"Who? ",I managed to find my voice. "He calls her Anastasia ",he repeated. I paused as everything started spinning around me slowly. "I thought... I thought Anastasia is his daughter? ",I asked. He gave a short evil laugh. "Desdemona was never pregnant for Damian, she was pregnant for me and pinned it on him",he said slowly. My heart was pounding. Was Diego hearing this? Is Diego hearing all of this? Then his phone started ringing. He picked the call and had a short conversation with the person and cut the call. "Lovely meeting you Bonita, but I must go now. How about we meet later tomorrow and see what we look like naked and discuss about this Damian son huh? ",he asked licking his lips. I was so caught up in what he told me I forgot the act I was playing. I quickly brought up my seductive smile and handed him my card. "Call me.... I'll pick the location, we'll make good partners ",I said. Then he kissed my cheek and left. My heart started pounding. I placed my hand
These days have been the worse After the incidence with Riccardo , Diego flew back to Italy that very night He didn't say anything to anyone , he just went back to the house and called his plane to come pick him up Ana wasn't with us that day , he went to stay with one of Diego's friend that had a daughter of her age They took Riccardo to the red room that night and the next morning , Diego asked that they bring him back to Italy Every other person left the next day including Ana except Martins and I We had a very long conversation on our way back to Italy "In as much as I don't want to believe Riccardo , I'm scared of what's going to happen if it's true ",I said hugging my knees When we got to the plane My mind has been lost in thoughts all through I can't think of what will happen if Anastasia is not his daughter , he loves her too much " I don't even know what to say , I'm so confused like , it sounds too impossible to believe that Desdemona would cheat on Diego in gener
Her pov * * * Minutes rolled into seconds, seconds into hours, hours into days , days into weeks and weeks into one month We haven't spoken , we haven't talked These days I'm either on my own training or maybe with Martins sometimes , or I'm just in my room, listening to music or reading a book I feel like everything is falling apart and I somehow feel like it's my fault Like it's my fault I met Riccardo, maybe Diego would have just attacked him and killed him and everything goes back to normal The distance , the silence , it's just killing me inside I miss him, how he was before Always teasing me , the baby treatment , the smile , the kisses Now it's like we don't even know each other It's breaking me inside But then again, I have to remind myself why I'm here Maybe things were meant to be this way I think I've finally made up my mind on what I'm going to do I need to end all this and leave If my cousin could do this to him, I'm sure he's wondering what I can do I
I took a deep breath in and out and then walked out of the car, closing the door behind me. I stared at their graves, I think I'm more stronger now, because I am no longer filled with grief like how I was last time I came. I walked slowly to their graves with a bouquet of flowers in my hand. I turned around, Diego was standing beside me, some feets away, right next to his car with his men surrounding him. I turned back to their graves and squatted. I looked at my brothers grave with my name written on it. I chuckled a little. it's funny how I'm supposed to be there too, with them. Feets under the ground with sand above me. I dropped some flowers by my brothers grave. "I miss you, little brujà",I whispered, remembering how I use to call him a witch because he usually acts like one. I never had friends, and the few I had was nothing compared to my brother;he was unique. I remember those times I use to tell him I was ugly and I would never get married and that he would never
My eyes open slowly but my body feels numb. I groaned and rolled on the bed, I touch my arm. Didn't I just get shot moments ago? Or maybe it's just a dream? I sighed. I sat up from the bed rubbing my eyes. Then it slowly opened and I'm in a familiar room. My heart skipped a beat. This is my child hood room! What an I doing here? But this place was burnt down, was this a dream? It has to be, it just has to be. I'm panicking, I don't know why but I'm panicking. I jumped out of bed and headed for the door. I pulled it open.Then, he's standing right there with an evil smile on his face. Mario...He instantly grabs my neck and pins me to the wall. I'm struggling... I'm struggling to breathe... struggling to scream but I can't. "Did you think you could run away from me forever you beast? ",he cursed angrily as I struggle endlessly to free myself from his grip. "D.. Diego ",I choked out. He laughed evily."You thought he could save you forever huh? I warned him but he did
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm going soft . I've met broken people different times all needing my help, but I haven't seen someone this broken like Bella. And its breaking me inside . . . She's been crying nonstop these days , waking up screaming consistently . She's broken , too broken and I feel so bad that I can't do anything about it . For the past 2 weeks,she's been sleeping in my room , she hasn't left there because she sleeps all day . And the few times she wakes up,she's always crying . I have never seen her this broken .

I've been trying to calm her down assuring her that everyone will be alright but she keeps screaming that he's going to kill her and that she's going to die miserably . And it pains me so much that I can't do anything to wipe her misery away . I've never seen her this broken since I met her,she's always being st
Her pov WARNING:MENTION OF SEXUAL AND PHYSICAL ASSAULT***"I stared at myself on the mirror for a long time today. I was filled with anxiety and fear because I'm about to face a part of my most painful past. I'm going to kill Casio today. Diego told me that he would have killed him by his self but he doesn't want to take away the satisfaction from me Honestly I'm wish he actually killed him tho, because I don't think I'll be able to face that man, I might have an anxiety attack and panic and run away because seeing him might bring a Lot of ugly memories that I don't want to remember. But I have to... Diego told me that I have to. I don't know why but I'm scared of killing the man that was part of ruining my past life. I'm supposed to be happy, pleased and filled with rage and anger and kill him proudly, but I'm filled with fear and all I want to do now is get wrapped in Diego's arms and fall into a deep peaceful sleep with no nightmares.
