With love, Mr. Bragança CHAPTER 39
NELLY Tears fall from my eyes and reach the black velvet, I cry for him, for Lígia, for Luís Miguel and for the baby who never had the chance to live. I cry for all the innocent victims who died because of irresponsible drivers, drunk idiots who only think about themselves and how drunk they can get. I cry as I put everything back in its place, I continue to allow the tears to fall as I slide the tape and close the boxes, but I wince when I hear footsteps coming, I wipe the tears with the wrist of the shirt I wear and drop the work in half, walking on tiptoe and turning off the light before peeping through the door and escaping to the pool area, diving into the cold water to hide the tears, a few minutes later I hear my name in his mouth and he comes through the door like a rocket, eyes sharp and a serious face. He knows. I hug my own body, feeling the fabric of the blouse stick to my skin with the help of the water. David Rosna and ergolook into his, finding hunger in place of ange

NELLY I left David's apartment to go home. It seemed like the right decision after the silent breakfast. The atmosphere became awkward after that fateful sentence left my lips and, although I wasn't expecting a reciprocal response and was acting according to my heart, his detachment and obvious discomfort made me sick. My submission to him is nothing new, but I feel as if I've broken some magical barrier by confessing my love in that intimate moment, with his sperm still dripping out of me, I'm transparent when we're together, my actions are like the first steps of a child, and I've already made it more than clear how old this feeling is. Come on, even a blind man could see my teenage crush on him. The man isn't crazy, and I'm sure he's noticed. I'm not crazy either, and I know he has feelings for me, even if they're small. Argh! I shouldn't have spoken, that's the truth. Should I call and ask if we're all right? I think and stare at the cell phone in my right hand, tempted to loo

DAVID "You really don't want me to take you to the hospital?" I squeezed my partner and friend's shoulder, understanding the intensity of the pain he was feeling. Years ago it was me, the same lost look and countenance. My chest tightens, because it's like looking in the mirror. But there is still hope for him. "No, I called her parents. I... Uh." Her gaze meets mine, stunned, and I can see the tears welling up in her eyes. "She's my life, man. I can't lose this woman." I sigh and pull into a hug. Giulliard cries like a frightened child in my arms. "You won't." I say, though I have not the slightest idea of your bride's present state, because that is the only comfort I can offer, and I hope it is all that a tormented heart needs. "She's so perfect, man. So full of life that even when she's grieving and having big problems to solve, she's the most amazing person I've ever met." I keep quiet, realizing it's a vent, he needs it and all I'm going to do is listen. "We never got b

NELLY "I suppose I expressed myself badly. I'm sorry. Is our time up?" I didn't wait for your confirmation, I just hurried to grab my short-handled bag and get up from the small gray L-shaped sofa. "Actually, we still have fifteen minutes," says the man, looking at the gold watch on his wrist with an even-handed expression. ''Really?'' My voice is strained from trying to sound relaxed, my eyes being drawn to the door every moment. He notices, steps in front of me, and advances towards the rectangular wooden table that I've never seen him use, but which always has a cup of coffee on top. Octavio shuffles some papers, clutters the pile of folders, and ignores my presence. "Doctor..." I stop, cleared my throat and drew some air into my lungs and changed my body to face it. ''Octavio.'' I call him by his first name, regaining his attention. "I just remembered that I had a very important appointment. Do you mind if we forget the remaining fifteen minutes?" He smiles, but doesn't show

NELLY I stare at my best friend's face in disbelief, my eyes blink, and a few tears come down. By the time I thought it was too late, my feet had carried me to the outside of the restaurant. I stopped in front of Alice and pulled my best friend's arm, leading her away from Edward. The expression on her face was the same as mine, disbelief and dread. ''Nelly.'' My name came out like an uncertain whisper from his mouth, and I couldn't stop blinking. This can only be a dream. "You're here..." I mean, still incredulous. "How are you here? How did I not know you were coming back?" The flurry of questions, picking up a loose strand of her hair and assessing the new hue. Platinum blonde, almost as white as your skin. "I can explain, it's not what it seems." My eyes returned to Edward at the same moment, realizing that his attention is also focused on me. I look back at Alice, expecting a logical explanation for the scene that I had come to believe there was one. "How did this happen? I

DAVID Of all places, I thought my club would be the best place to hide from and think. But I was mistaken. I can't think of here. Not in a clear way. Only in her, of course. Nelly. What the hell! I am a grown man, a widower. Any nymph shouldn't mess with my mind so much. I squeeze my head away from the drink that Nicole, the club's new hire for the bar, hands me. She ignores my grimace and pushes the glass in front of my eyes. "You need to." she says, turning to arrange the liquor bottles in their places on the shelf. I watch the clear liquid with lemon slices in the background. I don't think about it. I flip the content at once. ''What the hell is this? I groan as I feel my throat burn inside and stare at the glass of liquor in my hands.Nicole gives me a resolute smile."Something strong and good," she replies with a wink, pouring more of the clear liquid into my glass, not bothering to add lemon wedges this time. I evaluate the content, the taste still alive in the languag

