Four hours later Ty was standing beside the bed watching his wife and kids sleep. They have been through a lot, especially his wife. She began that morning like any other morning. She and Miss Alice drop the kids off at school and Miss Alice then took her to class. She had an encounter with one of her classmates, she had wanted to talk to him about it but he was doing hands-on training so his phone was off so she called Christian instead.
After class, as she usually does, she went downstairs to wait for Miss Alice but instead found herself being grabbed and forced into the back of a car, where the men gagged her and tied her hands behind her needless to say she was beyond horrified but as scared as she was she never stop praying in her mind to God to help her.
Of course, she had no idea Caleb was tracking her. Hearing her retell the horror she went through almost killed him and all he could do was hold her as tightly as he could as her body trembled with the memory. And as shocked, dumbfounded, and suspicious as he was that his brother was secretly tracking his wife, right now he couldn't be more grateful to him.
"Is she okay?" Caleb asks from behind him. "Define okay," Ty said with tears in his eyes. "Right, stupid question." He said and turn to leave but Ty stops him. "Hey wait, I know I've said this about a hundred times since you arrive here but we really have no idea how all this would've turned out if it wasn't for you, so again, thank you, brother," Ty said hugging him.
"Sorry I didn't tell you that I was tracking her, I was afraid you would kick my ass, so…" "I know, and seeing as though none of us saw this coming, I probably would have. It's tearing my heart apart that I wasn't there to protect her but I'm very grateful that you were."
"Hey, as long as I live, I'll always be here for you and your family, brother," Caleb said squeezing Ty's shoulder. "I now know why you did but thanks again for bringing her," Ty said. "Thank Samson and his damn private jet." Caleb laughs. "Besides we couldn't have you quitting your training now could we, and according to Jason that was what you were just about to do before we got here."
"Yeah, but not if my kitten has anything to say about it, it amazes me just how strong this woman is," Ty said in admiration. "Gave you a stern talking to, did she?" Caleb laugh. "You can say that again, and I quote, no matter what life throws at us, I'm in no way shape, or form to even consider quitting this training and she made me promise," Ty said shaking his head.
"Good, that goes for all of us, now unfortunately there's also bad news, well depending on how you look at it but the police can't seem to link the kidnapping to Edwards," Caleb said with a snort.
"How's that possible? What about that text?" Ty asks. "According to him that could've been sent by anyone and it didn't help that the number that the text came from wasn't his personal number," Caleb explains. "Of course, it wasn't that would've been too easy but what I keep thinking about is, he already had Janice and didn't know you were tracking her, he had her at his mercy, so why send me that message and her photo? What was the point?" Ty asks.
"Well after you spoke to dad he called me back half an hour later, now he conclude that Edwards didn't just want to force us to take Amara back home, he also wanted to hurt you because you help take Amara from that house, now needless to say if we had return Amara to that house he would've killed her babies for sure and we think he was also planning on killing Janice, so if the photo didn't put you in a coma. Then losing your wife surely would." Caleb said.
"What the hell are we going to do about this lunatic? He's still free and planning God knows what next." Ty said in a worried tone. "Well he isn't the only one with a plan bro, what he doesn't know is that at first he was just an irritation to me but now he is on my hit list and I'm going to make his life a living hell." Caleb laugh.
"Brother I …." "Relax, I'm not going to cause mom or dad any additional stress but let's just say that when I'm done with him, he's going to wish he had confessed. Now Jayden will be here before I leave tomorrow, he'll be her personal bodyguard until you say otherwise, so just relax and enjoy this time with your wife and kids, I'll see you all at Fabian's engagement party. Caleb said patting his shoulder and leaving the room.
