I hugged myself at some point that night, I woke up feeling the presence of the only person who never abandoned me, myself. I got up, took a shower, chose a beautiful outfit and took advantage of the fact that it was a Sunday to visit Suzane. Or rather, to visit your husband and find out what my brother's notebook meant.Hunter was at least ten minutes away checking the spine, the cover, the lines, and the gritty handwriting that contained the middle of the notebook. Suzane was playing with the babies stuck in strollers, pushing them gently as she sat by the pool. Her husband didn't watch me with worries or fear when I handed the notebook and asked if he knew what it meant. At least Hunter never believed that I could become the new head of the Brotherhood. And I still didn't know if I considered it an affront or an insult.The night before, he was very willing to tell me what the police insisted on hiding me, and that seemed like a vote of confidence. Of course, he understood all kind

"Could you tell me if the other names also belong to my brother's inner circle? "I questioned, reopening the pages. "I did some research on the internet. I heard that most of these people are still alive. Others died of mysterious and natural causes. But I wonder why my brother would have this kind of thing without a greater reason than just a future blackmail. Because there's nothing written here. Nothing that can catch the attention of the police if the notebook fell into the wrong hands. No real proof, other than his writing, that these people may have had anything to do with the kidnapped boys. Why write their names in a notebook if you couldn't deliver them in the future?”"Because he never intended to deliver anyone, Penelope," Hunter said in a whining tone. "The night I met Suzane, your brother sent men to kill me. I should be on this list because I know too much information about the location of the Brotherhood. Today the police also know. And that was Saltuk's fear. He knew t

Hunter didn't notice the lie. He still kept for a long time talking about how the Brotherhood worked and what their motto was. Hunter only changed the subject when Suzane approached, because he didn't want to spoil that peace either. And it wouldn't be fair for me to do it.At least three times during the week, I should go to the gym where my physiotherapy sessions would take place. It was a place far from the city center, so I spent good minutes on the wheel until I got there. On the outside, it was just an ordinary gym, and it was necessary to open at least two doors at the end of the room to have access to the medical rooms I attended. My physiotherapist was a blonde and very tall woman, who could carry me with an ease that was almost absurd. I never knew if she had muscles below the white coat, I couldn't even feel it when she took me in her arms, but I thought it was funny how she could lift me up without effort.The activities were, in general, to regain my balance and strength

Colton has always been very safe and very funny. His jokes were not good at all to laugh at, but the shame of others that everyone felt when listening to them was enough for him to feel better in being able to say them. I had a theory that Colton felt his immunity drop extremely fast when he didn't say some nonsense out of time. That, on the one hand, was boring and stupid, but... Considering that adults are reflections of his childhood traumas, maybe he just didn't feel that need to want to be the best, to want to make someone laugh, why as a child he never had someone to do that for him? I didn't know anymore which of my worst theories fit into Colton's past. I was just sure he was weird.After my brother came up, Colton confessed to having to take medicine to help with anxiety. He was a normal person until the moment the Brotherhood emerged in his life. After that, he started to have a kind of panic that he never described to anyone. Suzane just told me that he looked after his sis

"But I blame "I spoke firmly, and I didn't even notice when I took your hand in mine. "I blame it because I know that everything we learn in childhood has a greater weight in our adult life. I know you would still be successful, and beautiful, and protective, but if you had never been through this, you would also know that everything is fine not if the best always. And I think if someone had said that to you in your childhood, you would have understood it better. A pain is not learning. It's a consequence of a lot of wrong actions.”"I think I would never be what I am today if I had never been through this," said Colton, evaluating our fingers together. I tried to pull my hand, but he held it harder. The blue and beautiful eyes found me, and in them there was only that glow of those who feel truly grateful for something. “The pain has changed me, Lope. But she strengthened me. Today it is very difficult for something to affect me the way it did before. I know that my priorities should

“Yes, they also started after I forged a fake marriage. "I tell the truth, laughing at Colton's shocked expression. He seemed to be turning pale with the gossip. The blue eyes shone with fun, so I tried to explain: "Not that either of them has a sexual orientation to be hidden. Suzane is straight, and Hunter is from the world, I think he would fall in love with people like me, I don't know. But the two met long before everything, when she was still young and so was he. My brother seriously assaulted her and my father told her to be killed. Hunter was the one who did the dirty work at that time, since he had gained my father's trust many years before. But he refused to kill Suzane, and was punished for it, but, years later, they coincidentally met at a subway station, right after Suzy was betrayed by Dean. So they started this lie and ended up really married.”"Did your brother and father act so coldly? "Questioned Colton, increasingly pale. "Lope, I never imagined that your family cou

"But I still think you have to sort things out with Mika, first of all "I spoke in a cordial tone, crossing my arms. I was trying to fight my desire to grab Colton and kiss him until someone arrived at that place. "I think you need to talk and understand if you are doing the right thing, after that, you and I could talk.”"What assures me that you are not doing this just so that Mikaela is alone?”"Are you afraid of being the person who will be alone?”"No, I'm afraid of being the person who will still wait for you," he said in a low and hoarse voice. "Because I didn't think I would be so involved with you the moment I set out to help you recover, Lope. I didn't think that things between us could evolve into more than one friendship. And I regret accepting your offer to get closer to Mikaela, because I had no idea that it would involve many other people. I am sorry that I did not have the courage to confess that I would much rather be involved with you than let my life revolve around

“Hunter! "Rebuked Suzane, gesturing with his hands. "It's not cool for you to say that about Colton. He was the one who suffered the most from Jonathan's pressures. And he didn't even know who the hell Jonathan was. And because you like him a little, you should show a little more respect. Confess that you are only angry because he is always aligned and smiling.”"I confess, I never liked him, but now I like him a little," said the Turk."Anyway, I don't think Mikaela and Colton could become a version like yours," I spoke in a cute tone, and they both smiled without showing their teeth. "They put up with each other and were friends, but nothing more than that. But I still think you, Suzane, should be the last person to support me in anything with Colton. If your sister finds out that you don't put much faith in her marriage, you might get upset. Mikaela is pretty crazy. Show your support or she'll freak out.”"Oh, no, the marriage between them wouldn't happen anyway," said Suzane with
