The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER FORTY: BACK TO FIVE YEARS AGO
VALENTINA'S POINT OF VIEW “I can't go in there,” I said to Diego as I stared at that formidable gate, the gate to the villa where everything happened, Damian's jealousy, Diego's accident, Dester's death. This villa holds memories of our last time happy together, in this villa was the last time I saw Diego… my Diego the same way.We all grew up together; Damian, Diego, Dester, my sister Sydney and I. Diego and I were best friends then we grew older and became lovers, Dester and Sydney had always been together, I remember them holding hands and kissing almost every time, they were the definition of teenage love , crazy, reckless, so in love. Reckless, maybe they shouldn't have been so reckless in their love, maybe then Dester would not have died and Sydney would not be in that coma, and maybe if Dester had not died and Sydney was not in a coma Damian would not have shot Diego, Diego would not have lost his memory and we would all just be as happy as we once were.It's a confusing story

VALENTINA'S POINT OF VIEW“You can tell me anything” Diego said, his hand was on my arm trying to calm me down. He looked so worried, a bit anxious and a lot confused. We are sitting in a cafe a few streets away from the villa, a small cafe with painted wooden chairs that were laid out side by side and at each opposite sides of the coffee table, the walls had beautiful graffiti style art on them, there was one of a woman on a beautiful beach and another of what looks like an Afro-Latina with her beautiful full 4B hair on display.I looked away from Diego and turned my gaze to the art on the wall close to me, it was one of a hollow black hole, empty, turbulent, lonely. A little like how I would be after Diego finds out, this piece of art looked very out of place amongst the other cheerful, happy paintings.“Valentina I am here for you, always, I promise. You can tell me anything.” Diego said again, his voice was thick with emotions, his face looked like it used to before the accident,

ZARA’S POINT OF VIEW “Where is the flash drive?” He asked, Mateo, the man who has been keeping me captive for a few minutes now, I watched the grandfather clock ticking by the side of the room. Ten minutes and still he hasn’t gotten his answer, I can tell that he is starting to get a lot impatient, I don’t know how long I can stall, I don’t even think it’s a good idea for me to keep stalling because I don’t think anyone is coming to save me. Mateo works for Raphael, everyone here works for Raphael. Including the women all dressed in skimpy lingerie that hardly covers anything. Black, white, biracial, Hispanic, you name them Raphael has all of them… all of us under his rule. That insatiable bastard.Sometimes I wonder how he and my father were able to keep this part of their lives hidden for so long, I wonder how Yara and I did not see how much of a sick bastard my father was, to us he was nothing but a devoted loving father until we turned fourteen and he decided that we had to joi

YARA’S POINT OF VIEW I woke up to see my name printed in the front page of an online gossip magazine with the words ‘home wrecker’ next to it. There was a picture of me looking really ugly and scruffy in a head scarf, faded T-shirt, a yoga pant and flip flops next to an insanely stunning picture of Olivia Reverra on the Oscar red carpet draped in a stunning blue Chanel couture dress, which was covered in thousands of Swarovski crystals, heels to die for and a perfectly flawless skin.The heading of the post read ‘Walter Davis left America’s sweetheart Olivia Reverra for this’ I am the ‘this’. I headed to the comment section even if I knew that I probably should not.‘She is so ugly! What does Walter see in that bitch?!’ The first comment read, I could imagine a frown on the face of the fan as they wrote this comment. They were probably on their kitchen counter, typing furiously with a mug filled with coffee by their side.“Men! I had Walter! He is such a playboy! I am not going to w

VALENTINA’S POINT OF VIEW “I want to show you something.” Diego said suddenly during dinner, his fork going through his meal of spaghetti bolognese without actually picking any strand of spaghetti up.I had asked what was wrong about two minutes ago but he insisted that everything was alright even if he continued picking through his food.“It is something really personal to me, something I haven’t told or shown anyone before.” He added meeting my stare with a sad, haunted gaze.I nodded, reached out to hold his hands in mine.“I’ve got you, always and forever Diego.” I said and meant it. We have gotten closer just being alone together on this semi-deserted island. I have seen parts of him that I never thought I would see after the accident, parts of him that I thought had been buried with my father, burnt in the flames of our legendary family fued.I wonder if he would still want me around if (when) he finds out about his brother (Dester’s) death and my sister’s involvement in it.I
Last Updated : 2024-10-24The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE: LIAR VALENTINA
VALENTINA’S POINT OF VIEW We walked into the elevator, the ride was tensed, the silence was deafening, no words spoken just both of us alone with our thoughts. Alone with thoughts we probably thought would be irrelevant by now, thoughts that hunts me every single day, they come as nightmares, a faceless man that I know but do not know chasing me with a sickle.I guess I deserve that, I shot him didn’t I? I shot the one person I have ever loved and now he is here with me, standing side by sides with me taking me to the sight where that memory was formed.We got out of the elevator and walked into a room that looked like one of those old Victorian era library, dusty old books on shelves, thousands and thousands of shelves that rose all the way to the ceiling of one part of the room. The other part of the enormous room had pictures of the Fernandez’s ancestors from the twentieth generation. Sir Enesto Fernandez, first of his name is the founder, the patriarch of the Fernandez’s dynasty

