Three months earlier.
ISABELLAI was just starting my second semester of my career in psychology, arriving at the university, stealing glances around me as always, determined and pretending that I had the world at my feet, a mask I had created to hide a very shameful and sad reality that none of the people who look at me envying me, wanting me or even hating me could imagine thanks to the perfect image of coldness and distance that I have created over the years.I was walking to head towards my first class of the day, when I saw him, the only man who stole my attention just by looking at him, he transmitted an aura of having everything under his control, an incredible security and with a beauty and body that complemented everything else, who could ignore him? Definitely if there was a person that was not me, nor anyone else in this university, since all the women around watched him with the desire to devour him and the men looked at him with some suspicion, and how to blame them? He looked like the perfect man who can come and take everything that belongs to you and you won't be able to do anything to defend yourself, looking quite tall, maybe a head and a half taller than me, with a muscular, toned body and a narrow waist, gray eyes, with slightly full lips and a strong jaw, he also had a low trimmed beard, short brown hair and all this was complemented with a black turtleneck sweater with rolled up sleeves revealing a pair of his strong forearms and gray dress pants with a black belt, impossible to go unnoticed looking like that. So much so that as much as I wanted to avoid it I let myself be carried away and my mask of coldness fell when I stared at him almost hypnotized by his beauty and he looked back at me, but he saw me differently, I don't know if I imagined it but I felt as if he was the hunter and I was the prey, I had to back away quickly to avert my gaze and get rid of that feeling, after all, he was probably a teacher and I didn't know him and I didn't want to meet him either, even though my body was screaming to get closer, but I was a rational girl who listened to her mind which was screaming 'danger'.So I continued to my first class of the day, trying to keep my thoughts away from those gray eyes that catch you and the sensations it awakens in me, I entered the classroom and sat in one of the first seats ignoring everyone around me, I didn't like or had much time to try and meet new people, I already had my only friend and two friends I knew since high school and that's enough for me, I had to concentrate and finish my career as soon as possible."Hi Isa" pronounced Caroline with a beautiful smile where her dimples stood out sitting next to me.She was really beautiful, she was tall, with a perfectly proportioned and beautiful body, with her chocolate colored hair and her almond eyes."Hi" I greeted her smiling back, after all she was my only friend.One of the few people I had let into my life and get to know me a little more than the rest, her and her boyfriend Mike I had known since elementary school and Andrew my other best friend I met in high school and I was thankful to know them, they were great, funny, kind and gentle people. Thank God they broke through the barriers I put between me and everyone else, because at this point I don't know what I would do without them."Guess what, I think I just saw the love of my life, he's beautiful yet intimidating" He said in a low tone, with a flirtatious smile.When I heard this I could guess perfectly who she was referring to, as Caroline doesn't get attention from just anyone, after all she has a great and very handsome boyfriend who loves her and she loves him."Does he have gray eyes and is he dressed in a black sweater? If that's him, he's definitely intimidating.""Wait, even you thought he was intimidating? Wow now I'm really scared of him" she said with a shudder and a playful smile."Better stop talking about him, how are things going with Mike?" I asked opening my notebook, to divert the topic away from the man I wanted to get off my mind." Well we haven't seen each other in two weeks since we both went on trips to different places but we should see each other today, how about you come and have lunch with us?""Forget it, I don't want to interrupt your precious couple time when you haven't seen each other in weeks and my dad arrives on a trip today."After telling her that she just grimaced and we waited for the teacher in silence. When I finished my classes I left for home as soon as possible in case my dad arrived early, I didn't want him to arrive and not find me already at home.When I arrived, my dad was still not home, so I had lunch with Mirtha and I distracted myself watching TV, when it was time for dinner and I heard him arrive, so I got out of bed to go down to the dining room where surely Mirtha would already have all the food ready, because my dad hated to wait."Hi dad" I greeted him with a forced smile as I entered the dining room."Hurry up and sit down and eat at once" he said with a slightly annoyed tone, so I just nodded and sat down in front of him.The meal passed quietly after that and we didn't talk anymore, he and I spoke very little if it wasn't to scold me or give me orders, he barely spoke to me and I didn't want to talk to him much either, so when I finished I retired to my room