Revenge And Love Against My Mafia Ex-Husband
Chapter 4

"Get up, give me one more round," Angelo thought he heard his boxing trainer say, "you're the best, don't let there be a dogfight."

He jumped back to his feet, hitting with a hook one of the thugs that were shooting at the woman's car, and pushed another one, he ran under the garbage cart giving a bounce, he heard the noise of the friction of metal against metal and cans against cement, he watched as the garbage collection vehicle wobbled a little, and the woman's car came out of a small space at full speed, throwing sparks. Please help me, I'll give you anything you want," Angelo begged, one of the few pleas of his life.

The car jerked to a stop: -let's go fast, run, - heeded, he ran to the vehicle and without asking or asking to open one of the doors, he climbed in through a window, ordering: -please start.

The vehicle screeched again, the accelerator pedal seemed like it was going to come off because of so much pressure, the projectiles brushed the cans, raising the tension, she turned the first corner, then the other, without thinking about the destination, the man told her: -that way; -pointing to a crossroad, it was perfect to mislead and the streets were almost empty, -brake, turn off the lights! -said the man and she parked the car and crouched behind the steering wheel, some cars passed by the side of the car, they hid there motionless, their eyes met:

Wow, an angel saved my life," he said smiling at her, and that smile cultivated her heart, "you saved my life, be sure that I will repay you in the best way you want, gold, diamonds, even me.

-It's a good offer," she answered him, looking at him, although her face was dirty and full of blood, her eyes fascinated him and she had a something, I don't know what, I don't know where, -but calm down my friend, I did what any person in my place would do. -You know better than that, around here people, if they see that they are going to kill someone, they run to save their own skin," I answered staring at her, without noticing that they were approaching little by little. -We don't all act that way," he answered biting his lip without meaning to.

-You should accept all my thanks and me as a reward, -his gaze now danced from her eyes to her mouth, he couldn't hold himself and grabbed her waist, forgetting all the frantic scene he had just lived, she lost her will, she let herself go, throwing herself head first into the void, she felt his breathing, tickling her palate, melting her, she didn't reason that of caressing herself with a stranger and who knows how far they would go in that dark and lonely place, time seemed to stop, mouths ready, tongues thirsty, bodies full of gunpowder about to explode and everything was ruined with the sound of her cell phone.

-It may be urgent, wait I answer... friend... yes I'm coming... I had an accident... yes I'm ok... I'm close... I think so... bye... bye... bye..,

-Well, where were we," he said, bringing his face closer to her.

-No, that's not a good idea, you're a stranger, I somehow saved your life," she said, dodging his attack,

Wait, we can get to know each other, my name is Angelo and you? -she extended her hand smiling.

That name brought back bitter memories, he had the same name as her ex-husband, it is a coincidence that that name was common in Sicily, but not here in Bogota, that could be a trap of his family, although very elaborate, she decided to be cautious giving him a false name:

-my name is Maria, -I grab his hand and kiss him on the side of his mouth, -Where shall I take you, Mr. Angelo?

-Please leave me where I can get a cab, give me your number, I promise to give you another car, this one is already in pieces, -and she gave him a fake number, a cab passed by and stopped because of the horn concert.

-Bye Maria, I wish I was your Jose," she said saying goodbye and tried to do it with a peck on the mouth, getting only the cheek.

The inauguration party of the new bar of her friend Mía, was in a very exclusive area, in the 85, the T zone; it dazzled, full of luxuries, fashionable singers and many beautiful women adorned the night, her best friend placed this bar with the pretext of being with her, since her father was the head of the oil company of this country, all were perplexed to see her arrive, the music was silenced.

Ximena, are you all right," her friend Mía ran out to greet her.

-Yes, of course, very well if I were to tell you,

-Look at you, look," Mía pointed to her damaged car, it seemed like a miracle that she had made it that far, and she was full of dirt and dust.

-I thought they were giving me a good reception, I think I heard it was a costume party, I come disguised as a tragedy.

-I brought a change dress for you, I know you and I'm already prepared, besides I have another surprise for you.

-Friend, as long as it's not another man, everything is fine," said Ximena shaking bits of glass out of her hair.

-We'll see, Ximena, you can't be without a boyfriend forever.

The party was wonderful, the attendants enjoyed non-stop, Ximena decided to forget what happened and danced alone in the center of the dance floor, with a tight dress that Mía lent her, which caused her to get all the looks, she for a moment under the lights, she dreamed that she was dancing with the man she saved, she imagined him clean and beautiful.

Friend come look, I introduce you to someone -her friend Mía, brought a man on the hook.

-Mia, I've told you until I've had enough, I'm a married woman," she said, pretending to be annoyed.

-You're separating yourself, still married, but not caped," she said smiling, pulling her friend into the light so she could see his face.

-Hello, nice to meet you, my name is Ximena," she stretched out her hand to see him well, she loved that foreign bearing, erasing the effort to please her friend.

-My name is Angelo, but they call me DR D," he said when he recognized her, she was his savior, now he didn't know why she introduced herself with another name. -I'll call you D, if you don't mind, I have a trauma with Angelo," she said laughing a lot.

I thought you would ask what I have a doctorate in.

-Well, here in Colombia they call anyone a doctor.

-Many people have called me a neighbor, but not a doctor.

Doctor of what? -asked Ximena, looking at his eyes.

-In psychology, besides I teach at the Javeriana University.

-Wow, another coincidence to that university, I'm going to enter to study and to that career," he reflected out loud biting his lips.
