"Thank you! Thank you!" I uttered over and over while kissing him on the lips.
He chuckled. "I want to see you happy. Just give me time. Will you promise to wait for my decision?"
"I will! Thank you! I love you!" I said with a wide smile on my face.
"When will Luke and the others arrive?" I asked.
"Tomorrow morning. They have to make sure that everything's settled in there before leaving the girls and the kids." He answered.
I appreciate Luke and the others for doing this. Luke wasn't the type of guy who would leave his family like that. He was overprotective with Alora when we were in high school because of the kidnapping that happened when they were kids. Now that they have kids, he's more protective than ever.
"Love?"
"Hmm?"
"Are you busy?" I asked while giving him kisses on the neck.
I felt his hardness poking me. I smiled naughtily and straddled him.
"For you, I'm not busy." He said, smashing his lips with mine.
We made love a few times in the library, making me exhausted. He carried me to our bedroom and laid me down on the bed after we took a bath together.
"Go to sleep. I'll be in my office, call me if you need anything." He said, kissing me on the forehead.
I yawned and immediately fell asleep when he went out of the room.
I felt someone was watching me intensely. My eyes were closed but I felt like a pair of eyes were glaring at me. I felt shivers in my spine. I tried to open my eyes but I couldn't and I can't move.
Then I smelled something that made me feel drowsy, making me fall asleep again.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I immediately checked myself. Nothing is unusual and I feel fine. I looked around the room. No one was around but me. I took my phone on the bedside table and checked the time.
"Nine o'clock." I whispered.
I frowned when I saw a piece of paper on the bedside where I took my phone. I picked up the paper, my hand suddenly started trembling when I opened it.
It was a note and it's obviously from my father, asking me to meet him. It wasn't just a simple note, there's a warning in it.
'MEET ME OR I WILL HAVE TO KILL YOUR HUSBAND.'
It says on the note. Who the hell put it in our room? As far as I know, there were guards just outside the door. Who was the person in my room earlier?
I know there was someone and I know it was my father's spy. I stood up, walked back and forth, to think. He's obviously telling me not to tell Jayden about this. If I told Jayden, he wouldn't let me talk to him. If I don't meet him, he might harm Jayden or worst, Caden.
I don't think he would hurt me. Maybe if I talk to him and give some sense to him, he would at least keep quiet and won't mess with us. But how could I meet him? There's no instruction on the note.
Then I felt that eerie feeling again. The feeling that someone was watching me.
"Who's there? Show yourself! I know you're there." I almost yelled.
I don't know why I didn't scream or cry for help. The guards were just outside, if I shouted I knew someone would come to me.
Then I saw a figure of a man at the corner just behind the door. I forgot to turn on the light, it was too dark so I really couldn't see his face. But from his figure, he was about Jayden's height and he was well built.
"Who are you?" I asked, trying not to stutter.
Then he started walking towards me. I walked backwards and started feeling nervous. This time, I wanted to shout but no words came out. I felt like there was something in my throat.
When he was just a few inches away from mine, I noticed he was wearing a black hoodie jacket and he had a mask on his face.
"Come with me princess and you won't be harmed." He said. His voice was firm and commanding.
"And if I didn't?" I asked.
"Look outside the window." He ordered.
I frowned then stepped back until I felt the wall on my back. I looked outside and was shocked when I saw Jayden in the garden. He was holding his phone and it seems he was talking to someone on the phone.
I looked back at the man with a frown face, waiting for him to answer me.
"One of our men was also in the garden, just one signal from me and your husband is dead. So if I were you, come with me quietly." He said.
I couldn't utter a word. I was trying to figure out who it was. His voice was familiar but I couldn't remember where I heard it.
My heart keeps pounding and I feel my knees weaken but I need to stand still. I looked at Jayden again. I wanted to scream his name and call him but then a hand suddenly grabbed mine.
"Just an advice, do not disobey your father. You won't like the consequences." The man said.
Chills run through my body and I wanted to slap the man from holding me on the wrist. He was so close and I could feel his breath on my neck, making me shiver.
I was about to say something when he grabbed me from behind, covering my mouth with a cloth. I smelled the same scent I had when I was asleep. I tried to struggle but my knees became weaker and my vision became blurry.
No! I have to stay awake! I can't be taken by them! Help! Someone help me! Jayden!
But nothing came out from my mouth. Then I heard another footsteps walking closer to me and as I surrendered my consciousness, I heard a woman's voice.
"Let's take her. Boss is waiting."
