RESCUE MISSION

Ariana’s pov~

There was another scuffle, and then a huge thud, the roof above us cracked a little.

Luna shrieked in fright before Maria held her mouth, I wasn't afraid but worried.

Deep down I knew Mateo wouldn't let them get to me, and I knew it was because im carrying his child.

Soon we heard footsteps and we watched in horror, step after step as the man descended the stairs.

Not knowing who was going to open the trapdoor.

Soon they stopped above us, and as soon as the lip came open, the morning light blinded me, giving me a rough sketch of my husband, who was crouted low, his shirt badly torn off revealing some parts of his hairy chest.

His body was soaked in sweat and scuffle and at that moment I wanted nothing but to rip the rest of his clothes off, clinging onto his body for dear life,  and lick every bead of sweat, beg him to fuck me the way he did in the tunnels.

“Are you okay Ariana? You can come out now” he said, panting over me as he reached in to pull me out.

As he did our eyes locked and for a brief second I was sure he saw the wanton look in my eyes as I glared at his lips.

“I saw you baby doll” he said, suddenly hitting me of course, I scoffed and looked away.

As I climbed up the stairs I saw the carnage my husband had done, two station guards were badly beaten up and bloody.

I saw Patricio standing over them, worry evident in his face.

“I had to, there was no other way, it was either them or you Ariana, and you know I'llI'll kill every last bastard before II let a single one come close to my heir”

“Now that you have killed the station guards, what do we do?” Patricio inquired, tugging at the dead station officer.

“This wasn't part of the plan? What happens when we get to the dock and they phone in? What the hell did you kill them for!” he thundered.

“Look it wasn't part of the plan, but I'll be damned if I let my wife get shot, I had to do it”  Mateo replied, moving to the centre of the boat.

“Who are you? Why are you trying to get on the island?” he inquired slowly moving away from my husband.

“Don't do anything stupid Patricio, we just need to get to the island, you can't leave right after?” Mateo said, holding his hand up to show he was unarmed.

But the fear in Patricio’s eyes was obvious.

“Patricio, stop, please don't do anything stupid, your wife is waiting back at the restaurant okay? I'm sorry I didn't mean for this to happen” I explained trying to calm his already heightened stress.

“I can't go with you, we need to turn back”

“We are not turning back Patricio, we are getting on that island, if you don't want to come with us, then get off” Mateo replied sternly.

“Mateo…” I started turning to him, “It's his boat, he is trying to help us, don't do this to him, we are far from the mainland” I muttered.

“Ariana it's now or never, if we turn back they are going to find out why the station guard one officers aren't clocking in, and then we would never get in, we get Serena out now or it's never,” he said.

I looked back at Maria, her eyes pierced mine and I knew she would tear me apart if I dared to ruin this mission.

“In sorry Patricio” I mumbled in a low tone.

Patricio looked around in regret, “I told my wife you were trouble, but the damned pregnancy hormones drive a man to madness” he said under his breath.

“I'm sorry, my good man, I'll find you when this is over,” Mateo said.

A few moments later we witnessed Patrico drift into the sea on an inflated raft.

Soon the island drew closer and closer.

I held on to Mateo but I refused to meet his gaze.

We approached the dock and he asked us to hide again.

“What will you do? How would you explain Patricio's absence?” Maria inquired.

“Leave that to me, now I know Ariana is not your favourite fruit to eat but you are not going to let the fly hover, make sure nothing happens to her down there,” my husband said.

I watched Maria vibrate in disgust at the thought of her ensuring my safety.

“No I'm not leaving it to chance, I'm going up there with you” I retorted.

“No Ariana, I'm not risking your life” he started pulling me down the stairs to join my stepmother and Luna.

“I'm not risking yours either, if it's both of us we could convince them Patricio sent us instead.”

“Why are you so hard-headed you drive me to insanity! You rile me up any other person would have been torn to shreds but you….”

He added before slowly touching my lips.

“You do something to me, you…”

I looked at him as he paused, is he thinking about Becky right now?

Now when we are about to be spotted by the dock station rangers.

Right here when we can be shot down for approaching Massimo's island! He chooses to finally be angry.

Wow! Way to play it, Mateo!

“What the hell do I do to you? I'm just asking why you won't let me go up there and fight for my life rather than leave it to chance! You always assume that because I'm pregnant I can't……..”

He kissed me, right there.

In that moment all the anger I felt started to sizzle as his tongue deepened into my mouth.

Slowly he reached for my neck and grabbed it, pulling my mouth away from his.

“That is what you do to me baby doll, right when we are staring death in the eyes, I want to rip those clothes off your back and fuck you until you beg me to have mercy on your pussy,”
