Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Eight years ago, my first love, Zyla Garcia, dumped me. Right in front of me, she threw herself into the arms of a rich scion named Brett Salway. She said condescendingly, "Kieran, you asked me to wait for you for three years. But how many three years does a woman have?" I begged her desperately, but she remained unmoved. Brett even ordered someone to pin me to the ground and force me to finish a bottle of red wine before letting me leave. "You should thank me, Kieran. Otherwise, you would never have the chance to drink such expensive wine in your life!" Brett sneers. I watched as they got into a luxury car and drove off. Eight years later, I am one of the most powerful figures in this city—and I run into them again.

Léa Morel, 28 ans, conceptrice-rédactrice dans une agence de communication parisienne, croit avoir bien cerné les hommes et leurs jeux… jusqu'au jour où son agence remporte un contrat colossal avec une start-up en pleine ascension, dirigée par le charismatique et indéchiffrable Gabriel Delaunay, 34 ans. Entre eux, la tension est immédiate : un mélange explosif de défi, d’irritation et d’attirance qu’ils tentent d’ignorer… sans succès. Quand Léa découvre que Gabriel a la réputation d’être imbattable dans l’art de charmer pour obtenir ce qu’il veut, elle décide de lui opposer une règle aussi simple que dangereuse : « Pas de séduction. Pas d’avances. Et surtout : interdiction de me faire craquer. » Gabriel accepte… mais retourne le défi : « Très bien. Mais si je gagne, je veux un vrai rendez-vous. » Ce qui devait n’être qu’un jeu devient un piège émotionnel dans lequel ils s’enfoncent tous les deux : entre rivalité, joutes verbales, vulnérabilités révélées malgré eux, et un passé qui resurgit. Sauf qu’il n’y aura pas de gagnant possible : On n’affronte pas le désir. On l’apprivoise.

Crecí fuera del país y, para evitar que volviera con un novio extranjero, mi mamá me arregló en Ciudad de México un prometido de ensueño: Gabriel Méndez, el carismático CEO del Grupo Méndez. Regresé para nuestra fiesta de compromiso. La boutique de alta costura olía a flores blancas y cuero nuevo. Entre maniquíes impecables, encontré el vestido perfecto: un strapless largo color marfil, limpio como una promesa. Ya iba a probármelo cuando, a mi lado, una mujer alzó la barbilla, le echó un vistazo a lo que traía y le dijo a la vendedora: —Ese vestido está interesante. Tráemelo a mí. La asesora me lo arrebató con brusquedad. Se me calentó la cara. —Todo tiene un orden —dije conteniéndome—. Ese vestido lo vi primero. ¿Aquí ya no existe el “primero en llegar, primero en ser atendido”? La mujer me miró con pereza, sonrisita de superioridad. —Ese vestido cuesta veintiséis mil dólares. ¿Tú, con esa facha, puedes pagarlo? —chasqueó la lengua—. Soy la protegida de Gabriel Méndez, CEO del Grupo Méndez. En esta ciudad, la razón la pone la familia Méndez. Gabriel Méndez… ¿no es mi prometido? Saqué el celular, e hice una rápida llamada. —Tu “protegida” me acaba de arrebatar mi vestido de compromiso. ¿Cómo piensas resolverlo?

Quelle est la première chose que tu ferais si tu renaissais ? Moi ? Je commencerais par divorcer de mon mari, Gabriel Delacroix. Oui, Gabriel Delacroix, le même homme qui dirige la moitié du monde criminel depuis l'ombre. Le Parrain. L'homme le plus riche du monde. Celui dont rêvent toutes les femmes ; son visage était partout sur les magazines, nommé « L'homme le plus sexy du monde » cinq années de suite. Dans ma vie précédente, j'avais tout essayé pour qu'il me regarde comme si j'avais de l'importance. Je l'avais épousé. J'avais donné naissance à son fils. J'avais avalé toute ma fierté en essayant d'être l'épouse parfaite. Mais ça n'avait pas marché. Pour lui, je n'étais pas différente d'une serveuse à qui il laisserait un pourboire — oubliable, remplaçable, invisible. Alors cette fois, je ne supplie pas. Je ne fais pas semblant. Je remets à Madeleine Girard la clé de ma place dans sa vie, et je m'en vais. C'est le premier amour de Gabriel, et aussi l'ombre qui avait hanté chacun de mes jours dans ma vie précédente. Madeleine était assise en face de moi ; elle a cligné des yeux comme si elle n'avait pas bien compris ce que je venais de dire. « Tu as tellement essayé de me repousser », a-t-elle dit lentement, les yeux plissés. « Et maintenant tu veux que je sois avec Gabriel ? » « Oui. C'est tout ce que je demande. Parle à Gabriel. Dis-lui de signer les papiers du divorce. » J'ai regardé son visage confus et j'ai continué : « Tout le monde sait que je ne pourrais jamais abandonner Gabriel. Alors si je dis que je veux divorcer, il ne me croira pas une seule seconde. Mais toi ? C'est toi qui peux faire en sorte que ça arrive… n'est-ce pas ? » Elle a ri, parce qu'elle avait enfin sa chance. J'ai ri aussi, parce que j'étais enfin libre.
