My baby

Chapter 20

Matheus William

- I think it's time to talk.- I said seriously. Milly turned her face towards me in agreement.

- I've been waiting for this...- her voice was muffled by the pacifier on her lips. My hand caressed her waist and I let out a heavy sigh.

She was putting off as long as she could to get into this subject. Sure she would be upset, even though I knew that everything I did was for her own good! I didn't want to leave the United States of America without giving any explanation, much less without my baby.

Unfortunately, circumstances didn't let her be by my side and with me she wouldn't be safe.

- I have many enemies, especially in Italy! Long ago, I killed a man named Lian, who was the brother of Vincenzo, an enemy of Italy. Lian was not a good man, my angel, he did horrible things and ruined the lives of many women!- I explained hiding some details.- I killed him when I found out he was harming a child, who by the way was the son of a childhood friend of mine . I made a mistake killing that idiot without investigating his background! Vincenzo somehow found out that you were my weakness, if he did something against you I would lose my mind and be vulnerable. He wanted to use you against me, he wanted to hurt you and that I could not allow at all!!!

- Hurt myself? I didn't do anything!-Her voice came out very low.

- I know my baby, but he thought you would do something related to mafia. His original plan was to kidnap you, hurt you a lot, and make you give out information! I couldn't just sit there and wait for something to happen, I wouldn't forgive myself if you got hurt my angel. You're all I have, my blood boils at the thought of you in another man's hands. That day Olivia woke you up in a hurry, one of my informants warned me that their mafia was going after you! That's when I made the decision to send you here. Iris resolved the situation, in my way of course, and would come back ASAP! But unfortunately something happened that stopped me. I asked Nick to look after you during this time and let me know if anything went wrong. I took your phone off because they could easily track it, so this one is in the middle of the forest! It was the best option at the time.

- Wow... I didn't expect all this. - She said in surprise, taking her pacifier and keeping it in her hand. Her look was a little doubtful when we spent a few seconds in silence. - You were the one watching me, right?!

- Yes.- I chuckled when she frowned.- I never left you, I was watching you from afar and it calmed me to think you were safe!- Even though I knew she was very upset and couldn't get out of bed. I'm sorry things have to be that way, my baby.- I kissed her forehead when some tears threatened to fall.

- Thanks for protecting me daddy, I understand your side.- She smiled and kissed my cheek.

In all the months I've been gone, I haven't had a second that I haven't missed you. Lack of her body heat, her red cheeks when I say something she's ashamed of, her cute little way and when she said she loved me.

Milly became everything to me, she changed my heart in a drastic way! My heart was hers, and that I couldn't deny.

We spent the entire afternoon together, I even played with her dolls. Milly had a lot of teddy bears, some pretty ugly ones, but if she hears me talking it's going to kill me.

- Baby, let's go out when you finish your milk? - I asked stroking her soft, fragrant hair. Her eyes were closed as she sucked the bottle's contents calmly and without any concern.

-Where to?-She ​​asked, a bit sly. She doesn't want to leave me for anything, she's always asking for a lap and a bottle, I don't complain! She's been away from me too long and I don't want to waste a moment.

-A garden near here, I want to take you to know the place.- I said and her head nodded. After a few seconds she finished her bottle and went upstairs to her room to get ready.

I took advantage of the fact that it was ready and went to touch my cell phone, a silly smile escaped my lips when I saw her picture as my wallpaper. Sometimes I look like a teenager in love, with the feelings under my skin.

I gave Olivia and Max a few weeks' vacation, they helped me a lot during all this mess and deserve a break.

-I'm ready daddy!-Her voice appeared behind me. I turned towards her and nearly fell off the couch when I saw her clothes.

-You're beautiful baby.- I went towards her kissing her lips quickly. I heard her laugh and she hugged me.

- Let's go.- I held his hand going towards the garage. I decided to get my bike, I am completely in love with sport bikes.

- How will I go up? It's too big! - she said in awe, making me laugh. I put the black helmet in it and helped it up, I did the same.

During the way Milly squeezed me trying not to fall, it was funny her screams. The road was peaceful and without any movement, except for the animals passing by. After a while we arrived at the garden that brought me so much peace.

I used to come here when I was tired. The work always left me exhausted and I often received threats, I always maintain my serious and cold posture, but I am always falling back. My past was not the best, much less affectionate.

-What a beautiful daddy!-She took me out of my thoughts with her excitement.
