Undeniable Attraction novel Chapter 46

My heartbeat turned frantic, I searched everywhere for Evie until I found her playing with Jess and Tess. My parents were behind them watching Evie, everything was fine. A horrible scene just played in my head, was I going crazy already. I couldn't wait for this day to end already.

Kel spotted me from the corner of his eye and came to meet me. He was smiling until he saw my expression and a worried look took over.

"What's wrong baby?" He touched my face staring at me intently.

He pulled me close to him, his hands encircling my waist. I rested my head on his chest taking in his scent and sighed.

" It was Carlos, he sent another message." I felt him stiffen, I didn't need to look at him to know that he was pissed.

" He's not going to come near Evie or you Shay, I won't let that happen okay? Please don't worry too much baby. I'm here for us."

Somehow his words relieved me and I sighed, I worry too much but I couldn't help it. I slowly started to relax as he kissed me on my head.

"Now smile for me, baby." An automatic smile appeared on my face and he smiled too.

" I love you Kel," I said looking up at him, a smile pulling at my lips.

"I love you too Shay." Just as we were about to kiss I felt a tug on my dress to see Evie and I chuckled.

" Uncle Jess wants to see my baby pictures." She excitedly said.

"I'd go get them," I said chuckling.

I smiled going upstairs to the room to get the album. I like that Evie was already connecting with his family. I took the album from the drawer making a mental note to get another one, a family album. I smiled turning to the door. My smile dropped as I saw the person in front of me. My heart was beating fast and this time I had every reason to. He was standing right in front of me. The album dropped to the floor and I screamed as he came closer.

He was in front of me in seconds, his hands roughly placed on my mouth stopping me from screaming. I scratched and bit his hands.

"Fvcking bitch." A harsh slap connected to my face causing me to stumble backwards. When I regained composure he was hovering above me a cloth pressed to my nose and that was the last thing I remembered.

KEL'S POV

I'm so glad that the birthday was going on well. I love the smile that I saw on Evie and Shayan's faces. I'd do anything to make them happy, I already planned a surprise for Shay after Evie's birthday, I'm going to give her the queen treatment for the rest of my life.

I looked around, we were surrounded by family and loved ones and that's what matters. Jess was making a phone call and Tess was talking to Shayan's mum, my mom was talking to Shay's dad and I liked that everything was fine between us.

"Hey bro, something came up. I'd have to go" Jess walked up to me and Evie pouted.

"Why do you have to go, mummy went to get the album," Evie whined.

"Something came up, I have to go. I'd see the album some other time, I'd make it up to you." Jess apologized but Evie was till hurt.

"Do you think you could stay a while till Shayan comes?" I asked not wanting Evie to be sad.

"I'm sorry Kel, I have to go." He said as his phone started ringing again. He mumbled an apology and left.

"Daddy, I want ice cream." I was carrying Evie waiting for Shay to come back.

"Sweetie, don't you think you've had enough already, your stomach would explode." I teased tickling her stomach.

"No ...it ...won't." She said in between laughs.

"What's taking Shay so long?" She should have been back by now.

"Maybe she can't find it," Evie answered.

I just hope everything is alright. "Princess, go stay with your grandma don't leave her side, let me go check on your mom."

She nodded and I placed her down, when Shayan's dad carried her that's when I went in to check on Shayan. I neared our room and the door was left ajar, I rushed inside to find an empty room, the album was left on the floor.

"Shay... Shayan...where are you?" I called out searching around for her.

I caught sight of a note on the bed that read: I already took my prize.

Heck, it was Shayan he wanted the whole time, not Evie. He played us.

I called the head of security at the gate. "Lock all gates, nobody leaves the estate."

I called the head of the bodyguard. " He has my wife."

I was trying to stay calm, trying to think right despite all the things going through my head. What do I do next? Where will he take her to?

I met the bodyguards. downstairs, I had assigned almost all of them around Evie, some were still watching her I don't know if he is still within the premises and what he could do next.

" Can someone please tell me how he managed to get in here and kidnap my wife?" I angrily demanded and none of them said anything.

" I fvcking paid you to protect my family, every one of them," I shouted.

"We could still get them." One of the bodyguards by the name of Toby spoke up.

" Let's check the CCTV." Another suggested.

We wasted no time in getting to action. We played the events that happened in the last one hour until we saw Carlos. He was discreetly following Shayan until she entered the room and he followed too, the next thing we saw was him dragging her out, she had passed out. The bastard drugged her and then it went blank. That was thirty minutes ago.

I dialled 911 and reported the case, I'd be damned if anything happens to her.

" I want everywhere in this house searched in case he has her somewhere around. Everywhere within the area also."

I went back outside to make sure everyone was alright. Tess was carrying Evie and she was rambling about something.

" You were gone for so long daddy, where's mommy?"

"Is something wrong Kel? " Tess asked.

I didn't know what to say, should I lie about it? They are bound to know that she's missing anyway.

" Something happened, I'd like for everyone to get back inside," I answered instead.

" But I'm waiting for mommy, she didn't bring the album."

I sighed massaging my temples, I was having a headache, too many things were going through my mind. I was fvcking pissed but I didn't want to lose my cool.

"Evie sweetie, can you go meet grandad for a moment."

She looked at me as if she was going to complain but probably seeing the look on my face she decided against it going to meet them.

"What happened Kel, where's Shayan?"

The sound of the siren wailed in the distance.

" She was kidnapped by Carlos."
