And when the next morning came, the day was ripe for the limitless fun people found only in Vegas. Lora Lins got up from her huge bed, in front of a winter fireplace, feeling like the most privileged woman in town for having that vision.Lora put on her fine silk robe and walked out of the room. The sunny morning shimmered outside the apartment, illuminating the sins of Las Vegas, gilding its promiscuous image. The room was filled with large windows, all facing the most desirable part of the city, the Strip.Even with the blinding glare of the sun, her day took on shadows when she arrived in the apartment's living room and found her father. Jean Lins was sitting on one of the sofas in the living room, next to a man in a suit and Drake. His friend looked like a surfer next to two mercenaries; completely displaced. He wore pajamas while the men wore dark suits. The image clearly said that Lora and Drake had been approached without any warning.- "Good morning" she closed the robe more p

At first, the car made a slow turn. The speed did not reach one hundred kilometers per hour. The pilot was just getting to know the power of the engine, letting his experience take care of the moment.On the second lap, his foot weighed on the pedal. Every second the sports car got faster, finishing the curves in record time. Evans was focused but also relaxed. That was the only time he could turn off all his senses and worry only about crossing the finish line.When he passed the pit stop, the booming and powerful noise was even more explicit. Steady, steady accelerating made the tires resonate with friction on the asphalt.Fascinated by Evans' headstrong way of driving, Lora couldn't contain the urge to get up. The woman was too agitated to watch from afar. And as she walked forward, she heard the taps of Lana's heels. The blonde was leaving the racetrack pavilion and entering the safe side of the track.- "Lora" she called. The sound was muffled by the car's engine growling in acce

( Behold, it appears from nowhere And time is closing around it If nothing is going very well in the drinker's life With her here, it will only get worseI'll tell you what it's like, wherever you are You're totally speechless You can't speak anymore, like someone who sees you freeze The moment she enters the salonAnd he'll drink, he'll fall, get up and start drinking again Only with a lot of sacrifice he gets home in the morning Until then, it's okay, but it's every day, yes, another one tooAnd all this is the fault of the Devil Woman Who pursues me at night everywhere But if it wasn't for the horn and the tail I wouldn't be able to stand itAnyone is intimidated if caught in his gaze Feels all his luck is gone.And he'll drink, he'll fall, get up and start drinking again Only with a lot of sacrifice he gets home in the morning Until then, it's okay, but it's every day, yes, another one tooAnd all this is the fault of the Devil Woman Who pursues me at night everywhere But i

While her father and friend had a pleasant conversation at the table, Lora kept her attention on the table by the windows. She wanted to, but couldn't help but look at that man. He was handsome in an intense way, the kind that made people uncomfortable around him. The blonde who accompanied him was also pretty, but next to him, she'd only served as a background.- "Why is Mr. Donovan here?" Drake asked at some point in the conversation.- "He has business in all branches, maybe that's why. Or maybe he's just Miss Donovan's escort"Lora knew the second option was unfeasible. Evans wasn't the type to accompany someone. He needed, necessarily, to be the number one person. However, she did not want to discuss this issue.Lora looked at Evans, wishing she could go back in time, but content with the sight of him taking a sip from her bubbly glass. He didn't seem involved in the conversation around him, though everyone was clearly intent on capturing his attention.- "Is he always at these e

- "Don't even try to escape, Banks. We're going to a club when the parade is over, whether you're accompanied or not"Will was sociable. He liked to go out, enjoy his life and push the limits whenever he could. He was easy and accessible to everyone, always smiling and showing his best side. On the other hand, his friend did not have any of the aforementioned characteristics.They were several feet away from the walkway, for two reasons. Evans didn't want to find Lora, having decided she was a part of the past. And then he didn't like crowds. Not that people were stupid enough to treat Evans Donovan like part of the crowd.Will thought for a moment about asking about Lora. But if she'd learned anything about Evans, and she certainly had, it was that he wasn't the type to call the next day. And if the redhead wasn't his companion anymore, that meant he'd won the trophy and crossed the finish line without ever having to look back.- "See, Mack is here" Will tilted the glass of whiskey h
