Chapter Thirteen

By the end of April, Lucía had already paid off forty percent of the debt she owed her father.

Aaron observed the way the girl worked hard each day and returned home exhausted to cook and clean Aaron’s new apartment. Guilt eventually etched his body and he realized that all he wanted to do was make things easier for her.

“Why don’t we meet up with your papa sometime this week?” he asked Lucía as she stirred a pot of Spanish rice for their dinner.

Her eyes widened and turned around to face Aaron.

“My papa? Why?”

Aaron sighed.

“You are not like yourself, Lucía. I can tell it has a lot to do with the fact you haven’t spoken to your papa in almost three months.”

She turned around, trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall. Stirring the pot of rice, she stifled back her tears. That’s when she felt his hand on her shoulder, rubbing it in slow circles in an attempt to soothe her.

“It’s okay, baby, if you aren’t ready to see him again,” he murmured against her ear.

Lucía softly said, “I want to see him but…I know he doesn’t want to see me. I know he wants nothing to do with me.”

“You don’t know that-“

Lucía retorted angrily, “He whipped me naked in front of all of you guys. He yelled at me and gave me away to you. He doesn’t give one fuck about me, Aaron! I’m a disappointment; a failure. A reminder of my mother.”

Aaron said nothing but did not remove his hand from her shoulder. Instead he wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed himself against her body.

“If he don’t give one fuck about you then why did he ask me how you were doing a few nights ago?” he whispered into her ear.

Her heart began pounding harder.

“He asked about me?” she whispered, her hands shaking.

“Yes, niñita.”

Lucía looked down at her feet, feeling different emotions run through her veins. She couldn’t believe her father was actually concerned about her; she couldn’t believe he asked Aaron how she was doing. Maybe he wasn’t angry with her anymore. Maybe he’d even pull her into a hug. She felt elated; delighted. She could already feel the warmth of his body against her own as she hugged him. She wondered how much longer she’d have to wait to see him.

Lucía turned around and clutched onto Aaron’s muscular arm.

“Tonight. Let me see him tonight.”

Aaron raised an eyebrow. “Tonight?”

“Yes. I want to see him tonight, Aaron,” she said, a smile gracing her face as she looked into his eyes. “Please.”

Aaron scratched his head nervously. “Of course I don’t mind, niñita but tonight I had plans with the rest of the guys. I would have to take you to the den and that’s dangerous.”

“But it’ll be worth it. I won’t be there long. I just want to talk to my papa as soon as possible. I miss him, Aaron,” she said, a tear trickling down her cheek.

Aaron looked down at her distressed face,
