My Evil Boy Toy

"Jayden?" I whispered as I slowly opened my eyes.

I felt someone hold my hand and whispered.

"Love, I'm here." He said.

"I see you." I uttered and smiled at him.

He looks stressed and there are dark circles in his eyes. His hair was messy and his shirt was opened up to the third button, exposing his chest.

He kissed my hand and put it on his cheek. There was a tear in his eye.

"I thought I lost you." He whispered. 

"I would never leave you didn't I promise you that?" I said smiling.

"You should rest. You've been hurt a lot." He said.

"I don't want to close my eyes. I want to stare at you all day." I murmured.

He didn't say a word and tears fell from his eyes. He sighed over and over.

"Love, it's not your fault. Don't blame yourself. It was my father who did all this." I said.

"Did he hit you?"

I nodded, sadly.

I saw him gritting his teeth and I could sense he was mad. I felt the pain when he slapped me but my heart was crushed because he was my father.

"Did you meet him?" I asked, curiously.

"I didn't. When we got there the whole area was abandoned. The Forelli Mansion has been deserted. The tower where you've been held captive was at the cliff a few minutes away from the mansion. We didn't find anyone. When I went inside the room, you weren't there anymore. I saw the shattered glass and the blood so I was really terrified. Thinking that you were taken by him or worse, he already, you know." He said.

I know he thought that father took me far away or killed me so he was scared. He had a trauma when he saw his mother got murdered so it's natural that he would feel afraid of losing another person he loves.

"What happened? How did you get out of the tower?" He asked.

"I was looking for a way to escape when I heard voices outside the room. I tried to listen but they were distinct voices, then I heard a loud sound like someone had just collapsed or was knocked unconscious. But when I looked at the peephole I couldn't see anyone. Then I heard that someone unlocked the door. I waited to see if anyone would go inside but no one opened the door. The shattered glass was my doing. I used it to untie myself but it cut my wrist. My injuries were from the thorns in the forest and I fell on the bed before I went out of the tower, my ankle got broken. When you found me, I fell down from the slope. I honestly thought I was going to die."

Just thinking about dying brings chills to my whole body.

"Don't you think it's odd? He just left you there. Do you think he was the one who let you escape?" Jayden commented.

"I don't know. We argued then he left me saying he'll give me until morning." I said.

Jayden frowned. I didn't tell him the last conversation I had with my father.

"What do you mean? What did he tell you?"

I sighed and looked at him. Then I slowly sit up. He helped me and adjusted the bed to recline it.

"He told me stories about my mom and your mom. My mom was his first love from what I understand but she ran away with Benjamin. Your mom was his childhood friend and he knew about his relationship with your father when they got engaged. He said he's okay if they continue their relationship but he asked your mom to still marry him. Your mom didn't like it and ran away with your dad. The Mafia, especially Matthew Forelli's father, ordered to hunt your family and killed your mom. Father said he doesn't have a choice." I said, looking at him to see his reaction.

"So did you believe him?" He asked.

"I don't know, love. I asked him the reason why he would still want to kill you if he killed your mother but he didn't answer. I accidentally told him about Caden then he suddenly wanted me to tell him where he is. I couldn't understand why but I didn't tell him because I was thinking he was going to hurt him. He got mad and slapped me on the face."

"I will kill him. I'm sorry Peggy but I don't think I could forgive him this time. He kidnapped and hurt you. Next time he might hurt Caden. He's a dangerous man." He said.

I know Jayden has a point. Father already did a lot of evil things and he should have been punished by what he did.

"I understand. I won't force you to forgive him. From the moment he decided to kill your mother, it was already unforgivable. But thank you for trying. I know you did it for me." I said, smiling at him.

"If you were taken elsewhere by him or hurt you like what he did to mom, I am willing to go to hell so I could kill him." He said with gritted teeth.

I squeezed his hand and stared at him.

"I'm here in front of you. I'm alive. Seeing you in front of me makes my heart beat. As long as you are waiting for me, my heart will never stop beating." I whispered.

He leaned forward and gently pressed his lips to mine. I felt his lips tremble and tasted something salty. He was crying. I felt my tears flowing in my cheeks.

We both felt the same way when I was taken. We thought we would never see each other again. We were scared.

When he pulled away, he leaned his forehead into mine.

"I don't know what I will do without you. I was so scared. I felt like I was losing my mind. I was thinking what I will tell Caden if I come home without you. Peggy, we'll be together forever right? I want to be with you in this life and the next." He said in a gentle voice.