relieved.The next morning I woke up and got ready to go to the university praying that my dad had already gone to work so I wouldn't meet him so early, but I knew I wasn't so lucky when I found him in the dining room eating his breakfast and reading the news."Good morning" I greeted and he just gave a nod and continued eating, so I just took a coffee and a toast to leave, when I was already leaving the dining room he stopped me."You have to be early, I don't want to wait too long for lunch" he said leaving the cup of coffee on the table waiting for my confirmation of understanding."Okay" I said giving him another of my fake smiles and finally leaving the dining room, it was no longer necessary for him to remind me, that was my routine, I knew that as soon as I finished my last class I had to go home as soon as possible, to be at peace I had to always obey, I could not put anything at stake when things between us are tense and the only thing it takes for something to go wrong is a mistake on my part.My life since I was a child, when my mother left, has been like walking constantly on broken glass, I always have to be careful where I step and it is so unbearable and exhausting, that sometimes the only thing I want is to forget about everything, stop keeping up appearances and live, not thinking about my father, nor about finishing my career or saving money, simply about nothing or maybe only about someone, because since I saw him I have not been able to get his gaze out of my mind and I like that thanks to his instruction I have not been so tense.I like that thinking about those eyes, it takes me out a little of the stress and the constant fear that I feel every day, it is a strange novelty to my life because I had never felt physically attracted to anyone, but that man attracts me and a lot, he has something in him that unsettles me, I do not know if it is all his beauty, his powerful aura or the way he looks at me, that nothing else should produce fear in me, but it is not so with his look causes other sensations that I find it hard to understand.And that at the same time terrifies me to discover, I don't have time for these things, I know I can't get unfocused from my objective thinking about this man and wanting to get close to him, it's something I can't afford and that my dad wouldn't allow me either, but it's so alluring that I feel like a moth going straight into the fire to end up in flames.Because what I think I saw in his eyes was a strange mix of emotions, but they weren't good, which is quite strange because I've never seen it before in my life. Or could I be imagining it all? Am I being neurotic? Most likely, my brain is creating these illusions to make me understand that I shouldn't go near him.ALEXANDERI was just arriving when I saw her, the only reason why I came here with the excuse of doing a master's degree, Isabella Alarcon looking as beautiful as anyone I had ever seen before, somewhat cold and even she looked innocent and fragile, she looked like a fucking angel, something unreachable, who could say that under that angelic appearance was a rotten soul? If I didn't know her past I would be fooled by her beauty, I would want to take her and protect her from this cruel world, but instead I know her so much that I will definitely not be her protector but I am of the person who wants to harm her, who wants to destroy her. But the moment we crossed glances even though I just want to destroy her world as I destroy my little sister's, something about her caught me, it was almost electrifying, those blue eyes enveloped me and I was almost grateful when she withdrew her gaze, I kept watching her until she finally got out of my sight, I had already seen her in pictures but in
ALEXANDERAfter thinking that I would not have time to approach Isabella that day, as I drove to my hotel, I quickly realized how wrong I was and I had luck on my side, perhaps a higher power if it existed wanted me to make this girl pay for all her sins. Apparently her car had broken down, an Audi that her dad probably bought her with money that didn't belong to her.What good timing for me that I was lucky enough to run into her on my way to the hotel where I was staying, needing help and this time I could play the role of savior, so I quickly parked and walked over to her to offer my help.-Hello, what's wrong? If you want I can take a look at it" I offered and she jumped when she noticed my presence, she looked beautiful with her loose hair waving against the wind, her porcelain cheeks blushing, while wearing a high black pants that outlined her beautiful curves very well that combined with a white blouse with a v-neckline, but at the same time she looked a little worried."Yes, p
ISABELLAEntering my house I was very nervous and not only for facing my father, after being late but also for Alexander, this man had something in him that attracted me more than I would like to admit, I had never met someone like that and I had never felt what I feel when I see him or when he touches me, that electricity I felt when he took my arm has me totally disconcerted, wanting to discover if every touch of his will feel like that, but I know this man has something dangerous about him, I know it by the way he looks at me and I know I don't have to get close but that's all I want when I see him, all the control and confidence he exudes makes me want to be close, it seems like nothing could bring him down and no one could control him, he makes you feel like he can dominate the world easily, that's what attracts me the most besides his stunning good looks and those beautiful grey eyes that cast a spell on you."Why the fuck are you so late?" asked my father angrily as he approach
