Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 28: The appointment
My morning was weird. I woke with the smell of Jaxson in my nose. It covered the spot where I lay my head and several times, I woke up unable to breath because my nose was pushed so hard to the back of the sofa just trying to inhale it in my sleep. Even waking up like that it was the best sleep, Ive had in awhile and I didn’t wake up needed to run to the bathroom and get sick. Which is has annoying as it is amazing. Then when I got downstairs Tony was waiting for me, he looked a nervous when he saw me. I greeted him with a smile, yes, I was weirded out that he beat the man but something else inside me that felt safe with him. Even if that was ridiculous, I just knew he wouldn’t hurt me. I reminded him I wasn’t going to work, and he simply told me he knew and he was taking me to my appointment. I had a mild freak out; I was worried he would find out what kind of doctor I was seeing but then I remembered it was at the hospital and there were so many doctors he couldn’t know unless he cam
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 29: Twins?
Esmerelda“Excuse me?” I lean up on my elbows and look at her. Surely, I didn’t hear her correctly. She just gives me that small smile that is starting to get on my damn nerves. She grabs my hand.“I’ll go get the doctor. Why don’t you put the gown on and lay back using the sheet to cover lower half.” She gives it a squeeze. Then drops it leaving the room. Leaving me to try and process that I may not only be pregnant but carrying twins. She could be wrong, right? Maybe it was my heart beat she heard and not another baby. Yeah. That’s it she didn’t hear it right. She’s wrong and she knows it that’s why she said I would need an ultrasound.With that thought, well affirmation might be more like it, I get up and start to strip out of my clothes. I have just laid back when a knock on the door come.“Come in.” I say as loud as I can with my voice being as shacky as it is. It open and an older woman pops her head in seeing that I am all covered, not sure why I would tell her to come in if I
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 30: Not Backfire
Esmerelda The force in which I hit the ground would have had my head bouncing off the cement if not for a large hand cradling it from the blow. Two bad that the same can’t be said about my body. It takes me longer than I would like to admit to figure out what the hell just happened. And I only figure it out when the shots keep ringing out around us has Tony used himself to cover my body. Then the squeal of tired and everything goes silent. Everything stands still other than the rise and fall of mine and Tonys chest. Feeling starts to come back when something warm and wet hits my hand trapped at the sides of my body. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what it is.“Tony… One of us is bleeding. I don’t feel anything, so I don’t think its me.” I say carefully still trying to get a grip on what hell just happened.“Are you okay. Ms. Roth?” He stays through gritted teeth pushing up to look at me. I see the pain in his eyes. I also he is struggling to focus them and its looking really p
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 31:The Call
JaxsonIf the earth would open and bury me alive it would hurt less, then hearing her struggling to control her tears and breathing. Shit its hard for me to get my own breath listening to it helplessly on the other end of the phone. I had no idea who was calling when I saw the number, but something told me to pause my meeting and answer. I am glad I did. Now if only she could tell me where she was and what was wrong. When she could finally talk, I heard her repeat about the car backfire. At first, then she said she hit the ground. A picture starting forming in my head I didn’t like at all. I needed her to finish talking. So, I asked what she meant.“Tony, he knocked me to the ground.” She took a deep breath and said the next part so fast I barely caught it. “It wasn’t backfire. It was fire, like open fire gunshots. He saved me but he got hit instead. And they won’t tell me anything.”Everything froze. The very air in my lungs refused to move, all the sound around me with the meeting s
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 33: Why?
