Paige's POV"Jace?" I heard someone gasp from the door and I quickly disentangled myself from Jace already cursing myself for letting things escalate so quickly,"What are you doing here?" Jace asked breathlessly, I slowly lifted my head, my eyes landing on Jace before landing on her petite figure by the door, Catherine, if anything didn't give us away the hard-on Jace was currently sporting definitely did the work,"I was looking for you" she murmured, a certain emotion in her voice I couldn't identify, "For what exactly, you shouldn't be here to start with, last I checked this is a family event and you are not family" Jace shot at her but I didn't miss the way he was using his body to protect me from her wandering eyes,"Your Dad invited me, he said Luke is family" she replied casting her eyes down to feign innocence but I didn't trust her,"You still have not given me a valid reason why you are here" Jace replied curtly,"I just wanted to inform you that your son is here, he is wi

Catherine's POV"You did what?" Mrs.Smith asked shock written all over her face,"I had to, Dad kept threatening to harm Luke" I defended,"And that was why you took him there, without his father's knowledge or permission?" she exclaimed,"Jay was here?" I questioned shocked,"Yes, now imagine how he felt when he found out that his woman and his child were at his parent's house trying to get his older brother to take responsibility for his child that he is fully capable of taking care of" she spat angrily at me, this was new, in all the years Mrs.Smith has been my caretaker she has never raised her voice at me not until now,"I was only trying to protect Luke" I tried to explain but she wasn't having it,"The same protection Jay has been protecting him all these years, last I checked if not for him Luke wouldn't even have been alive today or have you forgotten so soon?, how your father left you to die in the hospital, even after everything you have done to Jay he still keeps coming b

Jay's POV"You keep making it difficult for me, Catherine, I try to convince myself every single day that things would get better, that someday we could come to light about us, about our child but it doesn't feel like you want the same thing," I said in a calm but deadly voice, I could see the pain in her eyes but she needs to understand things have to change, I can't live like this anymore,"Don't talk like that please, that's my greatest dream right now but we have to be smart about this, one wrong move and everything we have worked so hard to build would be destroyed, you know it is only Mrs.Smith, the doctor who performed the surgery and the both of us that knows the true paternity of Luke and it has to remain that way till we can find a way around my father" she cried out, I wanted to believe her, I wanted to pull her into my arms and assure that everything was going to be okay but we both knew things were getting worse by the day, her father was getting more and more impatie

Paige's POVThere was nothing making sense at the moment, Jay had to be sedated because he was hell-bent on going to find Catherine in his condition, everyone was still confused about what relationship they had because it was obvious there was something serious going on between the both of them, I had Lisa and Brandon pick the children up from the Russo's, Luke included, I would be a lot more comfortable knowing there are with them than their grandparents as sad as it may sound,"Mrs.Smith right?" I asked the old woman who Grace identified as the housekeeper when she left years ago,"Yes, may I be of any help to you?" she answered, she looked really scared for Catherine, it was obvious how much she cared about her,"We were wondering if you could help us clear the air a little, before today, I was very sure Jay and Catherine didn't even know themselves besides her usual tantrums that she likes to throw at my office or my house, but as it stands now it seems there is more to this than

Paige's POV"I agree with you something is definitely wrong somewhere," Carlos said, I had to brief him on everything that had been going on for the past few days,"As it stands now, our only hope is Jay but that is if he will be calm enough to explain things to us" I sighed, we were presently heading to the kid's school to pick them up, and it took a while for Alvin to agree without throwing a tantrum and luckily Alex knows how to call his brother down, to be honest, they are bonding better than I thought they would,"What about the caretaker, she should have valuable information?" Carlos asked,"She doesn't have information on how to save Catherine but she seems to know whatever relationship Jay and Catherine have, she is insisting that we ask the right people, she said it is not her story to tell" I replied as my mind drifted to the conversation Jace and I had with Mrs.Smith at the hospital,"And Jace?" Carlos asked dropping his voice a little, he knew how sensitive any topic conce

Jace's POV"You know it isn't so fun being called by a strange number at the office that you were hugging a guy at the parking lot of a diner so close by" I spoke up my eyes fixed on the picture I was sent,"I didn't know I was not allowed to hang out with my friends" she replied walking towards her bed,"You are not allowed to hug random guys in random parking lots" I snapped angrily,"But I can hug them somewhere else right" she chuckled tucking a lock of her hair behind her ear,"Paige, do not test my patience, I will not hesitate to put a bullet through his head if he doesn't know his place" I snarled,"As my father or my brother?" she shot back,"Don't say I didn't warn you" I replied turning to leave,"Why do you keep doing this, what do you aim to achieve from all of this, you don't want me but you won't let someone else have me" she suddenly said her voice cold yet sad,"I have always wanted you, Paige, why would you even say that" I quickly replied halting my steps,"Don't li

Jace's POV"Do you think he would agree to say anything now?" Brandon asked, we were currently driving to the hospital, Jay is to be discharged today, he would have been discharged yesterday but he still wouldn't stay put,"I can't tell, we can only hope" I replied releasing a deep sigh, the conversation Paige and I had last night has been replaying over and over again in my head, I can't seem to focus on anything else, I have not seen her today and when I asked Carlos he gave me a short and curt reply of how she said something about visiting Grayson and Sofya, although I have a feeling she simply wants to avoid me at all cost and I wouldn't even blame her,"Any leads on Catherine?" He asked again,"Not yet but her father's reaction to her sudden disappearance marvels me, I stopped by his office yesterday and he didn't even seem moved by his daughter's kidnap, he looked rather pleased" I informed him, my mind going back to my encounter with Catherine's father last night,"Do you by an

