Jerrie's Adoption Story

Chapter 62

Jade's POV

Staring at this strange man at my front door he says nothing, just holds out a piece of paper and stood there waiting for me to read it. Strange altercation to say the least but I knew that these people were dangerous so I didn't try anything to threaten the man.

As I'm reading the letter my attention turns to my girlfriend as she comes into view, "Jadey who's at the door?" She asked curiously as she rounded the corner the man, taken aback, and following instructions from his boss in case there were any interruptions, quickly grabs Jade and has his arm around her neck pulling the gun out of his pocket. "Oh my god Jade!" Perrie says about to run up to us. "Stay back!" The man yells pointing the gun at My head. I whimper and say, "Perrie they're very dangerous, just listen to him" I tell the woman shakily.

Perrie slowly raises both her hands and says, "please, let her go, what do you want?" The man tightens his grab on me and I groan because I feel like my airway is being crushed. "Well aren't you going to invite me inside?" He asks rather calmly. "No perrie" I struggle to say but he simply says, "I didn't ask you to speak!" Before punching me in the side and keeping his grip on me. "Now lets have a chat, before things get worse" he says stepping into the house.

Perrie is clearly freaking the hell out shaking, "please just let her go" she pleads to the man. But the only thing on my mind right now is the six year old we have upstairs. "Per-" my voice haves out once he tightened his hold once again. She looks at me almost in tears but she's more frightened than anything. "Now here's how thing are going to go" The man begins, "we're going to do things my way" and with that he brings the back of the weapon with tremendous force to the side of my head and with that, I'm out.

Perrie's POV

Rushing to Jade's side as she lay unconscious on the ground, "Jade baby!" I struggle trying to wake her up. The mysterious man pulls me up, "leave her. Sit" I slowly cooperate keeping my eyes on my girlfriend. "Please just tell me want you want, we won't go to the police" I beg. He stays quiet, I try to keep my composure while I silently debate what the hell I'm supposed to do. And where the hell are our guards!?

I look at the clock 8:56pm Zoey's tablet was about to go off at any time now since I set the timer and it would shut itself off after the time limit has been reached for tonight. As if reading my mind about my daughter, "I know you have a wonderful six year old just up them steps, don't worry we won't cause any harm to her as long as you listen to me" "I'll do anything" I say desperately.

"Now here's how things are going to go, hand me your phone, I'm going to text miss Jesy Nelson" he says. Struggling to get my phone out of my pocket because of shaker hands I give him my phone. "Unlock it" he says giving it back to me. I hold my thumb to the home button and hand it back to him once it's done. I silently plead for him not to hurt Jess as he's ordering for her to come over.

   'He said he wouldn't hurt Zoey, I just have to do whatever he says.' I think to myself. "Well well who's ally? If I hadn't known better I'd think you were dating her" she chuckled withholding any actual emotion. "She's just a friend of mine" I tell him. "Mommyyy!!" I hear Zoey yell from upstairs. My eyes go wide, "please don't hurt her!" I say quickly going to stand up but he points the gun at me, "sit down, I won't hurt her as long as you and the others listen" he says. I slowly sit down, "now call her down here" he says. "No please!" I plea, "What did I say!?" He shouts waving the gun around. "Promise you won't touch her?" I say seriously. "Swear it, as long as you do as told." He says simply.

Definitely not wanting Zoey down here anywhere near this mess, but not wanting anything bad to happen to her more I call her downstairs. "Mommy the steps" she cries, still out of view. "She's scared of the steps, please let me go help her" I say to him. "Hurry" is all the invitation I need to rush to my daughter. Climbing the steps quickly to get to her side, "baby I need you to be very good right now okay? You stay still and listen to everything mommy says okay?" I say to the tiny child who clings to my hand. "Okay mommy" is all she says being too focused on the stairs and not falling.
