The Bride

Even though that word still stuck in my head, I knew exactly what I was going to do. She took off her shirt and threw it outside the pool, took off her bikini, threw it and covered her chest with both hands.

I took a deep breath before turning around and showing my bare back. I felt his eyes and pierced my skin. I hoped he looked at it as long as he wanted. I felt him go down into the water and soon he followed me and touched my shoulder which made me shiver.

“It wasn’t necessary.”

He turned to me and whispered. I took my hand off my chest. I looked into his eyes

Something, maybe the truth.

“It won’t change you.

it’s still you and I admire it

You are human.”

Tears were flowing in my eyes. “I may not know your story, but I know you are special, Cassie.”

‘It was boring. I didn’t know you had it.

“You don’t know much about me, I’m kind.” I giggled as she whispered. He smiled softly at me and kissed me.

I pushed my body towards him and kissed him

back. “What does it mean?

behind you?”

let’s see who

What was he doing here? this night?

Tuberculosis

Do you think Tristan is telling Chloe the truth? IT

“Sophia?”

As soon as I saw her, I put on red lipstick and grunted.

I followed Tristan, but not all the way, staying in his sight and hiding at the same time. – Hey, Trist.

She looks like a seductive woman, her high black heels have gold chains around her ankles and you can smell her here.

Her burgundy dress was too short, but it fit her well.

– I didn’t say he was coming. He looked at me before speaking.

“I’m here to say hello because you left me at the altar for a little girl and decided I didn’t exist anymore.”

I closed my eyes and looked at her red nails, which strangely caught my attention. “We were friends before we met. I don’t hate you for your stupid decision, I didn’t plan on getting pregnant anyway. Will I be a full-time model next year and need this body with time to nurse a crying baby?

Finally, I have an angry face.

“Well, friends check in with each other, even if the other person doesn’t care.”

she said as she brushed her long hair over her shoulder. “Thanks for your concern, but I should have called.”

Tristan’s angry voice came.

“I’m sorry to spoil your luck.”

He added long-clawed air quotes to “Moment.”

“By the way, what’s so scary about your back?”

He stuck out his right hip and crossed his arms. I wanted to say it was none of his business, but Tristan beat me to it.

“Body art. I did it an hour ago.”

Smooth, how can I forget his mastery of lies? “This is the ugliest body art I’ve ever seen.”

He frowned.

If looks could kill a man, he’d be dead now because I poked his eyes out with a knife. – Sophia, why are you here?

She asked as if she knew he was lying. “To speak.”

He looked serious now. “Single.” he added looking at me.

– Okay, let’s meet in the living room.

Tristan looked at me pitifully and took my hand. “Are you ok?” “Yes why not?”

“Stay here, I’ll be back.”

He smiled softly at me and left the pool.

I took a deep breath and put on my bikini and shirt. After being in the water for a while, I got tired of waiting for him and got out. I drank more, dried myself, squeezed water out of my hair and towel dried it further. I left with two glasses and the rest of the wine. I didn’t see them in the living room, I did

It’s around, but I can’t find it. I frowned and dropped what was in the kitchen.

When I got to my room, I took a steamy shower. I wore my favorite flannel pajama shorts and a big sweater over the pajama shorts.

I decided to go to school, threw everything on the bed and was comfortable. My mind wandered to Tristan and Sofia, where were they? I thought they wanted to talk in the living room. I shook my head.

Tristan didn’t like Sofia, but I did

I thought he came to seduce

he. “Focus. Focus. Focus.”

I hit my forehead with a pen. I had to finish one Chapter and I’m about to start the next one.

Someone knocked on my door. “cash? Woken up?’

Hearing his voice, an unknown praise came to me.

“Yes”.

I tried to sound normal, but I could hear the emotion in my voice. She opened the door and her white skin, sculpted breasts and belly caught my attention.

“I’m sorry it took so long.”

He was sitting next to my book and his body was right in front of me. I bit the inside of my lip and cleared my mind.

– I didn’t see you in the living room.

I stood up and said, keeping my distance from his strong body. “I didn’t feel comfortable, so I went into the garden.”

I nodded a little relieved, but I wanted to know what they were talking about.

‘He came to talk about what happened at church and kept crying and accusing you. It took him an hour to calm him down.”

