The night was lively, with loud music and voices blending into the relaxed atmosphere of the party. I was walking among the people, looking for Lídia, when suddenly I saw her in a way that left me stunned. There she was, in Sebastian’s arms, and they were kissing passionately. I was left speechless, but before I could process what I was feeling, I noticed someone approaching from behind.

—Well, well... a little kitten... Sebastian always had good taste. He spoke in a mocking tone, looking at th

    I slowly open my eyes and look around. I'm in a dark place, sitting on a chair, my arms tied up. I tense my muscles, trying to free myself, but it's useless. The silent environment only intensifies my fear.Suddenly, the lights come on. A man with brown hair, dark eyes, and a cold expression approaches, holding a switchblade.—So, Sleeping Beauty has woken up. Forgive us for not having a more comfortable place for you.He approaches, lightly running the switchblade along my arm. His fingers grip my chin, forcing my face up, his dark gaze fixed on me.—You have the same eyes as your mother.—I... I don’t understand.He looks at me with a cruel smile.—Let me refresh your memory. One day, we raided your house because of a debt your father and brother owed. Your mother... well, she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. She got in the way, and... we did what we had to do. The shot that hit her went through her body and hit your little brother.My body trembles with rage and pain at hi

    It was a day filled with emotions and expectations. After three months of pregnancy, I felt the happiness of finally building a family with Bryan. We were excited to visit Benjamin, his father. Since we got married, I hadn’t had the opportunity to get to know him more deeply, and Bryan, always protective, thought it best to wait until the pregnancy progressed a bit more.I put on a fitted dress that accentuated my three-month baby bump and slipped into low-heeled sandals. As I finished getting ready, Bryan entered the room and hugged me from behind, caressing my belly with a tender smile.—So, are we ready to go? he asked softly.—Yes, let’s go. I replied, smiling, and he took my hand, guiding me to the car.Like a true gentleman, he opened the door for me, and soon we were on our way to Benjamin’s house. When we arrived, Benjamin was waiting for us outside, with a reserved but welcoming demeanor.—How are you, Rebeca? he asked, shaking my hand.—A bit tired because of the pregnancy,

    The wedding reception was in full swing. Friends and family came to congratulate us, while I exchanged hugs and grateful smiles. At one point, I see Lidia coming toward me, and before I can say anything, she hugs me tightly.—Friend, I’m so happy for you! And this baby on the way... She speaks with a mix of emotion and joy.Soon after, Dylan approaches and hugs me with a calm smile. He leans in, speaking softly.—I’m so happy for you and for this little angel on the way.He gives me a kiss on the cheek and goes to greet Bryan. Shortly after, I see Igor approaching alone, and he gives me a friendly smile.—It was a beautiful ceremony, Beck. I wish you all the happiness... and to your baby too.He touches my belly gently and pulls me into a hug.—Thank you for coming, Igor. And Jade? Couldn’t she make it?—She had to work today, but she sent lots of good wishes for you.At that moment, my father appears beside us, looking at Igor with a cordial expression.—May I?Igor waves goodbye and

    I was exhausted. The pregnancy hormones were making me sensitive, and the fatigue made me want to stay in bed all day. My mother, always attentive, insisted that I rest during the last few days while she and Lidia finished the wedding preparations. But now, finally, the big day had arrived, and a mix of emotions overwhelmed me.I put on the dress I had dreamed of and looked at myself in the mirror, trying to absorb every detail of this moment. My eyes filled with tears; I had never imagined that a day like this would be so intense.My father entered the room with a proud smile.—You look beautiful, daughter.I ran to hug him. He looked around, observing every corner of my room, as if he wanted to keep a memory.—And now this room will be empty...—Dad, I promise I’ll visit. I won’t live far away.He laughed, but with a sad tone.—Bryan managed to take you away from me.—Dad, I grew up. No one is taking me away from you. I love you.He wiped away a stubborn tear that fell.—Are you rea

    In the late afternoon, the sun was already setting, painting the sky with shades of pink and gold while the guests said their goodbyes with hugs and laughter, satisfied with the celebration that had been a true success. Beck felt happy and tired after the long night, enjoying the silence that began to fill the house as everyone left.Her mother called her softly, "Beck, your father wants to talk to you both in the office."Beck exchanged a quick glance with Bryan, and he nodded, indicating they were ready for any conversation. As they entered the office, they found Beck’s father sitting with a serious expression."Have a seat."Beck and Bryan sat down in front of him, while Bryan kept a steady gaze on her father."So, young man... you caught all of us by surprise.""And I have that effect on people."Bryan replied with a slight hint of mockery, but Beck gave him a discreet nudge to control his tone."If it were up to me, I would never accept this marriage, but... I love my daughter, a

    Beck arrived at the hospital feeling exhausted, even though her day had been relatively calm. In her office, she adjusted some papers, trying to stay focused, until she heard a knock on the door. It was Lidia, who entered with a wide smile and sat down in front of her.—Lidia, I wanted to invite you to my birthday celebration at my house.Lidia let out an excited squeal.—I’m finally going to see your house! I can’t wait! Is Dylan coming?—Of course! My dad loves him, and he’ll definitely invite him.—And Igor, are you going to invite him?—I am. You’re my friends, I want all of you there to celebrate with me.—If you can invite him for me, I’d appreciate it. I’m a bit tired and want to go straight home.—Don’t worry, relax! I’ll let him know.Lidia said goodbye, and Beck took advantage of the quiet to call Bryan.—Hi... I missed you. I called to see if you’re coming to my birthday party.—Of course, I’ll be there, baby.—Good. I just wanted to let you know that you don’t need to pick

    The afternoon was warm, and Beck and Bryan were still sitting on the grass. Bryan, always with an introspective expression, seemed distant, lost in thoughts that Beck couldn't quite grasp. She watched him out of the corner of her eye, but the silence between them was comfortable, with no need for w

    —I’ll be honest with you, Igor. I’m with Bryan, and I don’t want to play with your feelings. I love you, but as a friend.
