Ranger POV

Trying to work through my jealousy and doubt out on the punching bag doesn't seem to work. I just keep thinking about so many 'what if's' it seems unreal that there is this incredible woman out there who makes my body beg for her but my mind too. But that this quick connection that I have found with her has been interrupted by one of my own men. After taking this aggression out for an hour I decide the only way I am going to put my mind at ease, and hopefully get back on track of knowing all about my Babe is to talk to both of them. She did say that she would answer my questions.

After a quick clean up I went back to the 5th floor, I went to Tank to get an update from his research.

"Report" I barked out as I step into his office.

"Nothing Ranger, I couldn't find anything linking those two together. When I did the preliminary search and couldn't find anything I called down to Miami and had Silvio do an in-depth search. He couldn't find anything either. They obviously know each other, but there doesn't seem to be a time or place where their lives seem to have crossed paths. I'm sorry man, but we will keep searching." He says while shaking his head.

There isn't any thing for me to say in response to that, so I just turn around and walk out of his office. And turn my attention to my office that houses the two that do have the answers.

I knock once and open the door, it does seem a bit odd to knock on my own door in my own building of my own company but that is what I am reduced too. I steal my nerves and wipe the emotions off of my face as I walk through the door way.

The scene before me shakes me to my core. Hector is holding my Babe lovingly in his arms as she is asleep. I can see the tear stains on her beautiful face and a rage builds from deep within me.

My questions start rapidly firing at him. "¿Qué demonios está pasando aquí? ¿Qué has hecho con ella? ¿Por qué ha estado llorando?"

He answered very calmly and very quietly, if I was a lesser man I would have been scared but my rage at seeing her in his arms like this takes away from any fear I could possible feel from him at this time. "Va a bajar la voz para que no asusta y despierta ella. ¿Entiendes?"

He is right I don't want to scare her, but it seems as if I have woken her, I see her start to move as she wipes her eyes, then she looks at the both of us, smiles and says "Hi guys, are you two behaving?"

She is so darn adorable it was hard not to chuckle at her, so I raise one eye brow and said the only response that was fitting "Babe" and I'll be damn if that s.o.b. didn't do the same thing but with his response of "Fie". I swore that my intel on him was that he was gay, how in the hell do I feel like I am competting with him?

She just rolled her eyes and moved to stand up, I extended my hand so that I could get her out of his arms with all the depseration that I felt. She should only be in mine. She stood up and said "Ok" she looked back at Hector, "this is as much your stor as it is mine to tell. I would like for you to stay while I explain to Carlos. Besides I'm not ready for you to go up in smoke and leave again, do you want to stay while we talk?" she asked him and he just nodded his head once. Again with the hell feeling rolling over me again, she speaks in perfect english and he understsands, and why would he ever leave her? I saw the love he has for her on his face when I came in and he left her? Dumbass! Maybe I still have a chance with my Babe, of course I do she is MY Babe.

She looks back at me for a moment the speaks again to Hector again. "This will mean I will have to share a couple of your secrect are you ok with that?" Again he just nods his head. Well I already figured one out, he understands english.

She nodded back to him then turned her attention fully back to me. She walks up to me while staring into my eyes with her memorizing blue eyes while she places a hand over my heart. "I know I have already said this but thank you for all the kindness you have shown me today. And as I promised I will answer your questions, but first I will explain a few thing but I need you to sit and listen while I get this all out. It won't be easy for me, but I need more of your patience that you have shown me today and just listen until I get it all out. Will you do that for me Carlos?"

I know I am not a man of many words or emotions but the only thing I seem able to do is nod my head and answer with "Babe" again.
