Nine months later
Jenny gritted her teeth as she pushed with all her might as the sharp pain knifed through her middle, then she relaxed and took several deep breaths. Nick was hunched behind her supporting her weak body with his, her hands gripped at his. He murmured words of encouragement in her ears while the doctor worked between her raised knees.
She screamed in agony as another sharp pain gripped her making her clutch tightly at her husband's hands.
"One more push, Mrs. Kazan, I can see the head, now relax and take small short breaths, yes like that, now push, here we are. You have a perfect little boy" the doctor cut the cord he raised the baby to his parents' eyes before giving it to the nurse to clean and measure.
"Beautiful, is not he?" Jenny eyes welled with tears as she looked in wonder at her squirming son in the hands of the nurse.
"I think his looks will improve" Nick teased his wife
"How dare you say that about my son!" Jenny chided.
"Our son, Jenny. Our son" he corrected gently as he looked at both his wife and son as he felt overwhelmed with his emotion.
Suddenly Jenny body tensed in pain as she felt the need to push again.
"It seems that the other one is on the way" the doctor announced.
Nick and Jenny knew that she is carrying a twin, as the sonar showed in the early months of her pregnancy. They both were exhilarated about that.
The emerge of the second boy didn't took much time and soon the two squirming boys were placed in the arms of their doting parents.
Nick felt his heart is about to burst from happiness, as he looked down at both his wife and his newborn twin with pride.
"Thank you, love. You made me the happiest man on earth" he said as he gathered all three of them in his arms as he vowed to himself to do all in his powers to love and take care of them as long as he lived.

It was three months since the twin were born. Jason and Antony they were a bliss, Jenny thought, but she was so tired for they took all her time, she barely has time for anything else even for Nick, she sighed in exhaustion as she got out of the nursery quietly trying not wake them up.
Although Nick insisted on providing the babies with two nannies but she fussed over them all the time interfering with every small detail to Nick's irritation.
Nick was very irritated at Jenny attitude towards the boys. She spent every waking hour with them and through the night too as she insisted on nursing them herself, which meant waking up every two hours to do so, they have no time to spend together at all.
He gritted on his teeth as he remembered the occasion when he tried to woo her to bed and when they were in the middle of it, one of the babies started crying soon joined by his twin brother making her jump out of the bed to see to them. Of course by the time she was back she was so tired she fell asleep.
He tried to convince her to go in a vacation, just the two of them together but she refused saying that the boys are so young to be left alone. He was so angry that he stormed out of the room slamming the door behind him.
Her obsession with the boys is driving her and him crazy and he has to do something about it before it gets out of hand, Nick thought determinedly.

Jenny drifted to a tired dreamless sleep once hear head touched the pillow. The day was so tiring, the boys didn't stop crying all day long, and whenever she succeeded in quieting one the second took over from where his twin stopped. She felt as if she was in a marathon.
She was startled from her sleep as something disturbed her, she looked around trying to find out what woke her up, but the room was dim and quiet. She sighed and tried to go back to sleep, but suddenly a strong hand was on mouth while the other pushed her on the bed, turning her quickly to her stomach.
Jenny's eyes widened in horror as she tried to struggle against her attacker, but she was not up to him as he shoved her on the bed.
For a moment the hand was removed from her mouth, but before she had the chance to scream a piece of cloth was shoved inside her mouth and tied securely behind her head followed by a blindfold which made her frantic. Her hands were tied behind her back and her feet were secured together making her completely immobile.
It couldn't be happening, Jenny thought in fear as she felt her attacker carry her over his shoulder and moving out of the room and through the deserted house at that hour of the night.
Nick! She thought in despair. Where was he? She felt herself being deposited in what seemed like the backseat of a car, the door was closed as the man rounded the car to take his place in the driver seat.
Where was he taking me? She thought as she felt the car moving. She tried to remove her bindings but they were so tight, she sagged in despair.
Maybe he is not going to hurt her, maybe he will call for ransom and then she will be rescued. She thought of her babies and panicked, she didn't want to die and leave them while they still needed her. Her eyes primed with tears as she thought of her kids.
The car slowed down and he was out of the car, he pulled her door open and carried her gently in his arms. Jenny shivered as she felt the cool air of the night at her meager clad body.
