Chapter 37
Alex was sitting in a studio meeting room with some serious big wigs when his phone started buzzing. He turned it around. Unknown number. He didn't answer. "Why's your dickhead husband not answering?" said the man, Erin and Sara now figured out his name was Jake. "He's in an important meeting... He's not going to answer unless he knows it's me or the hospital" said Erin looking down. Jake grabbed Erin's phone out of her bag and started searching for Alex's number. He pressed dial with a gloved hand. Alex answered on the first ring. "Erin... Hang on... Excuse me for a minute guys... I'm sorry... E, Everything okay?" He asked softly as he walked out of the meeting room. "Erin? Are you there?" He asked. "No she's not... We've got your wifey and we've got Sara... Get over to Tegan's house... Do not call the cops... Check the content on the camera. Remember first sign of cops and they're dead" said Jake and hung up. Alex felt adrenaline rush through his veins as he sprinted out of the building. He jumped into his Audi and called Charles their security manager on his bluetooth car kit as he drove off. "Charles, it's Erin and Sara... Call Stu... They've been taken... I don't know... I don't know... Meet me at Tegan's house... Get Stu on the line and call me back. No cops!" he screamed. Tyres screeched as he sped down the street in a panic. He dialed Erin's number numerous times, then Sara's... Both went to voicemail immediately. Alex ran a couple of reds, cars were slamming on breaks and hooting. He slammed his hand on the steering wheel. "Fuck!" He yelled.
Jake and Susan each grabbed a girl and hastily led them to a van outside. Sara's injured hand screamed in pain from being in the awkward position behind her back. Erin limped. Both got shoved into the van violently. Susan got into the back with them as Jake drove off. Sara and Erin were both completely petrified and shaking with fear. Susan put a chloroform cloth over Erin's mouth. She struggled to get out of her grip. Sara kicked the blonde as hard as she could as she saw Erin's body go limp. "You little bitch" breathed Susan through her teeth. Sara kicked and screamed some more trying to escape her hold. "Shut them up!" shouted Jake annoyed. Susan had the cloth over Sara's mouth. Sara felt her muscles grow useless as darkness consumed her.
Alex screeched to a halt in front of the house and ran towards the front door that was still open "Erin! Sara!" He yelled panicked. Charles came running in behind him panting. "Where... Camera... Fuck! This isn't happening! Where's Stu" screamed Alex. "I can't get hold of him... Cell's off, can't trace him... Can't pick up a signal on the SUVs tracking device either." Alex felt his heart racing. Sweat beads formed on his forehead and he was breathing fast. He saw Erin and Sara's cellphones lying next to a camera on the dining room table. His hands were shaking as he grabbed the camera, switched it on and pressed play. Tears were streaming down his face as he looked at the photos of his wife and friend tied up. He flinched as he saw a man slap his wife and kick her in the stomach. Only his back was visible. He listened to message, all color drained from his face. "I'll fucking kill him!" he screamed.
Emy has been standing in the arrivals hall of LAX for the last hour looking for Sara. Her eyes scanned the room once more, her shoulders slumped as she sat down. She felt a pang of hurt in her chest. She held her phone to her ear. "Hi, it's Sara, leave me a message... Or don't" she heard Sara's familiar voice message. Something's wrong... Does she have the time wrong... Why's her phone off? Did something happen to Tegan?... Oh Sara... Why did I think this time was different... I knew it... Every chance she gets she runs... Emy shook her head, her throat felt thick with emotion and she hastily wiped the tears from her cheeks. Emy's mind was telling her to get on the next flight back to New York... This is it, the last straw. Close the door. But her heart protested, her heart told her to fight for Sara. Fight for the love of her life. She sat debating with herself for another fifteen minutes before calling another number. "Sonia! Hi, it's Emy... Good thanks... Do you perhaps know where Sara is?... Yeah, that was the plan but she's not here and her phone is off... I don't know either... It must be a misunderstanding... I'm getting a cab to the hospital... Okay, if you speak to her ask her to call me! I'll see you soon." Nervous energy was running through Emy as she stared out of the cab window. "Where are you Sar? Where are you?" she whispered.
