Angelo’s face turned pale. He ran after her, full of worry and picked her up like a princess. Then he turned around and kicked me hard in the chest.
“Drag her out! Make her kneel for three hours!”
He carried Maria into the bedroom.
A little while later, I heard the sounds of the two of them making love. The bodyguard finally let go of me. Unfortunately, I quickly lost all the strength in my legs. Immediately, I collapsed to the floor and fainted.
When I woke up again, I was already lying on a hospital bed.
The doctor looked at me with pity in his eyes and spoke gently, “Ma’am, your body is too weak and your injuries are too serious. We’re really sorry, but we unfortunately couldn’t save the baby.”
I slowly placed my hand over my now flat stomach, but I actually didn’t feel any sadness. I stayed in the hospital for one more day. During that time, I contacted the leader of the Romani community and asked him to meet me at the mountain gate.
Ever since we had been threatened seven years ago, the entrance to the Romani community had become very well hidden. Only people from the community knew where it was.
