My Addiction by Ida Gonzalez (best ereader for academics .txt) 📕

Today I had to do double shift, and it was already eight o'clock at night, I went to change my uniform and when I was about to leave Marc' voice stopped me.... "Paula?

"Marc, what's up?" I turn to look at him.

"Can we talk?"

"Oh yes, of course..." I answered him, "Mmm, is it true what they say? "he said in a low voice.

"And what do they say? " I ask intrigued, seeming nervous, and angry?

"That you're Dante De Luca's girlfriend?" he stares at me, I just bite my lip nervously.

"Mmm, yes." I answer and he smiles wryly, denying, and I don't like that anymore....

"That was why. " he says as if affirming something.

Was that why what?" he asked with a raised eyebrow. "That you never gave me a chance.

I gasped in surprise.

"What are you saying Marc?" I ask angrily.

"It's because I don't make as much money as Mr. De Luca, isn't it?" he waves his hand sarcastically.

"Look Marc, I don't know what's wrong with you, but I always made it clear that I had no feelings for you before I met Dante, I don't know why you're complaining now. ", I clarify.

She comes dangerously close, noticing that he had been drinking.

 "I thought you were different Paula, but I see you're a slut like all of them." I gasp in horror at his words, I don't hesitate to raise my hand to smash it against his face, I automatically feel my hand burn, he touches his face, and quickly grabs my arm roughly.

"You know what, I don't want to see you here again Paula." my heart beats erratically, tears are not long in coming....

"You're not short of money anymore."

"Let go of me Marc! You're hurting me. "the tears don't wait instead of letting go, he holds my face with his other hand and squeezes me very hard, I gasp in pain and sob, I don't know this Marc, he has no trace of the man I knew.

"I should never have noticed you, you are nothing but a whore who sells herself for money to the highest bidder. " He said again, causing me pain in my face, as I struggled with him to try to free myself from his rough grip.

"Repeat what you said one more time and you're a dead man. " I hear Dante's voice full of fury behind me, Marc suddenly releases me to turn to see my boyfriend more angry than ever, in fact I had never seen him like this, in a second he pushes me away from him and pushes him with all his strength, Marc just laughs ironically.

"Wow!!! He sure defends his little whore!" Without saying a word, Dante punches him in the face, and pounces on him delivering a series of blows....

"Stop Dante!" I yell as Iam appears on the scene and holds me by the waist..... "Let go Iam, you have to stop him, he's going to kill him!"

"Serves him right, for being a son of a bitch. " Iam responds, while we see how Dante hits Marc over and over again.

"Iam please. "I see Jorge and yell at him to help me, they arrive quickly with the other guards to separate them, Marc coughs full of blood on the floor.

"Don't come near my wife again, because you'll be a dead man." he warns angrily, pointing his finger at him.

Iam releases me and I run to Dante, I hug him as I cry, he wraps me in his arms to calm me down.

"Come on love, let's go home." Is all he says, carrying me by the waist to the car.

Iam says goodbye to us and we climb in with Dante, he quickly sits me on his legs, while Jorge drives.

"Are you okay, sir?" asks his driver a little concerned.

"Yes, Jorge, we are going home. " replies my boyfriend.

I hug Dante, leaning against his chest and he does the same, caressing my back and kissing my head repeatedly.

"He's not coming near you again," he tells me.

"I don't know what happened, Dante, he wasn't like that, he..."

"It's just that you didn't really know him Paula, that's different."

In a short time we arrive home, we get out of the van and enter the house, as we enter Katy sees me, and runs to me.

"What's wrong Pauli, why are you crying?" she asks looking at me worriedly.

"It's nothing Kathy, I'm just tired that's all. " I reply so she doesn't get alarmed for nothing, Katy looks at me and then at Dante....

"Really?" she asks doubtfully, Dante just nods.... "That's right beautiful, there's nothing wrong with her, she's just tired and has a headache, now she's going to rest. "Dante clarifies. Katy shakes her head affirming.... "It's ok, rest sis.

I saw her sad about how I am, I was going up the stairs when I turn and give her a big hug, she smiles..." I love you princess I'm ok. " I tell her to calm her down caressing her cheek, and leave a kiss on her forehead. "Rest Paula..." You too love, rest you too. "I answer her.

We go up to our room, I walk sitting on the edge of the bed, Marc' words echo in my head, Dante just watches me, suddenly he kneels in front of me grabbing my hands, and kisses them repeatedly.
