"But why Andrew?"

He looks at me with an evil smile glued to his lips that sends shivers down my spine.

I can't believe the nice André Nelson I met could be so...scary.

He slowly walks over to me and sits down on the bed leaning his face close to mine. I can feel his breath against my face.

"I have my worst enemy's wife tied up and trapped in my bed, why not take advantage of it?

-Your worst enemy?! Are you talking about Leo? Leo Alvarez?

He nods and smiles sadistically at me.

"I'm not his wife! I'm not dating that jerk anymore! I swear!"

He laughs bitterly, throwing his head back, then looks at me with his now dark eyes.

"Yeah right. Say whatever you want, but I won't believe you.

- But it's the truth André! I'm not his wife anymore, well I mean we didn't get married. He married Melina Rodriguez. You can check if you don't believe me."

He frowns and remains silent for a few seconds before exiting the room, leaving me alone. I already feel the tears that are about to flow. Oh no ! Nope ! I must not cry! Not now ! The weak and sensitive Emily is over!

A few minutes later, a person enters the room and I immediately recognize my so-called "savior". The young man who put a handkerchief on my nose.

"Hi !" He told me with a silly smile plastered on his face

I don't answer and stare at the ceiling. I don't want to talk about it.

I hear him blow before he comes to sit next to me.

"I'm so sorry. I know you're mad at me but I need more money...it's my job."

His job ?! Since when is kidnapping people a job?!

I stare at him, clenching my jaw.

"Your job ?" I said, laughing bitterly. "But yeah of course, I didn't know that putting people to sleep and kidnapping them was a job.

-I had no choice ! I didn't want to but it's the only way for me to pay my mother's medical bills!"

What ?!

I look at him to see if he was kidding me but seeing a tear running down his cheek, I knew he wasn't lying.

"She's seriously ill, isn't she?" I asked him softly

He nods and I can see another tear fall which he wipes away quickly so I don't see.

"You can cry you know, just because you're a man doesn't mean you can't shed tears." I said

He avoids my gaze by playing with his fingers. No one spoke for several seconds until he spoke.

"Lung cancer." He let go, continuing to play with his fingers.

"Eh ?

- My mother has lung cancer.

-Oh fuck ! I am really sorry for you.

-Why are you apologizing? It's not your fault." He said looking at me.

I nod and then stare at him. It's pretty good!

But no more than André. Tells me my conscience

Argh! Why did I have to fall in love with this psychopath?!

"What's your name ?" I asked him

"Mark." He said holding out his hand for me to shake.

"I'm Emily. I would love to shake your hand but unfortunately I can't see that my wrists are tied to the bars of the bed.

-Oh."

He nervously scratches his head in embarrassment as I laugh at his face.

"Stop! This is embarrassing.

- No, but you should have seen your face." I said laughing

He looks at me for a few seconds before starting to laugh too when suddenly the door opens abruptly revealing André.

He looks at us in turn before clenching his fists and his jaw.

Oh oh it smells like trouble.

"Mark, get out of here!" Coldly said André

"But...

-GO OUTSIDE !"

Marc gives me a sorry smile and leaves the room while André stares at me, looking furious.

"What ?!" I say curtly

"May I know what's going on between you two?" he asked me coldly

"Huh?! But what are you talking about?!

- Stop pretending! I'm talking about Marc and you! What's going on between you two?"

I dream where he is jealous?

“Why is nothing happening? Are you jealous?

-Of course not ! I'm not jealous!

-And anyway, I don't care! I do what I want ! It's none of your business if something happens between Marc and me. We're not a couple as far as I know!"

He suddenly smiles as he walks over to the bed and sits down next to me.

"Maybe we can get together, don't you think?" He said sensually caressing my cheek

I shudder at this contact which makes him smile even more.

Fucking body! Why do you have to react?! Argh!

"I see that you are not insensitive to my princess touch.

"Don't touch me, you moron!"

I insulted him

He then puts a finger on my lips and caresses them.

Shit ! Shit ! You must not let him win Emily! Control yourself!

My breathing is faster and I bite my lower lip to calm the desire that rose in me when I hear André growl.

"Stop that.

-What ?"

When I met his gaze, his eyes felt the same as mine. Excitement and desire.

He bites his lower lip and closes his eyes before blowing loudly. He then gets up from the bed and sits on the chair to my left.

"Let's get down to business now." He said to me suddenly with an impassive air that I hated

"Where did you meet that asshole Leo Alvarez? And what happened to get him to marry another woman? You better not lie to me Emily because I'll know the truth anyway. " He told me coldly

I take a deep breath.

"Fine, I'll tell you everything."

-Okay, I'm listening.

-But before I start, you can untie me because it hurts me like hell."

He raises an eyebrow.

"Nope.