ALEXANDERHow funny it is to see a hopeful person think that he can still be saved, that he can still cheat, that there is still a way out, when the more he fights the deeper he sinks into the trap you carefully designed. It is really gratifying to see them think that they can still win, that they are above and there is no law for them, when everything is already lost, when you know how everything will end, I definitely love this game.Poor man who doesn't really know what awaits him, but I do, that's why I finished sending other instructions to my subordinates and more information to the police, everything going as planned. Now that I am done I have to get ready for my dinner with Isabella...."Hello" she greeted as she opened the door and sat in the car with a shy smile, looking more beautiful than ever, she was dressed in a short pink dress with princess sleeves, tight at the top, highlighting her waist and loose at the bottom, with her beautiful hair in a high ponytail and low wh
ISABELLAIt had already been a week since my first kiss with Alexander and we had gone out three more times, luckily my dad had not yet arrived from his trip and I had been able to go out with him and enjoy time together and above all kiss, kiss a lot. When I was with him I could forget about everything, about every single thing that burdened my mind, I could finally relax and just let myself go and do something forbidden, I knew that this was very bad and that Alexander was not a good man for me but it felt so good to be with him, this was the best thing that had happened to me, being with him I felt so alive, so happy that I just did not want to think about the consequences that clearly there would be, because there always are.But today once again I could forget about all that with him, I was waiting for him to see a movie, Mirtha had the day off today and would be back tomorrow, so we could spend some time alone. The doorbell rang and I went to open it running and he was standing
ISABELLA The days passed and things with Alexander were going very well, I loved being with him, I enjoyed it so much, he made me feel totally alive, although we had not yet taken the next step in our relationship I hope it will be very soon, I was dying to give myself totally to him and I had already lost a little more fear after the last sessions in which pleasure consumed us.The only thing that tormented my mind was the return of my father, that would complicate everything, I do not know how I will continue to see Alexander, but somehow I had to do it, right now I do not want to be without him, so I will definitely find a way to see him...."Dad can I go to Caroline's today? I need to do some work they sent and it's very important.""Why the fuck do you have to go? Do it by yourself" he asks already a little annoyed."Dad is that the teacher clearly said that it had to be in a group, besides it's very difficult, please, I promise I'll get there early, if you want I can call Caro
ALEXANDERAs soon as Isabella left I knew I had something very important to do, after all I needed time with her so she could fall into my trap. Although what I'm feeling for her almost makes me turn back, because I still can't believe that this beautiful girl can be so bad and do so much damage, she seems like an angel, being with her achieves something in me that in my 25 years of life I had never felt, she gives me peace, happiness and an uncontrolled passion and possessiveness, everything with her fits and makes me want to do anything to see her smile and destroy anyone who wants to harm her.And I almost left my whole plan of coming here behind, I almost made the decision to go back to where I came from and take care of the company and be with my family, forget about Isabella forever because despite not wanting to hurt her I know I could never be with her, not after what she did to my sister, I could not betray her that way, I could not betray myself that way, but then I saw my l
ISABELLA When I was getting up the next day to go to classes the pain in my back was really unbearable, even though Mirtha after my dad left came to my room and gave me something for the pain and put cream on the bruises, whenever she hit me she always came to help me to heal the wounds, my dad didn't know or maybe he did but he didn't care, since he knew that neither of us would do anything to denounce his abuse.Anyway, in spite of his effort my back hurt too much and when I saw it in the mirror I couldn't hold back my desire to cry, it was totally marked with the marks of the belt, small cuts and bruises on it, it was too sad to know that my dad was capable of doing something like that to me.I don't think he had ever left my back as hurt as yesterday, his blows were stronger than they normally are and they were also more.Right now is when I want to get away from all this, but as always there is something that stops me, I know that if I can't get far enough away for lack of money