YARA’S POINT OF VIEW I watched them dance so closely, the dance was so slow so sensual, so so intimate. It is the after party for Walter’s movie premiere, there’s a whole bunch of press people here, a whole bunch of celebrities that I recognize from them being on every single screen I have watched from phone screens to television screens.I hate the way she has her hands on him, the way his hands dips into the low back of her evening gown, I hate the way he leans into her and kisses the the space between her breasts which was exposed by the deep V-neck at the front of the dress. Disgusting, they were literally fucking right here in front of us all.Everyone else awwned and went all puppy eyed and dreamy eyed. They looked like the perfect couple, they are the perfect couple, Walter Davis and Olivia Reverra are literally the modern Romeo and Juliet.After they released that article stating that they were back together every thing went back to normal for Walter in fact it was better tha

YARA’S POINT OF VIEW I could hardly sleep, I just kept tossing and turning on my bed, the image of them dancing played and re-played in my head, each memory more intense than the last. My brain added more details, details that had not been there, it added things that probably did not happen.I picked up a book, flipped through it as I tried to forget the whole scenario but the thought still stayed in my brain, my brain just chose to fixate on it for some reason. I wish I was the one that close to him, I wish I was the one he was touching, holding, kissing. I wish I was the one who had my hands around him.I closed my eyes and my brain worked its magic creating imagination where he is so close to me where his lips travels down my body. I arched my body upwards as I caressed by breast with my hand imagining that it was him. In my imagination his lips were on my nipples, sucking and teasing them tenderly. In my imagination his lips trailed kisses lower and lower until it got to the soft

