Chapter 34 Regina

• I've only ever kissed one man in my life... No. There was a time when I kissed countless boys just to make Christian jealous and he had to forcefully pull me off them. Back then, it didn't matter who they were. I don't remember their names or faces. To me, they were only tools I used to get what I wanted. But what's more surprising is that now I've forgotten Christian's kisses too. Not just that but also his touch. The memories are there but the feelings behind them are gone. Now all I can think about is the way Federico kissed me. The way his mouth moved over mine and how he awakened feelings I thought were long dead. If he hadn't pulled back, I don't know how long I would have let him continue.
• Saying I didn't see it coming would be a lie. I think everyone knows there's something going on between us. The rumors about our relationship in tabloid magazines and social media weren't baseless. Even Rita, my secretary is always trying to set us up. And it's not like Federico made any effort to hide his feelings. I've known for a while now but I chose to ignore it. Simply because I don't have the time for flings or relationships and he's the last person I want to get involved with. I like the way we are. The mutual understanding we have. Not enemies but also not friends. I trust him with my daughter's life but that's it.
• Bullshit!
