Episode 9

Brian: Well, I think we have something pending… (I say approaching her)

Ana: B-Brian… (she says nervously) I'm not ready for this. (She says walking backwards and leaning against the wall)

I approach her and pull her body against mine, and I see that she is already breathless, it's impossible that I'm the only one feeling this effect she has on me.

Brian: I won't do anything against your will…

I keep one hand on her waist, and the other I place on her face, lifting it up, so I can look deep into her eyes…

Brian: Girl, I don't know what you have that's making me feel this way…

Ana: L-Like w-what?

Brian: Driving me crazy.

I finish speaking, and I take her lips in a kiss full of desire, and incredibly, she responds, clumsy at first, but then she manages to follow along just right, and I dare say, it was the best kiss I've ever had.

I continue kissing her, and I lead her to the bed without her noticing, as soon as we are very close, I lay her down and at the same time her eyes widen…

Brian: Trust me…

She nods in agreement, somewhat apprehensive.

I go back to kissing her, and when I see that she is more relaxed, I take a stylus that I had already separated, and left near the bed. And I make a small cut on her thigh near her groin.

Ana: Ouch….

Brian: Relax, it's over…. (I say, giving her a little kiss). I'm sorry, but I needed to do this, I need some of your blood on the sheet, to take to the councilors. In case they ask for a test to see if the blood is really yours.

Ana: All right, I just wasn't expecting that… (she says in a tearful voice) I've always been sensitive to pain…

Brian: It will pass in a little while, and I can help you forget about it a little too…

Ana: H-How?

I go back to kissing her with the same intensity, running my hand over her body, and when I stop the kiss, I see her face red with shame, and when she's like that, she's even more beautiful than she already is, but I'll have plenty of time to take that shame away from her.

I help her to her feet, remove the sheet and set it aside to take to the council tomorrow, and put on a new one.

We lie down and start talking a bit.

Brian: Tell me a little about yourself? (I ask, already knowing her life completely)

Ana: Well, I'm 21 years old, I'm the youngest daughter of the Rossi family, I lost my mother in a car accident, when I was still a child, I must have been about 10 years old, and from there, my father has only despised me, and I don't know why. My life doesn't have many new things, since I've lived locked up since then.

Brian: Oh…

Ana: Tell me a little about yourself…

Brian: I'm 27 years old, I have a company in the automotive business, and I also lost my mother, she passed away when I was 15, and I still miss her to this day.

Ana: What did she die of?

Brian: They killed her to get revenge on my father.

Ana: Wow, how evil…

Brian: Yes, but I've already killed everyone who did this to her.

I see her look at me scared.

Brian: I'm a mobster, Ana, it's inevitable to do these things.

Ana: Yes, I know. With time, I will get used to it.

Brian: You will. And a little later on, I want you to start training, so you can defend yourself.

I see her nod in agreement.

Ana: Sorry if the kiss wasn't that good, it's just that I-I've n-never d-done t-this… (she says embarrassed, turning her face away from me)

Brian: Are you kidding? So you were born knowing (I say laughing) because I liked it. (I say turning her face towards me)

Ana: You're handsome like this, you must have already been with several experienced women… (she whispers)

Brian: I liked the compliment. (I answer laughing)

She starts laughing, and what a delicious laugh.

Ana: Brian, I know we don't have anything real, and that this marriage is just a facade. But I wanted to ask you two things.

Brian: It depends… What would they be? (I say playing tough)

Ana: I wanted to go back to school, to finish high school. Since they forced me to stop studying… (she says with a sad look)

I look at her and I have no idea of the dimension of what they did to her.

Brian: I'll take care of that, tomorrow. (I say looking at her, and her look changes and she becomes cheerful)

Ana: Really?

Brian: Of course. What would be the other thing?

Ana: My mother was very humiliated by my father, both at home and on the street, everyone knew he had a mistress. I don't want to go through that too. (She says looking at the ceiling)…

Brian: Hey… (I turn her face to me) I would never do that to you, even though our marriage is a sham, I will respect you. And my mafia does not accept betrayal. (I see her expression soften)

Now I need to get some sleep, I have an appointment with the councilors early in the morning.

Ana: Okay. (She says turning to the other side of the bed)

I watch her lie down on the other side, but I actually feel a crazy urge to sleep with her in my arms, I must just be crazy. I fight it, but I end up falling asleep.
