“Can you come over?” Amelia’s voice cracked.

“Please. I need—I can’t—”

“I’m already in my car,” Ariana said. “I’ll be there in twenty minutes. Have you eaten anything?”

“I don’t—no. I don’t know.”

“I’m bringing food. And mezcal.”

“You’re eight months pregnant. You can’t drink mezcal.”

“The mezcal is for you, idiota. I’ll have water and judge you lovingly.” Ariana’s voice was firm but gentle. “Don’t do anything stupid before I get there, okay? No calling him. No breaking anything else. Just sit

    "I—" She choked, crying hard. She bit her lip. "They took my boys. My twin boys. They said if I helped Amelia win, they'd kill them. They're eight. I didn't know what to do. I'm sorry."The warehouse went dead quiet. Just Rebecca's shaky breathing.Miguel froze. He stared at her. "You could've called the cops," he said."They said they had cops—""You could've told someone. Left a note. Warned Amelia. Something." His voice stayed low. "But you didn't. You showed up every day. You objected to dumb stuff. You sat quiet when it counted. You looked her in the eye and lied." He shook his head. "You're not sorry 'cause you had no choice. You're sorry 'cause you got caught.""Please," she begged. "My boys—""We'll find them," Miguel said. He nodded to a guy nearby. "Marco. Find where Damien's Wife is keeping them. Get them out. Tonight."Marco pulled out his phone and stepped back.Rebecca looked up, tears everywhere. Hope flickered in her eyes. "Thank you. Thank you—""Don't," Miguel cut

  • The Return Of The Betrayed Bride    Denied At The Gates

    WENT-WORTH CORRECTIONAL CENTER – VISITOR CENTER – 10:00 AMThe visitor center at Wentworth was cold and gray. Fluorescent lights buzzed overhead. The floors were scuffed and dirty. Rows of plastic chairs sat bolted to the floor. A thick glass window separated visitors from inmates. Phones hung on both sides for conversations.Ariana stood at the check-in desk with baby Aiden on her hip. The baby was awake now, looking around with wide curious eyes. Ariana had dressed him in a little blue outfit. She looked tired but determined. She had not slept well since the confrontation at the penthouse."I'm here to see Amelia Favino," Ariana said to the guard behind the desk.The guard was a large woman with a bored expression. She didn't look up from her computer. "Name?""Ariana Flores."The guard typed slowly. She clicked her mouse a few times. Then she shook her head. "You're not on the visitor list."Ariana blinked. "What? That's impossible. I'm her best friend. She would have put me on

  • The Return Of The Betrayed Bride    When The Truth Finally Breaks

    ABANDONED WAREHOUSE~ NEW YORK CITYRebecca sat completely still in her chair, staring straight ahead with her jaw clenched so tight it looked like it might crack.One of the men stepped out from the shadows and walked over to her. He set a small metal case on the floor beside her chair and opened it without saying a single word. Rebecca glanced down at what was inside, and a sound came out of her mouth that was almost a scream, but not quite.From behind her, Miguel asked the same question again. "Who paid you?" His voice was exactly the same as before—same flat tone, same quiet volume, as if he were casually asking her what she wanted for dinner.Rebecca's voice broke when she tried to answer. "I can't tell you. If I tell you, they will—"Miguel cut her off as he walked around to face her. "They will what?" He knelt down so his eyes were level with hers, and up close, she could see that his eyes were even darker than she'd thought. There was no anger in them, no heat—just a terr

  • The Return Of The Betrayed Bride    Two Snakes In One Nest

    For a moment, the room went completely silent.Ariana slowly turned back and looked at Gabriella. Her eyes burned with pure anger. Baby Aiden was still crying loudly in her arms.A maid rushed out of the kitchen after hearing the loud noise.Ariana gently placed Aiden into the maid’s arms. “Please hold him for me,” she said quietly. “Let me deal with this Spanish spiteful untrained bitch.”The maid nodded nervously and stepped back, rocking the baby.Ariana’s gaze never left Gabriella.“I’ve put up with your lies for years,” Ariana said. “But nobody slaps me and walks away smiling.”Gabriella crossed her arms. “Oh? And what are you going to do about it?”Ariana smiled. It wasn’t a nice smile. It was the kind of smile that warned trouble was coming.“You should’ve kept your hands to yourself.”Before Gabriella could answer, Ariana lunged at her.Gabriella screamed as they crashed to the marble floor. Ariana landed on top and grabbed a fistful of Gabriella’s hair.“Get off me!” Gabrie

    ALEJANDRO’S HOUSE — FRONT DOOR — 2:30 PMAriana stepped out of the car with baby Aiden resting on her hip.Her suitcases were still in the trunk.She hadn’t even gone home.After a fourteen-hour flight from Italy, she had come straight here.For weeks, Amelia had been calling her. Then suddenly, the calls stopped. The messages stopped. Everything stopped.When Ariana finally found someone who knew what had happened, she booked the first flight out of Rome without a second thought.She hadn’t even packed properly.Aiden grabbed a handful of her hair and giggled.Ariana smiled tiredly and kissed his forehead.“We’re going to see Aunt Amelia, little man,” she said softly. “She’s probably going to spoil you the second she sees you.”Aiden babbled happily. “Yeah, I missed her too.”Carrying him in one arm, Ariana walked up the front steps and lifted her hand to knock.Before her knuckles touched the door, it swung open.Ariana stopped.Her heart skipped a beat.She stared at the woman stan

    ABANDONED WAREHOUSE – EAST SIDE – 11:45 PMThe warehouse had no windows.The only light came from a single hanging bulb in the center of the room. It swung slightly from the draft coming under the door. The shadows it made were long and unsteady. The floor was concrete. Cold and stained and unforgiving.Rebecca Stein sat in the middle of it all.She was tied to a metal chair with her wrists bound behind her back and her ankles strapped to the legs. Her designer blazer was torn at the shoulder. One heel had snapped off her shoe. Her hair, always so perfectly styled for court, was hanging loose and damp around her face.She had been grabbed from the courthouse parking garage forty minutes ago.One second she was walking to her car with her briefcase in her hand. The next, a black hood was over her head and she was in the back of a vehicle moving fast through streets she couldn't see.Now she was here.She didn't know where here was.Three men stood around the edges of the room. Big

    Sofia smirked. “Exactly why you have to call. You don’t mention the ships. You act concerned, loyal, sympathetic. You say you heard about the ‘family distress’ and your heart aches for her. You make her see you as the loyal, concerned daughter of a true Spanish family. Win the mother, you’re halfw

She reached into a cooler and pulled out two cans of sparkling water, sliding one across the table.“So,” Ariana said, grinning. “We’re officially fugitives from Spanish high society.
