Live In The Present

It all began with a single post about canceling a food delivery order. Overnight, I became the internet's punching bag. Thousands of vicious messages flooded my inbox, filled with photoshopped memorials urging me to die. They doxxed my family, plastered my personal details across shady websites, and used AI to create obscene images of me, spreading them in vile chat groups. They spread lies about my income, claiming it came from illicit sources, and accused me of carrying diseases. I didn't call the police or block the messages. Instead, I read every hateful word before singling out the 100 worst offenders. Every day, I sent each one a luxurious meal: Boston lobster, Australian wagyu, the works. Each delivery came with a simple note: [Thank you for your hard work.]

Eu era a principal conselheira da Família Falcone. O cérebro deles. E hoje, eu estava indo embora — entregando os registros de todos os negócios legítimos que eu administrava e cortando meu último laço. Meu protegido não conseguia entender. — Você é o futuro desta Família, Aurelia. Não pode simplesmente ir embora. Balancei a cabeça com um sorriso amargo. Eles não sabiam. Eu estava secretamente casada com o Don, Vittorio Falcone, há três anos. Eu achava que minha aparência, minha inteligência e tudo o que eu havia oferecido a ele seriam suficientes para conquistar todo o seu amor. Uma execução nas docas, três meses atrás, me mostrou a verdade. Levei treze tiros. Era uma emergência. Eu precisava do cirurgião da família — o que exigia uma ordem direta de Vittorio. Liguei para ele mais de uma dúzia de vezes. Mas quando ele finalmente atendeu, tudo o que ouvi foi uma voz suave e ofegante do outro lado. — Vittorio, ainda não cortamos meu bolo de aniversário. Você pode segurar minha mão e cortar comigo? Aquela voz. Minha melhor amiga. A mulher por quem Vittorio já tinha se apaixonado. Carina. No esconderijo, fraca pela perda de sangue, retirei eu mesma a bala e mandei um dos meus homens me levar às pressas para uma clínica da família. Pouco antes de me levarem para a sala de cirurgia, Vittorio invadiu o lugar — carregando Carina. Era uma torção no tornozelo. Ela precisava de um médico. Agora. Meu cirurgião foi levado embora. Os antibióticos chegaram tarde demais. O ferimento infeccionou. Eu lutei pela minha vida por uma semana. Quando acordei, encarei meu celular. Nem uma única mensagem. As lágrimas finalmente vieram. Eu entendi. Eu era apenas a mulher com quem ele foi forçado a se casar depois de ser drogado e de dormir comigo. Um escândalo evitado. Tudo o que importava para ele era o meu valor e a reputação dele. E eu? A princesa secreta da Família Rossi, que havia aberto mão de tudo para construir o império dele. Tudo por nada. Então eu preparei quatro presentes de despedida. Uma celebração da nossa destruição mútua. E então ele nunca mais me veria.

On the night Valen Varesi's dying first love went into labor, his parents stationed armed men outside my suite to make sure I stayed far away from the private maternity floor and the birth of the Varesi family's heir. I never gave them the scene they were expecting. Not when Sabina Orsini was taken into surgery, not when the baby's first cry carried through the corridor, and not when the whole family finally relaxed. His mother sat beside Sabina's bed, clutching her hand with relief. "As long as we're here," she said, "that barren wife of his won't get anywhere near you or the baby." Valen stood at Sabina's side, wiping the sweat from her forehead with a tenderness I had once believed was mine. "Don't worry," he said. "My father has men covering every exit. If Nerina tries anything, she'll be gone before the night is over." Only then did he finally let himself breathe. As far as Valen was concerned, he had done nothing unforgivable. He had granted a dying woman one final wish and secured the bloodline his family had demanded for years. I was the one refusing to be reasonable. He had even decided that if I came later, apologized to Sabina, and stopped fighting him, he might be generous enough to let me raise the boy in name and keep my place as Mrs. Varesi. What never crossed his mind was that I had already made my decision. By the time Valen finally opens the "gift" I left for his heir ceremony, I will already be gone. And the only thing waiting for him inside is a divorce notice, a twin pregnancy report— and the truth that the children carrying his real bloodline will never call him father.

You think I'm a bully because of house problems, or parent problems” he tells me sneering it out as he walks towards me, which makes me move back as reflex. “Well pretty face, you’ve got it all wrong” he whispers out, taking another step towards me, and as a reflex I move back, until I discover my back has hit the locker “I am a bully because I want to be, because I like it, it is like a hobby you know, so, get the fuck out of my face” he tells me, sneering the last statement, which caught me off-guard, and makes me shiver. “too bad for you also, seems like you’ve seen your match, and I would mind the tone you speak to me Mister” I tell him walking towards him, which makes him take several steps back He looks at me with a face full of surprise, seems like the first time someone stands up to him, I don't know and in fact I don't care.

Some time ago, I was a delivery boy. One day, I received an order to deliver adult toys. When I went to the hotel room, I found a beautiful woman kneeling on a bed with her back turned to me. She only wore a thong. At that moment, I received a message on the delivery app. "Use the toys to bring her pleasure. If you do well, I will reward you with one hundred thousand dollars."

“Are you trying to punish me? I…I don't know how many times I can apologize even if it wasn't my fault that I almost—” “I never asked you to. You do whatever you want, Niya, and I really don't care. Neither should you bother with what I do.” “You're hurt. You're hurt, Alex, and you're acting out. Don't worry we could talk this through. This isn't you.” I try to reach him again but he shoots me a deadly glare that pierces through my skin like a dagger. “Sure it is. You've just never seen me like this. You don't know what I look like when I'm not in love with you,” his brows grow together. “Now we’ve had enough of your drama. You'll find the papers and enjoy the party or use the fucking door.” He pulls away and my eyes cloud again. My ears and heart find it hard to process what is actually going on. The looks on their faces tell me it is awfully too late—I have already lost everything. “Niya, careful now,” my grandmother slowly tugs at my arm as if that will somehow make everything better. “We have guests. Don’t cause a scene.” A scene? I have literally just seen a whole movie, ma. ************* My name is Niya Kendrick. I’m 25, an author who once believed she had the perfect life. But how quickly can everything I love be stripped away in the blink of an eye? Or worse, what if the life, the family I’ve cherished has always been a blatant lie, a mere fragment of the truth? Now, I’m awake, and reality is far harsher than any dream.