He spoke as if he read my mind. “Drama Game”.

I teased. “What are you doing?” “School studies”.

“You can do it tomorrow.”

He gathered everything and put it on the table in my bedroom.

He went to the other side of the bed and stood up and I crossed my legs and looked at him. He rested his back on his head and propped himself up on one leg.

I didn’t know it was alcohol, but now I’m more confident and wanted to confess to a terrible ex-girlfriend who left a terrible scar on my back. I didn’t believe him, but I wanted to know about his PTSD so he could open up to me and tell me who Nadia was.

“Do you want to hear the story of my terrible ex?”

“It’s sure. Sounds interesting.”

“Don’t judge me before I start. I was desperately stupid and did something stupid.”

“Then we’re even. I don’t judge.”

‘I grew up in a family where you were told what to wear, what music to listen to and what movies to watch, and we weren’t allowed to leave the house to be with friends we hated, but we could. I won’t tell my parents

“I wanted more, I wanted to experience more, I wanted to mature quickly and be free.”

I looked at him and he looked at me with great interest. ‘I think it’s a good thing they didn’t send us to boarding school. My mother had an idea, but my father was against it.

I had famous friends in high school and I was so envious of them that they could do whatever they wanted. I’m rich but I’ve never been on vacation so I don’t know what I’m talking about so I’m always out of the conversation. There were so many places I wanted to see, especially Paris.”

I stopped and gave him a soft, humorless laugh.

‘Things got worse when they started talking to the boys about parties, first kisses and seniors.

I want a date.”

I played with the hem of the sweater.

‘This was my chance because my brother was having a party. I broke it

I met Jack at a party that night and he offered me my first glass, a drink.

I laughed and Tristan smiled.

‘She was cute and charming and could still go crazy with drunk people. He was the first brother I ever dated.

I smiled calmly.

‘But he left me as a transfer student. my second lover, Corbyn; Fool, you met me with the stupid bet you knew when you met me”.

‘My third boyfriend, Daniel, was abused and I thought I could change him, but it was too much. I got involved and got banned so I quit. my mistake

friend”

I stopped and took a deep breath and lo and behold it got worse.

“You don’t have to tell me.” “take care.”

I laughed. ‘His name is Zach and he was addicted to drugs. He taught me how to smoke and other drugs I can’t remember. It was fun at first. I liked to have fun, but he did strange things and started fighting. Those who did not deliver the medicine on time. “The day I tried to confront him, he pushed me to the ground and strangled me to death and was so aggressive.”

I said nothing and smiled sadly at him.

“When I tried to talk to him again, he was right and we were done.”

“My fifth boyfriend, Jonah, was nice and kind at first.”

I stopped and smiled, a smile that brought tears to my eyes. “He tied me to a chair and made me watch him have sex with other women.”

“For what?”

Tristan made a funny face. Because she refused to have sex with him.”

– Are you still with him?

“If I was going to leave him, he threatened to tell my parents about my wild nature on the outside because he knew all about me, but he got bored and let me go.”

I smiled softly to myself. “Dominino”

– I said smiling and his warm gray eyes appeared on my head. “He was the perfect definition of evil.

Her beauty turns heads, people pay to see the tattoos on her body and her smile shines.”

“Just tell me you bored me with all those fangirl stories.”

“I went out with her,” I reminded her.

“Then what happened?” Don’t tell me how you met or how you hurt me, tell me like everyone else.”

I frowned.

“Dominino was nice but everyone thought he was mean and rude but he treated me differently and made me special and everyone treated me as a friend.”

– It’s true?

Tristan groaned, irritated by the cheap talk. “First I wanted to say that he is a good person. Dominino had a secret and it didn’t take long for me to find out.”

“Because you’re too hot.” Tristan entered.

“It’s a part of me. Apparently he was the son of a famous Italian mobster and also worked for his father.

“So you kicked him?”

“No, I stayed because I loved him. He let me hang out with his group that works with his dad. They were all good except for Gray.”

– Ex-boyfriend?

‘Yes, he was friends with someone in Dominiano’s gang. But it had nothing to do with the company, only with us.

He didn’t like me, he was always looking at me and the feelings were always mutual.”

