Meet us at the compound in ten to lay out the plan" the guard said making Alexander scowl."Fucking hell. Fine" with that he hung up keeping the phone back.He was not at all happy to be woken up from such a blissful sleep at 3 in the morning.

"Oh my god what happened!" she exclaimed out rushing to his side.He was on the bed, shirtless, with a white bandage wrapped around his abdomen and a little blood peaking out from the left side.He knew she was going to freak out as much as he didn't want her to, it was inevitable even though he had gone through a lot worse.She was by his side inspecting him in no time as her eyes glassed over with tears at the sight of him hurt."Hey, it's okay it's okay. I am alright no need to freak out" He said sitting up a little straighter with effort as he took a hold of her hand to calm her down as best as he could."No you're not t..there is b..bandages b..blood... how?" she asked looking him up and down for more injuries but found none to her relief."Sit baby" he said pulling her close and making her sit at his side which she did with care as to not aggravate his injury."Shouldn't you be at the hospital or something?" she asked worrying o
Safeguarding Isla Chapter 21: In Which It Was So Close
A week and a half passed to Alexander's injury, his stitches, even though healed were still a little sore but it was nothing he couldn't handle.During that whole time his little girlfriend had acted like a mother hen, making him food, feeding it to him and once she even went as far as offering to take him to the bathroom to which he declined with great emphasis. It was quite adoring for him that she was caring for him like that but only to a point and that line was drawn on when she made that offer. He was quite capable of doing stuff on his own it was only that he found it really endearing and she insisted was he letting her do stuff for him.What annoyed the hell out of him because of that injury was the fact that he wasn't able to keep an eye on Isla the whole day and they only got to be together during the night.However, today was going to be his first day back to duty since he got injured and maybe it was the anticipation of it that had him up early at 6

Alexander jabbed a punch to the right of the rookie recruit on the security team making the boy who was no older than 19 wince at the sudden pain and impact of the punch thrown at him."You never ever leave either of your sides unprotected like that boy, a skilled opponent would see that and strike, very well catching you off guard and knocking the earth out from below your feet. You need to remember that defense comes before the offense, you have to be able to defend your skin and stay alive in order to make your attack, come on, arms up again" Alexander ordered and the boy had his arms up again with determination on his black and blue face from the wind like unsuspecting blows that he had received from Alexander during the training.Alexander had been training the young rookie recruits that arrived at the wood Gambino compound just a few days before and the men who were watching them train in the rink, most definitely felt bad for those boys at the receiving en

However, when she put her other foot down along with all her weight on that branch it snapped.Before Isla could even reach to grab the branch above her to keep herself from falling, she tumbled down along with the branch and ended up on the ground

"Oh thank god you came back I thought you were tired and left for the night" Isla breathed out a sigh of relief as she saw Alexander swinging a leg inside her room from the window.She felt too jittery to fall asleep and there was no way sleep would come easy to her without him especially not this Nigel and especially not when she had gotten so used to sleeping on top of him, all warm and snuggly."You really think I would leave you all alone, tonight of all nights? I would die worrying about your baby. You've already given me several heart attacks today to at least last a lifetime I am not letting you out of my sight if I can help it" Alexander said talking a seat beside her on the bed.She blushed at his comment as he lovingly and really stroked her cheek with the pad of his thumb, still flushed from the crying."We both seem to get injured lately, one way or another her huh?" she made a slight joke to let lighten the mood but her getting hurt was
