Jacob Black - True Imprint, Jessley [best romantic novels in english .txt] 📗

didn’t have to wait long before two lines appeared quite clearly on the stick. “Two lines, what are two lines” I said to myself checking the instructions. “Positive, oh shoot, it’s positive” I said softly. I was worried, how was Jake going to take this I thought, I decided there and then I would push that to the back of my mind and carry on with my appointments for the rest of the day. Every so now and then I had to excuse myself to go to the bathroom and get sick, it was no fun.

Jake called me to go out to lunch with him, but I knew if I saw him he would see panic on my face, so I told him I was busy. Jake would know immediately something was wrong just by looking at my face.

When I got home that evening, Jake saw my face and knew something was bothering me. “You okay Kayla?” he asked. “Not feeling too good” I responded thinking I would have to tell him real soon. We had some dinner and when I thought it was time to break the news to him, Jake was busy with some business papers, so I thought now would not be the right time. I went up the room and got showered and got into bed, Jake soon followed.


Chapter 53

I woke up before the alarm and ran to the bathroom. Jake who got a fright at my sudden jumping out of bed caught me in the bathroom with my head in the toilet as I got sick. He sat at the end of the bath and rubbed my back and held my hair while I got sick. “Are you okay, can I get you anything?” he asked as I sat down on the floor. “No” I answered, I started to cry. “What is it Kayla, what’s wrong, please tell me?” begged Jake. “You’re going to be angry” I said as I got up to rinse out my mouth and brush my teeth. “Please Kayla, you can tell me, I won’t get angry” he asked.

“I’m pregnant Jake” I said, he stood there shocked, he didn’t move, he didn’t say anything. “Jake, did you hear me?” I called, which kind of brought him out of his shocked state. “What, but how, when?” he said all at once. “Whoa there” I said. “I’m sorry, I know it’s not what we planned, but it’s happened and it’s not entirely my fault” I answered.
“But that is not possible, we were safe, careful?” he questioned. “Not all the time Jake, there was a few times we weren’t exactly safe” I admitted. “No, this can’t be happening, we’re not ready, we’re not married” he said talking to himself as he starting walking from the bathroom. “Jake” I called to him, but he put his hands up in front of me, preventing me to get to him or to speak to him. “I can’t deal with this right now, I can’t think, I am going to go to work, we can talk about this later” he said and left me standing there.

I slowly sat down on the edge of the bath when I heard the front door slam closed. Jake was angry, why did I allow this to happen, I told myself and I started crying. I wasn’t up for going to work today, so I sent Trish a message to rebook my appointments for today. I went and made myself breakfast and decided I was going to visit Nana today.

Upon arriving at Nana’s place, she could see I was upset, so I told that I was pregnant, and that Jake and I had an argument when I told him about it and that Jake left the house angry. I sat and chatted to Nana most of the morning, I knew Jake must really be angry as he hadn’t phoned me at all yet. I left early afternoon and arrived at home, I put my keys and handbag down and felt like going for a walk, to clear my mind.

The air was warm outside as I walked to my favourite spot, the rock pool, so much was going through my mind, that I had reached the pool, the water looked so invited so I sat on a rock nearby and put my feet in the water. The tears started escaping my eyes; I just let it all go.

“He told me you were beautiful, but I didn’t know you were exceptionally beautiful” this soft voice from behind me made me jump. I looked up into this angelic face, “Alex?” I said horrified. “Can’t be, you’re, you’re…” I tried to say before I was knocked out.


Chapter 54

Jake’s mind was so preoccupied this morning; he tried very hard to keep his mind on his work. He was too upset and too angry to phone Kayla this morning, but he knew this wasn’t entirely her fault, but this is not how they planned it.

Jake’s POV:

I kept my mind on my work all day, feeling to upset to phone Kayla. I felt so bad having just left like that this morning, but I had to get out to and clear my head before I got too angry and Kayla was nearby.

By early afternoon I felt I couldn’t go any longer without speaking to her so I picked up my phone and dialled her number, it rang and then went over to her voice message. “Hey baby, please call me when you get this message” I ended my message. I called her studio but Trish said she had sent a message to say she wasn’t going to be in today and to rebook her appointments. This made me worry a bit, because I know Kayla wouldn’t just stay out of work; I knew I had upset her terribly this morning for this to have happened.

