A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 6 You Seduced Me First

Emily had no idea that she had his number saved in her phone, nonetheless, she pressed 'call'. She waited on the line with great agony for what felt like eternity before someone answered the call.

"Hello, "

Answered Jacob, with his charming voice like a deep baritone of startling beauty.

Jacob's voice was like a ray of light in the darkness, breathing in new life to Emily's hopes. Too frightened to control her emotions, she cried out in an instant, "Ja...Jacob? It's dark and I'm very scared..."

Jacob was pleased to see her name pop-up on his phone, but as soon as he answered and heard her cries, Jacob's smile turned upside down, followed by a look of concern in his eyes.

"Where are you right now?"

"I can't get out, I'm in..."

Emily had not finished speaking before the battery of her cell phone died, consequently cutting their call short.

This had Jacob even more worried than he already was; he couldn't help biting his lip, nervously; then he dashed out the door in a hurry without even changing his clothes. He strode to the garage with the car keys in his hand; while starting the car, he tried to think where Emily could have been. Finally, he decided to drive to Hogan Company.

In the office, Emily stared blankly at her phone screen; with the disappearance of the only light in this dark room from her cell phone, her anxiety and fear of the darkness grew stronger and stronger.

"It's too dark here..." She hugged her legs, buried her face between her knees and began to sob hopelessly.

In her moment of desperation, she remembered Jack, who knew about her experience as a child, had never left her alone in such an environment before... And now she was wallowing in the darkness, while he was sleeping with another woman.

Emily's fear of darkness was increasing in small increments with the passing of every second. It was first time that she felt extremely eager to get out of the office right away; she couldn't endure another second of the darkness.

She thought of Jacob and wondered whether he would come or not.
