Jessica's POV:

I'm so fucking stupid. About a month ago I hired a new assistant as my old one literally disappeared off the face of the earth.

At the same time I started receiving threats against my family and I. I didn't mention anything to Andy because she doesn't need the stress.

She came by to my office for lunch and saw Brittany and I kissing.

If she would only let me explain why. It was to protect her. Brittany showed me proof that it was her sending the threat and that if I didn't sleep with her she would kill the love of my life. I wouldn't have believed her if it weren't for the pictures of my Andy. She had pictures of her at various places

She was in genuine danger if I didn't do this. I had to protect the love of my life. The mother of my kids.

I tried calling her but obviously she's ignoring my calls.

I race back into my office, running like my life depended on it because it did. My life is my family and Andy is part of that so it did depend on it.

I reach my office to see Brittany still there with no clothes on.

"What the fuck do you want Brittany?!" I yell loud enough that anyone else on the floor can hear me.

"I told you. Sleep with me."

I shake my head again and leave to go find my love.

~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~

She's been missing for 2 days. 2 days without my baby.

I had to go into the office to fetch some stuff while everyone waited at home. They were mad at me and I let them be. I had no energy left. Between the crying and taking care of our kids I've been emotionally and mentally strained.

I walk with bags under my eyes. My unkempt hair and sweats and her hoodie.

Brittany immediately smirks as she sees me and walks to me.

"I'll let her go. Today. Just. Sleep. With. Me."

She pulls on my hoodie strings and I push her off.

"What do you mean let her go. You bitch! Did you take her?!" I scream out.

She giggles and I want to punch her in the throat for it.

"Well of course silly. I want you and she's in my way."

After hearing that my anger takes over and all I see is red. I unconsciously deliver a nasty blow to the sweet spot under her chin and she's knocked out.

I take my phone out and call one my good friends over at the police station.

Within 10 minutes he was there taking her away in cuffs.

"We'll find her J." he said as he passed me. I just nodded with a clenched jaw.

I decided on one more stop before I went home.

I drove to a buddy of mine who dabbled in illegal hacking. We used him from time to time in the firm.

He opened the gate and I drove in, parking beneath the canopy.

I stepped out of my car and saw the guy standing in shorts and a baggy shirt, looking high. Nothing new.

"Heyyy Ms Jessica." he said in a lazy voice.

"It's Mrs actually. I need a favour Hugh. I'll give you double what I normally pay you."

"Double?"  he asked wearily. His pay was relatively high and I'll give him double, even triple. Anything it takes to get my baby back.

I nod and give him all the information I have before leaving.

I get home and am immediately tackled by our kids.

"Mama!" they both scream as we have a massive group hug.

"Where's mum?"  Taylor asked in her usual shy and soft tone.

"She'll be back soon honey. I miss her too."

She didn't have to say she misses her but I know it.

I decide to take a nap seeing as it was quite late and drag our kids with me. We cuddle up and fall into the dark abyss of sleep.

~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~

I wake up bright and early at 5am. The kids are still asleep and I don't expect them awake at this time.

I walk downstairs and my in laws are cuddled on the couch with Alice sobbing into Dana.

Dana hears me first and glares at me before focusing back on Alice.

I head to the kitchen and make a fresh batch of coffee.

As I'm waiting my phone rings and it's Hugh. I immediately answer and put it on speaker, waving her mum's over.

"Hugh?"

"Yea hey. I got some info. She's been contacting someone names Samual Forrester. I traced his cellphone back to a barn an hour away from here. Seems like he inherited it from his parents a couple years back."

"Thank you. You'll have your payment if everything checks out."

"Pleasure doing business Chase."

He cuts the call and I call my buddy at the station and inform him about the lead.

I race to the room and put on a tactical kit which is all black before going back down.

"Watch the kids. I'll be back with our Andy."

They both nod and I get into my Mazda.

I drive to the police station and see 2 swat teams ready to go. The cops here see me as family and they are all for protecting their family.

I hop in with one of them and we start our drive.

About halfway though I get a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach and I just know it's Andy.

When they looked at her card, they saw a charge to a hotel and so we drove there on day 1 and on the floor were all her clothes she wore on that day.

The bathroom light was on and she looked like she might have been taken naked. I don't want to think what that sick bastard did to her but I will make sure him and Brittany get life without parole. It's what they deserve.

We stop about half a kilometer out and walk the rest of the way as we didn't want to draw attention to ourselves.

I was ordered to stay at the back to be protected and I listened to them.

I was handed a handgun and we all went in.

We got inside the barn, unnoticed and there was my wife tied up naked on a table, the sick bastard standing over her with a knife in hand.

All I wanted to do is run over to her but instead I let swat do their job. I can't guarantee that she'll be safe if I just charge to her.

They all pointed their guns at him.

"Samual Forrester put down your weapon and step away from the table!" the captain scream.

He was then alerted to all the green dots of guns pointed at him. Realizing he was outnumbered, he dropped the knife, it landing on her leg while he smirked sadistically.

He didn't step away, instead he made a move toward the knife and the captain shot him in his leg while the rest of the team moved to apprehend him.

I raced to my wife as swat unstrapped her and quickly put on a gown I brought for her before holding her as we both cried.

I spoke to her whispering how much I loved her in her hair where my face was buried as hers was in my neck.

I hoisted her up, holding her under the knees and back before walking out to the ambulance waiting for us.

I layed her on the stretcher and as I turned to walk away, her hand caught mine and the terrified look in her eyes broke my heart.

"I'm right here baby. I'm always right with you baby. I love you my angel."

She didn't say anything just looked in my eyes.
