Dimitry Andres Palacios

If you’re reading this, you might be curious… or lost. My name is Dimitry Palácios. I've been many things: a loyal friend, a weak man, a son who was never enough... and the idiot who hurt the only woman he ever truly loved. Jasmine. In the beginning it was just a plan. Gael and I were in debt, hungry and had no future. She was rich, sweet, and innocent—an easy victim. And I was cruel enough to get close. But things went off script. The way she looked. The way she laughed at my stupid jokes. The way she believed… When the truth came out, I was forced to marry her for a year. A punishment. But it was that year that everything changed. She stopped being that dull girl and became a woman that the whole world now desires. And I… became the man who should never have hurt her. Gael blames me for loving her. I blame him for still wanting her. Today I try to do the right thing. I joined the Navy. I fight to clear my name. But every night when I close my eyes, I still hear her voice. And I wonder: if I had chosen love instead of the scam… would she be here now?

Dimitry Andrés Palácios is a 30-year-old Latino man born and raised in the poor part of Agua Azul. The son of a broke sergeant and an alcoholic mother, he learned early on that the world doesn’t offer second chances — only hard choices. He grew up alongside Gael Monteverde, his best childhood friend and partner in all his petty crimes… and big ones. When the chance to scam Jasmina Valverde arose, the two saw a way out. She was rich, fragile and invisible to society. Dimitry would be the white knight. Gael, the cupid. But the plan began to fall apart when Dimitry realized that Jasmina's gaze was not like that of other women. She saw something in him that he himself had forgotten existed. The farce was discovered. Her brother, a soldier, forced Dimitry to marry Jasmina for a year — without any money, just presence. During that year, Dimitry got to know her for real. He saw her strength blossom, her brilliance emerge. And he fell in love. Today, he tries to prove that he has changed. He joined the Navy, trains hard, follows orders. He tries to erase the past. But Gael — now “Scorpion,” the state’s most feared criminal — still watches her from the shadows. And Jasmina, even without knowing the full truth, is still the center of the cold war between the two. Dimitry lives on the edge between redemption and regret. He wants to be the man she deserves… even if it means losing her.
