Her Dark Fate: I Will Punish You, My Gurl
A Twist Of Fate
author
Hey dreamers,
If this is your first time stepping into my world, welcome. If you've been here since the chaos began, I see you. I love you.
This story is about denial, unspoken feelings, and the quiet ways people run from the truth until it becomes their fate.
Ready to step into their world?

reeva Rizzo/FL
What should I do? Ugh, I can’t figure out anything! [I groaned, raking my fingers through my hair in frustration]
I’ve been tearing the place apart for the last hour, searching for one thing.
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My pen drive.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
Hey, Emily! Do you know where my pen drive is?
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Emily, my assistant and the only real friend I have left here since Elva moved back to Italy with Adriano, glanced up from her laptop]
Emily Bernard/ FL PA
Which one? The new project presentation?
Emily Bernard/ FL PA
[She always forgot where she had kept her belongings.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
Yeah! [I snapped] I've looked everywhere.
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Sure, I have other friends… but most of them feel more like coworkers than people I’d actually call in a crisis]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Elva and I practically grew up together. After the tragedy we both endured as kids, our lives had been permanently marked Broken, maybe]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[When she got kidnapped two years ago, everything we’d buried came crashing back.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[We were told the truth then.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[And now she’s with Adriano. Well, I am happy that she finally found the love of her life.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Adriano really treats her like she is his world. His whole universe roams around her.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I'm happy for her. I really am]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[But right now?]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I’m falling apart]
Emily Bernard/ FL PA
Did you really lose it? <i asked, concern creeping into my voice>
Emily Bernard/ FL PA
[if she loses it we are doomed]
reeva Rizzo/FL
I kept it in my locked drawer [I said sharply] But it’s not here.
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My phone buzzed]
> Unknown: Babe, don’t look for your pen drive. It’s with me. Can we meet?
Unknown: A meeting in exchange for the drive that holds your life? Perfect deal, isn’t it?
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My heart skipped.It was him again]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[These messages always leave me shaken. Always that same twist of guilt in my chest]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[The same whisper, Maybe I should’ve never moved here alone]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[It’s been two years since Elva’s wedding. Two years since I decided to stay in Paris for good, chasing independence, chasing my career]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[At first, the messages were… harmless]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Encouraging messages from an unknown sender, about how beautiful my designs were, how stunning the models looked with my makeup..]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[As a makeup artist, I've earned a strong reputation in Paris]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I'm working with major fashion brands now!]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[And yet, every time i post something on social media... every time I get a message.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Always flattering]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Always anonymous]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Always watching]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I didn’t know who it was, but the attention felt flattering. Mysterious. Harmless. Only At first]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[But slowly, the tone shifted]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[The messages became more personal. Obsessive. He started asking to meet me]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I’ve asked a hundred times who he is. He always says the same thing]
> "You’ll hate me if I tell you before we meet."
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Hate him? Who could he be?]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I never told Elva. I didn’t want to worry her]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Because if she knew Marcelo would too,And then I’d be dragged back to Italy.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Marcelo is my cousin. But really, he’s more like a brother. He raised me after my parents died. He’s fiercely protective]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[For once, I just wanted to stand on my own.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I almost told Elva last year, when the gifts started arriving. I threw them all away.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Since then, I’ve tried to open up… but I never could.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[And now? He’s stolen my pen drive. That’s insane.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My presentation is in two days. The drive contains everything, concepts, drafts, confidential designs. This meeting could define my entire future.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[If I don’t get it back, I could lose everything. How do I deal with this psycho? Ugh! ]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[His name hit me like a jolt. Riccardo. Adriano's best friend.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[We met officially the day Elva lost her grandmother. It wasn’t the best time to meet anyone, especially not someone like him.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I hated him from the start. He looked like trouble in a tailored suit smug, charming,]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[and the kind of man who thinks flirtation is a language everyone should speak fluently.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Every time we crossed paths, we clashed. Words like weapons. Insults disguised as conversation.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[We couldn’t stand each other. Or maybe we just didn’t want to.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[But things shifted. Slowly. Quietly. Somewhere between the arguments and the silences, we grew close. Too close.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[We never said it out loud, but we both felt it, that dangerous something simmering beneath what we called "friendship."]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[And yet, we stayed away.We had to.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[He has a fiancée.And he’s the man responsible for my parents’ death.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[A tragedy. A twist of fate. But still... it was him. And the result was the same, my world shattered…]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[and somehow, from the wreckage, I found Elva. My soulmate in the shape of a best friend.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Exactly that.Just a friend.Should I text him?]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[No. Reeva Rizzo, don’t you dare.]

