The Lost Mafia Princess

31.)

We quickly clean up, and head back.

I let him go back first, before I slowly made my way back.

Galina smiled as she asked if anyone wanted a drink as we sat down.

The men had disappeared to talk business in Aleksi's office leaving the ladies in the sitting room discussing plans for the upcoming holidays and summer. 

She offered the ladies from our family some orange juice which I gladly took along with some freshly baked cookies. While the other women had cheese and crackers. 

We decided to move back to the dining room to eat, once we finished eating we made our way back.

We were about to move to the sitting room again when we heard shots ring out.

All the men quickly appeared.

"Stay here." Bucky ordered as they all disappeared.

I looked at my mom, who pulled me into a side hug as we all sat there silently.

After what seemed like an eternity, then men rushed back in.

"We need to get you ladies home." My dad said as he motioned for us to get up.

He led us all to the SUV. As more shots began to ring out.

I flinched as he pulled his gun out and tried to help me into the car.

A moment later I gasped as I felt a sharp pain hit my arm and area under my ribs.

"Dad .." I gasped in pain as I clutched the area.

"Fuck!" He shouted as he picked me up and set me into the backseat seat.

"Clint get her to the hospital! Quickly!" He orders as he slammed the door.

My mom quickly moved to my side and helped me put pressure on the wounds.

"Is she going to be okay?" Sharon asks as Pepper and Maria watch horrified.

I groaned in pain as I kept my hand pressed to the wound on my arm.

"It's alright, sweetheart. We're almost there." My mom says as she tries to keep me from panicking.

"Barton, how far are we?" Maria asked, tensely.

"Still a mile away ma'am." He said.

"Well, you better fucking hurry!" My mom growled as he accelerated.

A moment later, I felt myself being lifted out of the SUV and placed onto a gurney.

An oxygen mask was placed over my face, as I felt my breath become shallow breaths.

"Mrs. Barnes? We need you to try to calm down." A nurse says.

"My baby… Save my baby." I begged in between breaths.

"She's pregnant." The nurse gaps.

"Get her to the operation room now!" A doctor says.

As soon as they say that, I feel myself lose consciousness.

I woke up sometime later, with my left arm burning along with my right side. I felt groggy and sore as I stared around the white, sterilized room that smelled of bleach and rubbing alcohol. 

"Mrs. Barnes?" The familiar nurse says.

My eyes snapped to the direction of the voice. I nod in acknowledgement, groaning as I shifted and the burning on my side turned worse.

"The bullet went straight through. It missed all the main arteries, and vital organs. We managed to stop the bleeding, and patch you back up." He said.

"Did something happen to the baby?" I asked tearfully.
