In Love with my Son's Ex

Chapter 1 Brazil — São Paulo — SP Gabriel Monteiro, CEO of one of the largest medical technology companies in the country, stood in the middle of the living room’s silence, watching the rain strike the immense glass windows. Since the accident that had left him in a wheelchair, his temper—already severe—had grown even worse. He hated the idea of depending on anyone, especially now that his mother, the only person he trusted, was about to travel. Gabriel heard a noise behind him and turned, watching his mother. She began talking excitedly about her trip to Europe. He did not listen. His mind was stuck on the discomfort of being treated as if he would never recover from the accident he had suffered. He felt disturbed when he heard that he would have a nurse to take care of him. “I don’t need any babysitter taking care of me, Mom,” he growled, his voice firm. She sighed, ignoring his outburst of anger with the patience of someone already used to her son’s difficult temperament. “Ga

Chapter 3 Jussara entered the bedroom and, after closing the door behind her, leaned against it, still trying to process what had just happened. Her heart was racing and her hands were trembling as she remembered Gabriel’s intense kiss. A sense of vulnerability caught her by surprise; he had left her shaken, and the image of that moment kept spinning in her mind. She ran her hand over her lips, where his touch still seemed to linger, and sighed, somewhat annoyed with herself. It made no sense. What had he been thinking? And why had she reacted that way, falling so easily for his provocation? "I fell for it like a fool," she thought, feeling incredulous. It was impossible to deny that it had been the best kiss she had ever had. At the same time, however, a nagging doubt began to form. Was he just testing boundaries? Or was it some kind of game to him? Even though she tried to remain professional, Gabriel was managing to shake her defenses. Taking a deep breath, Jussara moved away

Chapter 5 Gabriel pulled his lips away from hers, his fingers sliding gently over her delicate face. “You’re going to be mine.” Jussara felt her entire body burst into flames when she heard his words and, almost without thinking, she murmured: “I will…” To Gabriel, that only confirmed what he had already imagined: Jussara was an escort. If she was a professional, she certainly wouldn’t mind being under his control. Just the idea of having her awakened intense sensations in him, something that surprised him, since days earlier he believed the accident and the amount of medication he was taking would prevent any desire. However, after the medical appointment two days ago, the doses had been reduced, and the cut on his abdomen was completely healed. The biggest obstacle now was still depending on the wheelchair. Although he could already feel some response in his legs, he still couldn’t move them as he wished, an effect of the trauma. But the doctor had assured him that soon he wou

Chapter 7He grabbed her arm and said,"I need you one more time before you leave."She was surprised; today, he was different, almost polite. Then she turned around, and all the desire she had tried to hide over the past few weeks flashed in her eyes."What do you want from me?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly, torn between the hope that he wanted her as something more and her doubt.Gabriel looked at her intensely, his gaze filled with a need she had never seen before."Jussara," he began, his voice low and hesitant, "I need to make love to you before you go."The declaration hit like a bomb, making her heart race. Jussara was left speechless, her mind in turmoil. He was being sincere, and the intensity of desire in his eyes made her waver."Gabriel, you… you can’t just ask me that like this," she replied, her voice shaking, trying to find a balance between what she desired and what she knew was prudent.He stepped closer, his hand on her arm, and she could feel the electric

Chapter 9Jussara pressed the elevator button, trying to keep her composure. As it went down, she thought about how things had spiraled out of control. It seemed that since her breakup with Marcos, everything had gone from bad to worse. She sighed, holding back tears. Falling in love with Gabriel had been a mistake, and now she was the one paying the price. Determined, she concluded that she needed a new job.In the office, Gabriel was still processing what had just happened. His face burned, and he ran a hand through his hair, exasperated. For a moment, he reflected on his impulsive approach. Had he crossed the line? He barely had time to reorganize his thoughts when the secretary came in to confirm the end-of-day schedule. She fell silent when she noticed the red mark on his face, but professionally chose not to comment and confirmed the agenda before leaving.Soon after, Marcos walked in, already asking the secretary for coffee before closing the door. He dropped into the chair in
