My forehead was pressed against the glass, and I was biting my nails. The scenery outside meant nothing to me. My body had tensed up the moment I got into the car—my palms bore witness as my nails dug into them while I cried. That’s how badly Nikko’s betrayal had wrecked me, and now his cousin Maël was driving me back to Braga.

I didn’t want to go home, so I told him to take me anywhere but my parents’ house.

We arrived in Braga in less than 45 minutes without exchanging a single word. He was tense, but not nervous. All I wanted was to forget, to sleep, to ease this suffocating anguish. And despite my misery, being near Maël put me on edge, as it always did—this time would be no exception.

The silence broke when we pulled into the garage of what looked like a house. I was completely thrown, and the surprise was enough to snap me out of my haze.

"Where are we?"

"One of my father’s properties. Did you know about this place? Carlos bought it a few years ago," he explained as th

  • CROOKED: In love with my cousin's boyfriend   CHAPTER 46

    “I wasn’t going to confess anything—I’d never betray you, and you know that.” “I know, but that’s not what I mean.” I wiped my face with the back of my hands. “Why are you crying? You don’t have to cry.” I opened my purse, checked my phone, and aimlessly scrolled through apps without really seeing them—anything to avoid looking at him. “Delu.” He stepped closer, and I stepped back. “What you heard…” “You get money to do whatever you want.” I looked at him again. “We could’ve met at a hotel, couldn’t we?” He frowned and clenched his jaw. “Is that what you want?” “Maël…” I exhaled to steady my voice. “I don’t know what kind of relationship you have with your father, but I don’t ever want to hear you talk to him like that again—or him to you. You’re not like that, Maël. You’re not a bad kid, not a bad son. Why do you treat each other that way?” His jaw tightened even more. “He and I don’t…” “I get it, I get that you have your differences. At your age, I argued with

    “You asked me to oversee the renovations while I’m in Braga—that’s why the mattress, for when I have to stay here.” Silence. “Where is she?” Silence again. My God, was he pointing at the door? I didn’t even dare look at the wood. “There’s no one here, Dad,” Maël denied again. They were whispering, clearly trying to keep Mr. Peñera—who I assumed was the potential tenant—from overhearing their argument. I swallowed again, this time feeling real pain. Yes, pain—because that’s what fear does: it hurts your throat and stomach, makes you sweat, paralyzes you. Mr. Carlos couldn’t see me here. No, no, no, no! Absolutely not! That would be the end of me. It would mean total failure, shame. It would be a colossal mistake. I was the ex-girlfriend of his nephew, I used to live in his house back in Castelo. He’d seen me with Nikko for years. All it would take was opening that door for him to see a witch-looking slut now sleeping with his son. His nephew’s cousin! What a curse! That fam

    Silence fell. I wanted to understand Fran's advice and I struggled to do so, I confess with some trepidation. A slight fear, the kind that is handled with tact and doubt. Why would a man, knowing more than others, give that advice to someone? He must have had some powerful reason. "The accident wasn't on purpose, really," Maël said, his voice lower than normal. "I'm not crazy, Delu." "Fran is your friend." I still hadn't fully come to terms with it. My voice was a string of confusion. He sighed again and nodded. Then he shook his head before emphasizing his confession. "I didn't like seeing you with him." I looked at him and thought carefully about what I would say next. "Why are you jealous of me with Fran and not with Nikko?" Maël held his breath and clenched his jaw. "What makes you think I'm not jealous of my cousin?" There were no answers. A noise at the front of the house startled us. "Who's coming?" I asked, alarmed. We got up at the same time to look out the window

    I couldn't believe it. I smiled without anything to laugh about, looking anywhere but at him, wondering when he had seen us. Then I remembered... Even so, I had to ask questions. "Was that you on the motorcycle?" I let my voice remain calm. The opposite of how I felt inside. It felt so good to be with him there, enjoying ourselves without thinking about the good or bad things in the world, but that wasn't good. "Answer me." "Yes, what's the matter?" I looked at his face. Pure seriousness and determination. And he continued speaking without a hint of doubt. "I wanted to meet you somewhere other than here." He pointed to the upstairs room where we used to meet. "I thought it would be a good idea to walk, talk, have a drink outside... Do you know what a surprise is, Delu?" He paused and began to nod with a smile like mine from a few moments ago: one of disbelief and certainty; it doesn't bode well. "You know what it is. It's exactly what I felt when I saw you with him, hugging him, lau

    Maël and I agreed to meet every weekend, so five days after my encounter with Fran, we scheduled ours. April was still in full swing, and the play demanded my attention, but I couldn't miss a single Saturday of being there with him. So after the usual welcome, we found ourselves rubbing our legs together, caressing each other, tasting pieces of each other, and discovering that we loved that position, one that I was starting to get used to in just over a month. We lay down with our heads on either side of the mattress and our legs tangled together. Like a finger trap, the more you pull, the more it traps you. "I love being like this." He raised his head and laughed at my comment, shaking his foot around my lower parts. "Like this?" He tried to caress my sensitive parts. I closed my legs. "Be careful what you do, child." He laughed even more, dropping his head and placing his arms under his neck. "Child," he repeated in a whisper. "Do you like the child?" I raised my head, my f
