Book:The devil’s new plaything Published:2025-2-9

RAPHAEL’S POINT OF VIEW
This should be interesting, I wonder who she would pick; her daughter or her lover, I am actually genuinely curious.
I watch her intensely, this Sanchez girl, it’s funny because I watched her grow up, I watched all of them grow up well almost all of them except the little girl Ava. She seems like a nice kid it’s such a shame that she would be dead soon, they would all be dead soon regardless of who Valentina picks, I am just interested in her choice, I am always interested in how the human mind works.
Her choice does not mean I would not take my revenge anyway. They all die anyway, every single one of them, I like a clean job that’s why I get things done by myself… most of the time.
“Clock is ticking Valentina, thirty seconds more.” There’s tears in her eyes, she looks from Diego to Ava with the gun in her hand. Her daughter Ava looks scared I can’t blame the five years old. Ahhh Drama, I love it.
“Shoot me.” Diego said frantically to Valentina, that fool always putting his life on the line for others, I am disappointed. I have always been disappointed in him but now I am more disappointed.
“Do it now!” He commanded through gritted teeth, it seems like he really has a death wish, I will grant his wish but not now, I need Valentina to obviously pick her daughter, I need Diego to know that nobody would ever love him as completely as me and his mother did, I need him to realize that nobody can love him like his family.
Everything I have ever done I have done for Diego, all those punishments those beating it’s so he becomes stronger, nobody can ever love him the way I do, a father’s love surpasses all. Diego is going to learn that fact before I of course kill him and his dearly beloved.
“The clock is ticking love, choose now and choose wisely.” I said, this is a good game I should probably play it more often. The maid’s daughter looks terrified, she is so skittish and jumpy, I wonder what my sons like about her, I still wonder why they fought over her the way they did. I had a taste of that pussy of hers and I can tell you for free, it’s not that special so how did she have that hold on my twin sons Damian and Diego? why is Diego now willing to lay his life down for her and her daughter? why was Damian so willing to betray his brother and the rest of his family to get this pathetic maid’s daughter?
“Valentina if you choose me I will never forgive you.” Diego said again, he looks like he is about to grab the gun from Valentina and end his life himself. The sight of him makes me sick to my stomach, I sure as hell did not set out to raise such a pathetic fool who is willing to lay down his life for a girl!
“I choose myself, I will shoot myself but please let them all go.” Valentina said. Well what do I know? They are both insane, they both have a death wish, I guess it is safe to say that Diego’s crazy has found its match in Valentina. She aimed the gun at her own head, would she actually do it?…
YARA’S POINT OF VIEW
The more I stay in this island the more I realize just how wrong everything is, I slowly start to realize just how wrong my life is, how wrong the fact that I had loved Raphael is.
When it’s the only life you have ever lived you actually never see anything wrong with it until you dissociate from that reality a bit or until you see people with lives similar to yours.
I have seen girls like me, I thought Amelia was the only one but she isn’t, their stories are similar to mine, the abuse, the manipulation, everything except from the closeness I felt with Raphael.
With the other girls he is this powerful figure that abuses them, there’s no intimacy involved, it’s all just flesh action but with me it was a lot more complicated than that. I thought… he is… he was my everything, i knew of all the horrible things he does, the abuses but I thought it was just with me, to me it was acceptable when directed at me because I could take it, I thought it meant that he loves me above all.
The anger, him lashing out on me made sense to me, it was love to me, I am starting to learn that that isn’t love, I don’t know what love looks like, I sure as hell don’t know what love feels like but hopefully I find out in my lifetime.
I don’t know what love looks like but at least I know what love isn’t. Abuse isn’t love…
RAPHAEL’S POINT OF VIEW
The bitch Valentina had the gun to her head, I was actually excited to hear the gun go off, I was excited to see her part scattered, I was excited to finish from where she started off by murdering the rest of them but then those stupid police had to butt in, the sound of their sirens was a huge giveaway.
I wasn’t panicked though, far from it, I have most of them on my payroll so I knew not to be panicked but then they walked in and I was actually surprised when they actually came for me.
I had to defend myself so I starting firing, my gun aimed at them, I actually shot one of them that’s when they stopped playing nice, they were out to get me. I shot at the little girl Ava too.
The police are now out to get me but what they don’t know is I would rather end my own life than let them take me and that’s what I did, I climbed to the top of the building and jumped, I hope my death makes the papers, I at least deserve that…
VALENTINA’S POINT OF VIEW
“Ava!” Oh my God she’s bleeding!
“Diego do something!” I yelled in utter panic…
