~MARIO~ When I was done dressing up, I called Dante to inform him that I was coming to Gia's place. He told me that Gia was taken to the clinic and came back later because she only experienced Braxton hicks contractions. But still, I felt the need to go and bring her home at last before she gave birth away from me. "Did her doctor suspect anything about your visit?" I asked Dante on the phone as I got inside my car. "I told him that I was her husband and needed to be sure that there were no other complications that she could not tell me about," he answered. "Don't ever tell anyone that she's your wife, ever again. You could have said she is your sister," I growled. "Yes, boss. My apologies," he answered. I hung up the call and slipped my cell phone back into my pocket. 'Dante better pray I arrive to him in a good mood,' I thought. I didn't want anyone to imagine her with him. She was mine, and the thought of her being with someone else made my blood boil. If I was
~GIA~ After the call with Mario, I laid back on my bed and looked at the ceiling blushing. I felt myself getting butterflies just thinking that I was going to see Mario soon. I couldn't wait to see him and tell him how much I missed and loved him. Every day since we were apart, I couldn't go a day without thinking of him. He was the love of my life. Though he caused me the greatest pain in my life, he also made me fall unconditionally and eternally in love with him. My days were complete when I was with him. Whenever I looked into his eyes, I felt like they were staring deep into my soul. I could still remember his ocean blue eyes, the way they had a tinkle in them when I looked at him. There was no other man for me, but him. And as I thought of him, memories of us making love flooded my mind. I felt myself getting hot. I felt a throb between my legs that begged for him. That wanted him to make it stop. I moaned softly as I thought of his naked body. His broad chest a
~GIA~ "Is my baby alright, doctor?!" I asked again, fear kicking in that something might be terribly wrong with him since I gave birth a bit too early. I couldn't understand why the doctor kept inspecting my child without informing me what he thought was wrong with him because I was already panicking and assuming the worst. He just kept stealing a few glances at me before he called for a nurse. "Please, take the child to the NICU," he instructed the nurse when she arrived at his side and gave her the baby. She did as she was told and left with my baby. Even though I was scared and overthinking all the things that could be wrong with him, I tried to remain optimistic. But it devastated me when I saw my baby not crying or moving any of his limbs. I turned to the doctor. "What's wrong with my baby? Is everything okay? Is he going to alright, doctor?" "I will bring someone to help you birth the placenta," the doctor said and then left. I leaned my head against the pillow an
~GIA~ "Are you alright?" Debbie asked when she saw my changed demeanor when I came back to the wardroom. I chuckled softly. "Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired," I lied. "How about I leave you to rest and then come back here first thing in the morning before you get discharged and before I go to work?" She asked, smiling. I nodded. "That sounds like a great plan." "Alright then, I will see you in the morning," she answered and then took her things and left. I sighed as I lay down on the bed. I did not know what to think about this. Or what this woman wanted from Mario to get him into the hospital through an accident. I just hoped that she would not take his life before we were united again. I hoped that he was going to fight to stay alive for me, Arianna, and our daughter, Bella. I didn't want Bella to grow up without her father and not experience her father's like I did. I wanted her to grow up with both of us and know that we both got her back and would be there
~MARIO~ "You need to leave right now, Gia..." a distant voice said. I wanted to open my eyes so badly and stop her. I needed to see her, or at least hear her voice a bit longer. But the door closed and there was no one there. I tilted my head and saw a glimpse of her disappearing behind the ward window. Marco stood outside, hung his head behind his neck in distress, and turned to walk inside the room. He gasped when he saw me looking at him. "You're awake!" He squealed in disbelief and came towards my bed. I sighed. "Where is she going?" He looked at me and then answered. "She's not safe, Mario. The woman we are after called her to stay away from you." It felt like the stitches and wounds in my body were being poked. I felt guilty that Gia could be in danger because of me. And then I remembered that I was involved in a car accident while going to Gia. I groaned and tried to sit up on the bed. "Did you find out who was in that truck that hit me?" I asked him. "No,
~MARIO~ “Can I let Arianna inside? She's been dying to see you,” Marco walked to the door. I chuckled lightly. “She misses me? That's very odd.” “Bambi!” She exclaimed as soon as she walked through that door and saw me on the bed. “Hey Ari, it's so good to see you,” I opened my arms to welcome her big hug. She jumped on the bed and hugged me. I flinched from pain, but she was worth it. I missed her too, and I never thought that I would ever wake up and see her again. I was certain that I was going to die when that truck hit me. “You've been sleeping for so long. Are you in pain?” She asked, concerned. I let her sit down next to me on the bed. “I was in a car accident, but I will be fine now,” I answered with a smile. “I thought that you were going to leave me,” a tear fell from her eye. I held her hand in mine. “I will never leave you, Ari,” I smiled and kissed her forehead. She smiled and soon forgot that she was crying. “Did you see Gia?! She has a baby now!” Sh
~GIA~ Two months later, there was still no word about Charlotte. Dante tried to keep us out of every detail about her until he was able to confirm with Mario that she was gone. For good. Mario sent Dante money every other week to buy us groceries and to also take us shopping. During those two months, he did not come to see his daughter because he was trying to protect her and keep Charlotte from finding out where we were. I didn't complain. I thought and believed that Mario and I were better off without each other. We only brought out the worst in each other and put each other in danger. If we were going to reconcile, Bella would be caught in the middle and get hurt. And that was not what we both wanted. “Are you okay, Gia?” Debbie asked in the car. We were on our way to shopping. I smiled. “Yeah, I'm fine. I was just thinking that Bella would be 2 months old tomorrow.” She squealed. “We should definitely have a little photo shoot today,” she looked at the rear mirror a
~MARIO~ "Boss, Gia ran away," Dante said after I answered his call in the morning. "What?" I sat up straight on the bed. "She left a note that she was going to give Bella a better future elsewhere. Away from all the chaos going on," he explained. I sighed. Shocked. I was relieved at the same time that she was not kidnapped. I thought that Charlotte had taken her away. "Thank you for the heads up, Dante," I answered him and then hung up. I threw myself on the bed and released a sigh. "Do you need me to take away all the tension, Daddy?" The hooker next to me asked. I had forgotten that I bought one last night when I went to the club to clear my mind. I looked at her, smirked, and pushed her head underneath the sheets to my dick. I wanted her to suck it until I released myself inside her mouth. She giggled when her mouth finally met with my dick. When she started working her mouth around it, I groaned. She was so good. "You taste so good, Daddy," she gagged on it. I
