The Kidnapped Bride

"I-I..wasn't able to call you because of some reasons. Please forgive me...Please...." she heard the deep broken voice from the other side, which was enough to shatter her heart at this time.

Her lips parted but no voice came out. In fact, she has to take the support of the nearby shelf, to not let herself fall on the ground. Tears started to appear in her eyes when she called in a mutter, "M-Max....."

"I'm sorry for my love, please forgive me. I was entangled in the work assigned by my father and I had literally no time to...call you. I was just packed up with some issues.." His voice was enough to give her the courage itself.

She had no heart to be upset with him, despite him not calling for so long. For once, she had purely made up her mind that she won't even see his face anymore, with such betrayal from his side. Did he just forget about his family after going back?

She had thought so, but who would have guessed that she was wrong. Just a few words of his and her heart are on the edge of melting. It had started to melt like ice cream on being exposed to the sun.

Closing her eyes, she sat on the nearby chair to stable herself. "Y-You have any idea....what all I thought?"

"I can imagine. Please, forgive me..." he once again asked with the words coming out but she had the demand to put forward, she had a beard for so long now. "Sorry won't work!"

"Alright, tell me, what does my love want now?" Max's sweet voice made Veronica sulk her emotions back in her mind. He has called her after so many weeks, she should be willing and just ask him for what she wishes to, without any hesitations.

With the determination that was flowing through her eyes, Veronica took a deep breath and finally opened her mouth to say, "You are calling me there, no matter what. I'm traveling there with Jack, and if you say no, Don't ever call me again!" She had given an ultimatum not thinking twice what it might cost him.

She doesn't care, she is ready to reside in a situation for him. For her, her love was the priority rather than the situation. To give her child a proper home was her dream, rather her comfort zone.

Somewhere, Veronica had expected a bit of silence from his side. Or maybe a reluctance as well. But what she came across was nothing similar either. "That was what I was going to talk about. I had already made all the possible arrangements. I will be sending you the tickets and your visa. So, you can come now with our little bunny."

"Really?!"

At this point, Veronica was already above the moon. The excitement level was reaching up to her peak, where there was no scope of calming herself. She jumped on her feet with her eyes filled with immense joy, "You aren't kidding with me right?"

"Absolutely not, my love. You can travel here, be by my side as soon as possible now.." despite him calling her after one month, all her fury was taken over the happiness that had surrounded her.

Finally, she will be traveling to his state....to his birthplace.

Hanging up the phone, she went straight to Jack's room, finding him still playing with toys. Without thinking twice, Veronica came there to lift him from the ground and pressed him against her chest, as if he was any other gem.

"Oh...mommy... what has happened to you?" he can't help but ask when he saw his mother's eyes were already glittering. He had seen her moon as if her jar of happiness was already overloaded now.

With The smile reaching up to her ears, Veronica planted a kiss on Jack's cheeks before she finally blurted him, "Jack, my baby, we will finally travel to father! Are you happy?"

On hearing the same, Jack hugged his mother to give her a small kiss on her cheek with his innocence still taking over this entire mind, "Mommy has no idea how happy Jacky is! We will see daddy!"

"Yes! We will see daddy!"

However, only if the two of them had any idea how big of a secret was hidden from both of them which will ultimately turn their life up and down, change their status in the new pace entirely....

….

The time had finally arrived, and both the mother-son duo reached the Smith State. It was not a long flight, enough to manage with a toddler for her. While Veronica was still not able to come out of the excitement of meeting Max, Jack had somehow contorted himself after seeing his mother's reaction.

A two-year-old child was still mattered, rather than his mother who was going overwhelmed with the emotions.

Coming out of the airport, their gaze went straight to Max, who ran up to them, taking both of them into the bearhug. A tear escaped from Veronica's eyes where she could finally feel the same embrace....same fragrance of his which was she craving for.

"I missed you so much..." she muttered in between her breath, when Max planted a kiss on her forehead, "You have no idea how dull it was without you both.."

"Daddy! What about Jacky?" Jack, who stood down, made a pout. Folding his hand into the angry expressions, they both finally broke the embrace when Max bent down on his knees before he opened his hands, "Won't Jacky give father even a hug?"

"But daddy hugged mommy first!" Jack answered, still keeping the same annoyance. But it made both of his parents giggle as Max answered, "You know that because of your mommy, you are there in the world? Hmm?"

Having slight blush on his cheeks, he was finally able to overcome the anger before finally landing himself in his father's hug. It brought the same feeling, the feeling of secureness and being fearless that his father depicted.

A bright smile was plastered on the family of three's faces, which they carried along with the, "So, are you going to go home, or you will get all the love for us here only?" Veronica asked with tease when Max nodded his head.

Signaling her, he brought out his car before he kept their luggage in the back and came himself on the driving seat. While Jack was made to sit behind, it was Veronica who asked when they had hit the road.

"How Long will it take for us to reach home, Max?" Veronica asked with the still smiling face when Max had to gulp the saliva on hearing this. Taking a deep breath, he told her, "We aren't going home but...hotel, V."
