Obsession and desire

EGYPT

Camille had completely become a slave to Brett, he began to control each of her movements, since his sister was not there, it was easier for him to manipulate her, making her stay in his mansion, or he would stay in at her house, but at no time did he leave her alone, she didn't even flinch anymore, because she was completely drugged all the time, whenever he could, he took the opportunity to make her drink a medicine that worked in her favor, so that she would be more submissive, he had complete control over Camille. The long-awaited trip to Egypt arrived, to which she did not want to go, but since recently, Brett had forced her to attend, when she arrived in this country, everything was totally new to her, before her eyes it was something beautiful that had never been in the world. life she had imagined living, but she knew that Brett would ruin it, she knew that he drugged her, because she was becoming dependent on what he gave her, however, on this trip, she did not want to be like this. “I want you to leave me alone here in Egypt, I don't want to be subjected to your abuse, to any kind of manipulation you want to subject me to, do you understand?” Camille hadn't faced Brett in a long time, since whenever she tried to do so, he mistreated her. “Calm down dear, you shouldn't talk to me like that, because you already know what can happen to you, but yes, you're right, I'll let you enjoy this trip, after all it's a beautiful place to appreciate it in five senses, but That is if I warn you, that if you do anything stupid, you will remember me. did you understand?” “I no longer care that you threaten me, you have taken everything from me, what could happen to me? Kill me? Well, do it, but I don't want to live any longer under your abuse.” “What are you insinuating? Camille don't go out with something stupid; I'm warning you once and for all” Brett takes her by the neck and squeezes her. “Kill me! Since she gives more, I only care about my sister but nothing that life insurance does not cover, you already took her away from me, I hate you so much, you are a fucking psychopath!!” “Don't talk to me like that Camille, I'm not going to let you” Brett is about to hit her, but luckily for Camille, someone knocks on the bedroom door, and Mario's voice is heard outside.

“Friends, are you there?!” Brett looks at Camille, denying her to keep quiet, she wasn't going to go out at that moment, but she totally omits what he asks and makes herself feel “Yes Mario! Here we are, we're out now” she opens the door and greets him, but this time he wasn't alone, Camille is shocked when she sees the woman who was accompanying him, her face looked similar, but she didn't know where I had seen her, she was a tall woman with light eyes and black hair. “Hello Camille, but it seems that you have seen a ghost” Mario greets her with a kiss on the cheek and claims her. “No Mario, it just takes me by surprise to see you accompanied, is she?” Camille smiles at her companion. “She's my girlfriend, look, let me introduce you to Kiara” Mario points to Keyra, she had done some touch-ups for the trip, she had changed the color of her hair, had a nose job and had put on sunglasses contact, during this time she had changed her complexion, she was less stylized, so it was very difficult to distinguish her, she was a fugitive from justice, so for no reason could she show what she was. Keyra extends her hand to Camille and gives her a fake smile. “Nice to meet you, Kiara Bonet, you're Camille Ibis, right?” “Yes, it's me, I see that they have already told you about me.” “Yes a little, but of course very good things” they are both talking pleasantly, when the door opens, Brett was furious but he had to simulate in front of Mario, although he knew that he was a manipulative and controlling man, he did not know that he had the scope that he was mistreating Camille, much less that he was drugging her, that was something only the two of them knew. “Friends how are you? “Brett comes out the door with his face of few friends. “Well, I thought you weren't going out, shall we go? The ceremony of the best designers in the world is almost starting, I'm dying to see the models” Keyra looks at him suspiciously, but he was joking, he was very much in love with that woman, who was also the queen of manipulation. “Sure, let's go, I take my things, my coat and my bag and we'll go” Camille felt as if that moment were a true miracle, if Mario hadn't arrived at her door, possibly she would be dead, because she

had never seen so enraged and frustrated Brett with his answers. “Go get your things here we'll wait for you” Mario tells the couple, while he caresses his girlfriend, Brett and Camille enter the room again, she approaches the counter and takes her bag, completely avoiding Brett's gaze but he doesn't forget what happened. “One more stupidity like this, and I'm not answering Camille Ibis, remember that you must obey absolutely everything I ask of you”. “I'm not afraid of you Brett, not anymore!” She looks at him defiantly while she pushes him to go out to the reception, when she wasn't drugged, it was easier for her to defend herself from her abuse, so at that moment it was the real her who was facing him. Brett tries to grab her hair, but she looks at him threateningly, and points to the door with her finger, as if reminding her who was outside, what she didn't imagine was that the woman who was accompanying Mario was his worst enemy and very surely, she would enjoy Brett hurting her. They both leave the room, Brett's face showed anger, and Camille also showed some pressure, which Mario and Keyra easily noticed. “Something happens?” Mario asks them “Nothing, friend, I want to kiss my girlfriend, but sometimes she resists so that her lipstick doesn't run, you know how I die for her kisses, right my love?” “Yes my love” Camille says that in the most ironic way possible. They all go to the reception room, a fashion show was coming, one of the main designers of that show was Gretta, Andy's girlfriend, he had agreed to go on the trip, but it was far from the fact that the guests were going to be your worst enemies. “I'm so happy that you decided to accompany me on this journey that is so important to me. It's one of my biggest design exhibitions, thank you very much, my love” Gretta was sitting next to Andy in the first rows of the stage, she was completely happy, In addition, he had managed to convince him, in front of them there were four free positions on the other side of the stage, shortly before Andy's eyes, those four positions were occupied. Camille enters first, behind her Brett, then Mario and finally “Kiara”. Andy when he realizes who was occupying those places, he feels a chill run through his body, he felt like he was seeing ghosts, he

