"Rios you're in charge until I'm back. Luna Junior is asleep in his bedroom. He'll be up at 8 and will ask for his dinosaur nuggets which are in the freezer okay?"

"Yes Leo I'm a mother too. Don't worry, I know how to handle toddlers," Luna rubs her tired eyes as she yawns.

Suddenly, I feel a sharp pain strike my lower waist which causes me to screech. Immediately, Leo is beside me helping me stand firmly. I take in a deep breathe then exhale trying my best to soothe myself through these contractions.

"Are you okay babe?," Leo worriedly says as he intently examines me. "Yes, it's just part of labor right?," I slightly chuckle trying to make a joke during a tense moment, but another sharp pain strikes. This time striking me on my lower back making me wince.

And just like that, I feel a warm pile of liquid slide down my legs splashing down to the ground. "My water just broke," I gasp. Leo and I's eyes widen along with everyone else as we see the puddle of the clear liquid sitting on the floor.

"Shit, we must leave now," Leo murmurs as he grabs my arm helping me exit the house. Everyone wishes us luck as we leave to the hospital.

The entire car ride has been a torture as the contractions start to become closer in minutes. I've been practicing my breathing to help myself through the contractions, but I swear that doesn't do anything for me. So here I am crying like a big baby from the sharp pains I'm currently feeling.

"I'm so sorry Madison that I can't do anything to help you with this. Don't worry everything will be fine, I promise baby," Leo soothingly says as his hand gives my mine a little squeeze.

We finally arrive at the entrance of the hospital where a bunch of nurses are waiting for me with a wheelchair. Leo rushes to my side opening the door, so I can slowly step out. Nurses along with Leo surround me helping me take a seat on the wheelchair as we are now rushing inside the premises.

"Her water broke about 30 minutes ago," Leo informs the nurse that is registering me into my delivery room Leo picked out a few months back.

The pains become sharper which causes my screeches to become louder and longer. My body is hot from the pain causing droplets of sweat to form along my forehead.

"Doctor Veranice is on her way," the kind blonde nurse says as she and Leo helps me get out of my clothes and into my hospital gown. As I'm dressed in my gown. Leo helps me put my cap on making sure all of my hair is inside of it. I'm now laid down in the hospital bed as nurses start wiring me up and connecting me to machines getting everything set up for the big event.

"You're doing good baby," Leo murmurs as he stands besides me gently rubbing my head with his hand. This is his way of calming me down which is helping. With his touch and just having him here next to me makes me feel safe as if nothing bad can happen to me.

"Will you be getting epidural Mrs. Castillo?," the nurse asks as she holds her clipboard.

This is something Leo and I talked about for quite some time now and it was decided that I'm going to have a natural birth just like Savannah did for hers and Montoya's baby, Brielle. After doing some research about the the possible effects of the drug. I'm truly not wanting to drug my child in anyway. However, the pain is excruciating that I'm starting to second guess my decision.

How many centimeters is she?," Leo asks as he rubs his chin thinkably.

"5"

As soon as I hear this. My heart literally drops down to my stomach. After all this time of the excruciating contractions. I would think I'd be close to being 8 centimeters. I can only overthink of how much more pain I can take between now and 10 centimeters.

With little Leo, I didn't get to experience none of this. So this is practically my first time going into labor and experiencing such pain I've never been exposed to before. Child labor isn't no joke. Luna and Savannah weren't kidding.

"I'll wait it out to see if I can handle it," I say causing Leo to blankly look at me. The nurse nods as she heads out of the room to speak to the other nurses.

"Madison, if you can't it's okay," Leo says showing such understanding and support. "I can do this," I breathe as another sharp pain strikes me causing me to squeeze my eyes shut as the pain slowly goes away on its own, "I hope," I breathe again.

"8 centimeters," doctor Veranice utters to everyone in the delivery room.

"She wants the epidural," Leo firmly says to the doctor.

I have no idea how much hours have passed by, but all I can say is that it's been painful. The contractions are much stronger than they were before. My entire body feels as if my insides are being stabbed to death at the same time threateningly wanting to exit my body. At this point I'm a crying mess again probably letting the whole world know by now that I'm in labor from my screams.

