Some call her RED, others call her the Angel of death. Whichever one she was called she lived up to it, she was invincible, smart, swift, and merciless and she had a meek twin, who serves in an orphanage. She was mistress to one of the most formidable Spanish gangsters, who was also ruthless. They were perfect for each other, given their hardness of heart. Luck was on their side until one fateful day, RED died in the middle of an operation, and for the fear of getting killed, her partners pleaded with her twin sister to pose as her. But their lives were two opposite ones and the other twin wasn't used to the life of her sister and the man she was living with. What happens when an Angel meets a Demon?
View MoreThe next night, Sofia slept in the master's bedroom with Mariana. She had been scared of sleeping alone in her room because it was raining again that night. It was something Maya would never have agreed to. In the past, Sofia had tried sleeping on her father's bed because she was scared of the rain, but Red had blatantly refused. She even stopped the little girl from coming over to her daddy's room. According to her, she needed her privacy. Mariana told her the story of the twins again that night and before long, she sank into a peaceful sleep. Mariana slept off too but was awoken by a noise at the door. The handle of the door was squeaking and turning when she opened her eyes. Her heart skipped a bit, she slowly disentangled herself from Sofia who was still fast asleep, and took her phone from the nightstand. It was two a.m. in the morning. She wondered who could be at the door by that time of the night. The person behind the door started knocking. Climbing out of be
Federico went out of the room and down the stairs, he turned on the lights on the stairs. When he got down to the living room, he saw Gabriella sitting by the veranda drinking champagne, with her legs crossed. He stood there and stared at her for a while, before walking over to her. "What are you doing up by this time?" he asked behind her. She turned sharply and looked at him. "You are awake? I didn't want to disturb you. I couldn't sleep." He took a seat opposite her. "Why?" She dropped the glass on the table. "I have been thinking about Red's sister. She doesn't know anything yet, don't you think we should strike now?" "Miguel is no fool, you b*tch. We will have to wait for our girl's signal until she tells us to go ahead, we don't have to act like fools or we will be walking into a trap." Gabriella smiled lopsidedly. "Trap you say?" she said slowly and picked up her glass again. "Miguel knows nothing and this is the best opportunity to do whatever we
She didn't realize it it was raining until she went into Sofia's room, Sofia's curtain was not drawn and the sound of the rain fell harshly on the roof, the drapes billowed in the wind and lightning flashed across the sky. The room was dark but the light from the lightning made her see the girl crying and convulsing on the bed, kicking her hands and legs. She ran over to her bed and sat down beside her. "Hey, baby, it's okay, it's okay," she said raising the child and holding her to her chest, but Sofia was not calming down. She tried to hold the girl but Sofia was still having a night terror. Mariana figured it might be the rain, she quickly stood up, shut the windows, and drew the drapes, shutting out the sound of the rain and the claps of thunder. She went back to the scared child and hugged her. Sofia clung to her like her life depended on it and slowly, her body started to relax. "You are safe now," Mariana whispered, kissed her hair, and stroked it gently. "Yo
Prisca dropped two bottles of coke on the table, in front of Mariana who was beaming with smiles. Pisca was looking all curious and eager. Mariana knew she wanted to hear everything that has been going on in the mansion. Prisca slid one bottle over to Mariana and sat down opposite Mariana, her face broad with smiles. "Now, I need all the juicy details. How big is the mansion? How have you been getting along with Sofia? Is Maya's husband as handsome as he sounds? Most importantly, have you both f*cked yet?" Prisca asked giggling. Mariana's eyes dilated in shock, she opened her mouth and looked around the cafe. A few nuns were in the cafe but none of them seems to be listening or interested in their conversation. Prisca's eyes widened. "Wait a minute, you both have had sex, right?" She didn't mind that her voice was loud. "Can you keep it down?" Mariana said almost in a whisper. Prisca was loud like that especially when she was excited about something or e
When Mariana woke up again, she was alone in the room. It took her that three to four seconds grace period before she remembered who she was and where she was. The room was warm and the walls covered with dark wallpapers added to its coziness, she watched the spiral chandelier that spun down from the ceiling thinking about how her life took a drastic turn in the space of weeks. Everything she had just heard in stories was happening to her. She was being despised by a kid she never knew, she was falling fast and helplessly for a man who promised only danger and she was being haunted by someone for some reason she couldn't even tell. Her life had been a complete opposite of all those a few weeks ago. "You are awake." The voice was feminine and smooth but it startled her all the same. Even though she was visibly firm now, her heart was still quivering from the event and the icy glare of the man who had almost kidnapped her was still clear in her mind-eyes. She was a lit
Mariana felt herself upside down. She was leaning on something hard and it was pressing into her stomach. Her arms were dangling and something clamped her legs so tight that she couldn't move. Her cheeks stung so badly. Her eyes fluttered open and she found herself facing the ground. Someone was carrying her over their shoulders. A man, she saw the shoes of a man. It took her a few seconds to remember what had happened. Everything flashed in her eyes as the man carried her towards his car. He was in the garage. She had not passed out for long now. They were still within the hotel premises and somehow she hoped for a miracle. Dear God, please send Miguel to help me, she made a silent prayer in her heart. She shouldn't have let anger get ahold of her. She knew Miguel wasn't hers and she shouldn't have overreacted like that. As the man carried her to the car, she contemplated if she should fight or remain calm. If she fight the man, she will definitely not win and
At that moment, Mariana felt like flying into his strong arms and staying reassured that she was safe. Pedro led her to Miguel who took her hand and it calmed all her nerves. "Are you alright?" he asked, looking directly at her. She nodded, taking her eyes away from him, ignoring the stir it made in her heart. He led her to the rooftop which was a restaurant with Pedro trailing silently behind them. The view on the rooftop took Mariana's breath away. It was an amazing place, a few antique tables were set in two rows, creating a path at the center, and the seats were adorned with bright, colorful cushions that looked fluffy. The only lights in the room were strings of patio lights and candles on the tables, the railing was glass and Mariana could see the city stretched miles beneath her, the tiny lights from windows, shining against the dark, suddenly looked perfect to her. She had only seen this kind of place in the movies and had never dreamt or thought that one
Miguel's gaze was piercing and it unnerved her, even though she had told herself that she was ready for it. But once his eyes were set on her, the words got stuck in her throat. "Yes, Red. I want to know the truth?" "Uhm...I...I..." she stuttered. Miguel looked away from her and looked at Arturo and the rest. "What is going on? Can someone explain what is going on?" his voice was suddenly cold like steel. "Honestly..." Mariana said out of breath, commanding Miguel's attention to her once again. "I can't keep it anymore, you were going to find out about it anyway," the words rushed out of her mouth. She could see the blood draining from Alicia's face and Arturo looking at Alicia. It was only the teenage girl who had an amused expression, almost like she was enjoying what was happening. Mariana didn't know when Adriana would take anything seriously. "I think I have hidden it enough." Miguel's eyes were watching her eagerly. Alicia must have decided to
