took a cold shower, dressed in an oversized Armani suit, went down to breakfast and mumbled a brief "Good morning" to Chloe and Victor. ___ "What bad mood is this brother? __" It doesn't matter Victor take care of your life ___"I bet the little girl you got isn't satisfying you, trina yes was a real woman. On other days, he would have punched Victor in the mouth, but today he was tired, not even in the mood to answer him, it was Chloe who put him in his place. ___ "Victor arrives because he won't mind his own business instead of disrupting the lives of others? He glared at Chloe but didn't say anything else continued drinking her coffee in silence
I thought I was going to die in that filthy basement, never before had I felt such fear and anguish, when Nicolas took me in his arms and pulled me out of there he automatically became my hero even though I knew he was the one who had imprisoned me there. I got out of bed feeling dizzy I had to sit down again to keep from falling to the floor ___" Amy, are you okay? Nicolas, who had just entered the room, approaches me, bending down to be at my height. __" I'm a little dizzy. I gesture He handed me a glass of water and a pill which I gulped down. ___ "you'll get better soon, now you have to feed He placed a large tray of breakfast on the bed. ___"brought your coffee baby I salivated looking at the delights I was hungry. I took the tray, placing it on my lap and starting to eat, Nicolas sat there watching me eat like a hungry person. __ "do you accept? ___" I already had coffee Amy, finish eating that I need to have a serious conversation with you. After I fin
A meeting had been organized to determine who would be in charge of arms trafficking, my brother and I were in the dispute, I was sure that it would be in my hands because it had a greater number of supporters, but I was surprised when the men who claimed to be loyal to me turned around. their backs and voted in favor of my brother who did not hide his satisfaction. When the meeting ended, I was furious that I had lost control of an important business that would now be with my brother. ___"It's bro, now I'm the one who will deal with arms trafficking to Brazil. __" Shut up Victor don't think it will stay like this. ___ accept losing Nicolas was a fair vote. I ignored him and went to talk to Gregory Lamarte needed him to explain why he had withdrawn his support for me. __ "Gregory, may I know why you and your friends weren't supportive? I thought we were friends A sarcastic laugh escaped his lips as he said: __ "we were friends before you tricked my little girl with a c
Returning home was something strange because for me it was as if I had never been away, everything seemed so the same that I even doubted that 15 years had actually passed. However, I sadly noticed that not everything had survived my absence, many of my men of trust was no longer there, some had left, others had died, just like my mother.Marli Montenegro, the woman who raised me and educated me like a son, was no longer alive and this was one of the greatest pains I felt in my life, I wished I hadn't woken up from the coma.At this moment, sitting on my bed, leaning back against pillows, I observe the boy with dark blond hair and a physical build superior to someone his age. I have a hard time accepting that he is my son, that this teenager with the petulant look is the little package, still covered in blood, that For a few moments I held him in my arms.____ richard, my son....I say to myself____ the legitimate Montenegro....he completesI smiled at the petulant tone in which he s
In the end Richard didn't accompany me to the hospital, alone I walked through the cold corridors of the hospital like a specter, arriving at Nicolas's room I went in and leaned against the door and approaching the bed I stared for several minutes at the pale face of my beloved looking for something to prove that I was right that he was in fact still alive, I carefully adjusted myself in the little space on the bed placing my head on his chest and without me being able to control the tears they began to flow without stoppingAt this moment I felt unable to do anything other than cry.___ I tried my love to be strong all this time but now it's no longer possible, I no longer have the strength to fight, I feel like I'm going to die from so much sadness..The tears like waterfalls continued to fall and fall progressively, just as the sobs one by one jumped from my chest as if they were tearing my soul.I raised my head, looking at him - I held his cold face between my hands, saying firmly
For a brief moment I really believed that Nicolas was awake and that everything would go back to the way it was before, but this obviously didn't happen, he continued to sleep like an angel, I even considered the idea that I had fantasized about that grip on his hand.Unhappy, I took my son in my arms, called a taxi and went home, Chloe and Aníbal's happy laughs greeted me, making my mood even more sour.____amy, come watch with us.. chloe says___ I'm not in the mood____It's a very funny comedy, we're laughing our heads off, you'll like it.____ comedy is enough for my lifeI quickly walked up the stairs with Richard following me and as soon as we walked through the door to my room he asked:.___why are you so sad mom?___ It's nothing son, now go watch television with your uncles...___can I really mom?___ Yes sonHe ran out of the room and I allowed myself to collapse, covering my face with my hands and sobbing convulsively, it seemed impossible to continue at that moment.___may
