Hundred and sixty one
Arnold's POV
"Let's wait for Angelina to decide." He said and my fingers squeezed tightly around the phone.
" Don't ever call her number again." I warmed, making sure he noticed the displeased in my voice.
I could burn him if I wanted to.
And I would if he tried to make any move against me.
He wanted to use her to fulfil his agreement with the Romanos and so did I want her for myself. If he fucking think he could take her away from me then he was fucking wrong because I wasn't going to let him nor would I let her step an inch away from me.
She was fucking mine.
For three years he did nothing but poison her mind against me.
He made her think the worst of me to get her away from me but I was glad his effort ended in nothing.
I hung up the call and pulled my phone from my pocket.
I dialed Marco's number." Get a new SIM card under her name."
" Make sure Xandros doesn't get access to it." I ordered before hanging up the call and shoving my cell phone into my pocket.
Three years. I gave him the chance to erase me from her life and mind but he couldn't, and this time it was my fucking turn.
All he ever did was told her how do much of a devil I was.
He told her both the truth and the life to turn her against me.
But I wasn't going to use words alone. I would make sure I erase everything that has to do with him from her life and I would do it in seconds.
I stepped closer to the bed.
Her face pale, her lips dry and her breathing slower.
The door suddenly pushed open and my back stiffened for a few seconds.
" Arnold, how is she?" Katherine's voice came as a whispered, shocked laced in her to e as grief lingered at the edge.
I turned my head to her, Katherine and her face looked paled.
Worried, scared and pained.
My gaze only stayed on her for a few seconds before it turned back to my wife's pale face.
" What happened to her?" She asked in a cold whisper. I could feel her lips shaking.
Yes, Angelina didn't only mess with me but the entire Wolfe family. She messed with me, my family, and my men.
Even Riccado who was trainee to kill, slaughter ad destroy was attached to her.
We weren't supposed to show weakness. Katherine was better than what she has become now.
She breaks rules to serve her just like I did to make her happy.
" Who let you in?" I asked, kepping my voice stern and clear.
My cold eyes stuck to her face. I didn't know what she has done to me to make me this crazy about her but I was fucking crazy about her." I was worried about her. I wanted to know if she was okay I tried calling her but no one was picking up."
" So I went to the Wolfe mansion and Uncle Davide told me you left for New York so I followed." She added and I shoved both my hands in my pockets and turned to face her.
" You stepped into the mansion?" I asked and she let out a sigh.
The last time she stepped I to the mansion was when she was still little. That was when my grandfather brought her into the Wolfe family.
" I was worried about her. I knew she wouldn't shut me out just like that." She explained and I nodded my head slightly.
Whatever bond they shared I didn't want to fucking know but she must know her place.
She couldn't fucking step into my house without my fucking permission.
" Can I at least stay with her?" She asked and I narrowed my eyes.
" It will be for a few minutes. I just..."
" No, you have exhausted the minutes you have here," I said in a flat tone. My cold gaze was pointing at.
" Arnold please "
" I can take care of my wife." I declared and she dropped her eyes.
" Arnold?" Her toy voice rang from behind me.
My back stiffened for a few seconds hearing the familiar voice I haven't heard for the past three days.
" Water." She added and I turned. My eyes stared at Angelina's face, which was pale.
Fuck, she was awake.
" Water, I want water " she repeated and I rushed to her side, poured water into a glass, and helped her drink it.
I was still in shock. I still couldn't believe she was fucking awake after three damn days.
I didn't know how I survived these three days without her but I fucking did." Kathy?" She called weakly as I placed her head back on tbr the." She was about to leave." I said, my hand slipping around hers." But Arnold...."
" Get the fuck out of my house." I,demanded and without a fucking choice she left, shutting the door behind her.
I called the doctor and he said he was on his fucking way.
I attended to Angelina. She said she wanted to pee so I carried her to the bathroom.
I helped her to the toilet since her body was too weak to do that on her own. I helped her put on her underwear after she was done before carrying her back to the room.
The doctor was still not in and it had been more than five minutes. I pulled out my phone and called him again which and he picked up immediately.
I asked him where he fucking was and he said he was at the mansion.
I hung up the call and turned back to my wife. She was weak.
Her head was still in banda age.
I grabbed her hand and placed a soft kiss at hon knuckle.
" Are you okay? Are you feeling pain anywhere?" I asked, worry obvious in my tone.
I wasn't sure how to put it but I was curious and wanted to know how she was feeling.
" The doctor is coming." I kissed her knuckle for the second time, fingers rubbed her palm softly as I looked into her green tired eyes.
I couldn't fucking imagine life without her.
" I'm fine," she finally said and my eyes relaxed on her.
A knock came on the door before it pushwas ed openopen was the doctor.
I got up from the bed to let him do his damn job but not without kissing his forehead.
He finished within a few minutes. He said she was fine and she would regain her strength in a few days.
He prescribed some drugs for her and changed her headbandage before leaving.
I still couldn't believe she was awake. I would fucking do anything to make her stay awake for the rest of her life.
She insisted on taking a bath despite my words and persuasions, claiming she wasn't feeling herself and her body smelled bad disagreed with her because I loved the smell of her body. I didn't smell anything bad about her body but I had to give in just like always.
I first went into the bathroom to prepare a hean rath.
A warm water bath with a favorite body wash.
I wanted to carry her to the bathroom but she refused and insisted on walking by herself.
It was beyond what I could fucking take.
I carried her in my arms into the bathroom where I sat her in the bathtub.
She wanted to take off the bandage and wash her hair but I didn't let her.
I stood at the side of the bathroom watching her bathe in the tub.
" It was Elizabeth." She suddenly said." I know." I whispered back and she looked up at me from the bathtub." She hates you. I saw it in her eyes." She explained and I fucking knew that.
She has sent men after me. Of course I k, new she didn't like me but I didn't fucking care about what she felt for
" She won't be able to hurt you again." I told her." What did you do to her?" She asked and I met her eyes." What I should have done a long time ago." I explained.
" Which is?"
Her curious gaze stared at me and fuck! I missed her.
