Christmas Eve soon arrived for the Dunlop-Hunts and this was going to be their first Christmas as a couple and the Christmas before their little girl was here.
Kate dropped Lacey off the Megan's apartment but had to rush off and Todd had to rush to court with one of his cases.
Megan sat on the sofa watching them both getting excited about decorating the apartment which now looked like when you looked directly into the sun and over the top with Christmas decorations.
"Want to decorate the tree with me" peter asked sounding like an over excited child.
"Yeah" Lacey dumped her bag in her room and began to help Peter decorate the tree and the rest of the apartment.
"Fancy coming food shopping Lace?" Lacey smiled and grabbed her shoes and kissed her mother on the cheek but Megan wrapped her arms round lacey and held her tight.
"Mum ... your sort of squashing me" Lacey said trying to pull away to catch her breath back.
Peter and Lacey left the apartment and got into the car but little did they know they were being watched and this person was clearly not after them but Megan Hunt.
The masked guy got out of the car and entered the building and took the lift to Megan's apartment and walked to her door and let himself inside and quietly closed the door behind him and placed his Key on the glass table and walked up behind Megan who had her back to the front door.
The man took out a handkerchief which was covered in a knock out gas which he placed over Megan's face as she struggled to fight for her life.
Megan's eyes began to close and she felt herself get weaker and weaker by the second before she fell unconscious holding her stomach to protect her little unborn girl. The guy lifted Megan into his arms and carried her out to his car and placed her carefully in the back off the car and drove off to his hidden place.
Lacey and Peter continued to happily shop unaware that Megan was now in the back of some strangers car heading down town Philly.
An hour later Megan began to open her eyes to take in her new surroundings. Megan tried to move but she was tied to a chair. Megan swallowed but began to cough because the gas dried her throat and she was finding it hard to breathe with her lungs filled with the gas.
"Welcome back Megan" Megan glanced round the room to see who was talking but the room was dark.
"Who the hell are you?" Megan ordered.
"You know me very well and we shared a special bond" the masked man moved closer to Megan.
"Why am I here, what have I done to you"
"I have always loved you Megan but you never loved me the way I love you" Megan frowned knowing she knew that voice from somewhere.
Meanwhile back at home Lacey and Peter walked into the apartment to see that Megan wasn't in the lounge so they both placed the shopping on the side and began to look for Megan.
Lacey looked in her room and the bathroom and Peter looked in their room but there was no sign of Megan.
"Did your mother say she was going out to you?" peter asked puzzled.
"No, she never said anything to me. Her purse is still here and her keys" lacey said looking round the lounge.
"Lacey, is this your key?" Peter held up a key which Lacey recognised but she couldn't place where she recognised it from.
"Peter some ones taken mom" Lacey began to panic
"It's alright Lace, I'll call Bud and Sam and they will find her" Peter dialled Buds number who answered on the first ring.
"Bud, its Peter. Someone's kidnapped Megan, please find her"
"We will don't panic, I will be right round with Sam"
Just as he had promised Bud was round with Sam and they began looking for clues with a team of forensic investigators.
"There is this key" lacey held up with her finger tips trying not to touch it.
"Ok, we will get it analysed. That's great thank you Lacey and we will get your mother back"
Mean while back in down town Philly the guy placed the cloth other Megan's face who was trying her best to turn her head away. The masked guy began to panic because Megan began to recognise him and the only thing he could think of was the cloth. Megan was now unconscious again.
Back at the apartment
"I know where I know the key from" Lacey began to panic.
"Who does it belong to" Peter asked tenderly to Lacey to begin to sob.
"It's ... My... dads'" Lacey began to sob harder so Peter wrapped his arms round Lacey and tried to soothe her and calm her down.
"Excellent lacey, do you know where he is?" Lacey's tears subsided but she still leaned on to Peter. Lacey shook her head.
"We have sent police to his home but no one was there" Sam was trying to encourage Lacey to try to remember anything significant.
"Well I mean he has been busy with this renovation for one of his clients, there's nothing there its empty" Lacey dried her eyes
"Ok, you are doing fantastic lacey, you and Megan must be so proud of her" Peter nodded
"Sam, have someone look up who Todd Flemming has been working with" Sam nodded and walked away.
Meanwhile back at the empty building Megan came to once again to see Todd her ex-husband smiling at her.
"Todd, what's going on? Why are you doing this?"
"I still love you Megan and I know you still love me" Todd moved closer to Megan until he was inches away from Megan before he place his lips on Megan's who tried to turn her head away from him but he was strong and she could feel him trying to prise his tongue into her mouth so she kept her mouth firmly closed trying to turn away.
