I hang up the phone in a panic, roughly letting it crash down on to the counter.

A creak of floor boards sound behind me. "But I already did, Maria"

I hear the door close. I look over and see Luke standing there in all his glory of finding me.

As he starts to walk up to me, I back into the wall, shielding myself with both my hands so I don't have to look him in his icy blue eyes.

I eventually hit the wall and he puts both of his arms up by me, making a barrier.

He chuckles evilly. "So, how has Maria been? Did your boyfriend fuck you as good as I do?" He asks, stroking my face with a rough thumb.

I stammer, gapping down at all the deadly weapons in front of me.Luke turns towards me, pockets loaded with handguns and an assault rifle slung around his broad shoulders."Don't worry, I've got it under control,"He assures, giving me a look that should make me feel safe but I only feel worse because the pain in his eyes are so prominent.

But I never thought I'd have to use it for him."Right here," Jasmine finally says and leads me into a room right of the hallway. When I enter, an older doctor is standing there checking Aaron's heartbeat and probably breath sounds by the looks of it. "This is Dr. Wells. He is one of the best paediatricians around," Jasmine introduces.I walk up to the small hospital crib they've put him in and grip onto the railings, looking down at him. "How's he doing?"