I tried her mobile again, still just rang and went over to message. “Kayla, please call me, I am really sorry, please call me back” I left a message. I then tried the house phone, but same thing there, no answer; I also left a message there. The sound of my phone brought me out of my trance, Edwards name flashed on the screen. “Edward?” I answered. “Jacob is Kayla with you?” he asked. “No, she’s not, why?” I asked. “Have you seen her today?” he asked. “Not since…since this morning, what’s with all these questions?” I insisted. “Alice saw something, they are here, here for Kayla, meet me at your place” he said as he ended the call.

“I have to go, will see you later” I said and dashed out the door, I ran home, I still didn’t have time to go by car, so I left the car in the parking area.
I got home, there was no scent, I entered the house, Kayla’s bag and keys were on the hall table with her phone beside, flashing. “Kayla!” I called out. “Kayla!” a little louder this time, I searched the house, but no Kayla. There was a knock on the door and Edward entered with Alice. “What did you see Alice?” I asked frantically. “It’s not very clear, for some reason I can’t see Kayla as clearly as I could before, almost like with you” she said trying to see if she could see anything. “Figures” I answered. “She was near water when he came to her, he looks familiar, he looks like Alex, he took her, but I can’t see where he has taken her, its like she is blocking me” Alice said.

“I am so sorry Jacob, I don’t know why I can’t see her too clearly, I don’t understand” she questioned her abilities, apologising. “Kayla’s pregnant” Jacob replied with pain in his face.
Edward phoned Sam and told them of what has happened. They arrived shortly afterwards at Jacob’s place, Embry advised them of the scent he had come across, but they were going in all directions. They immediately went out and searched the areas; Alice tried to see if she was able to see anything more.

I then made my way over to Nana’s place to see if she knew of anything, or the possibility of where Kayla might have been. She confirmed that Kayla was with her this morning and was very upset, that just broke me. I just collapsed onto Nana’s sofa and cried. “What is it my baby” she asked, so I explained that Kayla was missing and she was pregnant.

It was getting dark outside and everyone was searching for her. Kayla was no where to be found, Alice managed to catch glimpses of where she was, she could only tell me it was dark and dirty and it seemed that Kayla was asleep.
I was at my wits end and I couldn’t control myself anymore, I burst into my wolf form and ran, I followed the scents, Kayla’s ended at the rock pools and nothing more. We searched through the night.


Chapter 55

Kayla’s POV:

My eyes fluttered open, I was in a dark place, I tried to get up but my head hurt. I rubbed the back of my head and felt a lump there. “Mmm, don’t know what he saw in you!” a woman’s voice startled me from the dark. “Who are you, what do you want, why am I here?” I called out frantically; she came out of the shadows towards me.

“Sweet revenge!” she whispered. I got up and staggered a bit, I was trying to feel my way around with the minimal light that was coming through some cracks. I felt myself being grabbed and was being flung across the room, my head hit something, “aargh” I screamed and I tried not to pass out from the pain. Something wet ran down my check, next moment she was in my face, running her finger down the blood that was running down my face and brought it to her lips. “Sweet” she hissed in my face.

“No!” came a man’s voice. “You are not to harm her!” he said to the woman, he moved so fast towards me as she moved away from me. He reached down to touch the blood on my neck now, he put his finger to his lips and closed his eyes, like savouring a fine wine. “Mm, tastes good” he whispered.

“Alex please, don’t, please” I pleaded. “Alex, oh no my dear, I am not Alex, you and your furry and vampire friends killed my brother Alex, I am Alaine, Alex’s twin brother. My brother found me and told me all about you my dear Kayla” he said as he whispered near my ear, sending cold chills up my spine. “He sent me this letter in event to his death” he said holding up what looked like an old book. “He loved you deeply and wanted to make you his mate, but you had him killed” he added.

“What do you want from me then?” I shouted at him. “I want you to suffer as you made my brother suffer under your love” he said softly grabbing my arm, digging his nails into it and drawing blood. I screamed as he picked me up by the arm and I heard it snap. “Argh!” I screamed as he hit me across the room and I slammed down on the floor. My arm was broken, I could feel it bent in an awkward position, but added to that was my leg, it was also broken now. He made me stand up by holding me by my neck. “You will beg me to kill you, I am going to make you suffer” he said as he started