NELLY"Are you okay?" I wipe away the first tears with my fingertips and stare into Kiara's eyes, forcing a closed-mouth smile. Not knowing what to say, I just bang my head in denial. "Okay, come here." She pulls me into a hug, stroking my back with the tips of her nails like only a cat would."Get me out of here." I can tell, feeling such an emptiness in my chest that it's hard to breathe. ''Please, Kiara.''''Shiiii... Let's go, honey."I bring the air into my lungs and then let it out, counting the seconds in thought. She wraps her arms around us and I walk to her rhythm, taking it one step at a time."I don't feel anything." I check, bringing my right hand to my chest to check the heartbeat and make sure I still have the heart beating. "It's like I'm numb" I add.''Just breathe,'' Kiara whispers, opening the exit door as she looks at me sideways and waits for me to take a step."He doesn't love me, I've never had any chance.""Who?" she asks, dragging her open hand down my back in

NELLYI slide my back across the wood of the door until I reach the floor. Bring my knees together on my stomach, I remain in the position until I have free mind. I'm sure my eyes are swollen when I get up, not knowing how much time has passed, go to the bathroom and wash my face. I gather my things in a single suitcase and put everything in my dad's old car that we keep in the garage.I drive to my apartment, leave my things in the living room, and head to the nearest grocery store.Not only that, but I can feel the other customers' eyes on me as I continue to place packets of candy, snacks, and cookies in the cash register. However, I don't care, I just don't care anymore. Eating is the only thing that will bring some relief, my only choice that won't bring disappointment.I pull on my winter coat tight and try to fasten the first few buttons, aware that I've gained a few pounds in the last few days, but refusing to figure out the exact amount.

With love, Mr. Bragança EPILOGUE
NELLY 5 years later... I don't think I'm an eclectic music person, I mean I can tolerate some styles of music, but hard rock is definitely not one of them. Well, well, maybe I'm just irritated that I woke up and didn't find David in bed. So where is he? The sound of the music tells me he's close, but how close? My legs and feet are hurting, but nothing compares to the constant throbbing in my back, and I need the message he promised. Not to mention the discomfort between my legs, but that part is good. Last night was crazy. I leave the room and go down the hallway in silence, taking the opportunity to stop by the five-year-old twins' room, they both hate following rules and follow their father everywhere. They are a faithful copy of my husband, despite having different personalities. Luca and Xavier are complete matches, which I'm grateful for, because they are extremely similar physically. At first, I had some difficulty identifying who was who. To be honest, my husband was the

DAVIDWe stayed at the party for an hour, chatting a little with most of the guests, unfortunately, I lost Nelly for a long twenty minutes to Cassandra. The two women were having an excited conversation about motherhood and I didn't want to interrupt, however, when Eduardo appeared with a bouquet of orchids for my wife, I had to intervene.He gave me a single look and snorted.Bastard.Apparently, Alice went into labor the night before and couldn't come to the party. Nelly hugged the idiot and cried a little in her arms, promising that she would soon visit her goddaughter and friend.I pulled my wife back and kept my arm around her waist until it was time to get into the car, which happened right after our dance.She complained about needing to throw the bouquet, and I threw it towards Kiara.Nelly laughed when my friend cursed me.I shrugged and moved on. She will overcome.It takes me thirty minutes to get to the house and the beach, and I watch it with silence and expectation.I fo

DAVID347.Three hundred and forty-seven people are on my mother's wedding list, but that's the list she created months ago, when even I didn't know where my romance with Nelly was going.This is Hordellis Bragança, the party itself.Anyway, I left the organization of the ceremony to her and Nelly, focusing on the honeymoon. My girl will be almost nine months into our marriage in two days, and I have to think about a possible fluke, like two babies arriving in the middle of the honeymoon. Therefore, I bought a beach house a few meters from the hospital and had it renovated according to its parameters of a perfect house.She wanted to wait to perform the ceremony after the lights went out, but I was so eager to call her my wife that I couldn't wait. After all, what's the point of all the money if I can't plan a wedding in two weeks?Well, I'm starting to think this was a bad idea. My mother kidnapped Nelly and said I would only see her again on her wedding day.''Please? '' I beg for w

