Chapter 5: Hate Part 2
A few more minutes passed and the first-aid doctors burst in and gave her first aid, eyeing her suspiciously. They didn't allow her to go with them, because they said she wasn't family, but Anna was already used to some of the men who accompanied them on their trips, and ordered them to take her in the back of the ambulance.
At the hospital, the doctor came to tell them that she couldn't accompany Allister, and that they couldn't pass on information about the patient at the request of their son, and All's second wife. Anna felt her face turn red and looked at the members of the mafia who always accompanied them.
“Tell them I'm his real wife!” She shouted, but they remained silent. Anna realized that they wouldn't say anything, but she sat in the waiting room, refusing to leave.
Her son and his wife! Where have they been for the last seven months? She had never heard All mention them, although she knew of their existence.
One of the men approached, and leaving aside the reverence with which he always treated Anna, sat down next to her in the waiting room.
“Go away! You could have helped me, and you didn't!” She shouted angrily.
“Miss... We couldn't. All was once the most powerful and dangerous man I knew, but that was before he met you. Now, the most dangerous and powerful man is his son. We can't stand in his way. He has no mercy.”
“Coward.” She called out, but now without much vigor.
“I have a family, miss. If I went alone, I certainly wouldn't care about my life, but the boss's son would kill my family before my eyes, before killing me.”
“What do I do now?”
“Wait. We have to wait for the boss's son's orders.”
Anna stood up.
“If he would kill you cruelly just because you disobeyed an order, what will he do to me? I can't wait to find out!”
“You can't run away. You have a father, remember? You don't mind him paying for your... Disobedience? You're family property now. You've been bought.”
Anna sat down again.
“Which son?”
The man smiled sadly.
“The youngest. The eldest son is a judge, and he doesn't like getting involved with the mafia.”
“Maybe he'll protect me...”
The man, who lived so close to her that she didn't know his name, stared at her as if she had gone mad.
“He doesn't get involved.” He repeated. “He doesn't have a friendly relationship with his brother, but they share the same feelings for you.”
“They have feelings for me?”
“Hate.”
“They don't even know me!”
“They don't need to. The younger son's mother was very convincing when she talked to them about how Allister had abandoned her for a younger woman.”
Anna's eyes turned cold.
“It wasn't my fault!”
“They know, but they don't care. They love their mother and to please her, they'll do anything. I think that's the only thing they have in common apart from their looks.”
The man's radio chattered looking for someone on the wire, and he stood up and introduced himself as 'Northern Wolf on the Wire' and turned his back to Anna.
She became pensive. They would have her killed with the utmost cruelty. She couldn't try to run away, because they would take their anger out on her father. She took a deep breath and leaned back on the sofa. It was a relatively small price to pay for having been happy for seven months. She only regretted not having a child. She wanted and planned to pierce All's condoms with needles, so that it would happen after they were married, because she believed that surprising him with a pregnancy would make him happy, and give him back a little of everything he had given her.
