All Chapters of His Fire & Her Ice: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Heaviness settles in my body.I want to move but I can't. Hey there" a soft voice calls out. I feel like I'm dreaming but then I feel the heaviness of my eyes slowly opening.The beeping of the machines and the smell of antiseptic hits first.A hospital. I made it to the hospital."My body hurts" I mumble but my voice hurts so much I feel like I'm going to be sick."You have a lot of people out there wanting to see you," she says with a smile. I can't reciprocate the smile because I don't feel happy right now so I ask the only question I can."My baby?""I'll go get your doctor. The surgeon will be there as well love""Surgeon?""I'm just your nurse sweetie. Do you need any medication? Any pain?" she asks so I nod but I feel numb so whatever had happened I don't feel much but coldness and heartache.A few moments pass by of silence before 2 doctors and what looks like a surgeon walks in."Miss Moreno," he says. I try to sit up but they tell me not to."My baby?" I repeat feeling a se

I have spent 10 days in the hospital.I'd spent that week on so many pain meds and antibiotics to help with my immunity, I had days where I felt okay to sit up but then I'd be feeling utter shit the next day and shivering, Coughing and being sick.But I couldn't stop thinking about Lorenzo.I'd never seen a man cry before and he cried. I saw it.I felt it. I could feel the drips in my neck. I heard them talking and arguing when they thought I was asleep.Some nights I'd even pretend to be asleep so I didn't have to speak with anyone. I couldn't stand to see the pity roaming in their eyes when no one cared when he threw me out. But I never had the energy to throw him out the way he did me. Rude I know, but I couldn't bear listening to their Pity. I needed to think.Last night though, I couldn't stop the flow of tears as I looked at my scan. My baby was just a blob but the red and blue colours where his or her heartbeat was what made me cry even harder.It was pip. My pip.Cody dropp

2 hours before."You're getting slow old man" Rafael says as he dodges my next punch."Slow? Fuck off.""Seriously man, what's going on?""I'm sorry if I'm not fucking sunshine. I lost my woman and I lost my unborn child the same fucking week" I say as I throw punch after punch his way. I'm only 29. Almost 30 but the fact that I have lost so much in such a short period of my life is my karma.All the bad things I have done and all the lives I've taken, the men I have lost on the way make me feel rage so deep today that everything I have felt since Isabella walked out of my house makes me feel angry.Pain. Anger. Grief.The whole fucking bunch and it kills me to watch her this way. It hurts so deeply that she hasn't even left her apartment unless it's to go out with Cody. That I know of.A few days ago, I had followed him once again and she was wearing black leggings, a hoodie and sunglasses paired with heavy black boots. Her hair was pulled up in a ponytail and she looked underweight.

A pregnancy test.$100,000A Range Rover SUV jet black.The words he's spewing seem so far away. It doesn't seem like a man who wants me, but then again, does he really want me? Did he want me this afternoon, or was it just a punishment?"And what do I tell my cousins? Lorenzo?" I ask through the lump in my throat."Tell them you're travelling. Lorenzo won't buy it though so tell him it's space to think. He will offer alternatives but I need you to leave and stop screwing with my brother's head. He's the Don of a crime family. He doesn't need you."No, because he's got his new life waiting for him.A life I couldn't give him."Fine" I say but I feel my heart shattering all over again. He wants me gone and to stay gone so I will. I'll stay gone and I'll do what I need to do in order to survive."Oh and Isabella""What?" I ask without looking at him."I'm sorry you lost your baby. I know this is extremely hurtful and not the time, but Lorenzo needs an heir or heiress. You couldn't give

4 days is what it took to do a 12-hour drive.I took 4 days to get from one state to another. On my way to Chicago, I did a bit of sightseeing in different places, I went to a few restaurants I've always wanted to travel to and did a bit of exploring during the day but slept at a simple motel.One of the first stops was New Jersey. It's as big as I believed it to be and I managed to go exploring while I was there. Visited one of the attractions which was Cape May, tried some of their famous wines and sat near a bonfire on the beach which was lovely.By day 3 I had gone through Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois and all three trips were heaven! So many beautiful sights I caught on the new phone I have and exploring some of the things each state does without boarding a plane or leaving America, I really did enjoy myself.It's been 5 days since I've seen Lorenzo. I haven't switched my phone on just in case they could still track it but I did remove my SIM card and also bought a new phone to
