160: Stop It

Camila took a deep breath and excused herself, walking to the door. She felt uneasy the moment she saw who was standing outside. It was Antonio. He smiled faintly. “Aren’t you going to let me in?” Camila hesitated, then sighed. “My bad,” she muttered, stepping aside. Antonio walked in, but the moment his eyes landed on Ruby, he froze. His expression shifted from smile to shock. “Ruby?” he asked, confused. “How… how are you here? Last I heard, Hector Morales captured you. And I know Hector.” Ruby tensed immediately. She didn’t know who Antonio was, and the way he spoke made her uncomfortable. His questions felt like an interrogation, and she wasn’t in the mood for that. Camila noticed Ruby’s discomfort. She stepped between them. “Antonio, this isn’t the time,” she said firmly. “I’ll call you later, and we’ll talk. But right now, I need you to leave.” Antonio looked at her, then back at Ruby. He raised his hands in surrender. “Alright,” he said. “I’ll wait for your

161: Big Trouble

Antonio paced back and forth in his apartment, his hands raking through his hair. His mind was spinning. The way Ruby had acted when he saw her at Camila’s place… she had avoided his questions. It wasn’t hard to tell she was hiding something. And now he couldn’t let it go. He grabbed his phone and started making calls. One after the other, he reached out to his contacts—people connected to Hector Morales. People who always had the latest updates on what was happening in Panama’s underworld. But nothing prepared him for what he learned. Ruby had stabbed Hector. And then she had run. Antonio stopped pacing and stood frozen in place. “Damn it,” he muttered. He couldn’t believe it. Ruby had tried to kill Hector Morales. And somehow, she was still breathing. His thoughts immediately turned to Camila. “She’s in danger,” he told himself. If Hector’s men found Ruby, and Camila was with her, it could mean trouble. Big trouble. Antonio clenched his fists. “I can’t let an

162: Danger

Almost an hour later, Camila texted Antonio to let him know she had arrived at the hotel. He quickly replied with the room number. She made her way to the elevator and went up to meet him, her mind half-focused on Ruby and the other half wondering what Antonio was so eager to say. What neither of them knew was that Antonio’s earlier phone call had already set off a dangerous chain of events. Word had spread fast—faster than Antonio had expected. A group of Hector’s enemies, who had been keeping their distance after their last failed attempt on his life, were suddenly on the move again. This time, they weren’t going after Hector directly. They had a new target. The woman Hector loved. “She’s all alone,” their leader said, a cruel smile pulling at his mouth. “Let’s see how broken Hector becomes when he loses her.” Inside the hotel room, Camila stepped in and glanced around. Her brow lifted, mildly impressed. “Wow,” she said, scanning the small but neatly decorated space. “No

163: This Is On Me

Gunshots exploded through the house, shattering the windows. Glass rained down like sharp confetti, splintering across the floor. Furniture toppled over. Bullet holes ripped through the walls like paper. Ruby’s ears rang from the sound of it all. The underling grabbed her by the wrist and yanked her down behind a wall. “Stay low!” he barked. His voice was tight, controlled, but there was fear in his eyes. Ruby’s breathing was ragged. She fumbled for her phone with shaking hands and dialed Camila’s number. “Pick up… pick up,” she muttered under her breath. But there was nothing. No answer. Just the endless ring. “Who are you calling?” the underling snapped, peering around the corner with his weapon ready. “My friend,” Ruby replied. “Camila. She’s a cop. If she picks up, she’ll send backup.” But Camila wasn’t picking up. Ruby cursed under her breath and quickly typed out a text message: “Under attack. Send backup. Men with guns. Hurry.” The underling checked his magazi

164: To Protect You

Hector nodded slowly. He understood Hunter, even though it tore at him. But he wasn’t the type to sit still. Gritting his teeth, he began moving toward his gun, ignoring the sharp pain in his chest. Hunter grabbed his shoulder, trying to stop him. "Don’t be reckless," Hunter warned. But Hector shook his head. "You don't get it, do you?Ruby needs me. I can’t just sit here while she’s dying out there." "Alright, I’ll go." Carlos suddenly said. Hector blinked, surprised. Carlos gave him a crooked grin. "Get me their location. I’ll find them." Relief flooded Hector’s face. "Thank you," he said. He quickly called his underling, who was still on the run with Ruby. The underling answered on the first ring. "Boss." "I’m sending my brother to get you. Turn on your GPS so he can track you." Hector instructed. The underling didn’t hesitate. "It’s on. Coordinates are live." Hector exhaled. "Keep Ruby alive. Do whatever it takes." "I will," came the reply. As soon a

