************

Jacob's POV...

I groaned in frustration at the noise interrupting my sleep, and pulled my pillow over my ear to block the noise. It took me some good time to get oriented and realise, it is past midnight and it's my phone ringing.

It's my phone ringing?!

I immediately woke up, my eyes wide open now, the first thought coming to my mind, Onika.

I looked at the screen, it was Onika indeed, at this time of the night? My heart got caught in my throat, as different types of unpleasant thoughts started coming to my mind.

I immediately picked the call.

"He--hello Ja--Jacob Ag--Agustin--" she started sobbing and her voice was completely hoarse as if she had cried her eyes out, I was not able to understand anything clearly.

"Agustin what Onika? please speak clearly I am not able to understand anything, did Agustin hurt you?"

I clenched my fist tightly, waiting for her answer, holding my breath. I was already making my way towards my car to get to her. I started driving in full speed towards Agustin's mansion.

"No he-he is not in his right mind! Please bring him back. He l-locked the door and I co-couldn't stop him, I couldn't stop him, I am so sorry." She sobbed hiccupping badly.

I frowned my brow in confusion, not being able to understand anything, what is going on?

"Bring him back from where? Where did he go? Please, Onika take few deep breaths and explain properly, I am not able to understand anything. I am on my way to there, just calm down. I will be there in five minutes."

"He--he knows, I don't know how! But he knows."

"Knows what Onika?" My patience was running thin now, as dread started gripped my heart from all sides, listening to her blood curdling cries.

"That I had a miscarriage." She said in a small voice, her voice so low that I almost missed it.

"WHAT?!" I stopped the car abruptly with a screech as it was about to deviate out of the lane.

My body went completely stiff, did I hear her right?

"Ja--Jacob are you listening to me" she asked in a small defeated voice.

I could feel my hands shaking in anger and pain, my vision clouding.

Someone please tell me this is not happening to Onika, I brought my fist to my mouth to contain my emotions.

"Jacob please come fast, are you listening to me?" She muffled another cry, bringing me out of my trance.

"I am coming Onika, I am almost there, okay? just hold on I am almost there" I said as gently as I can manage.

"Okay." She whispered brokenly.

I started my car in full speed, as soon as I reached the destination, I parked the car and ran towards her room, Kane tried to stop me, but I gave him the look that said, 'don't you fucking dare.' By the look on his face I can tell he understands the severity of the situation, he knows it already.

Her door was locked from outside, I opened it hurriedly, as soon as I opened the door Onika came running to me, grabbing my shirt she started saying something incoherent.
