EPISODE 2
????CORA ????
” Red Rose”
” Red Rose ”
” Red Rose ! ”
The crowd chanted as I stared at my opponent in the ring .
Drops of sweat rolling down from my face into my top .
I wiped the blood on the corner of my lips and threw a punch at the Girl as she staggered and tried to gain her balance,I took her unaware punching the living day lights out of her .
She groaned in pain as she fell to the floor . I heard the crowd raw in excitement and they separated us right in time before I smashed life out of her .
” That’s enough …” I felt a male hand pull me away immediately.
” Control yourself Corazon ” he whispered as I glared daggers at him .
” Get out of the ring ” he said and I took a deep breath in and out then moved out of the ring .
He walked with me as the crowd roared crazily ,we moved out of the illegal fighters Den .
“Corazon ….” He trailed and I turned immediately.
” It’s Cora , I hope I don’t have to repeat myself Crisanto ,you should be careful with the way you jump into the ring during my fights ” I warned angrily and he rubbed his neck .
” Learn to control yourself Cora …with the way you’re going …papatay ka ng tao kapag nagpatuloy ka sa ganito [ you’re going to kill ] he spat in Filipino.
” Ingatan mo ang bibig mo habang kausap ako Crisanto [ watch your mouth ]
I spat and he raised both hands in surrender.
” I’m just watching out for you …” He trailed and I looked away as I threw my boxing gloves at the opposite side .
” Tell me about my schedule ” I said and he raised his eyebrows.
” I thought ,you would get some rest just as ma’am Dolores …” He trailed and shut up immediately when he noticed my icy look .
” Understood ” he said and I looked away as I strolled towards my Car .
He got in and I gave a nod as my driver …moved towards my Estate ,I leaned on the Car seat as I closed my eyes .
Bl***d
Screams and Tears was all I saw ,as it flash in front of me over and over again .
I rubbed my arms as I tried to control my Emotions ,I saw my opponent back in the ring and how I had left her in a near death experience.
I’m evil ….
I’m not a good person ,that’s all I’ve ever done in my life ,leave people in near death experiences ” I thought as I chuckled bitterly.
No matter how I try to hide who I am and blend into a normal life ,my past always comes knocking.
Crime always seeks my attention and I end up getting my hands more dirty than they already are that’s what’s keeping me from having a normal life .
I’ve killed a lot of people , the bad …the good …” I thought as my heart squeezed in hurt .
” Are you okay Ma’am ? Crisanto asked and I ignored him throughout the ride to my Estate .
I moved up to goom immediately I got into the mansion and as I got under the shower .
I stripped off from my clothes and watched as the cold water Hit my skin …
Rolling down to my bare breast …down to the Scars on my stomach then my hips and a feeling of disgust filled me as memories of that night clouded my thoughts.
” Let me go ….please ….let me go !
” Shut up your mouth you dirty slvt . I’ve had enough of you and your Smart little mouth ” he screamed and slapped my Cheeks hard .
I staggered in fear as I fell to the ground , I moved backwards Which made my silk skirt roll upwards , exposing my Skin .
I cried in disgust at the dirty look he threw in my direction.
This was an older man ,my own Aunt’s husband , someone that was supposed to protect me .
He’s always been a drunking bastard ,but I was young …young enough to be his own daughter.
” I’d be a good girl if I where you Nicole ” he called my birth name as he laughed a Sinister laugh he bent to my level and trailed his dirty fingers on my skin.
” Please …..don’t do this ….” I pleaded as I shook in fear and he tore my dress .
I didn’t give up as I screamed at the top of my voice ,cry and trash trying to escape the beast who had me beneath him .
I cried for my mom … pleading for just anyone to rescue me from the grip of this animal .
He knew I was stubborn …he knew I had a fighting spirit and to get to me he needed to break that spirit .
I felt him k*ck punch and I couldn’t hear my own screams anymore as I fought for freedom .
” Please. ..” I mouthed as I felt a sharp pain over and over again on my Stomach down my hips and I felt the liquid roll down from the burns and that’s when I knew he had
Placed a scar on me .