couldn't explain what he was feeling, in front of him were his worst enemies, his ex-love, and that woman who It was the living reflection of Keyra, if it weren't for the fact that she had died, he could swear that it was her. Her face pales and she clear her throat trying to get the attention of Gretta who is talking to another woman from her class. “Gretta, I have to go get some water, I'll be right back”. “But Andy, the parade is almost starting, how are you going to leave?” “I need to breathe for two minutes, I'll be right back” she nods and without suspicion of anything continues entertaining in the conversation with the other woman, meanwhile Andy almost leaves, running towards the bathrooms, he couldn't believe that he was on the other side of the world He had found them, this trip was to clear his head, not to live the suffering of seeing the love of his life in the arms of another man, it also worried him where the other woman who was with Mario had come from. Camille, at that moment she felt like going to the bathroom, so she wanted to go too, but she wanted to do it alone. “I'll be right back; I'm going to the bathroom- She puts her hand on Brett's shoulder warning him” “I'm with you” “Brett I need to "urinate" in a private space, can I do it alone?” “I don't like that you're alone out there, I'm going with you”. "Let me go alone Brett, damn it, or I'll start screaming in front of the whole world, regardless of whether the devil himself comes to finish me off." Camille was determined on that trip, she had refrained from eating anything he offered her, that's why she knew that she was not drugged and was stronger. He looks at her with anger, he knew that she was a very strong woman when she could, but at that moment he was not in the right place to be able to control her, but he knew that with a single call he would make her at his feet, because he was at his feet. charge of the only thing she loved at that moment, her sister. “You know dear, don't even think about doing anything stupid”.

"I won't do it, dearie," she gets out of there, gives a smile to her classmates who were entertained looking at the decoration and she goes straight to the bathroom, she hadn't been alone for a long time, and she felt a breather, she was too pressured by Brett. When he got to the bathroom, he felt his breath catch when he saw the figure coming from the men's bathroom, he remembered the first time he saw him, and he was squirming, he thought it was a hallucination, maybe the drugs he had given him Brett had been given in the past days had affected his subconscious. Andy's gaze also met hers, they both stared at each other, they didn't know what to do, they didn't imagine that they were going to find themselves on the other side of the world. “Camille! What are you doing here?” he asks her with great surprise and of course with nerves, his voice was trembling, she was different, she was thinner, paler, she was a little more finished than he remembered her, while he was still just as pristine, he had recovered his figure, his beard lock was in perfect position, his hair tidy, his clothing perfect, she can't help but look at him with love, because she still felt a lot of love for him. “That same question, what are you doing here?” he just smiles at her to break the ice. “I am accompanying Gretta, she is one of the main designers, I imagine that you are accompanying Brett, all the most famous businessmen in the city were invited to this great event” Andy responds sarcastically. “If you're not mistaken, I'm accompanying him”. “Camille, are you okay?” Andy approaches her and caresses her with his hand on the arm, Camille knew that Brett was not going to take long to appear there, and if he saw her with Andy, she would have the worst of them problems, so she pretends that nothing happens. “Yes, I'm fine, I have to go.” “It was really nice to see you, I hope you have a great time, Camille.” “And you, Andy, it was nice to see you too” he smiled at her, leaving her there, but Camille knew that she had to tell him what was happening, but that was not the moment, however, she would take advantage of the trip. "Andy! I have something to tell you” She yells at him as he advances, stops, and turns to look at

her. “Tell me” “I can't tell you here, look, I'm in the hotel across the street, please see me in the back of the hotel at 9 at night, please don't fail me, it really is something urgent.” He just looks at her and can't believe what he was saying, she didn't understand what she would have to tell him, it even seemed a bit cheeky to her, but she was going to keep the appointment, she had nothing to lose. “I'll be there” he answers with a subdued voice and goes straight to his post, Camille enters the women's bathrooms, she was a sea of nerves, she didn't know if Brett had realized what she had done with Andy, now I had to find a way to go with him at night, I had to talk to him. She uses the bathroom when she needs it, she touches up her makeup a bit and goes out, when her executioner was already waiting for her. “Why did you take so long?” Brett stands in front of her as if he was going to hit her right then and there “Take it easy! I had a little hard on her stomach, I'm not obligated to give you more details” she comes out sarcastic. “You are very cute, aren't you?” Brett gives her a blow from behind that barely makes her lose her breath, she took advantage of a loneliness in the corridor to do it, she stops her step, and he passes by her, she could only curse to herself, but it was clear to him that he had to get even for everything he was doing to him. They both return to their positions, Camille looks ahead and realizes that Andy was next to Gretta, Mario and Brett had already noticed and of course Keyra, Brett was furious with Camille, he was determined to do what he wanted. out with her, she didn't care where she was and she knew that if he did something to her no one was going to ask about her, one of the advantages that he hadn't let her have a deeper social life and that she didn't have a family. The looks between Andy and Camille crossed most of the time, although she did everything possible to simulate and feign a false interest in the parade, between the two there was a complicity, but above all a discomfort for not being each where they wanted be next to each other.
