Saving Anne [Complete]

Chapter Twenty-Two (Unedited)

"Damn it! Can't you track the location or get a fucking number from these texts...He's fucking everywhere and nowhere at the same fucking time...no I won't calm down. That's my girlfriend he is stalking...Yeah, she has gotten two more today and another fucking picture of her..." Liam's voice carries upstairs in my bedroom. I am surprised that he left me up here alone, but I haven't slept hardly at all since the first text came in a week ago and I am sure he was trying to let me rest. There has been 16 total now.

I hear Liam come into the room and shortly after, the bed dips with his weight. He lets out a sign as his strong arms pull me close to his chest. "I WILL keep you safe."

"Liam, what was that call about." His arms tighten around me even more. He nuzzled into my neck then kissed the top of my head.

"They can't track his phone baby. He's a smart bastard. He keeps purchasing burner phones and disposing of them after he texts you." With his words I could feel the ice in my veins spread throughout my body. Small tremors are replaced with more violent shakes as the enormity of phrase hits me. They can't find him, but he has found me.

"Shhh, baby. It'll be okay. I've got you. I promise, I will protect you. You're mine to protect. We belong to each other. Not just now, but...forever. I always want you with me, Anne." Liam places small kisses on my neck and jaw as I let his confession seep in. Forever. Always. I sigh and turn my head to meet his lips in a heated kiss that thaws the ice that was in my veins. Liam is the first break our kiss. Both of us breathless and panting. "Close your eyes and get some more sleep. I have placed an extra guard on your house. In the morning, I am having surveillance cameras put up around your house too." Both of our hearts slow down as he rubs soothing circles on my back. My eyes flutter closed as I sank deeper into his embrace. He kisses me once more, a feather soft kiss on my lips. "I love you, Anne." I hear him whisper as sleep over takes me.

The morning sun shines through my window gently waking me with it soft glow. A smile places across my face as I remember the last words that Liam spoke to me the night before. "I love you, Anne." He said them to me once before, right before he made love to me after a bonfire at his sister's. He hadn't said them again since, so I wasn't sure if it was a heat of the moment thing. Now I knew that he meant them with all of his heart. Honestly, I don't know how I could have ever have doubted it. All of his actions scream to me that he loves me. My heart swells as tears prick the back of my eyes. He truly has saved me. He saved me from a life of heartbreak and loneliness. He is my salvation and I love him. I roll in his embraces and place soft kisses on his shoulder, then I reached up to his lips. The softness of his kiss never ceases to amaze me. They are warm and soft as rose petals. Liam instinctively starts to move his lips along with mine, then lifted my body on top of his. I pull back and his beautiful green eyes stared sleepily back at mine. "Liam, I love you." I barely get my words out before I am flipped underneath him and my lips are seared with hot scorching kiss, branding my words to him. He lifed his head slightly to search my eyes, his lips break into a smile as he sees the truth in my confession.

"God, Anne. I love you too. You have no idea how much and how happy I am to hear those words from your perfect lips. Say it again, please" His voice is barely a whisper at the end, pleading with me.

"I love you, Liam. I am so completely in love you..." My words are broken off again with a kiss. This kiss is nothing like any of the others we have shared. It starts of slow and soft a promise to love me forever and quickly heats up to passionate claiming kiss. Marking me as his, and him as mine. Always.

Before things could heat up too much there a knock at the door, followed my the ringing of the doorbell. Liam picked up his phone to look at the time, then let out a frustrated sigh. "That's the surveillance company here to install the cameras. Let's get up Buttercup!" We head down stairs after Liam promises me a nice long, hot shower after they leave. My cheeks heated up at that and of course Liam let's me know just how much he appreciates my shyness. "I love the way you blush for me, beautiful."

"Liam, Anne, here is the master control for you cameras. As you can see there are seven total. One at each corner of your house that auto-rotate, but can also be controlled through this computer. There are also stationary cameras placed at each of the entrances; the front door, back door and garage. The feeds automatically upload to your office where they are backed up on the server and are automatically saved on this hard drive for 24 hours. That way, you can review the footage from here in case of an emergency."

"Do these cameras have the upgrades that I requested?", Liam questioned while pulling me on his lap and placing a kiss on my cheek. His hand rubbing slowly up and down my thigh, calming me.

"Yes, they are set to automatically turn to night-vision when it becomes dark outside. There are no blind spots. Here, check this out." Liam friend from the field shows us the computer screen and all seven camera feed show up on the screen at once. I can literally see completely around my house at once. I notice that there are now four guards outside now protecting me instead of three like Liam had told me. I raise an eyebrow to him and he just shrugs. I shook my head slowly at him and then turned my attention back to screens. Looking at the screens, then at my phone, I start to get an idea. I look back at the screens one more time then I turned to Liam.

"Hey, I know how to track Jason."
