Chapter 10: I Should've Killed You In The Courtroom

Text settings
      The next day, Rebecca and Jamie invited Letitia and Anthony Rochester, and Frederick Cameron, Raquelle’s grandfather. Also, Victor Johnson, the MacClifes’ good friend, and his wife, Lydia Johnson, joined them. Jamie and Rebecca know the Johnson spouses’ daughter, for whom the man is a godfather. That was the wish of her father, a tall, middle-aged man and a member of the police staff, who constantly wears glasses and has very thick dark hair and hazel eyes, and her mother, a nice adult woman with slightly narrow blue and little lackluster eyes, dark hair that is up into a beautiful hairstyle, slight wrinkles on her face, thin lips, small earrings in her ears, and a nice body for her age that she shows very well.       They are all now sitting in the living room with a cup of tea, watching TV that is working at a low volume, eating something from the plate placed on the coffee table, and talking about what they care about.       “The MacClifes and the Rochesters will unite soon,” Victor says cheerfully with a slight smile, sitting on the sofa and drinking coffee from his cup. “Become one big family.”       “We remember, Mr. Johnson!” Anthony exclaims, drinking a cup of coffee while sitting next to Letitia. “When your child is about to play a wedding, that’s very exciting.”       “But it’s hard to believe it,” Rebecca notices thoughtfully with a shy smile, having her finger wrapped around her cup. “It seems like my child played with toys some time ago but is now going to marry. I mean two children of mine.”       “Oh, I can’t also believe I’m gonna finally see my granddaughter in a wedding dress,” Frederick says cheerfully with a slight smile, leaning back in the sofa and gesticulating actively. “I was holding her in my arms some time ago, but now she is about to become a married woman.”       “That’s right!” Letitia smiles widely. “And now your next mission is raising your grandchildren. I mean, they will be great-grandchildren to you, Mr. Cameron. You can imagine!”       “I’m definitely going to experience that moment. And I really hope my granddaughter will make me happy in the nearest time.”       “Oh, my Rebecca also wants to babysit grandchildren,” Jamie laughs shyly. “She cannot wait for this moment and often asks Terrence and Raquelle to hurry up.”       “If my late wife was alive, she would also always ask them, too. Rosella adored babies and liked families with many children.”       “The important thing is to be able to raise all of them.”       “Yeah,” Rebecca smiles shyly. “And if not for the hard time of Jamie and me, I would’ve given birth to a third child with pleasure. Edward and Terrence would’ve had one more brother. Or sister. I would’ve had three children, just like my parents. They had not only me, but also my older sister and my younger brother.”       “I think your children wouldn’t stop after one child,” Lydia assumes, carefully holding a cup of coffee in her hands. “They will obviously have two.”       “But the more grandchildren, the funnier it would be for us,” Fredrick replies cheerfully with a wide smile.       “Moreover, the guys are lucky to have so many helpers, who would help them raise their children. Grandmothers, grandfathers, servants, and friends…”       “I think it would be great for Edward and Natalia to get experience if Terrence and Raquelle’s child is born earlier,” Victor notices confidently. “If they wished to have their baby, they’d have some experience raising children.”       “My boys would look good as fathers and uncles,” Rebecca says with a slight smile. “Maybe, Terrence and Edward love playing and may act like children, but when they have to, they become very serious and responsible.”       “Raquelle is also going to be a good mother,” Frederick notices and drinks some coffee from the cup that he takes from the table. “My girl has always been very caring and responsible. And she could teach her children the best things.”       “I think Natalia would also be a good mother,” Anthony says confidently. “Of course, I can’t imagine her being the one yet, but she can also take care of people.”       “Yeah, she takes care of Edward so well,” Letitia adds with a slight smile. “She always offers him something to drink or eat when he visits us. And she even cooks something for him. Listens to him closely. Supports him in everything. She helps him keep moving on.”       “My son said,” Jamie nods. “That’s why we’re sure we may have no worries, letting Edward marry Natalia and letting Terrence marry Raquelle. They would live very well with such wonderful girls.”       “Yeah, folks, your children have wonderful taste in partners,” Victor notices confidently and puts his cup of coffee on the table. “Whoever we look at, they all look wonderful.”       “I absolutely agree, Mr. Johnson!” Rebecca exclaims. “The guys chose wonderful girls.”       Everybody smiles shyly at each other, drinking a little bit from their cups or eating something sweet from a small plate.       “You know, my daughter hit the bullseye, too,” Lydia says confidently with a slight smile and puts her cup of tea on the table. “Victor and I really like the man that Diana chose.”       “Yeah, have we told you Diana got recently married?” Victor asks. “I mean… Married officially. But without a celebration.”       “Really?” Jamie wonders. “My goddaughter got married?”       “Why didn’t you tell us?” Rebecca wonders. “We would’ve been happy to attend her wedding.”       “She told us nothing,” Lydia throws her hands up. “She dated a man, got engaged to him, and went home one day and said she got married. She showed a wedding ring and a marriage certificate.”       “Yeah,” Victor smiles shyly. “Lydia and I got mad that our daughter didn’t invite us. But Diana said that she and her husband would have a gorgeous wedding ceremony the next year and invite their close people. Including you two.”       “Yes, Diana often asks about you and wants you to come to her wedding.”       “We will surely come,” Rebecca promises.       “In this case, I must meet Diana’s husband,” Jamie replies confidently. “I must know to whom Diana got married. I’m her godfather.”       “Don’t worry, Jamie,” Lydia laughs quietly. “That man is very good. Our daughter dated him for a long time, and everything was coming to the wedding.”       “Yeah, we should only celebrate the wedding to say it happened,” Victor replies funnily. “Until it happens, I will not recognize their marriage.”       “Give Diana our congratulations and say that Jamie and I will happily come to her wedding,” Rebecca smiles shyly. “And may she get ready that we will visit her and her husband.”       “Sure, Mr. MacClife.”       “So, is that man really so good?” Jamie frowns slightly.       “Very good. Thanks to him, my daughter started to get free and forgot about her weaknesses.”       “Oh, I still remember how many problems we had with Diana,” Lydia catches a wave and drinks some tea from her cup that she takes from the table. “She was such a self-loathing girl. Especially, when she was a teen.”       “That was a very hard time! My daughter was too critical of herself and searching for any shortcomings. Lydia and I always told her she was gorgeous and sympathetic, but Diana did not believe us.”       “Oh, my God, c’mon!” Rebecca wonders. “Diana has always been so sympathetic and cute.”       “You do know girls! They always find shortcomings in themselves. A bad nose, big ears, a body that doesn’t look like a model’s, or something else. And the most important thing is that nobody told Diana those things. She made herself think so and believed it.”       “She especially hated her cheeks,” Lydia confesses. “She always had little puffy ones, but Diana disliked them and wanted to get rid of them. That’s why my daughter thought she was fat and always tried to lose weight. Though, Diana has never been fat. A healthy girl with a good body.”       “Oh, if we call everything she disliked about her, we will stay here until the evening,” Victor waves a hand with a shy laugh.       “Oh, these teenagers…” Frederick sighs tiredly. “No middle ground… Either everything is too bad, or everything is too good. Either a too diffident mouse or an insolent and proud egoist.”       “Thank God, that time stayed in the past,” Lydia says with relief. “Somehow, Diana met a good guy, who taught her to love herself and feel irresistible. Not at once, of course, but thanks to him, she started to change slowly.”       “Oh, yeah, she started to watch herself very closely and even lost some weight,” Victor smiles shyly. “She could be standing in front of the mirror for hours, dressing up, and doing makeup and hair… And when that man told her compliments and gave her some gifts, her eyes were full of a bright gloss.”       “That’s why we accepted that man as her husband and didn’t start a scandal because of her secret registration of the marriage.”       “Oh, the case of my Natalia was the same,” Letitia waves a hand. “Somehow, she was also searching for shortcomings and thought she wasn’t beautiful for some time. It happened when my daughter was a teenager.”       “Come on, Mrs. Rochester!” Jamie pronounces amazingly. “How such a beautiful girl could think so!”       “That’s true, Mr. MacClife,” Anthony shrugs. “Though, girls were always jealous of her beauty. You know that Natalia has gorgeous hair. Healthy, glossy, thick… Many of them wanted the same!”       “And when Natalia stood by Raquelle, who, as you know, was bullied by everybody, the one to start the bullying almost destroyed my daughter’s hair,” Letitia confesses. “She grabbed scissors and wanted to cut her hair. But that’s good one of the teachers saw it, and Natalia didn’t hide it and told Anthony and me everything.”       “Yeah, sometimes children may be too cruel…” Frederick shakes his head slightly.       “But thank God, that time is gone, and my daughter blossomed much more,” Anthony says with a slight smile. “Her face became more mature. She’s no longer a little girl but an adult, young lady.”       “And thanks to Edward, she became more confident,” Letitia adds. “When my daughter says she dislikes something, he immediately lets her know she’s gorgeous. And he always proves it, not just talks to the wind unlike some of her previous boyfriends.”       “I can say the same about Terrence and Raquelle…” Frederick says confidently. “That guy got her much freer and literally bans her from doubting herself.”       “He does say that Terrence MacClife gets all the best,” Jamie says, drinking some coffee. “So, my son gets what he wants.”       “Oh, yeah, I’ve never met a more confident guy. It’s not amazing that my granddaughter feels like a queen next to him. Confidence is an infection.”       “Let’s just confess that these beauties chose the decent young men,” Rebecca adds confidently. “And make sure that girls and boys get better when they meet the right person.”       “Edward’s case proves it,” Anthony says confidently. “When I saw him for the first time, he was too shy and insecure… He always spoke quietly, with a scare in his eyes. As if he was tried to kill.”       “That’s true,” Jamie agrees. “My brother Michael did his best for that somehow. He humiliated the poor guy so much that he thought he was a worthless loser.”       “But now your son has grown up a lot and turned into a confident man. He does rock on the stage with a band! And how he shows himself!”       “Edward did a good job,” Frederick smiles slightly. “The guy believed in him and started to get better. Now nobody will dare to say he’s a little boy that needs a mother.”       “Say, ‘thank you’ to Natalia,” Victor says confidently. “That girl makes him confident. Edward started to change under her influence. And I personally see great progress over the past few months. And after the end of the trial of Michael and his gang, he became more confident.”       “They are a wonderful couple,” Lydia says confidently with a slight smile. “I adore them. I always want to smile when looking at them. And I am very happy Edward and Natalia are going to get married soon.”       “Trust me, Mrs. Johnson, we are happy not less than you are,” Letitia says confidently. “I will be thrilled to marry my daughter to such a wonderful guy, with whom she will be in trustful hands.”       “And my son will be very happy with that girl,” Rebecca says with a slight smile. “Jamie and I fully approve of Edward’s choice and will happily accept Natalia into our family. As well as Raquelle.”       “It’s nice to know the two sons of yours have found their happiness,” Victor notices. “Right, Rebecca, Jamie?”       “Obviously, Victor!” Jamie exclaims, hugging Rebecca around the shoulders. “Knowing that your children are happy and lack nothing is the best feeling in the world.”       “I’m literally jumping with happiness that my granddaughter will get married soon,” Frederick confesses with a wide smile.       “I’m madly happy I will be a guest at the wedding of Edward and Natalia and Terrence and Raquelle. I will not miss such an important event. I shall delay my business to share my happiness with my children…”       “By the way, are the young people getting ready for the wedding?” Lydia asks. “Dresses, suits, a wedding place…”       “They’re just currently talking about all possible variants,” Letitia replies thoughtfully.       “But Natalia has already drawn up a few sketches of the dress that she would like to put on,” Anthony adds.       “Can Natalia draw?” Victor rounds his eyes.       “Sure! She draws very well!”       “Yes, Natalia loves doing that in her free time,” Letitia replies amicably. “Not only. My daughter also knows fashion very well. Much better than her mother. She always knows what’s trending now.”       “I personally love your style, Mrs. Rochester,” Lydia says confidently with admiration in her eyes. “You’re so beautiful, elegant, stylish…”       “Thanks, Mrs. Johnson. But Natalia and I have different opinions about some things. I try to dress up stylishly but remember that I’m no longer twenty. That I’m not able to wear shirts with an open stomach, mini skirts or shorts. But my daughter does love showing her body. She has especially loved it since Edward came into her life.”       “Your daughter just uses secrets of seducing,” Jamie laughs shyly. “So, my son can’t resist.”       “Let her dress while she’s young,” Lydia smiles shyly. “A girl must wear beautiful clothes that show all of her dignity. She’ll have time to put on oversize clothes and give a damn about her appearance.”       “No, my dear, that girl will never give a damn about her,” Anthony replies confidently. “Natalia has always given much attention to self-care. Even after becoming a married woman and giving birth to children, she will find time for her.”       “Listen, why does Natalia hide that she can draw?” Jamie frowns slightly and puts his cup of coffee on the table. “Somehow, Edward saw her drawings that he really liked, and she said they were terrible. I can say nothing because I’ve never seen them, but he’s delighted by her works.”       “If she tells you the same, don’t believe her,” Anthony replies confidently. “My daughter will lie because she draws amazingly. Letitia and I noticed it when Natalia gave us her drawings when she was a kid. If you visited us, we’d show you some of the best ones.”       “Interesting…” Rebecca pronounces thoughtfully. “Everybody says she has a talent for drawing, but the girl doesn’t believe it.”       “I think she’s just shy. Afraid of too several criticisms. You know that Natalia is very sensitive and vulnerable. Though, there’s no meaning to criticize her work because they’re excellent.”       “Or the fashion is closer to her, and she thinks she’s a professional at it,” Letitia assumes. “Drawing is just her way to relax and creates what she wants on a piece of paper.”       “Listen, ladies and gentlemen, our children are so creative,” Rebecca notices cheerfully with a slight smile. “Terrence and Edward sing and play guitar, and Natalia draws and knows everything about fashion…”       “That’s right,” Jamie catches a wave. “Somehow, I also had a hobby of playing guitar but forgot it later and got interested in other things.”       “And Raquelle wanted to become a writer,” Frederick confesses. “When she was a kid, she had a wonderful talent for writing.”       “Really?” Lydia wonders truly.       “My granddaughter has always loved reading very much. She has read lots of books in her entire life. Alicia and I didn’t even have to get her interested in what was right for us. Raquelle took a book and read it with interest. She re-reads some of them. And she still reads something new. Terrence says he often sees her reading something when he goes home.”       “I think everything is not lost,” Victor replies thoughtfully. “If Raquelle wanted, she could write a book. She’s popular and has many fans, who would be happy to buy her works and help her promote them. That girl has wonderful speech and a good vocabulary. I think her way of telling a story would be good for readers.”       “Maybe, she would love to write something someday. But she’s now focused only on her modeling career.”       Silence settles in the air for some time, during which everybody drinks tea or coffee or eats something. And then Victor takes a packet of cigarettes and a lighter and looks at everybody, asking:       “Listen, ladies and gentlemen, wouldn’t you mind if I smoked right here? Or should I better go outside?”       “No, no, smoke,” Rebecca shrugs. “The ashtray is in front of you.”       After the others show their agreement, Victor quietly takes a cigarette, burns it with a lighter, and gets some smoke in, the smell of which starts slowly spreading in the living room.       “By the way, what about Edward and Terrence’s band?” Victor asks. “They say they are going to release the first album.”       “Yeah, it is, but they got some problems again,” Jamie replies.       “Hey, yeah!” Frederick exclaims, putting his cup of coffee on the table. “A newspaper or a show announced that their bassist, Daniel, was hit by a car… Their representatives spread the piece of news to the fans.”       “That’s true,” Jamie nods confidently. “Daniel has been diagnosed with a concussion and partial amnesia.”       “Oh, gosh…” Lydia says with horror in her eyes, closing her mouth with a hand.       “The girls told us about it when Natalia brought Helene and Raquelle to our home,” Letitia says.       “The most interesting thing in this case is that he was found nobody knows where,” Rebecca notices and takes a sip of coffee from her cup. “The one to blame ran away. And Peter, the band’s drummer, and Helene, his girlfriend, found Daniel and the ring and the knife next to him.”       “Really?” Victor gets interested and shakes some ashes into the ashtray. “Tell me more about that story, please.”       “The bleeding Daniel was found unconscious in the middle of the desert road,” Jamie says. “He remembers nothing and doesn’t know what happened to him. And the dog of Peter’s girlfriend found the ring and the knife that Rebecca told you about. The guys are trying to help him, but no results yet. Not saying that he has recalled Peter’s suicide attempt.”       “Hm, ring and knife…” Victor, frowning slightly, scratches his beard. “And whose are those things?”       “Not Daniel’s, obviously,” Rebecca replies confidently. “And moreover, Terrence and Edward said there was someone’s blood on the knife.”       “Blood?”       “Daniel’s hand was kind of cut,” Anthony says thoughtfully. “So… I think that’s his blood.”       “Can I look at the ring and the knife?” Victor frowns much stronger.       “Rebecca and I suggested Edward and Terrence show Daniel those things and talk to you,” Jamie replies confidently. “The guys said Peter has those things.”       “I would love to look at those things. Who knows, maybe, they belong to someone, who is featured in one of the police cases.”       “Alright, Mr. Johnson, we will tell the guys you want to look at those things,” Rebecca promises. “And I must confess that Jamie and I also think the knife and the ring might help them in this case.”       “Ah, yeah, I almost forgot to say!” Jamie remembers. “The guys said Daniel exactly knows someone threatened him.”       “Threatened?” Victor wonders.       “Yes. And Daniel’s absolutely sure about it. He doesn’t know who, but says someone wanted him to die.”       “Do you want to say someone threatened him and then hit him with a car?” Lydia asks.       “Exactly!” Rebecca exclaims. “But if someone really threatened him, beat him, and hit him with a car, the question is, to whom those things belong. At least, we’re sure that the knife doesn’t belong to Daniel. But there is the ring.”       “Which type is it? For girls or men?”       “For men, I guess,” Letitia frowns slightly. “The girls said it doesn’t belong to Daniel, and he doesn’t wear rings.”       “What if one thing belongs to the one to threaten him, and someone to hit him owns another?” Victor assumes after getting smoke in one time.       “And both left the crime scene?” Rebecca adds.       “Maybe.”       “So, did Daniel have problems that nobody knew about?” Fredrick wonders.       “Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, I believe there is a crime in this case,” Victor nods, holding a half-smoked cigarette with three fingers. “I guess the attack was well planned.”       “Maybe, that guy just saw something bad, and someone decided to get him out of the way, so the police or someone else didn’t know it?” Lydia assumes, folding her hands in front of herself.       “I don’t know, I don’t…” Anthony exhales slowly. “But the story is tangled enough.”       “Listen, we’ve gotta try to find out everything,” Victor replies confidently. “And first, I want to talk to all the four guys and find out everything they know about that case.”       “You can ask Peter, Terrence, and Edward, but Daniel will tell you nothing,” Fredrick replies confidently. “He remembers nothing.”       “Well, maybe, he would recall something else. That guy will not have amnesia forever… And if he’s sure he was attacked, Daniel might probably tell us a little bit more.”       “We think it would be right,” Rebecca nods and drinks some coffee from her cup.       “Maybe, someday, Daniel will remember everything and refuse to report to the police, but I want to find out everything earlier to know what I could do. I will look at the knife and the ring and examine the archives of the cases and those that are being investigated now. Maybe, someone was caught on something.”       “Yes, yes, we will tell the guys you want to meet them,” Jamie promises.       “Then ask the girls, as well,” Letitia advises confidently. “What if the unexpected disappearance of Daniel’s girlfriend might also be a threat to Anna.”       “Anna disappeared?” Victor frowns strongly.       “She did,” Anthony throws his hands up. “She’s been ignoring the girls and the men and hasn’t been answering their calls and messages for more than one week. She left Daniel’s house shortly after he ended up in the hospital.”       “God…” Frederick pronounces with horror in his eyes. “But why? What could happen? Anna loved that guy so much!”       “Oh, Mr. Cameron, this story is much more tangled,” Rebecca replies tiredly. “For the first two days, Anna visited Daniel at the hospital along with the others, even if she didn’t talk to him. But nobody has seen her since then. She was kind of swallowed by the ground.”       “Did she leave the guy when he needed her so badly?”       “Sort of,” Letitia shrugs. “But we don’t understand the reasons for that. And we think Anna did a bad thing if she decided to leave just because of Daniel’s amnesia.”       “But on the other hand, anything could happen,” Jamie notices. “Maybe, they fought and told nobody about it. Maybe, those two were close to a breakup for a long time. We don’t know what was happening at their home.”       “What if the case of that guy has to do with the girl’s disappearance?” Lydia frowns, putting her finger on her lip. “If Daniel really got into something and someone knows he has a girlfriend, they decided to put her in danger.”       “I don’t know, Lydia, I don’t know…” Victor replies thoughtfully and puts the piece of cigarette in the ashtray placed in front of him. “But that’s possible… We could explain the sudden disappearance of that girl.”       “I don’t wanna believe that the girl is bad,” Frederick says with sadness in his eyes. “I’ve known Anna since she was a kid. And I’ve always liked that girl. She’s so sweet, kind, educated, tender…”       “Yeah… I believe this case might be very tangled. And it would be very hard to catch the criminals because, as I understand, there are no witnesses to that event.”       “Who knows…” Jamie shrugs. “But we know that when Daniel was found, there was nobody.”       “Or there was, but he had time to run away.”       “Listen, I think many things would get clear if the guys showed the knife and the ring to Victor,” Lydia replies confidently. “What if someone owns those things but was featured in a case somehow. Maybe, they’ll be lucky?”       “Don’t worry, Mrs. Johnson, Jamie, Mr. and Mrs. Rochester, and I will tell the girls and the men that your husband wants to talk to them,” Rebecca replies confidently.       “Do it as soon as possible,” Victor advises. “Who knows what’s going to happen later. If Daniel really ran into something serious, and Anna got in trouble because of him, danger might threaten her. And we would have to do our best to find her immediately.”       “Oh, my God…” Frederick sighs heavily. “How it’s hard…”       Jamie, Rebecca, Letitia, Lydia, and Anthony nod and say nothing for a few seconds later. Meanwhile, the criminal news issue is being translated on a TV working quietly, but nobody cared about it before. But at some moment, they hear some words from the host, who starts to speak confidently, while a red line with the signature “Breaking News” is shown:       “Attention, breaking news! We received the information that a dangerous criminal named Eugene Wainwright ran away from one of the jails in New York City on June, 30th.”       Eugene Wainwright’s name immediately makes everybody open their mouths and their eyes that they set on a TV.       “What?” Letitia gets horrified. “Eugene Wainwright?”       “My gosh…” Lydia pronounces with horror in her eyes. “Is that the one, who started a scandal in the courtroom after the judge announced the sentence for the charge of a rape attempt? The one, who wounded Edward at the courtroom?”       “Yeah, that’s him…” Victor nods.       The host keeps broadcasting, while everybody sees a photo of a man with greasy red hair and frightening eyes of an unnaturally bright green color, who makes them feel goosebumps on their backs:       “A few months ago, he was blamed for complicity in the crimes that he committed with the other criminal, Michael MacClife, who is now serving his life sentence under a maximum-security regime. Moreover, Wainwright was also sentenced for the rape attempt on a girl named Natalia Rochester, who is well known as the fiancée of Edward MacClife, a guitarist of the rock band ‘Against The System’.”       “Damn, no way…” Jamie shakes his head.       “That bastard ran away?” Anthony gets horrified. “That asshole is free?”       “Quiet, quiet, folks,” Frederick says quietly. “Let’s listen.”       “Make the volume louder, someone,” Victor says. “I hear nothing.”       Everybody falls into silence and keeps listening to the reportage with dumbfounded eyes after Rebecca takes the remote control placed near her on the sofa and makes the volume louder.       “Wainwright deceived the prison officers. There is information that he stole a weapon from one of them and wounded someone, who tried to hold him. Fortunately, nothing threatens the life of the victim, and he is going to leave the hospital soon. The police had been informed about the escape of Eugene Wainwright and immediately started to search for him. But at the moment, the criminal has not been caught yet. The last information that they got was that someone saw a man similar to Eugene somewhere in the city.”       Nobody says a word: the women get sharply white and shake their heads and close their mouths with their hands with tears in wet eyes, and the men frown, clench their hands into fists, and get enraged at the thought that such a horrible criminal ran away from prison.       “The request to all people living in New York: take a look at the photo that you see on your screen. If someone sees a tall man with bright green eyes, thick red hair, and a scar on half of his face wearing a prison robe, or you know where this person might be, please, call the police and go to any police station. You will be rewarded for any information about Eugene Wainwright. And the police in New York are warning: be careful on the streets and accompany girls and women. This person has mental disabilities and might try to rape any girl. Young girls must be especially careful…”       Although the reportage about Eugene’s escape continues, everybody says nothing, being deeply shocked.       “I can’t believe it…” Rebecca pronounces in a little shaking voice with widely open eyes and sniffs quietly. “That sick scumbag is free…”       “He will tear Edward apart,” Jamie says with a heavy breath. “If they meet somewhere, that man will kill my son with no regret. And Edward will get enraged if he knows about the escape of Natalia’s offender. Remember how they fought in the courtroom after the announcement of the sentence for the charge of the rape attempt. And I still remember how he shoot Edward after that guys wanted to protect Natalia. How he said everything was okay but actually felt terribly bad.”       “As well as Natalia…” Letitia pronounces in a shaking voice with tears in her wet eyes. “He will find my daughter… And if he doesn’t try to rape her, he will kill her. I shall lose Natalia…”       “No, no, that beast will not do anything for her,” Anthony says confidently, hugging Letitia around the shoulders tightly. “Edward will tear him apart if he dares to come to her. We all remember how furious he became when that bastard was feeling my daughter up before his eyes.”       “I guess that man is going to be much angrier,” Lydia assumes. “And his main goal will be Edward and Natalia. He is mad that the guy covered that girl with himself and got a light wound.”       “No, no, I don’t want him to do anything to my daughter,” Letitia makes a quiet sob, shaking her head. “I don’t want… I will not bear it.”       “Calm down, honey, it’s gonna be okay,” Anthony calms down softly, caressing Letitia’s head.       “And my son…” Rebecca sniffs quietly, while Jamie is embracing her. “That scumbag hates Edward literally much more than Michael. He will definitely kill him. My son will not be able to fight. He’s too dangerous.”       “I’m afraid not only Natalia and Edward are in danger, but also her friends,” Victor assumes thoughtfully. “Remember how that crazy man looked at them and tried to feel up when running from the policemen.”       “No, no, that bastard will not hurt my granddaughter,” Frederick replies confidently. “I shall cut his throat if I know he gets closer to Raquelle.”       “I will kill him if he dares to come to my daughter,” Anthony says coldly. “I will beat that bastard’s face with great pleasure. The last time, I did it only two times, sadly.”       “And he will not dare to hurt my sons – he will have to deal with me,” Jamie throws gloomily. “Somehow, I beat Michael’s face for daring to attempt on Edward and Terrence. And I will do the same to that scumbag, Wainwright if at least one hair falls off the heads of my children.”       “Why, God?” Letitia makes a quiet sob. “Why? We thought Wainwright was in prison and getting therapy! But he ran away! Ran away to destroy Natalia! To kill my only daughter!”       “The escape of this bastard will give us another problem,” Anthony moans tiredly. “Oh, shit… When we get one problem, we get a few more.”       “By the way, it’s weird that they just announced his escape, when it’s been about three weeks,” Lydia notices. “Did the police try to hide it?”       “Mr. Johnson, did you know it?” Frederick frowns slightly, moving his eyes to Victor. “You knew Eugene Wainwright was hiding from the police for three weeks?”       “I swear, folks, I knew nothing!” Victor replies confidently. “It happened during my vacation! I was going to go to work on Monday. I decided to have a rest for two weeks and gave all my cases to my helpers. I was told nothing about the escape of that man.”       “Could the police hide his escape from everyone?” Jamie frowns slightly.       “I don’t exclude it. Maybe, they didn’t wait to scare anyone, knowing he is crazy. Maybe, they thought they’d catch him quickly. But it seems like they had no choice. Moreover, the host said someone saw the one to look like him.”       “My gosh…” Lydia sighs heavily.       “Oh, damn…” Victor runs his hands over his face. “I only needed to take time off, so nobody knew what started to happen in the police. What kind of disorder is going on there when I am not there? Did they forget how to work? They do want me to work and closely watch everything. Literally put their noses in something like kittens in a litter box!”       “And what do we do?” Letitia sniffs quietly. “We must protect the girls and the men. Or Wainwright will kill all of them.”       “We must immediately tell the guys about Wainwright’s escape,” Rebecca says quietly, wiping tears from her eyes. “They must not leave the girls alone. Or someone might suffer because of that stinker.”       “I will break his neck if he dares to come to my Natalia,” Anthony says coldly, clenching his hands into fists. “He almost killed my daughter, and she almost lost her beloved man, who considered her a whore because of his fucking fault.”       “Alright, let’s do something…” Victor says confidently and confidently. “I will go to the station now and deal with those stupid people, who cannot work without the help of others. And you immediately tell the men they must not let the girls walk alone, especially in desert places.”       “Surely, Mr. Johnson!” Frederick exclaims. “We will immediately contact the guys.”       “If I know something, I will call you.”       “Tell us everything at any time,” Jamie says confidently. “My phone is always with me.”       “Alright, I got it.”       Victor, says goodbye to Lydia by kissing her on the cheek, to Rebecca and Letitia by touching their shoulders, and to Anthony, Jamie, and Frederick with a handshake. Then the man quickly drinks coffee, takes his phone and keys from the car, and leaves the house. Rebecca closes the door after him and returns to the others.       “Oh, God, the young people got one more problem,” Frederick says thoughtfully, scratching his chin. “They’re trying to help their friend and find out where his girlfriend disappeared. But now they will also have to defend the girls from that sick criminal.”       “Yeah, it seems like they will forget about the wedding of Edward and Natalia and Terrence and Raquelle,” Jamie replies thoughtfully.       “Oh, Mr. MacClife, what kind of wedding…” Letitia moans tiredly. “Life of my daughter is in danger. Because of that scumbag, who is the reason why Anthony and I almost lost Natalia. That sick one could’ve done anything to her if everything had been otherwise. And he’s now walking free as if nothing happened.”       “He’s going to be furious this time,” Anthony adds thoughtfully. “Until he kills my daughter and her fiancé, that bastard will not calm down.”       “If only…” Rebecca pronounces quietly. “Nobody knows what that stinker has in his mind, and who he will wish to harm this time. Until the police find him, he will do lots of things, for which he might get a longer sentence.”       “Don’t worry, Mrs. MacClife, Mrs. Rochester, Mr. MacClife, Mr. Rochester,” Lydia says softly. “Your children will be fine. Victor will do his best to find that person. The police will be looking for him much harder and control him much more carefully.”       “I’m surprised that he actually ran away from the place that was kept under good protection,” Frederick wonders. “Ran away from a prison hospital…”       “I don’t exclude that he planned his escape,” Jamie shrugs. “And even had an agreement with someone.”       “Oh, now we’ve gotta worry about what he’ll love to do,” Anthony moans tiredly, running his hands over his face. “If he wants to bring my daughter to the edge again. Until a wish to kill herself.”       “And the terrible thing is that even if Edward is protecting Natalia, he might not be able to do it alone,” Rebecca notices with anxiety. “Wainwright could get him exhausted, so that he just wastes his strength.”       “God shall not let, Mrs. MacClife!” Frederick exclaims. “If Natalia is near Wainwright, and Edward is not able to help her, she will be dead. We don’t want that sweet girl to suffer because of that sick stinker.”       “Michael MacClife number two,” Jamie throws gloomily. “My brother was torturing my whole family and me, and now Wainwright is going to torture Natalia and Edward. And maybe, he will even deal with Raquelle and Terrence, Anna, Helene… A danger is threatening all of them!”       “We know, Mr. MacClife, we know…” Lydia replies with sadness in her eyes. “Michael made your family suffer a lot. Because of jealousy for your success.”       “Nevertheless, I would like to believe everything will be alright, and that bastard will be caught very soon,” Rebecca expresses hope. “Before he finds my sons and their girls.”       While Rebecca and Letitia are crying quietly and shaking from the thought that something might happen to their children, Jamie and Anthony embrace their wives tightly and try to calm them down, even if they are terribly worried and afraid to imagine what the escape of such a dangerous man like Eugene Wainwright might lead to.       

***

      It’s about three in the afternoon. Terrence and Raquelle are spending time together with pleasure. As it’s very hot today, it’s time to find a swimming outfit, swim in the cold water, and drink something fresh. That’s what the lovers did. Raquelle is comfortably sitting in a chaise lounge with a cold drink in her hands, sometimes fixing her transparent cape on her shoulders, her beautiful light pink hat, and her sunglasses, and watches Terrence swimming from one edge of the pool to another. He often comes down and comes up out of the water, or he actually leaves the pool and jumps in it so that splashes get on everything around.       Raquelle smiles not only because Terrence looks like a happy and careless baby, swimming in the pool in different ways and showing how he can hold his breath for a long time. The girl also admires his wet black hair, which lost its volume, and drops of water on his masculine, gorgeous body without a hint of fat, which she admires like it's the first time. His tall height, incredible and pumped full arms, perfect six-pack, slim figure, gorgeous legs… Everything about him seems perfect, attractive, and sexual… And the way he alluringly fixes his hair or gets out of the pool… How perfect that man is when doing it with his eyes down… A slight shake of his head makes her heart stop, and the proud look of his piercing blue eyes says that this man is more than confident and knows that everything is perfect about him.       Looking at Terrence, Raquelle understands how much she wants to touch every single part of his gorgeous body, kiss it, and caress it… The girl kind of falls in love with him more and more and cannot even believe she got such a wonderful man. She feels that her heart starts beating faster when she looks at the half-naked man. Drops of water on his body look incredibly sexual. Maybe, he looks irresistible and attractive in clothes, but now, when he is only wearing a dark blue knee-length bathing suit, this brunet looks much more attractive. There is a wish to smooth his incredible body with tender kisses and feel pride for getting such an amazing man, who can kill her with his stunning white smile.       This is what Raquelle thinks about while she drinks something slowly from her glass through a straw. And when Terrence throws a charming and stunning smile at her, the girl is ready to melt right here, under the shoots of the hot sun. She is absolutely ready to obey this man. He is a lord to her. The lord of the heart that he owns. At first, the man stole it thanks to his gorgeous body or unforgettable kisses. But now he surrounds her with care, gives her much more confidence, and always knows how to elevate her mood. Despite everything that happened between them, the girl does not regret deciding to marry him. Yes, it’s very hard for them to be together at times, but they cannot imagine their lives without each other.       Raquelle gets so busy watching Terrence swimming in the pool that she does not notice how she literally gets lost in her fantasies, biting her lip, smiling slyly, and imagining what she would like to do to him before agreeing to give herself to him and become a good girl. Terrence literally provokes the girl by moving his body sexually and literally enjoying himself. And he feels madly proud that he got a girl that many men wanted. Who became the first one, who did not bend backward like a cat at their first meeting and did not behave the way he expected.       And at some moment, Terrence, who gets out of the pool, notices it and smiles slyly. He bites his lip slightly, fixes his hair to drive Raquelle much crazier, and decides to watch the girl that is wearing such a sexual red bikini and drinking a drink from her glass too tantalizingly. How fabulous and attractive the bends of her body are! There is a wish to caress and tenderly kiss every part of it… Her gorgeous and slim figure… A swan’s graceful neck… Her long and slender legs… Although her eyes are now covered with sunglasses, the man knows how expressive and deep they are. And the half-wet, wavy hair is beautifully down from her shoulders. The edges of them stick to the small breasts that seem bigger thanks to the bra with a push-up effect… She already wakes up a fire and all the wildest and most passionate wishes inside him. Especially now, when this beauty is wearing a bright red bikini…       It took some time for Terrence to learn not only to admire Raquelle’s body and consider her a sexual object. Now, he also highly appreciates her care, loyalty, and ability to make him smile and support him. Next to her, he feels relaxed and forgets about any problems. One tender gaze of hers… One nice word of hers… One cute kiss on his cheek of hers… All of that is the reason why something warm is spreading all over his body, and a wish to keep taking care of this girl and keeping her safe like a brilliant is getting much stronger.       Terrence does not notice how he gets lost in time for some time, dreaming of his sexual fantasies about Raquelle, whom he wants to possess. He wants to caress her gorgeous body with both hands and lips and kiss all the parts of it. It always gets him nicely excited and makes his heart beat faster… Her smell literally hypnotizes him and makes him obey the owner of it, resisting who is impossible. However, some time later, Terrence comes back to reality, still being wet after swimming in the pool. The man shakes his head, runs his hands over his face, and exhales sharply. Then he decides to use the moment when Raquelle puts the glass with a drink on the table standing next to her and leans back in the chair with closed eyes, letting herself relax under the shoots of the sun getting on many parts of her body.       Terrence comes quietly to Raquelle from behind with a sly smile and looks at her for two seconds, unconsciously glancing at her breasts raised with a bra, her perfectly flat belly, and her long, thin legs. It makes the man swallow up nervously and feel that his heart starts beating faster, and his imagination gets much wilder and makes him do something. He quickly and confidently takes the hat and the glass off Raquelle, leans her head back, raises it by the chin, and sharply kisses her on the lips, tenderly holding her by the throat, so that he feels her pulse. The girl shakes up in surprise and moans quietly but relaxes fully the next second under the influence of the warmth that her body gets obsessed with. A few seconds later, the man steps back from the girl slowly and smiles slyly, while she looks at him up from the down.       “Terrence, you scared me!” Raquelle exclaims. “Warn me when you come up to me!”       “You just looked at me so closely that you noticed nothing,” Terrence replies with a sly smile.       “Ha, do you think I was watching you?”       “Who else!”       “Don’t dream up, MacClife.” Raquelle stands up from the chair lounge and comes to Terrence very closely, rolling her eyes dreamily. “I don’t wanna watch you!”       “You think I didn’t notice you watching me swim in the pool like spell bounded?” Terrence asks in a low voice, slowly running his hand over Raquelle’s cheek.       “Really?” Raquelle smiles innocently, arching her eyebrows.       “Yes, babe, you were literally eating me with your eyes. And I got kinda hot under that view. Super hot…”       “M-m-m, it seems like you’re starting to think there is nobody more irresistible than you.”       “That’s not true?” Terrence raises his head proudly with a wide smile. “How could a girl resist this beauty? Nobody has been able to do it! Of course, you tried to do it somehow, but alas. Your knickers got wet from just one look at you.”       “Well, something is always strong in your underwear when you look at your reflection in the mirror.”       “Not as strong as it is at the sight of yours.”       “Come on!”       “M-m-m, I feel someone wants to make me nervous and run again.”       “Ha!” Raquelle chuckles nervously. “As if I need you! Come on!”       When Raquelle wants to turn around with her head proudly raised, Terrence sharply presses her to himself by the waist with one hand.       “Okay,” Terrence pronounces in a low, nice voice. “If you wanna play, I’m accepting your challenge. Though, you already know you’d lose.”       “Calm down, pretty boy, your tricks wouldn’t work on me,” Raquelle says confidently with a sly smile, looking into Terrence’s eyes.       “Seriously?” Terrence presses Raquelle closer to himself so that their faces are at a very short distance and smiles slyly when he understands that she gets tense and literally stops breathing after she feels the warmth of his wet body. “But your body says different things. It’s ready to bend backward along with my music.”       “If I wanted, I would have taken your gorgeous body under control a long time ago. And do anything I would love.”       “So, baby, do ya like my body?” Terrence asks with a smug smile and breathes on the curve of Raquelle’s neck with a hot breath, making her get goosebumps on her whole body and feel that her heart stops. “Yeah, I know… Nobody has been able to resist this masterpiece.”       “Hard to deny it…” Raquelle pronounces quietly with closed eyes and smiles shyly. “You’re so incredible…”       “I do know you like it,” Terrence slowly runs his open mouth over the curve of Raquelle’s neck.       “Do you know it’s hard for me to hold myself down when you’re so close to me?” Raquelle asks with a slight smile and a pink blush on her face. “Wet and half-naked…”       “You know, it’s also hard for me to resist when watching the girl wearing such a sexy bikini and drinking a drink so tantalizingly.” Terrence runs the tip of his nose over Raquelle’s neck and moves it to her cheek. “Moreover, I do adore you wearing something red. This color drives me crazy… When you wear red clothes…”       “Hold yourself down, MacClife.” Raquelle slowly steps back from Terrence with a sly smile, raising her head proudly. “Don’t get excited…”       “You’re crazy if you’re saying it seriously,” Terrence takes the glass, from which Raquelle was drinking, from the table, drinks a little, and smiles slightly. “M-m-m, delicious. That’s what we need in such hot weather.”       “Listen, maybe, you take a towel and dry yourself off?” Raquelle suggests with a sly smile, putting her hands on her thin waist. “And dress up, at last! Stop walking here half-naked!”       “Yeah? And what would happen if I continued to be like this?” Terrence runs his hands over his wet hair. “Naked and incredible…”       “You will regret it!”       “And how?” Terrence puts the glass on the table, comes to Raquelle very closely, and runs his hands through her hair at the roots, feeling her hot and little heavy breath. “If you wanna take off my bathing suit, I won’t mind it. I love walking without clothes…”       “Oh, yeah, pervert, you’re ready to go naked even in public,” Raquelle laughs shyly. “Seriously! If someone steals your clothes and underwear, you’ll feel good and walk outside proudly. Until the first policeman.”       “How could I hide this beauty!” Terrence says with a sly smile and proudly runs his hands over his stomach, on which a tough six-pack is seen. “Look, dolly, how sexy and attractive I am! What kind of incredible abs I have! People fall in love with me only after one look.”       “Oh, damn, who I’m gonna marry,” Raquelle glances aside.       “You’re gonna marry the most handsome man in the world,” Terrence slightly pulls up his swimming suit. “It’s confirmed by the title given to me by the famous magazine. And my fans.”       “Yeah, MacClife, you’re incorrigible…” Raquelle shakes her head with a shy smile.       “C’mon, cutie, stop talking. Better show me everything you can.” Terrence slowly runs his lips over Raquelle’s forehead and cheeks, while her abdomen gets tense. “I want you…”       “You wanted to say, ‘show me what I’ll make you show’?”       “I make nobody. Because I know you will make me happy and help me relax with pleasure.”       “You’re too confident,” Raquelle notices, putting her arms around Terrence’s neck and looking into his eyes confidently. “You got used to getting everything easily.”       “I’m used to getting what I want.”       “Yeah?” Raquelle brings her face much closer to Terrence’s one and gives him a tender kiss on the lips. “So, I shall do my best for you, asshole, to work too hard.”       Raquelle gives Terrence a more continuous kiss on the lips, running her hands through his wet hair and making a couple of sensual moans. Maybe, the girl would get control of the situation, but the man steps back softly with a sly smile and puts two fingers on her soft, well-puffy lips, while she is breathing a little heavily.       “S-h-h, don’t rush, sweetheart, don’t rush,” Terrence says in a low voice. “I know you wanna get control of me, but it’s not time now.”       “I might not want it later,” Raquelle replies confidently, setting her eyes into Terrence’s eyes.       “You’d have no choice!” Terrence confidently grabs Raquelle by the waist with both hands. “I only need to call you with a finger for you to look into my eyes like a loyal dog.”       “You’ll become my slave at your wish when I call you.”       “Let’s see who’s gonna win.”       Terrence tenderly kisses Raquelle on the cheek and touches her neck and collarbones with his lips, pressing her closer to himself. And then he leaves a kiss on every single part of a gorgeous lady’s face.       “Oh, God…” Raquelle pronounces quietly, while she tenses all her muscles and feels a fast heartbeat with a feeling of the shake on her skin.       “This is just the beginning, babe,” Terrence replies with a smug smile, while his hands confidently slide over Raquelle’s naked back, and his lips leave tender kisses on the curves of her neck. “I do know all your weaknesses.”       “Asshole… I’ll deal with you… And make you whine.”       “I’ll give you a chance a little later.” Terrence runs his lips over Raquelle’s ears, pulls her earlobes tenderly, and leaves a tender kiss on the area behind them. “But now you can caress my divine body a little.”       “What if I don’t want?”       “Don’t miss a moment, babe!” Terrence exclaims and squeezes Raquelle’s buttocks with both hands. “We aren’t in the bedroom, and I can’t tie your hands, so you don’t do stupid things. And I’m more sexual than ever… Wet, wearing a swimming suit… M-m-m…”       Terrence makes a quiet moan and applies much more effort, covering Raquelle’s neck with kisses, while she slowly runs her hands over his tough chest and moves them to his abdomen, feeling that one touch of this part of his body makes her shake.       “Oh, yeah, babe…” Terrence pronounces with a wide smile and runs his lips over the front of Raquelle’s neck, while one hand of him slides over her flat belly, and another tenderly squeezes the small lady’s breasts. “Yeah… You’re waking up a fire inside me again…”       “I’d wake up a stronger one if I had control of you…” Raquelle exhales quietly with rolled eyes, puts her arm around Terrence’s neck, and runs her fingers through his hair. “Much stronger…”       “It’s just a warm-up. The most interesting things will start later, when I start to be more active. And tame my cutie that loves provoking me.”       “Said by the one to love to tease me by walking naked here.”       “You know, I madly love when you’re naked.” Terrence runs his thumb over Raquelle’s lips. “And I’d be happy to take off this suit and give your gorgeous body all my attention.”       After caressing the curve of Raquelle’s neck with his lips, Terrence confidently massages her breasts, which he later covers with tender kisses, stimulates her nipples with his thumb, and moves his hands to her thighs. The girl cannot hold down her quiet moans and starts breathing much heavier, feeling a tormenting tension in her whole body, over which a nice warmth starts spreading slowly.       “Ah, my sexy bitch!” Terrence growls with enjoyment, covering Raquelle’s collarbones with kisses and breathing heavily enough with a fast heartbeat. “You’re imitable, as always…”       “And you’re an insolent and shameless scumbag that uses the girl’s weaknesses,” Raquelle replies quietly and rolls her eyes with a sensual sigh. “I can’t even hit you between your legs and run.”       “Don’t dare to do this.” Terrence tightly grabs Raquelle by the throat and sets his eyes on hers with a heavy breath. “Or you’ll regret it. And if you try to control me, you’ll regret it, too.”       “I do love asking for your punishments.”       Raquelle puts a hand on Terrence’s cheek and wants to give him a passionate kiss. However, he steps back from the girl sharply, turns her back on him, and presses her closer to himself, locking his fingers on her breast.       “No, babe, no,” Terrence pronounces in a low voice with a wide smile and covers the curve of Raquelle’s neck that he has not kissed yet with kisses, feeling the dizzying smell of her body gets into his nose. “Now you must listen to me.”       “Huh, I have nothing to do!” Raquelle chuckles with a sly smile.       “Don’t make me mad, bitch.” Terrence runs the tips of his tongue over the area behind Raquelle’s ear, in which he wants to whisper something, squeezing her throat tightly. “Don’t make me undress you and get my penis into you right here.”       “It’s time to remember that I can’t take any kind of control.”       “It happens when you’re not wet enough yet.” Terrence tenderly squeezes Raquelle’s breasts with both hands. “And your body is not so hot yet…”       Terrence runs his hand underneath Raquelle’s red knickers and stimulates her clitoris, running his second hand over her belly, while she leans her head back with closed eyes and runs his genitals with her thighs in passion.       “And then, you’ll wish to become my slave and beg me to fuck you hard.”       “When did it happen?” Raquelle asks in a shaking voice with a sensual sigh. “I can’t remember that!”       “It’s okay, I shall remind you,” Terrence promises confidently, slowly runs one hand over Raquelle’s thighs and the inside of them and stimulates her tough enough nipples with the thumb of another hand. “You’ll remember everything when I’m ready to fuck my sexual cutie.”       “Please, Terrence…” Raquelle makes a few sensual and loud moans. “Ah… Ah…”       “Sh-h-h…” Terrence tightly closes Raquelle’s mouth with his hand, so that she can only moan and unconsciously move her things, while the man’s free hand caresses her breasts skillfully. “Quiet, baby, quiet… Sh-h-h…”       Terrence tenderly runs his hand over Raquelle’s belly, wraps his finger around her belly button, runs his fingers through her knickers again, and starts to stimulate her clitoris more actively. That’s why the girl tenses all her muscles much more with a feeling of eternal pleasure.       “You, bitch, do love when you’re treated like this,” Terrence notices with a sly smile, leaves a couple of kisses on the curve of Raquelle’s neck, and runs the tip of his tongue over sensitive areas on it, while she closes her eyes from pleasure. “Love making me show my power again and again and letting you know I’m the head of the home.”       Raquelle sharply tries to get out of Terrence’s grip. But he prevents it immediately by grabbing her by the throat tightly, pressing her closer to himself, and putting his second hand on her abdomen.       “Don’t force me to turn into an animal, cutie,” Terrence says confidently, while Raquelle tries to resist a wish to burn a fire up inside him. “Or I will fuck you so cruelly that you, bitch, will be screaming at the top of your lungs. You will lose your voice from pleasure!”       “You won’t do this…” Raquelle replies in a hoarse voice with a heavy breath.       “You are my fiancée. Almost my fiancée. I have the right to do anything I want to you. Anything you want.”       “Who said I want?”       “Your body. It says I should work on it well. That it needs the caress of the trustful man that knows how to make it bend backward along with my music.”       “You’re sick,” Raquelle laughs playfully. “Just sick…”       “What’s wrong, babe? Are you shy?” Terrence tenderly squeezes Raquelle’s breasts with both hands and massages them. “Shy about showing your fiancé what nature gave you so generously?”       “I just wanna wait ‘till the evening,” Raquelle smiles mysteriously, rolling her eyes. “When everybody sleeps, and you and I are alone in the bedroom.”       “Actually, you and I are alone now. I sent the servants to a shop. I mean, they came to me and asked for money to buy products. So, I gave it. So, you and I definitely have two hours. Enough to do many things to you…”       “Maybe, we will want ‘till tonight?”       “If you keep walking like this in front of me ‘till tonight, I will act like a hungry tiger and be able to attack you at any time.”       “So, that’s why I covered myself.” Raquelle proudly runs her hands over her belly and starts to hold her breasts under the bottom so that they seem bigger. “Because I know you wouldn’t control your saliva when staring at me and my gorgeous body.”       “Sorry…” Terrence pronounces, while his charmed look is set on Raquelle’s breasts, over which she slowly runs her fingers. “But you’re gonna be naked very soon. And I’m gonna have a lot of fun.”       Terrence puts his hand on Raquelle’s cheek with a sly smile, pulls her lips tenderly, gets his tongue into the girl’s mouth, and runs it over her palate and around her tongue. His hands slide over her breasts, belly, thighs, and curves of her waist, caress her crotch and the inside of her things and get underneath her knickers. The girl cannot resist such a good caress of the man and does not show resistance, moaning sensually at times.       “Okay, that’s better…” Terrence purrs with a smug smile, tenderly caresses Raquelle’s ear and the area behind it with his open mouth and moves her hair aside to open the view of the nape of her neck, and leaves a kiss on the area between her shoulder blades. “Good girl…”       “Oh, MacClife, how much I wanna kill you…” Raquelle makes a sensual moan. “Well, or just tightly tie you to the bed… And do what I want to you…”       “You won’t believe it, but I want the same. I wanna tie you to the bed and close your mouth. To see you helpless and vulnerable.”       “You’d better sit down and think about your terrible behavior better. And become at least a little shyer.”       After putting a hand on Terrence’s cheek, Raquelle gives him a continuous kiss on the lips and then leaves a few tender kisses on the curve of his neck. While her hands confidently slide over the male chest and the tough six-pack on his fit stomach. It relaxes the man and makes him forget what he wanted some time ago. Terrence tightly squeezes Raquelle’s buttocks with a blissful smile, keeping his back perfectly straight and his shoulders spread and making quiet moans at times.       “By the way, the water in the pool is great,” Terrence says in a low voice. “And today is so hot… Maybe… Let’s swim together?”       “No, MacClife, I just got out of the water,” Raquelle replies. “Don’t even dream of pulling me in there against my wish!”       “C’mon, tiger, let’s swim together.” Terrence hugs Raquelle from behind and squeezes her breast tenderly but tightly with one hand, kissing her on the neck at the same time. “Having sex in water is good. You don’t have to do this on a bed. You can do this in different places.”       “I said I wouldn’t go into the water.”       “Ha!” Terrence slowly turns Raquelle on himself and grabs her by the throat tightly, looking at her like he is her lord. “Do you think i’ll ask you? No! I am Terrence MacClife! The one, wishes and orders of who come true immediately.”       “And who said that?”       “Everyone says it!”       “Who’s everyone?”       “All my fans.”       “Yeah? I think I’ve never heard that!”       “Hey, stop arguing with me, you, stubborn donkey!” Terrence tightly squeezes Raquelle’s buttocks and caresses them after running his hands underneath her knickers, while his lips caress the front of her neck. “Or you’ll have to regret it.”       “Don’t dare to make me jump in the water!” Raquelle threatens Terrence with a finger. “You will regret it! I will be resisting! I swear!”       “I will overcome it! Because I know the gorgeous prize is waiting for me.”       “I’m not kidding, MacClife! I’m gonna bite you, scratch, and beat you with my hands and legs!”       “I’m way stronger than you and can easily twist your arm around if I want. Something like this.” Terrence sharply twists Raquelle’s arms around and holds them tightly.       “Terrence!”       “And then I do this!” Terrence slightly bites the skin on the most sensitive area of the curve of Raquelle’s neck.       “Hey!”       “And then I can play a little.” Terrence tightly squeezes Raquelle’s breast with one hand and runs another over her belly confidently, while she keeps moaning quietly with a heavy breath and bends her back backward.       “No, stop…” Raquelle leans her head back with closed eyes.       “Okay, I can take a little break.” Terrence steps back from Raquelle slowly, looks at her face for two seconds, touches her cheek with the tip of his nose so that his eyelashes nicely tickle her skin, and slides to her ear, which he bites slightly. “But it’s gonna be hard in your case.”       “Do you wanna make me deal with you seriously?”       “And if some mean bitches show off a lot and show resistance, I can tame them and make them obey me.” Terrence confidently runs his hand underneath Raquelle’s knickers and stimulates her clitoris.       “A-a-a, alright, stop it!” Raquelle makes a sensual moan, bending her back strongly and breathing heavily enough. “Please, don’t torture me.”       “No, baby, I haven’t even started to give you real pleasure yet. Of course, I can give a fuck about any foreplay and take you by force. But I’m a good boy and want my beloved girl to be happy. I want her to tell everyone Terrence MacClife is a hot, sexy, and incredible seducer.”       “You’re good?” Raquelle laughs shyly. “Don’t make me laugh, pretty boy! Everyone knows you’ve never been the one.”       “You think so?” Terrence, setting his sly and filthy look in Raquelle’s eyes, tightly grabs her by the throat. “You want me to show you what a bad guy really is. Huh, bitch? Want?”       “Just to admire how sexy you are when getting angry.”       “And how excited you get me when resisting!” Terrence growls with enjoyment, looking at Raquelle in a filthy way from head to foot, running his free hand over the curve of her waist and her thigh and squeezing her buttock slightly. “You know how it’s good to deal with a girl, who pretends to be innocent so hard but actually wants to be fucked rudely.”       “I get it,” Raquelle smiles slyly, looking into Terrence’s eyes confidently. “But sorry, I can’t help you. Not today.”       “Don’t dare to get out!” Terrence immediately prevents Raquelle’s attempt to step away and tightly grabs her by the hair, breathing a little heavily. “Remember, Raquelle, until I get what I want, you’ll not leave.”       “We aren’t in the bedroom, sweetie. You can’t tie me up to the bed and shut me up with a rag.”       “Right. But I know many other ways to give a girl incredible pleasure and bring her to orgasm. And they always work like a charm.”       Terrence tightly grabs Raquelle’s face and gets her involved in a continuous, passionate kiss, to which she answers powerlessly. A little later, he starts to hold her by the hair with one hand tightly, grabs her by the throat with another hand, and caresses one of the curves of her neck with a thumb. A quiet moan gets out of his mouth when the girl bites his lips tenderly, runs her tongue in his mouth, and slowly runs it over his palate. Then he leaves a couple of short kisses on the area behind her ears that he caresses with his lips, burning the soft skin with his hot breath. And exciting and dizzying kisses on the most sensitive areas of the lady’s neck give her eternal pleasure.       “It’s unnecessary,” Terrence says in a hoarse voice, takes off Raquelle’s transparent cape, puts it aside, and fixes her hair so that it beautifully falls from her shoulders, leaving the girl in her red sexual bikini that perfectly fits her exciting curves. “Yeah… I don’t understand why you actually put on this thing. You look good without it.”       “And then you’re gonna say I could put on no bikini,” Raquelle laughs shyly.       “I don’t actually mind it,” Terrence leaves a couple of kisses on Raquelle’s naked shoulders. “But since you’re still wearing something, I will take it off personally.”       Terrence leaves a few tender kisses on Raquelle’s neck and leaves a couple of slight bites on some areas. His hands slide along the curves of her waist and her back and then move to her breasts, which they massage confidently. While the girl unconsciously makes quiet moans and closes or rolls her eyes, understanding that her weak legs can barely hold her, breathing deeply and heavily enough, and literally feeling her fast heartbeat in her temples. At some moment, the man steps back and looks into her eyes with a wide smile, noticing that her pupils are dilated. He lets his forehead contact her forehead, caressing the curves of her neck and her collarbones with his fingertips, as he is breathing heavily.       Raquelle gives Terrence a tender, wide smile and caresses his cheeks with both hands. And later, she puts them on his chest and slowly, as if she wants to tease him, touches his lips with her lips and steps back. She does the same multiple times, literally feeling how much the man is dying from impatience and tensing all his muscles, while he nervously bites and licks his lips. And when the girl feels that the moment has come, she slowly and sensually pulls both of his lips, lets her tongue slide into his mouth, and runs it around his tongue with a quiet moan. While her hands are smoothly sliding over the whole tense, naked torso of her fiancé, who squeezes her buttocks and thighs with the pressure and presses her so closely to himself that she feels something tough getting into her abdomen.       At some moment, Terrence takes control of the situation secretly from her and gives her a much more passionate and wetter kiss, massaging the lady’s breasts confidently with one hand and running another in her thin knickers and squeezing the tough-to-touch buttock. A little later, he leaves one or two kisses on every single part of the girl’s face and smoothly slides to her shoulders, collarbones, and the curves of her gracious neck, which he covers with exciting kisses, tender bites, and wet paths. While his fiancée caresses her fiancé’s back and slightly scratches it with her nails, pressing herself closer to his hot body and closing or rolling her eyes with a feeling of easiness in her head. In passion, she strongly pulls his hair, leaves a few kisses on the curve of his neck, and runs her tongue over the most sensitive areas on it and on the area behind his ear, the tender breath on which makes him feel goosebumps on the whole body.       “Oh, God, Terrence…” Raquelle makes a sensual moan, scratching Terrence’s back with her nails. “Ah…”       “My wild cat,” Terrence pronounces with a wide smile in a low voice, while one hand of his slides over Raquelle’s back, and his second hand holds her by the nape of her neck, and his lips cover the girl’s collarbones and breasts. “You’re gorgeous… Gorgeous…”       Terrence turns Raquelle with his back to him and runs his lips over the front of her neck, running his hand in her knickers and starting to stimulate her clitoris tenderly.       “Ah, how you’re so wet,” Terrence pronounces in a low voice with a smug smile, runs his tongue over the hole in Raquelle’s throat and kisses the same area tenderly. “How wet and hot you are…”       “Ar-r-r, MacClife, you, fucking asshole…” Raquelle makes a growl that is close to a sensual moan, leaning her head back with a heavy breath. “I hate you…”       “You’ve been irritating me since our first meeting.” Terrence sharply grabs Raquelle by the throat and gives her an assertive kiss on the lips, running his second hand over her belly or her pubis. “But I want my penis inside you… From the same day…”       “And I want to hit you on your balls!”       “Better shut up and do me a blowjob.” Terrence slowly runs his thumb over Raquelle’s lips with his head proudly raised. “Please me like a professional slut.”       “I’m imagining how you’d whine if I tied you up to the bed before,” Raquelle smiles slyly, turns on Terrence, and slowly runs her hands over his chest. “If I tortured you for a long time at first and then thought about whether I should just touch your penis.”       Raquelle tenderly runs her lips over the curve of Terrence’s neck and leaves a couple of kisses on the area behind his ear, which she caresses with the tip of her tongue.       “You would scream at the top of your lungs, ‘Let me go now, bitch! Or you will regret it! Let me go, I said! You must listen to me!’” Raquelle moves her hand to Terrence’s abdomen, pretending that she wants to slide to his penis, but not doing this on purpose. “But it’s gonna be just words. You’d be able to do nothing.”       “Ar-r-r…” Terrence growls loudly with enjoyment, breathing heavily enough and tensing all his muscles. “Shut up, bitch! One more word or act before you regret it!”       “And then I can shut you up with a tape and deprive you of the ability to see what’s happening,” Raquelle says in a lower, seducing voice, while her hands slide over Terrence’s torso, brings her face very close to his face and glances at his slightly shaking lips. “So, you feel only my breath… My kisses… My touches…”       “I said, don’t provoke me!” Terrence tightly grabs Raquelle by the hair and sharply presses her to himself, setting his burning gaze into her eyes. “Don’t make me tear this fucking bikini and fuck you right in this place!”       “Hey, hey, calm down, horse! Why did you get so excited? I haven’t done anything yet!”       “No, I haven’t ended the warm-up! You don’t the fuck know what I can do to you.”       “I didn’t impose on you,” Raquelle smiles innocently. “You decided to get in touch with the one that can be a fire or a dangerous animal.”       “It’s okay, I will quickly tame this animal. This tiger that thinks her tricks would let her get off me easily.”       Raquelle sharply runs aside and starts to run in circles with a loud laugh when Terrence rushes after her, thinking of throwing her in the pool after glancing at it. The girl avoids the loss and rides the man for some time, but he catches her later, hugs her tightly from behind, leaves an exciting kiss on the curve of her neck, and runs the tip of his tongue over some part of it.       “Okay, babe, I’m sick of playing this game,” Terrence says confidently. “It’s time to deal with you seriously. But first, let’s get some fresh. Today is kinda hot. And your body spreads hot…”       “What?” Raquelle rounds her eyes.       When Raquelle barely opens her mouth, Terrence takes her in his arms with a sly smile and goes to the pool.       “Hey, put me on my legs!” Raquelle starts to protest loudly, shaking her legs and giving Terrence slight hits on his shoulder. “Now! MacClife! Are you deaf? Put me on my legs! Ma-a-a-a…”       Raquelle does not speak her mind because Terrence runs to the pool with the girl in his arms and jumps into it. They eventually end up underwater but come up to the appearance quickly enough. The man does it first and laughs quickly, and then the girl does the same, clears her throat quickly, and runs her hands over her wet face.       “Idiot!” Raquelle resents loudly. “I said I wouldn’t get into the water!”       “But I liked it!” Terrence confesses funnily and splashes water over Raquelle. “So much.”       “MacClife, stop it now!”       “So, dolly, do you still remember what you wanted to do to me? Or did the water make you lose your memory? Just like it happened to our dearest Mr. Perkins?”       “I remember. Very well. And I know how I’m gonna have fun tonight. Revenge on you for everything you did now.”       “I haven’t ended it.” Terrence swims closer to Raquelle, presses her closer to himself, and gives her an exciting kiss on the front of her neck, making her moan quietly. “I said you wouldn’t get off me easily.”       “Okay,” Raquelle smiles mysteriously and caresses Terrence’s face with both hands. “Do what you want. I’ll give you this chance. But remember, the more you drive me crazy, the more you will have to pay tonight.”       “Fair. I’ll take off your bikini and give enough attention to your body. And then you will take off my suit and do anything you want. My Apollo body is all yours.”       “But, my honey, I advise you to swim away as fast as possible.”       “Why?”       “Because you’re gonna be punished.”       Raquelle pumps a lot of air into her lungs, grabs Terrence by the leg, and pulls him underwater. The man manages to pump air into his lungs and uses it because the girl comes up to the surface and does not let him get up. But since she does not want to drown him, she lets him do it later.       “Fuck…” Terrence exhales sharply and wipes his wet face with his hands. “Okay, bitch, I will make you pay for it.”       Terrence, putting his hand on Raquelle’s head, sharply gets her underwater and does not let her get up for a few seconds. But he lets her go when she grabs him by the leg again and pulls him down. It happens for some time. The lovers do not miss a chance to prank each other when they pretend they got too much water in their throats and drowned. Also, they are fighting with each other and splashing water over each other, thrilling with a loud laugh and forgetting about all their problems.       “Hey, calm down!” Raquelle makes a happy whoop when she tries to avoid the water that gets into her face again. “Stop, I said!”       “Why don’t I use this chance to play a little?” Terrence smiles innocently. “That’s…”       Terrence barely moves underwater when Raquelle splashes the water over him again. She moves down and tries to tickle him a little, making him get on the surface immediately, as he lacks air because of a laugh attack. The man tries to answer the girl back and tickles her, too. She also thrills with a loud laugh and decides to use the way that he loves to use when she is in anger and too excited. Raquelle just sharply gets her excited fiancée involved in a kiss full of passion, holding him by the back of his head with one hand and keeping another hand on his cheek. Terrence answers this gesture and relaxes quickly enough. And later, he does not refuse the temptation to cover Raquelle’s neck with a few exciting kisses and slight bites that make her roll her eyes with sensual moans.       “I’ve got an idea!” Terrence exclaims. “Take a breath!”       “What?” Raquelle does not understand it.       Terrence gets underwater, drags Raquelle after him, and makes an attempt to kiss her in this atmosphere. But they do it only for some time because of a lack of air. That’s why they get up to the surface and cough quietly because some water got into their throats and wipe their wet faces.       “Ah, MacClife, you can drive me insane…” Raquelle says with a mysterious smile, swimming closer to the edge of the pool, putting her arms on it, and sticking her breasts up.       “There might be no doubt about it,” Terrence replies with pride, swimming closer to Raquelle and slowly running his lips over the open areas of her breasts that he caresses with both hands. “And you’ve never been able to resist me. No matter how hard you show off.”       Terrence gets Raquelle involved in a continuous, passionate kiss, hearing her quiet moan when he slowly runs his tongue over her tongue and palate. The man caresses her neck, collarbones, and shoulders with great pleasure with both hands and lips. And then he gets underwater to do it to her belly and thighs, holding her by the curves of her waist. While the girl leans her head back and moans sensually with a shake in her whole body, a fast heartbeat, a heavy breath, and a slight dizziness. And after the man pulls her knickers, rubs her clitoris with his fingers tenderly, and leaves a couple of kisses on the lady’s pubis and the inside of her thighs, he gets up to the surface and wipes his face with both hands.       “Oh, Raquelle, you’re irresistible,” Terrence says in a low voice with a wide smile and kisses Raquelle tenderly on the neck. “Nobody else gets me as excited as you.”       “I’m all yours,” Raquelle purrs with a mysterious smile. “Do anything you want to me. Everything that drives me crazy.”       “I am going to use this chance.”       Terrence picks Raquelle up by the thighs and gives her a continuous kiss that might change from a tender and innocent one to an aggressive and assertive one. The girl answers it with pleasure, running her fingers through his hair on the back of his head, putting a hand on his cheek, and wrapping his waist with her legs. A few seconds later, the man tenderly bites the skin on the front of her neck, using the moment when she leans her head back. His arms are wrapped around her waist, his hand is sliding over her perfectly straight back, and his fingers are getting through her wet matted hair.       Sometimes Terrence may massage Raquelle’s small breasts or caress her tough nipples with his thumbs or mouth, knowing well that it drives her crazy. While the girl runs her fingers through her fiancé’s hair, scratches his back slightly, and tenderly bites or licks some areas on his neck and his ears, behind which she also leaves a couple of kisses. The naked male torso also gets some attention from the lady and tons of kisses that are waking up his wish to possess this dark-haired beauty more and more.       

