Infatuation Of Darkness

"Ah, yes," Antonio nodded. "I will have one found and discuss her condition with them." Antonio got up and was ready to leave. He had to make sure of the fact that he found the psychiatrist today itself.

He had to make sure that the demand for the boss came first. The Donna was being treated by the best doctors and was the top priority for them, where he was to make sure of the Don.

Ans taking care of that man's needs and demands were not easy.

"One more thing," Angelo stopped him. "We are waking she up tomorrow." He smiled. But of course, it was not a normal one. It was the smile was of a killer. Something that said, 'I know you would do it. You have to.' He was well aware of the fact that he could not be denied and he took advantage of it.

The initial feeling of shock was no longer the feeling that Antonio felt after hearing the words. The boss wanted to wake a traumatized and barely functioning patient without waiting for the doctor's approval. This seemed like a disaster. Fuck that, it was a disaster. She was going to be a disaster. They had to plan it all out. The journey of her recovery. 

Alexis was going to go into a shock as soon as she would wake up. Nevermind the drugged up system she had. It was barely functioning and managing in its own. The blow of what had happened would intensify as she would see herself in a new light, the one of self-pity. Where all she could think about was why her? 

She was going to see herself being hooked to various machines which were keeping her alive. Then she was going to remember everything that had happened.

Tough life.

Now the question was whose life did Antonio value. His career made it clear that the patient; the boss's wife was his priority but to have a patient ever again, he needed to live as well. And with this dilemma he had to decide what to do, care for the orders and do as told with which came neglecting the patient's needs or defy the boss and get himself killed.

"Um.." he nervously began to talk, "I will tell the doctors that we need to focus on what her body wants first." He tried to explain. 

Angelo raised his head with a slight tilt and that movement alone had Antonio pissing his pants. "Talk to me Antonio," Angelo said with a sigh, "tell me what you are talking about." He knew something that Angelo did not and it pissed him off. 

The doctor sighed in somewhat a relief. Antonio had expected anything but that. At least now he could explain where he was coming from which was going to be easy for him to hear. Only a doctor knew what he was talking about. 

"What I am saying is," he started to talk but kept in his mind about who he was talking to. "She is going to have major setbacks in her day to day life because of the trauma. For which we need to make sure that there is a psychiatrist which her but before that, we need to make sure that her body, at least, is functioning well. And that recovery would take time.."

Angelo was listening to him. To some extent, he had heard the man but after that, he had tuned him out. When Angelo had started his plan for Alexis in motion, he had considered that it would have effects in the long-term but what he had not considered were the immediate effects on her mental health and her physical being would take so long to recover.

She was traumatized, she had to be. She had suffered a lot and she had endured a few broken bones which of course, Thomas was punished for. But what after could he do about it? It was a recovery that she was supposed to make on her own, of course, he would give her the best doctors and psychiatrists in the world but after waking up. She had to wake up for it and start on the journey of recovery before people felt that she was missing.

Angelo thought of what the psychiatrists could do for him but unfortunately, no psychiatrist would help him in his plan. That meant he would have to control the psychiatrist and what she was treating Alexis with. Her methods could not coincide with his and drain them down.

".. because of which, we wanted to be sure that when she would wake up the body will be partially healed from the injury she had experienced and that.."

"Antonio," Angelo clicked his tongue in annoyance. "I don't want the detailed version. Tell me when can I wake her up." He wanted to talk to her. Make her think that she had been found and was safe with him. Under his protection and with him, she would avenge her killers.

"Preferably a week after," Antonio answered, injuries would be almost healed and we can find a good and reliable psychiatrist by then." He offered. He was a doctor himself but he did want to consult the other doctors over it. Sadly, it was not possible given he had to answer him now without making him wait.

"A week," Angela repeated looking thoughtful. A week was too long as she had to get back on her feet before that and that too would take time.

He just could not stand by any longer.

"And if I wake her up now would she die?" He asked with any shame and fear. He just cared about talking with her. Where she would talk back and add something to the conversation. Where he could see those deep blue eyes of hers. Where her lips would be

Antonio blinked a bit. The question was highly twisted to be asked. "No, she won't.." he answered with a slight hesitation wondering if he was right about the direction where this was going to go to. 

Angelo clapped his hands. "Then it's done. Find a psychiatrist and make sure that everything else that requires for her to be woken up is ready."

Antonio did not move from where he was standing as Angelo had stopped him by making a demand of waiting for Alexis up. He continued to stand there with his mouth open. How was he supposed to prepare everything till tomorrow when the boss for having permitted to wake his wife?

But what could a punny man like him do?

"Yes, boss." He nodded meekly and left. He knew that with Angelo's last words, he had been dismissed as well.

As the door closed, Angelo was back to staring at his wife. Nevertheless, Alexis still looked beautiful even if was mom them theeee ents.

Angelo stood up from the sofa and moved to the stool next to his wife's bed to sit on. How beautiful she was. All he had to do now was to push her into the right direction where she would willing want him to protect her.

Where she would surrender to his instincts of protecting her. 

Giving the fuel to his obsession for her. 

Taking her hand in his, he kissed it.

'My love I don't know if I should apologize to you or have you thank me. I did it for us so that you understand what dangers are out there and what I do to protect you. I have built walls around us was that would never be penetrated by our enemies but for them to protect you you have to make sure that you stay within them.' 

Kissing her hand again he continued, "it's going to be a tough life but for both of us. But living it together it would be easy because we both with love each other so much that none of these problems will ever bother us. These will be so little in front of our love, our castle of dreams that we won't ever be bothered by them."

'I love you my dear wife and I will always make sure that we are together. We will be together forever and I will never let anyone come in between us.' Leaving her hand he caressed her face, 'I am just making sure that so will you, that you can love me as much as I love you and put in as much as efforts as I do.'

'I am fine if you get obsessed with me just as I am with you. But if you ever think of leaving me, Alexis I would shatter the castle of dreams that we built together because you are my biggest dream and if that if taken away from me, then there is nothing left."

'It would be us just us forever and no one would ever come between us and I will always make sure that no one comes in between us..' He promised.
