To Live Under a Curse
I am Cedrick Mondragon, owner of almost all the most important businesses in the city, they belong to me. One of them is Mondragon Enterprises.
I am associated with an old family friend, the company consists of the production of fine porcelain, worked, carved, and hand-painted.
I also have various properties such as five-star hotels, I own some private airports and many more small businesses.
I run several charitable foundations for children in extreme poverty. Others benefit people with cancer, both foundations bear my last name.
...Mondragon...
The cut of my hair is in accordance with my profile, well-defined, thick eyebrows, the blue color of my eyes marks a somewhat ruthless look. My height is 6'3" I have a super well-toned body that I work on daily, although I seem like a cold man, without feelings, I am quite the opposite, only if they make me angry, they could know my dark side.
I live outside the city, in an old mansion. It can be seen from the side of the road.
From a distance, the house gives the impression that nobody lives there. Its old unpainted walls, the gardens are neglected, the trees are unpruned, it is as if it were an abandoned place.
I decided to go live there many years ago, when I was just a teenager of only 15 years old, my arrogance, and my bad heart.
I was always my mothers' favorite, and I believed that I had the world at my feet and that I could do whatever I wanted, I humiliated and despised poor people. Or whoever stood in front of me, for the mere fact of addressing me.
The imprudence led me to run into an old woman, who asked me for a few coins and, of course, I denied them to her and she cursed me.
"By day you will be human, by night you will be a beast, you will turn into a Wolf. Not with all the money in the world, you will be able to buy the true love of a woman to break the spell."
Those were the words of that old woman, I simply turned around and continued on my way, leaving the old woman almost speechless. When I got home I immediately went to my room, when I put my hand in one of the pockets of my pants, I found a spooky bracelet.
That even at that moment I did not understand, what it could be used for and today I am paying the consequences.
While watching that bracelet, I thought about the words of that woman for almost the whole day, I thought it was a joke, I did not give it much importance, because who can believe in the words of a dirty and filthy old woman, but since then. When night falls I become a Werewolf and on full moon nights I have to be chained up, so as not to attack people or commit any atrocities.
I am about to turn almost 30 years old and, as the old woman or witch said, I don't know what she is anymore.
But what is certain. I have not been able to find true love, the only woman I loved died of cancer. She was the only one who could stop this curse.
It is midday, the sun is hotter than other days, you can hear the noise of the cars passing by, the shouts of the people who offer their products to the customers who pass through that market, it is located on the outskirts of the city, where is the diner where a girl works, as a kitchen helper and serving tables, she is Lina.
I am Lina. I am 22 years old, I work in a small diner, in a market.
I have been working for more than five years since my father got sick and died, I took care of all the expenses, I work all day, now I only have one goal, to be able to go to university.
Despite how poorly cared for Lina is, the color of her skin is white, her long blonde hair shines more with the rays of the sun, she has an impressive gray eye color, that just by looking at her it is as if they spoke for themselves, her thin, very well-defined lips.
