Celina stared at Thor, stunned by his actions, trying to process what had just happened. The silence between them was thick, dense, almost suffocating. Thor was still looking at her with an unreadable expression, his jaw clenched, and his eyes blazing with barely contained jealousy.“Thor… have you lost your mind?” she asked, still trying to absorb the shock.“Who is that guy?” he repeated, his voice deeper, controlled, but clearly irritated.Celina took a deep breath, trying to maintain her composure, but her chest was already rising and falling under the pressure of the moment.“Gabriel,” she said slowly. “I met him at the restaurant where I have lunch almost every day. We ran into each other a few times, started talking… and we went out once.”Thor took a step forward, eyes locked on hers.“You went out?”“Yes, we went out. And you know why?” She lifted her chin, the pain stuck in her throat turning into strength. “Because he was kind to me. Because he listened. Because he treated

Celina was crying, her trembling hands resting on her belly.“I’m so tired, Tati. So tired. I just wanted peace, you know?”Tatiana tried to keep her voice calm and comforting.“You have two options, Cê… stay with him, with patience, or move on alone. Like you wanted in the beginning. There’s no right or wrong. There’s only what you need now. And what your babies need.”Celina sniffled.“It’s just that… I like him, Tati. You, more than anyone, know how hard I fought against this feeling. But everything’s so confusing.”“I know, girl. I get it. Roberto and I had a rough start too. Really rough. You remember… and look at us now. We’re good. Happy. We’ve been trying to get pregnant for months, and even though it hasn’t happened yet, we’re solid. There’s love. There’s respect. If you believe it’s worth trying with Thor… then try. But if it’s just going to bring you pain, insecurity… choose yourself. Protect yourself.”Celina nodded, even though Tatiana couldn’t see her.Downstairs in the

The night was silent, wrapped only in the subtle sound of the air conditioner and Thor’s steady breathing. Celina, nestled in his arms, felt the warmth of his body envelop her like a blanket. They were sleeping spooned together, and she felt protected there, perfectly tucked into his arms. But something unexpected began to bother her. An uncontrollable, persistent craving suddenly made her eyes open wide.“I need something sweet.”The thought came like an urgent whisper.Carefully, she moved Thor’s hands from around her waist, shifting delicately not to wake him. He mumbled softly but didn’t wake up. Celina got up, slipped on her slippers, and picked up her phone from the nightstand: 3:00 a.m.She walked to the small kitchen in the suite. Opened the cabinets one by one, but nothing looked tempting. Then she went to the fridge, and when she opened the door, her eyes lit up: two containers with slices of red velvet cake, perfectly wrapped. She smiled like a child who had just found trea

She opened her eyes slowly, feeling her body heavy, her eyes a bit swollen. The first thing she saw was the empty space on the bed. Then, she heard the sound of running water in the bathroom.By instinct, she thought of getting up, going to him, and joining him in the shower. Feeling the hot water on their skin, their bodies coming together again. But the memory of the night... the pain, the vulnerability she had exposed without meaning to... it was still with her. She couldn’t pretend nothing had happened. She couldn’t just ignore what she felt. The fear was still there.So she gave up.She stayed lying down for a few more minutes, until the sound of water stopped.Thor came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel, his hair still dripping. When he saw her awake, he paused at the door. Their eyes met.Celina pulled the sheet up to her chest, a little shy, but tried to smile."Good morning...""Good morning," he replied, his tone calm, though his gaze was full of thoughts she couldn’t d

The morning went by with Thor buried in paperwork and signatures, while Celina organized the documents with an almost cold efficiency. Inside, she was still processing what she had felt when she saw Verônica.They left the company shortly after lunch and stopped at a restaurant near the hotel. Lunch was quiet, but Celina remained silent and introspective.On the way back, Thor noticed the silence."Baby, is everything okay?""I'm fine," she replied with a soft smile, looking out the window.He took one of her hands and kissed it, trying to bring back the warmth from before.When they arrived at the hotel, he pulled the car up in front of the entrance."Go on up. I just need to take care of a few quick things, and I’ll be right back," he said, leaning in to give her a kiss.Celina got out of the car, watching him drive away. Something inside her was stirring. And it was no longer just sadness.It was suspicion.Celina entered the hotel suite, feeling the weight of the world on her shou
