An agreement between heirs Chapter 10 - Wedding Days (Part 1)
By Hector MarquesAfter saying goodbye to Catherine, I entered my room and was able to allow myself to be taken by all the sensations that my heart insisted on overflowing. I felt strange in a way that I still couldn’t understand what was happening, but the feeling that now I’m not the same Hector as before was something that was really bothering me. All I had to do was let the days pass so I could find out what fate had in store for me at that wedding.First day after the weddingThe next morning I woke up and got scared when I saw the time. It was past eight in the morning. I felt my body exhausted and could stay in bed for the rest of the day without complaining, but I decided to get up to do my morning hygiene and go down to meet Catherine, who would probably already be awake.I felt very strange waking up on a Sunday morning in a new home carrying the status of married to the heiress of the De Castro family. Soon I who never dreamed of marrying... I went downstairs and the house
An agreement between heirs Chapter 11 - Wedding Days (Part 2)
By Hector Marques weeks laterContrary to what I imagined, the days were passing quickly and gradually Catherine and I were adapting to our new reality. Although our differences were glaring, we had not yet come into conflict for anything, and as much as it was clear the dissatisfaction of the other when I left the night to meet Stella in her apartment, Catherine said nothing. She didn’t even ask where I was going or what time I was coming home, just kept quiet. Part of me was upset by the awkward situation, but I didn’t want to live for work and home, so I thought it was fair to go out and have fun with friends.However I could not deny that every day I was a little more enchanted by the sweet way of the woman who shared that house with me. Gradually I knew a little more of Catherine and it was not as if it was possible to be indifferent. She was a very attentive companion, always showing concern if I had fed or needed something before we slept.Catherine always did everything possi
An agreement between heirs Chapter 12 - Deception
By Catherine This time Hector had pushed all the boundaries. After months that I had been closing my eyes to the slips that he gave, I could not believe that he had come to this point. I looked indignantly at the article I read on the tablet. A mixture of anger with disappointment invaded my chest, after all I expected him to respect the commitment he agreed to have with me."Apparently people don’t change so easily. The news of the day is that a few months after their marriage, Hector Marques was seen entering an unknown condominium the night before. And then you ask, What’s wrong with that? According to the information gathered, Hector was seen entering the place, but the same did not leave, that is, the newlywed spent the night outside the house, which is very strange since he has a woman waiting for him. The question is, what does your wife think about that? Always demure the poor lady Catherine De Castro Marques, is exposed for the first time in a bombastic news involving her f
An agreement between heirs Chapter 13 – Putting things right
By HectorUntil that moment I still didn’t have much approach with my wife’s cousin, but in few minutes beside her it was already possible to notice that she was super high mood, a little crazy I confess, but I liked her way a little bit. We arrived at the place and a chill in my stomach hit me, na anxiety to see the woman I was married to made me practically resort to the stairs, waiting for the lift was too much time wasted.“You’re nervous.” Daiana stated as she looked at me. “I never thought I would see you like this.”“Like this?” I asked not understanding what she meant by that.“Yeah, like this all excited to see my cousin.”She didn’t ask, Daiana was simply stating what I was trying to hide, it made me uncomfortable. The fact that I was being too transparent was new to me, who always knew how to hide my emotions very well.“I just want to resolve this situation. Your cousin is difficult and must be wanting to kill me right now.”We finally entered the lift.“Of that I have no
An agreement between heirs Chapter 14 – Almost Kiss
By CatherineWhen I saw Hector standing in the doorway of Patrick’s flat my only urge was to choke him. I felt anger and was very hurt that he had allowed things to get to that point. However, what bothered me the most was the internal confusion I felt. As strange as it was, I confess that the title of betrayed woman was what mattered least to me at that moment. I know that Hector didn’t believe that he owed me fidelity, after all for him our marriage was nothing more than na obligation imposed by our parents, but imagining him touching another woman bothered me more than I expected, more than I desired and it was making me go into na outburst.I didn’t want to hear Hector’s explanations, but when he started talking and I looked into his eyes I felt the sincerity in everything he said and it was inevitable at that moment not to feel the happiness that invaded me and calmed my heart, which put me on alert, I couldn’t let myself get involved like that.Hector, the idiot, decided to stay
An agreement between heirs Chapter 15 – Doing the right thing
By HectorAfter I almost kissed Catherine that day, I talked to Kaique about it. Of course it wasn’t surprising that it happened, after all she was very beautiful. It was to be expected that at some point I would end up feeling attracted to my wife. The problem was that I didn’t count on this attraction arising along with feelings that were leaving me confused. It was almost as if I had a need to care for and protect Catherine like I had never done with another woman before.If before I was already frightened by the sensations I felt every time I saw my wife, after my friend said that he thought I was falling in love with Catherine, I found myself lost and confused by my own feelings.I decided then to follow Kaique’s advice, and despite the difficulty I found to approach Catherine after the misunderstanding of that day, whenever possible I did it. Kaique had told me that to discover what I really felt for my wife it would be necessary to allow me to be near her, to be more present in
An agreement between heirs Chapter 16 – Special Care
By HectorIt was 11 a.m. and I was still stuck in the middle of a meeting attended by my father, my father-in-law and some shareholders. In other times at that hour I would still be sleeping completely taken by the hangover result of a night of alcohol and sex. Catherine had stayed at home, as she had felt unwell in the morning, so it was up to me to pass on the information about the balance sheet of the month to everyone present.Luckily or unluckily, my mobile phone rang and my home phone number appeared. I immediately found it strange and without thinking twice I asked permission to answer the call, even under my father’s disapproving glance.“Hi Joanna, did something happen?”“Sorry to bother you Mr Hector. It’s just that Ms Catherine is in bed feeling really bad, I don’t know what else to do.” It was enough for Joana to say that for my chest to tighten. “The poor thing is burning up with fever, but she’s too stubborn, she hasn’t taken any medicine and she can’t eat anything eithe
An agreement between heirs Chapter 17 – Sweet Taste
By CatherineWhen I saw Hector abandoning na important meeting with the company board so he could take care of me, I couldn’t be indifferent to it. Even if I had a heart of stone at that moment I couldn’t act coldly towards that man. He was being caring and loving, and I couldn’t deny to myself how happy I felt to be his priority at that moment.It wasn’t long before he returned from the shower and appeared in my room dressed in completely light and casual clothes. He smiled and I reciprocated, still admiring his muscular body. Who could resist a man like that?Hector sat next to me on the bed looking uncertain whether or not he would approach me.“Have you chosen the movie yet?” He asked.“Yes, I want to watch Love Doesn’t Take a Holiday.”He looked at me accusingly and grimaced as if I was about to commit a crime.“Romance?” He questioned.“What’s wrong with it? I think it’s cute.”“Okay then, right? Let’s go with romance.”I watched him as he clumsily adjusted the cushions on his b
