Jessie's Pov As soon as I flung the door open, I hightailed it inside and I was shocked to the narrow bone when my eyes at first came in contact with Melanie and then what the heck she's doing inside my kids' room. Before me was a scene in display- she's going about the room ransacking through their things why they kept running after her. Currently, Jake was holding unto one of her legs."What's going on here?" I voiced out, deciding I can't just stay mute and watch them. All at once, they all snapped their heads towards my direction whilst I crossed my arms over my chest, dubious at the act I caught them in. Most especially her - what on earth is she here for, and why's she looking this desperate stalking my kids' room. "Mum!" Jaxon grumbled, stomping his feet down on the ground as the rest pointed towards Melanie who scoffed, slamming their closet closed. " Tell your sons to bring my necklace out of wherever it is they'd it buried. Cause am not so sure I'll be taking it lightly wi
Jessie's Pov"Xander, stop!" Breathless, I dug my foot against the door and watched it as if flung open.His eyes snapped to my direction, as mine trailed up his arm to see him holding unto Kimberly's neck. He looks so furious that I began to wonder how Kimberly had the nerves to come right into his room and challenge him. I marched into the room, and pointed my index finger at my sister's neck while having my gaze fixated on him. Kimberly snarled, causing my gaze to waver and flip back to her."Can you just tell this scumbag to-" before she could end her words, I pressed my palm over her mouth and hushed her up. I looked straight at Xander, "Please, pardon her.""Next time, teach her to stay in her lane!" He spat, pushing himself off her and releasing her neck. She almost slumped down on the floor but I was quick to grab her, removing my hand from her mouth.Annoyed, I grabbed her forearm and stalked out of the room with her. Entering my room, I jabbed the door shut and shoved her i
Jessie's povMy eyes went round a huge fraction when I looked down right on the bed to see nothing but a piece of small clothing. Looking over at the maid for confirmation whether it's her handiwork or not, she looked sideway when she sensed I was about to speak." Why's it that you saw no other thing for me to wear but this? This looks all slutty." I almost screamed my lungs out out while I tried keeping my voice below an octave. Her silence meant something was up somewhere and I don't mind anyways, she must speak up or take her clothes back with her. "Ma'am, I was ordered to." Turning and facing me instantly, she cocked her head but I still wasn't that satisfied. Don't get me wrong, the cloth is actually not that small but hell, without trying it on yet, I know just how much like a kid's own it would be. No doubt, my cleavage is sure to be out to the open which I won't like considering the fact that she's here all of a sudden to pick a dress for me. "By who?" I asked even further
Jessie's povLooking out the window, I checked the wall clock only to grow even more pressured. It's almost 11pm and yet, Xander is yet to be back with the kids. Yes, I do know he went to pick them up from school but I can't help the budging suspicion. Tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear, I opened the window even more wider and sighed into my palms as I brought both together.Had something happened with them or they left for somewhere else instead of coming home right away? Had they missed the way oe6- Oh no, that's not possible. Xander has been living here for only God knows so he can't suddenly miss his way, just like that. That's not possible.All of a sudden, my phone began to ring and I turned around a little, grabbing it in my hand before turning back to on the window and swiping at the receiver. It's an unknown number and even know I shouldn't have answered the call, my instincts screamed out the otherwise to me and I couldn't help it. Throwing my head back, I said into
Jessie's povThe moment I raced out of my room, I almost stumbled forward as I hijacked a random car key of Xander's from his driver. "Give me the damn key and instead of standing there aimlessly, I will be grateful if you use that second to open the fucking gate up for me!" I screamed, my voice so much aloof to my shock but then I didn't show and just dashed over to the car. Opening it and stepping inside of it, I flicked the key into the ignition and ignited it. I reversed out of the parking lot immediately the car's engine roared to life. "Opened, ma'am." When I heard an affirmative response from the driver, I bobbed my head up and down in a nod and gladly sped the car out of the mansion and unto the tarred road. I feel like a police official right now but the only difference is that am not capable of apprehending the culprit. I know of what am getting myself into and I know not to throw all caution in the wind. Because who knows, my life would be in a greater risk that this. I
Jessie's PovI paced back and forth the building looking as though I was locked in a cave. I was kidnapped- Melanie's handiwork. And not only that, I still can't find Xander and the kids here which only means I was tricked into coming here. Creasing my forehead, I looked around the cave; exhausted. It's been more than six hours now and even though I don't have a wristwatch with me nor a time tracker, it wasn't that hard to see through. Plus, the sky is getting dark and currently, have lost all hope I will ever leave here tonight. I scoffed out loud. Great! How awesome would it be spending the night in here. Note the sarcasm. The cave is so dusty and uncared for. Lots of cobwebs running through the roof, and then what worsened it all- it's as scary as hell. Had I known, I should have stayed home and wait for them to finally come but then, I know my heart won't be able to bare it. Right now, I don't even know if they've gotten home yet or they are still lost as I had thought. I'm wo
Jessie's pov It was hard finding my way out. I kept looking backward each and every passing second; scared he might get to me anytime. I'm sure I injured him but not so well, so the rate at which he was quick to react to me stabbing him on the shoulder line was quite unexpected. I saw him as one big husky man but it seems he's not that energized anyways. Since it was too late to see, I almost bumped my head into an unforseen gate that acts as the barrier between this building and where my freedom lays. I realized the biggest shock of my life when it dawned on me that the gate has been locked with heavy shackles that has a key connected to it. Frustrated, I ran my fingers into my air. Now, how the hell in the world will I get the keys? What in earth am I going to do that I won't be apprehended. They are desperate. That's something I noted during the while. They locked me up in a cave which only means that they wanted no risk. As bad as it sounds, I know they'll be after me soon
Jessie's pov"Taxi!"Standing by the isolated road, I stretched forth my hand and began to yell on the top of my voice alongside waving my hand in the air. Bringing my almost dead phone out of my pocket, I glanced at the screen to see it's fucking midnight. Damnit, I should have stayed back inside Scott's car and let him drive us home. I'm in trouble. This place is really deserted that I began to shiver feeling really out of the world. I hope they don't get a hold of me and... Those cruel men! Who knows if they are chasing after me and will soon catch up. "Jessie, is it until they come for you that you'll know what's next?" I heard Scott say and snapped around as fast as possible. Here he is looking at me with a huge smirk on his face whilst, tucking his hands into his pocket. All at once, my anger became soothed and my hand rubbed against my chest, feeling as the pounding reduced. Drastically. "Uhm, I-" I stammered, not knowing what the hell to defend myself with. "Yeah, you're s
