LOGINFlavian's POVWhen I saw Giovanna at the police station, I was already expecting some crazy news. After all, my little friend was crazier than the self-defense teachers - totally nuts! But when Bonfim told me she had served an arrest warrant, I even thought I had walked into the wrong station."Explain this arrest warrant thing to me, Bonfim," I asked, though I wasn't sure I really wanted to know."She found Mara!" Bonfim laughed, and that could only mean Giovanna had done to Mara what she'd done to the teacher."We'd better go to my office," I called out."Hey, BFF, why was the Botox snake arrested?" Giovanna asked me with her eyes fixed on Suzy, and I saw Little Renata's little smile."For a bunch of things, little friend, including performing illegal abortions," I answered and saw Giovanna narrow her eyes at Suzy."Besides being a trash mother, she kills little babies too? I don't know who's worse, the Botox snake or the cow!" Giovanna looked at Suzy indignantly. "Give me five minut
Giovanna's POVMy grandmother was recounting everything that had happened to her earlier, about the little visit she had received. Detective Bonfim and my father listened attentively while Anderson kept glancing at me from the corner of his eye."Go on, you can say it, I know who I take after." I laughed and he shook his head."Actually, I was wondering who your mother takes after," Anderson commented, and my grandmother looked at him."That slowpoke Raina takes after her father, way too calm, like she doesn't have blood in her veins. I'll tell you, when she showed up pregnant by the handsome one over there, I was so surprised I didn't even fight about it." My grandmother shrugged."You didn't fight, but you never missed an opportunity to needle us, did you, Arlene?!" My father reminded her, and she looked at him, laughing."If I hadn't needled you, Rafael, you wouldn't have gotten just one pregnant, you would've gotten both of them, because you went through a phase that only God's me
Rafael's POVWhen I saw Arlene's call on my phone, I thought it was strange. It was unusual for her to call me, especially Raina was back. I answered and she quickly told me what had happened. She wanted to know if Giovanna was okay. I calmed her down and said I would go to her house. I should have insisted that she accept the security guard."Anderson, Gia, we need to go to Arlene's house," I announced as I returned to the living room."Did something happen to my grandma?" Giovanna immediately worried."Fortunately not, but she had an unpleasant visitor. Lennon was there and she sent him packing," I explained quickly. "But let's go, I'll tell you what she said on the way."And while we were on our way to Arlene's house, I told them everything she had said to me. We were almost there when Gia put her hand on Anderson's arm and stared at him."Anderson, you said you would help me with my crazy ideas," she faced her boyfriend."Yes, Gia. Why?" He looked at her."Stop the car now," she as
Flavian's POVI knew Gregorio wouldn't talk willingly and I knew Little Renata would solve this problem in her own special way. I just didn't know if Gregorio was prepared for that squeeze, but then, that was his problem. I would do my part and ask politely where the others were."Where are they, Gregorio? And don't play dumb with me, because they're here!" I asked as I approached, and he gave me a mocking smile."Look for them, Detective!" He shrugged."Congratulations on your courage, but you have no sense!" Little Renata snorted, grabbed Gregorio's balls and squeezed.She squeezed so hard that he started crying and began to kneel, but she didn't let go and kept squeezing, kneeling down with him. I was certain Gregorio was seeing death hovering around him, because that had to hurt!"Tip of the day, tough guy: don't piss me off! Now, you're on your knees, time to sing!" Little Renata said to Gregorio, but she was still gripping his balls, which I was starting to think had already disi
Flavian's POVThe schedule was very special. I was finally going to get my hands on Frederick's accomplices! After making the arrests on Pipote Hill the day before, all I had left was to catch those lackeys and pass my investigation on to the feds so they could continue investigating the human trafficking ring. After that, I would take a long and well-deserved thirty-day vacation with my beautiful wife and kids! Oh, I couldn't wait!"What's with that happy smile, princess?" Little Renata threw herself into the chair in front of me."The smile of someone who's going on vacation soon. Want me to put a little desk here next to me for you, Little Renata? You never leave my office anymore!""Oh, you know why I like it here so much? Because here in your office there's no door, we don't get locked in!""You've been a bit claustrophobic lately, huh?!""After that mess at the prison, I really have been. Getting cornered by those criminals was pretty tense.""Just pretty tense?" I laughed."Yeah
Lennon's POVI was tired of these complications that Gregorio and Frederick kept getting into, and the worst part always fell on me. Then here I was, about to kidnap an old lady with a hooker as my partner in crime! Life wasn't fair!We managed to sneak out of the house hidden in Suzy's trunk. Then she stayed at a mall while we continued with the car to the grandmother's house of that teenager Mara hated."Which house is it, Lennon?" Mara asked beside me.She was acting really strange, way too nice, as if she knew she was a little lamb with her minutes numbered. I was already furious with her, and after the lawyer found out that Frederick had been transferred far away because of that little visit from her cousin, I wanted to kill her right away. The worst part was that we couldn't figure out how she had managed to talk to her cousin, because Gregorio and I had already ransacked her room while she was helping Suzy and we hadn't found any cell phone."It's that one in the middle of the s