EsmereldaThe phone falls to the floor, and I don’t even have a chance to try and grab it while the man starts to pull me towards what looks to be a maintenance hallway. Away from anyone who might hear me scream and not towards the security office I saw near the front of the hospital when I first arrived.“Where the hell are you taking me.” I demand trying to dig my feet into the ground. It doesn’t do much good since this guy is a mountain of nothing muscle. His grip gets tighter on my arm causing the pain of it to worsen, as he smirks over his shoulder at me.“You’ll see.” Well, that’s ominous as fuck.“You aren’t actually a security guard who works for this hospital are you?” I know it’s a stupid question. I really do but something inside of me needs to hang out to the hope that not everything is bad, not everything is going to end in pain and suffering.“Not even a little sweetheart.” And that hope is shattered by his cold voice that doesn’t match the way his eyes heat as he drags
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chaper 34: Only her
JaxsonTo say I broken every traffic law while getting to St. Francis would be an understatement. I ran red light and stop signs. I sped like my own life didn’t matter, because at the moment it didn’t all the mattered was getting to her. I have still yet to look at what that could mean, but I had a feeling I would need to and soon. I even flipped an illegal bitch in an effort to change my route when there was an accident that happened at the light ahead of me. I couldn’t tell you the number of times I hit redial on my phone to try and get her to pick up again just to hear what was happening. No matter how illogical that was.Logically in my head I knew what had happened, no not happened. Was happening. Get almost shot is was happened and I had an idea why that happened too, but this was happening now as I made the drive that should only take fifteen minutes, but felt like a life time. She was being taken. Someone felt for what ever reason she was the way to get to me, they weren’t wr
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 35: Shock
EsmereldaEverything falls away and next thing I know I am in Jaxson’s arms. I am vaguely aware of him taking but only because his deep voice causes a vibration in his check. I know I whine when he tries to pull back. But I can’t help it I feel safe in his arms. More talking and then he tries again.“Somewhere safe.” That all I heard, and I panicked thinking he was going to let me go. I know once I think back on this and calm down, I will be embarrassed but right now I can’t be bothered to do anything but suck up his warmth. So, I try to climb him. I think he laughs but he gives me what I want, what I need and so I will forgive him, later. We are moving and I feel the air con hit me I shiver. My body already fills cold enough. His arms tighten around me.“It’s okay we will get you warm soon.” He voice is in my ear. He must have leaned down because I also feel the warmth of his breath. I just nod my head as I push my head further into his neck. He starts running one hand up and down my
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 36: His fault
Esmerelda“Hello?” I say I know it comes out more of a question, but I don’t understand why he needs what was it Jaxson called it? Proof of life? He lets out a sigh of what I assume of relief.“Esmerelda? Are you okay?” He sounds so tired. Maybe if I answer him, he will rest.“Yes…” I pause wondering what all I should say I don’t think telling him what just happened will help but I hate lying when asked a direct question, not telling Jaxson about the babies is one thing. Flat out not answering someone or answering with out the truth is another thing, at least to me. “I am a little shaken up. Well, a lot shaken up with everything. But we can talk about that later.” There that isn’t a lie.“Why do I feel like there is more that happened?” He asks. I exhale.“There is. They wouldn’t tell me anything about you and that scared the shit out of me.”“Don’t worry sorellina I am fine.” I can hear his smile. I have no idea what he called me, but something warms inside of me. Not the way Jaxson

Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 86: Not that strong
JaxsonTwo weeks. It's been two weeks since the accident. We are no closer to finding her then we were the day she was take. And I am no better for it. Simply put I'm a mess. I forgot what sleep is. I don't think I have showered unless someone drug me in there and forced me to shower. I have put all my time into finding out who the hell took my Gypsy. Waiting by the phone for a call, yet none has come. I'm starting to worry none will."Jaxson. You can't keep doing this to yourself." Nico says as he enters the dining room."Not now, Nico.""Yes, now.""No, just leave.""Listen, brother, I understand you are going through a lot right now. But you can't keep doing this. You have a business to run.""I don't care about the fucking business." It's true right now I could truly give a fuck about the company can burn to the ground for all I care."Well, you should.""Nico.""No, listen. I know you want her back, we all do, but you can't do it if you don't take care of yourself.""He is right,
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 85: Not a fairy tale
EsmereldaThe doctor comes in and tells me what I already knew. That the twins are still fine. By the time he got here my main concern was answered by the flutters of them moving. He then gives me something for my head, which has started to pound. He also gives me a cream for the bruising on my face and neck. When the guy first put the gag in, it hurt. But now, when I rub the cream over the area, it doesn't hurt, and it makes the redness go down.When the doctor leaves, the boss is there waiting for him. The doctor and the boss exchange words, and the doctor hands him a few bottles, then leaves. The boss doesn't come back into the room after the doctor leaves. So I take time to look around. Its set up like some kind of mother-in-law suite. The room I am in looks like the living room and the kitchen. Behind the first door I find I see a small bathroom with a standing shower. The next door a closet, and the last is a bedroom with a full size bed covered in what looks like a think down c
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 84: Not again
