The accused wife

Chapter 30

Elissa pov *

Being a little early, I decided to take a coffee waiting for the day care to open. It's been a while since I came to take my son. Adrian wanted to be the one to bring Lucas every evening. But the last two days he was very busy at work. Sipping my coffee I was thinking about the last three weeks, Adrian was more persistent but without being stuffy. He stayed almost every evening to have dinner with us and go back to his house after putting Lucas in bed. Sometimes he slept over in the couch of course. He organised different activities we did together, it was fun even if I applied myself to hide my excitement. I didn't want him to misunderstand.

He never complained or said something. Of course he tried to be closer to me, taking me in his arms or stealing some kisses here and there but never did something more. Even if I didn't want to admit it I became I got used to his presence and Lucas too.

I looked at my watch, it's the time I finished quickly my cup, paid and walked to the day care. My baby jumped in my arms when he saw me. Just couples of hours and missed him so much. He was telling me about his day when a car with dark windows braked violently next to us. I backed off in fear but ready to scream at the crazy driver but suddenly two guys exited from it and pushed me with force before taking Lucas from me. I started to scream at them and tried to catch my son but a third one punched me in the belly and I fell under the pain. After that my baby was in the car which was speeding down the across street. I tried to follow them but my legs didn't support me. Few people came to support me alerted by my screams. I fell on the ground downcast when the car disappeared from my vision. I heard sounds around, people trying to talk to me but I couldn't understand. I looked around my son's bag was on the floor I trembled and took it before running from there not knowing what exactly do.

"Adrian yes I have to call Adrian" I told to myself. I grabbed my phone with trembling hands and dialled his number. He didn't answer, I tried again

"Please for God sake Adrian..."

I finally heard his voice

"Yes Elissa sorry I was in a..."

I didn't let him finish

"Lucas... Lucas" I managed to say

" Lucas what? " He asked

"He... he was kidnapped" I said between hiccups

"What? He what"

"Someone took my son!" I screamed

"Where are you?"

"Near the day care"

"Don't move" he said with a low voice before hanging.

Some minutes later I saw a multitude of police cars coming and Adrian's car too I run to him.

"Explain me what happened" He said taking my face in his hands

I told him everything crying mess. He took me in his arms after that caressing my hair to calm me down

"We will find him Mrs Robertson" I heard someone say. It was a police man who was next to Adrian.

"I heard everything you said so me and my men we are going to do the necessary but I have some questions before that" The cops said again. I nodded at him wiping my tears and living Adrian's arms who stayed next to me.

"Do you recognise one of the men?"

"No"

"Ok do you think there is anyone who would want to hurt you, you or your son?"

"No one" I replied. I don't have enemies at least that what I thought.

"In this case we will check the cameras and if we found something I will came to you. You can go and try to rest there is nothing you can do here"

"Thank you officer" Adrian said

"Who it can be" I said

"We will find it soon" Adrian replied kissing my head. He tried to reassure me but I could see the anguish and the anger in his eyes.

"My poor baby what if they hurt him?"

"Don't say that our son will be fine I promise" Adrian said staring at me cupping my cheeks. I closed my eyes not wanting to think of the worse

"Do you want to go home?" He asked

I nodded and he grabbed my shoulders and made me walk to his car.

It's been almost two hours and nothing new, sitting in the sofa hugging my knees I couldn't stop my tears. Adrian was all the time on the phone.

"Is there something new" I asked with hope. He sighed and sat next to me taking me in his arms.

"Not yet but I was on the phone with a friend who is an investigator and a has a security company he will help us"

"It's been two hours Adrian"

"I know but we have to wait there is nothing we can do"

I heard a sound from my phone, it was a message when I opened I muffled a scream.

"What?" Adrian said taking the phone from my trembling hand.

Lucas was sleeping on a thin mattress. Adrian jumped from his place. He put the phone to his ears

"Fuck voice mail" He said between his teeth

"I tried to call the number but it's off" He added before grabbing his phone and knocked himself in my room.

"Adrian" I shouted for him to come back

"Save my baby save him" I shouted

He walked out of the room finding me on the floor.

He kneeled in front of me taking my hands in his; with dark eyes he said calmly

"I will my love I will... I promise"

He hugged me strongly, he was shaking from rage I could say, my head on his chest I could felt his heart beating madly like it will jump from its ribcage 

"I will bring him back even if it's the last thing I do"
