This is giving Agent Alexia from Redhand :)

Also, I need to send you a one-shot request for guessing it right - first person in the very first chapterr 🥰🥰🥰

This put a huge smile on my face 🥹🥹 it really does! Especially the picture on the right, it almost looks like she’s wearing a bullet proof vest haha

Please do! Send whatever oneshot request you have and I’ll work on it 💜💜

I’m so happy they were able to gallop away to their happily ever after 🥹👸🏻🦁✨

I know there might be some drama before it’s all peaceful. But, can I please get a sneak peak of the next chapter. I love this story so much.

Thank you for sending this! 💜💜 And of course, I'd be more than happy to share a bit of the next chapter with you. I hope you like it!

"Turn around, please. I want to see your face."

María shifted slowly within her arms, breaking the warmth of Ingrid’s chest at her back until they were facing one another. Ingrid’s hands rose immediately to hold her face as though afraid she might disappear if she didn’t. Her thumbs traced the familiar lines of her while her eyes searched María's so intensely that her pulse skipped a beat.

“I- I have something important to say.” Ingrid began and noticed how unsteady her voice sounded. She swallowed once, forehead nearly touching María’s to calm herself. “And I need you to listen. If I don’t say it now, I think I might lose my courage.”

María nodded, her hands coming to rest on Ingrid's wrists.

Ingrid took a deep breath and gathered herself piece by piece before she attempted to speak again.

"I, Ingrid, choose you, María. Not because someone arranged it or commanded it or decided it was politically advantageous. But because I want to. Because you're the only person I've ever wanted. "

The words did not waver despite the tears that threatened to spill down already.

“I vow to protect you when you need it, and to stand beside you when you don’t. I will love you on the easy days and the hard ones, see you as you are and not as anyone tried to make you, and give you the kind of happiness I would want for myself, and more.”

Her throat continued to tighten, but she refused to look away.

“I vow to take care of you in this life, whatever it becomes and wherever it carries us, no matter how difficult or unexpected it is. It will always be you and me, together, until death tears me apart from you.. and not even then.”

These vows echoed the ones Ingrid had been forced to agree to hours ago, yet carried an entirely different meaning. Those had been shaped by obligation, whereas these were shaped by choice and unyielding love. María processed the words, feeling them gently sinking into her chest, like something long broken being set back into place. 

“...My turn,” María said at last, holding Ingrid’s gaze despite the tears shining openly in her eyes.

“I, María, choose you, Ingrid.” Her breath hitched, but she pressed on. “You saw me when no one else did, when I was nothing to the world, and still chose to treat me with kindness. And somehow, you loved me back into believing I matter.”

María’s hands moved away from Ingrid’s wrists where they held on gently, up to her face.

"I vow to be brave for you and to protect you from anyone who dares to hurt you. I’ll stand beside you against whatever comes. I will trust you completely, even when trust terrifies me. And to let you in, even when letting people in has always led to pain."

She leaned forward until their foreheads were touching and their breaths were mingling. Her final vows were spoken just shy of Ingrid’s lips.

"I will care for you and love you. Every day. In every way I know how. For as long as I have left." 

"Then I officially pronounce us as wife and wife with this horse as witness!"

no RedHand chapter this week? 😿

Just uploaded it! sorry for the late upload this week, I've been busy all day and just got the chance to share

Hope you enjoy the chapter :)

[allaboutre21]

Do you have any hints for us before you post the Chapter 4 of RedHand? So we can officially lock in our guesses!

My hint is that by the end of chapter 3, you've met/and or heard of all the suspects I'd want you to consider 👀 Also, don't overthink it! Just go with what your gut is telling you.

Beyond that, I'm keeping my mouth shut. I think any more hints would make things a little too obvious, and I want this to be as fun as possible for everyone 🤭

[allaboutre21]

I feel like an addict. But I just love your stories. Could we possibly get a sneak peak of the next story you’re working on? 🥹🥹🥹💖

I am so sorry for the late answer! I must've missed this message :( I will actually be uploading the new work very soon, so stay tuned for it! :)

[allaboutre21]

Please tell me you’re planning on writing other Ingrid/Mapi stories after your current one. PLEASE

That is the plan!! I am currently working on my next work, and I will have the first chapter posted as soon as I can :)

[allaboutre21]

Finally they’re free! I’m thinking….Maria never had confirmation that all of her family died. Actually no one knows, so maybe, just maybe….her brother or someone else might still be alive. Also…I know you’re going to throw in the “you work or not work” from Aitana in there at some point - admit it lol.

As always, I love your writing!

That is actually a very, very good observation going all the way back to chapter 1 🤭 We'll see what happens coming up soon once she gets back to her village (hopefully with no other issues 😉) You cannot have an Aitana cameo without having the "you work or not work" in there. I am not confirming or denying, but you'll see either way very soon hehe

Thank you for taking the time to read and think about the story! And for sending this my way :)

[allaboutre21]

Heyyyy, I don’t usually text like this but I just want to say your latest story is so so good! I love how it’s grown and developed as it’s gone on. I can’t wait to see how it unfolds! Well done

Thank you so much for sending this over!! This made my day 💜💜 I am so happy to hear that you've been enjoying the story progression so far. Its been so many chapters, too, so thank you for sticking by and reading all of it :)

Cannot wait for you to finally finish it when it is done!
