All Chapters of On the Beam: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

- Your wife is right. - My lawyer added.It was hard to come face to face with Olga. The deceit was in her eyes, but I couldn't lose my head. Everything she said to the judge was based on lies or she added a dramatic tone to come off as a victim.- 'After my daughter died that, I'm sure it was this man's fault! - She pointed at me - I was forced away from the twins. And prevented from living with my grandchildren. Because they were rich I was treated like dirt. And I certainly didn't want my grandchildren with a pervert who lived drunk. My daughter suffered from the betrayals of this man and you think he can raise children like that?Wretched....- Your Honor, I object - my lawyer spoke - this lady is accusing my client of murder without evidence. We are here to discuss child custody.- Objection granted - The judge looked at me -- 'Did you ever prevent the maternal grandmother from living with her grandchildren? - the defense lawyer asked me.- 'Yes, Olga has never liked her grandch

The children were not to blame for my wanting to kill their father.As if it wasn't enough to stay by Miguel's side and with his arms around me we had to watch first Fast and Furious 7 chosen by the boys because Miguel and Heitor loved cars and then we watched A Love to Remember chosen by me and Lavinia.- Ew! - Heitor grimaced - You two are crying!- Silly me, didn't you understand a single minute of the movie? - she dried her tears - When I grow up I want to live a romance like that, from books. Or like Dad and Oliviah's.Don't want that, girl!- My love, you'll live," I said, smiling, "You'll be very happy.- Girls! - Heitor grumbled.- How about a snack? - Miguel got up from the sofa - The popcorn is gone!Anyone who came into the dining room would say that we were a perfect family. The margarine commercial family. I let myself be carried away by the twins' happiness and forgot a little about Miguel's anger. I was hours without being ironic and without attacking him with words, I

Kissing Miguel was always great. After him I had kissed other men, but none of them knew how I went crazy the way he did. It was calm, but with urgency and also overwhelming and slow, I loved to feel his mouth on mine and every time it happened something inside me ignited. He was the man who drove me crazy with just a touch, he was the man who knew my weak spot and how to leave me like a volcano about to erupt. All this was Miguel Henrique, the man I loved.The party kept going. And I alternated between drinking wine and chatting with Camila, we were outstanding. Most wives and girlfriends of soccer players only talked about clothes, jewelry and designer handbags and that was a bummer. Of course I loved clothes and handbags, but it wasn't a topic for a dinner party. I wondered if that was one of the prerequisites for being a player's wife. Mila and I were more relaxed and our conversation went beyond futility.- I know, it's going to be an ugly fight..., but I don't care, you and my b

Touch. Warmth. Passion. All of that was between us at that moment. I wanted to feel Miguel, but I was afraid, that fear that always surrounded me every time we were about to give ourselves to each other. But at the same time, it was intense. Having his strong arms holding me tighter to himself and keeping me from leaving made my body feel relieved. When Miguel held me, I felt my world safe and free from any evil. I felt complete.- "You'll regret it..." I said, trying to disentangle myself from him. I wanted to feel him, but I couldn't - I.....- "Let me have you! - He pleaded with his eyes - I....His mouth took mine with urgency. His firm hands roamed my body gently, as if searching for something that was right in front of him. I enjoyed the ride of Miguel's hands with bliss and shivered every time he touched some weak spot.The moon shone even brighter as the sway of the sea dictated the rhythm between us. Miguel's soft tongue danced in my mouth and made its way to my breasts, wher

- 'How about Oly and me and Lavinia and Dad? - I smiled at the boy's choice - or the two of them against me and you, Dad? And whoever wins will have to do the other guy's bidding, spend the afternoon with us playing video games!- And if Oly and I win? - Lavinia said excitedly - You'll spend the afternoon at the mall with us!- I like that! - I must remind you that I'm great at taking penalties... I had a good teacher." I winked at Miguel.- É? - He raised his eyebrow. "And I'm not only a great goalkeeper, but I can also take a penalty kick. And I have a request - I frowned - If you lose, you'll have to have dinner with me tonight too!- "Okay," I smiled and shrugged, "I just wonder if you'll win, right?- "I'll do anything to have it honey!We had really put an end to the fights and quarrels, Miguel and I learned to respect each other. We lived as a real family and I finally felt happy and complete for being part of everything. Raising the twins was what I loved doing the most, the w
