Catherine's POV"Mummy" Luke yelled in excitement running towards me once I walked into the sitting room. "My baby, you are okay" I breathed out in relief, muttering the last part to myself. I dropped the little bag I had in my hand and crouched to his level, pulling him in for a proper hug. Oh, how I have missed him."Mum" he called out and I hummed in response not wanting to let go."Mum, I can't breathe" he choked out, making me let go almost immediately."I am so sorry my child, Mummy just got a little bit excited" I apologized, giving him a once over, checking for any sign of harm or attack."That's fine, I have missed you, you haven't visited since Grandma took me with her" he whined, his eyes sad."I know, my baby, I know but Mummy has just been so busy trying to make our lives better, I have not had any time to come here" I lied fighting the pain and guilt that rose to my chest as he nodded his head like he was trying to understand, to understand why his mother was just visit
Unknown's POV "Seems like my package was well delivered" I chuckled as I lit the cigarette between my lips. "You are a monster, a fucking monster" Catherine spat hatred swirling in her eyes. "Exactly the point, sweetheart" "I am going to kill you, just watch and see" she threatened pulling on the ropes tied to her hands. "Get it line, sweetheart, trust me, it is a long line already" I cackled enjoying the way her face scrunched up in pain as she tried harder and harder to pull the ropes. "I would advise you to give it a break or you would injure yourself so badly and then you would have questions to answer when you get back home" I cautioned. "Let me bother about that" she snarled. "And why will I do that, sweetheart? I took you unharmed so it is only fair that I return you unharmed" I clicked, taking a large puff of my cigarette. "Like you care" she shot, her jaw clenched. "You are right, sweetheart, I don't care, but we can act like I do right?" I said with a lop
Paige's POV"What do you mean the twins found it?" I panicked, already turning and heading towards Mum's room before anyone could answer me."Alex, Alvin" I called out frantically, pushing Mum's room door open."Mummy" they both yelled in unison running into my outstretched arms, the impact of the both of them on me at once, throwing me off balance a little."Are you both okay?" I asked pulling back a little to take a good look at them as they snuggled comfortably into me. They looked okay physically but the fear in their eyes couldn't be missed."There was blood everywhere, mum, everywhere" Alex spoke up first, his voice shaky."It looked so real, Mum, but Grandma said it wasn't real, that it was only a toy that Dad got for us," Alvin added, backing up his brother."Grandma is right kids, it's only a toy your dad and I got, it wasn't meant to scare you guys we are sorry, don't be scared okay?" I cooed, lifting my eyes to look at Mum who was staring at us with an emotion I couldn't re
Paige's POVI sat and watched as Lisa cried hard on Brandon while he held onto her tightly trying to calm her down. I am currently seated on Jace's lap while he sits on the sofa in the room, Jay stood at the corner of the room, his eyes also solely focused on the scene playing in front of us, Mum and Dad also stood together hand in hand while Carlos stood at the side with a confused looking Claire beside him, I don't what exactly is going on between them but I am sure that they are hiding something,"I am here now, please stop crying" Bradon consoled but Lisa didn't stop, instead her cries increased."I was so scared, so fucking scared" she cried, her tears soaking his shirt.I glanced at Jace and then back at them before whispering,"We should leave them to have their moment, they need it" "I agree" he whispered back, signaling everyone else which they seemed to understand quite quickly as we all filed out of the room."How did it happen?" I asked Jace once we were out of earshot, i
Paige's POV"Good morning, my princess""Dad?" I whispered, opening my eyes."Yes, my princess, how are you?" He asked, his voice soft."I feel so much better now and you?...how have you been?" I questioned."I am okay, taking it one day at a time" he answered."When did you get here?" I asked, noticing we were the only ones in the room."Late last night, you were already fast asleep so your Mum insisted we let you rest" he responded, stroking my hair."Oh, thank you, the drugs they gave me really knocked me out" "Jace said so," he smiled."Speaking of Jace, where is he?...and Carlos too?" I asked, pushing myself so I could sit up."They left to get you breakfast, they should be back soon" "That's good, I am famished" I groaned."Why didn't you at least tell your Mum about it?" Dad asked after a moment of silence."I don't know, with everything happening now, I didn't know how having a baby would make everyone feel" I sighed."You should never be scared about something like that, we
Jace's POV"Pregnant?" Karla repeated in shock."Yes, Karla, she is three weeks pregnant" I responded, as I struggled with the feeling of betrayal that filled me."But, why didn't you say anything?" She asked, still in shock."This is good news, the best we have even had in a while and you didn't bother to say anything?"She added shaking her head like she couldn't wrap her head around all of it."I know and I am sorry, I just..." Paige paused glancing up to look at me and then at the doctor."Please excuse us," I asked politely."Oh sorry, I will take my leave now" He quickly apologized before turning to leave.As the door banged close, I inhaled softly keeping my eyes trained on Paige who was trying her best to look everywhere but at me."You have a lot of explaining to do but for now I need to go check on Lisa and the kids" Karla spoke up, breaking the growing silence between us. She seemed quite agitated and curious a few moments ago to know what had happened and now she wants to w
Paige's POVEmpty...Blank...Peaceful... those were the feelings that came with the darkness and oh does it feel so good. I could make out hushed voices but the more I listened the louder they became."What do you mean she fainted?" A very familiar voice yelled, panic and fear in his voice."I don't know, one minute we were working and the other minute she was on the ground" another voice spoke up this time, a more feminine voice."This is fucked up and the doctor hasn't said anything yet?" A voice yelled again, sounding closer and more familiar with each word."No, not yet, he said something about her lab results coming in" the other voice replied. "They can't just leave us here in silence, I'm going to find out what's wrong" I could finally make out who had the louder voice, it was Jace, so I guess the other voice should belong to Mum, why did he sound so scared, am I dead? ~~~~I let out a groan as a sharp pain shot up my spine, the dis
Unknown's POV"Ahh, the sweet smell of victory is already knocking on the door" I laughed out in despair. "Don't you think so too, dearest?" I asked, smirking as I placed the tip of the blade on her neck."You are really a psycho" she spat out in a strong voice but the fear in her eyes betrayed her."I know, I know, you are so lucky I still need you around or I would have taken your head off for trying to defy me" I chuckled, the sickly smell of blood all around me fuelling my spirit."Fuck you" She shot, deep hatred buried in her orbs."Gladly Sweetheart" I smirked, turning my attention slowly to her little partner."But you on the other hand are very much of no use to me right now and since you decided to work with this little bitch here to lie to me, you will take the punishment for the both of you " I sneered walking closer to where he was tied up on the chair."Please, it doesn't have to be this way, I could try again, he is still unconscious anyways" He begged tears
Paige's POVIt's two months and two weeks today, since the incident and Brandon has still not moved a muscle. I could see Lisa losing herself slowly as she watched him by his bedside nonstop, morning, afternoon, night.She would just sit, watch and cry, nothing anyone said to her made any difference,it is like she has lost her grip. She only bothers to take her drugs and do the necessary checkups to ensure her baby is growing properly, even her feeding has become very poor despite all we have said to get her to eat. It is like life just stopped for her and I can't do anything about it.His condition was now affecting everyone, even Jace has become a shadow of himself. It is like everyone was slowly losing the hope they had once had Although he doesn't know that I know but I am usually awake when he sneaks out of our room at night, He would sit by himself for hours crying and blaming himself then he would sneak back in by morning before anyone else wakes up . The twins were also starti
