It was raining outside, inside the dimly lit hospital room the Doctors and nurses who were coming and going as to try and save mother and child had finally gone, making peace with the fact that for now there wasn’t much they could do since she was still unconscious due to the fact of having lost a lot of blood and now all was left was to see how she would do for the upcoming 48 hours.
Angelo watched as Don Micah sat beside the unconscious body of Snow while holding her hand in his as he was slumped back in his chair, his eyes closed. He was still wearing the clothes from the day before who had dried blood on it from Snow’s wound mixed up with some dirt and sweat. Angelo sighed after finishing the report. He looked up at the man who was feared by all and held a lot of power and to the woman who was practically the same as him and maybe even more so since her power was beyond human thinking…
And now these two powerful people had created a baby together!
He shook his head, still in disbelieve thinking of all the tests he had done on her in the past. He felt incompetent as for no having seen it sooner as to make her do a test…but yeah who would have thought such a thing would or could happen in the first place? He tried to excuse his acusing self conscious.
Afraid to wake him up, Angelo stood in the corner of the room while reading the medical report of Snow. Then a sudden knock almost wakes Micah up as Angelo sees the sudden frown appear on Micah’s face. So he quickly rushed over to the door and opened it slightly and peeked outside who was disturbing the peace that finally had settled down a bit in Snow’s room after all the hustle and bustle.
“Who.….oh Donna! Sorry didn’t know you were coming, but I did not want to wake up Don Micah, it has been a long night for him since he stayed up all day and all night keeping watch.” Angelo explained with a flustered face.
But Anastasia dint flinch. She glanced over his shoulder a looked at her son who slept beside Snow and scowled deeply.
“Do whatever it is but make sure that baby will never see the daylight in nine months time, got that my dear doctor?! I want her dead, Angelo, so if you truly love me like I know you do hmm, you will do what I ask alright!” Anastasia whispered darkly at him.
Angelo’s eyes widened in shock upon hearing her request, not understanding why on earth she wanted an innocent unborn child dead!
“Kill?!! W…why Donna? She is going to give you a grand child so why would you want to have her dead?” Angelo replied her in utter bewilderment.
“He is married to Sheila, not to Snow and besides, that woman is not to be trusted don’t you understand?! She needs to go, because she is a treat to our empire Angelo and I will NOT stand by and watch her taking everything and destroy it in the progress, you understand?!” She hissed making Angelo to swallow deeply.
“But an innocent child Donna, I can’t do that! I just can’t!” He muttered back.
“I don’t give a damn!! The child will NEVER be acknowledged by ME and if you don’t do it, I will make sure it will be done by somebody else oh and no word about it to Micah or anybody else for that matter if you want to live!” she replied.
“But…but…”
But before Angelo could finish his last reply Anastasia had turned around and walked away, leaving Angelo behind in a cloud of intoxicating perfume that made his insides mush, but then he remembered the wickedness and coldness and a shiver run over his back. He sighed and slowly turned around only to be met with a deep set of dark stormy eyes who were throwing daggers at him…
“D…don?!…” Angelo gasped in horror as fear made its way to his heart as a snake approached his prey…
“For your own good health I will only as you this once…..who was talking to you from the hallway?” Micah lowly growled with blood shot eyed from lack of sleep, stress and now murderous anger.
Angelo gulped before opening and directly closing his mouth…
“I…I can’t…she…she will kill me if I talk i….I’m sorry!” He whispered.
Micah chuckled darkly.
“And I will kill you if you don’t talk, so either way you are a dead man doctor, but here is the deal, if you tell me what I want and help me then I might let you live and only punish you for a bit but if I find out you are lying to me I will kill you in the slowest and most painfullest way imaginable, git that? So you better make your choice!” Micah stated why waiting impatiently for the doctor to answer.
Angelo slowly walked over and too the seat beside Snow’s bed while Micah watched him him like a hawk.
“Your mother, Don…..your mother was the one talking to me!” He finally admits to Micah after a debate with his inner self.
Micah’s eyes widen in disbelieve as he stares at the old man in front of him…
“Come again?! My mother??….why on earth does she wants to have Snow killed?! I thought she loved her? What is going on?!” Micah raised the question more to himself then to Angelo who sat with his head in his hands, realizing that his infatuation with the Donna was not healthy.
“I’m so sorry Don, I …I was blinded by my love for her, but you must believe me when I say that I told her that I couldn’t do it! I really can not kill an innocent child even though I don’t really like what the mother has done in the past! I am a healer, NOT a killer!” He replied Micah in the hope that the Don would believe him.
“Good, keep it that way! Now can I trust you that you will keep an eye out for her and whenever she is contacting you in any way that you will let me know asap?”
“Y…yes Don of course, whatever it takes I will make sure you heir will survive!”
“Thank you but not only my heir, also the mother please!”
“Sure Don, sure!”
“Excellent! Now you stay here and keep an eye out while I go back home to see what my mother is up to!” Micah stated before walking over to Snow.
Micah leaned in and pressed a feather light kiss on her lips and the as last on her forehead.
“Fight Snow, don’t give up! Fight for our baby! While I fight for you to keep you safe! I will be back as soon as I can ok!” He whispered into her ears before walking straight out of her room with a determination edged on his face.
“If you want a war mama, a war you will get!!” Micah muttered to himself as he stepped inside his car and drove of into the direction of his mansion.