“Why?” he asked smiling. “He always said I wasn’t one of them or pretended to be someone else, but he never”

He called me a little desperate**. That day, Dominiano broke his nose and never came back.

‘I’m used to fighting and I met his father once, but he didn’t like it. Every night I hid in their den, and that night I had bloody fights with other gangs. “I didn’t know what was going on, but I was afraid for my life and for other people, so I called the police,” he said.

“What are you waiting for?”

She smiled to keep her composure, motioning for me to continue talking. “I tried to help, but I didn’t think about the consequences! I was scared! I was only 17 and too young to die.”

I tried to defend myself. – Yes, I was stupid.

I looked at him. “Okay, I don’t need to remind you, and you said you wouldn’t judge.”

‘I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself. And what happened?’

‘Some of them were arrested, but Dominiano and the other four escaped and took me to a small apartment to hide until the search was over. He suspected someone from another group called the police, but I betrayed myself.

“Oh God.”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

He frowned and groaned.

‘It was necessary, and if you find out later, you will kill me. Dominiano had anger issues and would be terrible.”

– And you told him?

He looked at me in disbelief.

“Even if I’m a fool, will you finish so I don’t feel stupid?”

“Keep going”. “thanks.”

I said dramatically. ‘Well, Dominino passed out when I talked to him and he said harsh words to me in front of the kids.

He took a hand of my hair and dragged me into the only bedroom in the apartment, saying that he wanted to give me a punishment that I would never forget, a punishment that would make me miserable.”

I stopped thinking about that day. “What he did?”

“He… protected me by force. He took my virginity without using protection and said he wanted to get pregnant and that was his punishment. I cried and tried

I tried to stop him but he was too strong and I begged him to stop and to my surprise he did.”

I held back the tears from my eyes.

‘But he decided to punish me and dragged me into the living room and asked a boy for a knife. “He put the knife on the stove and lit it for a few minutes. I saw the situation and tried to run away, but he told the men to hold me.”

“He zipped up the back of my shirt and tried to draw a D with a hot knife and I screamed my lungs out in pain. It got worse when I tried to fight them off and made the cut look ugly. I got sick and passed out and woke up in a dark alley with a notepad in my hand.”

‘He said I was done and he said he would come back for me if I sold him to the police. I was too weak to find my way home, but Gray came and his friend called and told me where I was. I go to the hospital and

he stayed with me”.

“But that night I had to go home and the doctors were against it. I didn’t want my family to worry and call the police.”

“Didn’t anyone in your family know about your rough past?”

‘My sister in the bathroom saw me smoking weed and warned me to stop, but I never told my parents, I told all my boyfriends and she didn’t like Dominiano. He wanted to talk about rape about his parents, but asked not to be a good girl. –

– Didn’t you tell her about her?

“I told the bike because I saw a bicycle.”

– How did you become gray? “After saving my ass. I never saw him

Before returning to college, we went in this direction. We couldn’t get to know each other for a while, but he asked. But he asked me because he thought it was difficult because it changed a lot in my life. –

“You have to say that you actually have a negative taste for men or you will worsen.”

– This is right. And you are one of them. -Yes, I am.

Whisper slowly. “I thought you’d cry one day.”

Thank God. He did not see those who drove him away.

“Nice to meet you, Gray.”

I whispered after a while. “Anyway he was a fool, he threw you good, I told him to cover up,

He didn’t even argue.

“I still don’t blame him, it’s all your fault.”

“Whatever keeps you up at night, we both know it’s not about me.”

I looked at the wall clock and yawned.

“Come here.”

When he touched something next to him, I went to him and lay on my back. “good night.”

I whimpered. – Good night Cassie.

He whispered close to my ear and I felt his warm air in my nose. As I tried to sleep with my eyes closed, he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me to his bare chest.

– Do you sleep here?

He didn’t answer and I looked back and…

He closed his eyes. I turned off the bedside lamp and went to bed. I was happy to tell him about my terrible ex and felt like a heavy weight had been lifted off my body. He’ll be talking about Nadia soon. I wanted to know who she was.

I woke up alone in bed and last night wasn’t bad. I told him my situation

It’s been rough and I’m glad I got it

from my chest

I was lazy today and wanted to lay in bed all day and do nothing, but I needed food. I forced myself out of bed and went to wash my face.

