Now I’m able to get a good look at her, she’s a mess. Beautiful, but a mess nonetheless.

Beatrice is quickly at her side, holding her hair back and rubbing soothing circles on her back.

“Shh, Cam, you need to calm down. This can’t be good for you or the baby,” Beatrice soothes.

Baby?

My eyes go wide.

Fuck!

No, she’s on the pill.

Shit, she said we were safe.

Leo stalks toward me and slams me against the wall, again. I’m getting really fucking tired of him challenging me.

Although right now, he’s justified. This is a fucking mess.

“Not only did you fucking ignore me and violate her, you didn’t suit up? What the fuck is wrong with you? Do you have a death wish? That’s what awaits you when Dante finds out you defiled and impregnated his little princess.” He slams me against the wall again.

More dry heaving has both of us snapping our eyes toward Cam.

“Leonardo, stop, please. You’re upsetting her,” Beatrice whispers.

“Upsetting her? She’s pregnant and unmarried, she should be more than fucking upset. She should be fucking terrified. You need to go to the doctors, Cam, get rid of it. That’s the only solution to this.”

I slam into Leonardo and have my hand at his throat. “That’s my fucking child you’re talking about. Shut your mouth.” I push off him forcefully.

I need to talk to her, only Beatrice isn’t going to make this easy. She steps in front of me and holds me off.

“You need to go, Alessandro, you can’t be here. You’re upsetting her, and that’s not good for her or the baby. Leonardo will text you later when everything has calmed down.” She pushes me gently away from Cam.

“No one’s making decisions without me. I get just as much a say in this as you, Cam.” I growl.

Cam doesn’t even acknowledge me.

“No one’s making any decisions. This is all raw. Once everyone has calmed down, you can sit down and discuss it. But that isn’t tonight.” Beatrice stands tall and refuses to let me pass.

I storm toward the door. Before I leave, I make one final statement.

“Cam, if you need me, you have my number.”

Then I leave.

I practically spent the whole night pacing.

She’s fucking pregnant.

How do we even deal with that?

I spoke to Leo at length last night, which I needed. He may be pissed right now, but he’s still the one person I know I can trust. Nothing was settled. We left it at, we will get this shit sorted with his cousins and the cartel, then we can sit down and discuss the options. I have no fucking clue what she wants to do. Does she want to keep it? Get rid of it? That last option doesn’t sit right with me. But ultimately, I know the final decision is hers, and I’ll support her whatever she decides.

“Are you even fucking listening to me?” Max growls.

I’m snapped out of my thoughts by Max’s fist slamming on the table in front of him. Jake texted us all this morning to discuss information regarding a possible attack from the cartel and Leo’s cousins. Leo called us all in to discuss how best to handle this.