Funny enough, this story didn't turn out the way I originally planned. The title came from my first idea, but the characters took the story in a completely different direction. It's less about darkness and more about emotions, denial, and fate. I hope you'll enjoy the journey. 🖤

Note for Readers 🤍
This story is a spin off of Dark Destiny: You Are Mine to Destroy. While it introduces a new main couple, Riccardo and Reeva, it continues in the same universe, and many familiar faces return.

Hey Dreamers, Let's start ~
reeva Rizzo/FL
[But maybe I could ask him, As a friend.Maybe.We are still friends. ]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[There's nothing between us. He's getting married next month anyway.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Okay, Deep breath. I'm texting him. As a friend. For help.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
Reeva: Hey! Reeva here. I need your help with something. I know you're getting married next month, and you must be very busy with everything...but this is something only you can help with, at least, compared to anyone else I know.
Hoping for a positive reply. If you can't, don't worry. I understand. 💬
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I hit send.Breathe, Reeva. Breathe.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Less than a minute later, the reply comes.]
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
Riccardo: I’ll be happy to help you, Rizz. Tell me what you need.
P.S. Don’t worry about the marriage stuff. 💬
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My chest tightens.Why the hell is my heart racing like this?]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Like I just Jumped off a cliff with no parachute.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I’m sweating. My skin feels hot.I need air.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
Emily, I’m stepping out! [I called.]
Emily Bernard/ FL PA
Did you find it? <she shouted from inside>
reeva Rizzo/FL
Will soon [I muttered, just as the door clicked shut behind me.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
I'll take a caramel latte, thanks [I told the server with a soft smile]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[She returned it with the same warmth as she tapped my order into the screen.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Another text lit up my phone.Riccardo.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[He said he'd call in twenty minutes so I could explain what help I needed]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[He must've been swamped with work]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Riccardo Merchesi. Thirty-eight years old. One hundred seventy-eight centimeters tall]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[CEO of a secret hacker company and the most feared informant in the country]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[And the man I swore I'd never get close to]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[The phone rang. I cleared my throat before answering] Hey, Riccardo. 📱
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
Hey, Rizz. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
[His voice from the other end almost knocked the air out of my lungs]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Breathe, Reeva. Just breathe. I used to feel nothing when he spoke. But now...]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[it was like my chest forgot how to function. The air stalled on its way to my lungs. And I hated how I noticed.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
I need your help.📱
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
I know, <he replied calmly> That's why I called. Tell me what's going on. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I hesitated. Then I said it.] I have a stalker.📱
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
What? <His voice sharpened> How long has this been going on? 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
Two years, [I confessed]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[And then I told him everything. From the first anonymous message on social media, to the text, the unwanted gifts,]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[the photo prints with typed dates on the back. Even the USB the one I hadn't dared plug in until panic pushed me to.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Riccardo said nothing as I spoke. He just listened. Absorbing every word like he was already hunting]
reeva Rizzo/FL
I need the pen drive, [I said, trying to steady my voice.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
I have a meeting with the CEO of a major beauty brand in two days. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
If what's on that drive leaks... I'm done, Riccardo. My career. My reputation. Everything I've built will vanish. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
I tried to handle it alone. But now, with the meeting coming... I can't risk it anymore. 📱
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
Okay. Breathe, [he said gently] Do you have any idea who he might be?
reeva Rizzo/FL
No. [I gripped the warm coffee cup tighter.] Just... he once said if I knew who he was, I'd hate him.
reeva Rizzo/FL
That's why he wants to meet me instead. 📱
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
Then it's someone you've met. At least once, [he said] Someone who knows you. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
Maybe, [I whispered] But I really have no idea who. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Half my caramel latte was gone by the time I finished]
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
I see.
reeva Rizzo/FL
[His voice dropped, lower, focused. I knew that tone. It meant the hunt had begun]
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
You said the messages come from an unknown number, right? No sender? 📱
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
Text him now. Tell him you'll meet him. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
What? [I almost laughed.] You do know I called you because I don't want to meet him, right? What if he's dangerous? What if-
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
Rizz, listen to me.
reeva Rizzo/FL
[His voice cut through my panic.]
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
You have two days. If you meet him, maybe you can figure out what he wants. What he knows.
reeva Rizzo/FL
I was raging. Furious. If I wanted to meet him, why would I be calling Riccardo for help?

