LEVI DEL CAMPA By the time Zesa was done putting on her clothes, I had already collected Finn’s phone from the table to go give it to him. That guy had the worst timing I could think of. Of all the times he could come in, it had to be now. Just when I was so close to orgasm. Then again, it was our fault. We didn’t lock the door. But who would have thought he’d come back for something as small as a phone? I went outside to see Finn rubbing the back of his neck. He appeared to be as flustered as I was. He darted his eyes to Zesa when she came out.“I swear I did not know you’d be going at it in the living room. I just came for my phone.”“How much did you see?” she asked, eyeing him.I didn’t really think it was that necessary to know, but oh well. It was her body, so I guess she had the right to want to know if her male best friend of many years saw what she looked like down there. It was weird to think of.“I’d rather not go into the details.” He waved the car keys at her.
ZESA RUSSO I took a step back away from Levi and closed my eyes for a moment. I couldn’t comprehend what he was saying. It didn’t seem right. After everything I’d gone through, it just didn’t feel real. I couldn’t imagine Marie killing a person or having a hand in their death in such a manner. It was no secret she was a power greedy woman, but what did she stand to gain from Isiah’s death? I let out a huff of air when the reason crossed my mind. Levi. He was the reason she killed Isiah. She was making sure no one would try to take her son’s place in my life. “Zesa.” One of Levi’s hands grasped my shoulder, the other going under my chin to make me look at him, “I’m sorry.” “Why?” I gave a wide, strained smile that didn’t reach my eyes. “You have no reason to be sorry. Did you hire anyone to run him over, or did you know of her intentions of killing Isiah?” When he shook his head, I continued. “Then you have no reason to be sorry. The person I have an issue with is Marie. Not you.” “

ZESA RUSSO Someone once said revenge was not a dish to serve cold, it’s a knife with rusty edges kept by one with blood on their hands. They said it would always be the work of an inner tantrum. I disagreed. To me, revenge was the liberation of the soul. And my soul needed to be liberated twice. One from Alejandro and the other from Nina. I scanned my closet in just my underwear, searching for the perfect fit. The last time I went to see Nina, I wasn’t my usual self, but now things were different. I was well aware of who I was and what she did to me. How she tried killing me because of a man. I could never forgive her. I stopped in front of an elegant beige colored long sleeve midi dress. This was it. Simple and classy. “Do you have a meeting?” Levi asked, entering the room. He was already dressed for work in a medium gray suit. Since he told me about his mother’s involvement in Isiah’s death, he could hardly look me in the eye. I couldn’t understand why he was sufferin
ZESA RUSSO After little contemplation, I settled for a mid-calf contrast color striped insert blazer dress with long sleeves to keep me warm. Leandra wore a khaki colored tied detail long sleeve pleated dress. We walked up to the huge door that hid the party behind it. Two guys wearing black suits in front of the door opened it, granting us entrance into the garden where the party was being held. Flowers and trees that had fairy lights hanging from them surrounded us. In the center of the garden was a calming fountain as the guests mingled on the covered patio and inner and outer gardens. Servers went around, serving refreshments to those who wanted them.“Ilaria Rossi.” Leandra whispered to me. Her eyes were on a woman a few feet away from us.Ilaria Rossi, a woman of average height with a slim build, tan skinned with a big nose and ears that stuck out from under her textured Pixie with highlights. She wore a perfectly pressed maxi green dress and nude lipstick. Beside her
ZESA RUSSO I’d sent Neviah a text, asking her to send me a list of things a newborn need. Apparently, there were a lot of things a newly born child needed. She mentioned bath towels, a tearless shampoo, onesies, diapers, and to wrap it up, having a baby equaled money. I wondered how she catered for twins. After purchasing every single thing on the list she sent me, one worker helped me bring them to my car. “Thank you.” I told the woman who had helped me carry some bags. She had assisted me when I got confused about what was best for the baby. She later told me she was a mother of three. “You’re welcome.” As she walked away, my phone began ringing. It was an unknown number. Could it be Nina? It was unlikely since I made my intentions clear to her. I doubted she’d want to call and have me disappoint her for the second time. “Zesa Russo speaking.” I said into the receiver, leaning against my car. “This is Sophia.” How interesting. “How can I be of help to you?” “It’s
ZESA RUSSO When they were done setting up Jaylen’s room, I went up to see what they had done. Finn followed me, holding a glass of spiced apple syrup with clementine. I felt my heart swell with joy and satisfaction at the sight before me. It was a whimsical themed room. It had a tree mural wallpaper and a two-toned palette of soft and dreamy tones of pastel blue and white, creating a soft, dreamy, cloudlike backdrop for a room filled with traditional vintage-style furniture and lighting. A floating cloud suspended from the ceiling and on the floor was a light blue tartan plaid rug. It had a classic pattern with muted colors. Beside the white Venetian cast iron crib was a glider chair with a modern twist to the traditional wingback chair style. To the right of the glider chair was an oval mirror and an antique chest of drawers. There was also a shelf with children's books on it. “It looks like a prince’s room.” Finn commented, to which I nodded in agreement. My little pri
ALEJANDRO ORTEGAI sat at the dinner table in Sophia parent’s home with Sophia and her parents, alongside my father, Manuel, as I pondered on why Marie turned herself in, claiming to be the mastermind behind Isiah’s death? How did I miss such a thing? I bit the inside of my cheek to keep myself from sighing, since it would draw attention to me. I just wanted this cursed dinner to be over, so I could have more time to think about what to do to get the woman of my dreams.There was this fire that burned inside of me whenever I saw or thought of Zesa. That woman was perfect, but at such a time she failed to set her priorities straight. I expected more from her, to be honest. There was nothing hard about leaving Levi and coming to me. Absolutely nothing. I’d tried to be the nice guy, gave her some time. It seemed she had her mind made up. She would not come to me. At least not on her own. She needed some boost. She wanted to make me the bad guy.“Alejandro,” Sophia whispered, rubbing my th
