The Shark Mafia Boss novel Chapter 89

Raphael POV

I open my eyes and I immediately close them. The light is too bright and I can feel a shooting pain up my right arm.

What did the hell happen? Why am I so uncomfortable.

I can hear sirens and people talking.

“Mr Lockwood” - I hear someone whisper but I ignore them, I am tired. I allow the darkness to take me again.

I open my eyes and I try to move but I can’t. I start looking around and I see buttons all around me. Someone looking down at me. What the fuck?

“Welcome back Mr Lockwood” - I hear and I turn my head to see a young guy looking down at me.

“What happened? Where am I? Olivia, where’s Olivia?” - I start to get agitated trying to stand up.

“Mr Lockwood please calm down”

“Where’s Olivia?” - I say trying to stand up again but I can’t. I feel my body restricted and that’s when I realise I’m in an ambulance and I am tied down to the stretcher.

“Sir, please calm down”

“Where is she?” - I ask again pleading for them to answer me.

I keep moving and then I start to feel my eyes got heavy again.

“I’m sorry sir” - the young guy said and my eyes close. I am taken by darkness again.

I wake up and as I open my eyes the bright light hurts then so I close them again immediately. My head is pounding and my arm is aching. Slowly I open my eyes to realise I am in the hospital. For fuck sake, what happened now?

I look around and I find my mother sitting on a chair. She’s asleep and I smile looking at her.

“Mum” - I say

She doesn’t move.

“Mum” - I repeat a little louder and she opens her beautiful eyes looking at me.

“Oh thank God Raphael, you scared the shit out of me” - she says.

“What happened?”

“I will get the doctor and we will answer your questions after he examined you” - she says turning on her heels to walk out of the bedroom.

“Mum, where is she?” - I ask her

Mum stops still with her back turned to me. I can see she took a deep breath as if getting the courage to turn to face me.

“She is here, she is next door” - she says turning to look at me. I can see her sad eyes.

“How is she?” - I ask afraid of what she might say. Afraid for my daughter’s life.

“She is asleep” - mum says - “I don’t know a lot more because I am not family” - she whispers afraid of my reaction.

I close my eyes and I can feel tears burning them.

Mum leaves the bedroom and not long after the doctor walks in with nurses and god knows who else. He examines me but I don’t pay attention to what he is saying. I can’t stop thinking about Olivia.