Hey Dreamers, Let's start ~
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
And don't worry I'll be there. [he added] 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
[His last words wrecked me. My heart was pounding so loud, I was scared he might hear it through the line.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
You're really coming here? 📱
Riccardo Merchesi/ML
Yeah. I've got some work in Luxembourg this week. It's a three and a half hour drive to Paris. I'll make it. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
Thanks, [I whispered] But... don't tell Adriano. If he finds out, Elle will too. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
[He chuckled.] I'll keep that in mind, Rizz. 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
I'll text you once I confirm the meeting, [I told him, hanging up after a beat.]📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I sipped what was left of my latte. Then, with fingers that didn't feel like mine, I sent the text to the stalker]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[For a second, I paused]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Is he watching me right now? Every time he sent a gift, he included a photo of me, always recent, always personal.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[A typed date stamped on the back. I never saw him, but he clearly always saw me.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[It haunted me. Some nights I woke up convinced he was standing in my doorway,]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[watching me sleep while I wore an oversized Tshirt that barely covered my ass. The dreams never left me. Neither did the fear.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I paid my bill and stepped out of the café just as my phone rang again. Elle.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[We talked as I walked back to my apartment. I heard Alvie yelling in the background, asking for me. She said she missed me.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Alvie. Alveedia D'Angelo. Elle and Adriano's four year old daughter. A chatterbox with sunshine in her voice.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[She was the glue that kept Elle and me smiling through the mess of our early days in Paris.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[When the world felt too heavy, when I nearly gave up on everything. And then there was Alvie.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Always there. Always giggling. Whenever I’m home, I spend all my time with her. I missed her too.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
I'm home. I'll call you later, Elle, [I said, unlocking the door.] 📱
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I needed to breathe. Because the real nightmare might be about to begin]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[After a hectic day, a hot bath is all you need.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I haven’t heard from my stalker yet. If I’m being honest, I don’t really want him to reply.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[But then again, if he doesn’t… how am I supposed to get my pen drive back?]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[It’s been around forty-five minutes, and I still don’t want to leave the bathtub.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My phone screen lights up in the distance, probably a message. I left it on the vanity desk.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[But I didn’t move. I wanted time alone. No screens. No drama. No creepy messages that could ruin this fragile sense of peace.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I sank deeper into the water, closed my eyes, and let myself forget the chaos, just for a little while.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I want to relax. Feel the lukewarm water against my skin. Breathe.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[After a solid hour long bath, I finally settle onto the couch. TV on, a small arugula salad with cherry tomatoes, shaved parmesan, olive oil, and lemon in my hand.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My favorite drama series plays on screen. A glass of dry red wine, Bordeaux.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[For dessert, the choux pastry filled with chocolate cream I bought from the café today.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[This is all I need right now, to prepare myself for tomorrow.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Emily had texted me earlier, asking whether I’d found the pen drive. I hadn’t replied then, but I do now.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
not yet. but I will take care of it don’t worry. 💬
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I lied. I don’t know how to take care of it.]
Emily Bernard/ FL PA
okay, but don’t take so much stress. we can figure it out together. 💬
reeva Rizzo/FL
[That’s why I like her so much. She’s practical. Simple. Always ready to face anything head on.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[My stalker still hasn’t replied.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[As the night drags on, I can’t focus on the drama series anymore.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I keep checking my message inbox, every ten seconds, probably. I have no idea what he’s planning.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[First he wanted to meet. Now that I finally agreed… silence.Am I being too eager to meet him?]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[God, if I actually meet him today, I swear I’ll kill him.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[What the hell is wrong with him, and what the hell is wrong with me?]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[It’s past one in the morning, and My eyelashes haven’t kissed sleep once.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[I’d drunk half a bottle of wine, and I still wasn’t the least bit tired.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Just wired. Waiting. Overthinking and sleep refuses to come.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[The damn stalker still hasn’t replied. It’s been seven hours since I texted him.]
reeva Rizzo/FL
[Is he playing games with me?]
