James Weyland

An heir to a large automobile factory and the entire family fortune.

A highly publicized playboy, known for his vanity, good looks, and speculation about his personal life.

He enjoyed playing sports, drinking whiskey, and going out to clubs, but lately, he hasn't been going out as much and everyone said it was because of his mother's illness, but I can tell you in advance that there was something else that was making the playboy trade nights out for nights in ...

James had suffered an accident while playing sports in the past, something that ended up giving him trauma and an unexpected diagnosis, he would not be able to have children in the future. He hid this from everyone, but the truth would come out one day.

Although never proven, it was almost always reported in the press that James was involved in some relationship, something that James never confirmed, but he was almost always seen in photos with someone.

The truth is that the hopes of James' suitors should already be dashed, as he was secretly already a married man...

Katherine Vieira Santa Maria (Kate Vieira)

Kate was a resident doctor about to graduate. Very lonely, she ended up getting attached to a terminal patient, Sara Weyland, James' mother. Because of this emotional attachment, Kate ends up accepting Sara's last requests before she leaves this world.

In addition to marrying James, Kate agreed to try to get pregnant, giving Sara the chance to have a grandchild, and because of that, she ended up getting involved with James more than she would have liked at first.

But this involvement brought negative consequences for Kate, the few people who knew about her relationship with James despised her, saying that she had married for interest, since she was apparently an orphan, she studied medicine because she had won a scholarship at university, someone who had nothing to their name.

What people didn't know is that not only did James have a secret, Kate, who only introduced herself as Kate Vieira, hid her last name Santa Maria. She also had a secret, she wasn't just any medical student, Kate was actually a billionaire!

It was nighttime, and Kate had just gotten out of the shower. She carefully prepared her body, massaging her skin with a scented oil, and slipped into a black lace lingerie set.

She dried her hair, tossing it to the side, and to finish it off, she put on a sheer nightgown that complemented the sensuality of her look.

Kate took a deep breath and left her room, going directly to the room next door, her husband James' room.

She entered, quickly closed the door, and stood still, leaning against it. Despite knowing how to seduce him, she was still a little hesitant, fearing rejection.

James was lying on his bed with his laptop on his lap, wearing only a pair of plaid pajama pants. When he heard the door open and close, he immediately placed his laptop on the table beside him and turned to look at his visitor.

Involuntarily, his gaze traveled over Kate's body. She was dressed exactly the way he liked it. That transparent nightgown showed a lot and at the same time hid everything he wanted to grab at that moment.

With blazing eyes, he jumped out of bed and in one stride reached Kate.

She felt cornered by the man in front of her. He grabbed her arms and pinned them above her head, giving her no chance to move. James attacked her lips in a fierce and possessive kiss.

He thought Kate's lips were soft and sweet, her body firm and voluptuous. Her scent was intoxicating, and her personality was unlike any woman he'd ever been with.

In a second, James threw Kate on his bed, reason had already abandoned him, all his senses only desired one thing, to feel Kate intensely.

Kate let out a moan and closed her eyes, feeling her husband's mouth kissing every part of her body, thirsty with desire.

Although she had entered into this marriage, it wasn't as if she had married a despicable man. James was a young man, in his early thirties, a playboy desired in high society, not only for his financial status but also for his seductive beauty and elegance.

He smelled good, his light brown hair was always neatly cut, his beard trimmed, and his athletic body with well-defined muscles.

In bed, he was like a God, he dominated and managed to take his wife to the heavens several times tirelessly.

And there went another new nightgown, Kate sighed as she felt James in his ferocity tearing another one of her nightgowns and ripping it off completely.

"James!" she tries to complain but he silences her, attacking her lips again, kissing her as if it were the last time he would taste those lips.

He had arrived that day from his trip, he had been a week without seeing his wife, his desire was on the surface, he didn't even bother to undress her completely, he just pulled her panties to the side and entered at once, quickly and abruptly.

Kate let out a low moan, feeling him invading her completely and the pleasure of the sensation of being taken.

James intertwined his fingers with Kate's, as he pressed his lips to hers and thrust strongly, driven crazy by how wet she got so quickly.

Kate wraps her legs around his hips, begging for more, begging him to be faster and harder.

Not hesitating, he attacks her in back and forth movements, urgent kisses and his hand caressed and squeezed her body with an overwhelming desire.

Totally dominated by pleasure, Kate can't resist and melts in a long and delightful orgasm.

As she writhed beneath him, James watched, going crazier with lust seeing that woman who didn't hide the pleasure in her expressions.

"More, James! Keep going, I want more." she says between moans, digging her nails into his back.

He can't resist, he attacks her again with a lot of lust and fervor, if there was one thing that finished this man off it was when she begged him between moans to take her to the peak again.

It was three in the morning when Kate woke up, she didn't need her alarm clock, her body, despite being taken to the limit, still responded to the programming of automatically waking up at three in the morning.

She was trapped in James' arms, he hugged her possessively, glued to his body.

Kate tried to move with difficulty, tried to be delicate so as not to wake him, but it was impossible, she had to push him.

But he didn't let her go, a grunt escaped his mouth and he said in a low voice, without opening his eyes:

"You're not going today, Katherine. I'm not satisfied yet, I want more."

