Chapter 18

Kidnapped!

I waited patiently for his return but got no glimpse of him. Tommy left home in the morning to go check on something at work and here I was home and bored. I was done with my work since working from home was easy.
It has been a while since I called Jackie, what was I going to tell her even though she was probably at work now and my sorry ass was willing to disturb her?
Thoughts went back to my Tommy
The thought of him being kidnapped flashed my mind but I waved it off with a wagging head, there is no way he would be kidnapped he said it was safe when I called.
By the way, Vanessa knew better than to try that rubbish since she was given a restraining order against Tommy and me.
Slowly I picked up my phone and called again but it rang and wasn't answered. I  called three more times before it was finally answered and I heard his sweet voice and my insides became excited as he spoke through the phone.
"Hey, Babe!" I said feeling relief course through my veins.
"Have you been so busy to take my call, do you know how worried I had been? Please come back quickly before I go crazy " I half yelled before sighing in relief, at least he was safe.
"Are you talking about Tommy your love well I am sorry to inform you that he is under my custody and I am going to keep him here until he accepted yo line forever you have had him way too long illegally and I don't want to fight anymore with you when it concerns my man so you are going to do exactly as I say else you would not just lose him but you might lose your life and that little trash in your womb too so you better thread wisely for your own sake, is that clear?" I heard none other than the voice of Vanessa Pound on the other end and she bad my Tommy, she had the father of my baby and she was a dangerous woman she could hurt him.
Instead of resulting in insults and threats, I decided to get back to being calm and cool this woman was a psychopath.
When I heard a different voice it made my heart skip a beat as my eyes dilated in shock and I had to call down so I don't go crazy for believing my man was still alive she couldn't do anything to Tommy, at least not how she loves him too much to have to harm him and she would want to do anything to please him.
"Oh hey Vanessa, how are you doing, I can see you have Tommy please could you take care of him properly and for sure you would have whatever you want I beg of you, we could settle all of this amicably and you don't need to do this at least not now, he is expecting and as a woman you know how it feels to have a man by your side when pregnant don't you?" I asked the last question I shouldn't have asked because I used her off like crazy as she started telling how I had opened new wounds and she had never felt the love of having her husband care for her during any pregnancy and he had been a thorn in her flesh and also she spoke of how he was the one who had made her a barren woman with all his kicks on her stomach when she took in and now she miscarried all of her babies so she wanted the only man who had loved her genuinely and hence it was my Tommy.
For someone who claimed to be a kidnapper, she had a lot of issues too.
Before I could say another word while trying not to be frantic and mad at the same time for letting Tommy leave the house I heard another voice on the line, at first, I had thought she was the only one who was with Tommy in a room but having to hear another male voice had my blood boil and I felt the urge to pee before I reached the bathroom I had peed myself.
"Okay this is Swag on the line, so you are to come down here and with no police included too so that you would have to write and undertaking to say you have given up on the love you and Tommy share and after that, you would witness my boss Vanessa and her lovely new husband Tommy tie the knot and begin a new life together" is that clear?" He asked me who was trying to comprehend what exactly was happening and what this was all about in the back I could hear my Baby muffling some sounds and at a point, I think he took off his tape from his mouth because he shouted "don't come here babe" before his mouth was sealed once again
Was my Tommy under torture, sooner or later I had to go down there to save him and j couldn't just sit around and do nothing this was making me go crazy.
I know I didn't have to call the police but they didn't tell me not to call any friends so I called Jackie and explained everything to her at least she wasn't given the warning of not calling the police so she and Micheal could call the police while I took deep breathes in the First trimester of my pregnancy I didn't want to lose this baby for no reason at all but still, I would fight to safe my love.
I didn't call my parents they would worry I had to deal with this on my own, I was a big girl and big girls don't cry unless they are pregnant and their trousers can't fit anymore frustrating the hell out of them.
