Dulce (Sweet)

V E I N T I S É I S-"Vaya con Dios."

Ez rode the familiar streets of Santo Padre,the long ride to the familiar house helping him clear his mind. The moment that changed his life replaying in his head over and over.

They read over the words together,their hearts racing at the new revelation.

"He's my son."Ez whispered. "I'm a father."Ez wiped his eyes,despite firmly believing that the baby was his this whole time he still couldn't believe the words that he read on the paper.

Rutila sat in silence,her eyes reading and rereading the words on the paper. "He's yours."She whispered,folding the paper. She sniffled,despite having a gut feeling now she was filled with worry at what this meant.

Ez dismounted his bike,watching Rutila talk with her guards in worry as he removed his helmet.

"What's wrong?"Ez asked,walking up to the distressed blonde.

"The guards."She muttered,walking up to the door. They found a trail of body's all the way up to nursery,where she found the last two guards laying on the floor in a pile of their blood.

"My baby."Rutila whispered,running to the crib to find it empty. "Where's my baby!"

Ez checked the house,his own heart broken at not finding his son. The whole ride over he replayed the revelation,desperate to get to her house and hold the baby once more.

"He's gone. He's not here."He sighed,pulling a frantic Rutila into his arms. She cried into his chest,panic flooding her body at the sight of her baby gone.

"He took him! He took my baby!"She cried,Ez holding the sobbing blonde tightly.

"Don't worry,Bonita."He rubbed her back,trying to soothe her as best he could. "I'll get him back. I'll get our baby back."

Rutila didn't sleep the whole night,Ez unable to console her in her frantic state. He didn't know where to begin looking for their son,and as much as he wanted to help her and stay with her he had to leave for club business.

It wasn't long after he left that she answered her ringing phone,taking a deep breath to control her emotions.

"Fuiste tu,verdad!"She accused. "Tu me robaste mi hijo!"

"Now now,mi alma."Chema smirked,lighting a cigarette as he sat in his car. "That's no way to treat your man."

"You're not my man! Give me back my son!"The blonde yelled,anger coursing through her veins.

"My son is just fine with me,far away from la zorra de su madre."The man hissed,looking at the photos of Rutila with the Mayan at a restaurant. When he'd realized she was gone from her house and left the baby there,he'd made his move and killed every guard in sight. Taking the nanny and the baby with him,he'd make Rutila fall in line and start respecting him.

"Okay,okay Chema. What do you want? What do I have to do for you to give me my son back?"Rutila sighed,wiping her tears.

"Asi me gusta,mi alma. Flojita y cooperando."Chema smirked,knowing that he had the blonde right where he wanted her. "And this is what you're going to do."

Rutila walked into Monica's office,barely able to contain her tears. She made her way to the couch that sat in the luxurious office,waiting for the blonde to meet her there.