Kate took a deep breath and a tear almost fell from her eyes. She thought about how James only saw her as his toy in bed, as his object of pleasure. He just doesn't want her to go because he's not satisfied yet.

Kate pushes him and jumps out of bed, before he can grab her back. Then she starts picking up her lingerie thrown on the floor.

"Kate, stay. I'm asking you." Kate hears her husband's voice and sees him sitting on the bed, looking at her. His eyebrows are furrowed and he seems to be a little irritated.

"I can't, James. You more than anyone know that I have to go to the hospital, my shift will start soon."

"You're just a resident, Kate. I don't understand…"

"I'm a resident, but one day I'll graduate. Residency is exactly for me to get used to the routine when I'm a doctor."

"Is that right? Are you just practicing medicine or is there another reason?"

"What reason, James?" Kate looks at him, irritated, already knowing where this conversation was going to go.

"Edward."

"Oh, stop it! I already told you that Edward is just the chief surgeon at the hospital. And I've also asked you not to interfere with my work, James. I don't care what you do for a living or what you do outside this house, I ask that you do the same for me. Don't interfere in my life, you are not my real husband, our marriage is just a deal."

One thing that irritated Kate was when James tried to interfere in her professional life. She didn't understand why all of a sudden he became so bothered by the residency she was doing at Santa Maria Hospital.

As a matter of fact, she knew why. This started happening after he met Edward, the hospital's chief surgeon, with whom Kate has a brotherly relationship.

She didn't believe that James was acting this way out of jealousy, but out of spite. To her, he was a spoiled playboy who saw her as a toy that no one could touch.

Kate didn't believe there was love in that marriage, since the only times they talked or interacted was when they were in bed.

She thought that James, a billionaire, owner of one of the most famous sports car brands, famous and handsome, would never assume his relationship with an orphan medical student.

That's right, despite being married for three years, few people knew about this marriage. James continued to appear in gossip pages as a bachelor surrounded by women eager to get his attention.

And while he was out partying, Kate was at the hospital, taking care of patients.

And how did she get into this marriage? Well, it all started with one of the hospital's patients, Sara Weyland.

Sara is James' mother, a terminally ill patient. She's so debilitated that all the hospital doctors can do is give her palliative care to extend her life a little longer.

Kate always treated patients with great care and dedication, and as soon as she met Sara, the two had an inexplicable connection.

Kate never knew her parents and Sara, despite her illness, was a cheerful and affectionate woman, especially with Kate.

She remembered Kate's birthday and encouraged her in her studies, quickly becoming a mother figure to Kate, who felt in her a little of what she never had, a mother's love.

Sara's dream was that before she died, she could see her son married to a good woman and that he would give her a grandchild. That was all she wanted.

However, James refused incessantly. He didn't want to have children and was even willing to marry his ex-girlfriend, Miranda. However, Sara didn't like Miranda and suggested that he marry Kate, whom she had the utmost respect for.

James had no choice but to refuse, as his mother owned half the shares in the car factory and she blackmailed him, saying that if he didn't marry Kate, she would donate her shares to charity.

Kate accepted because she had developed an unusual regard for Sara, almost an emotional dependence, and she knew that Sara's days were numbered, so she thought this marriage wouldn't last long.

However, it lasted three long years, three long years that Sara struggled to stay alive, all because she had hopes of seeing Kate pregnant.

Sara convinced Kate to try to have a child without James knowing because she knew he had been adamant about not fulfilling a deathbed wish of a mother and Kate agreed to this idea.

It was Kate's dream to have a child and give him what she never had. She already had plans for independent production, so Sara's plan matched her ideas. If the child's father didn't want the baby, she would take care of it as she had already planned.

And so, for three years Kate has been trying to get pregnant, it was not difficult to move things forward with James and that's why she considered him a womanizer. How could a man who seems to hate her, attack her on the first attempt at seduction? He was worthless, according to Kate. But she wasn't that tough, her heart was full of need for love and it didn't take long to end up falling in love with James.

Because of this feeling, after leaving the house and standing on the avenue, waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Kate felt her chest tighten.

A strong regret came over her. She was left thinking about the words she said. It's not true that she doesn't care what he does outside the house, especially at parties, every time she sees pictures of him surrounded by women, she dies of jealousy.

Yes, he's not really her husband, but he could be. She wondered if they shouldn't have a real conversation, about feelings and about their future. A conversation about the possibility of making this relationship real, after Sara was gone.

Kate looked at herself in the car's rearview mirror and thought that she was always wearing scrubs, her nails were always trimmed, and her face was clean. She didn't wear makeup or provocative clothes like the women who approached James, but she knew she was an attractive woman, he even showed it when he couldn't resist throwing her into bed whenever he saw her.

Kate thought that maybe the problem with him assuming her was her social status, because she was apparently a scholarship orphan. However, this is the version of the story that she told everyone, she was really an orphan, but her financial and social status was much higher than everyone thought.

With that thought, Kate decided not to go to the hospital. She returned to the Weyland mansion quickly. She hoped to find James still in bed and continue what they were doing.

It's been three years of this marriage and she thought that maybe there was some feeling on his part.
