I Keep Them On The Floor Beside My Bed

Christian...

Love reading your comments. Thank you for reading. 🥰

She couldn't see anything. She didn't know where they were taking her, but she knew she had to stay strong for her girls. A couple days ago, four people came and took her. Put a blindfold over her eyes and drove away. Even after almost a week, they still haven't reached their destination, and she was getting worried. She didn't understand the language they spoke, but she knew better than to say anything. She needed to survive.

Suddenly the van stopped, and she could hear her kidnappers struggling as they were arrested and taken in by the police. The backdoor opened and a man walked in. She didn't see him yet... the blindfold was still covering her eyes; her hands and legs were tied together. Christian's heart broke over the sight of his love like this. It wasn't fair what they did to her... why should they hurt her... taking her from their daughters was what hurt the most... he knew just how much she loved their girls...

She felt someone take her hand in their own. The touch was so familiar. She knew it was her love, immediately. "Christian..." she breathed a sigh of relief. He pulled her close and gave her a big hug, giving her all the love and comfort, he could. Slowly, he took her blindfold off. Her eyes were filled with tears. She cried in his arms; she couldn't be strong anymore. She knew she was safe with Christian. She didn't have to play strong anymore...

He untied her hands and ancles and she was finally able to move. "I peed myself..." she said, sounding more than little embarrassed. She didn't want her lover to know, but she didn't want those other people to know either... Christian chuckled. He didn't understand why she'd be embarrassed about this... especially with him... He took his coat of and wrapped it around her. It will help with the cold, and it will also cover her up. They walked out of the van.

"Where are the girls?" Lotta asked. "I don't know..." admitted Christian. He really didn't know. He left home as soon as he heard about Lotta. He sent some agents to search for the girls in Lotta's house, but they weren't able to find them. A messy house was all that was there. Still bearing signs of the kidnapping... "Did they take them with you then?" Christian asked, still unaware of anything. "No... I'm not sure they know I have kids..." Lotta admitted. She was happy about this fact. "Where could they go then?" he smiled, happy to know his girls weren't in the hands of those people. "Well... I placed some clues and things around the house, with instructions how to get to Agnetha..." hopefully they go there..." Lotta admitted. She didn't know how the girls would do... she never imagined them being this little when they'd have to do this... Lotta was asked a couple more questions about the kidnapping and soon she and Christian were able to go back home.

"Where are we anyway?" asked Lotta as they settled in Christian's car. "We're in Poland... I'm not sure where they were planning to take you... The team still has to do the interrogation..." said Christian as he began to drive towards Sweden. In all this mess, he forgot his phone at home... his work phone was stuck in the van where he dropped it... "Why are you here Christian?" Lotta asked suddenly. The whole shock was over, and she could finally think clearly... "I needed to get you and make sure you're safe..." Christian tried to avoid telling the whole truth. "Christian, HOW are you here?!" she asked. "I joined the Royal security when we broke up after Saga was born..." he finally admitted. He knew she won't be happy about that... She sighed. "At least it helped here, but..." she didn't manage to finish the sentence. She covered her mouth and Christian quickly stopped the car and Lotta practically ran out and proceeded to empty her stomach on the side of the road. Christian was next to her in seconds. He kneeled beside her and held her as she continued to throw up... "You're retiring," said Lotta once she was finished. She needed her love safe with her. They couldn't afford this kind of life anymore... especially because of their kids... they were their everything!