Catherine's POVIt was bitch black everywhere, they didn't need the blindfold, probably why they took it off. The pain radiating through my body was strong enough to kill me but they didn't physically hurt me at least not yet, made me wonder why everywhere hurt so much, at this point I don't think I could stay here anymore or I might die. I fought to control the tears that threatened to fall from my eyes, I could hear hushed voices from outside but I couldn't make out what they were saying, the ropes around my wrists and ankles seemed they were meant to cut off my blood supply and not keep me put, what's with this people?The voices stopped and footsteps followed suit, they were coming, I can't take any more of whatever this is. The door suddenly swung open and I was greeted by the bright light from outside making me shut my eyes quickly, I slowly opened my eyes trying to adjust to the bright light, there were three of them and they all had masks on,"You know today is your lucky day

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

Paige's POV"Is that all?" I asked, sniffling as I glanced up to look at him. "No, I just need a minute" He replied in a blank voice, a look I couldn't read on his face.Taking Another deep breath, he continued before I could say anything else or ask about it," I am sure you are quite confused right now but I am quite sure if you keep going you will understand. After you left I finally decided within myself that no matter what once I see you again I will take my chances without hesitation. I had regretted keeping quiet all those years waiting for some stupid opportunity when I could have created one, so many moments I could have used, but a part of me knew I hesitated because of guilt" Guilt? "I couldn't forgive myself for watching everything that she did to you every single day without trying to help, my fear of losing my job was greater than my conscience and it still kills me over and over anytime I think about how foolish I was to have let it go on for so long. The day you l

Jace's POVThe silence from Paige was starting to get me really worried. It's been over two hours since the policeman left and yet she just kept staring at the letter without opening it, tears falling from her eyes."You can't tell what it contains without reading it, please I am right here with you whatever it is, you should know it wasn't your fault," I said softly trying to calm her down."You can't be so certain, he tried so many times to reach out especially after I moved in here, he had gone to my old apartment and noticed I wasn't there, and even with all his efforts I still refused to give him this address or even speak to him, at least as someone I consider my friend, he had found out I was living here all by himself and when he visited I sent him away like I didn't know him, he had his issues yes but he didn't deserve the way I treated him" She cried out, clutching tightly to my shirt."Please, stop with the blame, Paige, you just said he had his issues.

Paige's Pov"What do you mean by he's dead? I saw him two days ago at the mall and he was perfectly okay, health-wise at least, he can't be dead" I spoke up once I recovered from my shock."We are yet to find out exactly what happened to him but it looks like a case of suicide" The policeman replied with a look of sympathy."Suicide?" I exclaimed in shock, unable to believe my ears. "Yes ma'am...there was a letter we found at his apartment this morning during our search, the address contained in the letter led us here" the policeman informed me, fishing out an envelope from his back pocket."A letter? Why would he write a letter to me before killing himself?" I asked, whispering the last part to myself."Here, You can take a look for yourself, it is still sealed, we only got the address from the envelope," he said, handing the envelope which I received with shaky hands.I glanced at Jace who stood quietly and shocked behind me, his left hand placed on my waist for comfort. He nodded

Paige's POV"Good Morning" I greeted a bright smile on my face as I turned to face an already fully awake Jace."Morning Cupcake, hope you had a good night's rest?" He asked, returning my smile with a much brighter one of his."Yes I did, and you?" I asked back."With you right beside me, why not?" He said with a cocky smile wiggling his eyebrows at me.''Here we go again" I facepalmed."You can keep acting like you don't like it all you want but we both know you do" He stated proudly."Whatever let's you sleep at night" I muttered, sliding the blanket on my body off and placing my feet on the ground so I could san."Uhm..." Jace stuttered holding onto my wrist to prevent me from standing up."What's wrong?" I asked concerned"Nothing is wrong, I want us to talk" He answered, letting go of my wrist as I sat back properly giving him my full attention."Sure, why not" I answered calmly, I knew he had something to say once I woke up to him staring at me so intently in my sleep, it was ob

Paige's POV"How is Lisa holding up?" Jace asked, finally breaking the silence between us. He had his back to me as he rummaged through his closet probably looking for a short to wear to bed."She is struggling so badly, it hurts to see her this way" I answered putting aside my pride, it was of no use bearing any grudges when he only meant well."I can only imagine, coupled with her pregnancy, it must be really difficult for her," Jace said with quiet empathy."Mum took her to the doctor today, thankfully she and the baby are doing okay" I informed adjusting myself on the bed. I don't know how I ended up here with him in his room given we had just argued a few hours ago."That's good news, we can't risk anything happening to either of them, Brandon would never forgive us" he replied, a satisfied look on his face as he held up a black boxer staring at it like he had finally solved a puzzle he had been struggling with for years."Just put it on already and stop staring at it like you ju

Paige's POV "Are you okay?" Jace asked concerned. I took a deep breath before turning to look at him contemplating if I should just voice out exactly as I was feeling or let it slide. "I don't really know" I answered, might as well tell him what the problem is. We were quietly packed in front of the house, it was a few minutes past 6pm meaning Mom would have prepared dinner by now, but a part of me didn't want to go in."The incident at the mall with Leon keeps replaying in my head, there was something off about him and this is the third time he's given me this feeling, I had first noticed it at your parent's burial but didn't want to think much about it but now seems like every encounter that we have he always seems to give me worse feeling than the previous one. It was always like this when we first met but it didn't seem like anything to worry about until now" I continued. "Well, I have always had a very bad feeling about him, Lisa, and you made it see
