Chapter Twenty Three

Mia's pov

I hear footsteps echoing in the long dark hallway,I let out more tears the gun in my shaking hands still pointing towards the entrance.The footsteps come to a halt at the entrance and all I see is a dark,tall human figure.I close my eyes and pull the trigger, "Ouch!"I hear a very familiar Russian accent cry out.

"R-Rafael....?"I stutter.

"Baby doll are you okay?"He asks while stepping closer and wrapping me in his arms ,I push him away and start hitting at his very chiselled chest, "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!! Do you not understand I am pregnant with twins?"I cry letting all my frustration and anger out on him and his poor chest that was receiving all the punches.

He tries to envelope me in a hug but I push him away yet again by throwing my small fists at his chest.

"Muffin calm down."He says as he grabs my hands prohibiting me from continuing with my actions,I yank my hands out of his grip and look up tears still rolling down my eyes, "Rodriguez if anything happens to my children,anything at all just know that you will be held accountable for it and I will NEVER forgive you,EVER!"

"Muffin..."He trails off while grabbing my hand stopping from walking away, "Leave my hand Rodriguez."

"No."

"I said leave my hand Rodriguez!"I yank my hand out of his grip and it hits his shoulder by mistake.Rafeal grunts and I look down at my hand as I felt wet sensation, "Blood?"I question confusion evident in my tone,I look up at Rafeal and I see that he now had his hand placed on his shoulder that I had hit by accident.I remove his hand from his shoulder and there it was,the bullet that I had shot not so long ago.

"Rafeal,your shoulder...."I say while touching his arm, "Let's go get the first aid kit."I grab him by his other hand and rushing him out the secret hiding place.

Alex drops the box in his hand when he sees Rafael and I approaching, "What happened!?"

"It's okay."Reafeal reassures me as I now hid behind him after seeing all these men walking around the house some with guns in their hands and some with boxes

"Miss Anderson."The one with a gun and an eyepatch greets,I cling onto Rafael's hand and I see him smirk.Deep down inside I want to let go of him to show him that I don't need him to keep me safe and comfort me but on the other hand I'm afraid and at this point I feel like he is the only person who can protect me and keep me calm.

"It's okay babydoll let's go up so you can tend to my wound."He says ever so cocky,I nod my head never leaving his hand and follow him up the stairs.

"Brat-What is you break stupid!"Alex sentence is cut short when he hears something smash.

"Sorry,I broke the white vase by the entrance."The man answers and I feel Rafeal's grip on my tighten, "You broke the what?"He questions in a calm but scary tone.

"T-the white case by the entrance."He repeats and I look to Alexandro who's face is now red,fuming with anger before looking up at Rafeal to see if his famous vain was showing on his forehead because that's usually how you see when he is angry,but to my surprise it wasn't there but one thing that was,was tears.

Rafeal?Tears?

I look at him again just to make sure that I'm not hallucinating.I take my hand and wipe one of his tears that had fallen on my forehead, "Ra-

"Let's go."He commands and leads me up the stairs.

"This is going to hurt a bit."I warn putting the cottonwool that had cleaning spirits on his wound. immediately as the cottonwool gets into contact with his skin he grunts and squeeze my hand which he never let go off since we walked out the secret room, "Im sorry."I say while gently dapping on his wound trying to clean it.
