Chapter Matteo

30

I had been staring at the doors to the operating theater for the past three hours. My hands were trembling, and my heart hadn't stopped beating fast ever since it happened. Everything was happening too fast because the last thing I knew, we were in bed. She was supposed to stay in bed. She told me she was going to the bathroom, and that was supposed to be it.

There were a lot playing in my mind; from her surviving her injuries or dying and leaving me forever. We were at the beginning of our highs, starting the marriage of with a lot of possibilities. There was nothing more than happiness. I knew I had a lot of enemies, and I was bound to keep them out of my life especially away from Alena. It didn't matter to me if I had to deal with them every day as long as my wife, Alena was safe and sound. I knew of her background. I knew she had the skills to fight because Mikhail had taught her when she was younger, but she hadn't encountered a dangerous situation like that, and it was impossible for her to be fully prepared.

My body was growing restless because I couldn't wait any longer. The waiting had gotten me anxious of what was happening inside. Was she having complications? Was she going through something awful?

I needed to know.

"Matteo," someone called which caused me to look up, seeing Luca..

He was wearing a black hoodie with black sweatpants as he sat down beside me. There were dark circles under his eyes, and I was confident my dark circles were much more obvious-I had been crying ever since they took her inside the operating theater.

If it was taking any longer for me to see my wife, I was about to lose my mind.

"How long has she been inside?" He asked, breaking the silence. "Three hours."

"Because I want to do the killing."

Luca sighed, placing a hand on my shoulder. "Do you think that's a good idea, Matteo? You're not thinking straight right
