Jenny’s POV

My eyes opened slowly and I found it hard at first to register where I was. But slowly the bits and pieces of what happened were coming back to me and I realized with shock and panic that I was in the trunk of a car. A moving car.

Fuck.

For how long have I been here? For how long have I been in this car? And where were they taking me? Why were they taking me? Who the fuck were they in the first place? My heart was thumping hard in my chest as I tried to figure out everything. But it was hard to.

The worst part was that I hadn’t even seen the face of the person that took me. I hadn’t had the time to comprehend before he rendered me unconscious.

Luckily for me, my hands and my legs weren’t bound and I wasn’t about to let them take me t somewhere I didn’t know at all just because I knew Ian and Jacob. Or who knows? Maybe Jacob had a crazy girlfriend or fiancee that wanted to pull the Freya stunt on me too.

God.

I should have known being involved with him…having sex with him was a huge mistake and I shouldn’t have tried it. I shouldn’t have done it the first time and I shouldn’t have kept doing it after that first time. I ran my hands over my face and realized just how free the trunk was. Was I in a truck or a van? I was expecting it to be so tight and stuffy but it was quite the opposite.

I raised the hood of the trunk up and was shocked that it was left open. What kind of amateur kidnapped me? Didn’t they know that they were supposed to lock the trunk or did they think I was too much of a coward to come out?

Either ways I had to find a way to come out because if I didn’t, they’d just take me to a place I didn’t know and I really couldn’t allow that. Sophia and Ian were going to get so worried. And…Jacob too. He’d get so mad.

They wouldn’t know where to find me or how to find me so I had to leave this place at least.

I ran my hands through my hair with a sigh then tied it up. I opened the hood of the trunk with sheer determination and and pursed my lips, staring at the way the road went by with dangerous speed.

Fuck.

There was no way I could do this without getting myself hurt.

But then I had to do it anyways.

I made sure I was being careful enough by not pushing the hoos open entirely. That way the person driving will notice that I was trying to escape.

I opened it slightly and rolled down from the car. My body collided on the floor with a dangerous impact and I groaned, my body rolling on the floor while the car continued speeding off.

Jacob’s POV.

I was going crazy. I was very sure that I was going crazy. I couldn’t believe that Sophia had let Jenny step out of the house on her own. I couldn’t believe that she was so careless with Jenny’s life once again.

What the fuck was wrong with that girl? What the fuck was wrong with the both of them? Didn’t they ever learn?

There was a scowl on my face as I drove around, looking at both sides of the road and making sure I was focused. I had been at this for hours, looking for Jenny.

I hadn’t seen her around, and I suddenly didn’t believe what Sophia said about Jenny just stepping out. She didn’t just step out. She wouldn’t just go out of the house without any particular reason.

Or was it that they had a fight? Did they have an argument?

I ran my hands through my hair as I continued driving, my heart pounding in my chest. If Jenny was hurt…if someone had taken Jenny or even as much harmed a hair on her head, I swear I’ll kill Sophia with my bare hands. I didn’t care what that’d mean for Ian and I. He might kill me next but I’ll be the first to kill Sophia for being as careless as this all the damn time.

As I kept driving, I also kept an eye on the rearview mirror and I was surprised when I saw a figure staggering out of the woods. I recognized that hair instantly. It was Jenny. And she was hurt. Fuck.

I had to be conscious of the fact that I was in public if not I’d have vamped out of the car and gone to her instantly. Instead I reversed the car until it came to an halt in front of her. I opened the door and bolted out next to her just as her knees gave out and she was falling.

I caught her, my eyes roaming all over her bodh and noting the bruises on her skin. “What the—who did this to you?”

“Jacob?” She asked with a raised eyebrow, her voice low and drowsy.

“Yes, baby girl. It’s me,” I confirmed.

Her lips spread in a small smile before she finally went unconscious. I carried her and took her into the car, placing her on her back in the back seat before locking the doors and getting into the front seat. I sped off.

I came to an halt in front of their house and rushed down then carried her out of the car and into the house. Ian was back here and he had probably been waiting for me.

Sophia was sitting anxiously in the kitchen and she shot to her feet when she saw that it was me and Jenny together.

“God!” She breathed out, rushing to me. “What the fuck happened to her?”

“I should be asking you,” I grumbled back in response, narrowing my eyes at her and expecting her to get the hint to back off. I wasn’t ready to talk to her and I wasn’t ready to put she and Jenny next to each other. It was obvious enough that she couldn’t take care of Jenny and if she couldn’t, I was going to do that myself. I laid Jenny on the couch.

“Where did you find her?” Ian asked, walking around the couch till he was standing next to me. He crouched down and unbuttoned his sleeves. He placed his hand on her neck and nodded his head. “She’s still alive. Thank God.”

“Yes, she is.” I replied with a nod of my head. “And I found her coming out of the woods.”

“Hmm,” he noted, biting the veins on his arms and putting the blood skilling out of it close to Jenny’s mouth. I opened her mouth so the blood can get into her system.

“What the fuck are you both doing?” Sophia snapped but she kept her distance from us.

“Healing her,” I snapped back. “Sit your ass down and let the adults handle it!”
