Leo's pov

I have no idea how long I've been slamming my fist against the wall, but I'm guessing quite a lot since I can no longer feel my hand. Numbness is all I feel as of this moment.

Falling down to my knees. I let out a loud frustratedly sigh hating myself like never before. Thanks to me and my rage, Madison and my son are in critical condition right now. I glance down at my bloody knuckles not feeling any pain instead I feel pain in the inside for hurting my pregnant wife. I swore to myself I wasn't going to hurt her anymore like I did in the beginning. She changed me without even trying. I honestly feel like she's healing me deep within from all of the torment I went through as a kid. But tonight, I accidentally hurt her all thanks to not being able to control this anger that's always been a problem.

I let out a hysterical grunt wanting to rewind time to where that bastard of Madison's ex interrupted my night. I should of handled things differently and most importantly I should of listened to Madison. All of this could of been avoided.

"Please save my son lord and for Madison to be okay. I know I'm a huge sinner and done horrible shit, but please don't let my sins cost an innocent child's life... punish me not them," I murmur yo myself. For the first time in my life, I pray. It's the only thing I could think of during this stressful situation. I believe the devil exists, I mean just look at me, so I'm sure there's a God out there too.

"Mr. Castillo?," a female voice murmurs from behind me.

I immediately stand up peering at the red head nurse, "Yes?"

"Your wife is now stable," she casually says while glancing down at her clipboard. I let out a breathe knowing that the woman I love is safe. However, there's still one more person I still have to worry about.

"And my son?," I nervously question fearing the worst. The nurse looks down at her clipboard once again before she looks up leveling her hazel eyes with mine.

"He's fine too... everything is all stable now," she smiles. All of the weight I had pressuring down on my shoulders are lifted up instantly feeling at ease.

"Oh my... sir your hand!," she gasps making her way to me grabbing my hand examining it.

"It's fine... take me to my wife," I mutter pulling my hand back away from her grasp.

Madison's pov

The door creaks open revealing the nice nurse that's been attending me since I was rushed in here from the club. Due to my panic, the doctor had to sedate me, which completely knocked me out almost instantly. Waking up, the doctor reassured me that everything is fine. My baby is safe still growing inside my womb. Once the nurse steps inside fully. My eyes lock with Leo's chocolate brown eyes. Immediately, I avert my gaze away from him not at all happy to see him. He's the reason why I almost lost the only blessing I have in my life.

"Madison," he breathes, but I ignore his call for me.

"So the doctor had to leave due to her busy schedule, but she left me her notes about your case," the nurse says flipping through the papers on her clipboard.

"I almost lost my baby didn't I?," I mutter. The nurse inhales then exhales a breathe before responding, "Yeah, you were close to having a miscarriage, but the doctor was able to prevent that from happening."

"Tell the doctor I'll be rewarding her for saving my son," Leo casually says.

"Sure will, but I must say please Madison be more careful and definitely stay away from stressful situations for the sake of your baby," the nurse advises. If only it was that easy. As longest I'm by Leo's side stressful situations and danger will always lurk.

"When can she leave?," Leo cuts in before I could respond.

"She's free to go now.. just remain in bed rest for a day to be save."

"Thank you."

Leo and I arrive heading straight to our bedroom. Leo helps me lay on the bed being careful with my every move. The entire car ride back home, he didn't say a word to me. However, I can see remorse in his eyes whenever he looks at me. For a moment, I must admit Leo Castillo looks human for once showing some type of emotion.

"I'm so sorry baby," he suddenly utters.

"I don't want to hear it," I grumble.

"I know I fucked up big time. I almost killed my own son."

"I'm pregnant by a murderer, so I should of expected this," I grumble.

"Please don't say that. That isn't true, you're safe around me," Leo's voice cracks.

"That explains why I almost miscarried our son right?," I spat angrily glaring at him.

"It was a accident I didn't know it was you I swear. I promise I'll seek help for my anger please forgive me," Leo sits on the bed. His chocolate brown eyes brimming.

"I'm just so tired of living this life with you Leo. You're so difficult, I seriously just can't understand you no matter how hard I try. My baby is my world now Leo, so it's my job to protect him from danger including you," I breathe finally letting out my deepest feeling.

"I'll chan-"

"After what happened today, it's hard to see the good in you and to be honest with you Leo. You're not good," I angrily spat. Just as if my words were real knives. I see Leo face falter into complete pain and sadness. Never has he acted this way over my words, so for him to be effected by this, it's new.

"Please don't say that. I love you so much. I know I never said this to you before even though I should of because it's what I truthfully feel for you. I was just scared. I've never felt this way for anyone before. Heck I wouldn't even care for a female, but since I met you. You've touched me in ways I didn't think would ever happen to me. You make me happy Madison. You're the only light in my fucked up world. Being with you is all I need to feel alive. Something I haven't felt in such a long time. I love you Madison," Leo admits to me.

I'm completely speechless not believing my ears for what I just heard. Never in a million trillion years would I think this day would ever happen. I didn't even think Leo Castillo was capable of knowing the word love let anyone loving someone, but here he is admitting his love for me, an ordinary female.

"Y-you what?," is all I manage to mumble.

"I love you," he repeats himself.

"Leo, I don't know what to say."

"You don't have to say anything. I know you love me too. You've told me before," Leo murmurs leaning his lips onto mine. I don't hold back instead I let myself get lost in his lips returning the kiss like I've always done before. All of the anger completely disappears only focusing on my love for him. Crazy how love works. I almost feel like this twisted love is dangerous, but I just can't help, but love him.

The heart wants what it wants.

Leo and I are now laying down snuggling onto each other as I think about many things floating in my mind currently. Leo is sound asleep holding onto me like if his life depended on it. As much as I think about him confessing his love for me, I can't let it change my plan. Too many things has happened for me to consider staying. Even though, Leo has admitted his love. I know deep in my heart and brain he won't change. He would never leave the Red Eagles and change his life around for me. He just wouldn't, I know it.

Plus Leo has horrible plans for our son and like I said before it's my duty to protect my child. There's no way I will allow for my innocent baby boy to join this lifestyle, I absolutely hate. I will not let him be the heir to the red eagles nor Leo's dirty family businesses. So I must proceed with what I have planned all along.

Tomorrow is the day I escape and run far away from Leo Castillo.

Never to see him again.