"Why Fight it Megan, come on" Megan turned her head away and shut her eyes not wanting to look at him.
"I don't love you Todd, I did once but I love Peter now and look at me we are having a baby so I have moved on Todd and I thought you had" Megan barked at Todd who looked hurt.
"Very well but can peter love you like I love you Megan?"
"Peter would never hold me against my will to love him that's for sure. You're crazy Todd look at yourself"
"I bet he can never please you like I can please you or like I use to please you"
"You never pleased me Todd, in fact you are nothing compare to Peter who does please me" Megan felt a sharp piercing pain in her stomach which made her moan in pain.
"I won't let you go if that's what you're playing at with that fake pain"
"Shut...up .. Todd" Megan screamed as another pain pierced her stomach but this time it was more painful.
"What the hell is wrong with you, you never moaned like that in the bedroom so why now"
"Todd, please just untie me, I won't run away. I can't I mean I can't look at me" Todd thought about it for a while.
"If I untie you, you won't try anything got it" Megan nodded biting on her lip as another sharp pain rushed through her which caused her to moan out loud.
Megan's apartment
Sam came back with lead "Ok, we have a lead Todd has been the lawyer for Mr star buck of star buck coffee enterprises after a nasty allegation which hired Todd and Mr Star buck is in the middle of converting an empty warehouse to a large star bucks on cokeham lane west Narthbrook "Sam didn't need to say anything else.
"Lacey, stay here with the forensic team"
"No, I'm coming to get my mom back and someone call an ambulance just in case please"
They all climbed into Bud's car with the sirens blaring as they headed to the empty warehouse.
Megan was now in a lot of pain, Todd had untied her and helped her lay down and sat with her.
"Todd, you idiot my waters have broke" Todd looked down to see that Megan was in fact telling the truth.
"I'm sorry Megan, I didn't want for this to happen I just wanted to get you back" Megan didn't say anything to Todd.
"Peter where are you? I need you" Megan whispered as she held her now painful stomach.
There it was the sign she was waiting for the sound of police and possibly an ambulance too.
Once the police said it was ok for them to enter so Bud went rushing in first to see Megan on the floor holding her stomach in pain.
"Peter, you go straight to Megan, I've got Todd covered go..." Bud ordered.
"Don't you dear move Todd" Bud pointed his gun at Todd who put his hands up and Sam rushed over and cuffed him.
"Dad, how could you do this to mum" Lacey rushed past her father not even looking at him and rushed over to her mother who was doubled over in pain. Peter stood in shock looking at Megan not sure what to do until Lacey shoved past him and got on the floor with her mother and held her hand.
"Excuse me ambulance" the medic called out shoving past Peter and rushed over to Megan and lifted her on to the gurney and wheeled her out with Lacey holding her mother's hand.
"Peter come on" lacey yelled which brought him back to life and he came rushing over to Megan and held her and went into the ambulance whilst Todd was taken into custody.
Once at the hospital it was time for Megan and Peter to meet their little girl.
"Hi Megan, I'm Anne and I will be your midwife and you are more than ready to meet your little girl, so once nice big push Megan sweetheart" Anne said bending down to see that the she was crowning.
"Come on mom, you can do it" Lacey held her mother hand which was the worst thing she could have done because she was pretty sure it was now broken.
"Come on Megan baby you can do it" Peter was holding her other hand encouraging her every time she pushed.
"Well done Megan one last push and then the baby is here" Anne said holding half of the baby until Megan pushed once more.
"I can't do it; I can't "mean moaned with tears streaming down her sweaty and pale face.
"You can Mom please"
"I can't believe you did this to me Peter" Megan said before she did one last big push and the room was filled with a baby's cry.
"Would you like to cut the umbilical cord daddy" Peter nodded and walked over to Anne and cut the cord.
"You did it, you are amazing Megan" Peter walked back over to Megan and kissed Megan on the lips and she kissed back weakly.
"There is your healthy baby girl, who weighs 6lb 20z congratulations "Anne handed the baby over to Megan who looked at her little girl a sleep and comfortable in her mother's arms.
"She's beautiful mom and Peter; I love her and can't wait to hold her"
Megan handed their little princess over to Peter who held and kissed her forehead. Peter held the baby's hand which curled round his and held on tight
I hope you liked that and Yay finally baby Dunlop-Hunt is here and so I would like to hear your suggestions on baby girl names. I have asked before but I didn't get many answers so I will try once more. I would love to hear your suggestions. You can PM me or you can out in your review.
