- POV ANTHONY BENNET
I hang Calista's head. I face the soldiers in front of me, next to me having Raul, Derick, Arley, and Kaio to help coordinate them.
I look at the soldiers' satisfied faces at seeing her dead. Many families, soldiers, and women died for their revelations, whether they were true about the situation didn't matter anymore.
“Their followers want war (Confrontation), and we will go to them and kill them. They are with me?"
There was a chorus of times in response, one raised his hand possibly to ask, I sighed irritably, but allowed him to speak.
“Sir, will you change the laws?” I recently found out that my wife is pregnant with a girl.
He was new, and he trembled at his revelation.
“If you fight with me, both your daughter and your wife will survive!” But, trade-off producing sons for the Clan when we return.
He gave a relieved smile and kissed
- POV KAREN MILLER“No, ma’am.”“Then how do you know I can’t come back?”“I just know, ma'am, don't make me say what I can't say,” she says. I sigh exhausted, hitched by a growing pain in my chest. “Don't keep feeding your mind with negative thoughts, that's not good, you're at a delicate moment, and you're still in shock because you're expecting a baby. Mr Bennet is experienced, if there is a conflict he will resolve it, he is one of the best I have ever met.”“How long have you been a member of the Clan?” I ask to divert my thoughts to Anthony.“I'm not part of the Clan. I’m part of Lorenzo King’s corporation.” Recently the Clan aligned ties with my boss, who is temporarily taking care of the family in BlueWater.I don't know any information.“Mister Bennet entrusted me and Solange to take ca
- POV KAIOSoft, angry Derick. I look at him the same way.“Derick, call her. Karen has him like a brother, he’s the best one to tell her what happened.”Arley says in a calm tone, standing between the two of us. Derick, still staring at me, took out his cell phone and walked away from us....I wake up hearing a knock on the door. I got up quickly and headed towards her, I was exhausted, and after getting drunk I ended up falling asleep. I see it's Agatha."my brother…"She speaks with her eyes brimming with tears, I pull her into my arms, to give her strength, because it's not easy.**MINUTES BEFORE DECLAN WAS DECLARED DEAD**I hear voices but I can't understand, darkness has taken over me. I try to draw Karen but I can't model her face in my mind, an overwhelming despair takes over me, I don't want to leave her, nor my daughte
- KAREN MILLER POVI close myself to another world to escape the spreading pain that consumes me every minute. I focus my eyes on the Light breastfeeding in my breast that was once full of milk.Less than an hour ago I was discharged, luckily, I didn't lose the baby, I couldn't bear another loss. I can't accept that Anthony died, I immediately wanted to go back to New York.“Madam, it’s Derick calling,” says Valesca.“I don’t want to talk to anyone, except have more details via phone call.”I know I won't be able to hold back the tears that want to escape along with a desperate scream from my throat for a long.It was a damn mistake to leave Anthony's side, I know little about why there was a confrontation, as the Clan was duly aligning itself with the new council. Maybe I would have avoided this if I had been by his side.Unfortunately, this won't bring Antho
- KAREN MILLER POVThe Bennet family didn't miss the opportunity to pamper both of me and Luz, I was concerned about my daughter's development, as a person, being spoiled doesn't have many strong points.Five months passed without hearing Anthony's voice, what keeps me steady is the signs he's been giving, slightly moving his fingers. In the first few months, I took the risk of sleeping next to him, as I hadn't received very strong medications, and there was a chance he could hear me, I talked to him all night, but I didn't reveal the pregnancy.Today my belly is already too visible, I can't stay by his side at night.I follow Luz as she quickly crawls to the pool area, the Bennet’s bought a larger property than before so that their grandchildren have plenty of space to play. Luz is naughty, no one can resist her cuteness.During these months I dedicated myself to learning how to be the First Lady, the
- ANTHONY BENNET POVI reluctantly allowed myself to be evaluated by the doctor I didn't know, I didn't want to ask anything, the annoyance of hearing voices I didn't want was growing inside me, it's not long before I choke the son of a bitch who insists on asking questions.“I need to look for my wife. Shut the fuck up!”The doctor walks away, finally remaining silent.“Anthony, you need to go through the assessments,” Kaio says passively, deeply stressing me with all the nonsense.I moved my legs off the bed, Derick and Kaio quickly approached when I faltered, I gave them a threatening look so they wouldn't touch me. The legs were locked.“How long did I spend in that bed?” I ask, looking at them, considering the condition of my legs."Five months!" Kaio replied. Hearing this scared me, which made me firmly plant my feet on the ground that seemed crooked ben
- KAREN MILLER POVI look serious as I listen to Arley asking for help picking out an engagement ring. He tells me his brief story about the girl who lives in Italy, whom he met while he was on a mission, I don't need details to know that the girl knows little about his existence.“How old is she, Arley?”"These matters? I want her.”I raise my eyebrows, unhappy with the answer. He was unaware of this irrational side of Arley, it could only be contagious to work with Anthony and make decisions for people, without being interested in having consent."Do you want to go now?"Arley doesn't direct her eyes directly at me, I'm still in a bikini, with nothing but the two pieces on my body. I just sat by the pool to talk to Agatha.“Yes, get dressed, Karen.”I understand your nervousness, but I feel comfortable like this without clothes."All good. Wait for m
- KAREN MILLER POVOn a beautiful sunny afternoon, Anthony asked me to marry him, making me almost have the baby due to the strong emotion I felt. I can't forget his words "Love of my life, I want it, and I want it madly, I will fight for it to be eternal"When I stop and think, remembering the beginning of this relationship, what I experience now with Anthony seems to be a lie. Accept and live with indifference, the different reality of his life, and even danger. But what could you do? I've already tried to leave, and only misfortunes have happened, I don't exist completely far from him, I need to have him close. I think this is called love.Even two months after the request, those sincere words continue to have the same effect. I said yes. And in this special moment, I say this with absolute certainty.“I know that I will love you for life, desperately I know that I will love you, and every verse of mine wil
- KAREN MILLER POVOne month later...Anthony enters the room with Luz on his lap, he has been trying to get her to sleep for over half an hour. It's funny and even unbelievable to see Anthony rocking a child, speaking in a sick voice as if he understands.Luz can only laugh preciously while listening to him, I pretend to be asleep while I breastfeed my youngest, luckily for Anthony, he is calm and spends most of the day sleeping.“Karen, that girl doesn’t want to sleep.”Anthony shakes me, impossible not to laugh at his tired and impatient expression. Luz has her little hands on his beard.“It’s your daughter, turn around, Anthony.”I close my eyes again, and I hear her loud sigh, I can't resist and I end up laughing. Carefully getting out of bed, I took Luz from his lap."Funny!"He hit my ass, going to the bathroom, he didn't have time, when h