Adrian and Karen are already on vacation and I want to go there too. I grabbed the banister to support my lazy bones and made my way down the stairs.

– Good morning, Mrs. Simpson, how are you?

night?”

“Okay, did you have a good night?” “Yes, Miss Simpson.”

I smiled at him and sat down. The bacon was too salty, but I had to eat it because Maurice was less than six feet away.

My phone rang and saved me from the third bite. I don’t remember saving Tristan’s name on my phone, I didn’t even know he had contacts.

“Tristan?”

I said first to make sure it was him. “Hey Cathy, did I wake you up?”

– No, it’s in the kitchen. “Okay, um…”

“Is something wrong?” – Mother called.

– It’s good?

“Yeah, they said they’d send a driver to pick you up.”

“For what?”

“He won’t, he told me he wanted to spend the day with you.”

‘You are safe? I mean, he wants to know more about us and might force him to go to the hospital to see if the baby is okay.

“My mother hates hospitals. I told him I don’t like talking about how our relationship started or our pregnancy.”

“good.”

I still didn’t like the idea.

“Be ready by ten o’clock.” “I’ll give it my all.”

“If you don’t want to go, you better not go.”

“I want it.”

Not showing up is rude. – Good, have fun.

“pleasure”.

I whispered when I was done

phone.

‘I’m sorry, Maurice.

Something came out.

I said after taking the last bite. He smiled as I was about to leave.

After 8 o’clock I was looking through the closet to find clothes to wear. It took me an hour to get ready and I got a blue flannel shirt that came above my knees. The shirt had a white collar and three white buttons down the front.

I put my head down and put on my amulet

My name bracelet and one over it. gold chain

When Maurice knocks on my door…

The driver’s white teeth come and go

my tidy room. my little

The driver was Spanish and I spoke to him in Spanish.

I remember when I was in high school. He smiled at me as I tried to form a few sentences.

When the mileage is short and the car stalls, I feel dizzy. To tell the truth, I lied to Mrs. Sanchester one day and was worried about her health. I smiled at Eduardo and led him down the stairs to the three story white mansion. I took a deep breath before ringing the doorbell. Large columns support the top and chaise longue with round designer cushions adorn the porch.

Looking around the lawn that looked manicured enough to sleep on, I almost laughed when I saw the gold Versace logo on the wide door, which I thought was the Versace door. As I waited for someone to open the door and looked at the peach jeep parked in front of the garage, my heart skipped a beat when the door opened.

A woman dressed as a maid smiled at me, a neat bun on top of her head matching her oval face. I want it to be free

Good box looks like it and does not look like an electric shock.

“Hello.”

I said, tightening the bag straps. ‘You must be Miss Chloe Simpson. Welcome to Sanchester Castle. Ms. Sanchester awaits you in the small living room upstairs.

“Please vote.”

I could tell right away that her voice as she spoke was lovely and so lovely.

– Hi, I’m Sarah.

– Chloe, you already know. I said. “Mr. Sanchester is waiting.”

He stepped back so I could enter. I followed him as he drove and continued to look around. The interior was great and every piece of furniture had a unique design and craftsmanship.

It looked beautiful and original. I wondered how much it would cost to have a painting like this hanging on a high wall as if someone had spilled it. What does this artist’s head do? – Welcome, Miss Chloe.

I turned the corner and saw another girl, holding a heavy looking triple scarf.

“Hello.”

I smiled at him. “Did Madame Sanchester announce her arrival?”

‘The truth is, everyone who works here knows you. Nana always talks about you and Nora bets everyone that you’re going to have a baby. Mrs. Sanchester loves you very much.

he said walking up the grand staircase from the Italian red carpet.

going down the stairs. I felt something slowly eat away at my chest, cheating on each of them, and the guilt of being around them made me more anxious.

“Here.”

He stood at the door and knocked, and I heard the woman’s voice. Sanchez’s voice.

“all”.

I smiled at Sarah and entered. “Chloe!”

Nana stood up from her chair and shouted.

– Hi, Nana.

He hugged me tightly. “You smell so good.”

He said as he drove. “thanks.”

– Hi, Chloe.