NELLYI open my eyes with a sweet smile on my face, David caresses my belly in a delicate, affectionate and a little possessive way as if he was afraid of hurting me or something, but I realized seconds ago that no, he was contemplating, so mesmerized with the kicking show that our children were putting on that he didn't notice that I was watching him. I never thought I would witness this scene after everything we've experienced, but hearing my babies' father singing a lullaby was the best feeling I've ever felt.The throbbing between my legs also increased at the sexy sight, part of me wanted to reveal that I was awake and request that massage he suggested a few times last night, but I also didn't want to ruin the moment, so I rested my head. I went back on the pillow and continued pretending I was sleeping until I couldn't take it anymore. David began to sing a song about a street, a forest, shining stones, and an angel.My eyes filled with tears.Those damn hormones.'' Do you beli

DAVIDWhen I left home this morning, I made it my mission to make our first night together after all this time special. Nelly always wanted to know a little more about my dark side and my perverse fantasies, but I was always afraid and controlled myself with her, but with all the events we've experienced I realized that my girl won't judge me or run away.We both need this.The club is operating normally upstairs, but downstairs I reserved it for just the two of us. Nelly never fully experienced my dominating side, she never knew how she is at my command and mercy, but today that will change. I crave her touch and taste more than air, I need to thrust into her without mercy to satisfy the beast inside me and, if I were any other man, I would treat her with affection and softness at this point in her pregnancy, but I don't. I am. We've been apart so long that I can't, I just can't make soft love. I think that's why I allowed him to sleep last night and didn't try anything even though I

NELLY'' How can you be sure?''He gives me a cocky look and raises his left eyebrow.'' Because I locked it.''I keep my mouth open, looking between him and the door, thinking about when this happened until I remember to close my eyes for a few minutes and black out.'' All good? '' he asks, probably noticing my insecure expression. I lay back on the bed and feel him move. Within a second, David is standing next to me, forcing my face up, so I can look at him.'' Yes, I.. '' I close my eyes and count to five. '' I don't know if we should have sex.He frowns.'' You do not want?''I bite my lip and sigh, remembering that I need to talk to him about Kaciana and ask him to stop looking for her.'' It's not that, I just want you to take it easy.''The corners of his mouth turn up, and he starts twirling a strand of my hair around his ring finger.'' Baby, we're not going to have sex.''I grimace.'' No?''His smile widens.'' You seem disappointed.''I cough, trying to sit up, but carryi

NELLYI run my hand over his face carefully, touching the recent bruises and marks. When Hordellis called to inform me that David had returned, my mind went blank and I didn't know how to act, I mean, first my mother and then him. It was too much. I only knew I was coming here when I got into the taxi and gave the name of the hospital to the driver.'' What happened? '' I whisper, unable to stop touching him. David Bragança is a handsome man even though he's all dressed up, cut that out, he's breathtaking.'' It doesn't matter. '' he says, his eyes dropping to my cleavage and looking away when he realizes I caught him.He clears his throat and runs his fingers through his hair, taking distance. I try not to show it, but it bothers me and brings back the feeling of loneliness.'' All good? You seem nervous. Oh, I need to call the doctor. '' I say, worried about the lack of color on her lips.''No.''he shouts, grabbing my hand at the last minute. '' I'm just nervous about our date. '' h

DAVIDI stared at my apathetic form and the scratches on my face angrily, the man's reflection in the mirror wasn't me, at least, it didn't look like me. My face was thinner, my jaw was more visible, and I would need to see a dermatologist about the spots and burns.When I decided to leave Nelly in the middle of her pregnancy, I was sure that I would return in a few weeks and earn her forgiveness. My mistake. Finding Kaciana proved to be a difficult task from the beginning, but after I hired Arthur and the first clue emerged, my spirits were reinvigorated, and we left for South Africa. The woman was following my order to the letter and covering her tracks, until we bumped into someone who knew someone who saw her.Turns out the lead was false, and we fell into a trap, the man who contacted us was part of a local and unfortunate gang, they called themselves the Pirates of Urr. No idea what it meant, but the captain loved to torture, especially those with clothes on. Guys and gold watch
With love, Mr. Bragança CHAPTER 75
NELLYMy body was frozen in place and everything felt delayed, from the sinking of his chest with each breath to the narrowing of his eyes.Kaciana walked past me after a long moment of silence and touched my shoulder gently, offering a warm smile that looked wrong on her face. She looked different, but I couldn't identify what it was as I closed the door behind me and followed her to the couch. I watched as she surveyed my living room and turned her nose up at the pictures on the wall. They weren't works of art worth millions, no, I bought them from a lady at the market near the mall the other day. She must have noticed and disapproved.So many questions were being thrown around in my head at this very moment.I stared at her figure for another full minute, hoping and hoping that she would be the first to speak, as I looked and looked for any difference, I was drawn to the golden ring with a small stone on top on her left-hand ring finger. No, she can't... Is she? I looked more close