It was another ordinary and boring day, the sky was clear and the temperature was mild, perfect for a day at the beach. I observe with disinterest the euphoria of Chloe as she places an umbrella, reclining chairs, a Styrofoam box containing food and other junk in the trunk of the car.____ hurry up, Amy, or we'll be very late at the beach...I rolled my eyes at my sister-in-law and getting up from the step where she was sitting, I picked up my belongings and put them in the trunk.The short trip to Praia was filled with the happy and cheerful laughter of the children, as soon as we parked a meter away from the beach they were the first to get out and run happily on the white sand.___do not enter the water richard. I screamed...He turned to me with a smile from ear to ear and at that moment my heart missed a beat and a tear ran down my cheek, it was as if I was seeing Nicolas in front of me, the smile was exactly the same. I noticed that Chloe and Aníbal were watching me, lately they
A week after my terrible discovery, I was discharged and without telling anyone in the family, I left the hospital alone with my son in my arms, oblivious to everything, I walked down the street like a specter and more than once a car slammed on the brakes so as not to run me over and more than once a driver screamed profanity , it felt like my soul had been ripped from my body , when i walked through the gate of the mansion Montenegro chloe ran towards me exasperated___Why didn't you tell me that you would be discharged today, Aníbal or I would have gone to get you.___I didn't want to bother either of you, the days you stayed with me are enough.Chloe looked down at little Richard that I held like a bag of sugar, she took him from my arms and asked next.___where is the taxi you came from?___ I came on foot...___my god Amy are you crazy? I didn't understand that you can't make that much effortI went into the house looking at everything strangely because here it didn't seem like
When I opened my eyes the first thing I saw was the dull, white wall, I tried to get up but feeling dizzy I soon went back to bed and when I looked around the room I realized that it was a hospital room, I automatically put my hand on my stomach stoned.___my son....At this chloe came through the bedroom door with a pitcher of water that she placed on the nightstand next to the bed___Your son is fine, he's a huge boy,..A smile played on my lips, knowing that my baby was fine made me feel at ease..___Do you want water Amy?I shook my head, my throat and lips felt dry, Chloe filled a glass and handed it to me, I turned around asking for more, satisfied I lay back down, everything seemed to go round and round.A flashback crossed my mind and I saw myself in that forest alone screaming while expelling my little Richard from my body, hearing the voice of my beloved Nicolas again.___Nicolas....Chloe looked at me for a long time and in that time I could see a lot of pain in that look..
When I imagined myself coming on this endeavor in search of Amy, I didn't imagine that things would be the way they were, I had in mind that deaths would happen, something I was already more than used to seeing, in this dangerous world I was born, death was a necessary evil, some would have to die for others to be born, my father old Richard had taught me this when I was still a six year old girl, at this moment when I look at little Richard, my nephew huddled in my arms crying as if there was no tomorrow I wonder if this would be fair, two die and only one is born, what would become of him without his parents?What would become of me if one more member of the family left? there were so few of us lately, all I wanted right now was to go back in time to being a kid again, playing hide and seek with Victor and Nicolas in the garden or watching them fight in arm wrestling, who was the better of the two, Nicolas always won, maybe that's where the hatred between brothers started.At that m
I was in the car watching the right time to act when I heard the shot my heart literally missed jumping through the mouth in my head a single thought, my sweet Amy.I jumped out of the truck and ran towards the old cabin on the path next to a car I found a man lying in agony, my attention fled from him going to stop at the door of the cabin where my brother was standing with his back turned he had not seen me so I tried to call his attention once and for all__victor Montenegro?He turned on automatic, staring at me in disbelief as if I were a ghost.___ it can't be you I killed youI smiled at his amazement at the fact that he thought that at this moment I was being fed to worms.___you're deeply mistaken, little brother, I'm very much alive. It seems that like a cat, I have seven lives. This is already the third unsuccessful attempt to kill me, isn't it? I think I should stop trying___bastard, damn, now I send you to hellWhen he raised the pistol to shoot me, Hannibal and the other
Hearing Nicolas's voice on the other end of the line was one of the most emotional moments of my life.Unfortunately I couldn't say everything I wanted to because Victor had woken up and was screaming at me, I tried to say that diegues was the traitor but I had my cell phone snatched from my hands and my face slapped several times__Who are you calling? question___for no one VictorUnfortunately there was no time for me to erase anything so Victor looked at the call log recognizing his sister's number he cursed and dragged me to the bedroom throwing me on the bed and slapping me something that had become a habit.___What are you thinking about Amy? No one will take you from me before I kill you..I was crying softly as he continued to scream.___can you hear me Amy, you will never leave me....I curled up on the bed and stayed like that for a long time until a twinge in my stomach made me change position I thought it was something fleeting but it wasn't that initial twinge now it mad
