GINEVRA "Julia?" "Oh God. . .no. . .no. . .no." I found myself in a dark, smoke-filled alleyway, when a ray of light appeared in a corner, I followed its direction until I got to the end of it where the light shone so bright. But all of that changed in a split second. There was blood, too much of it, flowing like a river towards my direction, threatening to drown me. I looked down and found that Julia was laying lifeless on the ground, all burnt up and disfigured. I called out to her many times, yet, I was met with silence. I leaned down, attempting to graze her face with my fingers when her eyes shot open, blood spewing out of them. "You left me." Her thunderous, monstrous voice ricocheted. The blood which had been drowning me suddenly dried up. I took to my heels, screaming for help while Julia chased after me. "You fucking coward, they killed me and you let them breathe. I hate you; I hate leaving everything to you. You're a disappointment." Her voice kept ringing in my e
CREATED FOR RUIN CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE
RICARDO Death, one word that carried depth. Something that had never and will never be evitable. It creeped up at your doorstep, taking you unaware just when your life began holding meaning. The funniest thing about death was how many people begged for it, yet, it didn’t come. Many people forced it upon themselves. And many people planned out how it'd play out for them. Death was dreaded by all, yet, a lot of people obsessed over it—I might’ve been one of those people who were obsessively fascinated by death. How else could I describe the way I lived my life? Hiding from people, taking up the name—Ghost, living in the shadows. . . I lived a baseless life until I met my doom and she pulled me out of the shadows and made me her own; her target. The first time I met Ginevra Rodriguez, I knew I was doomed. What was more baffling was the knowing that she was my ruin, still, I couldn't keep my distance. That was who she was, an enchantress. She pulled me all the way in and entrap

GINEVRA I put on an all back overall, black combat boots, a red wig, and enough make up to help enhance my disguise as I readied myself to attend Ricardo's funeral. My friends thought it an extremely bad idea to be around the Sanchez's at a time like this—a time when they were burying their son who was murdered by me, but I had no care in the world. How could I bring myself to stay home while a better part of me was being put into the ground? How could I sit there knowing that if I at least had a little bit of control over my intrusive thoughts, then we wouldn't have been in that messed up situation? Ten days, one week and three days ago, I shot Ricardo twice. In his heart. And ever since that day, I had been in the run. I could never forget that night when I suffered a panic attack and the chaos that ensued immediately Alex had left with Ricardo's lifeless body. I could never forget how I scrunched myself up in a corner, clawing at my head, neck and face in attempt to shut out t

GINEVRA My eyebrows creased together in confusion but before I could say anything, my earpiece activated. "You've been spotted, Ginevra, and unless you're hell bent on dying, get the hell out of there!" Paulo hollered. "I think what he meant was. . .run!" Izzy yelled and I took off. "Give me a fucking break," Harley sneered. Gunshots rippled around her like fireworks. My situation too, wasn't any better considering half the henchmen of the Sanchez's were pursuing me like their life depended on it. They wanted to take me in alive but that didn't stop them from sending bullets my way. I ran until my black SUV double crossed me and I jumped inside, panting and choking on my cough as my lungs were on fire. "Look who made it," Dominico jested. Meaning to chuckle, a groan escaped my throat when I felt a sting on my arm. My eyes snapped to my arm and I found Raul trying to stop the blood flow by applying pressure on the wound I didn't even realize was there. That was how numb I was p

GINEVRA The feeling of satisfaction, of fulfillment when you've dedicated all your life to something and you see it coming into fruition. That was the feeling I had running through my blood streams tonight as I stood there in front of my father, brother, mother, and sisters in their huge living area, having them torture and humiliate me; only they weren't aware it was going to be the last time. I held that smirky smile on my face as Gustavo relentlessly slammed his fist against my jaw, all the while screaming and cursing me out for being the reason why a hit was sanctioned on the Rodriguez's. One thing my family was unaware of was the fact that it was I who bore their last name that sanctioned a hit on them. And as they stupidly assumed that I was being tortured, my men were outside, making their estate into a slaughter house and all I had to do was stand there and wait for my special guests to arrive. They had no idea what was about to be done to them. I was going to exploit thei

GINEVRA I slapped Dario across the face, laughter bubbling against my throat. “You gave me power? Me?”I laughed again, shaking my head in disbelief."You ruined me. You fucking ruined me. No doubt you gave me a name but I had to work twice as hard for the power that came with that name. Everything I have today was my hard work not yours!" My breath became erratic and I looked over at where Izzy and the others stood to find their jaws gaped open as they gave me the look I detested, "I don't like to be pitied." I gritted and they all looked away. "You and Gustavo did all of that to me while your wife and daughter watched and laughed in amusement." I breathed as I grabbed a dagger from the tool bag and walked over to where Sofia and Emma were tied up. Pointing the dagger at my—foster—mother, I scoffed evilly and yanked her head back by her hair. "You watched while I cried and begged you," I plunged my dagger deep into her left eye, twisting it until her eyeball popped out of its s

GINEVRA But then Izzy had this unsatisfied look on her face. . .as though she wanted more and I'd agree with her if that was the case. "I really hate that face of yours, what a shame a good looking man like you had to be this wicked and disgusting," Izzy said and knelt before my father, placing both his hands on her shoulders before tsking. "This one is for my girl," she muffled and looked back at me, gaining a subtle smile from me. "Not that I care, but hold on tight especially when it hurts because it's going to hurt bad." She breathed and began peeling the skin of my father's face. My father's lifeless screams, Elena's and Gustavo’s terrified whimpers became music to my ears while my eyes stayed glued on Izzy as she perfectly skinned my father’s face until it was just his skull left. By the time the whole act was done, Dario had already given in to the cold hands of death. Shame. Raul didn't participate in the torture of Dario Rodriguez and because of that, Gustavo was handed
CREATED FOR RUIN CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN
GINEVRA Walking down the empty, extremely quiet hallway of my underground house, my heart began pounding hard against my rib cage as I wondered how I'd bring myself to break this news to Izzy. But it was something I needed to do, it was something that unsettled for a really long time and I finally would love to open up about it to someone that might understand. About two weeks ago, I had successfully wiped out the Rodriguez's and of course successfully convinced the whole of Italy and its underworld that I was dead. Except for a few people who saw through my little game, but they'd have to die before they'd be able to find me and prove otherwise. Out of fourteen days, I took seven and rested until I was feeling refreshed and renewed. But one thing that never let me have a good night rest was the knowing that Ricardo was alive somewhere, probably waiting for me to figure it out and find him or not. But wasn't that what curiosity did to a person? trick your mind until it stripped you
