Reina approached Xavier's dark ebony door, its smooth surface gleaming ominously in the dim hallway light. With a gentle knock, she hesitated, anxiety swirling within her, before finally turning the knob. However, as she pushed the door open, a jolt of surprise coursed through her when she found herself face to face with Alfonso, his posture tense and eyes wild. Caught off guard, Reina forced a smile, trying to mask her uneasiness.

“I was coming to check if
,” she began, but Alfonso interrupted her, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

“...if he was dead?” He finished, a manic grin stretching across his face, although it barely concealed the anger that simmered just beneath the surface. Reina’s face contorted into a frown as she absorbed his words.

“Excuse me?” She retorted, indignation flaring within her.

“Why else would you be here if not to confirm that you successfully killed him?” Alfonso shot back, his expression a mixture of mischievous delight and suppressed rage.

    ~~~ Colombia. It was a few minutes past midnight when Victor woke up to the sound of his door creaking open. Heart pounding, he swiftly reached beneath his pillow, fingers wrapping around the cold, hard grip of his gun. With a burst of adrenaline, he rolled off the bed, flicking the switch, flooding the room with light, cutting through the shadows as it illuminated the figure standing in the doorway. He froze as his grip around the gun faltered as his breath caught in his throat, his eyes widening in disbelief at the unexpected sight before him. “Miss Bianca, what are you doing in my room naked?” Victor asked in a hoarse voice. Bianca smiled sultry and began approaching Victor, pulling off the flimsy robe she was wearing. “What is wrong, Victor? Don't tell me you don't want this as much as I do. I've noticed the way your eyes linger on me these past few days, filled with desire, each glance a silent confession of your feelings. I know you want us to start off where we ended last ti

    The moment Lucas entered his office and Victor saw him, his heart skipped a beat at his friend's appearance, twisting his insides with the weight of his betrayal.“Man, when did you arrive?” Victor asked, forcing a casual tone that didn't quite mask the turmoil brewing beneath the surface. His mind raced, grappling with the remorse that clawed at him for betraying the very man who trusted him.“An hour ago,” Lucas replied, settling into his chair. His mind racing to a memory he recalled on his way back, a memory from his childhood he had forgotten, a memory of him and his mom, together with his dad, visiting an amusement park he had seen in Italy, when he went looking for Reina. Lucas closed his eyes as a memory he had locked away in his mind for years began to play in his mind. ~ Flashback, 26 years ago ~“Mummy, why are you hiding me in here? It’s so dark, and I’m scared,” 5-year-old Lucas whimpered, his small voice trembling in the dim light as he watched his mother’s heart-wrench

    The weight of Enzo's choices bore down on him like a crushing tide. He had thought he could prevent the inevitable when he and his family moved to Mexico. He believed, in his naive hopefulness, that a fresh start in Mexico would shield them from the dark shadows of his past. They had moved from one house to another over the course of two years, each time feeling the suffocating grip of fear tighten around them whenever they caught the slightest hint of someone watching, lurking. Yet despite their efforts, Don Emilio had always managed to track them down, proving that some devils never truly rest.But one week ago, he went back to his other family back in Italy, only to uncover the shocking truth that Don Emilio had been training his 4 years innocent young son, wielding him as a weapon against his own blood. As Enzo stood there, heart racing as his little son held a gun pointed at him, he never expected that the moment would come when his boy would pull a trigger.But in a twist of f

    After helping Alexandre with his evening bath, Reina settled into the plush sofa as she lifted Alexandre onto her lap, his small frame nestling comfortably against her. With a warm smile, she reached for the book that lay on the table. She opened it; the familiar smell of paper and ink wafted up, and she began to read the story, her voice weaving through the words like a soothing lullaby in the cozy glow of the room. “Once upon a time, there lived a pig mummy and her three little pigs. One day, when the little pigs were hungry, their Mummy pig went into the kitchen to prepare their meal, but she found there was no food; she checked her wallet, and all her money was gone too.” “Oh, no
” Alexandre said, and Reina smiled and continued. “Not knowing what to do, Mummy Pig told the three little pigs they were old enough, so she sent them to go and begin their life. But told the three little pigs to be careful of the big bad wolf in the forest." At Reina's words, Alexandre snuggled into hi

    “No, I can't lose him! It would kill me,” Reina exclaimed, her heart racing as she jumped to her feet. Driven by a surge of determination, she dashed into her closet, her gaze landing on a delicate black lingerie set that caught her eye. With practiced haste, she slipped into the silky fabric, the soft material clinging to her skin. Grabbing a luxurious black satin robe, she wrapped it around herself, and after applying a light makeup to enhance her features, she took a deep breath and headed towards Xavier’s bedroom. As soon as she stepped into Xavier's dimly lit bedroom and the sound of water running in the shower caught her attention, then a naughty thought came to her mind. She felt a flutter of excitement mixed with dread as she took off her robe, standing confidently in just her lingerie, the fabric embracing her curves. With each step toward the bathroom, her heart pounded louder in her chest as anticipation built within her. But then, as she drew nearer, her heart dropped as

    ~~ One week later ~~ Lucas, who was turning and tossing on his enormous king-size bed, sat up and got off the bed. He walked into his closet, slipped on a shirt and made his way out of the bedroom. He walked down the dim corridor and stopped in front of a door, which he gently knocked on and said, “Mi amor,” his fingers wrapping around the knob as he turned it, pushing the door open. Three days ago, he had returned from work, only to find out Bianca had moved out of their room. He went to her, insisting she return to their room, and they got into an intense argument. Since then he hadn't spoken to her; he gave her the cold shoulder even at dinner. He had been patiently waiting, but she hadn't tried to start a conversation with him either. Three days ago: On entering the guest room and finding Bianca seated on a sofa browsing through her phone, Lucas demanded, "What's the meaning of you moving out?" He burst out, anger lacing his tone, the words sharper than he intended. However

