Jasmine
“Get her in the van now! They are closing in on us!”
I moan as I feel myself being lifted up.
“Fuck she’s waking up give her another dose!”
Dose of what? Where am I? I hit something solid and realise I’m lying on something cold and metal. An engine roars to life as something sharp sticks into my leg and two loud bangs sound out.
“Go! Go! Go!” someone shouts as two more loud bangs sound around me. I try to focus on something, anything but I’m too tired, I want to fight and open my eyes, but they just won’t open. I hear one last thing before everything descends into darkness again.
“I think we’ve lost them!”
31
Christian
I race from the house out to the car as it screeches to a stop.
“WHERE THE FUCK IS SHE?”
I grab hold of Terry’s shirt as he climbs out of the car.
“We lost them.”
“You said she would be safe!” I slam him into the closed door. “You were meant to be fucking watching her!” I scream as I pull my arm back to punch him, but Jason grabs me from behind and pulls me back. Sean and Maximus both help Jason as he takes out my legs and pins me to the ground as I fight them to get to Terry.
“Christian stop! There was nothing he could have done,” Sean yells above me but the red mist has descended and I have lost all control. The only thing I can see is the man who I trusted with the most important person in my life and now she’s gone and is having fuck knows what done to her. I want to kill him. Fuck all the years we’ve been friends or the times he has kept me and my brothers safe. He didn’t protect her and that is all that matters now.
“Calm the fuck down, this isn’t helping anyone, especially Jaz!” Jason shouts as I push up against them. I feel Jason leaning into me further so his mouth is near my ear. “Jasmine needs you to be level-headed and in control, not charging around beating the crap out of people trying to look for her!” he snarls as I feel my body slumping to the floor. Her name is the one thing that pulls me from the darkness. “Control yourself, if not for the rest of us, then for her. She needs you to be the strong one, the one to take control,” I feel Jason leaning back in. “Weneed you to be in control because we can’t get her back without you. Sort your shit out for your baby girl, for Jasmine.”
Jasmine.
The love of my life.
My sweetheart.
My baby girl.
My world.
I close my eyes and picture her smile, her laugh, and the way her eyes sparkle when she knows she’s being a brat. The last thing I see is the way she smiles when it’s just the two of us. When she looks into my eyes and knows how much I love her, how much I will always love her.
I take a deep breath and slowly let it out to focus myself before opening my eyes and looking at Jason.
“Okay.”
Jason looks at me for a moment. “You good?”
“Far from it but I’m in control.”
I pull myself to my feet and dust myself off. I turn to my brothers and see everyone out of the house. All our security is here, having received the notification that Jasmine has been taken.
“I want everyone in the dining room now!” I yell as I look at Terry and the guys behind him. “Get in there and prepare to tell me everything you know,” I order. They all nod and head inside leaving me outside with my brothers.
“We’ll get her back Christian; Jasmine knows how to defend herself and what to do to help us find her.” I turn my attention to Sean and nod before heading into the house. Not trusting myself to speak. Jason’s right I have to keep it together for my younger brothers who are feeling just as helpless as me.
Waiting inside the doorway, I find Mrs Brown hovering around like she doesn’t know what to do. This woman has grown to love Jasmine and I know she will be worried sick.
