He was only allowed to live as long as he was serving the Critiano family, when he left to find Connie, he igored Loretta's order telling him to stay, which, essentially broke the 'deal' Luca had made with the guild, ect. that was allowing him to live. So, according to the deal, he was no longer under protection, and to be 'disposed of' since he was no longer 'helping' the Cristiano family. This is why he was given no help in the fight between Striker and Beretta. He didn't want to put Loretta in danger, which is why he refused her help, and left alone, and why after he left, she was so devistated(look at the way she hugs Galahad). Marco's job early on was to protect Loretta. He tells her before he leaves that she is 'his pride.' He didn't want to involve Loretta in his 'personal problems' knowing how dangerous it would be. He pretty much signed his own death sentence by leaving, in exchange for keeping Loretta out of it, and getting Connie back, even if for just a short time. He gave Galahad his and Connie's rings because he knew he likely wouldn't beat Striker, and that if he did, he would be dead anyway. But, he wanted to spend his last moments with Connie. Which he did.
