CHAPTER 10: THE SNAKE
"Okay, where do you want me to hang it?" I asked, marveling at his painting."I don't know…" His lips twitched."Wherever you want, sweetie.It was decided to put it in our living room. The landscape made a wonderful contrast with the white wall. I hugged him on the shoulders, while we remained immersed in the painting."I'm proud of you, Isaac."Thank you, mom" he said, then looked at his watch. I'm late for school!“Yes, I know, I know... Grab your backpack and we'll go” He snorted looking for her, I stayed in my place watching him run up. Like any Monday, nothing strange was the rush my little boy was in. Aware of his slavery to punctuality, I took the car keys and my phone. I didn't want him to get hysterical, any more than I already do.I drove through the city, enduring the terrible morning traffic. I put on a song to calm Isaac down, he kept repeating that he was going to miss an important exam.“Mother! I'm not supposed to have a nine, if I'm late, then the teacher will deduct
CHAPTER 11: PROFESSIONALLY
"Valentina, you scared me!" I brought a palm to my chest."Answer, redhead."Why are you suddenly acting like a harpy?" I growled demanding. It's not my fault that Anastasia let me do the interview.She twisted a lock of her golden hair around her ring finger and played with it. She seemed insane. My head hit the alarm button, in case the blonde tried something.“Well, it doesn't seem fair to me, I got to this place before you. I'm sick of covering little stories, writing about nonsense, while you hit the jackpot and become Anastasia's favorite” she spat hotly, feline."Then that's what it's about, you're jealous" You should talk to Anastasia, in the end she is the one who decides who goes and who stays. I responded harshly, faced with that sudden viper wanting to bite me and stick its venom into my skin."Something strange is going on, don't you think?" He spoke narrowing his eyes, agitated. Overnight, Anastasia finds you perfect and decides to give you a golden platter to go after a
CHAPTER 12: DESTROYER FIRE
I couldn't sleep a wink all night, thinking about Valentina's words. That woman had started with a nightmare that left my body bathed in sweat, an unpleasant sensation in my chest as I tried not to fall into the hole of restlessness at dawn.On Thursday morning, my little son, a time freak, woke me up, swarming with excessive concern that he would be late for school. With so much sleeplessness last night I did not rest a bit, consequently I fell asleep. I woke up sleepily, trying to wake up all the senses."Mommy, you have to hurry" he pointed out for the hundredth time, showing me the time on his watch.“I fell asleep, I’m sorry. Did you have breakfast?”"Yes" he said sourly, impatiently. I can't be late, I have swimming today, do you forget?“No! Of course, I do not forget, Isaac” I raised my tone, I walked to the bathroom and before turning the knob I went back to him “Wait downstairs, I promise I won't be long”He narrowed his eyes, finally came out. I huffed in front of the mirro
CHAPTER 13: QUICKSAND
“Are you talking seriously?” he asked with a wild look.I looked everywhere, preventing a third party from hanging around, listening to other people's conversations. I don't know why she thought she was playing with something like that, on the other hand I understood her, it wasn't just any man."I don't like to talk about it, it's a delicate matter, that's why I've kept it to myself, Beatriz," I explained taking a breath, my lungs urging it. In the past, we had something and when I found out that I was pregnant we were no longer together, I never told him anything because he had married”She gasped like a fish out of its habitat, even clutching at the marble, puzzled. I couldn't guess everything that was going through his head, but I was sure he was shocked."You know I don't like gossip, but how did you meet him?" He wanted to know."Promise you won't tell anyone, Beatriz.""I won't tell anyone, Mariané. You know you can trust me" he said with a smile.From that moment on, she turne
CHAPTER 14: LOSING CONTROL
The mirror reflected an image alien to me. But it was me, dressed in a wine-red dress, with a slight neckline in front that highlighted my breasts, back out and rounded cut; she was wearing black stiletto heels, which she wasn't used to, no way. Looking good had its awkward side. The incredible look was complemented by my friend, making my fiery long hair an updo.With red matte lips, eyeliner and mascara, I was ready to go. Rarely did this version of me come out of hiding, but this way seemed like the first time I wasn't hiding in a shell.A whistle coming from those feminine lips made me flutter my eyes. Kelly, on the edge of my bed, kept looking at me like I was a Picasso painting."Don't stay there, go on, go break hearts" he pointed out with giggles.I shook my head, looking like teenage Kelly, definitely not going on a hunt. Rather, I should be the one to avoid being devoured at all costs in that circle of old millionaires.“Although I like the result, I don't feel like the owne
CHAPTER 15: BREATHING
We take off our clothes, leaving room for inquisitive drift, space to clarify the passionate darkness going through our bodies in an intense spiral. Our free will was decided by the wrongness that felt so good, the sin that without realizing it imprisoned us again.He snatched the expensive dress from my skin and threw it somewhere in the hotel room. His eyes gleamed like those of a wolf having dinner served. I fixed my gaze on his long fingers unzipping his dark pants, I bit my lip, I knew in advance what would come next. His manhood came out, I flushed all over, but steeled myself to receive it anyway.He flipped me onto my back, pinned my wrists, a clear warning that he was in control. Once exposed to him, he coursed through me with lust and treachery. His lips played with my nipples, and I moaned, arching from the surge of pleasure that just his mischievous tongue generated. He spent a long time devouring my mounds hardened by the heat of his warm breath scattering wet oscules, co
CHAPTER 16: CONFUSED MIST
“I…”“You don't have to answer, little flower.“Ismail, I feel terrible. Having slept with you, that you are a married man, makes me a…”"Don't you dare say it" he warned, absorbing a sigh, lifting my chin for me to look at him. I couldn't reply, nothing, her hypnotic sapphires made me a docile woman “I have seen you arrive at the event, clearly uncomfortable, I thought that at some point during the night you would notice my presence”He was right, it had been strange not to notice his attention on me, with all that magnetism he exuded, how could I not see and feel it? Ismail released the sweet grip and placed his palm on my waist again. The heat that radiated did not stop penetrating deep into my skin, unleashing chaos."I don't know, those places make me stunned…" I whispered affectedly in the dense mist that enveloped us. In the bathroom I found your companion, why her?"Alexa?" He inquired and I affirmed softly. That will have told half the world, she's just the spoiled daughter o
CHAPTER 17: CONFUSION
“Many people were at the event, as for Ismail, no, I didn't find him”It was true, he was the one who intercepted me in the middle of the parking lot. So, he wasn't exactly telling a lie."Something isn't looking good, you can't save yourself from me anyway, naughty redhead," he warned, leaving me frozen”I sighed and decided to end the call. I looked at myself in the mirror for a while, there was nothing wrong with the striking pale pink dress, even though its exorbitant cost was three thousand dollars, quite normal coming from Ismail. I suppose compensation, in your opinion, for ruining my clothes last night.And an extra like white Louboutin’s.I ran my eyes over my face looking for a mistake, but strange as it was, my eyes were shining.I went back to Ismail. He had finished eating, now he was talking on the phone, as soon as he saw me, he ended the conversation with the person on the other end of the line. It didn't surprise me that it was his wife. The possibility stabbed me.“I
