Mr & Mrs Montero

Why Montero?

Kalani's POV

Montero's doctor, or should I say, the Montero's mafia doctor happened to be passing New York and he got here as soon as he could. I was pacing around our bedroom waiting for the doctor to come out and tell us something. Seven was with me and the children in Enzo's bedroom. After two hours of waiting, the doctor came out.

"Please tell me something good." I was nervous as hell. That much I was certain of.

"He didn't damage anything important. The bullet in the arm was a through and through. It only pierced some muscles. The one in the shoulder almost left him paralyzed." My heart stopped for a second or two. My eyes nearly popping out it's sockets. I stumbled back, my breath hiccupping up.

"Don't worry Mrs Montero, he is out of danger. I took out the bullets without complications but he needs to rest." He finished.

I took a few breathes than I nodded.

"Don't be so hard on yourself. The worst of it is over. Now all we have to do is wait ok?" All I could do was just nod. Before I rushed in the room he stopped me by holding my arm.

"He needs some time alone. Give him a few hours then you can visit him. Montero's health something complex. If his blood gets in contact with iron forged for a bullet, it affects his whole body. His immune system basically crashes. That's why he collapsed. He then needs his whole body and the room to be sterilized throughout. He currently can't have human contact." My lips trembled, tears falling unguarded.

"Montero told me to never let anyone know. But that was long ago. I don't think he knew he would have a family." He shook his head smilIng. I kept blinking, trying to process everything but it was so hard.

Montero had an allergic reaction to bullets yet he used to be in the mafia? What? But why would he risk his life like that?

"I see that you trying to process all of this Mrs Montero, I'll leave you too it. I will see to the others who are hurt." All I could do was nod.

Why Montero? I looked up, trying to stop the tears. I then patted my cheeks to stop them from being puffy. Hack my whole face was puffy.

My mind was everywhere. The kids, Montero, our safety, the baby I was carrying, Montero's allergic reaction, gosh this was too much. Our house was buzzing. Men kept going in and out and Felix was supervising the whole thing. I had phoned Eva a few minutes ago and I was waiting for her to come over.

A few minutes ago
After finding out that much about Montero, I went to the kitchen to downed some water. After I was done, I tried pacifying myself.

Kalani calm down, Kalani calm down, Kalani calm down, I kept chanting while pacing around the kitchen. And I was slowly losing my sanity. Seven kept me company the whole time. His mom was with the kids, and all he did was just stand there by the kitchen island while I spoke myself to oblivion.

"What should I do Seven?" I stopped pacing and I finally looked at him.

"Breathe?" But it was more of a question than a statement. His shoulders shrugged up.

"Yea, we are trying on that department, I mean, like now, who should I call? Maybe Mr Montero or something?" I suggested.

"Yeah Romano will surely have your head when he wakes up on that one. I can allow you to do alot of things, but letting you phone his dad is out the question. He will do it when he feels like it. The bad blood between them remains between them." He reasoned.

"But-"

"No buts. You have already put me through alot of trouble with your kids. More trouble than I have ever encountered in the last sixteen years. Montero will wake up and friends aside, he'll crumble down on me like the walls of Jericho for letting you go outside. Montero cares for this family more than himself. And if any harm had come before you or your kids, him going out alone would have amounted to nothing." He continued. I nodded my head in understanding.

I had put my needs first and I didn't realize that Seven's life was also important. Him protecting me was his life promise. And I disregarded that when I saw Montero laying on the floor. All senses went out the door. And to my defense, I freaked out ok?! I'm pregnant, with six kids, with an anxiety problem, with a husband who is an Ex-Don of the italian mafia. He killed for a living, I mean, I was bound to crash at some point.

"I'm sorry Seven. I put you in a very compromising position earlier. I wasn't thinking and me doing that could have caused alot of trouble. I'm really sorry." I looked down disappointed at myself.

"Hey don't do that." He came to me and held my hand.

"You are very much justified to have done that. Hack I'd be surprised if you didn't." I smiled.

"Montero is going to be angry I give you that," I looked away. "But on the good side, no one got shot right, well except Montero, which is better if I'd ask me." I slightly hit his shoulder.

"Hey don't say that." I reprimanded him.

"Sorry hon, but your husband's a beast."

"Hah." I chuckled. "Yah think?"

He let go of me and went to pour himself some water.

"On the real though, I wonder who those men were and what they wanted." Seven looked deep in thought. Then I remembered.

Eva.

"Let's call Eva. I know she's think of something. And when I tell Eva, Johnathan will automatically be included." I smiled.

"Ok. I mean that's fine." He agreed.
A few minutes later.

I picked up my phone and I immediately called Eva. Her phone rang about four times before it was answered.

"This better be good Montero." Her was voice sleepy and I could tell she was still in lala land having the time of her life. Eva started calling me Montero when I got married to him. Somehow to her it was amusing. Well at first it was. Until it kinda stuck for good. Come to think of it, alot of people are called Montero.

My husband, his father and me.

Crazy, I know.

"We got attacked." Was all I said.

"What?!" Her voice was now on alert.

"Men came and they attacked us. I mean, our home. Montero got shot and I almost shot Seven an-" I rushed through what happened.

"Ok calm down ok?"

"Alot of people have been telling me that and it's now starting to get annoying." I honestly replied.

"Sorry. Ok, I'm on my way, just hang in there." I could then hear shuffles in the background and I assumed she was getting out of bed.

"But Johnathan, the kids?" I asked.

"I'll grab Johnathan along the way. The kids will go to mom's. I don't know what those guys want. And if they can attack you and not get what they want, they can go for the closest friends." She explained.

"Oh my gosh!" I covered my mouth, staggering back. It gets worse.

"Kalani it's cool. We have a back up plan. We live for this ok? Just wait for me hun bud, I'll be right there." Then the call got disconnected.