    ~~A week ago~~ Xavier's gaze lingered on Reina as she walked out of the door. With a heavy sigh, he reluctantly placed the telephone back on the receiver, his heart heavy with an unspoken burden. He rose from his seat, but a groan escaped his lips as pain shot through him. He reached for the phone once more and dialed Dr. Emiliano, requesting his assistance. A few moments later, a sharp knock echoed through the quiet room, followed by the distinct sound of the door creaking open. Dr. Emiliano stepped inside, his posture slightly hunched as he entered the dimly lit space. “You reek of sex,” Xavier pointed out bluntly, eyeing Emiliano critically. Emiliano, caught off guard, scratched the back of his head as he halted a few feet in front of Xavier, who was seated on the sofa, dressed in a fitted black shirt and black sweatpants that showcased his muscular frame. “I apologize, boss,” Dr. Emiliano responded, his voice tinged with embarrassment as he averted his gaze to the floor. “I

    “Alfonso! You will stop right now; it's an order, and you fucking know the punishment for defying my orders!!” Xavier yelled after Alfonso. Alfonso stopped and punched the wall angrily, his knuckles turning red, as tears fell out of his bloodshot eyes. “She's pregnant; she's fucking pregnant for another man. For that bastard!” Alfonso spat furiously. “Who was it?” Xavier asked calmly on reaching Alfonso. “Lucas Black.” “What?! When?” Xavier asked, his brows furrowed in confusion. “The same night you went to the madam hotel suite to reclaim her,” Alfonso answered, “What? How on earth did they even meet?” Xavier said, passing a hand through his hair, and added, “What do you plan to do now? I don't want her having that bastard's child!” “I love her man, you know since when. But it's time I let her go.” Xavier squeezed Alfonso on the shoulder and said, “Do what you think is right; you have my support; just don't hurt her. I will kill you if you do.” Alfonso smirked and repli

    One week later
Reina, so far, was truly enjoying her honeymoon, having Xavier all to herself. There was no work and no family—just the two of them. And Xavier, he had been the perfect gentleman; he carried the bags whenever they went shopping, he personally fetched her dishes from the counter all the times they dined out, and even gave her massages, even after she had visited the spa. And their lovemaking sessions were on another level—wild, passionate, and intense.When Reina woke up today, Xavier told her that he wanted to take her on an adventure. They ended up flying to a secluded island, which Reina later discovered Xavier had purchased just for her.On the island, at shore, the two made love, naked in the white sand for hours, going for a swim after each passionate and wild round.At times, Reina felt so weak in her legs she couldn't move, so Xavier would carry her. He would carry her deep into the ocean, where the waves danced playfully around them. They swam together with

    The doors opened, and everyone went quiet as their eyes filled with admiration fixated on the man of the moment, dressed in an all-black three-piece suit as he stepped inside.His tall and muscular frame dominated the space, making him exude a powerful and dangerous aura as he walked down the aisle.

He was fucking hard; it hurts.But he was also aware of the beast he was last night.‘Reina deserves a break.’Xavier at the thought made to get off Reina, but she wrapped her hands around his neck, seizing him as she exclaimed shyly.“I didn't tell you to stop; I only told you I'm sore!”Xavier's lips curled into a cocky smirk as he fixed his dark eyes filled with lust and desire on Reina's face so intensely; she felt uneasy.“What?

    "Do I know you?" Natalie asked, looking at Catalina's face with a confused expression, and Catalina frowned."What? Natalie, I'm your mother. Those people have killed your brother; we have to make them pay!" Catalina said angrily, a malicious expression on her face, and Natalie shook her head in disbelief."You will never change, right? Brother is dead because of you! You never taught him right from wrong. Since you were always jealous of your older sister, you raised brother with that jealousy! You corrupted his mind! And he grew up with that envy in his heart. You killed brother! You're a murderer! Get out of my sight; I don't want to see you ever again! I don't know you!" Natalie cried."Natalie, don't forget I'm the only family you have left! Those people will never accept you." Catalina said arrogantly with a sneer."If they don't accept her, I will."

    Carlotta blinked, her head spinning as she tried to make out their current situation. That is when she realized she and Natalie were squeezed together. Nalatie's head hung low as blood dripped down her face, falling onto her face. Carlotta panicked when she realized she was at a disadvantage. She was below Natalie, and her side of the door was pressed to the ground. But she tried to salvage the predicament. Just then the car moved, and she heard Emilio's urgent voice. Was she delirious, or had her knight in shining armor really arrived? “Emilio
? Is
 Is that you?” Carlotta inquired, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. “What, Carlotta? How are you in this car?” Emilio asked, hearing Carlotta's teary voice, but mentally smacked himself and said hurriedly, “Don't worry, la mia regina, we'll get you out of there soon.” Emilio knew they had just a little time before the car exploded. Carlotta was the one who healed his heart after his wife died; he loved her so much and couldn'

    Natalie shifted uneasily in her seat as she planned her next move; just then a thought came to her mind when she saw the pharmacy ahead.“Stop the car over there,” she instructed.“Madam, are you feeling unwell? We can send you to the hospital.” The bodyguard sitting in the passenger's seat, Vincenzo said politely.“I'm fine.
