"In bed," he warns. I'm on bed rest since you leave this hospital, do you understand me?
Looking at him I can read what he feels from his features, his grimaces and all that.
-Why are you mad?
"Because I wasn't around, I feel like whenever they hurt you it's my damn fault." He walks over to put me back on the bed. And it is, I'm to blame.
"Whether you have it or not doesn't matter anymore, I want you to give me an answer." His jaw tenses, he tries not to touch on the subject. I am going to learn everything you teach me because it is necessary, it is something that I want and that I want you to fulfill for me.
—You're going to receive a lot of hits, that's how you learn.
—I don't care, let them be whoever they want because tomorrow I don't want to need anyone, I want to be the one who defends myself without having to hide behind your back so you can do everything for me.
—It depends on how you behave these two days.
—I'm not a little girl.
—Now yes because you are injured and you must be in bed, apart from the fact that you are stubborn, not even with a bullet in the abdomen you managed to stop, you continued walking after healing.
-I am very strong.
—Yes, I see,princeessa.
Picking me up again, he takes me to the truck that begins to move towards the house. I don't say anything, I just enjoy the wind that passes through the windows to give me a little calm. I let his hand rest on my thigh until we reach him and he again does me the favor of carrying me.
For a moment I think he's going to take me to my room, however, he takes me to his room, which is on the second floor. It's bigger, with more space and even some armchairs in the center so you can chat if you feel like it. When he leaves me sitting on the bed he changes completely, staying in the simple boxers that highlight his muscles and bulge.
—Stop thinking things about the devil, woman.
-You are the devil.
-That's all?
I remember the conversations a few days ago and the date we had, ultimately it wasn't just that and I didn't want it to be just the devil. I wanted to have power, I wanted to feel big and I better start marking territory.
—You are my devil.
—Yes, I believe so,principessa.
He looks for a new shirt of his on the chest of drawers, he changes me completely so I can go to bed. For a moment I feel like this bed was too big and lonely, but the moment he walks with me, letting me take refuge in his arms, it feels different.
Less cold, less empty.
—Salvatore, I want... I think the sleep and the antibiotic along with the beating make me think things that I don't.
-What are you thinking?
—That I want to be the lady of the 'Ndrangheta —I sigh, I close my eyes that are beginning to weigh me down, my eyelids are going to droop. I want to become owner of everything that belongs to you, I want to take it away from you.
—Okay, I didn't expect that.
—Yes, you said to take it all, to ask for whatever I want and I want the power of all this.
—Are you aware of the enemies I have?
—They are my enemies too and that woman is added to my list.
I snuggled into his arms feeling quite sleepy, my head stopped throbbing, however, I still felt the blood running down my face.