***

      Peter went to the home of Helene and her grandmother, Scarlett. The woman and the boyfriend of her granddaughter are now sitting in her room, and the dog Sammy does not almost leave them, pressing himself to the man or comforting the grandmother of his owner, for whom the news about being rejected by her parents became a great shock.       “No, nothing has changed in the past two days,” Scarlett says with sadness in her eyes. “Helene doesn’t almost talk to me… I mean, she doesn’t do it at all. As if I am not here.”       “Yeah, I hoped she’d calm down quickly,” Peter replies thoughtfully, petting Sammy’s head, while the dog’s face is placed on his laps.       “My granddaughter literally fell into depression.” Scarlett glances at Sammy. “She did even refuse to walk with Sammy. And she didn’t wake up to feed him. I had to do it by myself.”       “Did he eat?”       “A little bit. The poor boy is also worried about his owner and feels stressed.”       Sammy whines quietly, looking at Peter and Scarlett by one.       “Oh, damn…” Peter sighs tiredly, stroking Sammy’s hair.       “I don’t know what to do, Peter…” Scarlett says in a little shaking voice. “Helene doesn’t want to talk to me. And she calls you a betrayer, even if you did nothing.”       “I told you she would be angry at us for some time. Though, I thought your granddaughter would calm down after sleeping a little.”       “And when will she get better? When will Helene understand that she’s doing a bad thing? It’s okay that she ignores me. But you are also guilty. And even Sammy. She does ignore him, as well. She doesn’t walk with him, doesn’t feed him, doesn’t pet him, and doesn’t play with him. Thank God, you’re watching him. Otherwise, it would be hard for me to do it alone.”       “Oh, Mrs. Marshall…” Peter pronounces thoughtfully. “I’m stressed, too. At the thought that… My relationship with Helene is under threat. What if she wants to leave me? What if your granddaughter gets something into her mind and tells me about a breakup?”       “No, no, sweetie, for Jesus Christ! I’m praying that my girl doesn’t think about it. If she loses such a wonderful man, I will be saddened.”       “As well as I will be if I lose that girl.”       “Gosh, I didn’t think she would have this hysteria…” Scarlett sighs heavily, giving her hand to Sammy and running it over his hair.       “You remember that she couldn’t come to herself after Mr. Marshall’s death for a long time.”       “Yeah, Helene was so attracted to her grandfather and couldn’t accept the loss of him… And I felt pain from the thought that I had lost my husband, whom I loved so much. But she didn’t have such a strong hysteria. She blamed nobody for anything and talked to everybody. Now everything is different! I hope she will not stop speaking to her friends.”       “Maybe, they will help us get her out of this condition. Maybe, the girls will make Helene wake up and realize that she is doing a bad thing.”       “By the way, do they know what happened?”       “At least, I’ve said nothing. And the men, too. We were busy with the band’s problems. We got some new problems with Daniel and are trying to find a way to solve them.”       “But will you tell?”       “Yes, sure. I won’t be silent.”       “Talk to the men and the girls. What if Helene makes them guilty of the fact that her parents rejected her.”       “Sure, Mrs. Marshall.”       Sammy whines quietly, coming to Scarlett, putting his head on her laps, and letting her pet him.       “What do you think is happening to Helene’s parents?” Peter frowns slightly.       “I don’t know, Peter,” Scarlett shrugs, softly yanking Sammy’s ears. “But I don’t think they are dead. They’re supposed to be about forty. Wendy is forty-three, and Brooklyn is forty-four.”       “Have they really never wanted to know what happens to their daughter? Maybe, her mother woke up? Maybe, her father realized that his family did a cruel thing to him?”       “If they had, they would have tried to contact me a long time ago. Maybe, they can’t know where I’m living because Roger and I moved here from Kingston a long time ago, but my phone number hasn’t changed.”       “How long ago were you in Kingston?”       “Oh! I haven’t been there since my husband, my granddaughter, and I moved here. But Helene’s parents probably don't live there. Maybe, they met someone and moved to another city. Who knows.”       “I wish their hearts trembled someday, and they wanted to find you and your granddaughter.”       “I’m not sure Helene will accept them. She will hate her mother for wishing to kill her and leaving her after giving birth, and her father for being too weak and dependent on his family.”       “I imagine how shocked she would’ve been if her parents had shown up when she thought her mother died during childbirth, and her father did a long time before her birth.”       “Yeah, me too… And that was my mistake. A wish not to make my granddaughter hate her parents led to the lie. Roger and I thought that Helene wouldn’t be mad at them, thinking her father and mother were dead. Because… You can’t blame them for death.”       “I get it…” Peter exhales slowly and runs his hands over his hair. “I understand you wanted to make it better.”       “I should’ve told her everything much earlier and never lied,” Scarlett says with pity in her eyes, holding tears down too hard. “I could’ve come up with something when she was a baby, but she should’ve known everything after becoming a teenager. Maybe, she would’ve accepted it and forgiven her grandfather and me for hiding the truth.”       Sammy whines quietly, and Peter looks at Scarlett literally crying for two seconds, and caresses her shoulder.       “Don’t blame yourself, Mrs. Marshall,” Peter says softly. “Helene will forgive you, early or late. She cannot be angry at you and blame everyone for what happened forever. And you’re not the one to blame! You just cared about her mental health.”       “No, my husband and I are the ones to blame for not finding the courage to tell her everything… Even you became the one to blame against your wish. I didn’t think she’d make you guilty. She insults you and beats you like you really did something bad.”       “It also gives me pain, and I’m in despair. But I’m ready to wait as long as I have to. Because I know I shouldn’t leave Helene… I love her and remember she saved my life once, and I will always be grateful to her. That girl has always been a ray of sunshine in my life.”       “Gosh, Peter, what a wonderful man you are.” Scarlett caresses Peter’s shoulder with a slight smile. “As loyal as a dog. I’ve thanked God so many times for sending you to my granddaughter. She wouldn’t find a better man.”       “I’m madly glad she came into mine. And agreed to date me. By that time, I got sick of being single. I wanted to fall in love with someone and spend time with a beloved girl… It was sad to watch my friends dating someone and feeling happy. I was like an outsider among them. A lonely outsider without a partner.”       “I know, sweetie. Thank you so much for being next to Helene and caring about her. My intuition didn’t betray me when I thought you were the perfect partner for her. Not only did I think so. Some time before his death, Roger said the same. He also wanted you to date our granddaughter. And I’m sure my husband would’ve been madly happy to know Helene decided to be with you.”       “And thank you so much for being so nice to me,” Peter replies with a slight smile. “You have really become a close person to me… You are like a mother, who I had, but who never loved me. And even Mr. Marshall became close to me, even if I barely spoke to him. However, I knew I would feel good with you.”       “And you are like a son that I have never had.”       Peter smiles much wider, and then Scarlett takes him into her touching hug that he accepts, feeling something nice that makes the man forget about what’s happening to Helene, and his band, his friends, and everything just for a while. A few seconds later, they step away from each other and smile slightly, but recall what’s happening when they glance at the sad Sammy sitting quietly next to them.       “Okay, maybe, you try to talk to Helene again?” Scarlett asks softly. “I’m not sure if she’ll wish to listen to you, but still…”       “I will,” Peter nods. “Even if I doubt the success.”       “Anyway, I will be here or in the kitchen.”       “Early or late, it will end.”       “God shall help, sweetie.”       Peter looks at Scarlett for two seconds, stands up from the sofa slowly, exhaling quietly, and moves his eyes to Sammy.       “Sammy, you wanna go with me?” Peter asks. “Try to talk to Helene again?”       Sammy barks quietly and immediately follows Peter, who goes to Helene’s room. The man comes to the half-open door, opens it, and sees Helene lying on the bed with her face turned to the wall and her back turned to the exit. The girl is curled up, sets her wet eyes into the distance, and does not react to the blond’s appearance. Peter looks at Helene with pity in his eyes for two seconds, then comes to the bed, on which she is lying, along with Sammy, and sits on it.       “Helene…” Peter pronounces very softly, caresses Helene’s head tenderly, and fixes her hair. “Helene, sweetheart… I understand you feel bad after what you found out. But please, don’t withdraw into you… Talk to me. I wanna help you.”       “Leave me, Peter,” Helene says in a very quiet, little shaking voice, still looking into the distance. “I don’t wanna talk to anyone.”       Sammy whines quietly with sadness in his eyes, as if he begs Helene to pay attention to him and Peter, who unwillingly thinks of himself having the same condition.       “Please, sweetie, I wanna help you,” Peter says quietly with sadness in his eyes. “I don’t want you to be what I was somehow. Someone like the one I was a few months ago.”       “I need nobody’s help,” Helene cuts off coldly. “I want you to get out of my room and leave me alone.”       “That’s wrong, Helene. Are you going to lie and suffer like this all your life? It’s been two days, but you can’t come to yourself. And you blame everybody for what happened.”       “So, am I the one to blame? Am I guilty for being born and ruining everybody’s life?”       “No, honey, what you’re talking about!” Peter gets horrified. “You’re guilty of nothing!”       “I am! My mother and father didn’t need me! They left me! And my mother actually wanted to kill me!”       “I don’t deny it. That’s bad that she wanted it, even if your grandmother and grandfather agreed to help her raise you. They didn’t turn their backs on their daughter when she got pregnant with you.”       “But they betrayed me by lying to me all my life and wishing to make me believe that my parents were good.”       “Helene…”       “It would’ve been fine if Father and Mother had gotten divorced, and my grandfather and grandmother had tried to make me sure that I was still loved. But they lied to me! Lied all my life! They came up with such an insolent lie like my parents’ death.”       “Trust me, your grandmother is very sorry about deciding to hide the truth. And she’s worried that you won’t speak to her.”       “She wanted to make me suffer. She and Grandfather Roger.”       “Don’t say that,” Peter protests. “Mr. and Mrs. Marshall always wished you the best.”       “I see. They lied to me for all those years.”       “Do you think a little child should know these things?”       “They always said it! Even when I became a teenager!”       “Please, Helene, stop acting like this,” Peter begs with pity in his eyes, caressing Helene’s shoulder softly. “Stop ignoring everybody and being mad. And talk to your grandmother.”       “Don’t tell me what to do. I’m an adult and can make decisions.”       “You did even make Sammy guilty!” Peter glances at Sammy sitting in front of Helene and looking at her with sadness in his eyes. “You refuse to walk with him, feed him, and play with him! But you know how it’s hurtful for him to see you like this!”       Sammy whines with pity and slightly touches Helene’s back with his nose, being really saddened that his owner does not pay attention to him.       “Leave me alone, Rose,” Helene pronounces in a low, shaking voice and sniffs quietly. “I don’t want to see you.”       “Don’t you understand what kind of pain you give all of us?” Peter wonders with pity in his eyes, bends closer to Helene, kisses her on the temple, and caresses her cheek. “It’s hurtful for us to know you’re ignoring us and making us guilty of the fact that your parents did that to you.”       “Yeah…” Helene sneers contemptuously. “First, you agreed against me and then decided to pretend that you’re sorry.”       “Nobody agreed against you. Mrs. Marshall just shared the story of your birth with me.”       “And then you decided to support her and say nothing to me!”       “Because it’s none of my business. You should personally talk about these things with your grandmother.”       “Stop finding excuses, Rose. It’s disgusting for me to hear you trying to whitewash you and my grandmother and making me sure you did not betray me.”       “It’s hurtful for me to hear it… I do everything for you, but you treat me like this.”       “You do nothing to me!” Helene says a little louder. “Nothing! I am actually sorry I got in touch with you!”       “Helene…” Peter rounds his eyes, getting sharply white from horror. “What you’re talking about…”       “It’s disgusting for me to be with you. To see you. To hear your voice. To know something about you. I hate you. I hate.”       Sammy whines with great pity, starting to feel more and more sorry for Peter, who literally has wet eyes from the feeling that he was showered with mud.       “You’re unfair to me, sweetie,” Peter pronounces in a shaking voice. “I did nothing for you to treat me like this.”       “You betrayed me!” Helene says much louder. “You and my grandmother agreed against me! You wanted me to suffer! Cry and hate you! I did everything for you two, but you just spit in my face!”       “What’s the fault of your grandmother and grandfather? The fact that they raised you and didn’t let your mother kill you or didn’t let a stranger take you? You must be grateful to her and your grandfather ‘cause they raised you, and you lived with your relatives, not strangers. What if they hid that you were adopted? You would have been mad at them? Forgotten that they gave you everything?”       “Do not read me lectures. I do not need them.”       “Excuse me, Helene, but you're doing a very stupid thing,” Peter says quietly. “I completely understand it, but what you’re doing is too much.”       “Yeah?” Helene sits up sharply and sets her wet, contemptuous look on Peter. “It’s easy to teach others when you hate your mother for preferring alcohol! How do you the fuck dare to tell me to love my parents when you hate yours? For literally rejecting you!”       “Now it’s not about my parents and my life. It’s about what you’re doing to your grandmother and grandfather. Me. Sammy. What you might do to your friends. Would you make them guilty, too?”       “I am guilty!” Helene exclaims loudly. “The fact that my mother decided to kill me! Kill the child that she was carrying under her heart!”       “You’re guilty of nothing. Nobody is safe from these things. And someone doesn’t just think that everything may end like this.”       “Who cares if they’re saved or not? She had no right to do it! SHE DID NOT HAVE!”       “Quiet, quiet, sweetie, don’t scream,” Peter says softly, presses Helene to himself so that he holds her head on the bend of his arm, locks his fingers on her chest, snuggles his face in the top of her head, and kisses her on the cheek. “It’s okay.”       “How you dared to go to my home and enter my room without the invitation,” Helene resents and sniffs quietly, stepping back from Peter sharply. “After what you did, you have no right to show up at this place.”       “I came and will come.”       “Ah yeah, my grandmother lets you in. Two betrayers keep agreeing against me. Who have no right to be at my home.”       “So, should your grandmother leave home?”       “I don’t wish to see her! You can take her home if you adore that woman! And I will live alone!”       “Wake up, Helene, please,” Peter begs with pity. “Your grandmother did nothing bad for you to be treated like this. She loves you and wishes you all the best, Helene. But you make her nervous. People of her age should not worry, but you torture her. God shall not let her end up in a hospital! Mrs. Marshall has been taking sedatives for two days because she is too nervous.”       “Listen, Rose, stop talking…” Helene moans tiredly. “I’m sick of listening to you.”       “If you wanna find someone to take it out on, let it be me. Immediately apologize to your grandmother and stop ignoring her. Even if you hurt me, I won’t leave you, I promise. If don’t wanna talk to me, don’t do it! But please, stop treating that woman, who didn’t deserve it, like this.”       “I don’t want to talk to anyone,” Helene throws rudely. “Leave me alone, everyone! ALONE! I DON’T WANT TO SEE ANYONE! ESPECIALLY THE FUCK YOU, ROSE!”       Sammy whines with pity and raises his paw up, getting scared by the loud shout of his owner.       “Hey, hey, stop screaming,” Peter calms down quietly and softly, caressing Helene’s head. “You’re scaring Sammy. Look how he’s terrified.”       “I DO GIVE A FUCK ABOUT EVERYTHING!” Helene screams, grabbing her hair for a second. “DID I SAY SOMETHING UNCLEAR?”       “Will you even reject Sammy? Is this doggy also the one to blame for what happened? Are you ready to betray him?”       Sammy whines again and puts his face on the bed, looking at Helene with pity in his eyes.       “Helene, please…” Peter begs with pity in his eyes, taking Helene’s hands. “Please, don’t do many more stupid things.”       “Just leave me alone,” Helene says quietly, steps back from Peter sharply, and lies on the bed with her face turned to the wall. “Better walk with Sammy and feed him.”       “Your grandmother has fed him and walked.”       “Then take him with you. I don’t wanna take care of him.”       Sammy carefully puts his nose in Helene’s bend and puts his face on her hip, still whining with pity in the hope that his owner will not leave him.       “Don’t worry, I shall take care of him,” Peter says confidently. “Watch him as long as I have to. Do my best for you to come to yourself soon.”       Peter softly caresses Helene’s back, shoulder, and head and slides to her cheek. But the girl sharply takes his hand off her face and moves closer to the wall.       “Okay, say nothing if you want to,” Peter says with sadness in his eyes. “Just mean that I will always be with you. Because I love you and owe you for many things.”       “Go to the fuck with your love, idiot!” Helene throws rudely. “First, you agree against me, but then swear your love and pretend to be a victim.”       “Please, don’t say these words. It’s too hard for me now. I haven’t recovered from what happened to me. And I don’t wanna go where I barely got out of.”       “STOP IT!” Helene screams. “STOP! I AM SICK OF LISTENING TO YOU! I DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU, YOUR FEELINGS, AND EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU! I DO NOT WISH TO SEE YOU! DO WHAT YOU WANT, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE! GET OUT OF HERE ONCE AND FOREVER!”       When Helene starts to beat Peter on his arms, head, and chest with no regret, the excited Sammy starts to bark loudly with the hope of calming his owner down. The man barely holds down the tears of hurt and despair, as he makes himself take it all and think that his girlfriend would never treat him like this. That it’s just the consequences of her condition.       “I HATE YOU, I HATE!” Helene keeps screaming with tears in her eyes, not caring about Sammy and giving Peter hits on everything she sees, and slapping him in the face two times. “BETRAYER! CAD! SCUM! WHY DID I ACTUALLY GET IN TOUCH WITH YOU?”       “Stop, Helene, stop!” Peter raises his voice in despair, looking at Helene with literally wet from tears eyes. “Wake up! Think of what you’re doing!”       “GET OUT OF MY ROOM! GET OUT!”       Helene sits up sharply, scaring Sammy, who quickly jumps aside, closer to the door with a quiet bark. The girl stands up from the bed, strongly beats Peter on his arms several times, gets him up from the bed, and begins pushing him out of the room rudely enough.       “LEAVE MY HOME!” Helene demands with tears at the top of her lungs. “GET OUT! AND NEVER COME BACK! NEVER! I DO NOT WANT TO SEE YOU! DO NOT WANT! DO NOT WANT!”       The discouraged, literally crying Peter does not realize how he ends up behind the door along with Sammy, who runs away from the room of Helene in scare, whining with pity or barking quietly.       “GO TO THE FUCK, SCUMBAG!” Helene screams at the top of her lungs and pushes Peter in the back strongly. “LEAVE ME ALONE!”       Helene sharply closes the door right in front of Peter, who starts to knock his fist against it, saying loudly:       “Helene! Helene, open the door! You hear me? Please, don’t do stupid things!”       “I SAID GO TO THE FUCKING HELL!” Helene screams behind the door. “OR I WILL PERSONALLY KICK YOU OUT!”       Sammy whines with pity, barks quietly, and scratches the closed door with a paw, begging Helene to let him in. But the girl does not react and makes the scared and upset dog much sadder and worried about her much more. Peter gives up on trying to reach his girlfriend, who locked the door, and puts his ear to it, listening to the sounds and hearing the girl crying bitterly. The heart is squeezing painfully, and the anxiety is getting much stronger. Also, the blond is getting more indifferent about whether he can stay strong and not break down before his beloved girl finally comes to him.       “Why are you doing this, Helene?” Peter thinks, leaning on the closed door with his forehead, clenching his hands into fists, and knocking at it quietly one time. “Why do you treat me like this? I get it all, but that’s too much! Damn… Why do I take it? I didn’t deserve all of that! I didn’t do it! Why do I have to suffer again? Why doesn’t fate want me to be happy?”       Peter sniffs quietly and leans on the wall near the closed door with his back, feeling that a tear rolls over his cheek, closing his mouth with a hand and understanding he starts to shake slightly from a strong tension. While Sammy moves his sad eyes to him and starts to whine with pity, completely understanding how bad he feels, even if the man does not say it aloud.       “I won’t bear it…” Peter thinks with tears in his eyes. “I won’t bear it all. Now, I’m not sure if I can do it. Taking all of that from Helene is much harder than I thought. Even the thought that it’s just her emotions doesn’t help me. I’m on edge. A little bit before I break down. Really, I can’t take it anymore. I can’t… Though, I know I must be strong. For her, for the band, for my friends. I swore to get out of the pool. But fuck… I can’t… I feel bad… Very bad… That’s just unbearable…”       Peter stands near the closed door for some time and barely struggles with his feelings and himself. And then he sharply runs to the bathroom, opens the faucet with cold water, and washes his white face, not getting better and still shaking. The man moves his eyes to his reflection and sees that his amber eyes are a little lackluster, red, sad, and wet from tears coming to them and rolling over his cheeks slowly. Peter looks at his tired face through the mirror for some time, washes it again with cold water, turns off the faucet, and slowly looks at the whole bathroom. He unconsciously thinks about how he locked himself in similar places to take something sharp and make a couple of cuts on his hands. He is still shaking from the feeling when a cold blade touches the skin and tears it in two.       