-Nope ? OK. I'm not gonna tell you then." I said staring at the ceiling

I hear him blow. He walks over and sits on the bed to untie me. I massage my poor wrists.

"Well you're going to tell me how you met this jerk?!" Aggressively asked the moron in front of me

"If you talk to me that way I think the answer is no.

"And if you keep acting stupid, I'll retie your wrists."

Refusing to be attached again, I decide to tell her about my meeting.

"I met Leo in a nightclub. He was really nice and caring. I quickly fell in love with him. We exchanged our numbers and we never separated again. He then asked me in marriage a few months later. Of course I accepted and I was very happy with him. However, this bitch had to come along and ruin everything!"

I say clenching my fists.

Andrew frowns.

"Who is that ?

-Melissa, his so-called "childhood friend".

I see him clench his fists and clench his jaw.

Don't tell me he knows her!

"Melissa who is now his wife isn't she?" he asked me

I nod my head.

"Then I noticed that Leo was becoming distant. He was rarely home, he came home late. I knew there was something going on between him and Melina but I was so in love with him that I closed the doors. eyes."

I breathe in remembering all those bad memories.

"My life changed on my wedding day. The worst day of my life.

-What happened ?

-Everything was going well until Melina asked me to pick up Paulina, Eric's sister. I looked for it everywhere. I found her dead in my room, bathed in her blood. It was horrible !"

Tears stream down my cheeks as I hold my head in my hands. This image of my beautiful dead sister haunts me every night.

André takes me in his arms, whispering sweet nothings to me. I was so good with him. I felt safe.

"If you don't feel ready to tell me what happened, don't force yourself."

I pull out of his embrace and shake my head negatively.

"No, I'm going to do it anyway."

He nods and listens to me.

"When I found Paulina's body. She was stabbed and I don't know why. I had taken the knife that was near her and unfortunately Melina arrived when she saw Paulina's lifeless body. and the knife I was holding in my hands, she started shouting in the whole house that I killed her My parents, my friends and Leo came into the room and called me names. Apart from my grandmother and my sister, no one would believe me. No one! Not even my parents! I was arrested the same day and I spent five years of my life in prison for a crime that I did not didn't even commit."

I start to cry when André takes me in his arms again to calm me down.

I haven't said it all. I didn't tell the episode where I lost my little angel, because that's what destroyed me the most.

He then lets go of me and scratches his chin thoughtfully.

"What is happening ?" I asked him

"No one believed you? Not even your family?

-My sister and my grandmother were the only people who believed me. My parents didn't listen to me, they were convinced that I had killed him. Why ?

-For nothing. It's just weird don't you think? Your own parents didn't even believe you. There is still something wrong."

Yeah that's weird.

"I don't want to sound indiscreet but, why do you hate Leo so much?

"Because he destroyed my life...and his." he whispered

Hers ?!

"Who are you talking about?

"Nobody!" He replied coldly, moving away from me.

"What's happening to you? Why are you suddenly cold? Are you bipolar or what?!

-It's just that you don't need to know why I hate that bastard so much!

"Calm down Andrew." I said putting a hand on his arm.

I'm surprised to see that he calmed down immediately.

"Excuse me for getting carried away Emily. I just...I hate that bastard.

- André, tell me everything. Why do you hate him tans? I know you don't trust me but...

Alright." He cut me off. "I'll tell you everything."

I nod and listen.

"You need to know that asshole was supposed to marry my sister a year before he met you."

What ?! His sister ?!

"My sister met him at a night club too, they got together quickly and he asked for her hand a few months later after they met. My sister was madly in love with him. She kept talking to me about him so I thought to myself that he must be someone good to make her smile. However, a few days before their wedding, I had noticed that my sister was getting sadder and sadder."

He sighs and takes his head in his hands.

"She told me that Leo was distant with her and all because of his childhood friend. Melina."

That bitch again?! She's everywhere!

"My sister found out that Leo was cheating on her with Melina and she was devastated. I did everything to make her smile but it was impossible. She loved him so much she couldn't imagine her life without him."

A tear runs down her cheek which I wipe away.

André looks me in the eyes and I can read a deep sadness in his eyes.

"My sister took her own life a few days later."

I put my hand over my mouth.

She killed herself! She ended her life because of an asshole and a bitch!

"But the worst thing is that I only found out a few days after he died that this asshole stole my sister's jewelry."

The bastard! I so want to kill him! I will avenge myself ! I will make him pay!

"Andre? Can I ask you a question?

-Yes.

- What was your sister's name?

-Jenna Nelson."

And shit!

That's why his name meant something to me. Nelson.

"What's going on Emily?

-Uh...it's just that...no, don't forget anything.

"If you don't tell me right away, I'll tie you up!" He threatened me.

Argh! This guy pisses me off!

"You piss me off too."

Oh shit ! I thought out loud.

