Charity's pov....
"How is she"  I looked at Doctor Fabio. Fabio is Matamorose's father, they barely saw eye to eye, that would explain his absence in Angel's room.
I knew his lips were moving but my eyes were on my sister laying on the bed, I looked at Hailee rub Angel's sore wrist softly.
This was one of the few times we saw Angel somewhat defenseless. Her skin was pale, the bruise that sported her body. Daye took his time with her maybe because of his obsession with her. Her hands moved a bit as if warning us of her impending night terrors.
Hailee hugged her till she stopped whriting and trashing violently In her hands.
"Angel" Hailee cooed her and continued to run her hair
"I didn't know she still gets nightmares"  Amara whispered. I knew the one thing Angel feared was sleep, she hate reliving her past and the nightmares terrified her, haunted her....

I looked at Apollo standing just looking at Angel, his eyes never once leaving her
"That's why she's always tired" I nodded since I was the only who heard him, I hoped he would be the light that Angel desperately searched all her life  for.
I remembered whenever I was bullied in the school or at the orphanage. Angel stood up for me, I remembered how Angel took the blame for me in the orphanage and was starved, I remembered the countless fights she had gotten involved because of me.... I admired her and loved her so much. I wiped my eyes, a stray tear had leaked from my eyes. Which reminded me that Angel barely cried and she hated when we did, it always made her want to punch who ever made us cry. It would be ironic if she indeed punched her self for making me cry .
"We should leave her to rest " Hailee said and we nodded leaving her alone with Apollo at her side.....

Angel's pov....
I had been awake for an hour just simply watching Fierri as he slept, his lips were formed in a soft  pout which made me chuckled a bit.
His eyes fluttered open softly and I saw the emerald like eyes stare at me in shock. I poked his dimple once to snap him out of his shock. He pounced on me hugging me tightly
I was akward in his arms, hugging was an action I was barely familiar with, I had done it a handful of times yet it was still akward
"I am happy you are alright " he whispered In my ear and I awkwardly pat his back
"Do you need anything " he asked and I shook my head,
He slapped his head like he forgot something "I'll call fabio"
"He came already" I chuckled a bit he seemed embarrassed, it wasn't his fault that he was a heavy sleeper. I had seen my sisters too.
They were all headed to Argentina probably to end Marcello cartel...
"Your sisters are ...."
"Headed to Argentina, I saw them" he nodded and was being akward once again.
Fabio came bringing in a bowl of soup with him
"Oh hell no" I pushed the soup away, I hated soup, technically I hated watery food.
"No" I glared at Fabio and he matched my glare
"Bring me a burger or something" Apollo walked in on my glaring competition with the old man
"I'll make sure she eats" fabio nodded not before telling me to eat.
Apollo fed me the soup in silence, when I asked him questions, he answered it Curtly and shortly. I lay my head down the medications had begun taking effects...

When I awoke, Apollo was no where to be found, my legs padded the floor as I searched around for Apollo.
I found him in the gym, throwing a feeble punch at the punching bag
"What are you doing " I asked him amused
"Learning how to fight"  I raised my brow walking to him, silently asking why
"Why" he furiously unstrapped the gloves on his hands.
"Because I want to protect you" he yelled and threw the gloves on the floor before storming out leaving me flabbergasted.
I followed him to the kitchen seeing him Gulp down a bottle of water
"Apollo " I called and he ignored me, I grabbed a knife and threw it at him, I made sure it missed him by a few Inches, it landed perfectly in the wall beside his left ear. I marched to him
"You wanna tell me the fuck is wrong with you"
He looked away from me and i grabbed his chin making him look at me
"Apollo" I called sternly
"You're my problem" I backed away from him
He moved away from me and I removed the knife and I threw it once again, pining his shirt to the wall
"Apollo, talk I'm serious"
He ran his hands over his face exasperated
"I couldn't protect you Angel." Lines formed on my fore head, I was confused.
"Do you know how hard it was seeing laying there bruised" his voice raised an octave higher
"I felt..." His voice broke at the end and I looked in his glossy eyes
I walked closer to him and cupped his cheek softly
"I am here aren't i"
He nodded and I grabbed his hands, walking to gym.
I threw the gloves at him
"I'll teach you how to fight, but I'll warn you. I'm pretty strict" I teased and I felt Warm when I saw the smile on his face.

I gently grabbed his arms and positioned them right, I bent his fingers, ignoring that his breathing was ragged, I positioned his fingers into a fist. I touched his stomach and looked him in the eye while bending down
"Tighten your core for a better punch" he nodded and threw a punch, I kicked his legs apart for a better form.
"Try again." He nodded and aimed at the punching bag. I sat at the counter top watching Apollo stick his head in the fridge
"Thank you " he said handing me a bottle a water
"No problem " I took a sip of water " Don't make me throw knives at you just to make you talk Apollo."
"Understood"
He nodded and I raised his chin up "words Tesoro "
He coughed slightly to cover the blush
"Understood."

Some one knocked and I opened the door seeing a bouquet of dead roses, my nose instantly picked up a burning smell and I pushed Apollo inside locking the door and immediately we heard a small explosion outside the door....
