Unexpected Encounter Alice’s Past
Samantha saw Adam walking by and called him over.“Can I borrow your office for a few minutes? I wanted to talk to Alice about Marcos.” She really wanted to help the two of them.Adam knew something was going on between them. He also knew the two women had been friends for a long time. He no longer had any reason to feel jealous of Alice, the way he had at the club.“Of course. Make yourself at home. I’m going upstairs to take a shower.” He kissed her before heading up.After he walked away, Samantha ran a finger over her nose. She hadn’t noticed before how strong his cologne was. Since he had already given her permission to use the room, she waited for Alice where she was. When she appeared, she wanted to say goodbye to her friend. She wouldn’t have any more plans that morning that required her shooting skills, so she figured it was better to leave soon to avoid running into Marcos.“I want to talk to you before you leave,” Samantha said, serious.“Can’t it be another time? I’ve got
Unexpected Encounter Opening the Heart
Samantha approached Marcos. He was sitting with his legs drawn up and both hands on his head.“Can I sit with you?”“Sure. Just not sure I’ll be very good company,” he replied.She took off her flip-flops and sat down next to him.“What’s really going on between you two?” she asked.Marcos went on the defensive.“Nothing’s going on. She’s just really irritating.” He tried to brush it off.It was clear that wasn’t all there was to it. Samantha wanted him to talk so she could try to help.“I know Alice can be a little irritating sometimes, but there’s something more going on between you two, isn’t there? You can open up to me. Holding certain kinds of feelings in is never the best solution.”She wanted to help both of her friends. She knew about the rivalry Marcos had always had with “the Raven,” even without knowing it was Alice, and she also knew he had never dated anyone seriously.Marcos lifted his head and looked at Samantha. She inspired trust. He decided to open up.“Everything’s
Unexpected Encounter Love and Violence
Love and ViolenceSamantha wanted to continue the conversation with Alice, but first she decided to talk to Adam. Pedro had already called once more, wanting to know about the job at the clinic, and she decided to resolve that right away before he drove her crazy. She went to the office, knocked on the door, and heard Adam’s voice telling her to come in.“Can I talk to you?” she asked, not knowing if she was interrupting something important.Adam nodded. Caio and Andrew stood up to leave, giving the two of them some privacy. Caio would take the opportunity to talk to his future fiancée about the marriage proposal—after Adam had allowed the union, they hadn’t even had a proper chance to talk.“Do you need something?” Adam motioned for her to sit on his lap.“Actually, yes. Pedro won’t stop calling me, wanting to know if you can get him a job at the clinic. He said he’s going to refuse to be discharged until you hire him.” They both smiled at Pedro’s craziness, and she continued. “At fi
Unexpected Encounter Next Phase
Caio grabbed a black bag that already contained what was needed and left the room. Adam approached Marcos and tapped his shoulder.“I’m sorry, my friend, but it’s checkmate for you.”He gave a smile and also left. Marcos, still a little slow when it came to himself, went after Adam, calling him and questioning:“Adam, wait. What’s this about checkmate?”Everyone had already noticed that he was falling for Alice. The only thing left was for him to admit it to himself. They got what they needed and headed to the cars. Adam and Caio went in the front; Andrew, Marcos, and Alice sat in the back.Marcos made a point of putting Andrew in the middle so he could stay away from her. Alice kept playing the same game of getting closer and then pretending she didn’t care, while he still glanced at her from time to time. At the first opportunity, she would move on to the next phase of her plan.The men Adam was going to meet were part of a Brazilian cartel. He would negotiate the weapons that Olive
Unexpected Encounter The Move
Oliver had already been awake for some time. He remained lying down, staring at the ceiling, thinking about his next plan to get what he wanted. That would be his final card against Adam. He already knew Sabrina was dead. He even thought Adam had spared him the trouble, since he had already been getting bored with her. But he wouldn’t make a move until the right moment arrived.The phone rang. He got up and answered the call he had been waiting for.“So, any news?”“Yes, sir. We’ve already managed to track his entire routine. Now we just have to wait for an opportunity.”“And what about the copy of the key to that apartment? If you haven’t taken care of it yet, get it as soon as possible. That detail is very important for the plan to go perfectly.”He ended the call. He was near the window and turned around, looking at the bed. He studied the woman he had spent the night with. She resembled Samantha both in appearance and body structure.Oliver walked over to the desk. There were seve
Unexpected Encounter Coming Clean
After they finished breakfast, Adam headed to the office with Caio while the others waited in the living room. Sophia preferred not to go along. She imagined what it was about, but she could be wrong. If she jumped the gun, she might end up complicating things for Caio.As soon as they walked in, Adam got straight to the point. He was in a hurry.“So, what do you need to talk to me about?”“I want to talk about Sophia. About the council and all the mess with Simon.”Adam wasn’t understanding where he was going with this.“All the pressure from the council and this misunderstanding happen because Sophia still isn’t married.” He tried to get to the point.“Yes, but I’ve already said I’m not going to force her to get married just so I don’t have to deal with the council members.”“I know, Adam. But as long as she isn’t married, the council will always try to pressure you into giving in. They’re going to keep trying to find a husband for her, always looking out for the organization’s inte
Unexpected Encounter Wounded Man
Samantha’s pulse hammered. Floor it and he might shoot. Stay still, and he might kill her anyway. Damned if she did, damned if she didn’t.“Open the door!” the man barked, voice raw and ragged.Without thinking, she hit the unlock. He collapsed into the passenger seat, blood slick on his hands, and
Unexpected Encounter The Encounter
“What do you want, Douglas?” Samantha snapped, yanking her arm free.She was at her limit. The blow-up in the kitchen had drained her patience, and she had zero interest in dealing with him, especially not now.“We don’t talk anymore, Samantha. I just wanted to check if you’re okay. You look amazin
Unexpected Encounter Argument
Pedro, a nurse at a private clinic, was the one who’d introduced Samantha to Douglas, her ex. Douglas, a doctor at the same place, became her ex the day she learned (through Pedro) that he’d cheated with another nurse on staff.Right then, all Samantha wanted was to go home. She loved Pedro, but so
Unexpected Encounter Betrayal
Adam just smiled and started caressing her. Right as he leaned in to kiss her, he caught a glint in the glass of a cabinet across the room. He froze and yelled:“Get down!”He shoved Sabrina aside and drew his gun, but the shots were already cracking through the air. Bullets tore into both of them.
