In Kaden's house;
Jose: Sir, such a pleasure to meet you.
Prime Minister: Likewise! You must be....
Jose: Jose De Santo. I am Kaden's brother.
Prime Minister: Speaking of Mr. Kaden, where is he?
Jose: Well...
~~~~~
Antonio: He is not picking up! That's it! I'm going after him!
Victoria: You stay where you are!
Antonio: Jose wont be able to seal the deal with the fucking Prime Minister, woman!
Victoria: It's not our concern! If El Patron is not here it's because for once someone is more important than the freaking business! You stay where you are or else....
Antonio: Esto es un desastre! {This is a disaster!!}
Victoria: Belen! Belen!
Belen: Is the house on fire?
Victoria: Bring the bottle, we can open it now!
Belen: The 5000 pound bottle we decided to keep sacred until a miracle happens?
Victoria: Exactly!! Hurry up!
~~~~~~
Belen: What is the miracle, tell me why we are drinking this fine wine?
Victoria: The Prime Minister is here, and El Jefe is spending time with Della instead of sealing a deal. For once, business came second for him!
Belen: No! Are you serious right now?
Victoria: I am!
Belen: I cant believe we opened this fine wine for nothing! Ugh! That's not a miracle, I'd call it stupidity!
Victoria: You greedy girl, do not be silly.
Belen: No, man, no! We should have waited until something big happened, we smashed the bottle in vain. Oh, my heart! It was the only expensive wine we got our hands on! We ruined the moment.
Victoria: Might as well drink it now.
Belen: I hate my life!
Victoria: No, you don't!
Belen: But I do!
~~~~~~
Jose: That is the deal we offer.
Prime Minister: Full protection for my family if I look away each time on of your shipments leaves the country?
Jose: Yes, sir.
Prime Minister: What are you exporting?
Jose: Wine from our vineyard.
Prime Minster: I was not born yesterday, son.
Jose: Traditional skills and crafts are passed down from generation to generation, sir. We now sell our brands to twenty-none countries, I must say we are very proud to grow our business.
Prime Minister: You better stop selling me shit, or this conversation ends right here. I know your brother is the head of your family, he is a mafia boss who rules the business by avoiding paperwork. He also deals with selling illegal drugs while using wine as a canvas. I also know that he offers protection, if he benefits from it. Everything he does is to bring more money to the table. He is not the eldest son, yet he is the clever one.
Jose: Right. Everything you said is true. What he also told me is that your career will end tonight if you don't sign the contract he offers.
Prime Minister: Are you threatening me??
Jose: Yes. We can do this the easy way or the hard one. Choose now, sir. Two girls are waiting for me upstairs. It's rude of me to keep them waiting.
Prime Minister: Do you realize who you are speaking to?
Jose: With all due respect, I'm much nicer than my brother. I am giving you a choice that's serves in your favor, sir. My brother would not even bat an eye in your direction.

Kaden
How can she sleep so peacefully in my arms? When she's sleeping like this in my arms, I want time to stop. She is so fragile, like a flower you look at and get succumbed in her scent. Her perfume mesmerizes you, fresh and sweet as she is. She is tiny, warm and feels like home. I place my hand on her hair, instantly I can feel how soft it is. She takes good care of herself. I respect her for being this beautiful without using tricks. Her skin is soft, her hair smells like orchids, the little makeup she used goes in her favor.
She makes me think that I am not as bad as I used to think I was. She finds comfort while sleeping in my arms and I find the peace I was looking for. I cant stop looking at her. She was right, this is a romantic night for us, my first romantic night with a girl. In the past, I thought the water calms me down, I was wrong. This girl gives me a reason to reflect on my mind, thoughts and emotions. I want to hold onto her like this forever. I do not want anyone to touch her as I do.
I don't want anyone to see her vulnerable side, to know what lies beneath her beautiful shell. I noticed she doesn't like to open up in front of people, yet with me, she is transparent. The sun glows on her skin, making her shine, more intense than diamonds. Her natural beauty can make anyone kneel in front of her without blinking. She is a weakness for powerful men without her knowledge. I am attached to her deep in every aspect.
