The same thing as me.

“Are you the father?”

“Yes.”

“How far along is she?”

“Eleven weeks.”

Resting my head in my hands, I pull at my hair. Romano is going to fucking pay, him and anyone involved will die for this.

I keep my eyes on Zara, the woman who owns my damn heart, and remember this moment. I will use it to fuel me to end this war. For her and for our baby.

53

FRANKIE

With one hand holding hers, the other stroking her stomach, I am completely fucking numb.

“Come on, angel. Come back to me.”

I can’t do this without her. The thought of having to rip her heart out when she wakes up makes me want to vomit.

She went straight into surgery and it was the worst two hours of my life.They managed to remove the glass and fix any internal damage. The scans showed there is no major head trauma. A few broken ribs, she’s going to be fine.

That’s the only thing keeping me together.

I squeeze her hand tighter. We have lost our future. Our baby is gone.

I stroke my thumb along the front of her hand. I’m so distracted in my own head, I don’t hear Grayson come through the door.

“Any improvements?” Grayson asks, and I shake my head.

“Keller?” I ask.

The pain flashes across his face.

“The surgery went as well as they could hope. They stopped the bleeding on his brain. It’s all on him waking up now. He’s in an induced coma.”

Fuck. I will forever be grateful to Keller. He saved Zara’s life.

“Did you call Luca?”

“He’s on his way home, boss. We need all of our family together to get through this.”

I let out a shaky breath.

My family is lying next to me on a hospital bed.

I rub my eyes. I’m almost too tired to think. “Have Enzo pick them up. Rosa can stay with Maddie and the kids at the safe house. Luca needs to be here with his brother.”

“You got it.”

“Where’s Jax?”

Kai’s death is going to hit him hard. We have to do what we can to stop him going off the rails.

“With us, boss. He’s not in a good way. He hasn’t said a fucking word.” Grayson runs his hand through his hair. The bags under his eyes tell me he feels just as exhausted as I am.
