Chapter Thirteen

STEPHANI

I watched as Alicia ran into the bathroom, she must be going to cry. I wasn't really bothered because she needed to be told the truth... well what he want her to believe.. Ezra looked at me from across the table, our eyes met and i knew he was cursing me within his head.

I didn't give a shit I was the boss and my decisions were final.. I didn't take shit from nobody.  I saw Ezra slowly get up from the table from the corner of my eye, I knew he was going to check on her. I looked over at Mark and saw that he made no effort to get up or look at us, he just continued to eat.

Thing was Ezra was a good man strong brave and ruthless, but under that he had a heart, a soft heart. I was about to take another bite when I heard Ezra shout. I looked at Mark and he looked back at me then made a move towards the shouting.

Before we could fully make our way to him he was making his way to me holding an unconscious bloody Alicia.

"What the fuck happened?" Mark asked fuming.

"I don't know but she hit her head pretty hard, we got to take her to the doctor." He replied.

I pinched the bridge on my nose.. shit this woman was giving me more trouble than it's worth. "Fine lets go." I eventually said.

I tapped my foot uncontrollably as we waited for the results..  she had to get an MRI to make sure ahe didn't damage her brain. I was between feelings of not caring and actually being worried.

"Stephani come." His voice called, I got up and walked into the room. As I entered he signaled for me to sit opposite him. " everything seems to look fine." He said pointing at the scan of her brain. He went on and on telling me about the scans infront of me. What the fuck? Am i suppose to know what the hell he's saying I'm not a fucking doctor.

"Don't worry about the reddish parts though,"he said "that's normal when a woman gave birth." Those words made me snap my head up.

"What?" I asked.

"When a woman gives birth it changes the structure of her brain. It helps so she can cater to the needs of her baby." He explained " she's fine though no brain damage but she'll have a nasty headache." His words weren't sinking in, all that was going around my head was that she had a baby.. How long ago and from who?

"Could you tell me how long ago she gave birth?" Those words were like poision in my mouth.

"When i changed her into the medical robe i noticed her scar, she clearly had a C- Section." He said this obviously doesn't give me an answer.
" so based on the scaring and brain activity she gave birth a little over a year ago."

Shit doing the math in my head, she was pregnant when she left. That's why she left. Anger filled me. She left snd took my child with her and came back without him or her.

What kind of a fucking mother does that shit. I thanked the doctor and gave Mark orders to bring her back to the house. I couldn't look at her even if she was unconscious. I needed to find out where my child was and i will get that information out of her one way or another.

I was sitting in the room across from her bed waiting for her to wake up. She was sleeping for three days... Three days!! It took all my strength to not throw water on her. 

I saw her stir awake and looked around her surroundings, then her eyes fell on me "what happened?"she asked, her voice cracking.

"You had a consusion." I said seriously . She looked at me blankly "oh." She replied with a look as though she was gathering her thoughts.
She moved to the side of the bed and drank the glass of water Ezra left for her. Every morning he would change the glass of water by her bed and I would sit patiently waiting for her to wake up to answer my questions. 

"I'm going to cut the shit and ask you one question and i need you to tell me the truth." I said as I walked closer to her, her eyes looking at my heardened face and I saw a little fear flash across her face. "the doctor told me that you had given birth a little over a year ago but that's crazy because that would make you pregnant around the time that you left and you wouldn't do that now would you?" I asked staring into her eyes.

"What?" she asked trying to look confused.. I knew this question had caught her off guard, her playing dumb was only pissing me off more than i already was. 

"Did you leave knowing you were pregnant and came back here leaving our, MY child over there?" I spat at her holding her hand with such force i knew it was going to bruise but i didn't care. 

" What happened to respect one another?" she asked.  that question only pissed me off more, "Respect? you of all people asking me for respect?" I laughed "Bitch that left when you left and took my fucking child with you." I said as i threw her on the floor. 

"Now where is my child?" I asked towering over her. 

she looked at me "I'll never tell you.. i'll die before i say anything." she said. I pulled her off the floor and held her by her throat. "You will tell me where my child is or i swear to God." i threatened. 

"What?" she asked looking at me full in my eyes "I haven't got shit to lose." she said "I'd rather die than to have him here with you."

He, so i have a son, an heir the future ruler to my cartel.. That word He only made me angrier I have an heir and she was keeping him from me. I held her by the neck tighter. 

" Do it," she said taunting me "Kill me !" she shouted. 

"What the fuck Stephani drop her!" I heard a voice yell from the door. I turned to face the person... Ezra. I dropped her and she fell unto the floor breaking into tears. "No matter i'll just go back to that shit town to get my son back and kill anyone who stops me from taking him." I said looking at her. I saw Ezra looking from me to her confusingly. I didn't bother to stop and fill him in, that bitch would. 

I just put on my jacket and left the room slamming the door behind me.
