Alan heard Benjamin's desperate voice, but he believed he was delirious, his boyfriend couldn't be there.
"Stop deluding me!" Alan ordered himself.
When Alan saw the door being kicked in, he realized that his boyfriend really was there to get him out of the hands of his kidnapper, alias Cauã.
B. didn't know how to describe what he was feeling: anger, hatred, anguish, fear, and the feeling that stood out the most was the exacerbated desire to kill this son of a bitch, but he was fully aware that he couldn't, if he did what he wanted he would be arrested in the place of this scumbag who, unfortunately, was Alan's ex-husband, his love.
The fatherless son of a whore's facial expression was one of pure pleasure, which made Ben feel almost uncontrollable rage, because his love showed discomfort in his expression.
B. rushed to his lover's aid, pulling Alan out of Cauã's arms and punching him in the face, causing the bastard to faint.
- Please tell me you didn't come alone...
Alan whispered, his voice hoarse from screaming for help.
- I didn't come, you can rest assured, love.
Reassuring his beloved, Benjamin picks him up and carries him out of that filthy, uninhabitable hovel.
Alan snuggles into Ben's trunk, taking a deep breath.
- It's finally over.
The truth was that the smell of his boyfriend calmed him down, he felt safe in his arms.
As soon as Benjamin descended the last step of the hovel's staircase, the emergency room nurses took Alan out of his arms and took him to be treated.
A policeman coming out of the hovel was holding Cauã, the eye that B. had punched had already turned purple, and when he saw Ben he felt like laughing, but fortunately held it back.
"Finally this nightmare has come to an end." Ben thought, relieved.
Three hours later...
- Love, I know this isn't the place, let alone the time, but I wanted to ask you something... - Benjamin started to say, taking Alan's hand, who was lying on a hospital gurney.
- You can ask, my love - Alan says, settling himself on the stretcher, which he found uncomfortable.
- I wanted to... ask you... - He stutters.
- Come on, Ben, you're scaring me...
- Will you marry me? - He asked quickly, making it difficult to understand what he was saying.
Alan's eyes filled with tears, he had never imagined that he would be asked to marry him in a hospital room.
The emotions he was feeling at the moment were indescribable, his heart was racing, which caused the devices he was connected to to start ringing, an anxiety that was out of the ordinary dominated his being, he opened his mouth to start answering, however, the tears that once came from despair were now of happiness.
- Love, is everything all right?
B. asked worriedly, because it had been a few minutes since Alan had been silent, and he couldn't tell if he had been right to ask him to marry him or not.
- Yes, I'm fine, and yes, I agree to marry you.
When he heard this, Ben cracked a huge smile. Never in his life had he been so happy, he now had everything he had been asking Fate for for years.

What should I say about Antony and Marcus... I'll tell you that Marcus accepted Antony's apology, that they're doing very well, and as promised the two of them talk and argue every day, as a healthy couple should, but I can tell you that we'll still see more of their adventures, and how they helped Alan, Ben, and Nathan rebuild their lives.
Finally Alan and Benjamin would be happy, now you must be wondering what happened to Cauã, well, I'll tell you that hours later, while Alan and Ben were celebrating their wedding proposal, Cauã in turn was murdered by one of his cellmates, what came out in the news was the following headline:
"Man who kidnapped businessman's fiancé is found butchered in his cell"
Yes, I have to agree that it's a tragic end, but what can you do? However, what hasn't been disclosed to the media is that it was an ordered killing, now by whom, I don't even know who had the courage to have him killed, but let's face it, this person did some good for Bestemming society.
As they say, life plays tricks on us, and I'm here to tell you that story, but I have to admit that I've also been charmed by someone who you'll get to know very soon...
