Author’s POV
“Dom put her down…”
Anamika scolded when she saw him carrying her in bridal style.
“Who the hell told you to carry a pregnant woman like this…”
Dom placed her down on the couch.
“Her water broke and It’s too early…”
“Relax!”
She looked at Grace.
“Grace, Honey… Is it hurting?”
“Little!”
Grace breathed out.
“Then we have time… Call ambulance!”
She ordered.
Bella and Alex also came out. Bella was quick to attend Grace.
“Atleast wear some clothes.”
Alex whispered to Dom, who was just wearing sweatpants. Grace was wearing long loose gown which was covering her.
“And why your pants are wet…”
“Shut up… Give me your shirt.”
Dom pulled his shirt up.
“The fuck you are doing…”
Alex cursed when Dom wore his shirt.
“Ma’am Ambulance is here”
Guard informed.
“Wear some clothes…”
Dom mocked Alex and walked out when they took Grace towards the ambulance.
“Bastard!”
Alex cursed.
“Alex what are you doing wear some clothes, we have to go!”
Bella looked at him in disbelief.
Poor Alex looked at her like he was the one to come there shirtless, when in reality Dom stole his shirt.
“Maa… It’s hurting, I can’t…”
Grace gasped for the air.
Anamika and Dom were with her in the ambulance and the driver was shaking after looking at black cars around him. He was surrounded by the guards.
“Why it’s hurting this much, is something wrong?”
Dom panicked.
“Dom keep quiet or I’ll kick you out of the ambulance.”
Anamika glared at him as he was continuously asking the same question and it was scaring Grace.
Doctors were quick to attend her when they reached hospital.
“Dom!”
Grace grabbed his hand when pain became unbearable.
“Shh… It’s okay… It will be over soon…”
He caressed her hair.
“Can you hurry up”
He yelled at Doctors.
Doctors looked at him shocked, how can they control natural birth of the child.
“Call his mother…”
The lady Doctor said who was attending Grace from the beginning.
“Dom, what are you doing? Threatening the doctors…”
Anamika looked at him in disbelief.
“Let them do their work…”
Grace smiled in her pain.
“Ma’am can you please stay here too.”
The young doctor requested and she nodded.
Dom looked at Grace concerned but couldn’t say anything to anyone because his mother was keeping eyes on him.
Grace squeezed his hand tightly and screamed. Her screams got mixed with little cry.
Dom looked at the baby who was covered in blood.
“Another one is still inside…”
The lady doctor said.
“Come on Grace… Push!”
Grace was exhausted.
“Another one?”
Dom looked at her confused.
“What another one?”
“You are having twins mister…”
She replied.
Dom looked at Grace and his mother. Anamika smiled at him.
“Surprised?”
“Fuck! And no one told me about it?”
He looked at Grace as she pushed out another baby and passed out.
“Grace?”
He patted her cheek as that Bad dreams came back crashing on him.
“Maa… What happened to her?”
His heart hammered with fear.
“She is fine… Come, let them do their work.”
Anamika patted his back.
Dom was restlessly sitting in private ward, Grace was still not there.
“Chief!”
Nurses came back with both babies and Dom looked at them with smile.
“Both babies are healthy…”
“And Grace?”
He was quick to ask.
“She will be here too!”
She replied and he sighed in relief.
“Do you want to hold them?”
She asked and he nodded.
She handed him one child and instructed him how to hold and then handed another.
Dom’s eyes watered when he looked at his babies. They were adorable.
They bring back Grace and she smiled when she saw Dom with their babies.
“Congratulations!”
Dom looked at her.
“Twins?”
He chuckled happily.
“Twins!”
Grace wiped her happy tears.
“I hope you liked the surprise… It’s wasn’t easy to hide it from you…”
“Thank you!”
He kissed her forehead pouring all his love into it.
“They are so cute!”
Bella exclaimed when she entered the ward.
“I have names!”
“No way!”
Dom said quickly.
Bella pouted and looked at Grace.
“I want to name them”
She looked at her with puppy face.
“Let’s hear her names…”
Grace said.
“Salvatore for a Boy and Valentina for a girl…”
Bella said exited.
“Wow! These are actually Great names…”
Grace said happily and looked at Dom.
“Whatever!”
He doesn’t want to agree that he liked the names.
“Massimo you want to hold them?”
Anamika asked when She hold the baby girl.
“Pass… Will hold them after one year… Don’t want to break bone or two..”
He looked at fragile babies, too fragile for his rough hands.
“Okay then, we’ll let them rest…”
They placed babies back in the crib and Dom hugged Grace.
“No more babies!”
He caressed her head and kissed her cheek.
“I can’t see you in pain…”
She smiled.
“It was worth it”
She placed her head in his neck.
“You changed your pants…”
She laughed.
“Yeah! Because people were looking at me like have peed in my pants…”
He rolled his eyes and she laughed.
“Are you okay, Grace?”
He gently rubbed her arm.
“Don’t worry Dom… I’ll be fine…”
She mumbled while playing with his collar.
“What is it?”
Dom asked when she looked at him like she wants to ask something.
“I want to talk to…. Vlad…”
She looked hesitant.
Dom looked at her for a second and shook his head, he was about to get up but she grabbed his arm.
“Why become enemies when we can be family?”
She asked.
“He will be so happy to see his niece and nephew…”
“You know why?”
Dom replied.
“And i don’t trust him with my babies… You know what he did to Bella and Alexandra…”
“Vlad didn’t hurt them…”
Grace kept her hold on his arm.
“Bella told me that his men set the fire but they were the one who tamed it too… We don’t know why but Vlad changed his mind, he didn’t hurt Bella and her daughter.”
“Because he knew that he will be dead after that… That’s why he changed his mind.”
Dom said hatefully.
“Whatever the reason was… He didn’t start it. He hates you because he thinks you abused me and that’s why he kept me away from you and you hate him just because he is Russian…”
Grace tried to convince him.
“You know he chose me over his pride… Please Dom!”
“Do whatever you want”
He mumbled and turned towards the babies.