165: Regret

Hector paced the floor, his steps uneven, as though the weight in his chest was too much to bear. His mind raced with a hundred thoughts, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not settle his nerves. His temples pounded, his heart thudded painfully against his ribs, and still he continued walking, back and forth, like a man who had lost all sense of time. His brothers, Manuel and Hunter, exchanged worried glances as they watched him unravel, the strain evident in every tense line of his body. Manuel stood from where he had been sitting and crossed his arms, his brow furrowed as he stared at Hector. “You need to sit down,” he said firmly. “You’ve lost a lot of blood, and you’re not giving yourself time to heal.” Hunter spoke next, his tone less sharp but no less urgent. “Manuel’s right. You shouldn’t be up walking around like this. You’re restless, fine—but this isn’t helping you. You need to rest or you’re going to collapse.” But Hector only shook his head, his jaw clenched

166: Here You Are

Ruby picked up her gun, tightening her grip around it, her knuckles pale against the cold metal as she braced herself for the worst. She had already accepted there was no way out. But she would not go down without a fight. If they wanted to kill her, they would have to bleed for it first. Her chest heaved with each shallow breath, her eyes fixed on the shadows ahead, waiting for the first movement..... waiting for them to charge at her so she could shoot. She wasn’t sure she had the strength to kill, but she was going to fight anyway. The air was filled with silence, broken only by the muffled sound of approaching footsteps. Her heartbeat was a roar in her ears, her stomach twisted with fear. The men were getting closer. She could almost feel them closing in. She bit the inside of her cheek hard enough to taste blood as she held her breath and raised the gun higher, her finger tightening on the trigger. But before they could get to her, gunshots suddenly erupted, sharp and loud,

167: It Is What It Is

When Camila arrived at the scene with Antonio trailing behind her, her heart was pounding in her chest. She spotted a white car parked at the far end of the close, its engine humming softly as if preparing to leave. She froze for a moment, uncertain whether the person inside was an enemy or someone connected to Ruby. Panic gripped her as she called out Ruby’s name, her voice echoing sharply through the narrow street littered with bodies and stained with fresh blood. As if responding to her voice, the white car suddenly turned, its tires crunching over gravel and broken glass as it pulled away from the scene without haste. Camila watched it disappear around the corner, her instincts telling her that whoever had been in that car was dangerous. Still, she stood her ground in the middle of the wreckage, turning in slow circles, searching. Her chest ached as dread formed a tight knot inside it. Then, faintly, she heard her name. "Camila!" The voice was weak but unmistakable. Her gaze

168: Blue Pill

Hector slowly opened his eyes, his vision still blurry from the pain. As the world around him began to come into focus, he noticed Carlos sitting beside him, his expression calm but attentive. Hector’s mind was racing, and the first thing he needed to know was whether Ruby was okay. Weakly, he reached out and placed a hand on Carlos’s arm. “How did it go?” Hector asked, his voice barely above a whisper. “Is she safe?” Carlos nodded, his face hardening slightly. “Yes. I got to her just in time. She's fine now. We got her away from the danger.” He paused, then added, “I sent your right-hand underling to the hospital because he was shot. He'll be treated, and he'll live.” Hector closed his eyes in relief, the tension leaving his shoulders. His mind had been a blur of panic for the past few hours, but hearing that Ruby was safe helped to soothe the storm inside him. “Thank you,” Hector whispered, tapping Carlos’s hand lightly in gratitude. His eyes shifted toward Hunter, who stood n

169: Stay With Us

Carlos sighed, a faint, thoughtful smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "Well, I guess I understand to some extent." Hunter turned toward him, his brows lifting in surprise. "Really?" There was a hint of disbelief in his voice, as if he hadn't expected Carlos to be carrying something close to his chest. "Have you fallen in love or something?" Carlos exhaled slowly, as though weighing his words before letting them out. "Well, I wouldn't really call it love," he admitted, his voice low and distant, as if he was still figuring it out himself. "There’s just... someone I can’t get off my mind these days." Hunter gave him a knowing look and nodded. "Good for you," he said simply, not pressing further, respecting whatever boundaries his brother had just drawn. Manuel, however, was less impressed. He shook his head with an exaggerated roll of his eyes and muttered, "You guys are impossible." He pushed himself away from the wall where he had been standing and crossed his arms tig
