Episode 6

Several hours have passed since Hector left in search of the infernal witch, he hasn't arrived, I call him and he doesn't answer, just like Negro; I start to wonder if something happened to them. I begin to undress to take a shower, letting the water soothe this anxiety, it will be dark soon. I step out of the shower and look at myself in the mirror; I am losing a lot of weight, my dark circles are evident, I feel a bit weak, but I decide to get dressed, apply some perfume, and go downstairs to join Nana and Lazaro, who are engaged in a lively conversation in the living room. I feel a bit impatient while Nana looks at me.

Nana: "Do you want to eat something? You don't look very well; you're a bit pale." - She says with concern, and just as I'm about to respond, one of my men informs me that they've arrived. I get up but feel bewildered when I see them all covered in scratches, with Negro carrying a girl who looked small in his arms, but I couldn't stop gazing at her beautiful reddish hair. As I look at Hector cleaning the blood from his face while the other guys show bruises, I put my hands on my hips, analyzing the situation.

Alex: "Can you tell me what the hell happened to you? Did you fight with a cat or what?" - (Intrigued.)

Hector: "I'll tell you! But where do we put her?" - He says while trying to wipe the blood off his face.

Alex (Looking at Negro): "Take her to my room. Lazaro, can you make sure she's okay and that these brutes haven’t done anything to her?" (As I watch Lazaro nod and follow Negro with her in his arms toward my room).

—"Now, tell me what happened?" — I ask, intrigued.

Hector: "When we got to her place, I decided to talk to the girl civilly, but she refused. I made her offers, and still, she wouldn't comply.

So I took advantage of the moment she was leaving with some boxes and we started following her until she saw Negro. The guys tried to subdue her, but the girl knows how to defend herself and left these idiots on the ground in a matter of seconds. Meanwhile, I tried to reason with her, but that damn Negro hit her and knocked her out. So we got in the car, and halfway there, the girl woke up and almost killed us with her nails; I swear they looked like Swiss army knives. We almost lost control of the car, and Negro was the one who got the worst of it; he’s scratched all over, but since he's black, you can barely see it... But Nana, it was horrible; if her nails were any longer, she would've taken out a lung or a kidney or something. Look at Nana, look what she did to my beautiful face, she almost killed us." - (Hugging Nana like a small child) —"We had to subdue and drug her, and we barely managed to do it; she even killed my cupcake."

Alex: "Don't be so exaggerated!" — Trying not to laugh, "And what cupcake are you talking about?" - I ask, confused.

Hector: "You wouldn't understand; I think we should use those nails as torture; they'd be really effective..." - I watch Hector being coddled by Nana like a child, while I roll my eyes and head upstairs. On my way, I run into Negro coming down the stairs; he leans slightly and passes by me, making his way to my room where I see Lazaro coming out.

Lazaro: "She’s fine; I don’t think she’ll wake up for now. I applied a balm to reduce the swelling on her head."

Alex: "Okay, thanks." - I'm about to enter my room when my phone rings—it's my father, so I take the call.

Anny:

After waking up and finding myself in a moving car, I defended myself as best I could, but they overpowered me until I stopped breathing and pretended the drug they gave me took effect. I waited for the man to leave, who treated me very gently and put a balm on my injury, which I can tell is natural by its scent. I waited for him to go so I could find a way out and a means to escape these men. I took out my cellphone; the touchscreen is broken, so it doesn't work. I get up and see a large window, but it’s like I’m on the second floor—it's too high... Then I hear voices at the door and the sound of a cellphone. I continue looking for a way to get out, but when I hear the door, I run like crazy, unsure of what to do. The only idea that comes to me is to go back to bed and pretend to be asleep. I feel footsteps heading in my direction, I try to regulate my breathing, but I feel like I’m being watched.

Alex: I enter my room, leave my phone on the table, and walk toward the bed. As I get closer, I can see her completely; she is beautiful, from head to toe. Her hair glows like fire against her pale skin, her lashes are long, and her eyebrows match the color of her hair. Her body is full of curves.

But what catches my attention is the necklace she wears around her neck, a red heart wrapped in wire.

I feel the urge to touch it, leaning closer to her and inhaling her sweet scent. It’s then that I see her open those bright black eyes, but suddenly I feel a sharp pain in my groin and a blow to my head as she calls me a pervert. She starts to run, but I manage to grab her leg, causing her to fall in an instant, and I climb on top of her as she appears wild like a beast.

Anny: "Let me go, pervert! You sicko, you were trying to take advantage of me!" she yells, struggling to push me off.

Alex: "Calm down, infernal witch! I would never take advantage of a woman, especially not you—you're not my type. Look, witch, you’d better appreciate your life because you need to help me."

Anny: "Let me go! I’m not going to do it." As I look into his eyes, he is the man of my dreams, but I can see an image in my mind of him kissing me. Still, I force myself to push him off. I finally succeed, but as I do, I hear the sound of the beads from his bracelet breaking. I turn to run, but his piercing scream stops me...
