9/Unforgiveable

(Media is how Larry's face looks in recovery.) WARNING: This chapter contains strong language and graphic content. Also this chapter is a little long. My apologies in advance, I hope you enjoy it!

Mia

This whole thing is horrible, I can't believe this happened. I shouldn't have caved about the babies' security. Then hiring Nanny, God, what was I thinking? She wasn't trained to defend herself much less anyone else. Why would they cut her head off? Was that some sort of message? That was unnecessary, this whole thing is unforgivable. I understand it is war but He has lost his mind involving the babies! I don't care what anyone says anymore each baby is getting a person security guard starting now.
I arrived at the hospital as Mai was arguing about checking all her children thoroughly, from x-rays to full blood panels. She wanted them to check for everything from harmful drugs to poisons to infectious diseases. I smiled remembering when Mai would raise this kind of hell on my behalf.
"Calm down, before you burst something." I covered my sister's mouth. Mai turned to hug me. "Go get checked, I will make sure they are all thoroughly checked and healthy."
Mai hesitated but I walked towards my nieces and nephew talking to the attending physicians, demanding to know everything they were doing to each baby. Mai was about to go with the medical staff when two blond young women and an even tall dark haired young man follow Matt and Draykov into the room with her babies.
I was in the middle of introducing the babies to the group when she walked back in.
"Who are they?" Mai demanded.
"Alexy's (Draykov) family. Dina and Diana are his nieces and Andrei is his nephew, they are here to provide security for your babies." I explained. "This is my twin sister, Mai. You won't meet our husbands until later." I made hasty introductions. "Your babies are safe, now go get checked out."
"But I don't -" Mai starts.
"Either this or I ship you all to Abba's fortress in Dubai. I'm sure your husband would love that." I stated sardonically. Mai snapped her mouth shut and left the room. I continued while making sure the names off the ID bracelets were attached to the right child.
"Lastly, Dina this is Lyric. You each go where your charge goes no exceptions." I said more to the medical staff then the Draykovs.

Laurent

Most of Mai's injuries were minor. She has a sprained wrist and an ugly bruise on her left side from hitting a wall. Her left knee and thigh were also bruised and she needed a few sutures above her eye from being hit.
Larry had several cracked ribs, cuts and bruises all over his face and knuckles. He have surgery to repair a few more damaged ribs and help repair his lungs that was punctured by a rib. They cannot tell if he have brain injury until he wake up but he not awake yet. I try not to think about him not waking up or believe his brain damaged. I try not to blame myself for not protecting him, but the more I try, the more angry I get. I walk around trying to calm myself down.

"I am here to see my grandchildren Larry and Mia Bourgeois." A man asked the nurse as I turned the corner.
"Who are you?" I asked loudly.
"I am Mia's father, Charles-Louis Bonaparte II. You must be Laurent." He responded. I did not answer, he gives me bad feeling just looking at him.
"You bastard! You dare show your face here after what you've done!" Mia yelled as she walked up behind him.
"You need to remember who you are speaking to." He stated calmly.
"You really think you can do whatever you want to whoever and no one is supposed to do anything?" I walked closer to Mia but she focused on her father.
"What did I do?" He responds innocently. "You could have avoided this. Now you have to live with the consequences." He said lowly as he leaned in towards her but I hear him.
"You knew this would happen?!" I exploded at Mia, her body twitched but she didn't look me in the eyes.
"NO! I knew he was capable-" She answered while glaring at him.
"What?!" I growled cutting her off, her eyes flew to mine. "You knew and you let this happen." She backed up and lowered her gaze then spoke softly.
"We live in a secure building with trained security, what more would you have me do?" Mia's voice grew softer and her demeanor became more submissive. This is the Mia that treats me as her King. She usually comes out when she knows she's in trouble. She knows I love this Mia but it won't save her from my rage right now.
"She could have not created the circumstances that lead to this." Monsieur Bonaparte added and in a blink she was gone. Her entire body tensed as she whipped around growling loudly at her father, this Mia is my 'mini beast', she has been showing up without warning lately.
"This is a private conversation between my husband and his wife. You need to leave! Mai doesn't want you here or anywhere near her family ever again! And don't think about going near Mai's babies their security has strick orders to use lethal force against anyone who comes near them that does not look like Mai or Larry." Mia warned as she pulled me down the hall away from him. "Oh one more thing, white takes queen, check."
"What did you do?" I growled loudly once we were some distance from her father. Her demeanor returned to my docile girl she was a few minutes earlier as she looked in my eyes.
"I fought for our marriage, for you! I fought to stay with you." Mia held on to my shirt looking at me with pleading eyes as Mai walked out of Larry's room and down to us.
"Whatever this is about, put it aside!" Mai hissed.
"I need to meet Maman!" I walked away.
"Draykov, please keep him safe." Mia pleaded.
"But!" He started to object.
"I have Matt, Mai and your family inside. I don't want him to be alone. Please hurry." Mia pleaded. He nodded and followed me.
