Aaron

I woke with a surprisingly good sense of relaxation. Opening my eyes, I saw Rebecca sleeping soundly in my arms. Her breathing was calm, serene. Not wanting to wake her, I stayed still for a few minutes, simply admiring her beauty. She felt like my girl—that’s how I thought of her. Mine. Only mine.

But my rational side quickly scolded me. What am I still doing here? I had spent the night at Rebecca’s apartment, something entirely against my better judgment. I had one goal for being there, and I fulfilled that purpose with great effort. Too much effort, a betraying voice in my head reminded me.

  • In the Name of Ambition   A Possessive Man?

    RebeccaThat day’s class was wonderful. I always felt rejuvenated whenever we worked on the practical part, but this particular one had been different. Even with the tension from the previous day still lingering in my mind, something inside me felt more at peace. Maybe it was the reflection of the night Aaron and I shared. After everything he had been through, seeing him leave for work with a calmer demeanor was a relief.I was leaving the classroom when someone started walking beside me."Rebecca, do you have plans after class?" asked Lilian, one of my classmates.It was surprising how much she had been getting closer to me in the past few weeks. Always shy, but extremely kind, she seemed to have found some comfort in our conversations. The invitation for tea

  • In the Name of Ambition    Desire for Revenge

    PaollaWalking through the halls of Baumann, I kept my head held high and my posture perfect, as I always did. But inside, my fury was boiling. Aaron, that ungrateful bastard, treated me like I was nothing.As I turned a corner, I was met with the imposing figure of Leonel walking toward me. He gave me that analytical look I loathed so much, but then his expression softened as he approached.“Paolla, how are you?” he asked, his voice laced with genuine concern that almost made me roll my eyes.Poor Leonel. Always so confident that he can control everyone and everything.I seized the opportunity like the seasoned actress I was. I embraced him, resting my face on his shoulder, pretending to be on the v

  • In the Name of Ambition    A Spark of Doubt

    AaronThe moment I left the clinic, anger still surging through me, I grabbed my phone and called Rebecca. I needed to see her—as if she could anchor me, keep me from spinning out. She picked up after several rings, her voice sweet and curious. “Aaron? Is everything okay?” “Yes… I mean, no.” I ran a hand over my face, trying to organize my thoughts. “Can you meet me outside your school?” There was

  • In the Name of Ambition    A Major Traitor

    AaronThe impact of the guard’s words left me completely stunned. I stood frozen for a few seconds, trying to process a revelation that felt too surreal to be true. Eric. Paolla’s lover was Eric.My anger surged like an uncontrollable wave. I stood up abruptly, my chair scraping the floor with a harsh sound.“Is that really what I just heard?” I asked, my voice louder than usual. “Eric? My best friend?”The guard, Luiz, lowered his gaze, clearly uncomfortable with my outburst. But it was Ettore who spoke, his voice steady and controlled.“That’s right, Aaron. That’s what he revealed, and the evidence I collected confirms it.”I r

  • In the Name of Ambition   Shocking Betrayal

    AaronThe moment I walked into the office on Monday, I barely set my briefcase down before grabbing my phone to call Ettore. "Ettore, I need to know what you have for me. Today." My voice was firm, but not aggressive. On the other end, he remained calm, as always. "Aaron, trust me. When the time is right, I’ll come to you." I closed my eyes for a moment, trying to hold back my impatience.

  • In the Name of Ambition   Walls Raised, Strategy Thwarted

    PietraEven though I had agreed to take things one step at a time with Anton, doubt was still eating away at me almost a week after our appointment with the obstetrician. I couldn’t shake the feeling that, somehow, all of Anton’s efforts to win me over had been driven by his grandfather’s demand for a great-grandchild.On Sunday, when the doorbell rang late in the afternoon, my heart skipped a beat. It was like I already knew it was Anton before even hearing his voice.
