I look for the first aid kit to hand it to Gin who runs the two braids down her back. He barks orders at me to give him everything he occupies, Leone moves impatiently trying to find his other brother.

“Throw away the alcohol,” he hands me the uncapped bottle. The damn ones didn't give me the other bottle.

—Miss, we don't know where you are...

-Long! —Salvatore screams, blood overflowing from his wound, his lip trembling—. If you know where it is, if I die I'll kill you all.

“Lie down and stop fighting,” I scold him. That's an order.

With a hand full of blood he catches my chin in his hands, applying force.

—You and I have a pending conversation.

"Yes, I'm sure," I say bluntly. Don't even think about touching me with other people's blood again.

—Do you prefer mine, Emily?

His smile twists, Ginevra pushes him away.

—Stay still or you'll heal yourself.

He doesn't pay attention to him, he looks at me the whole time.

-I asked you a question.

"Are you trying to intimidate me?" Don't do it, don't look for holes in my head to put yourself in and then have me at your mercy because it won't be like that." I stand up suddenly. Your blood or that of others will continue to do the same thing in me. Disgust.

—Meg...

I don't let him speak, I pass by Leone who is still pacing and talking too fast. I go out pushing the very air that intends to return me to that place where he is.

—Emily!

I don't listen to him, I run towards the stairs feeling stupid because I couldn't see my mistake for a long time. I depended on Fabian in every way while he only depended on me financially. He never loved me, he pretended all the time and like the brute that he was, I went and believed him.

—Do you want my semen or Parker's?

—Fabian, you know I don't like it...

"That doesn't interest me, no one cares about you, Emily," he replied with the intention of harming me. I asked you a question.

"It makes me sick that you're trying to force me to swallow his semen, it's no use choosing if you do whatever it takes with me." I stood up suddenly. I'm fed up.

—And why haven't you gotten out of my life? —He inquired airily—. Because you need me, without me you don't live, you don't breathe, you're a damn addict to being taken care of like a damn child because daddy has...

-Shut up now!!

I ran out without daring to face my problems, that's how I return to my room feeling that all this time I have had a problem with myself that I won't know if I can deal with.

Dependent as a drug addict.

Spoiled by a deception that is difficult for me to overcome.

In need of love and affection because no one really loves me.

Nobody.