Oh, Della, what have you done to me? I want to wake her up, get rid of her clothes and make her mine. Forever. She should have run away when she had the chance. I will do anything for this girl. Why on Earth am I so attached to her? Never I thought I would care for anyone who is not part of my family. I know once she sees her brother, she will no longer want to stay with me. Few more days. I need a few more days. For once, I am surrounded by light in this cold darkness. She'll break me, yet I can handle pain. What I cannot fathom is not seeing her pretty face again. My little butterfly, flap your wings a little longer for me. I'll protect you. I will give you my word and so much more, just stay a little bit longer.
But before I get lost in her spell, I remember that I am not her Prince Charming. In her story, I am the devil. She decided not to run away from me, worst fucking move she could have made. Fuck! How did I end up in this fucking mess? Why am I so desperate for a girl? They are all the same, nothing is special about her! All I want is my brother out of the prison and her old man back in Spain. She's distracting me! I cant lose focus! I have a mission to complete! I do not have the time to fix broken girls! Yet I am not sure who is fixing who. I'm not a weak man, I cant be controlled by a girl.
I wont stay around her one more minute, she is messing with my head. I pulled out my phone to call my bodyguards.
Kaden: Come back to the yacht. When she wakes up, bring her back home.
Man: Yes, Jefe!
I leaver her sleeping with a bitter taste in my mouth. I need to keep my distance from her, if not she will never leave my house. I got into a speed boat and drove to the shore, entered my car and sped home.
Jose: About time your precious royal ass got home.
Kaden: Did you seal the deal?
Jose: What do you think?
Kaden: Good! Send a bottle of whiskey to my room.
Jose: What on Earth is your problem? Where is Della? Kaden! Kaden!!
I paid no heed to his tantrums and walked into my room.
~~~~~~
Antonio: Did they fight?
Jose: Only God can understand him!
Antonio: Where are you going?
Jose: Wherever the heck I want!
Antonio: I am leaving the dream in this house.

With Belen and Victoria;
Victoria is singing while Belen is playing the guitar
Victoria: Asi que pasaran los anos, la vida, paSara la corriente y mi camino se hara indiferente como aquella. Cancion, y esta sera la ultima carta que escribo de cuerpo presente, hoy me despido diciendo bonito mientras duro.
Belen: Canten conmigo esta cancion que dice: si me ven, que me vean. You voy sigiendo mi camino, sigo mi tarea.
Antonio: Great! Those women are fucking drunk! Man, my lady has got some moves. Ah, she can sing. Left-right. Right-left. Darn, she is sexy. She is not sleeping tonight that I'm sure of.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later on...
Diana
Bartender: I'm afraid I need to see your ID, sweetie.
Diana: Silly me, there you are.
Bartender: Enjoy your drink.
Diana: Will do.
Jose, who watched the scene unfold, walked up to Diana.
Jose: Fake. Your ID is fake.
Diana: Shh! Be quiet, will ya?
Jose: What if I am not?
Diana: I will end you then pack up your bones and send them to America with no return address.
Jose: Whoa! Easy there, bonita.
Diana: What's your name?
Jose: Jose De Santo.
Diana: Are you Spanish?
Jose: Yes.
Diana: Why are you in England?
Jose: I like the weather?
Diana: Funny. I'm Diana Medina.
Jose: I know who you are.
Darn! Ugh, man! Why cant I enjoy one night out?!
Jose: are those men your bodyguard?
Diana: Do something!! They drive me nuts!
Jose: Come with me.
He grabbed my hands and pulled me into the Men's restroom?
Diana: Really? Men's bathroom? This is disgusting!
Jose: Your bodyguard wont search for you here, bonita. Shh, I hear footsteps.
Diana: Someone is coming! Please, kiss me!
Jose: What the...
I didn't let him finish his statement while I slammed my lips against his. Talk about sparks. After a few seconds, he whispered into the kiss.
Jose: I think they left. We can stop.
Diana: Shut up!
Jose: Bonita hermosa.
Diana: Now talk, how do you know mw?
Jose: You are beautiful, I couldn't help but notice you.
Diana: Stop with the sweet talks, I am not interested.
Jose: You bet your ass I am interested.
Diana: You cant mess with me, my brother will chop your head off and his friends will bury you alive afterwards.
