Marcos floored the gas and weaved through traffic on the avenue with pinpoint precision. Samantha had her seatbelt on tight and clung to whatever she could to brace herself, trying not to get thrown around by his sharp maneuvers.

At one point during the escape, the rear windshield shattered. They realized they were being shot at.

“Get down, Samantha!” Marcos yelled, pressing a hand to her head and forcing her low.

Andrew, in the back, returned fire. Marcos swerved past a few more cars and glanc

  • Unexpected Encounter   Lesson

    Samantha followed the two of them, curious to see up close what Alice was scheming. They headed to the property’s shooting range. There were two: one outdoor and one indoor. As expected, they chose the indoor one.The competitors started getting ready. Alice handed Samantha a pair of ear protectors and stepped into her lane. The rule was simple: whoever hit the center of the target the most times would win. Samantha had no doubt who would come out on top.Both loaded their magazines and began firing. After emptying their rounds, they pulled the targets back in. Just as Samantha had predicted, Alice won.“Pure luck,” Marcos grumbled. He hated losing—especially to her.“Alright, that really wasn’t fair to you. I’ll buy dinner,” Alice replied with a smile.That had been Alice’s plan from the start. She knew she would win, but she wanted to have dinner with him. If she invited him directly, she was sure Marcos would turn her down. Since he was extremely competitive, she came up with the b

  • Unexpected Encounter   Falling Like a Duckling

    They went upstairs to Adam’s bedroom. Samantha filled the bathtub while he started taking off his clothes. When she came back and saw the condition of his body, she almost broke down in tears again.“Are you in pain?” she asked, her voice heavy with concern.“I’m fine,” he replied with that stubborn tone he always used.Samantha knew Adam would never admit to any weakness. He hadn’t taken any painkillers, and there was no way all those cuts weren’t hurting. Once the tub was full, he got in. The low groan that escaped his lips confirmed what she already suspected—the pain was real.Carefully, she helped him wash the cuts, running her fingers gently over the wounded skin. Even though she knew the doctor would be there soon to examine him, she wanted to take care of him as best she could.After soaking in the warm water for a while, Adam finally got out. He put on just a robe since Carlos wouldn’t be long. As he sat down on the bed, there was a knock at the door. It was Caio, letting the

  • Unexpected Encounter   Father

    Oliver had managed to escape and headed straight back to his house. He arrived furious, smashing everything he saw in his office. Even with his injured leg, he was fully focused on venting his rage.Sabrina stood nearby, watching everything but not daring to say a word. She knew that if she spoke, his anger might turn on her. After knocking over as many things as possible, he finally turned to her.“What are you waiting for? Call the damn doctor. Can’t you see I’ve been shot?”Sabrina didn’t answer. She quickly left the office to do what he had ordered. She called the doctor, who said he was on his way immediately. He already knew Oliver well and understood the man had zero patience.“The doctor is already coming. Do you need me to do anything else?” she asked, trying to be helpful since his rage was obvious.“You can’t do anything useful. Could you deliver Adam’s head to me, by any chance? Of course not. I think ever since I got you on my side, I’ve only had bad luck.”At that moment

  • Unexpected Encounter   Power Plant

    When they got close to the power plant, Alice moved ahead once again. She positioned herself in the tall grass and confirmed the presence of armed men on site, concluding they were definitely Oliver’s.The rest of the team spread out around the perimeter. As they observed, they reported back on how many men were visible and which side would be the easiest way into the power plant.Meanwhile, inside, Adam was still tied up in the same position. One of Oliver’s men threw water on him to wake him up. He had lost consciousness after the beating he’d taken and was jolted awake like that.“Wake up, sleeping beauty. I’m not done with you yet,” the man said, approaching Adam and running the back of a knife across his face.“Do you think Samantha’s going to cry a lot over your death? But I’ll make you a promise right here and now: after you’re gone, I’ll console her real good. I guarantee she won’t even stay in mourning for a week,” he smiled, gripping Adam’s chin.“You’re not getting anywhere

  • Unexpected Encounter   Tracker

    Samantha couldn’t sit still. She paced back and forth across the room while Caio checked the final piece of information they needed before heading out to rescue Adam. Alice’s arm wound had already been treated, and even Marcos had helped with it—as a way of thanking her for saving him earlier. Now they were all checking their weapons, getting ready to go after Adam.In the heavy silence and visible tension on everyone’s faces, Samantha couldn’t take it anymore and started asking questions.“How exactly did you guys walk into a trap?”“We still don’t know how he found out about the plan. Someone might have passed the information on to him,” Marcos answered.“But do you have any idea who it could be? It would have to be someone close, right?”“That’s the problem, Samantha. Everyone who knew the details of the plan—besides Adam—is in this room,” Andrew said, gesturing toward the rest of the team. “And I know every one of them is trustworthy. We have no idea how he found out.”After Andre

  • Unexpected Encounter   News

    The injured members of Adam’s team were sent to the clinic, while the others headed back to the mansion to start making arrangements for the rescue. They would have to check every possible one of Oliver’s hideouts, and they needed to do it in record time.Back at the clinic, after Samantha had helped Pedro with his meal and a few other things, she was starting to find Andrew’s long absence strange.“I’m going to the cafeteria to grab a coffee. Want anything?” she asked, getting up from the bed.“A beer, please,” he said, giving her a pitiful puppy-dog look.“As if I’d bring you one. You’re on a bunch of medications—do you really think I’m going to bring you alcohol?” She turned and walked out, leaving him with a grumpy pout on his face.On her way back from the cafeteria, Samantha noticed that the security guard accompanying her looked nervous, standing close to the door of the room. Before she could question him, she saw unusual activity around the clinic. Instead of asking the guard

  • Unexpected Encounter   Pool

    The four of them stood there, watching the two in the pool. They were chatting and smiling, splashing water at each other. With the constant rush of organization business and company affairs, Adam didn’t get much time to spend with his sister—at least not like this, just having fun. And that made h

  • Unexpected Encounter    Cupid’s Plan

    Samantha was finishing packing her suitcase when she heard a knock at the door. A chill ran through her stomach, imagining it might be Adam.“Come in,” she said, mentally bracing herself.When the door opened, she felt relieved to see it was Sophia walking in.“I heard about the trip to Mexico. Alr

  • Unexpected Encounter    Travel Plans

    Samantha understood that this was genuine care from him. She took a deep breath, holding his dark brown gaze while his warm hand still rested on her face.“Okay… I get that you did it for my own good,” she murmured, lowering her eyes for a moment as if the words were hard to say. “I’m just not used

  • Unexpected Encounter   Office

    Samantha slipped into something light for heading downstairs: shorts that ended mid-thigh, snug enough to hug her curves, and a thin tank top that accentuated her breasts, leaving her cleavage naturally exposed without trying too hard. The fabric clung a little to her still-damp skin from the showe
