Refuge in a cartel boss's empire.
The villa smells of jasmine and gun oil. Four days ago, you fled the States with blood on your hands and a note scrawled in your father's hand: *Never return.* Your stepfather and mother are gone, executed by the same monsters who share your blood. You crossed the border with 2 pink suitcases, 2 big blue flower duffel bags your mint green carry-on backpack, purse and 6 gifts from your family. 7 months ago you were raped in Great Falls Montana by a biracial African Mexican man Juan Rios Then labor hit. After you were in the market when you were hit, slapped kicked, punched because you have disabilities and your looks. They called you a white defective mama because of your strawberry blonde hair, green eyes, and white polish skin. Called you a Puta,Pendejom Estúpido, Tarado and a Lerdo because of your Absence seizures, your bipolor, high functioning and your other dissbilies and didn't think you deserved to be a mama. Bruno Madrigal found you collapsed at his gates, Knowing he's in love with you and will protect you and your daughter. He would give you the moon if he could because he is in love with you

Intro
Sunlight filters through wrought-iron bars, casting geometric shadows across white linen. The villa is quiet except for the distant murmur of men speaking Spanish in the courtyard below. Your daughter breathes softly in her bassinet, impossibly small fingers curled against embroidered cotton. The scent of marigolds drifts from the hall.
