Chapter - 20:

The seemingly abandoned warehouse was flooding with first responders. Ana was sitting on the back of one the ambulances getting checked out. Jacob was standing leaning against said ambulance as he observed his niece getting treated with a narrowed eyes. Christian and the boys were giving police their statements. Jacob was already done with his. Even though Jack wasn't dead, the police kept on giving Jacob suspicious looks.
"Detective?! Is there a reason you keep glancing at my girlfriend's uncle while the criminal of this case is being loaded in your vehicle?" Christian asked sternly.
"It's just strange, don't you think? A serial killer's family member got taken by another serial killer. Even though it looks like he loves the girl and is really protective about her, Jacob Williams didn't kill Jack Hyde. Why?" The detective mused.
"Why don't you focus on giving this asshole his dues instead of worrying about things you don't need to do?" Christian said angrily.
"Right! I apologies." With one last glance at Jacob, the detective left.
To keep herself distracted, Ana turned her head to look at her uncle. "You saved me. Thank you,"
"It was a team effort. I wouldn't have been able to save you if it wasn't for your friends and that boy's IT people," Jacob stated blankly.
"That boy? Do you mean 'Christian'?" Ana asked wincing as the paramedic wrapped a bandage around one of her nail-less fingers.
"Yeah,"
"Why are you calling him 'boy'?" she inquired, both curious and amused.
"Your friends told me everything about how he broke your heart. You lied to me, kiddo," Jacob stated, softly.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Jake. I didn't... I didn't want to trouble you with my messed up relationship," Ana answered with sad puppy eyes.
"I don't like how he hurt you and now he thinks he can just waltz his way in your life again just because he helped to find you. On top of that, he is as interesting as scrambled eggs. And, for the record, I don't find scrambled eggs particularly interesting," Jacob scowled, rolling his eyes.
"Scrambled egg?! Seriously, uncle? How awful!" Ana mocked him with a sad smile.
"Yes, Ana. It is awful, but do you know what I realized today?"
"What, Uncle Jake?!"
"It's terrifying what I'd do to keep you safe. I don't even know how I stopped myself from tearing that asshole apart. It was really hard," Jacob said with a wry smile.
"Nothing worth it is ever easy," Ana smiled up at him, "and having you with us here is definitely worth it,"
"If you're sure, kiddo," Jacob sighed deeply before his eyes fell on Christian who was heading towards them hesitantly. "Here comes the boy," he warned Ana rolling his eyes.
