Wow, so you are some kind of spy?"Ruby asked, of all the things that had run through her mind while she waited for Liam to return from where he had run off to in such a hurry leaving her here for almost six hours with the baby, this wasn't what she had thought, she had a lot of thoughts while she waited for him to return, thoughts that weren't nice."Yeah, you can say that,""And you are here to spy on this island?""Yes,""Why?""See Ruby, I don't know just how much I can tell you but this place, this place has to be one of the worst places in this country, there's are so many shady deeds going on here that if not properly taken care of may lead to lots of casualties, I think the reason why your people wanted you guys out if here was because they found out."Liam replied, Ruby couldn't for the life of hers understand what he meant by everything he was saying, she already knew the island wasn't safe but at least it wasn't dangerous either, there are lots of gamblers and drug dealers

"Liam?"He heard Ruby call, she told him she would be coming around but when he hadn't seen her he knew she must have been busy, the hospital has been extra busy and he understood, it was late, he quickly rushed to get the door and opened it, she stood there looking so scared,"Hey, what happened Ruby?"He asked pulling her into the house with him, she was scared, her hands are shaking so much."Liam,"She said again this time as a cry, he hugged her close as she started crying for real, he let her cry it out while hugging her and patting her back."What happened Ruby?"He asked after the crying lessened, she looked at him with those big pretty eyes that held so much fear right now that he wanted to do nothing but hunt down whoever or whatever made her cry."I saw them, I saw them, they, oh my God, it was horrible,"She said covering her face, whatever she saw must have been horrifying for her to be this shaken."Hey, baby, calm down, you are safe now, I am here,"He said hugging her

He said feeling the sadness overwhelm him, each time he thinks about that day, he still couldn't forget how it had started as just a normal day in their camp, his teammates teasing the new father and the only girl in their team, then their head had instructed them to go check out a situation which was not supposed to stay long or be dangerous, they had let their guard down, why because there wasn't a war, they weren't fighting anyone, so no one expected them to be attacked but they never returned the same, his teammates died in the fire and he was able to survive by chance when the impart of the bomb had thrown him away from where the car had burnt to ashes right in front of him."Hey, Liam,"He heard Ruby call and he slowly got out of his nightmare and found her holding his hands again."I am fine, just that each time I think about what happened I end up an emotional mess."He said, she nodded, she still looked shaken, he wondered who the man was that was killed, from her explanation

"You don't think that's it right? They can't be selling their babies outright?""You said it yourself doc, I can't put it past with the things going on here,""Oh God no, so does that mean the moms that abandon their babies close to the hospital do not want to sell their baby? does this mean they might have been forced into doing it?"She asked, she really shouldn't be thinking these things, babies are precious no mother would give her baby up except she can't help it."We can't jump to conclusions yet Ruby, I will make some inquiries even though talking with the locals doesn't help, they keep to themselves so much,""Yeah, even the women too, they hardly say anything, okay some can't speak English but the ones that can aren't talking either as if something or someone is controlling them.""If this is it, then we are in a lot more than we might have bargained for, this place is not safe and you should warn your team, sticking together would help us more, though I doubt they will do an

"Yes, what's going on over there? Anything we can use?""No, nothing much yet, but I at least know that they meet once in a while though not consistent also there is a boss but I don't think he is on the island, plus the people on the island aren't talking, they barely say anything, but I will still keep trying, if there is going to be a nice as we suspected, I don't think it will happen this month, I will send over everything I have so that you can take a look.Liam explained wondering if he should tell him about the incident that happened the night before or just let it slide, Luca was staring at him expectantly."Anything else Liam?""Yeah, one of the doctors here on voluntary services witness someone being killed last night, I am thinking it's one of the gang members and they killed him over a misunderstanding,"Liam revealed."I didn't know there were doctors volunteering there, where is she now?""At the clinic, she was going home late last night when it happened,"Liam replied.

“Is it true what my wife was screaming about last night?”Luca asked him as soon as he got to work the next day, it was still hard for him to believe that he was getting married on Wednesday.“Yes, she decided we should be married before our baby is born, and managed to get every one of the ladies on her side so I have to be married by Wednesday which is five days, wait, make that four days away,”He said and Luca started laughing at him.“What’s so funny Luca?”He asked.“You sound like they are forcing you to get married,”He said still laughing, force? No way! He was happy, beyond happy that Ruby wanted to marry him but he was just a little bit scared that she might change her mind, she was pregnant and if she adds the wedding stress to it, she might back out and he didn’t want that.“Are you feeling like it is forced? You are frowning Liam, you want to marry her right?”Luca asked as if that was even a question.“Of course, why would you ask that, you know just how much I love tha

Liam didn’t think he heard her right, maybe he had a little too much cake to eat at Nathan’s and Emily’s wedding, he knew he shouldn’t have eaten so much but it was so sweet.“You want to marry me right?”Ruby asked again and he finally came back to his senses.“Of course, I gave you a ring, remember? I want to marry you,”He answered and she smiled brightly.“Then let’s get married, I don’t want a big wedding like that of Emily and Nat,”She said and he just stared at her“Wait, what? You want us to get married this week? Ruby? You are almost due and might give birth before the week runs out, she can barely do anything and you want to be married? Are you sure you are alright my lady?”“What are you saying? We still have two weeks, do you know how to count? Let’s get married before I give birth, I am calling you and your siblings right now,”She said picking up her phone and tapping fast on it, her phone soon rang and he knew just who was calling and it turned out to be that person wh

“Sam?”“Yes, he is my lawyer, I spoke to him and he suggested I go talk to Richard, I did that today but Richard is so selfish he doesn’t want to sign so I am going with Sam’s first suggestion which is to file for a lawsuit,”She informed.“Well, in that case, Sam is one of my favorite people now too,”He said and she laughed.“Oh, I missed us so much,”“Me too, I miss Kristen too,”She said in a sad voice.“We can go see her, she is enjoying her time with her grandparents, it’s just them as none of my siblings are at the mansion, mom called earlier and Kristen was having a fun time in the background,”He revealed and she cheered up.“That sounds so cool,”“Yeah, we can go over to see her if you want, mom won’t let me take her away until the one week I promised she would spend there is up, we can go be with her too, I know mom will want to see you too,”He said and she frowned in sadness again.“What is making you frown this time woman,”He asked pulling her face to his.“Talk to me,

“Why would you think I am angry at you?”Liam asked not understanding how that even happened, he couldn’t deny that he had pretty much been avoiding talking to her for the past couple of days but that had nothing to do with him being mad at her and everything to do with him giving her space, he didn't want to crowd her with everything going on.“I thought you were, you didn’t talk much to me, you haven’t hugged or kissed me for days, you haven’t told me you love me either, and I haven’t seen you for days, I thought you were not here,”She said and he felt like hell, he went up to her and kissed her.“I was here all along, saw you every time you left the room, I thought you knew I was home too and you just didn’t want to talk to me, I am not angry at you Ruby, believe me, I acted like a selfish idiot that day and felt bad about it immediately, I wanted to talk to you and say sorry but you didn’t want to talk to me,”“I shouldn’t have locked you out that night, I thought you would say s
