I wake up with a smile on my face as Caleb trails kisses down my back. "Good morning to you too my vanilla ice cream." I say happily. "And how is my most favorite chocolate doing this morning?" He asks. I roll on my side and faces him. Well I couldn't be better. I am with the man I love." I respond kissing him passionately. We play around for a while. Everything is perfect. We will soon be meeting up with our son. Or baby boy. Onyx will finally meet his daddy. I don't think anything can change my mood right now. "I love you so much Caleb." I tell him kissing him gently on the lips. "I love you more baby." He replies then takes up his phone and starts looking at Onyx's pictures. "Babe look what our love made. He is beautiful." He says looking at our son with pure love.
We completed day two of the business meeting befoe noon and head back to the hotel to get ready to leave. As I pack my stuff my phone rings. Becca. "And how are my two love bugs doing?" I ask happily. "Nessa.....Neeessaaaa......" Becca cries over the phone. I stopped what I am doing "Becca Becca. What happened? A few you ok..?" I asked trying to calm her so she could speak. "He took him. He isn't here." She cries out. "What are you saying. Who has taken who?" I ask becoming more worried. "Where is Onyx Becca? I ask. "Someone took him. He isn't here. Come home now." She says and continues crying.
It feels as if my heart has been torn out of my chest. My baby. Onyx. He isn't home waiting for me. No. This can't be happening. Caleb. Caleb. I have to get to Caleb now. I sprint out of my room and head for Caleb's room. I bang on his door hard and loud until he opens it. "He...he...he.....he....he.....he is gone." I fall to the floor crying. "Nessa what happened? What are you saying?" Be asks trying to get me to talk. "Onyx is gone. Becca....Becca called. She said that someone left with hiiimmmm." I cry out holding my stomach. At this point in time I just feel like dying. I didn't protect my baby.
Caleb calls someone and tells the person to fly in so he can get somewhere ASAP. After ending the call he says we need to go to an airstrip. We are not flying commercial to Dakota. Especially when my son has gone missing. I nod and get up run to get my stuff and meet him at the front of the hotel.As the chopper flies with us Caleb is calling up a few people asking to meet him in Dakota. I pray in my heart through the flight just to hold my baby again. I want him to be ok. I breakdown crying hard. "Baby it's ok. Listen our son is gonna be ok. We will find him. I know you're hurting now. We will find him." He comforts me even though I can see the sadness in his face. I want to answer but I can't find the words. "Onyx is gone Caleb. My baaayy-beeeee........I lost my baby. What they hurt him? What if we never find him? What if.....what if......" I stopped as I would have said the unimaginable. I look up at him. At this point I start thinking about who I have done wrong. I run the answers through my brain. Nobody. Onyx and I have no enemies. Then I wonder about Becca. Still nothing came up. Then I turn my attention to Bailey. What if she has something to do with this. What if she found out about my son and done something to him. I shake this thought from my head. Its impossible right? I mean she doesn't know about my son. Or knows where we live we. So who could have done this. I am lost. I don't know where to begin looking.
When we landed Becca is already at the police station giving her statement and told her to meet her there. As I run through the station's door I can hear Becca cries without having to search or ask for her. I run to her. "Where is Onyx? What happened? How did this happened?" I shake her asking. She drops back into the chair she was sitting on and cries. "Nessa let me tell you what happened. Onyx and I both settle in for bed. While I was asleep I hear as if a glass break. I go to see what it was and something hit me in the back of my head. Before passing out I could see the silhouette of a man walking towards the rooms hallway. That's all I remember. After waking up I run to check on him and he wasn't there. I thought he climbed out of bed as usual but he was no where and that's when I called you and rush to the police station immediately." The more she explains the worse my heart sinks. I turn to the police handling the matter. "Then why are we here? My son is out there somewhere with strangers and you are all here writing. You should be out looking for my baby." I continue yelling. "Ma'am calm down. We already assigned a crime division team to investigate and search the property for any evidence that can help with the case. I know you're very concerned and uneasy about this but I assure that we will do all we can to have your baby returned to you." Even though his words are encouraging I am still not convinced that they are doing enough.
