Page 128 of Secret Baby for the Mafia Prince

The man he nodded at walks closer to us.

“I’ll go with her.”

“No, you’re not!”

Mateo’s attention is fixed on his brother. He is gripping his jaw.

“I’m not letting you have her,” I say through gritted teeth.

He grabs my arm and tries to take Sophie away from me.

“Don’t you fucking touch her!”

His grip on my arm tightens as he signals to the other man to take Sophie from me.

“Mateo!” I yell.

I’m holding Sophie tightly against me. They aren’t taking her away from me without a fight.

“What the fuck do you want, Gianna?” he grunts, pissed, as he turns to look at me.

Pietro’s head falls down, blood seeping out of his mouth to the ground. I can hear his pants.

“This is too much for Sophie. Please let us out of here.”

He pauses for a moment. “Take the baby, Rico. You stay here, Princess.”

“No… no, Mateo no.”

“Grab her,” Rico instructs the other guard.

“Stay away from me. Stay away from her!” They both ignore my yells. “Mateo! Fucking stop this!”

“Give her to me,” Rico orders.

The other man drags Sophie away from my grip as Rico holds my other arm.

“Please, don’t take her away from me,” I beg.

Sophie is crying loudly as the other guard pulls her away from me. She is fighting him back for carrying her but he doesn’t budge, taking her away from the room.

“Sophie! Don’t…wait! Stop, please,” I cry.

“Shut the hell up, Princess! She’s fucking safe,” Mateo yells at me. His eyes are full of anger.

“I want to be with her. She needs me.”

“Shut your mouth or I will fucking shut it for you,” Rico warns beside me.

Pietro’s yell fills the room as I stifle my sobs. There’s a dagger in Mateo’s hand.

Oh, God.

I yell as I watch him stab his brother in the arm.

“Why were you trying to fucking open the door when I gave orders not to?”

He groans loudly, his breaths getting heavier. I feel sick.
