"It's a bad dream."

"How bad is it? Tell me?"

"Mom got shot—by a woman wearing a Dior shoes."

Gabriel caress her hair. It wasn't just a dream but it was her memories in a dream.

"What else, baby?"

"I jump out through the window." She murmur and snuggle on him. "That's warm."

"Sabrina, you have to be strong for me."

"What?" She asked. He hold her arms and push her a little so he could face her. He caress her hair.

"Your past was very traumatic. I want you to be ready for the things that you are going to remember, okay?" He said like he was talking to a child. Sabrina nods. "I am here for you no matter what." He kiss her forehead. "You are the strongest woman I know."

"I won't bug you about my past but—" her eyes burns down at him with l.u.s.t and pa.s.sion. She pull up his t-s.h.i.+rt and help him remove it. "I feel h.o.r.n.y. I want to see your body." She said panting a little.

"Just see my body?" He grins and corner her.

"Touch."

"Touch it? Just touch it?"

"Feel it—ugh! Just strip it all off…" She said irritated. He knows that it was probably because of the hormones. Gabriel delayed the stripping just to tease her. She pouted with creased brows and throw tantrums. "Gabby!"

"Okay…" he help her remove her clothes first and start kissing her. She hold onto him tightly with moan and responded to him.

Soon, they were making love for over two hours. Gabriel has a lot of stamina and his wife was wild and wasn't contented. The doctor told him that pregnant women can be that aggressive in s.e.x and would ask for more. He was careful not to hurt the baby and he research about it all. Sabrina finally go back to sleep as he glance at the clock.

Tony hold onto the rail as he waited outside the operation room. His world is twirling and he collapsed on the floor. Enzo, Whiskey and Brandy rescued him. They see the changes in him. He has lost weight and has dark circles under his eyes. He isn't sleeping regularly and doesn't eat much at all for the past few days just to make a cure for Veronica.

Tony woke up in the bed with a dextrose connected to him. Samantha sigh.

"If you keep doing this Veronica will surely get mad at you." Samantha told.

"How long have I been sleeping?"

"For twenty four hours now." He sat up.

"Careful! Go back to bed!" Samantha scowl at him. Tony lay back. "Veronica is under surveillance and hasn't woken up yet. She will get better."

"I want to see her." Samantha pinch the spot between her brows.

"Dude, d.a.m.n just eat first and regain your strength you are giving Samantha a big d.a.m.n head ache!" Albert scowl at him as he put the food on the table tray. He then pull Samantha and kiss her forehead. "Eat because you aren't leaving this room until you are well."

Tony couldn't argue with them. Samantha is tired. d.a.m.n it. Everyone is tired but he will never get tired of saving Veronica. All of the struggles are worth it.

Tony regain his strength and went to see Veronica in the middle of the room with the apparatus around her and the cure connected to the dextrose. She doesn't look pale any more or worse like a dying person. The blush on her face is coming back.
