Snatched

Chapter18

time is tickin' but your my love (Kehlani)

Continued....

JAS

I stared down the barrel of a shiny gun. I instantly became fearful for not only my life but my unborn child's life.
"Did you hear me? Come with me or you die now instead of later."
I knew her.
I knew her from somewhere.
"Who's at the door!?",Erica yelled.
My breathing hitched in my throat.
I could feel a cold object being pressed against my temple.
"Quickly now."
I hurriedly slipped my feet into my flip flops and rushed out the door.
I remembered who the female was now.
Cara.

CORDYN

I sat up in my seat slowly.
"Son you hear me?",I heard my father say through the phone.
"Shit!",he said.
Morgan quickly grabbed the phone and hung up. The gun still pressed firmly against my temple.
"Follow my instructions and you'll die later rather than sooner."
I sat up straight in the drivers seat.
"Now Drive."
I buckled my seat belt and drove. At first I just kept driving down the straight road until he told me directions to go.
I swear this nigha got my gun. That's MY gun.
Before it was mine it was my mothers gun.
He gone get killed with the same gun he should have gotten killed with before. I don't know what my mother saw in him.
After a few more turns down the busy street he told me to pull into an alley.
He told me to park in the parking lot at the end of the alley.
Alot of things were roaming through my mind.
One would be the outcome of this bullshit.
Am I gone survive this?
Am I ever going to see my child?
Am I ever going to see Jas?
Will she have to raise a child by herself?
Is she okay?
Then the anger.
I've been betrayed by my own family. My boys. I can't believe I turned on my father like that.
For a fucking trader.
I was dumb as hell, and now my babies are in danger.
"Get out."
I got out with a solemn face.
He pushed me with the head of my gun to and through the front door of the warehouse.
It was very old.
Buildings were built around it so I never knew it was here. The door was rusted.
Once he closed the door behind himself he switched on the light.
The sight before my eyes frightened me with everything in my body.
There she sat.
Tied up.
Jas.
"Baby."
I rushed over to her. Her face looked tear stained. She looked scared. She looked weak.
She was drifting off to sleep and could barely keep her eyes open.
"What the fuck did you do to her!!"
I looked up to see Cara's bitch ass walking towards us with her regular hoeish sway.
"Baby I missed you."
She wrapped her arms around my neck and stared into my eyes.
I quickly pushed her off and wrapped my arms around my baby.
What they didn't know was I was slowly unloosening the ropes that bound her.
"What'd you do to her?",I asked again.
I wanted to stall.
Cara and Morgan laughed.
Only then could I see the similarities in their eyes.
Evil.
"Well..she's a little doped up. I hope it doesn't affect the baby."
My eyes widened and I shot up from my kneeling position.
I ran up to them only to have my gun aimed at my head.
"Whoa there buddy. Slow your role. I wouldn't want anything to happen to Jas."
I looked back to see Iris now standing behind her and aiming a gun at her crying face. She looked so hurt.
It's all my fault.
"Let us go. We don't want shit from you."
Morgan and his sidekick laughed evily again.
"We want nothing more than to hurt your father. So let us do our job."
Cara ugly ass chimed in.
"One of you dies today. You can decide which."
"Me.",I said quickly after.
"No.",I heard faintly.
I knew it was Jas. I had to save her and my child. This was our only hope.
"How do I know that you'll keep her safe."
Morgan laughed dryly.
"It's your only hope now."
I walked over to Jas limp body and kissed all over her face and stomach. Murmuring a few words to her and my baby.
I could feel a tear welling in my eye as I hungrily kissed her lips.
She knew it was the last kiss we'd share.
"I love you. I always will."
"I-I love you t-too.",she sobbed back.
I pecked her lips a few more times before I walked over to Morgan, who was still aiming the gun at me.
"Come on. In the bathroom. We have a business transaction we can discuss since you were so gullible."
He pushed me into the bathroom but all I could think about was the taste of strawberries on my lips.

JAS

I sobbed harder once Cordyn walked into the bathroom. My own father betrayed me.
I looker Cara in her eyes to see her staring at me with so much hatred.
Iris still stood behind me.
"Soon he will be dead, and you'll be left for dead."
She chuckled dryly.
"Why do you hate me so much?!"
She shrugged.
"Our father used to spend so much time with you like you were the golden child. Now you're just a dead child."
I thought of something to say when in a blur a loud bang echoed the room followed closely by another bang but it didn't sound like the first one.
"CORDYYYYYNNNN."