Is this an illusion? What was happening and why today of all days, I asked myself the questions as I tried Trousers upon trousers I could understand what the heck was going on why I couldn't fit into the trousers finally I wore one of Tommy's and felt like he was with me automatically saying I shouldn't bother everything would be fine.
The life of a pregnant woman.
Michele and Jackie were here as soon as they had been called and I was blessed as Jackie held me close and beckoned I shouldn't be crying because everything was going to be fine.
I nodded and asked if everything was ready and if the police had been informed and she told me everything was under control.
I shut my eyes for a second and opened them again hoping to find myself on the bed with Tommy but none of that happened, I was still standing there, so it was real! My man had been kidnap and probably in torture to accept what he didn't want to do.
"You must be joking Vanessa!" I yelled with a cracked voice as a result of fear.
"It isn't time to shiver Baby girl, just wait till the police get ahold of them the whole state would stone them to death for doing this to a pregnant woman.
Oh gosh!..this is getting me mad!
I knew Tommy would rather die than let them get to me and if he was willing to go through that stress because of me I think I would just give him the same treatment he loves me yes so I also love him too and very much.
What a mess!!
I knew of the great bond between me and Tommy, I  love him so much and that is what I would use against them.
Their love would get Vanessa and her men killed or sent to jail for life for having to put me through all of this it wasn't fair at all having to live with the fear that the love of your life was somewhere probably tortured and the only thought which came to mind was to save him at all cost, even when I knew he had told me not to come because he felt he could take care of himself but I was go8ng to deal with the situation as it is.
Strike the iron while it's still hot was all I was going to do now
Jackie sang for me as she said it was a mechanism to calm me down before anything happens, I was waiting patiently for the police to come to yell us off the game plan and I knew I was going to be bait for where we would go to find them.
Vanessa had told me to call after an hour if I had made up my mind to come to do all the things she told me I was going to do so I think after thirty minutes my mind show should have been made up.
I wanted to meet her, but they can only locate her with the voice help me bring this person down, it's for our safety.." I coaxed and Micheal breathed heavily slumping on the couch with a thud scratching his hair and thinking of so many ways to make this work easily with no casualties.
"This isn't as easy as I thought, we need to be fast.. " he mumbled thoughtfully.
"Can you save My Tommy?" I asked.
The police entered my house and Micheal was discussing with them and suddenly I heard him say "Fine, just arrange your men, I have a plan" I said and I started at the hopeful
After discussing their plan with us quietly and normally I was to be used as bait for this operation since it was me who was wanted by Vanessa I was more than willing to do so but I stopped them midway and told them to have a rethink of the plan so we didn't mess up in saving him and the police assured me everything would go smoothly.
"That's great! Thanks for having a rethink.." I chirped and he smiled before turning to leave.
"There is someone that can make us give them a huge blow" I spoke and he turned abruptly.
"Who is that?" they all asked but I decided to stay quiet before saying it.
"Tristan Pounds, Vanessa's husband could handle this situation with us since it's his wife who is involved in all of these," I said and waited for them to think of it and then someone called Tristan.
As we all loved out with the police siren quiet and then tea king the location from the phone call I was having with Vanessa I knew we were close enough to save the man after my heart and I only prayed he was safe, Jackie was a great help she didn't talk much as usual but she was comforting me with her eyes and soft whimpers and little words she removed from her mouth when she wanted to talk to me as for Micheal men would always be men he was quiet and I am sure he was thinking of ways to make this operation go smoothly the rude was quiet and thoughtf and we all knew this was where we had to be careful when we arrived a secluded building uncompleted and it looked dilapidated and could collapse at any time on those who trespassed but we had no choice I was sent in first with all the police scattered around the building it was now or never and I could never choose because this was possible and this was going to happen and I was going to have my man back into my arms sound and safe as before and those perpetrators would have to tot behind bars and no one was going to come to their rescue.
"Vanessa I am here to do your bidding" I imported for her to show herself to me since the building was super big and I wouldn't have known where to find her.
"Good girl" I heard someone say, I can see you managed to follow orders...