He thought it was how pain, sadness, and worries were getting out of him. But that was the wrong thing. He did not actually get better. But self-harming quickly became a habit that he could not live without. Even after getting caught by Helene doing that, the blond could not stop and eventually brought himself to a wish to kill himself. And if his friends had not wanted to save him, Peter would have hardly been alive and tried to get rid of despair and a wish to give a damn about his promises. The man is very close to returning to his old habits. No thoughts help him control his condition and make himself shake up. And at some moment, Peter, wiping tears under his eyes, glances at everything placed on the sink: a bottle of cheap soap, a glass with two tool brushes, a stand with a bar of light green soap, a transparent box with a pink razor, and another one with blades.       The man gets attracted to the last one, takes it hesitantly, and opens it. Looking at the new blades, he gets obsessed with a weird feeling that clouds his mind more and more and makes him obey it. Peter tries to get rid of these thoughts too hard, but it’s very hard for him to fight with himself when he is in despair and might break down. He unconsciously recalls the hardest years of his life, when he wanted to die and kind of punished himself by harming himself regularly. The blades literally hypnotize him and make him grab one of them and take at least one cut. They kind of make him sure he will get much better. And the blond, looking at them with widely open eyes, obeys the call eventually.       Peter takes a little blade with a shaking hand and focuses his attention on it, putting the box in its place. Under the bright light of the bathroom, this metallic, cold, sharp piece shines beautifully and possesses the man. He starts to think about how unfair Helene was to him. How she was insulting him, humiliating him, and even beating him. It gives him strong pain. The pain caused by the realization that his beloved girl treats him like this. His condition gets much worse not only because of this. But also because his old wounds have not been gone, and the blond still has to fight with him. He could do it somehow before, but now he does not have the strength. He is about to break down and come back to the old things, giving a damn about all the promises and the thought that his close people would be worried about him. The memories of the past get obsessed with him more and more and make him feel like a worthless reject. Starting with the bad attitude of his mother toward him and the bullying at school. Ending with the betrayal of the girl, with whom he was in love, and the moment when he almost betrayed the band.       Peter slightly moves the bracelets on his left hand and slowly brings the blade to the wrist, on which there is a scar that always reminds him of the unsuccessful attempt to kill himself and all the moments of self-harming. He is so close to taking a cut right now, at the home of his girlfriend, who literally provoked him to break down. He gets more and more tears in his red eyes, and his body is getting very tense and starts shaking lightly. Later, the blond brings the blade so close to the skin that he immediately feels the freeze. But something does not let him get in deeper and take a cut. It wakes Peter up. He starts to protest too hard and tries to make himself stop before it’s too late. A few seconds of a hard fight with his opposite feelings and a wish to overcome the pain before the man, breathing heavily enough, sharply throws the blade as far as possible with a cry and looks at the whole living room with widely open eyes.       “No!” Peter shouts with despair and tightly grabs his hair with both hands, feeling how strongly he is shaking from tension and not even trying to hide the tears rolling over his white face. “No! I can’t! I can’t! No!”       Because of the excitement, it’s hard enough for Peter to breathe, and his heart is beating much faster. He swears at himself for almost breaking the promise and coming back to what almost killed him one day. At some moment, the blond leans on the wall with his back and slides down it slowly and powerlessly, bends his legs at his knees, runs fingers through his hair, inclines his head, and closes his face with both hands, starting to sob at times without a fear that someone would see him crying. Even the memories of being called a weak girl do not make him stop. He does not just have the strength. He is in despair. He cannot keep inside what is killing him and giving him such great pain. The blond does not even try to wipe off tears and lets them fall on his stylish light denim waistcoat that perfectly fits his jeans of the same color and a simple white t-shirt.       “No, fuck, don’t be a coward, Rose, no…” Peter thinks, leaning on the wall with the back of his head, raising his head, closing his eyes tightly, clenching his hands into fists tightly, and sometimes making quiet sobs of despair. “Don’t dare, freak! DON’T DARE! Somehow, you already did that! Don’t dare to show your weakness again! Prove that you’re a coward. A bastard that can’t keep his promise. I can betray no one. I have no right. The band needs you. Helene needs you. Your friend will be worried if you do it again. No, idiot, no! Don’t dare!”       Peter runs his hands over his face and hair, sniffing quietly two times.       “Don’t do this again!” Peter tries to convince himself, starting to shake much stronger than before. “Don’t dare! You must be with Helene, despite nothing. She saved your life, bastard. She suffered because of you. She was worried. You, asshole, can’t thank her in THIS way! This is your duty! Not only for her! But also for those, who spent time on you. If you do the old things again, you will be an egoist for everybody. Don’t dare! STOP! You are a fucking man, not a coward! Brace yourself! Stop acting like a girl! Or you will really stay alone and die one beautiful day. And nobody will care about it!”       Peter hides his face on his knees and starts to fight with a panic attack, with which he gets obsessed because of the strong tension. He tried to hold on until the end, but what’s happening strikes him down. And now the man is not sure that he will take everything he has to experience. That he will not go crazy before Helene finally comes to herself. This fight deprived him of all his strength. Tears are coming out of his eyes, and he is not able to stop this flow.       The man does not notice that someone starts to scratch the squeaking door quietly. A little later, Sammy enters the bathroom after opening it with his nose. The dog kind of knows how bad Peter feels and whines with pity, while the man breathing heavily and shaking is pulling his hair. The pet watches him for two seconds with sad eyes, and then he comes to him and slightly touches the man’s hand that closes his face with his paw. It makes Peter move his wet eyes to Sammy.       “Sammy…” Peter whispers in a shaking voice and sniffs quietly with tears in his eyes. “Sammy, buddy…”       Peter caresses Sammy’s head and looks at him with red, wet eyes. The dog starts to whine with greater pity, snuggles his face, licks his nose, and presses himself to him, so the blond hugs him.       “I feel very bad, dude…” Peter whispers. “I’m afraid I can’t take it all… I know I’m acting like a milksop, but it’s unbearable… I’m thinking of a wish to die more and more. Or at least hurt me…”       Sammy gets much more excited and barks quietly two times, as if he understands the speech.       “But I can’t…” Peter pronounces in a shaking voice. “I can’t… I made the promise. And I can’t betray my girlfriend. I can’t betray the guys. To whom I promised to hold on. I can’t put the band’s work in danger. Those people saved me, and I can’t make them regret spending their time on me. Spending time on the worthless idiot that… That still can’t become a man and sometimes wants to take a blade and cut himself to the fuck.”       Sammy snuggles his nose in Peter’s face with whines full of pity, and licks his cheek, while the man scratches his hair and presses him to himself.       “Damn, the situation of Helene…” Peter sighs heavily. “How do I help her, buddy? I don’t wanna and can’t leave her! Even if I feel the pain when she screams and beats me for nothing. Blames for what I didn’t do. Feels free to insult me. Did I deserve it, Sammy? Have I been a bad boyfriend to her? I understand her feelings, but I feel hurt, you know… Her behavior makes me leave her alone. Let her solve her problems on her own. She doesn’t wanna accept my help. Though, you know I’ve always wished your owner the best. Helene needs me, but I’m afraid I can’t help her. Because she doesn’t want it. Yes… I said I was ready to become her victim, so she established her relationship with her grandmother. But it seems like it wouldn’t lead to any results. I wouldn’t at least reconcile them.”       Sammy barks quietly, wagging his tail slightly.       “Ah, Sammy…” Peter shakes his head and sniffs quietly. “I can’t do it… I’m on edge… It all strikes me down. I’m afraid I won’t bear it all. And I’ll wish to die as well as I almost did it somehow. Yes, buddy… I wanted to die. At my wish. When you weren’t born. And despite my disgusting behavior, my friends saved me. Nobody left me. Even Jessica, whom I kicked as well as Helene just kicked me outta her room. They were all by my side. Even if I was an egoistic bastard, who fought with everybody to the fuck. I didn’t want it… At all… And… Even if they forgave me, I still feel terrible when I think about that time.”       Peter closes his eyes for a second, understanding how strongly his body is shaking.       “You know, I think I’d rather give up on trying to talk to Helene,” Peter says thoughtfully. “It won’t change my wish to be with her, but now we better leave her alone. If she doesn’t wanna see us, it will happen. We will all be by her side. Always. Maybe, it’s better for her. She’ll stay alone and calm down… And come to us someday. So, you and I will just wait.”       Peter scratches Sammy’s neck and smiles kind of falsely.       “And while Helene doesn’t wanna take care of you, I will do it,” Peter promises with sadness in his eyes. “Don’t worry, Sammy, I won’t leave you. I’ll be feeding you, walking, playing, and taking care of you…”       Sammy does not make any sounds and just looks at Peter with sadness in his eyes.       “Don’t worry about me, I will bear it. I’ll do my best to brace myself and hold on. For those I love and owe. I’m gonna think of the love that’s living inside me. The love for your owner.”       Peter says nothing for two seconds and looks at Sammy with wet eyes.       “I love her, Sammy,” Peter confesses with sadness in his eyes. “You can’t even imagine how much. I don’t have such rich experience in relationships, and have loved only twice in my life. But I just realized that my first love wasn’t so strong. Everything is otherwise about Helene. I love her so much that I can’t imagine my life without her. Seriously, buddy, if I didn’t have your owner, I’d lose the meaning of life. I’d have no reason to live. Nobody.”       Peter smiles a little wider, looking at Sammy and petting his head softly.       “Only the one you’re so jealous of can breathe into me,” Peter adds. “Make me feel alive. She’s a bright shoot of the sun in my worthless life.”       Sammy inclines his head as if he feels ashamed of Peter, raises his paw, and snuggles his head into the man’s chest.       “Relax, puffy, I ain’t mad at you,” Peter says quietly. “I can’t be mad at such a wonderful doggy. That is helping me not go crazy.”       Sammy barks quietly, making Peter smile shyly.       “Really, Sammy, thank you so much…” Peter thanks truly. “Maybe, you can’t answer, but I know you’re sorry and wanna help me. And you understand what people say.”       Sammy barks confidently again and presses himself closely to Peter, who hugs him tighter. The dog accepts it with pleasure, putting his head on the man’s shoulder and letting him pet him, being ready to keep being a pillow for the man, who keeps shaking and wiping the tears under his red eyes.       

***

      Edward and Natalia are walking in a very beautiful and quiet place where there is nobody around. They hold each other’s hands for some time, but later the girl puts her arms around the man's waist and puts her head on his shoulder, while he tenderly hugs her around the shoulders and caresses them at times.       “Finally, we’ve gone out to walk,” Natalia says with a slight smile. “We’ve been so busy with our friends’ problems that we don’t have time for each other.”       “But it doesn’t mean I forget about you,” Edward replies in a nice voice and kisses Natalia cutely on the temple. “Even if the lads and I were talking about what to do, I always thought of you and missed you so much.”       “Did you solve something?”       “Alas, nothing yet.”       “Sorry. I’m madly missing your performances. The way you sing. Maybe, you perform some songs for me?”       “With great pleasure, sweetheart. For you, I can even have a full show.”       “It would be good!”       “Okay, I’ll think about it. Moreover, I miss music, too…”       “Can’t you wait to start performing again?”       “At least just to sing. I don’t even have time to take my guitar and just play in my room because of the problems. I played a little some time ago when Terrence visited Father and Mother. They asked to play, but we never refuse to make this wish come true.”       “And how long ago did you play for you?”       “Long ago.”       “Oh, my gosh…” Natalia sighs quietly. “Problems, problems, problems…”       “Yeah,” Edward agrees. “We got them when we didn’t expect.”       “And from whom we didn’t expect.”       “Hey, is there some news about Anna?”       “Nope, we don’t know where she is…” Natalia shakes her head with sadness in her eyes. “And Anna doesn’t wanna talk to us. We text and call her, but she ignores us.”       “Yeah… What a twist…”       “And there’s something that makes the girls and me worried.”       “What?”       “First, I wanna ask you… Do you know the girl named Blanca? Or does one of the guys know her?”       “Blanca? Who’s Blanca?”       “I don’t know. But maybe, one of you knows?”       “No, I’ve never met anyone with this name.”       “And doesn’t a girl with this name work with your band?”       “One girl worked with us, but she was Bianca. Not Blanca.”       “Oh… I see.”       “Hey, why’d you ask?” Edward frowns slightly, glancing at Natalia.       “It’s about Daniel,” Natalia confesses. “Two days ago, he went to Raquelle and Terrence’s home.”       “Daniel was at their home?”       “Yup, he wanted to talk to your brother, but he wasn’t there ‘cause he went to your parents. So, the girls and I talked to him and found out what he remembered.”       “And what does someone named Blanca have to do with it?”       “At some moment, Daniel started to ask the girls and me about our feelings for the lads and something like that. And he started to talk about a certain Blanca. Blanca Moreno.”       “Blanca Moreno? How did she come up?”       “I dunno, but Perkins is sure that his girlfriend’s name is Blanca. And they’re not just dating. They are kinda gonna get married.”       “Married?” Edward rounds his eyes immediately and looks at Natalia amazingly. “What kind of stupidity, Natalia!”       “But that’s true, Edward,” Natalia shrugs. “Raquelle, Helene, and I started to tell Daniel about Anna and said she was his girlfriend, but he started to talk about Blanca.”       “My gosh…”       “Perkins said he had spoken to her since he left the hospital. He meets her and us. She’s kinda also helping him recall everything.”       “It can’t be the truth! How did that Blanca come up? Where did Perkins meet her?”       “I dunno, honey,” Natalia shakes her head. “But that’s Daniel’s words. Ask him if you want it.”       “How does that Blanca look?”       “She’s kinda a short girl with dark hair and eyes. Thick and snub-nosed.”       “Thick, short, and snub-nosed?” Edward asks surprisingly. “I don’t know anyone to fit this description!”       “The girls and I, too. Daniel was sure we knew something about her. But we heard the name of that madam for the first time.”       “Maybe, he dreamed it up? What if Dan just read something or heard someone?”       “Daniel says he didn’t dream up that girl. And he’s absolutely sure she’s his fiancée.”       “No, that’s kind of bullshit! He is dating Anna! And he isn’t even gonna propose to her!”       “Maybe, this is the consequence of amnesia? For example, a compulsion for something that has never happened?”       “I don’t know, Natalia, I don’t… But your words got me suspicious…”       “If only he didn’t hook up with that Blanca. Or it happens that Perkins betrays Anna.”       “It seems like he did it if he believes she’s his fiancée.”       “Or a fan found out what happened and used it?”       “Anything’s possible. Anyway, I don’t like it all.”       Silence settles in the air for two seconds, during which Edward and Natalia think about something.       “By the way, did he say something about Anna?” Edward frowns slightly.       “At first, he barely recalled a red-haired girl that was at the hospital two times, and then he only said she’s beautiful, and he’d kiss her,” Natalia replies quietly.       “That’s all?”       “Yup. But he asked us why Seymour didn’t speak to him. So, the girls and I told him the truth about her disappearance.”       “Oh, Anna, Anna…” Edward puts his hand on his forehead and runs it over his face. “What was your friend thinking about?”       “I don’t know, either…” Natalia sighs quietly. “Daniel has always been such a good guy. He took care of her, made her wishes come true, and treated her like a queen… What else did the girl need?”       “You know, Terrence and I talked about that after our parents went for their business. And we assumed that they could fight, and Daniel wanted to calm down and leave home.”       “Fight?”       “Yup. Probably, strongly.”       “So, do you and Terrence think Daniel and Anna weren’t together on that day? Or they were, but fought later?”       “Sort of.”       “Well…” Natalia slightly bites her lip. “Maybe, only on the day when Dan lost his memory. We had spent time together before, and those two got on well.”       “Who knows… But there is another reason to worry.”       “Another?”       “Yes. Now we’re much more worried because of the bullying that our own fans started against Daniel.”       “What?” Natalia wonders loudly, rounding her eyes. “Bullying? What are you talking about, Edward?”       “Didn’t you know? Didn’t you read what people said about it on the Internet?”       “I had no time. And what do they say?”       “Someone spread the rumor that Daniel allegedly brought Peter to the suicide commit, beat him constantly, put him to any kind of violence, and even threatened to kill him if someone knew about their scandal.”       “C’mon! Are you serious?”       “And the worst thing is that people believed that bullshit and started to bully Dan, sending him wishes of death, cursing him, and mocking him cruelly. Everyone’s attacking the accounts of the lads and me with a plea to kick him outta the band. Everybody is literally praising Peter and blaming Terrence and me for being allegedly silent and pretending that everything is fine by the order of our managers.”       “Oh, damn…” Natalia shakes her head and closes her mouth with a hand. “Who posted that bullshit? Why did they the hell make Daniel a monster?”       “I don’t know, Natalia… Terrence and I read that article after the talk about Anna and Daniel. And we were shocked by what they posted. By what people sent to the poor Perkins. They do openly bully him and would eat him if they met him outside.”       “But we know it’s not true,” Natalia says confidently. “Daniel has never bullied Peter! Just because they fought doesn’t mean Perkins treated Rose like that.”       “Yeah, but we can’t help him now. George recommended that we keep silent because nobody will believe us. Everybody’s kinda excited now. And… Proving something doesn’t make sense.”       “Are you gonna quietly watch them wish Daniel to die?”       “We have to, Natalia. I’m personally, madly resented by this injustice, but everything is worthless yet.”       “What did people think about when believing this bullshit?” Natalia resents. “How many times has the media spread false rumors about celebrities! And they do believe it like naive idiots! Just like in the case of Raquelle when Simon Ringer decided to humiliate her! At first, everybody insulted her and called her a whore that got her fame through the bed, but then they started to praise her again.”       “They aren’t real fans of us,” Edward replies quietly. “Real fans love all of us in the same way and don’t insult us. Or they love one but respect another. If many people love Pete, it doesn’t mean they should insult and humiliate Dan. Moreover, he’s guilty of nothing.”       “But what you and the lads are gonna do? You must stop it! And make Daniel sure that it’s a lie if he believes in it as well as he believed that he had a fiancée named Blanca Moreno!”       “A little later, Peter wants to refute this rumor. He’s also resented ‘cause he knows what really happened much better.”       “I hope it all will be over soon. Daniel doesn’t deserve it.”       “I also hope those people will realize that everything written in that article is an insolent lie. And I actually want people to stop believing those, who post similar things and don’t prove them.”       “Many celebrities suffer from false rumors. You and the guys aren’t the first ones.”       “I know. But what they blame our friend for is disgusting.”       “I agree…”       Natalia sighs with sadness in her eyes, looking into the distance. And Edward moves his eyes to her and kisses her on the cheek tenderly, hugging her by the waist.       “Okay, sweetie, let’s not talk about it now,” Edward says softly with a slight smile. “I’m starting to go crazy.”       “Me too…” Natalia replies thoughtfully.       “So, let’s talk about something good,” Edward thinks for two seconds and smiles much wider. “For example, us… About us getting married soon.”       “M-m-m, my parents are getting ready for our wedding,” Natalia smiles mysteriously. “They literally wait for it more than me.”       “Mine, too. They often ask me something, but I have nothing to say ‘cause our preparation is in the stage of discussing.”       “They’re now talking about the wedding and then will dream of grandchildren.”       “My father and mother have talked about it for a long time,” Edward smiles shyly. “Mother especially wants Terrence and me to have babies as soon as possible.”       “I know. But I think they got a lesson when your brother and my friend almost broke up. They realized that they shouldn’t have rushed. That a person wouldn’t be happy if they did something against their wish to make others happy.”       “No, no, they don’t insist. But Mom loves reminding that she hopes to see her grandchildren.”       “I think Terrence and Raquelle are ready to raise a child,” Natalia assumes with a slight smile. “But it happens that they have no time to think about it.”       “Father always says they’ll become parents when they want it. He also wants grandchildren, but he doesn’t insist, unlike Mother.”       “I get it…” Natalia smiles shyly, while Edward cutely kisses her on the temple, and puts her hand on his chest. “Who do you think your parents want: a grandson or a granddaughter?”       “Father says gender doesn’t matter to him. And Mother doesn’t care who is born. But they definitely wanna babysit a girl. However, knowing that only boys have been born in the last few generations of the MacClifes, I think the next baby would be a boy.”       “Who knows, Edward…”       “Even if a family had a few children, everybody had only brothers. I’ve got three, Father has one, my great-grandmother and great-grandfather had three sons… And next.”       “Something tells me Terrence and Raquelle are gonna have two babies or even more.”       “Anyway, they have no reason to worry, ‘cause they’ve got the helpers and can give their children everything. Terrence and Raquelle don’t live as my parents did, somehow.”       “Oh yeah, they have very many helpers! For example, you, the uncle of their future babies…” Natalia slightly pushes Edward on the rib with a shy laugh. “Huh, MacClife! You’re ready to educate your nephews and nieces?”       “I’d babysit my nephews and nieces with pleasure,” Edward replies confidently with a shy smile. “That’s gonna be a wonderful experience for me.”       “I’m sure you’re gonna be a good uncle and a perfect father. You’re so caring and careful.”       “How can I not take care of my beloved baby?”       Edward caresses the back of Natalia’s head and kisses her on the temple, making her smile shyly. Two seconds later, the girl hugs the man tighter and presses herself against him while he holds her with both arms on the go, fixes her hair, and caresses her head. They walk silently for some time and just enjoy each other's company. But some time later, the lovers come to the hill on the edge, from which there is a perfect view of the whole city.       “Sit?” Natalia suggests shyly.       “Yup,” Edward agrees confidently.       After taking each other’s hand with a slight smile, Edward and Natalia come to the hill. The man grabs the girl by the hips, lifts her up, and seats her on the one, clambers up easily, sits next to his sweetheart, and tenderly kisses her on the cheek. Then the blonde cutely rubs the tip of her nose against his nose. He takes her hand and starts to caress her wrist, while she puts her head on his shoulder and presses herself closer to her fiancé. The young people watch the incredible view of the city for a few seconds. The panorama is really impressive and breathtaking, and a nice wind blows up hair and clothes. The air seems kind of amazing. There is a wish to breathe it in over and over. Somewhere far from here, there are high mountains that are covered with green grass and reach the bright blue sky and white puffy clouds. There are many different trees in some areas, and a thin, beautifully bent river with crystal-clean water is seen down. The hands do want to grab a mobile phone and take a few wonderful shots. But the lovers do not spend time on it and choose to enjoy the pretense of each other and appreciate every single moment spent together.       At some moment, Edward moves his eyes to Natalia looking into the distance, smiles shyly, and runs his hand over her hair. Then the girl gives her beloved man a tender kiss on the cheek.       “Edward, sweetheart…” Natalia pronounces in a soft, low voice, not hiding her wide smile.       “I can’t hold down my wish to say you look stunning again,” Edward replies with admiration in his eyes and moves a strand of Natalia’s hair off her eyes. “My gorgeous blue-eyed beauty…”       “Your touches do relax and calm me down… And I literally forget what we talked about a few minutes ago.”       “We talked about us.” Edward takes Natalia’s long earring with turquoise stones, looks at it for some time, and tenderly caresses her ear with his fingertips. “About me not being able to wait for us to finally live together.”       “Me too. But I must confess that I’m a little nervous. I’ll have to leave my home, but I’m so used to that…”       “I promise I’ll do my best for that time to be good,” Edward promises in a low and deep whisper, caressing Natalia’s head tenderly, running his fingertips over the skin on it, and making her feel the slight, nice shake.       “I know, sweetheart.”       “You can’t imagine how much I want to sleep and press you to myself… Protect my little girl even in sleep.”       “From nightmares?” Natalia, hugging Edward around his shoulders, rubs the tip of her nose against his nose slowly and tenderly, and gives him a short kiss on his lips, after which she does not step away from his face and examines it.       “Sure,” Edward pronounces in a low voice. “I don’t want my baby to get attacked with nightmares that would scare her.”       “Do you think i’ll see nightmares with you by my side?”       “I’ll do everything for you to never see them.”       “I can’t wait…” Natalia sighs with a slight smile, putting her hand on Edward’s knee. “Sleeping in your shirt is not as enjoyable as sleeping next to you, in your arms.”       “Soon, sweetheart, soon,” Edward promises and slowly runs the back of his hand over Natalia’s cheek.       “Aw, my tiger…”       With these words, Natalia caresses Edward’s cheek tenderly, while he looks at her with a slight smile, caresses her head, and runs his fingers through her blonde hair beautifully falling off her naked shoulders.       “My beauty…” Edward pronounces with admiration, while his eyes examine Natalia closely and notice how her pupils are dilated. “Beauty…”       “Said by the pretty boy,” Natalia purrs, looking into Edward’s eyes with a wide smile while the tip of her nose slightly touches the man’s nose.       “You can’t even imagine how much I was waiting for this moment. To kiss and hug you as much as I want. It does help me get rid of tension… And forget we’ve got tons of problems.”       “Don’t think about it, Edward,” Natalia pronounces in a low voice, runs her hand over Edward’s soft hair, moves a little strand off his eyes, and caresses his lips with two fingers tenderly. “Better kiss me. To drive me crazy.”       Edward smiles widely but decides not to rush and to enjoy this moment for as long as possible. Natalia and he just look into each other’s eyes for a few seconds, not being able to resist the irresistible affection caused by the short distance and the special smell that their warm bodies spread. Then Edward breaks this long expectation and takes everything under his control, moving Natalia’s hair off her face and shoulders and leaving a few slow and short kisses on her cheeks and the corners of her mouth. That’s why she feels that her heart stops, and her dizziness gets stronger. Seeing her positive reaction, the man gives the girl a longer, more tender, and more exciting kiss, to which she answers powerlessly.       “You’re so gorgeous…” Edward pronounces with enjoyment in a low voice and leaves a kiss on every single part of Natalia’s face and the areas behind her ears that he also caresses with his lips. “Smell freaking attractive…”       “You can drive me crazy…” Natalia exhales sensually and smiles shyly, feeling a slight shake in her body. “Oh… Oh, my God…”       “This is just the beginning, baby. Soon, you’ll know everything I can do.” Edward runs his fingers through Natalia’s hair. “What I can do when I have such a sexual and attractive beauty by my side.”       Natalia makes a quiet moan and tries to take control of the situation. But Edward stops her immediately, putting his finger on her lips.       “Sh-h-h…” Edward whispers with a sly smile. “Quiet, my little girl, quiet. Don’t rush.”       “You’re gonna kill me slowly again?” Natalia asks.       “I’m gonna give you pleasure slowly.” Edward runs his lips over the edge of Natalia’s ear, slightly touches her earlobe, breathes on the area behind it with hot air, and kisses it tenderly. “Of course, I can’t wait to break free, but I wanna play some time. And make sure you don’t wanna run away from me when I say I want you.”       “Have I ever run away?”       “You’ve been a rebel and resisted many times.”       “Get used, honey. You know how they say: nothing worth doing is easy.”       “And in your case, I don’t like finding easy ways. I prefer long and complicated ones. It gets me too excited.”       Edward kisses Natalia on the lips again, but applies a little more pressure and expands the zone of caress. He caresses her face, her head, her shoulders as well as the curves of her waist. Reaches for her thighs, and caresses her laps and the area between her legs with pleasure. A sly chuckle shows up on his face when hearing the girl’s quiet moan full of pleasure. While she feels absolutely relaxed and calm in the arms of this man, who seems so strong and confident and doubts nothing when he is next to such a stunning beauty.       “Oh, MacClife, what are you doing?” Natalia laughs shyly.       “What I want,” Edward smiles innocently, gives Natalia a tender kiss on the lips, and steps back from her slowly. “What would help me give you pleasure.”       “Being with you is already a pleasure for me.”       “I know. But I want you to get much more.”       When Edward wants to go further and kiss Natalia on her neck, she softly closes his lips with her hand and puts another hand on his chest, and looks into his eyes with a sly smile, wishing to tease him a little. Later, the girl runs her hand through his soft black hair, strokes it for two seconds, wraps it around her fingers, squeezes it, and pulls it tenderly. The man smiles shyly, taking his breath away and understanding that his heart stops, and feels the warmth of the hand of his beloved beauty, who puts it on his cheek and caresses it with slow movements.       “Sweetheart…” Natalia whispers in a very seductive way and slowly caresses Edward’s lips with her lips, squeezing his hair on the back of his head slightly. “Edward…”       “You decided to kill me slowly?” Edward laughs shyly, feeling that Natalia’s tender whisper echoes briefly in his chest and makes him feel goosebumps on his skin.       “Not at all. I just wanna do something nice for you.”       Seeing that Edward is looking at her like a loyal doggy, and his pupils got dilated, Natalia sharply kisses him on the lips with a sly smile, holding the man by the chin and acting so passionately as if she is on the edge. But two seconds later, Natalia slightly pushes him off herself and looks into his eyes closely. While the overwhelmed Edward looks at her questioningly, breathing a little heavily and understanding how fast his heart is beating.       “And what was it?” Edward wonders.       “It’s called, ‘I wanna play a little,’” Natalia replies in a velvet voice with an innocent smile. “Tease my lion…”       “Weren’t you taught that you must not provoke lions, tigers, and any other animal?”       “I was,” Natalia pronounces playfully. “But I’m not afraid.”       “Not afraid?”       “There is one special tiger.” Natalia puts her hand on Edward’s knee and then moves it to the area between his legs, barely touching his lips with her lips and caressing them tenderly when she starts whispering in a seductive way. “To whom I’d give myself at my wish.”       Natalia grabs Edward by the white t-shirt, presses him to herself, pulls his lips with sensual moans, and bites them tenderly, doing everything very determinedly and not doubting any of her actions. At some moment, she puts one hand on his breast, through which she can feel his fast heartbeat, and runs another through her hair on the top of her head at the roots. And when she gets a couple of quiet moans from him, the girl steps back from him again and caresses his cheeks with an innocent smile.       “So, are you a brave girl?” Edward smiles mysteriously and tenderly runs the back of his hand over the curve of Natalia’s neck.       “I fear nothing with you,” Natalia says with her head proudly raised.       “That’s how…” Edward caresses the inside of Natalia’s thigh with another hand, while she feels how a nice burning is getting stronger in her abdomen. “Aren’t you afraid your tiger might be very assertive if you didn’t stop provoking the one?”       “If you do it, I won’t resist.” Natalia tenderly kisses Edward on the cheek. “You can do anything.”       “Anything?”       “Anything you want.” Natalia purrs, runs her lips over the area behind Edward’s ear, and decides to whisper something in it. “You can take me… Right here… Why do we contain ourselves when you’re hard, and my knickers are wet?”       Because of these words, Edward gets a bright fire in his eyes and a smug smile on his face. The man looks into the eyes of the girl closely for two seconds, then sharply grabs her face and kisses her on the lips hotly, starting to use his tongue without a doubt, with which he slowly slides over her palate and around her tongue. The blonde answers it with pleasure and runs her hand through his hair, holding the nape of the man’s neck, into which she sinks her nails tenderly.       “Natalia, my sweetheart…” Edward pronounces with enjoyment, slowly runs his lips over the curve of her neck, and leaves a few kisses on it while one hand of him holds another curve, and a second hand slides over her flat, partly open belly and tenderly holds the big breast from the down.       “Oh, God…” Natalia pronounces with closed eyes and a sensual moan, breathing heavily enough and feeling the tension in every single muscle of her body.       “I know, girl…” Edward tenderly pinches the skin on Natalia’s neck and bites it slightly. “I know I’m imitable. It’s impossible to resist my caresses.”       “Please, Edward…” Natalia leans her head back with a quiet sigh and feels a strong shake when Edward leaves a short kiss on the most sensitive area on the front of her neck. “Ah…”       “Quiet, baby, quiet,” Edward says in a low and soft voice and slowly runs his lips over the front of Natalia’s neck, while his hands start to caress her breasts more confidently, with pressure. “Relax, don’t be so tense.”       “A-a-a, damn, don’t mock me!”       “No, beauty, I’m not mocking, I’m giving pleasure.” Edward steps back from Natalia and caresses her face slowly and tenderly while she is breathing heavily enough and looking into his eyes closely like charmed. “I’m not the one to blame that you’re so sensitive to my caresses. Or… Maybe… Mine! I’m very attractive and sexual… Nobody can compete with me!”       “So, let’s exchange our roles, so I do something for you to go insane,” Natalia suggests in a low voice, caressing Edward’s cheeks and moving one of her hands to the nape of his neck that she also caresses. “So, it gets much stronger in your pants…”       “I’m already going crazy…” Edward pronounces in a low, velvet voice while Natalia puts her arm around his neck and runs her hand over his hair with and against the grain. “From your smell… From your look… From your caresses… From just one look of you…”       “Try to hold yourself down,” Natalia snuggles her nose in Edward’s cheek and runs it over it tenderly, sometimes touching it with her eyelashes. “While I’m gonna kiss and caress you.”       “You’re serious?”       “Absolutely.”       Natalia softly grabs Edward’s face and gives him a tender but assertive kiss on the lips, to which he answers with pleasure, running his hand over the curve of her waist, her thigh, and her lap. The girl moans quietly sometimes and caresses the man’s mouth with her tongue madly, skillfully, looking for the most sensitive areas, and he answers her back with pleasure. A little later, she breaks the kiss with a heavy breath, bites his earlobe very tenderly, and leaves a short kiss on the area behind it while he enjoys it with a blissful smile.       “Oh, yay, girl, you know what I love…” Edward purrs with enjoyment.       “I know…” Natalia pronounces with a wide smile with a quiet, low voice and runs the tip of her tongue over the area behind Edward’s ear. “I know…”       “Keep doing, dolly, keep doing…” Edward puts his hand between Natalia’s thighs. “Yea-a-ah…”       “I wanna eat you…” Natalia leaves a few tender but exciting kisses on the curve of Edward’s neck, holding the back of his head. “M-m-m…”       “Oh, how it’s good…” Edward exhales sharply with closed eyes, feeling a slight shake in his body and breathing heavily enough.       “Damn, you used that perfume again…” Natalia pronounces in a low voice with a quiet moan, smelling the skin on Edward’s neck and feeling a little dizzy because of the mix of the smells of musk, patchouli, and sandalwood. “Oh…”       “I like it. And you go crazy from it.”       “Sly fox!” Natalia leaves a couple of kisses on the curve of Edward’s neck and pinches the skin on it slightly. “Very sly…”       “Are you not?” Edward looks at Natalia from head to foot, noticing how good she looks in a white slim, tight crop top with a deep sweetheart neck that raises her breasts well, light blue high-waisted shorts that show her slim, long legs, a thin belt, and white sneakers. “You’re fluent in seducing men and driving them crazy with the way you dress up.”       “I just think of you when choosing clothes,” Natalia smiles shyly and, looking into Edward’s eyes playfully, runs her fingertips slowly over her breasts and the curve of her neck that she shows on purpose.       “That’s why I feel incredibly proud when walking with you,” Edward replies confidently and tenderly caresses Natalia’s lap, looking at her with a tender smile. “And tell people about you…”       “Sweetheart…” Natalia slowly runs her hand over Edward’s cheek and caresses his head. “Tu el mi locura, mi delirio y mi tranquilidad. Yo pongo en tus manos mi destino, porque vivo para estar siempre contigo.”       Edward smiles widely, understanding the meaning of Natalia’s words. He gives the girl a short, very tender kiss on her lips, nicely rubs the tip of his nose against hers, and examines her face with his half-closed ones, paying attention to the blonde’s incredibly beautiful blue sky eyes that are expressed thanks to the perfect makeup made of light pink and brown shades.       “Has llenado con tu luz cada rincón el mi corazon,” Edward replies with a deep, very nice voice. “Y mi alma siente diferente, mi amor.”       “Oh, eso es tan dulce”       “No, tu eres dulce.”       Natalia smiles much wider and caresses Edward’s cheek with both hands, while he shows his tender smile and makes the girl’s heart tremble nicely. The lovers look into each other’s eyes for some time, being at a short distance and sometimes fixing each other’s hair or just caressing each other’s cheek. A little later, they slowly connect their lips and start a tender kiss, while the light wind caresses their faces nicely and blows up their hair. Two moments later, the man puts an arm around the girl’s neck, presses her to herself, and tenderly grabs her chin. And a little later, he grabs her by the neck, while the blonde puts one hand on his chest, puts another on his shoulder, and caresses it tenderly.       Their kiss slowly gets deeper and more sensual. The blood is boiling in their veins, the breath gets heavier, the whole body gets caressed by the nice shake, the heart is beating much faster, and its beat echoes in their heads. At some moment, Edward softly breaks the kiss with Natalia and starts to bite the skin on the curve of her neck or cover it with slight and amazingly tender kisses or more assertive and passionate ones. While the girl moans from pleasure and rolls or closes her eyes, having her arm wrapped around his neck that she kisses and bites at some moment, and caressing his shoulders, forearms, disheveled hair, tough chest, or stomach with a tough-to-touch six-pack.       “Oh, God, Edward…” Natalia sighs sensually, slightly sinking her nails into the nape of Edward’s neck, while one hand of his slides underneath her crop top and caresses her naked back, and another tenderly massages her breasts, which he covers with exciting kisses. “Ah…”       “Damn, you smell so good,” Edward purrs with enjoyment and a wide smile and, breathing in the smell that her skin spreads, slowly runs his lips over Natalia’s collarbones, while one hand of him tenderly caresses her belly. “You’re so sweet… I do wanna eat you…”       “You can try,” Natalia moves her hands to Edward’s abdomen, confidently gets it underneath his t-shirt, and caresses his stomach, shaking slightly after every single touch of it. “If I don’t eat you earlier.”       “Oh, yeah, babe, eat me!” Edward squeezes Natalia’s breasts with strong pressure and stimulates her nipples with his thumb. “Eat…”       When Natalia moans loudly and sensually, Edward leaves a few kisses and slight pinches on her neck, letting his hand caress her laps and thighs, between which he feels a strong heat, and slide over her belly to her breasts and collarbones. The girl bends her back with sensual moans and instinctively aims to press herself very close to her beloved man, who is the reason why her body is probably much more sensitive than ever.       “My girl,” Edward pronounces with a wide smile and, holding Natalia’s face with both hands with a heavy enough breath, leaves a kiss on every single part of it. “My baby…”       Two seconds later, Edward gives Natalia a tender, continuous kiss on the lip, during which she lets her hands slide over his torso confidently and runs her fingers through the soft man’s hair. But later, he decides to catch his breath and steps back from the blonde slowly. The lovers try to catch their breath, feeling that their cheeks are burning because of the slight blush, and looking at each other with eyes full of bright gloss and a wish to live.       “You’re imitable, my tiger,” Natalia confesses with a wide smile and puts her hand on her heart, which is beating like crazy. “I got another one-minute heart attack.”       “As I said, this is not everything I can do,” Edward replies with pride and caresses Natalia’s cheek tenderly. “You’ll know everything soon.”       “Oh, my gosh…” Natalia waves a hand at her with a slight smile and her eyes rolled.       “You won’t be disappointed, I promise. I’ve always known how to treat girls and know how to bring them to the top of the world.”       “I wanna feel it all as soon as possible.”       Silence settles in the air for a few seconds during which the lovers do not stop looking at each other with a wide smile. A little later, Edward embraces Natalia, presses her to himself, puts his arm around her neck, puts his free hand on her lap, and kisses her on the cheek and her naked shoulder. At some moment, the man moves his eyes to her favorite necklace with the gilded letter “N”, which was his gift on her last birthday. The brunet takes the gilt letter that is covered with sparkles and shines at the daylight carefully and looks at it, while the girl’s head rests on his shoulder.       “It always reminds me of you when we aren’t together,” Natalia says with a slight smile.       “I know…” Edward says thoughtfully with a slight smile. “I’m sorry that I have nothing that would remind me of you when you’re far away.”       “I promise to think about it and find something that would remind you of me.”       Edward smiles shyly and nicely kisses Natalia’s cheek, letting the letter go, and puts his hand on her collarbones for two seconds, while she runs her fingers through his hair.       “Don’t you wanna walk here?” Edward asks.       “I’d go anywhere with you,” Natalia replies confidently.       Edward smiles shyly, sits for two seconds, gets up on his feet slowly, and carefully jumps down from the hill, on which he was sitting. Then the man carefully picks Natalia in his arms, places her on the ground, and does not refuse to leave a couple of kisses on her neck and run his hands over the curves of her slim waist.       “You wanna drive me crazy again?” Natalia laughs shyly.       “I’m not guilty of you getting me attracted like a magnet,” Edward purrs with a wide smile, holding Natalia by the curves of her waist for two seconds, moving his hands slowly to her thighs, and squeezing her buttocks tenderly.       “You know, pretty boy, you also drive me crazy.” Natalia shyly grabs Edward by the edge of his t-shirt with a heavy breath, pulls it slightly, runs her hands underneath it, and slowly runs them over his torso. “Especially when you look so confident.”       “Thanks to you, sweetheart.”       “Maybe… Maybe…”       Natalia turns her back on Edward with a mysterious smile and, shaking her thighs, goes two steps back from him. He runs to her quickly from behind, softly grabs her by the throat with one hand, caresses the front of it with his fingertips, and starts to slide another hand over her flat belly and thigh.       “And I’m madly grateful to you for that…” Edward pronounces in a low, velvet voice, leaves a kiss on the front of Natalia’s neck, and tenderly runs his lips over the area behind her ear that gets some caress. “And I’m ready to thank you generously…”       “You did it a long time ago…” Natalia exhales quietly, breathing heavily enough and feeling that her abdomen is very tense, and a nice warmth somewhere in her crotch.       “And I keep doing it.”       Edward softly leans Natalia’s head back and leaves a few kisses on the front of her neck, while his hands slide over her belly and caress her breasts confidently.       “Oh, okay, MacClife, stop,” Natalia says in a little hoarse voice. “MacClife! We won’t leave ‘till the evening.”       “Do we have to rush?” Edward wonders, gives Natalia an assertive kiss on the lips, and runs his tongue over her palate, holding the girl by the throat and putting his free hand on her abdomen. “Besides, a girl like you must get a lot of attention. Very much…”       “Just like a guy like you.” Natalia turns on Edward and covers the curve of his neck with tender kisses, holding him by the head with both hands and hearing his loud, heavy breath. “You’re freaking sexy.”       “I know, babe. I am.”       “But I think we should take a little break.” Natalia steps back from Edward and looks into his eyes with an innocent smile. “And just walk here.”       “But…”       “C’mon, Edward, let’s go!”       With these words, Natalia turns her back on Edward and steps far from him, deciding to tease him with her attractive walk and the view of her gorgeous body. The man looks at her for two seconds with a wide smile on his face and admiration in his eyes, catches the girl quickly, and follows her. The lovers take each other’s hand, share a tender look, and go somewhere slowly, enjoying the beauty of these places where there is nobody.       Edward and Natalia cannot even imagine that something bad might happen to them. But the lovers do not suspect that someone is watching them, hiding behind the bushes and wide trunks of high trees. He carefully follows them, as if they are getting ready to show up suddenly and scare them. And at some moment, the chaser slows down, leaves a bush, comes to Natalia and Edward suspecting nothing, pushes the girl in the back strongly, and hides shortly. She sharply steps up, shakes slightly, and falls on her knees, and the man does not pick the girl up in time.       “Natalia!” Edward pronounces with anxiety, bends to Natalia, and helps her stand on her feet, holding her by the waist and hand. “You’re okay?”       “I think so,” Natalia replies, looking at herself and shaking something off her knees. “I just fell on my knees…”       “Didn’t you watch out?”       “No, someone pushed me…”       “Pushed?” Edward looks around quickly but does not see anyone, not suspecting that the man hiding in the bush sneers quietly. “But I see nobody! We’re all alone here!”       “I dunno…” Natalia shakes her head. “But someone pushed me in the back…”       “Maybe, I pushed you accidentally? Talked too much and pushed!”       “C’mon, forget it…” Natalia cracks a smile. “Don’t think about it. Let’s think I just stepped over.”       “You’re sure?”       “Yes, come on.”       Edward shakes his head but keeps going somewhere along with Natalia, whose hand he takes. But a few seconds later, they hear a very rough, madly familiar voice that belongs to the one, who leaves the bush and decides to show themselves.       “Hey, hey!” the man pronounces loudly with a smug sneer.       Edward and Natalia sharply turn on the voice at the same time and, opening their eyes wider, get horrified immediately after seeing the man. The girl getting sharply white shouts quietly and opens her eyes widely, scarily looking at the familiar man with greasy, thin hair, horrifying bright green eyes, a big scar reaching his chin, and dry lips, who is wearing very old, ripped, and dirty clothes.       “Look who I see!” the man throws his hands up. “The little puppy MacClife and the would-be pornstar are walking together in such a wonderful place.”       “Wainwright?” Edward pronounces with dumbfounded eyes. “Eugene Wainwright?”       “As they say, I’m sending a greeting to you.”       “Bloody hell…”       “So, here we go again,” Eugene sneers evilly. “I’ve been watching you since you came here. I see you are walking here, talking nicely, laughing… Holding each other’s hands… Kissing… Almost started to undress… So sorry you did not. I would have been happy to watch this nude chick again. Maybe, I can masturbate a little.”       “Why are you the fuck doing here, bastard?” Edward resents and presses Natalia getting sharply white and paralyzed from fear as close as possible to himself. “You must have been dying in the dirtiest prison cell!”       “Yeah, MacClife, you are still the same naive, brainless kid, who believes that kindness gets a victory over evil,” Eugene shakes his head. “Did you two think you got off me? No! I’m back! And I’m ready to destroy you! Forever!”       “How? How did you the fuck run away from prison? From where you belonged!”       “Super easy,” Eugene smiles innocently. “I used the moment when the staff was distracted and just ran away from that hell. I had examined that place very well. Well, I had to steal a pistol from one of the guards and shoot the bastard, who thought he would catch me. And while those people were busy with him, I got out quickly.”       “Bastard! That’s outrageous! How could they let go of the bastard that must have died a long time ago? How, the fuck?”       “Calm down, baby, don’t choke with your saliva. Or your beloved blonde will stay without protection.”       “Scumbag!” Edward cries with evil. “I will immediately report your escape! Do my best for you to die in prison!”       “Policemen will not catch me. But if they find me, they will get only my corpse. I will not give up while I’m alive.”       “Asshole, I should’ve killed you in the courtroom. If I had known you would the fuck run away from prison! And I would not care about what would happen to me!”       “But it did not happen. First, you are a coward, and second, your fucking older brother was holding you and not letting you beat my face. And your daddy and pals helped you out.” Eugene throws his hands up with a sly smirk. “So, here I am. I met you and this dolly at such a good place. Though I am so sorry that you did not die after that wound. When you decided to sacrifice yourself for your baby.”       “Whatever you want, you will die, bastard,” Edward says rudely. “I did not forget what you did and will revenge on you cruelly.”       “You know, I also ran away for a reason. First, I’m not going to serve a sentence for what I will never regret. I actually never feel sorry. And second, when I was in the courtroom, I said I’d reach this blonde.” Eugene throws a filthy look at Natalia barely holding her tears down. “That’s so bad she is not alone. Or I would have the pleasure of killing her right here and now.”       “Do not make me turn into a monster, Wainwright,” Edward tightly clenches his hands into fists, tensing all the muscles of his body and setting his much more furious look on Eugene. “You know what I will do if you touch her, at least with a finger.”       “I will not kill her immediately. At first, I want to play with her a little. I want to fuck this baby hard. Besides, she still should suck me enough. All these months, I was dreaming of seeing Natalia naked again… Feeling up her big boobs and tough butts… Just like on the day when someone stopped us, sadly.”       The memories immediately get obsessed with Natalia and make her shake and cry quietly, being terribly afraid that Eugene might do the same things to her again. She did not think of what happened to her a few months ago. But the appearance of Wainwright made her feel like a little, unprotected girl in front of this man, who still smells disgustingly and became much wider than before.       “Do not dare to come to her!” Edward gets much more enraged, hugging Natalia tightly and confidently and caressing her head, while she is shaking and crying. “Or you, scumbag, will REALLY regret being born!”       “So, mamma’s boy, are you going to wave your wings like a chicken again?” Eugene sneers contemptuously. “Pretend to be a hero and hide that you are actually a coward?”       “I’m not kidding, Wainwright. I did not kill you then, but now I will do it with great pleasure. Not just beat your dirty, smelly face, but also bring you to DEATH!”       “Yeah…” Eugene looks at Edward from head to foot with contempt. “The puppy has not grown yet… He’s still showing off but looks madly stupid.”       Eugene glances at Natalia.       “But it did not stop your blonde… She got a ring on her finger… Did this idiot get no brains when agreeing to marry you?”       “None of your businesses!”       “Calm down, baby, I don’t care about your relationship status with her. If I liked a chick, I would fuck her and caress her body anyway. A naked body. And I can say your baby has got the best body of those I have ever seen. Resisting is impossible… Ar-r-r… I do wanna take off her clothes and see what’s hidden underneath it again.”       Eugene takes a step forward with a wide and sly smile, and Edward goes back along with Natalia, putting his hand on her head, while she is crying quietly and hugging him as tightly as possible.       “I did say: if you touch her with a finger, you will regret it!” Edward yells rudely and loudly. “DID I EXPLAIN IT UNCLEARLY?”       “It’s alright, puppy, I will quickly deal with you now and then take this blonde with me,” Eugene says confidently. “You got such a strong hit on the head the last time. You passed out. And I got a chance to caress this beauty and get underneath her underwear. Work my fingers in her hole.”       Eugene laughs dirtily.       “Her moans drove me crazy. Nobody else could moan as well as she does. I did want to piss Michael off, undress this cutie, and fuck her hard.”       “Do not even hope!” Edward exclaims. “You will not get closer to her! If I see you near Natalia, I swear you are dead!”       “You will not deal with me. No matter how much you want to protect this beauty, I will take her to where I’m hiding. Where nobody will prevent me from getting an incredible orgasm. Just looking at her makes me feel strong in my pants. My penis wants to get into her ass.”       “NEVER!” Edward screams at the top of his lungs. “YOU WILL DO NOTHING TO HER!”       “Natalia still should do me a blowjob. And she will do it. She will suck me as incredibly as she never did it to you.”       “The police will know about your escape soon. And you WILL BE slowly dying in jail! I WILL DO MY BEST!”       “Don’t be so naive, MacClife,” Eugene replies confidently with a smirk, crossing his arms over his chest. “Of course, we know you’ve never had brains, but do not make yourself a greater idiot.”       “You will not avoid a punishment, YOU WILL NOT DO!”       “Those fucking policemen will never find me. And even your nasty father or hysterical brother will be able to do nothing.”       “WE WILL TRY EVERYTHING! WE HAVE THE CONTACTS! WE WILL CALL EVERYBODY AND GIVE OUR EVERYTHING TO FIND YOU!”       “Keep showing off if you like it. The gal will be mine anyway. She will become my forever slut, with whom I will fuck as much as I want. Laughing at those, who will be trying to find this cutie. Not knowing you will never find her.”       “YOU will never hurt her! Her father will break your neck if you come to her! And I will be happy to help him deal with the freak, who almost ruined her life! Almost brought her TO ANOTHER WORLD!”       “What would her father or mother do to me? That man would send me threatening words that I do not care about or try to hit me. And the woman would be crying hysterically, just like her daughter does. Nobody will stop me! Neither you, they, and your fucking father and brother, nor your pals, who you took to the courtroom.”       “You will pay for what you wanted to do to her and everything you did for my crazy uncle,” Edward throws rudely and coldly, clenching a hand into a fist.       “Ah, yeah… Uncle…” Eugene, looking at Edward contemptuously, sneers and starts walking around before the eyes of him and the white Natalia, who is crying quietly but feeling a little better next to her man but being afraid that her offender would knock her fiancé out and wish to try to rape her again. “You betrayed your uncle Michael, puppy. You put him in prison along with your family and did your best for him to get a life sentence.”       “That old bastard deserved it for ages! He went insane because of jealousy and hate for Father and made his whole family guilty!”       “He would have treated you well if you had not meddled in his business. And you could have had money. A lot of money. You would have been much richer than your fucking brother. Mr. MacClife would have had a pleasure helping you and making you as domineering as he had been before your father, his pal from the police, and your soon-to-be sister-in-law brought the cops with them.”       “Your fucking lord could choke with his money and his poison,” Edward bellows with evil, literally making a hole in Eugene’s head. “Nobody would have felt sorry for that bastard, who was the reason why many innocent people suffered. And how many people could have done if he hadn’t been stopped in time!”       “And you exchanged a chance to be rich and domineering with your fucking family. The family, for which you have always been a reject. Your father and mother only waited for your brother, and you were born accidentally.”       “I do not need his handout! I live well and am happy with my life next to the close people that I love.”       “Yeah… Maybe, your brother did something for you, and you are playing in his band that is loved only by snooty little babies, and writing songs for some second-class artists.”       “What’s your business?”       “Bravo, MacClife, bravo!” Eugene applauds quietly, looking at Edward with contempt. “The brother gave you a chance to feed yourself with money, and you are no longer a fucking deadbeat, who lives off someone. That’s what you think. If you didn’t have such a famous family member with lots of contacts, you’d keep being a homeless beggar.”       “Yeah, did you have a home? You smell even worse than a homeless one does and cannot find good, clean clothes. And you forgot what a tool brush is and how to use it! Even living in the house of my sick uncle Mickey, you did not take care of yourself. Everybody in the courtroom almost choked when you were there!”       “What are you blunting, fucking puppy?” Eugene mocks loudly. “What, what? I don’t hear you! Repeat!”       “You heard everything! I do not want to repeat.”       “It seems like you’ve been much more insolent and pretending to be nobody knows what after your brother gave you a job.”       “I don’t care what you think about me.”       “And it’s amazing that it happened after you almost killed him. After you were keeping him under the pistol before the eyes of this blonde, who made you remember you were a fucking coward and did a heroic thing.”       “He never wanted and will not kill his brother or anyone else!” Natalia hisses through her teeth loudly, looking at Eugene with evil in her eyes. “Whatever people offer!”       “Oh, wow!” Eugene exclaims in a nasty voice, clapping his hands and rounding his eyes. “Look who is speaking! Our sexy cutie barked.”       Eugene looks at Natalia with a sly smile from head to foot, noticing how attractive she looks in her crop top and shorts that show her long, thin legs.       “Yay, babe, you are still good!” Eugene pronounces with enjoyment. “So sorry that you didn’t undress when you were pleasing this puppy and almost started to suck his tin whistle. I wanted to admire your attractive curves. See your big boobs and your naked ass…”       “I said, DO NOT MAKE ME ENRAGED!” Edward screams loudly, pressing Natalia to himself tightly. “YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO LOOK AT HER!”       “I look at whatever I want. And I do not care about your opinion or about whom this dolly is for you. Her body will belong to me anyway.”       “Better get out of here before I get really enraged,” Edward demands coldly. “And remember, Wainwright, if I know you got closer to her or someone from my family, I will kill you. Tear you apart. DESTROY!”       “You know, I would not mind talking to one of the girls, who were in the courtroom…” Eugene says thoughtfully with a sly smile, biting and licking his lips. “Such tempting figures, sweet lips, tough boobs, and tough asses… The fiancée of your brother is a sexy and hot chick. Although she’s thin and does not have as big, gorgeous boobs as her friend does, she has something attractive. What makes me wish to fuck her.”       “Don’t dare to come to my friends!” Natalia threatens rudely, breathing heavily enough. “The men will tear you apart if you do something to them.”       “They will do nothing to me, my baby. I shall give them a chance to wave their hands and knock them out with one or two hits. And the beauties will be unprotected. They will obey me fully.”       “It will not happen! None of them will make your dirty fantasies come true!”       “Oh, blonde, since when have you been so sassy?” Eugene laughs with contempt. “Or are you so sure that this puppy will defend you anyway? You would not be able to deal with me, and you rely on him! The one, who I can call your pathetic fiancé!”       “Edward will not leave me!” Natalia says confidently. “And I will not let anyone hurt me if I have to protect myself!”       “What you’re talking about!” Eugene puts his hands on his hips. “You will be screaming loudly and crying after I strongly hit the insolent, pretty face of MacClife. You will be screaming at the top of your lungs, ‘Wake up, sweetie, wake up! I need you! I love you! Love! Please, don’t die! I love you! I love! Please, don’t die!’ Just like you did when this boy wanted to protect you, but his power was not so strong.”       “You would have died if I had not passed out!” Edward says irritably. “If that idiot Eric, his pales, and you had not been there, your corpse would have been decaying!”       “Maybe, I will have to spend some time on you because you’re like a cat that has nine lives and cannot be killed with a stick. But early or late, you will die. Sorry that it did not happen on that day.”       “Don’t hope!”       “And I will have the pleasure to deal with this gal and do anything I want to her. She will only belong to me. Just like she did when Eric and I sent her to the world of magic dreams to bring her to your uncle without problems. I did have a lot of fun! I caressed her body enough! I am sorry that I did not have time to fuck her. Though, I thought I had a chance when your uncle decided to give her to me.”       “If you don’t shut your dirty mouth up, I will, scumbag, kill you right here. Strike the rest of your brains out! DO NOT MAKE ME ENRAGED, THE FUCK! I CAN DO MUCH WHEN I AM ANGRY!”       “Oh, puppy, stop threatening me and showing off,” Eugene sneers contemptuously. “Even if you kill me, you will go to prison and die there, and your rich relatives will not help you. You avoided a sentence for killing your father’s pal, but nobody will save you this time. You don’t have your beloved uncle Michael, who could agree on anything! You would’ve died in prison a long time ago when you were a nineteen-year-old snoopy boy if not for your uncle. They would’ve beaten you to death! Or you would’ve hung yourself from grief.”       “Edward killed nobody!” Natalia says confidently. “Eric was the one to blame!”       “No, babe, that’s not true. This kid is a killer, who magically avoided a sentence. But he would not avoid it for the second time if he decided to kill me.”       “You know, I’d prefer going to prison than letting an idiot like you mock my girl and bring her to the wish to die,” Edward says rudely and coldly. “I’d go to prison with the thought that nothing threatens my fiancée. And her offender is rotting in the ground and burning in hell!”       “Come on?”       “You, bastard, you will pay for almost killing her! I ALMOST LOST HER BECAUSE OF YOUR FUCKING FAULT!”       “Kill me then!” Eugene throws his hands up. “Come on, puppy, do it! Or are you a coward, huh? Don’t you wanna go to prison?”       “I will do it if you hurt Natalia.”       “Coward…” Eugene sneers ironically. “Coward…”       “I will immediately tell my father you’ve run away from jail. He will do everything to put you in prison until the end of your fucking life! He and his good friend from the police!”       “Don’t even dream, boy! Nobody will find me. But if someone does it, I will quickly kill anyone. Anything to keep my promise and deal with you and this scumbag. I shall kill you and fuck her cruelly. Maybe, not even once.”       “Don’t dare!” Edward hides Natalia behind his back, while she tightly holds him by the shoulders, looking really frightened and white. “I will not let you come to her!”       “Calm down, boy. Whatever you want, this gal will be mine. You will be the first one to finally die. And then this stupid chicken will have no protector.” Eugene looks at Natalia with an evil smile, as he is massaging his tough penis. “Stupid but so sexy… If she wears a bag, she will drive anyone crazy.”       “SHUT UP!” Edward screams at the top of his lungs, breathing heavily enough, tightly clenching his hands into fists, and feeling the tension in his whole body. “CLOSE YOUR FUCKING MOUTH! OR I WILL CUT YOUR TONGUE!”       “You went too far, boy…” Eugene laughs contemptuously. “You’re becoming more similar to your crazy relatives. And you don’t want to believe you have lost to me. Understand that I’m stronger and will reach this gal anyway.”       “DO NOT MAKE ME FURIOUS, WAINWRIGHT! BETTER GET OUT OF HERE AT YOUR WISH BEFORE I BREAK YOUR BALLS!”       “Threaten as much as you want. But you’ve lost. And I’m thinking of what I want to do to this cutie. How I would undress her, caress her belly, caress her boobs, squeeze her butts, lick and kiss everything…” Eugene squeezes his penis unconsciously. “Take a couple of photos of this nude cutie, who would become very wet by that time… And fuck her until I get the orgasm that will make my eyes sock out.”       Eugene says it all with a sly, filthy smile, looking at Natalia crying quietly, letting his imagination get wilder and create the dirtiest sexual fantasies. He does literally shake from how much he wants to caress all the parts of her seductive body and satisfy all his nastiest wishes. And if not for Edward, Wainwright would possess the girl right here. In this place where there is nobody, and where nobody would hear her even if someone really wanted. And Natalia completely understands it. That’s why she gets literally green from horror and starts to shake much stronger, barely standing on her feet and not being able to believe it’s all really happening.       “Don’t cry, Natalia, don’t cry, it’s okay,” Edward calms down softly, hugging Natalia tightly, kisses her on the forehead, and caresses her head.       “It can’t be the truth…” Natalia makes a quiet sob. “This must be a nightmare… It can’t be the truth…”       “Don’t be afraid, sweetheart, he’ll do nothing to you.” Edward puts his hand on Natalia’s cheek, caresses it tenderly, and wipes tears under her eyes. “I will tear him apart if he dares to come to you.”       “He wanna mock me again…” Natalia throws a look full of horror at Eugene, who is moaning quietly while looking at her and thinking about what he would do to her naked body. “You just look how he’s moaning while staring at me. I don’t want him to do anything to me. I don’t want.”       “Be close to me, and everything will be okay.”       “Be careful, honey, I’m begging you!” Natalia begs with a quiet sob. “He might knock you out and reach for me. He will wish to take me somewhere and rape me.”       “It’s gonna be okay, my love.” Edward tenderly kisses Natalia on the cheek, caressing her head. “This time, I will be careful and won’t let him knock me out. You’re safe with me.”       “I don’t wanna suffer because of him again.”       “You will not, I promise, Just don’t go away from me. If you leave, you’ll be dead.”       Natalia says nothing and just makes a quiet sob, looking at Edward with wet eyes. He presses her closer to himself, staying very confident and really not being afraid to start a fight with the offender of his fiancée.       “So, babe, as we met at such a good place, nothing can stop us,” Eugene says with a sly smile, looking at Natalia with an eating look. “I will only deal with this puppy, and you will give me an incredible blow job.”       “You will not come to her!” Edward hisses through his teeth, pulling every single word. “YOUR DIRTY FANTASIES WILL NOT COME TRUE!”       “Stop barking, puppy. I’m not afraid of you.”       “Wrong! BECAUSE I, ASSHOLE, WILL BREAK YOUR NECK IF YOU DARE TO GET CLOSE TO HER!”       “Are you sure?”       Eugene takes a step toward Edward and Natalia with a sly smile, and they sharply go back. More specifically, the man takes the girl away. The red-haired man with a scar on his face shakes his head and sneers quietly, but then he sharply crosses the distance between himself and the lovers and tries to sneak up on the girl. But MacClife hides his fiancée behind his back, not letting himself stand behind Wainwright and always keeping an eye on him.       “Give me the girl at your wish,” Eugene demands coldly. “If you do it, I will keep you alive.”       “Don’t even hope!” Edward throws rudely. “Your dirty hands will not dare to touch my fiancée! And actually, we are leaving! Going to the police and our parents! To tell them about your escape!”       “Ha, you will go nowhere!” Eugene immediately closes the way for Edward, who steps aside alongside Natalia. “I mean, you can go out. But this blonde will stay here.”       “She will go only with me!”       “Be sure, MacClife, today was the last day when you saw your precious lady. You will not marry this chick. Because I shall take her with me and hide her where nobody will find this baby. All your searches will be worthless, and the police will eventually pronounce her dead.”       “I said SHE WOULD GO NOWHERE WITH YOU!” Edward says rudely, closing the way for Natalia, thinking she wants to go forward, even if she still keeps hiding behind his back and holding him by the shoulder with scared eyes.       “We will see it.”       Eugene sharply gives a start, runs to Natalia, and rips off the necklace with the gilt letter “N” from her neck, making her gasp loudly.       “No, my necklace!” Natalia exclaims with horror in her eyes, grabbing her throat.       “I don’t think you will need it,” Eugene says with a thrilled smile, showing Natalia her necklace and swinging it.       “Give her the necklace now!” Edward demands coldly but quietly. “Now!”       “Come on, baby, why does she need it?” Eugene looks at the necklace in his hands, the nails of which have black spots of dirt. “It’s just cheap stuff! The cheap stuff bought at some bazaar! The gal from a rich family must not wear this shit – only real jewelry.”       “I said, give Natalia the necklace now!”       “Wait, I shall take her ring, too. Maybe, it has some value. I could sell it and get big money if it had a couple of brilliants.”       “Do not make me furious, you, smelly freak. Either you give the jewelry at your wish, or I will take it by force.”       “Try then. Take this cheap. Your gift, I guess. Because you are not able to buy this little whore such gorgeous gifts like a brilliant necklace.”       Edward attacks Eugene with fists with an irritated roar to take the necklace he stole from Natalia, who cries with horror in her eyes and closes her mouth with a hand. MacClife, Jr., gives him a couple of hits in his yawl and pulls him by the hair strongly before the girl’s offender pushes him off by hitting him in the chest rudely.       “Nice attempt, MacClife,” Eugene smiles slyly. “But if you keep fighting so terribly, you will have zero chances. And not save your fiancée from me.”       Edward tries to attack Eugene again, but the criminal sharply goes away from him and clatters, shaking his head.       “Calm down, puppy, fie, fie!” Eugene sneers contemptuously. “Stop! Stop!”       “You really want me to hit your dirty face strongly?” Edward asks rudely, breathing heavily enough because of strong tension and tightly clenching his hands into fists.       “You will not do it! Because you are a coward! And I only need to push you with a leg for you to whine, double over, and forget about the gal. I can hit your balls strongly, so you have no time to think of her. Or maybe, I can be lucky and knock you out.”       “I am not kidding, Wainwright!” Edward replies rudely, pointing at Eugene with a finger and looking at him with anger. “If you touch her and do not give her the necklace, I swear, bastard, you will be dead!”       “It was hers but became mine.” Eugene puts Natalia’s necklace in the pocket of his old jeans. “And I shall deal with the gal after I kill you. So, nobody stops me. Her mother and father will never know what happened, and your family will not help you when the gal is in my hands.”       “You will not dare to come to her, asshole!”       “Threaten, puppy, threaten! I am not afraid of you.”       “You’d better not mess up with me, Wainwright. Maybe, I used to only speak and not to do, but now I do EVERYTHING I say. And if I said I’d personally put you in prison, IT WOULD HAPPEN.”       “Don’t think I want to kidnap this gal and ask for a ransom for her. Choke with all your money. I want to get a slave. The slave that would satisfy all my sexual wishes. And I do not doubt that I made the right choice this time, and this chick is going to bring me to the wild orgasm.”       Eugene throws a lustful look at the white from fear Natalia standing with dumbfounded eyes and worrying not because her offender is standing in front of her, but because he might do something to Edward.       “So, chick, are you ready to end up in the arms of a real male with a big penis?” Eugene asks with a sly smile, licking his lips and drying them off with a finger. “I would caress your naked body so well that you would get wet one minute later.”       Eugene slightly pulls up his old blue jeans covered with dirt and scratches his groin, still looking at Natalia with a sly smile on his face.       “Oh, I do feel how happy my dick would be if your sweet lips and tender thin fingers caressed it,” Eugene growls with enjoyment. “I already imagine how you’re standing naked on your knees in front of me, grab it… Caress it with your fingers, then slowly take it in your mouth, and suck me like a professional whore. M-m-m… Fuck, I’m so ready to finish…”       “SHUT UP, UGLY!” Edward roars at the top of his lungs, tightly hugging Natalia, who starts to cry and shake much stronger and snuggles his face in his shoulder, and caresses her head softly. “IF YOU SAY THIS BULLSHIT AGAIN, YOU WILL BE DEAD! I SWEAR, JACKASS!”       “You will be a corpse, MacClife. And this gal will not get married, as she wanted. Instead, she will be giving me pleasure. She will be doing what she came to this world for.”       Eugene confidently wants to come to Natalia with a wide, sly smile. But when he takes two steps, Edward runs to him shortly, gives him a few strong slaps in his face, strikes him down easily enough, and pushes the back of his head against the ground two times, tightly holding the offender of his fiancée by the throat, and looking at him with bloodshot eyes.       “I said if you came to her, you would be dead!” Edward throws rudely and strongly hits Eugene in the stomach with a heavy breath, making the man bend from the pain that gets obsessed with his body. “ARE YOU THE FUCK STUPID? SHOULD I SAY IT A MILLION TIMES?”       “A-A-A-A, SCUMBAG, IT HURTS!” Eugene moans, wincing strongly. “FUCKING PUPPY… I WISH YOU DIED…”       “No, asshole, you will die if you don’t leave Natalia alone,” Edward grabs Eugene by the collar strongly, makes him sit up, and smashes his fist in his yawl as strongly as possible. “Remember, she is only mine! And nobody else! AND NO BASTARD HAS NO RIGHT TO FEEL HER UP!”       “It’s never stopped me… NEVER!”       Eugene grabs Edward tightly by the arms, strikes him down immediately, and gives him very strong slaps in the face. But the guy does not let himself get hurt and quickly takes control of the situation, starting to beat Wainwright much crueler. It’s happening along with the loud shouts of the crying Natalia watching this scene with her mouth closed with both hands and dumbfounded eyes. After Edward beats Eugene strongly with his hands and legs and gives him strong hits on everything, he watches him doubling over in pain for two seconds with evil and a little heavy breath. Then the man pushes him with a leg again, quickly comes to the white and scared Natalia crying bitterly, and takes her hands.       “It’s okay, sweetie, it’s okay,” Edward says softly, caressing Natalia’s cheek. “He will not hurt you.”       “I can’t…” Natalia makes a quiet sob. “I can’t… That’s insane…”       “Quiet, my baby, quiet.” Edward hugs Natalia tightly and snuggles his face on her shoulder, caressing her head and back tenderly. “Calm down, please.”       “I am sick of what he says. I don’t want it… I don’t… I don’t wanna do anything for him I’d better die than do it. I don’t want! I don’t!”       “Don’t be afraid, Natalia, you’re with me. While I’m here, nothing will happen to you. If this bastard tries to hurt you, I will break his neck.”       “Don’t give me to him…” Natalia puts her arms around Edward’s neck and buries her nose in his shoulder, sobbing often and pressing herself as closely as possible to him as if she is afraid to let him go. “Please, Edward, please… I’m afraid of him… He’s sick… Sick… I don’t want…”       “Never, sweetheart,” Edward pronounces softly and kisses Natalia on the top of her head tenderly. “He won’t dare.”       Sadly, Eugene comes to himself quickly enough, gets up, sees Edward standing with his back turned to him, and thinks it’s a good moment for an attack with a sly smile. And he immediately uses it, coming closer and closer to MacClife, Jr., At some moment, Natalia moves her eyes into the distance, sees her offender getting closer to her and Edward, and claps the man on the shoulder with wet eyes, stepping back from him and pointing at Wainwright when she says:       “Edward, watch out! Turn around! Behind you!”       Edward turns around sharply and gets struck down to the ground. Natalia screams from fear, immediately jumps aside like a boiling kettle with her mouth closed, and watches what’s happening with dumbfounded eyes. The way her offender rises above her fiancé, gives him a few strong slaps in the face, and tries to strangle him by squeezing his throat strongly.       “Die, bastard, die!” Eugene hisses through his teeth, literally killing Edward with his furious look. “Die… So, I finally reach your blonde…”       “You will never get her,” Edward does not get confused, showing his contemptuous grin. “Hear me… Never… NEVER!”       Edward strongly kicks Eugene in the groin with a knee, making him scream with a winced face and double over. After this, MacClife, Jr., pushes Wainwright aside and does not refuse to slap him in the face two more times.       “Even if I have to kill, I will do it,” Edward says rudely and gives Eugene another hit with a fist right in his yawl. “And I will not feel sorry. Never!”       Edward tries to stand on his feet sharply, but Eugene, getting through the strong pain in his stomach and not paying attention to the metallic taste in his mouth, attacks him from behind, strongly hits his head against the small stone that he sees, and beats him on the face. After a strong hit, MacClife, Jr., gets blood on his forehead and under his nose, and the back of his head starts to hurt a little. However, he does not care about it and keeps fighting. For Natalia, who gets frozen in horror after she sees Eugene hitting Edward’s head against the stone and loudly shouts.       “No!” Natalia screams loudly with horror in her eyes and shakes strongly after Edward smashes his fist against Eugene’s temple and gets the same one in his nose. “Edward, no! Stop! For Christ!”       Natalia closes her mouth with both hands and cries quietly, shaking strongly from fear and praying that Eugene does nothing to her and Edward.       “Edward, please, hold on!” Natalia begs with despair. “Please… Don’t lose consciousness… Or he will do something to me. I don’t wanna be in his hands. I don’t. I won’t take it.”       Luckily, Edward still has enough strength and keeps fighting hard to protect Natalia and himself. When Eugene beats his face, he sharply kicks him in the chest with a leg, throws him aside, tightly grabs him by the hair, and pulls it on different sides.       “No, bastard, you will not kill me so easily,” Edward says coldly in a low voice. “You’re alone, and I wouldn’t have to spend my energy fighting with two or three folks. I will deal with you shortly.”       “We will see it, puppy,” Eugene sneers contemptuously and hits Edward in the abdomen as strongly as possible. “I will beat you so hard that you will lose all of your brain.”       Eugene gives another hit in the crotch of Edward, who, wincing from pain, doubles over with a quiet cry but tries to overcome it somehow, being happy he has a high enough pain threshold to bear a strong pain. And after bracing himself, he hits the offender of his fiancée right in the chest with a loud roar.       “So, I shall rip your balls out,” Edward hisses through his teeth, breathing heavily enough. “You, scumbag, got me too mad.”       “Just like you did it to me. Because YOU JUST LIVE IN THIS WORLD, AND YOU DID NOT DIE WHEN YOU WERE BEATEN IN PRISON TO HALF DEATH!”       Eugene strongly throws Edward aside and smashes his leg against the guy’s back, smiling mysteriously when seeing that his opponent is wincing from the pain that is echoing in his whole body.       “Die, little bastard!” Eugene roars and hits his leg against Edward’s crotch, while the guy winces quietly from pain. “To make your uncle Michael happy. And if you take your brother and daddy with you, he will be much happier.”       Eugene gives Edward a strong slap in the face, and moves his widely open eyes to Natalia standing aside, shaking strongly, and crying, as she watches what’s happening. He gets up sharply and runs to the scared girl as fast as a bullet. She immediately jumps back with a quiet cry, but does not run far because her offender catches her and grabs her by the hair painfully.       “No, NO!” Natalia screams at the top of her lungs. “NO-O-O-O-O! NO! A-A-A-A!”       “So, I’ve finally reached you, bitch,” Eugene says confidently with a sly, filthy smile. “Now you will surely be mine and do everything I want. You will no longer dare to resist me, your lord!”       “No, get back, get back!” Natalia starts to fight off Eugene with both hands too hard, not stopping to scream loudly. “NO! STOP! NO!”       “Close your mouth, slut!” Eugene pushes Natalia so rudely and strongly that she immediately falls to the ground. “You cannot scream! You can only moan! And suck!”       “I will not do this, I WILL NOT DO! DO NOT MAKE ME! NO!”       “I said SHUT UP!” Eugene strongly slaps Natalia in the face, making her scream loudly, grab her cheek, rub it energetically with a heavy breath, and look at her offender with horror in widely open eyes. “I SHALL FUCK YOU ANYWAY! NOT ONLY ONCE! AND IF YOU DON’T OBEY, YOU, BITCH, WILL FEEL VERY HURT.”       “GET BACK!” Natalia resists too hard, giving as strong hits to Eugene as possible. “GET BACK! DON’T TOUCH ME! DON’T TOUCH!”       “STOP SCREAMING, BITCH!” Eugene strongly slaps Natalia in the face again, grabs her by the hair rudely, and raises her head up sharply, getting down on his knees. “AND DO NOT MOVE! DO NOT MOVE, SCUMBAG!”       Eugene insolently gets his hand underneath Natalia’s crop top and rudely squeezes her breasts, while she screams loudly and tries to break free.       “NO, DON’T DO IT!” Natalia screams loudly with her widely open eyes. “NO! IT HURTS! IT’S DISGUSTING!”       “M-m-m, the boobs are still gorgeous,” Eugene moves his hand to Natalia’s thigh with a smug smile, squeezes her buttocks rudely, and slaps on them strongly. “The butts are also wonderful! AH! INCREDIBLE!”       “DON’T DO THIS! STOP! I DO NOT WANT!”       “Nobody asks you!”       “NO! I WILL DO NOTHING!”       “Alright, slut, let’s get your mouth busy.”       Eugene kisses Natalia on the lips by force, despite her resistance and loud moans. It makes her hold down a familiar attack of nausea caused by the disgusting smell from his mouth and the fact that he gets his tongue too deeply in her mouth and examines it. Although she is terrified to death, she kind of turns off the instinct of self-protection that makes her fight back against her offender, even if it does not work.       “Ah, Natalia…” Eugene pronounces much quieter with enjoyment, kisses the curve of Natalia’s neck two times with his dry, rough lips, runs his tongue over it, and strongly bites the most sensitive area of it and her collarbones, not caring about her loud shouts and strong hits on his arms. “You’re so sexy, babe… It’s getting strong in my pants because of you.”       “No! Let me go!”       “I already want you…” Eugene rudely squeezes Natalia’s breasts with both hands. “I want my penis in your ass…”       “Edward!” Natalia screams at the top of her lungs with tears and despair. “Edward, please, help me! Please! PLEASE! DON’T GIVE ME TO HIM!”       “SPREAD YOUR LEGS, BITCH!” Eugene sharply tries to spread Natalia’s legs, despite her resistance. “SPREAD, I SAID!”       Luckily, Eugene does not torture Natalia for too long. Edward immediately comes to himself after hearing her scream. More specifically, he makes himself forget about the pain in his stomach and crotch. The man gets up and sees Eugene raising himself above the poor girl screaming so loudly, kissing her on the lips and the neck, and caressing them and her whole face with his tongue, forcing her to struggle with the attack of nausea. The criminal confidently strokes the lady’s thighs, buttocks, and crotch and tries to spread her legs. Getting enraged and not thinking much, MacClife, Jr., runs to Wainwright quickly, grabs him by the hair rudely, takes him far from Natalia, and smashes his fist against his jaw. While the girl crying bitterly and shaking strongly from fear sits up slowly.       “ASSHOLE, HOW DID YOU DARE?” Edward screams at the top of his lungs, sharply grabs Eugene by the collar, and shakes him, breathing like a furious bull and literally killing him with his furious look. “I SAID YOU WOULD BE DEAD IF YOU TOUCHED HER WITH A FINGER!”       “She is still incredible,” Eugene smiles slyly. “The boobs and the ass are still good, and kissing her is a pleasure. Though, if she were quieter, I would literally get an orgasm. Even without getting my dick into her!”       “DON’T DARE TO SAY THESE THINGS WITH MY PRETENSE!” Edward strongly slaps Eugene in the face. “I SHALL BURY YOU ALIVE IF I HEAR SOMETHING LIKE THIS AGAIN!”       “Haven’t you still realized you've lost? No matter how hard you try, you will not deal with me and protect this sexy dolly. Nothing will stop me from taking Natalia, where nobody will find her. Including her hysterical shouts. And in the worst case, I shall just hit the gal on the head. So, she passes out as well as you will do it now.”       “I do say again, YOU WILL NOT GET HER!” Edward smashes his hit against Eugene’s temple and his groin as strongly as possible. “SHE WILL GO ONLY WITH ME! GOT IT?”       “I did know I’d have to spend a lot of time on you. But it’s alright, I will do it. I should only hit you on your head strongly, so you pass out. Or even die.”       After grabbing Edward by the hair tightly, Eugene strongly hits his knee against the crotch, making the guy double over, and gives him a stronger hit on the temple. The guy cannot keep a balance and falls, and his offender keeps beating him cruelly, giving him strong hits on everything he sees and pulling him by the hair sometimes. Natalia being much more overwhelmed screams every time Edward gets a strong hit. Every single muscle of her body is super tense, and her imagination creates the most horrifying scenes – the consequences of the fact that her fiancé is not trying to protect himself, is just lying on the ground and moaning from pain. She gets obsessed with despair and the realization that Eugene is about to beat Edward and reach her.       Despite MacClife, Jr.’s warning about not running away, Natalia decides that it would be the best way for her. She watches the cruel fight for a few seconds before she slowly starts to go aside, quickens a step, and runs far away. At some moment, Eugene notices it and decides to use a chance. But first, he strongly beats Edward with his legs and hands, so the guy has no time to get up and catch. Although he starts to protect himself somehow, a strong pain in his crotch strikes him down and makes him forget that he must save Natalia. And Wainwright completely gets it.       “Ha, I won!” Eugene laughs loudly and evilly, and beats Edward with a leg right in his nose, from which a thin flow of blood shows up. “You didn’t show off much! That blonde will be mine! She will give me an incredible blowjob and show up absolutely nude for me. I can’t wait to bend that whore over and let my penis do its work. And I will do it.”       Eugene hits Edward in the stomach again and looks at him with a furious look for two seconds, tightly clenching his hands into fists.       “You can say goodbye to her, shabby puppy,” Eugene says rudely, grabbing Edward by the hair. “You will never see Natalia. I will do my best for nobody to find her.”       Eugene splits at Edward’s face with an arrogant look, turns around, and follows Natalia, who hid somewhere. MacClife, Jr., keeps lying on the ground and suffering from the strong pain in his body, swearing at himself for letting himself give up. He raises himself slightly with a heavy breath on one arm and watches Wainwright leave with evil in his eyes, noticing the disappearance of his fiancée and feeling how his heart squeezes painfully with the thought that something terrible is about to happen to her.