I can tell I have Leo completed nervous that he's been yelling at the nurses including the doctor for the past hours. He hates to see me in such pain and what kills him more is not being able to do anything about it. I try my best to keep my screams low and not cry as much, so I won't stress him out so much than he already is, but I can't. My emotions are in full control of me right now.

"It's a bit too late for that Mr. Castillo. We need these contractions, so the cervix is fully dilated to get this baby out," doctor Veranice explains as she sits at the end of the bed in front of my legs.

Knowing Leo's temper and nerves about to interact with one another and erupt any second now. I intervene, "It's okay doctor. This was my decision after all. I think I can do this for two more centimeters," I murmur lowly hardly being able to speak loud due to the pain I've been feeling this entire time.

"Madison-"

"It's okay Leo. I can do this just please hold my hand," I cut him off. Immediately, he's my by side again holding my hand into his. Every now and then I use his hand as my little pain resistance ball. As soon as contractions hit. I squeeze his hand to help me get through this sharp pain. Leo says it doesn't hurt, but seeing how red his hand turns every time I squeeze, I'm sure it does. Leo being Leo is just being the macho man he loves being especially at a time like this where I need him the most.

"It's time to push," doctor Veranice announces as everyone is on stand by ready to bring this baby into the world.

At this point, I'm a screaming mess as I have my legs spread open holding in my breathe as I push every here and then following my doctor's orders. Leo is beside me holding my hand while also supporting my back as I push. Leo didn't want to see what's going on down there since he says he'll only get traumatized and probably be haunted by it for a long time. So he's by me watching this painful, but exciting moment from the other end.

"I can see the head. Boy or girl? We shall see Castillo family," doctor Veranice says with excitement.

Leo and I decided to keep the gender of our second child unknown until birth. We wanted something different this time around. It's been so hard for me to keep this curiosity from attacking me every time. I just wanted to call my doctor to know the sex of my baby. However, Luna and Savannah always talked me out of it letting the curiosity and excitement all build up for the day I give birth which is finally here.

Leo is completed convinced that we're having another boy due to being the same size and shape I was this second time in pregnancy as I was with little Leo. I have no idea if I agree or disagree with him. This second time around it has been more nauseousness and sleepiness than my first pregnancy that went pretty easy besides the stressful life I was going through during the time of course.

"Give me 3 more pushes," doctor Veranice says. I do as she instructed putting my entire strength that I possibly have left into the pushes.

"The head is out."

"Push babe," Leo murmurs as he supports my back with his hand as I push one last time. "Open your eyes. Watch your baby come out," doctor Veranice hastily says as she helps my baby exit out of me. As soon as my eyes open, I meet my baby whom's eyes are still closed.

Strong emotions hit me out of pure adoration and utterly joy of seeing my baby for the very first time after carrying Leo and I's creation. As soon as I start crying from joy of seeing my child. Wailings echoes throughout the entire room as doctor Veranice holds my baby up in the air as another nurse holds the umbilical cord within her hand.

"It's a girl," she announces in joy as the other nurses stand by applauding and congratulating Leo and I.

I turn to look at Leo whom is standing with the most stunned expression that's plastered onto his face right now. His eyes are completely glued on our daughter whom is crying. One of the nurses hands him the scissors, so he can cut the umbilical cord. Leo grabs the scissors stepping forward towards our baby. Doctor Veranice instructs Leo on where to cut which Leo perfectly does.

As soon as this is done. Our daughter is taken to the back of the room to get examined, measured, and cleaned. Leo's eyes stay glued onto everyone whom is around his daughter making sure no one hurts nor mishandles her in anyway.

"Blink Leo," I murmur causing him to break his gaze upon our daughter now averting his attention onto me. He's quick to my side asking how I'm feeling and placing a kiss onto my forehead. Doctor Veranice is working on me still, so I can't move much until she clears me which didn't take long.

Within a minute or so, my wailing baby girl is within my arms. "Hey baby, it's mommy," I murmur placing my lips on her little forehead. I cradle her trying my best to calm her down. Leo warily watches us both with love swirling within his chocolate brown eyes. 

Her soft skin resembles mine. As well as her pinkish cheeks that remind me of how mine get when exercising or when I feel embarrassed.  Her hair is dark like her fathers. She has my same nose and lips. In matter of fact, I'm completely staring at my little mini me. She also resembles her father a lot too.