The devil’s new plaything WAITING TO EXHALE
ZARA’S POINT OF VIEW I got down from the plane, it’s sunny now, not scorching hot though, just the right temperature like the sky decided to finally smile after the long period of snows. It is January now, December and the holidays is over.December, Christmas was really nice, I spent it with my sister, we watched cheesy Christmas movies while drinking hot cocoa and eating cookies. It was the best time in a long long time, i am getting a little bit homesick just thinking about it. I am in Seoul now, I smile to myself I take in the environment, it’s a little bit busy here at the airport, there are people going and people arriving, there are families welcoming back their loved ones and people saying goodbye.I got my luggage and walked down, I got a taxi and headed to the University. The Taxi stopped in front of the large university accommodation. It looked happy, beautiful, the grasses, trees, the statues, the architecture, everything sat right with me. I stood in front as I checked
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER HUNDRED: THE SKY MIGHT BE FALLING BUT I’LL HOLD YOU TIGHT
YARA’S POINT OF VIEW “So how are you feeling today?” My therapist Nia asked. It was hard the first time I was here, the thought of baring myself completely to a stranger made me feel a bit uncomfortable. Therapy felt a bit complicated, being vulnerable did not seem great but it’s been two months now, I think I am getting better at it.“Better, I feel a bit better. I still have the panick attacks sometimes but I think it will all get better eventually.” I said with a smile on my lips, I stared at the pastel colored walls, at the little posters on them. ‘Breath in breath out you’ll be alright.’ One of the posters said, I believe it. It’s taking a while but I can see the improvement.I moved out, moved to a new area, got a new job, crafted new routines for myself, I feel like everything would be alright… eventually.I’m still learning somethings and unlearning over things, I wake in the morning do a little self affirmation, I try to breathe my way to serenity whenever I feel anxious, I
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER NINTY-NINE: IF THE WORLD WAS ENDING YOU’D COME OVER RIGHT?
DIEGO’S POINT OF VIEW I feel so helpless right now, I feel so… tired so drained.I cannot do anything about the situation, i cannot help, make it better, nothing I do will make Ava better now. Most times, in most situations money solves the problem, I have a lot of that but now even that cannot help. We just have to watch and see what happens like what the doctor said. It is a horrible feeling being helpless, not knowing what would happen next, being uncertain, feeling this lump of grief and sadness in the pit of your stomach.She lost a lot of blood, the bullet might have damaged some vital organs in her chest area, the bullet is still in her, it might be completely shattered now making it difficult to find all its pieces. The doctors just keep giving us information that makes the situation worse than it already is and now we haven’t heard from them… the doctors for a while now, they have been in that room with Ava for sometime now, we don’t know what is happening, we don’t know wh
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER NINTY-EIGHT: HIS CRAZY MATCHES HER MADNESS…
RAPHAEL’S POINT OF VIEW This should be interesting, I wonder who she would pick; her daughter or her lover, I am actually genuinely curious. I watch her intensely, this Sanchéz girl, it’s funny because I watched her grow up, I watched all of them grow up well almost all of them except the little girl Ava. She seems like a nice kid it’s such a shame that she would be dead soon, they would all be dead soon regardless of who Valentina picks, I am just interested in her choice, I am always interested in how the human mind works.Her choice does not mean I would not take my revenge anyway. They all die anyway, every single one of them, I like a clean job that’s why I get things done by myself… most of the time.“Clock is ticking Valentina, thirty seconds more.” There’s tears in her eyes, she looks from Diego to Ava with the gun in her hand. Her daughter Ava looks scared I can’t blame the five years old. Ahhh Drama, I love it.“Shoot me.” Diego said frantically to Valentina, that fool alw
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER NINTY-SEVEN: NO IN BETWEENS
YARA’S POINT OF VIEW There is this girl who had tried to escape yesterday, she looks no older than seventeen, she looks frail and pale, like everything has been stripped away from her. This girl makes me question the love I feel for Raphael. Amelia, seventeen year old, She has been continuously abused, constantly raped by Raphael Fernandez since she was twelve, I was brought to tears by her story, it is so… inhumane what happened to her… how could I have been so dumb to have fallen in love with such an abuser?! I cannot look at him the same, in fact I never want to see him again, I hope Raphael Fernandez gets the punishment he deserves. I looked at the flash drive again, this can get Amelia the justice she deserves, this can bring Raphael the punishment he deserves.I hand this flash drive over to Amelia, we have been plotting her escape for sometime now, me, her and one of Raphael most trusted employee. This employee has been on Raphael’s payroll for the longest time, he was the o
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER NINTY-SIX: SEND ME AWAY
VALENTINA’S POINT OF VIEW.When I saw him standing there at the door way in a grey hoodie, I thought I was imagining things, I thought I had finally gone crazy from loneliness, I think I had let psychosis get the better of me because of how much I miss Diego.But the he moved closer and closer to me, he looked very real, very present, very… there but I did not want to believe it, three months! Three months and he is here now? I had mourned him, I had blamed God of being unfair to me, I had fought God for taking my Diego again so I could not believe that Diego was the one standing in front of me.I ran into his arms with tears in my eyes, I never thought I would ever see him again but thank goodness fate is being kind to me by bringing my Diego back. He hugged me tightly, he hugged me like I am the breath in his lungs, I have so many questions, many things I want to know but for now I just leaned into his hug, enjoying the comfort that it brings.“Diego!! I missed you so much.” I heard
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER NINTY-FIVE: SILENT MORNING
RAPHAEL’S POINT OF VIEW “Where the Fuck is he?!” This bunch of incompetent idiots! How the fuck did Diego escape?! I have everyone lined up in front of me, everyone down to the chef and the butler, they are all so stupid! How could they let this happen! If I don’t get a reasonable answer in 0.1 second every body’s would be spun out of their necks, it wouldn’t make any difference since they are brainless already! Brainless enough to let Diego escape!There have to be a snitch, a betrayer, a two faced idiot amongst these fools because there is no way that Diego escaped all by himself, this place is heavily guarded, there are guard at every single point so someone must have help that spawn of mine.“There is an enemy amongst us, the person who helped Diego escape can either come out now or be fished out.” I studied them one after the other, nobody came out, it’s alright then let the show begin.I dragged the head of the domestic staff out first, she usually knows all the gossips I bet
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER NINTY-FOUR: ALL SHADES OF BLUE
DELVIN’S POINT OF VIEW It is my wedding day today, I should be happy but I am not, I feel like my life is spinning out of control, I feel like my life is spinning in a direction that I don’t want it to… everything feels so… wrong, so out of place, it feels like I am about to make the worse mistake of my life.Maybe I would have been happy if I was getting married the the only girl I have ever loved. Zara. But Anyway, this has to be done, this will strengthen the alliance between my family and the Perrozos, this is good for business, it will help my father campaign, it will give us the opportunity to merge our companies together and I will be the CEO of this new company.Marrying Maddison Perrozo is what is best, it is what our families want.“My man! It still feels like a yesterday when you were a playboy out here on these streets causing havoc and now you a getting married?! I still can’t believe it!” My annoying brother Hunter said as he patted me playfully on my back.I took my ph
The devil’s new plaything CHAPTER NINTY-THREE: THIS IS GOODBYE.
ZARA’S POINT OF VIEW “These past few days has been hell for me, I want to be in your life forever Zara, I can’t… cannot function without you by my side.” Delvin said, his eyes were focused on me, his eyes… they held untold emotions, they held a passion.I swallowed, I have to stay strong, I have to follow my plan, I have to not feel, I have to choose myself, I have to stay alive.We are at a completely empty lounge, there are gaming screens and equipments on some corners of the lounge, some the lights at the corners blinked slowly. I stare one of the screen, it is completely blank but I still stare at it.I don’t want to look at him, I don’t want all the feelings I have for him to come up to the surface, I want him but I also want to stay alive, tonight is the last time I will ever see him.I don’t want to look at him because looking at him will make it harder for me to leave him in the past, looking at him will make it more difficult for me to prioritize my life over our love.Lovin
