Jennifer-Jayden romantic moments

"What did I do now?" Jayden asked.

"You need to ask, what you didn't do! If you did not abduct me from my house without my knowledge and tell my parents that we are married, then do you think any of these would have happened?" Jennifer complained.

"I am sorry, I didn't mean to. But do not worry, I promise I will find all of them. Anyway, did you talk to your grandpa about this?"

"Yes, but he asked me to stay away from this. How can I stay away? Why does no one understand? It's my parents we are talking about!"

Jayden held Jennifer's hand and patted her shoulders. Then he pulled her into a hug. At first, Jennifer tried to remove herself from his grasp but stopped when he said,

"Please, give me your strength. I am tired. It has been years, I haven't slept properly. I need you for today!"

"You need to stop saying that you need me all the time. It gives me creeps!"

"Oh! Last time when I messaged, I didn't mean to type I need you but instead, I need to talk to you…"

"Whatever, I don't care! Just don't say that…"

"Say what? I need you..."

"Stop it!"

"I need you..."

"I said stop!"

Jayden hugged her even tighter and blew near her ears. He said in a husky voice,

"I need you now…"

"Shut up," Jennifer pushed him away and ran into the tiny bedroom where Elina was sleeping. Jayden just looked at her retreating back with a smile.

Her heart was thumping against her chest and she held the closed door for support. Her legs turned to jelly and she sat down for a minute before rushing towards the bed.

She just cannot have a civil conversation with Jayden. He would always bring it back to that… I mean that… You understand right??

'Why am I even talking to myself? Jenny, you have definitely gone crazy because of talking to Jayden for long. You need to distance yourself from him as soon as possible. Maybe once I find my parents, I will tell them that this was all a drama and she does not intend to go on with this marriage anymore. What would Jayden say, if I asked him for divorce once again? Will he agree… well... well, who cares if he agrees or not! I know my drawback, I don't want to bring anyone down along with me. Especially after that stabbing incident. I do not want to hurt anyone anymore. I need to stay far away from everyone.'

Once she made up her mind, it became easier to calm her nerves. She dozed off the next second and walked slowly into the dreamland. Jayden, who came to check on them, saw Jennifer and Elina sleeping like a baby while the blanket was kicked down on the floor.

He took the blanket and covered them both. He walked away slowly to catch some nap before the landing. When he saw the time on the watch, it displayed four in the morning. It would at least take three more hours before landing.

When Jennifer woke up, she found herself lying on a soft bed. The room was almost empty other than a nightstand with a lamp. She looked around and couldn't understand how she came here?

Weren't they flying to Jayden's father's place? What happened? Suddenly a thought struck her and she checked her pockets, it was still there. She ran outside the room only to hear Elina's cheerful voice.

"Where is Jayden? Where is he?" Jennifer shouted.

"Good evening, Jenny! Come here, we are just enjoying the sunset. Look how amazing it is!" Elina shouted from the deck while standing near the rail.

"I asked where Jayden is?"

"Oh! Our sleeping beauty is already awake! Good, I made some special herbal tea for you! Would you like to give it a try? It might ease the headache which you are having right now!" Mike came out with a cup of tea in his hand.

Jennifer took it and smashed the cup on the floor.

"I am asking once again, where is Jayden?" She looked at both Elina and Mike with red eyes.

"Jennifer, Jenny relax. Take a deep breath and try to control your anger." Mike said while trying to approach her.

Looking at the sudden movement near her, Jennifer turned even angrier.

"Why can you not tell me where Jayden is? Did he leave?"

"Yes," Elina spoke in a low voice, hardly audible.

"Then why did you not wake me up? Why?"

"I tried to but you just won't wake up. Jayden said you might be tired from the long journey and let you rest for the day. He even said it might be because…"

"Because of what?"

"Because...because you might be pregnant. So this trip might be dangerous for you and your baby. So he asked me to stay behind and protect you." Elina finally said after lots of hesitation.

"Me? Pregnant? Are you crazy?"

"At first I thought it might not be true but after thinking about how you both talked earlier... I realized that it might be true. Anyways, it has been more than three months after your marriage. So, isn't it expected?"

"What? What is expected? He made me sleep using my own sleeping drug and made a fool out of you to go by himself on this rescue mission… How dare he! And on top of that to lie that I am even pregnant when nothing actually happened between us! He had the nerves to say such a thing about me…" Jennifer then turned towards the shaky man who stood far away from her.

"Do you know where he went, father-in-law?"

When Jennifer asked that Mike almost fainted. He never expected himself to land with such a fierce daughter-in-law. One was as sweet as sugar and another was as spicy as hot pepper. He just blinked and ran inside the house.

"See you scared our father-in-law very badly. You really need to work on your temper. Not everyone will be like me who can put up with your temper!" Saying that Elina walked inside to calm down Mike.

Jennifer just looked at the orange sky with frustration. He promised her that he would bring her along with him. Then how can he leave her and go by himself?

She just cannot sit down here and enjoy the sunset like everyone else. She needs to do something and that too immediately. She picked her phone and messaged Jayden.

'Where are you? How dare you?'

A reply came back within a few seconds.

'I will reach the place in twenty minutes. I am sorry but this is too dangerous a place for a pregnant lady to accompany her husband too.'

'Who is pregnant? Have you lost your mind?'

'Maybe not now but in the future, you may!'

'You...You... You...I hate you!'

'But I love you!'

'Where are you? I am coming over there. Message me the coordinates!'

'No! I will be offline in a few minutes. I almost reached the safety zone. I will contact you once I am out with my brother.'

'Then what about my parents?'

'They are not here. They are being kept in some other place.'

'Where is that place?'

'I cannot tell you right now. Do not worry, I will make sure to find them and bring them back. But not right now! We need time and proper planning.'

'Just send me the location. I will take care of my business. You do not need to worry about my parents.'

'No'

'Send me the location'

'I am almost here now! Bye.. talk to you later sweetheart!'

'Do not test my patience, where are my parents?'

She did not receive any response even after waiting for a long time. All she could think of was how useless she has become! Why does Jayden know everything? After trying for so long she still could not find anything until now. It has been months. Either they don't know what happened to her parents or just no one wants to tell her the truth. Are her parents even alive or not?

She squatted down and started to cry. The next second Elina and Mike rushed towards her and held her.

"I read that pregnant ladies have mood swings but I did not expect that it would be so much worse," Mike said.

Jennifer lifted her tear-filled face and glared at him.

"I am not pregnant. How many times do I have to repeat myself?"

"I never read anything about self-denial in those books. Maybe I need to buy some more books and read to get clarification." Mike said.

"Maybe she went into shock after knowing that she was pregnant. She needs to take some more rest and then she will be better. But first, you need to eat something. Remember you are now eating for two people. There is a small baby growing in your tummy. You need to be extra careful. Do not run like how you did today. You need to walk slowly and steadily." Elina joined Mike and irritated Jennnifer.

"Yes! You should stay in the downstairs room, as climbing up and down might not be too good at this stage. I prepared the herbal tea once more for you to drink. Have some and then eat to the fill before going to bed." Mike said with affection and even patted her head.

"Mike, didn't you say you have some books related to pregnancy? Can you lend it to me? I want to read them and take care of Jenny. Who knows it might come in hand when I get pregnant later!" Elina asked.
