♥ CHAPTER SEVENTY THREE♥

Elisabeth.

My eyes are watering with so much happiness.

'' Dear? '' I look towards the door, seeing the five staring at me with a lot of concern.

'' Hello, my loves… I''I''I'm fine. '' I say and soon start crying, leaving them desperate.

'' My love, what happened? You are sick? Dylan asks, concerned.

'' No… I'm just happy.

They get confused.

'' Happy? Happy with what? Christopher asks.

'' At home. I want to count at home, not here.

They are suspicious, but agree.

'' All right, I'll talk to the doctor, I'll be right back. Christopher leaves the room.

'' And what is Mr. Lorenzo doing standing up? I ask, making him smile.

"You really think I would stay home after our wife fainted in my arms?" ’ I stick my tongue out at him. '' Whoever gives tongue is asking for a kiss.

I cross my arms.

'' I don't want a kiss, I want to get out of here.

“In a little while,” Alex says and I pout.

'' Wicked.

'' We love you. '' They talk together and smile like a fool.

'' I love you too.

Inside the car, I rest my head on Lorenzo's shoulder, he can't drive, if he does I'll kill him, so Dylan takes the wheel. I intertwine my fingers in Lorenzo's hand and stay still. I just want to see their reaction when they find out they're going to be parents, I'm so happy, I should have known this already. Of course, I never had sex with them with a condom.

'' A kiss for your thought. Lorenzo murmurs, making my skin crawl.

“I'm just thinking how lucky I am to have the five of you in my life.

He smiles and kisses my forehead tenderly.

“We are also lucky to have you in our lives.

I smile and sigh, looking out the window and seeing that we've arrived. Soon Dylan parks the car and the three of us get out, Christopher's car approaches and he, Tom and Alex get out. We go inside the house together and soon Dona Rosa comes to me.

“Girl, are you okay?” What did the doctor say? '' Question, all worried and smile.

“I'm fine, Rose, I passed out from something. I say and she looks at me suspiciously.

“And what is that something?” “She's curious.

“You will soon find out.

She slaps me on the arm and I laugh.

“We want to know why you passed out. Christopher says and I roll my eyes. “If you roll your eyes at me like that again, I will punish you.

I keep smiling.

“You can't punish me with what I have here.

Everyone widens their eyes.

“For God's sake, don't tell me you have cancer? Tom asks, in a thin voice.

'' What? Of course not, Tom.

He sighs in relief.

I close my eyes, taking a deep breath and looking at everyone.

'' I'm Pregnant. '' I say at once and none of them show a reaction, they seem to be in a trance. “Hey, boys! I snap my fingers, getting their attention, and then they blink.

"Did you say you're pregnant?" Lorenzo asks.

'' I'm Pregnant. '' I do.

"Fucking hell!" Let's be fucking parents! He yells and comes at me, kissing me all over. '' I'm going to be a father, damn it, I'm going to be the father of the child of the woman I love most in this life, damn it! He hugs me and I smile.

Soon I feel arms wrapping around me and I realize that the others have joined our embrace, my eyes water and tears flow.

“I'm so happy… I thought you wouldn't like it,” I say, crying into Enzo's shoulder.

'' My love, we all always dreamed of having children with you, we are very happy with this fucking news, I'm going to be a fucking father. '' Alex says, all happy. “Thanks for this, Elisa, you're giving us the best gift in the world.

“Thanks for that. “I give each one a peck.

They separate our embrace and soon Dona Rosa hugs me.

“I'm happy for you, girl, and I want a lot of kids running around the mansion.

I laugh with her euphoria.

“I want it too, Rose. '' I say, sighing. “But there's one more thing to tell you. ’ They stop talking and stare at me. '' The doctor said that my pregnancy is at risk.

They widen their eyes, it would be funny if it wasn't a serious matter.

“R''r''risk?” I see Tom stutter for the first time.

“Calm down, he said if I follow the list right, I'll be fine.

They sigh in relief.

'' What's the list? Dylan crosses his arms.

'' I can't stress or be too nervous, it could harm the baby, I have to eat healthy things and I can't go up and down the stairs when I'm five months old.

'' We have to go to an island so, you get stressed very easily, especially when a woman gets close to us. '' Christopher speaks and I look at him seriously.

'' You can't take me to a desert island because of my jealousy, you also annoy me a lot.

'' We can take her, yes, if it's good for the baby, we don't want to lose her at all. “Lorenzo has a weak voice. '' Please, we just want to protect you and we are at risk of life too, we don't want to involve you in this, especially our son.

“I don't want this, Enzo.

He sighs.

“Honey, do you remember Sebastian? “It makes my heart miss a beat. '' He has a son and that son of a bitch wants our mafia, he wants everything, he's also after revenge for killing his father. He was the one who ordered Larissa to do that with Enzo, we don't want to get you involved in that. Dylan explains.

'' We asked our friends for help, they are mobsters too and they are leaders of the Russian mafia, they will help us and we don't want you here when this war starts. We want you somewhere safe and quiet, please.

My tears roll down easily, I even sob.

“I don't want to lose any of you. Please, I don't want to.

Christopher hugs me tightly and I bury my face in his neck.

“We won't leave you, my love. Never. We have lived this way since our childhood, we were trained for this and we promise to come back and take care of you and our son. So, I ask you to calm down, remember what the doctor said.

'' T''okay… Do you promise to come back to me alive?

They smile.

'' Of course, in five days we'll send you and Dona Rosa to a safe place, so don't try and don't get too nervous, think about our son. Christopher says, placing his hand on my stomach.

“Okay, I promise. “They smile at me.

“Very well, now go eat and rest.

'' Right.

I will do this for my children.
