Chapter 31

31 - Apollo CastielloThe world breaks everyone, the very good, the very kind, the very brave. And those it doesn’t break, it kills.- The ChoiceI finally felt at home, after turbulent days that seemed endless. The silence that enveloped me was comforting, yet unsettling. It was as if that place offered me a peace I could no longer recognize within myself. There was a vast emptiness inside me, a constant sensation of merely floating, drifting through the days without purpose or direction. Each minute passed slowly, dragging on as if time had lost its meaning.Those moments that once took my breath away, that had filled my days with intensity, were now only distant memories. Before, I felt on the brink of chaos, living between extremes of emotion and despair. Now, all that remained was silence. That silence that seemed to scream inside me, reminding me that something was missing.I tried to focus on something tangible, something that would keep me in the present. Work was my anchor. I

The wounds that had once burned incessantly began to heal, as if, finally, time was doing its work. I had grown in the past months; I had somehow been reborn.

Chapter 33

33 - Apollo Castiello She truly is charming. So young. So sweet. So innocent. Sweet RevengeAfter months of preparation and completely out of the spotlight, filming would begin in less than twenty-four hours. At least for me. I would need to travel to California to shoot the first scenes since my character was American before deciding to move to Europe. I was anxious and ready to act again, to show all the talent my father had passed down to me.It was already getting dark, and I was still at NewScene, sorting out the last details of our trip the next day. The part that both relieved and bothered me was knowing that Mia wouldn’t be coming with us. Sure, the idea was to keep my distance from her, but I didn’t want to be in a different continent from her.That being said, I can say I still haven’t gotten over anything we’ve been through. However, I didn’t seek her out. I needed to give her space and time, but I felt that this time would never come to an end.“Okay, all passports are w

Chapter 34

34 - Mia Lauren Hudson You’re like a sister to me. And with our families… we need each other. — Gossip Girl I clearly needed to go shopping. My wardrobe no longer suited this new phase of my life, and the emptiness I felt every time I looked at those old clothes reflected who I no longer was. It was obvious that I also desperately needed a Girls’ Day, something Kayla and I hadn’t celebrated in so long. During the years of my marriage, this ritual had been neglected, a void that left a bigger gap than I could have imagined. Kayla had always been my support, my partner in laughter and confessions. So, it was only fair to choose this specific day to bring back our beloved tradition.It was already mid-afternoon, and up until that moment, we had completed an essential part of the plan: taking care of ourselves. Manicure, pedicure, waxing, and hair. Every step of the day felt like reclaiming our old routine, a declaration that we were back, stronger, more confident. Kayla and I laughed

Chapter 35

35 - Apollo CastielloI came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with someone, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.Harry and Sally - Made for Each Other.I was back in Europe, far from all the warmth and sunshine that California had greeted us with in the past few days. The entire NewScene crew was back home, and the initial filming of the movie was progressing smoothly. I was already proud, and it was a good start. Now that we were back, I would finally have some time to rest and more time to study my new scenes because the next ones to be filmed were Mia’s, and I was as eager as I imagined she could be.After all, it was her first time acting, and I remember my first audition well; I recall how, despite every part of me trembling inside, I acted through it and landed my first role. But I knew I couldn’t have done it alone, which is why I had my father and mother by my side. That’s why I couldn’t stop thinking Mia mig

Chapter 36

Mia Lauren Hudson - 36Most questions are about stupid things.— The Incredible Story of AdalineI opened my eyes when the brightness of a sunny morning invaded the windows of my living room. It took me a moment to realize why I was sleeping on the living room rug until my body woke up and I felt the weight of an arm around my waist. The memories flooded my mind instantly, thoughts tangled in my head.Apollo was with me, he had been with me all night. Loving me madly, whispering sweet things to me, and giving me the peace I hadn't felt in a long time, the peace I only experienced when I was like this with him, in his arms, feeling his warm breath near my neck. I never would have imagined paradise could be so simple.Speaking of simple things, it wasn't that simple, really. I was still confused, because if I weren't, I wouldn't be me.Sure, Apollo was by my side, he spent Valentine's night with me, and we made love in a wild way, but what were we? What could I expect from him, from us?

Chapter 37

37 Apollo CastielloSometimes, you need to follow your instincts.— Me Before YouMy mood at the end of the day wasn't the best. The previous night had been hot and deliciously addictive. The day had been productive, and I was Mia's number one fan, watching her firsthand. The only problem was that I wasn’t the only one who admired her that way. And I deeply suspected that everyone who saw her desired her. And that made me incredibly irritated."Are you going to tell me or not why you have that face?" Mia invaded my thoughts, standing right in front of me.We were having dinner at a restaurant next to the set as soon as filming ended for the day. We chose a quiet place, somewhere we had never been before, because we couldn’t be seen together. Not yet. The last thing we needed was media attention. But at that moment, all I wanted was to scream to the world that Mia Lauren was mine."Eat! Don’t worry about me, I’m just thinking about work," I lied to her, because it was solely my problem

Chapter 38

38 - Mia Lauren HudsonRuin is the road to transformation.Eat, Pray, LoveThe last few days slipped through our fingers. Days and days of consecutive filming. It was exhausting, but extremely rewarding. I was loving finally being part of that world, bringing a new character to life. I had no idea it was so much work yet so liberating at the same time. Everything was flowing so well, and if things continued like that, we would soon premiere around London and worldwide. The anticipation filled me.But the weekend had arrived, and for that weekend at least, we weren’t working. Apollo, Kayla, Paul, and I went away for those two days. My friend’s parents had a house far from the city, a green and lively farm near a beautiful lake where we lounged on deck chairs, watching the sun's light dance on the water.Kayla and Paul were swimming together, and Apollo and I watched our friend. She had finally let her guard down, and the two seemed to be living in a long honeymoon. It was as if they ha

Chapter 39

39 Apollo Castiello Leave the past behind.— The WitcherAutumn had arrived faster than we expected. We didn’t realize how quickly the days had passed until we finished filming the movie. The intense routine, long days, and sleepless nights on set had become part of us, as if that were the only world we lived in. When we finally realized that filming was over, we were overwhelmed by a mixture of relief and nostalgia, as if something important was being left behind. It was a surprise even for me, someone who always thought I was prepared for the end of this cycle.Jamie, as the impeccable director he was, managed to bring out the best in each of us and the entire production. Every little detail was meticulously adjusted. We worked tirelessly, and with every retake, the tension and desire for perfection grew. Every time we returned to shoot a scene that wasn’t perfect yet, we gave our all in every new attempt, as if our soul was poured into every movement, every line, every look.It wa

Chapter 40

40- Mia Lauren Hudson"Even to be a flower, you need luck. Some are born to beautify life, others, death."MatildaMy heart was pounding, and I could hear its beats in my ears. I didn’t know how I should feel at that moment. I was just too confused, too scared, and too disappointed.Seeing those photos made me remember every moment I spent with my mother. Beyond any mother-daughter relationship, we were friends. And she had never told me about Apollo's father. She had never mentioned the intimate relationship they obviously had. I wondered if my father knew too, if it lasted for a long time.Damn, I was nauseous.Apollo and I drove the whole way to his house in silence, lost in our thoughts. Now we had just arrived, and he was opening the door. I stepped into his home and faced a bright, comfortable living room. There were two sofas and two armchairs in front of a TV that was on, and his father was watching."Should I be expecting you?" Eros Castiello got up from the armchair and appr
