JACOB'S PoV

Fuck! Fuck!

I knew this would happen!

Am such an idiot.

I rush to my secret room that is inside my bedroom, the phone firmly pressed to my ear.

"Bella, find somewhere you can hide. Am on my way." I tell her, hearing her  deep breathing on the phone.

She is terrified
Am the reason behind the fear that is building inside her.

"What? But you are too far. Let me just call the police."

"No! " I shout then say in a more calm voice "don't call the police" calling the police will just complicate things, plus the police will only arrest him but I want him dead.
How dare he?

Putting my girls life in danger! He surely has to die.

"Jac, you are too far, I have to call the police." She insists trying to reason with me.
She has no idea that I actually never left the city. I had to tell her that so that I could do  my job well without any distraction.

"Baby, just listen to me. OK?" I ask and I hear her hesitate for a while before giving a defeated sigh and answers in a low voice

"OK, I won't call them but just hurry up"

"Am on my way" I reply as I sank in two guns behind my pants  and put on a blazer, walking out the door.

"Jack?...." She calls my name then becomes quite, her nervous breathing fills the silence.

"Yes?" I encourage her to continue.

"Please hurry, am so scared" from the sound of her voice I know that she is probably shedding tears, as small sobs escape her lips.

So much for trying to hide.

"I know, everything will be OK. Remember, stay hidden" i tell her and hung up the call, pulling out of the drive way i speed up.

So much traffic!
Seriously! Now is when  it decides to be such  traffic?

'Fuck' i curse under my breathe  slamming my hand on the empty passenger seat.

I wont make it in time.
What am i going to do?
What am i go-

"Vero, what took you so long?" I yell on the phone.
Vero would get to her faster than me.

"Jacob this is not  a good time to talk, I am  quite busy here" she yells back at me.
She sounds busy, in fact too busy.

It was as if she was fighting with some one.

She can't be busy,  I need her.

"Vero  go to Bella's house, someone  just broke in her house. Please" I say as the cars finally start moving and I take this chance to speed up.

Why did I have to leave so far is beyond me. Maybe it is because I do not even stay a complete week in my house.
I have a busy schedule.

"Way ahead of you, just hurry up and save us both. This one is tough!" She yell at her last words.

I hung up the call and cruise to Bella's apartment.

Vero is good, actually she is excellent at her job.
One of the top  assassin, if she has failed to kill this man already then he must be dangerous. The top secret assassin.

Reaching Bella's house, I practically jump out of my car before it even stops.
I push open the apartment door and I saw  Bella,
My Bella being pulled by  her hair desperately struggling to come out of the man's hands.
