THE NEXT MORNING

There was a knock at the door. Soft, a little hesitant.

Camila didn't flinch. She remained a still point in the rumpled bedsheets, her gaze fixed on some unseen spot on the wall.

Jaw clenched, eyes narrowed, as if the wall was the enemy ready to attack.

Then another knock came, a little louder this time.

"Camila." Cole's voice cut in, low and hoarse. "You there?"

Camila glanced briefly at the door before responding flatly.

"Yes."

"Can I come in?"

Camila's expression didn't change. "Yes."

The door opened slowly, and first, Cole peeked through, his gaze landing on Camila.

He didn't speak immediately, just stood there for a long moment, his expression unreadable.

Finally, he stepped fully into the room, closing the door softly behind him as if not wanting to break the fragile silence.

He moved with a quiet awkwardness, like an intruder in a sacred space.

"Can I?" he asked, pointing to the edge of the bed. All the while, he didn't dare look Camila in the eyes.

    A tiny creak, then soft, dragging footsteps came from the hallway. This all started after one of the masked guys whispered into Alejandro's ear. He had nodded, and from there they had been shuffling here and there, acting like they were getting ready for something.Antonio and Cole froze, eyes glued to the door, waiting. It was just a regular, fancy door, but right then, it felt like something was about to explode in their face. Antonio had a bad feeling in his gut as he strained his eyes on the door.It swung open slowly, revealing two more masked figures. They weren't just standing there, though. Between them, they dragged someone in with hands bound behind their back and a black bag pulled over their head."GET YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF ME! YOU'LL REGRET THIS, I SWEAR TO GOD!" a muffled, enraged voice screamed as the figure thrashed violently.Cole's body tensed as the figure stumbled in. He shifted slightly on the couch, and you could practically see him holding his breath.Meanwhile,

    Alberto started sobbing, his face buried in the arm Alejandro still had around him. His body shook uncontrollably as he tried to wiggle, but Alejandro's didn't budge. Not a bit. Cole remained still, hunched over, his hands clasped in his lap. Silent. Eyes down, looking at the floor as though it were a sacred refuge. "What do you want?" Antonio asked, his voice raw, trying to keep the anger out of it. "Money? Obviously, your bank account will be frozen after the incident and all. Just tell me; I'll do anything."Alejandro wrinkled his nose. His expression was still calm, but the twitch in his eyes was impossible to miss. "Are you trying to insult me?"Antonio's heart skipped a beat. "Of course not.""That does sound like you're trying to insult me." "Of course not. I'm just stating the facts. Should I have been indirect? You prefer subtlety?" Antonio insisted, a tiny smile spreading on his face like it was all sunshine and rainbows, but inside, it was anything but.Alejandro scanne

    FEW MINUTES AGOIf anyone had the power to rewind time, Antonio probably wouldn't just trade his entire fortune for it; he'd give his very soul. Just to go back years, to stop others from making the mistakes that would eventually wreck his life, so this sickening reality never even existed.And when he meant "others," he meant Ernesto, his damn father.Now seeing Abuelo lay lifeless in the bed like he wasn't just breathing yesterday, like he wasn't just cracking jokes and throwing sarcastic comments about his unborn child looking like Ernesto, a carbon copy.Abuelo was always so full of life, a booming laugh and sharp wit always ready. Now, he was still. Too still. The room was heavy with a silence that screamed louder than any shout.When Antonio finally got it—the horrifying, undeniable truth that Abuelo was dead—he didn't just shout; he roared. He shook Abuelo's shoulders with enough force to dislocate his own sockets if he weren't careful, as if he could physically jolt life back

    "Come on!" Camila groaned, jabbing Antonio's contact on her phone screen. She tapped the call button, pressed the phone to her ear, her feet tapping on the ground. "Come on, pick up, pick up."Madison was right beside her, leaning on the car as Camila paced back and forth with her phone, calling Antonio for the umpteenth time in the last few minutes—well, forty minutes can't be labeled "few" anymore; it's getting to an hour.Camila stopped pacing, ran a finger through her hair, not roughly but gently enough not to ruin her carefully styled curls, letting out a shaky breath. "He's not picking up, Mads. What if something's wrong?"Her voice was barely a whisper as she lowered the phone, staring at the screen as if Antonio's face might magically appear.Madison pushed off the car, her expression softening. "Don't jump to conclusions, Cam. Maybe it's car problems or his phone's dead." She moved closer, putting a comforting hand on Camila's arm. "Let's give him a few more minutes. If he do

    Four months. Just four months, and Camila's life had totally flipped. In a good way.Camila took a shaky breath. The car smelled like a flower shop had thrown up inside, all white roses and nervous pre-wedding sweat. Yesterday, they'd done the court thing already. Today was the big church wedding deal. Court papers were already enough, but Antonio insisted on making it big.And the dress? A huge white ball gown, 'cause he wanted her to have the "honor" of walking down the aisle. The baby bump was already practically showing, even at four months. Her "wild card" was definitely not subtle.Moving in with Antonio had been a battle he'd won, mostly. He'd sweet-talked her with promises of taking care of her, telling her to just chill and skip work. But nah, she'd dug her heels in and kept going to the office. They'd finally agreed she'd take maternity leave around four or five months. Given how fast this belly was growing, that was coming up quick. Or had even arrived, probably. After the
