A doctor came and knelt beside Anna. "What happened?"

"An ambush. The wedding was going perfect and then we had a surprise ambush. They were just shooting up the place. I never caught who they were though. Anna saw the cake get knocked and she jumped out to save the bride and groom decals from being shattered. She caught them, but she got shot in the side as she jumped." Gabriel explained. "Is she going to be ok?"

The doctor pulled the bullet out and bandaged the wound. "She'll be fine. She's just unconscious. I'd say she'll wake up within an hour or two. She didn't lose too much blood thanks to your pressure until I got here."

"Oh thank God. Thank you, Doctor."

The doctor nodded and tended to the wounded guests.

Two hours later, Anna woke up and saw Gabriel. "Gabriel." She murmured.

"I'm here, Anna." He said stroking her hair and squeezing her hand.

"The baby."

"The baby is fine. No damage to it." Anna sighed in relief. "Everything's going to be just fine. I promise. I'll find the ones that did this. When I do, I'll kill them."

Anna nodded and sat up wincing in pain. "I'm ok. Just a little sore." She reassured.

Gabriel nodded and sat her in his lap. "That's understandable." He said putting his hands on her abdomen and kissing her temple.

Anna put her hands on his laying her head on his shoulder. "I love you, Gabriel. And I love this baby. I can't lose this baby."

"You won't. I'll make sure of it too. I love you both so much." He replied rubbing her belly and kissing the top of her head.
