I Will Not Let You Fall
Bette’s eye twitched. She took her time as she walked closer to Francesca. Now standing right behind Francesca’s chair, Bette raised the clasp-knife and touched the tip of it to the unwitting woman’s cheek before Francesca had time to pull away.
”What the fuck!” the woman exclaimed as she froze momentarily, her eyes wide with apprehension.
Bette drew the sharp blade slowly across the cheek, while everyone at the table watched with bated breath. Putting pressure to the touch and immediately getting a gasp out of Francesca, Bette bent over, inching closer to her ear. ”What is your job and what is not your job will be determined by one person only, and that would be me. Not you, not Billie, not Shane, not Arnodelo. Nobody, but me. Is this clear enough for you?” the brunette spoke, her voice low with menace.
Francesca shook and whimpered, but didn’t utter a word.
Bette let out a dramatic sigh before lowering the knife to Francesca’s throat abrubtly, holding the blade tight around it. ”Did you say something? I must’ve missed it.”
”Yes,” the woman whispered nervously.
”Mm? Still can’t hear you.”
”I said yes, it’s clear! You’re the boss! Fuck!” Francesca cried out in panic.
Bette finally took the knife away from the woman. There was a thin red scrape tracing across Francesca’s cheek and a shallow cut on her throat. Bette pulled a tissue out of her pocket, wiped bits of blood off the knife and handed the tissue to Francesca, who accepted it meekly.
Closing the knife, Bette looked around the table with a vague smile. ”I think it’s time to do your job, partners. I’ll be here, waiting for the update.”
Everyone got out from the table and one by one exited the room.
”Shane,” Bette called her friend.
The short-haired brunette turned around to meet Bette’s gloomy gaze.
”Close the door,” Bette said, taking a seat at the head of the conference table.
Shane did what she was told and took a seat as well. She knew what Bette wanted to talk about, and she felt uneasy about the impending conversation.
”Where’s Helena, Shane?” Bette got straight to the point. She had noticed Helena’s absence at the gang meeting, and she also hadn’t heard from her for awhile, thus she smelled a rat.

Oh god Valerie, i am so happy that you updated again.
The plot thickens, Marcus dead, Bette knowing that Helena is a cop, Melvin at the scene who bailed Bette out of jail, Tina who left Bette but still loves Bette and Bette visiting Tina in the middle of the night and scaring her.
So many things are happening and Bette spiralling out of control due to all of that.
I understand Tina leaving Bette but she is the one that was able to Hold Bette back and now that Bette lost her she doesn’t give a shit what will happen with herself.
I still have faith that somehow everything will end well and held hope out from the story title ” I Will Not Let You Fall ”
Thank you so much for for this incredible story!
Wow Valerie:
What a chapter, poor Bette, poor Tina, they love each other, but it will be hard to stay together if things don’t change; I hope Bette change her life, now that Marcus is dead. But the question is who killed Marcus, I don’t think is the police, maybe he was killed in a mafias’ war, or perhaps is her own boss Dr. Arnodelo, who wanted to intimidate her or to remove Marcus from protecting Bette, at the end the same Arnodelo made her kill Dominic, his own family, why not to kill Marcus and then Bette and blame on them all the crime he has done. Bette has to do the first move and change sides, she needs a deal with the police and to give them Arnodelo in exchange for protection for her and Shane. Melvin is too late, he could help Bette before she reached this point, now it’s too late; and now he also blames everything on her, as if he hadn’t pushed her in the hell that she is now.
Helena, of course, is a bitch, but what else could she do, she is an undercover cop. I hope Tina would realize, of what she has awakened in Bette and decide to go back to her.
That was a wonderful chapter Valerie, I hope you may post an update soon, this is a great story. Thanks

I love a vulnerable Bette. I love your writing. Pleas post soon. Im in love with this story.
This story is wonderful, it left me with a heart in my hands, when I read each chapter. And more anxious to have no idea how the end of this story will be,
without having to separate our couple, the more we know that every action has its consequences, and in one way or another bette will have to answer for their crimes.
Unfortunately another blow in bette’s life, the loss of his friend Marcus, is sure to make him want revenge.