"So are you going to tell me what's bothering you or shall I tie you up?"

I hate him ! I'm sure he's going to freak out!

I take a breath before speaking.

"Bah, on my nineteenth birthday, Leo gave me a necklace, a magnificent necklace, I told myself that it must have cost him a fortune given the number of diamonds there were. A few hours later, an argument broke out between Leo and Melina, and guess the reason for this argument."

I asked Andrew

"Necklace.

-And that's not all, during their argument, I heard Melina say a name and not just any name. It was your sister's name. I think, no actually I'm sure the necklace he gave me belonged to your sister."

I see André clench his fists and clench his jaw.

"THE BASTARD!" he yelled throwing the vase on the wall

Whore ! I knew he was going to freak out. I shouldn't have told him.

"Andre calm down."

He doesn't listen to me and keeps hitting the wall.

But it's not possible ! He is completely sick!

"André! André stop it!" I yelled trying to calm him down.

However, he doesn't calm down, so I do the one thing I never thought I would do in my life to calm a guy down, I kiss him. And to my amazement, he quickly responds to my kiss. As it was starting to get hot, the door opens, revealing Marc who was speechless.

"Were you ever taught to knock on the door before entering?!" Coldly asked André who stared at Marc

"I...uh..I...I heard a noise...so...I...came." The latter stammered, scratching the back of his neck.

I hide my face, which must be red as a tomato, while Marc stared at me.

"It's okay, don't be shy Marc, maybe you want me to offer you a magnifying glass to better watch it.

-Uh...no..I

"Get out of here right now!" Andrew ordered.

Marc apologizes and rushes off while I stare at André.

"But it's not in your head?! Why are you so violent with him?!

-Because he keeps looking at you and nobody looks at what belongs to me!

Nobody !

- What belongs to you?! But damn André, I'm not a toy and if he wants to look at me, let him look at me, we're not a couple!" I shouted challengingly while he gave me a smirk.

I wanted to stay pissed at him but he unsettles me by approaching me slowly with that fucking smile still on his lips. When he comes near me, he leans towards my ear.

"If we're not a couple, then why did you kiss me?" he asked sensually

"I...I..."

Resist! Resist! Resist! Resist! Resist! Resist!

I quickly move away from him so as not to jump on him.

"That was the only thing that came to my mind to calm you down and..."

He suddenly laughs, shaking his head.

"What's the matter?! Why are you laughing?

-You can't lie Emily. Tell the truth, just say you wanted to kiss me naughty go." He told me caressing my cheek

"Anything !"

He laughs again while I

heads for the door but a hand stops me.

"Where are you going to go?

-I have to go home André."

His smile fades and he stares at me hard.

"No! You're not going anywhere!

-I do what I want Andrew! I have to go ! Please, my grandmother must be worried sick."

He looks at me for a long time before nodding his head.

"Okay, I'll take you back."

He tells me to follow him, which I do and on leaving the room, I meet Marc and the one who broke my wrists as well as three other men who don't hesitate to stare at me. Besides, André glares at them and they immediately look away.

***

When we arrive in front of Grandma's villa, I thank André and am about to get out of the car when he grabs my wrist.

"Won't you forget something my love?"

My love ?! I feel my cheeks heat up and I think he noticed since he starts laughing.

"You're so cute blushing.

"I...I have to go."

However, André still holds my wrist.

"You won't leave until you give me what I want.

And what do you want?" I asked annoyed.

"I want a kiss." He replied, staring at me

"OK."

He is surprised and looks at me for a few seconds to see if I was serious.

I approach his face but instead of kissing him, I smack the corner of his lips, which makes him groan.

I smile proudly at having succeeded, but he grabs my arm and pulls me towards him before pressing his lips to mine for a few seconds.

When I separate from him, I quickly get out of the car seeing his eyes filled with desire.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow whether you like it or not." He told me before leaving

Why did he want to see me tomorrow?! He annoys me !

I decide to go inside and when I open the door, I see Elisa staring at me, hands on her hips.

Whore ! She looks pissed off.

"Where were you? With whom? And why?" She asked me

"I was at André's, with André and to fuck." I answered

She rolls her eyes and I realize what I said. And shit!

"WHAT?! YOU FUCKED WITH THE HUNKY?!" She exclaimed with a smile on her face.

"But fuck Elisa shut up! Imagine that grandma heard us!

- Grandma?! But she hasn't come back yet Emily."

I frown.

"What? How come she hasn't come back yet?"

The phone suddenly starts ringing and Elisa answers.

"Hello ?

-....

-What ?!"

I see a few tears rolling down her cheeks.

But what the fuck is going on?!

She hangs up and starts crying as I rush over to her.

"What's going on Elisha?

- Granny.. she's in the hospital. She... She's in a coma."

What ?!
