Chapter 528 - Die together (1/2)

The couple stayed in Jacob's room for the rest of the day. They lay in bed, J felt drained and exhausted, she fell asleep in Jacob's chest.

After the meeting with Jack Ogden, Chairman John went straight to Loghouse in Naupaka Mountain to meet up with President Martin. Jacob knew that they were already planning something. He wanted to go with his father but he wanted to be with his wife more.

When J was awakened, it was already dark outside. The room is dark except for the dim lights coming from the wall sconces. The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes is the face of her husband. God! She can't imagine waking up without this sight in front of her. She would kill just to be with him.

She reached out to touch his face. She knows that he is awake. She can tell by his breathing. She leaned closer to touch his lips with hers. It was soft and tempting. ”I love you.” She said in a hushed voice.

Jacob heard it and he suddenly opens his eyes. He should be happy to hear those words but why did he felt scared. He is frowning while staring at J. She rarely expresses her feeling and emotions in words. She is not that type of person. Then why did she suddenly said those words? Is she saying that for the last time before she leaves him? He is being paranoid.

His arms tightened around her body afraid that she will leave.

”You are not leaving me. Right? You are not saying those words because you are leaving me?” Jacob was fearful and it pains her seeing him like that.

J shook her head. ”No. I won't.”

But that was not enough. Jacob could still feel that fear in his heart. ”They'll have to kill me first before they could take you away from me.”

J shuddered at the thought. ”Jacob...” She raised her head to look at him. She hates it when he talks about death.

”I know, Honey. But... I've never been this scared in my life. I can't imagine my life without you. I know you don't want me to talk about death, it's bad luck. But, taking you away from me means they will be taking my life as well.”

J was touched by Jacob's words. She felt her heart melts, she wanted to say that she felt the same way. She doesn't want to be separated from him. She'll slowly die without him. She snuggled closer to his body and buried her face into his chest.

”I won't. I promise I will never leave. They cannot take me away from you. If you die, I'll die with you.”