I lay lifeless as I watched him use me for his pleasure , my mom wasn’t there to save me because she’d told me to run away from home …
Away from my father ….”I thought as I bit my lower lip .
Corazon Nicole Bermundo I’ve always been a mystery to all those who knew me and a nightmare to my Enemies .
I’ve been on the run for years not until the De Luca’s brought an end to my father’s Empire and In Exchange for freedom , I Swore an Oath to protect the mafia .
I signed a Contract With The Don of the Italian Mafia And I’ve been in the business doing the dirty work for years now .
While he helped me trace the one man whom I want to bring to justice .
The man who ruined my life and everything that ever made me happy .
Mikoy Reyes , he was a self consceding B*stard who cared about no one other than himself.
A drug Dealer ,a serial killer and a gambler …aside from the ba`stard that he has always been ,I knew he had his hands involved in something even bigger right from time .
It all started when my mom worked for Mr Bermundo who at that time was already married with two sons .
Salvardo and Kelvin Bermundo .
Although my father was known for his dirty and sinful Deeds , he was a good man who just didn’t do things right .
One of those things was when he tried to trick the De Luca’s with a deal that could bring an end to them .
The worse thing was he had those deals on papers .
I was a product of my mother’s love affair with Mr Bermundo and when his wife found out about me and her husband’s love for me , she planned for me to be killed.
So my mom sent me away to her sister and right before I left , my Dad gave me the files which he told me will protect me some day .
His son Salvador killed my mom alongside our Father in his quest to become Don .
But he needed those papers , and because of those papers I had to be on the run .
Moving to my aunt’s place was the worse thing to have happened to me ,she was a Vunerable and submissive Wife who had me die in the hands of her abusive husband.
She knew everything Mikoy did to me and never spoke up , all the did was take me to the hospital and promise me safety which she never provided .
I clenched my fists as the thoughts filled my mind .
Trusting people has always been hard for me because each time I did ,it left me broken beyond repair.
I had to run away …it hurt but I did ,I began to fend for myself ,I saw myself through school and graduated with a Business degree .
I changed my name from Corazon to Cora and I stopped using my surname and maiden name Nicole .
I met my bestfriend Bella and when she got involved with Kristov things started getting out of hand especially when I found out his involvement with the mafia .
The De Luca’s won over my evil step Brothers and they where killed ,I handed the files over to the De Luca’s and although no one knows.
The Don Massimo changed the Deal . Since my Father’s Sister Dolores now handles the business ,I’m his eyes in the Familia .
Dolores of course doesn’t want to see me with her eyes , considering the fact that she See’s as an illegitimate Daughter of the family and the cause of Her nephews death .
As I wrapped a towel around my waist and got out of the water ,I changed into Formal wears and light make up .
My phone rang immediately with a private number. I smirked as I picked it up .
Only one person calls with a private number and who else would it be if not the Don .
” Don ” I said immediately I picked up .
” Where are you ? Newyork or the Philippines ? He asked and I bit my lower lip.
There’s a job again ,I knew it from the way he sounded .
A job meant going to Italy and Going to Italy means living in the De Luca estate .
And living in the De Luca estate meant seeing the one person I don’t want to be entaggled with.
The one man whom I’ve hurt over and over again .
Dylan De Luca .
I rubbed my forehead as my mind drifted to the last time I saw him .
In Emelio’s Wedding with his Fiancee and their kid , I had gone to the wedding because I had a business meeting to attend in Sicily later .
I was happy for him ,happy he had moved on with Ivy …
That was something I would never be able to give him .
True happiness …after everything Mikoy did to me ,the nurses confirmed I will never birth a child .
And with my life signed over to the mafia , my many secrets and dirty past .
I didn’t wanna complicate his life more than it already was .
I’m not someone he should want ,and I’m not supposed to want happiness .
I’ve forgotten how to be happy,I’m just patiently waiting for the day I die serving.
And Dylan shouldn’t be with a woman who has no freedom .
Ivy has that freedom which I can never give him .
I’m not heartless ..I’m not a bad Person . I’ve just learned not to be selfish and use my heart less .
If pushing him away would make him make him move on and live happily ,then so be it .
” Corazon ” I had the Don call .
” Don” I answered as he dropped my line of work this time around.