Jose: Ah, you almost got me intimidated. My brother has his eyes on your bestfriend.
Diana: Della!
It only took me a second to pull out my gun and point it at Jose.
Diana: Your brother kidnapped her!
Jose: Whoa! Put that gun down before shit gets ugly.
Diana: Tell me where she is!
Jose: She is coming back tomorrow, relax okay?
Diana: Why should I believe you?
Jose: My brother wont let her go.
Diana: You said she was coming home tomorrow!
Jose: She is, but that doesn't mean he is going to forget about her. We can help her out.
Diana: We?
Jose: Yeah, you and me, bonita mia. So far, we did a great job, do you not agree?
Diana: What on Earth do you want?
Jose: Let's get out of here.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Della
Della: Freaking sun, will you stop shining on me?
Bodyguard: Good morning, Miss Della.
Della: It's morning indeed. Good? I do not think so. Where is Kaden?
Bodyguard: He gave instructions to drive you back.
Della: Sure he did. I want a glass of water first, please.
Bodyguard: I will get it for you.
Della: Add ice to it and mint.
'Spoiled little brat! I am a bodyguard, not a waiter.' The bodyguard thought.
Della: Wait! I want tonic water. Why are you still staring at me?
Bodyguard: Just because.
Della: Get me my tonic water!!
Time Skip
Walking into the my room, I decided to change my clothes to a pair of dark blue washed jeans, and a white sweater with a pair of high heeled black bootie with peep toe. I walked into the stable to greet the love of my life.
Della: Hey, love. Are you bored? I am to be fair.
Belen: The horse is not going to answer you.
Della: No shit?
Belen: El Patron left the city.
Della: When is he coming back?
Belen: When he wants, I guess.
Della: Why are you so bitter out of nowhere?
Belen: Your fundraiser is over. I am sweet only when I get money from you.
Della: I do have money; my family is rich. Once I get home, I will write you a check. Now please save your bitterness for later. I am not in the mood.
Belen: Whoa, why are you upset?
Della: Here we go, you switched fasted than I breathe.
Belen: Drop the sarcasm, talk if you want or leave me alone.
This woman is unbelievable.
Della: I'm leaving tomorrow.
Belen: But you said you'd stay for the month. What is the rush?
Della: Upset that you cannot rip more money from me?
Belen: Shut up and spill the beans. How on Earth is he letting you go? His brother is not out of the prison yet.
Della: Just like that. He left a message for me saying tomorrow I am free to go home.
Belen: Butterflies do not walk, neither do you go off that gate without a good reason.
Della: I will help Kaden, he is returning the favor.
Belen: Favor my ass, he is just minding his own interests. Don't worry, I've got you. I worked here long enough, and I know a few things.
Della: I'll make sure to write a big fat check for ya.
Belen: Deal.
Della: Deal!

Kaden
Kaden: Tomorrow Della is coming back to you.
Finn: Who are you?
Kaden: I'm Della's friend, buddy.
Finn: Della is MINE.
Kaden: I know, do not worry about it. Can we all be friends, mate?
Finn: No.
Kaden: I see. You don't like me.
Finn: No.
Kaden: Why do you like Della then?
Finn: Della knows Finn is not a bad person
Kaden: Mm, of course, you are not a bad person, buddy. Della is very fond of you, she speaks highly of you.
Finn: Does she miss Finn?
Kaden: Very much.
Finn: Okay, now leave.
~~~~~~~
Jane: Finn! Finn! Oh, here you are. I was so scared. My precious boy, let's go back to your parents.
Finn: Della is coming back tomorrow.
Jane: Who told you that?
Finn: The man behind me.
Jane: Sweetie...
Finn: Where is he?
Jane: I don't see anyone, love. Let's just go back. Your dad is looking for you.
Finn: I want to go home and wait for Della.
Jane: Of course.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Antonio: Why are you following her little brother? Right, don't answer that.
Kaden: Get the plane ready.
Antonio: What is going on? Where are we going?
Kaden: Spain.
Antonio: No!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day;
Della.
Victoria: The driver is waiting for you, honey. It is time for you to go.
Why do I feel like something is not right?
Della: I am ready.