She's a prefect mixture of us both honestly.

However, when she opens her eyes. Leo completed won in eye color. She has the most beautiful chocolate brown eyes just like her father. The exact same ones as his. Leo reaches out for her which I let him take her for him to have his time with her as well. They both stare at one another in silence almost admiring one another. And then the most magical thing happens that has Leo completed astonished.

"She smiled at me," Leo surprisingly says as he smiles in the biggest way possible. "Daddy's little girl already," I smile loving the beautiful sight in front of me.

"Mr. and Mrs. Castillo, what would you like to name your daughter?," doctor Veranice says as she grabs her clipboard.

Leo looks at me waiting for me to respond. However, I truly have no clue on what name I would like for my daughter. "Name her," I say to him with a smile curious to see what he comes up with.

Leo spent a lot of time gathering potential boy names since he was so convinced we were having another boy which clearly was the exact opposite. So I find this moment very interesting as I intently watch him think while looking down at our baby.

Leo takes a moment as he gazes at his daughter. I can see her little arms swinging around as she stares at her father in such wonder which I find completely adorable. It's as if these two are studying one another.

Already I can't tell where she inherited that from.

I break away from my thoughts as my eyes lock with those chocolate brown eyes I adore so much till this day. The name he says has me in such fondness impressed by the name he selected for our baby girl. I nod my head in agreement as he repeats the name again this time to doctor Veranice whom gets her pen ready to permanently note it onto the clipboard.

Prologue

Throwing on my leather jacket. I head out the door already not looking forward to the meeting my father arranged so last minute. As usual I'm a couple of minutes late. I can already imagine my father fuming losing his shit every minute that passes.

Not having a clue on how many red lights I passed without stopping. I finally arrive at my family home. Entering the gates of the estate a few red eagles stand around monitoring the premises as they wave at me.

"Heads up little boss. El jefe is furious," Cruz says as he teases knowing I'm the cause of my father's tantrum for the day.

"When isn't he?," I murmur. The both of us lightly chuckle extending our hands out to shake as I make my way towards the front to enter my home where I grew up in.

Making my way down the corridor I start to hear murmuring as I get close to my father's office. I take in a deep breathe exhaling it out as I open the door to enter the room.

If only I knew in this exact moment that the way I came in today wasn't going to be the same way I was going to come out. I would of never shown up to this meeting.

"Well look who finally decided to fucking show up?," my father grumbles as his chocolate brown eyes angrily glare at me as I make my way in to take my seat at the table.

"You're the one that called for a damn last minute meeting this early," I roll my eyes crossing my arms across my chest.

"This is normal active men time. If you weren't so irresponsible partying it up all last night then waking up this early in the morning wouldn't be such a problem now would it?," father sternly says.

"I didn't come here to get lectured about my festivities. Get to the point," I bluntly respond not wanting to hear his complain about how I live my life. This hangover is really taking a toll on me right now.

"Get to the point? Alright, that's exactly what I'll do son," my father blandly says as he takes a seat crossing his arms against his chest. Everyone is silent waiting for him to start explaining what this whole meeting is about.

"So as you all may already know. It's important to secure our alliance with the Romanovs for the arms."

"Okay, well secure it," I yawn wanting this meeting over with already.

"Already did," my father firmly responds his focus on me entirely.

"Great, that means the meeting is over," I sigh about to get up to stand on my feet. However, what my father announces next has me frozen to the spot as I lose all feeling to my bodily functions. My ass meeting the chair once again harshly by the unexpected news.

"You're arranged to marry their daughter."

"No!"

"The deal is sealed. Your wedding will be in a month."

"What?! A fucking month? I didn't sign up for this bullshit. I refuse," I scold slamming my fist against the table.

"You have no choice, but to obey son. As heir to the throne this is your sacrifice for our mafia," my father blankly says with nothing but seriousness in his tone and expression. I go to protest some more. However, he cuts me off  ending the meeting with no intention of hearing my opinion.

"Leo Castillo Jr will unite alliances for the first time in history between the Romanov and Castillo mafias," my father firmly announces as he slams the gavel onto the sound block dismissing everyone.

As soon as that gravel hit the sound block that was the very moment my life took an entire different course. A course, I wasn't prepared for at all.
