Anabel’s POVI never thought a week could take so long to pass. I was anxious and incredibly happy, but it felt like Saturday would never arrive. When it finally did, I was thrilled. The night before, Rick had been kicked out of the house by the girls, who decided to have a pajama party. From what I understood, this was a tradition among the group I had joined, and each day I discovered more about how loyal and close-knit they were.The girls, who had welcomed me warmly, who had been a safe harbor during critical moments, and who I could call friends, prepared an incredible breakfast and showered me with attention and pampering from the moment they woke me up singing "Dancing Days" with such energy it felt like I was waking up in the middle of a lively party."Girls, attention please, we have a tight schedule," Melissa was already prepared to tackle the day, wedding planner in hand, pen at the ready, and all the determination of a commanding general."No, you're not going to make us ar

Richard’s POVWhile we took several photos and received hugs from family and friends, the small altar was dismantled and gave way to a dance floor. Soon the band's vocalist called us to the floor for our first dance as a married couple. Then at the first chords of the song, I already knew what I would hear, as perfect as everything she did to me."Did you choose the song, beautiful girl?" I asked and she giggled."I even thought about choosing that one from the bodyguard movie," she answered, making me laugh."That song has nothing to do with us," I commented, still laughing at her joke."But it's beautiful!" She smiled confidently."You're beautiful, my love! And this song is perfect." I kissed her face and while we danced I repeated the verses of the song in her ear like a perfect declaration.The party was lively, the food was delicious, and Melissa was receiving another seal of success for an event she organized. She smiled exultantly at the result of everything. Then I took advan

Flavian Moreno’s POVI had already decided to go after Ruby and her girlfriends at the Up-and-Down, because those three knew everything that happened around there and if Irina had gone there, they would definitely know. But I still hadn't found time for that—things at work were pretty hectic and then there was Rick's wedding, which was why I was covering a shift I'd swapped with a colleague. So the plan was to pay the girls a visit when I left the station, before heading home."Detective, guess who just showed up?" Little Renata stopped at my door and I just looked at her. "The ladies of the night," she said, seemed excited."Who?" I narrowed my eyes at her and she laughed."Oh, Detective, I forget you're a family man," Little Renata teased, as always. "Ruby and her friends, Detective, they just arrived.""You're kidding? I was just thinking about going to the Up-and-Down to talk to them," I broke into a big smile. "Come on, Little Renata, let's go say hi to the girls."I went to the h

Irina’s POVMy life was so good, everything was going so right, until that unbearable Anabel decided to rebel and team up with Richard. Damn the day I decided to buy that house. That's when everything started going wrong. Now I'm here, in this trash can, after having prostituted myself, something I never thought I'd do. Oh, how I miss my hot tub and my imported creams! But one day I'll get my revenge, because I won't be locked up forever, and when I get out, Anabel, I'm going to destroy you.That day at the police station, I felt like my life was over. Valerie handed over that video - which I didn't even know existed - and told the detective everything, everything! Every time she let me into the house, the money I paid her for letting me in on the day I killed that woman...Antonia! I wanted everything that was hers. Her life was so perfect! She lived in a mansion, had lots of money, had everything she wanted. My mistake was thinking the money belonged to Lionel, because it never did,

Richard’s POVThe discovery about the truth of Antonia Lancaster's death shook Anabel more than I had expected. For the first two days, she felt so much anger that it was nearly impossible to convince her not to go to the prison to see Irina. Fortunately, Dr. Castle didn't do what she asked, and my father convinced her that it would be best never to see that woman again.Then she spent days feeling a sadness that worried me deeply. I was afraid she might lose her joy. But then she wanted to visit her mother's grave. She brought flowers, sat on the grass, and cried hard beside that headstone, asking forgiveness for having been angry when she thought her mother had killed herself, and said a prayer for her mother to be at peace.When she left that place, she had left her sadness there. She missed her mother and always would, but she stopped dwelling on the bad and sad things and focused only on the good and happy ones. When she smiled again, it was as if an enormous weight had been lifte
