All Chapters of THE TASTE OF SIN: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for coming tonight to share this delicious dinner in honor of Christie and Jonathan. We know that from tomorrow their happiness will increase, to the bride and groom!” Says my father rising his champagne glass and toasting for my happiness “For the bride and groom” they all reply.After a brief farewell, I go up to my suite. The Four Seasons Hotel in Miami, my hometown, was the venue chosen for the wedding. I always wanted to get married at the beach, luckily Jonathan didn't have a problem with that. After finishing my night routine, I have one last glance at my beautiful wedding dress, I can't wait to wear it tomorrow and walk on the sand by my father's arm to the altar where the love of my life will be waiting for me. Finally, I fall asleep.  I wake up confused, I hear a banging even though I don't know where it comes from. I look at the time on my cell phone and realize i

                                                      HATE AT FIRST SIGHT  “Likewise, it is a pleasure to meet you. My name is Stefano Graziani” says the idiot in perfect English with a sexy accent.“Ah! you can speak English!” Sarcastic words come out of my mouth before I can stop them.“Of course, we all speak English” my brother-in-law intervenes, a little bit confused by my comment.“I say it is because... umm... as in the beginning you spoke to them in Italian, well...”“Oh yes, it's a family tradition, we speak Italian among us” I can see an old man looking at the idiot of the airport and laughing mischievously. Now I recognize him, he was the person to whom the prick was very distracted talking to.&

                                                    “DECLARATION OF WAR” “You're ready, Chris. You look absolutely beautiful,” says Rashid, my hairstylist, and slowly I turn around to look up at myself in the mirror to admire his artwork. Whenever he does my hair and makeup I feel like a supermodel.“Good job, as always.”“Say it, honey, say it.”“You're the best,” I say, rolling my eyes.“I know!”“You're being vain” he shrugs walking to the other side of my closet to get my dress, unzips the holster where it is, and puts on a very disappointed expression.“What”“Are you going to wear this?” she asks, pointing to the beautiful pink dress with crystals embroidere

A MAJOR MISTAKE  My office door slams shut, I suddenly look up to see Alena laughing so hard and grabbing her sides, curiosity takes over me, what has happened now? last week Graziani hired his new assistant, sin then my beloved company has turned into a circus.“Could you tell me what's going on?”“Stefano is about to hang himself from the lamp” he pauses “Reni” she says her name in a squeaky pitch “she's not getting anything right, but something about her doesn't seem to fit, it's like she's doing it on purpose. As if she's trying to be a failure.”“How can you be sure?”“For God's sake, Chris! No one can be such an idiot in life. Stefano requested her to order him a salad with no onions and a vinaigrette instead of mayonnaise, and she did the opposite.”“So, Graziani is having problems,” I laugh, “well, I'm

GET OUT OF MY HEAD  Once again, I turn over and pick up my cell phone to see the time 2:05 am, apparently, I won't be able to sleep. Maybe if I could relax I could sleep a few hours, I search in the app store for one of those famous relaxing apps, I download it quickly and put it to work, fluff the pillow and adjust the blanket. As the music plays, I make an effort to loosen my tense muscles, I try not to think about anything but instead let the soft melody take over my senses and lead me to a peaceful state of sleep.I have the feeling of walking down a very long and dimly lit hallway “hello, is there anyone here?” I ask, but I don't hear an answer. In the end, there is a very nice white door, I remain static for a moment, but my curiosity wins and I advance towards it. Once I'm in front it opens by itself, I can see a silhouette extending his hand and inviting me to enter, with no hesitation I take it, the door