JaxsonA groan rips from my throat. I have the worst headache and I am cold. Really cold. What the fuck happened? I try to open my eyes, but it hurts too much. The light is blinding and all it does is make the pain worse."Mr. Cancade. Mr. Cancade. Can you hear me?" I try to talk, but nothing comes out. My throat is so dry."Shhhh, it's okay." A woman's voice says, but it's not my woman's voice. "What...the...fuck...""You were in an accident.""Gypsy." I croak."Who?" The woman says."Where...is...my...wife.""Um, she is, well, we are trying to find her." What? I must have heard that wrong."She...""We know who you are talking about, but right now, we don't know where she is. Your driver said she was in the car. But we didn't see her.""How...""It's a long story." Long story? What the hell is a long story?"How..." I try again."It will all be explained once you are feeling better." Why does she keep interrupting me?"My wife.""Let's just get you healthy, and we will tell you eve
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 83: Not so special
EsmereldaJaxson is telling me the guys are back and are fine, and all I can think is how amazing it will be to have everyone together. The last time I saw them they were leaving for their trip, and they were all excited. Well, Paully wasn't exactly excited, but he was glad to have something to do. He hates sitting around waiting, which is all we have been doing. Waiting on the man in the shadows, or the guy who took me to show their face. Well they actually knew there was a chance he was out there, I only had to wait till my dreams to see him again.I was so upset when the guys left. They have all become like my family. Like having brothers, I never had before. Jaxson is right, they did call everyday wanting an update. But I have still really missed them.I know what is about to happen when I see the head light appear behind Jaxson's head but there is no way for me to warn him, I can't it happens to fast even if it feels like it's happening in slow motion. By the time it takes to ope
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 82: Grown Wings
JaxsonSix weeks laterWe are all gathered in the dining room. It is the first time we are having a family meal. After Esmerelda woke up from the hospital, I have kept her close. After we questioned the men who we took from there that night, we got to other information for who their boss was. They actually seemed to not know. I can't see why they would be so loyal to a man they have only worked for, for only a short time. All anyone could say was they were approached a few weeks ago and promised when he took back over the city, they would want for nothing. No they are rotting in an underground dungeonThat is the thing that has me stuck, whoever the hell this man is he said when he took the city back, meaning he had it at one point. That narrows it down on who it could be, but it doesn't give me a single man. But what the soldiers did say is he has been in hiding since the take over.We still have a few men out there, but most of them are on their way back. We are getting closer. I fe
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 81: The Boss
The Boss*The night of the rescue*That did not go as planned. It was sheer dumb luck I wasn't there when Jaxson stormed in, and pure foresight on my part for never giving out my name. I don't know if anyone was taken alive, but even if they were they will never be able to share a name with him or his men. The problem now is that I lost all of my guys. I have no one left in the city, and I have a feeling that he knows the real reason why I took her. It wasn't just to get his attention. No, I have someone else pulling my strings. Someone who should be calling any minute and I am dreading this call. There is no way he didn't hear about it. The only good thing is that he doesn't have a location for me. So, that is one small victory.When my phone rings and his name pops up, I want to throw the phone across the room."Sir.""So, what the hell is the meaning of all of this.""Meaning, sir?""Do not play coy with me. I saw the report on the news. And she was taken to the hospital?" That is
Twins of Deception: Love in Shadows Chapter 80: Selfish
JaxsonAll I can do it stare at her in confusion. What the actual fuck is she talking about? Cheating? And what the hell is she talking about a whore. She is the farthest thing from it."Gypsy, sweetheart. What the hell are you talking about?" She looks at me her face covered in tears and snot. She has never looked more beautiful."He used my mouth, and I just let him. He was going to do more. I would have let him, but his boss came and stopped him." The rage in me boils up but I try to keep a calm exterior his death was far too quick."You don't have to worry about him anymore." I say while processing the rest of what she said. I'm not sure how she thinks that was cheating when it was pure survival for her and our babies. I have unfortunately seen men like him, all dead now, but they would have got what they wanted with or without her corporation."What? Why not?""Because he is dead. We found you. We took care of everyone." I cup her cheeks. "You never have to worry about anyone tou

EsmereldaBeepBeepBeepBeepMy heart is beating, and that's a good sign. My head hurts, and my whole-body is sore, but it's not the worst pain I have ever felt. What is the worst is not knowing if my babies are okay. I haven't opened my eyes yet, too scared of what I will see."I think she is waking up." A small voice whispers. One I don't know."Baby, can you hear me?" I recognize that voice."Jaxson?" My throat feels dry and scratchy."Hey." He whispers. I open my eyes, and the first thing I see is his tear stained face."Jaxson." I try to move towards him, but it hurts. "The babies.""They are fine. Shhhh. They are fine.""How can you know?""Well, you have been out a few days. They did an ultrasound, and the doctor did a test. The twins are fine.""A few days?""Yeah, baby. A few days. You have been out for a while. Your leg was pretty bad, and you had an infection. You have been in and out for a few days.""Where are we?""Home. Well my home. Frankie has been a live wire." He b

JaxsonTwo hours ago.I am sitting in my living room waiting on word about Esmerelda. We have had men on the ground scouring the city. Everywhere and have come up with nothing. Malachi has taken my phone. After my last conversation with the unknown caller, it went crazy."Who the fuck was that?""Not sure. But we will find out.""How did he get this number? How did he know where I was?""Boss, I have a feeling that is the least of our problems.""You're fucking right. We need to find her.""I know.""So why the hell are we standing here!" I start walking to the door, grabbing my jacket, and keys."What are you doing?""I am finding her.""You are going to go look.""Yes.""No, boss. You are going to stay here.""Like hell, Malachi. This is my fault.""No, it's not. If anything, it's mine. I should have found this fucker way before he got to her.""We can't sit here and play the blame game. We need to find her." There is knock at the door. "Enter." I say still trying to think of somet
