The Mafia Boss's Obsession

CHAPTER 34: Several Hours Later.....

JAMESON

I can still hear the gunshots fired between Guilliano and I. Seconds before I shot him in the back of the head, he shot at Liz. My life. My everything.

I thought I had lost her and after my guys and I were able to get control again of Maloney and his men after we heard the first gunshot go off in the office where him and Lizette were at, I thought I was too late when I noticed Guilliano grinning at her in a sinister way as he pointed his gun at her. 

The moment I heard him pull the trigger, again, seconds before I pulled mine, I nearly dropped to my knees when I ran to her side. He had just grazed her but she was scared as was I. She was worried more about the baby than herself, while I was worried about both her and our unborn child also.

The next thing I knew, she passed out in my arms where I immediately picked her up and we rushed to the hospital.

He didn't get her stomach and instead, the bullet hit the top of her shoulder blade that resulted in her getting several stitches, the nurse said. Then they kicked me out because they needed to do a few more tests and because she was passed out, they couldn't ask her if she wanted me in there with her or not, so here I am, sitting with Luciano and Ashleigh as we wait to hear if the baby is okay or not.

"It's okay." I hear Ashleigh tell me as she rubs my back to comfort me.

"Yeah, she's a warrior man. She'll pull through. So will the baby." He tries comforting me some more.

"I can't believe I let her go in the office with him. I let it get to that point. I should have fought harder." I began to say but had to stop because of the tears I felt begin to fall down my face.

"She knew what she was doing. There was nothing you could do. Besides, think of how badass she was with the people she ended up killing before you got there - by herself, might I add." Ashleigh tells me.

"I just...." I started to say something else but stopped the moment we saw the doctor come walking out, right up towards the counter at a nurse, speaking to her and then signing something.

He looked at us and came walking towards us.

"Is she okay?" I began to ask.

"She's fine. She's been given some pain medicine and had gotten a few stitches, but she is going to be okay." He smiles.

"Thank God." I say.

"And your babies are going to be just fine as well." He smiles again.

"That's good to....." I stopped myself again and started to think to myself if I heard him correctly just now. Did he just say.....babies? As in more than one?!?

"I'm sorry. Did you say, babies?" I asked him.

"Yes. We found two in her stomach. Also, she is a couple of weeks further along than she thought she was." He chuckles a little bit.

"Oh my god." I muttered.

"She'll be released tomorrow morning but, you can go and see her now." He tells us.

"Thank you." I replied while still in shock at the fact I am going to be a father of twins.

Visiting hours were almost over and both Ashleigh as well as Luciano, told me they would return in the morning and will head back to see the guys and get ready to leave tomorrow on the yacht.

After saying 'goodnight', I next headed inside the room Lizette was in and entered slowly.

The moment I walked inside and saw her hooked up to IV's while sitting up, she looked beautiful as before. Then as she looked up and saw me, she smiled but also began to cry. So I hurried to her side and sat down in a chair beside her and took her hand in mine to comfort her.

"I'm so sorry." I tell her and start kissing her hand all over.

"I was so scared." She begins crying.

"I know. I should have been there and shit him before he...." I started to apologize but she stopped me.

"No. I meant, I was scared after I woke up and was in here and was being rushed to check on the baby and you weren't there. I thought something happened to you or you left me..." She began crying a little more and my heart was officially broken.

I stood up and quickly held her in my arms while sitting on the bed next to her.

"Baby I would never leave you." I reassure her and begin crying myself while she held me back.

We then pulled apart a little and I held her face while embracing her with a kiss before wrapping my arms around her again.

"I love you so much." She cries into my chest.

"I love you too. I swear I will never let anything bad happen to you or the babies again." I promise her.

We share a brief moment of just us holding each other and not saying anything until I hear her sniffle a little and we pull back to look at one another.

"Wait, so they told you I was pregnant with two?" She asks.

"Yeah. Before I came in, the doctor told me. He Lao told me that you have been pregnant a little longer than you thought." I chuckled.

"Yeah. Well, the pee stick doesn't tell you for how long." She mentions.

We both share a brief good laugh and right now, as I lay down beside her, holding her in my arms (being careful not to hurt her more or touch her wound), it doesn't apply to me even that visiting hours are over already. In fact, I would like to see them try and tell me to leave.

Next chapter will be posted soon! :)
