Paige's POV-The Save (part one)

"Paige, Can we talk?" Liam requested as I stood to leave the sitting room, apparently Mum insisted Jace and Carlos should come up with the perfect plan and get back to us in three hours so they were excused and Mum claimed she was hungry and needed to eat something quickly but I am pretty sure she is just avoiding giving Liam the chance to even speak to her leaving me all alone with him,

"About?" I asked in a monotone voice making sure I didn't sound so rude,

"Please just sit" he pleaded tapping on the space beside him, realising a sigh I sat back down on the sofa opposite him maintaining my distance,

"I understand you probably hate me" he started and I chuckled lightly,

"I don't hate you, maybe you could say that to Mum, I am sad and disappointed if I should put it that way" I replied,

"You should hate me, I should have been there, I should have been the father you needed, you didn't have to grow up without a father figure," he said and

    Paige's POV-The Save(Part Two)"Stay by side no matter what, okay" Carlos instructed softly as we approached the cottage, I simply nodded taking in deep breaths to remain calm,"Like I have a choice" I replied rolling my eyes,"I advise you to speak to me with some respect for the meantime at least," he said in a mocking tone,"You wish" I shot at him chuckling silently,"It's fine, I will just remain outside here while you go in," he said suddenly stopping,"This is no time for jokes Carlos" I warned looking around to be sure no one had seen us already, for a place where kidnapped children are kept there seems to be no camera or security around,"It is to avoid suspicions" Carlos suddenly said,"Huh?" I expressed confused,"You are probably wondering why there are no cameras around" he replied with raised eyebrows,"Ohh, don't they think people can easily come in or something?" I asked,"Trust me, it is only because you know the truth, On a normal day nothing will make you suspect a

    Paige's POV-The Save(Part Three)"What do you mean by he is not here?" I asked fear gripping me, 'What if they have killed him already', 'What if we are too late',"They took him away earlier this morning" she whispered cutting my wild thoughts short,"Took him to where?" I asked trying to ignore the pain slowly spreading through me,"Where they take the others" she answered leaving me confused,"I don't understand" I replied,"He is not coming back, they never come back" she continued her voice drifting at the end,"What do you mean by they never come back?, talk to me please" I pleaded trying to contain the tears that threatened to fall,"I don't know what happens to them but they just never come back" she replied,"So you are saying I won't see my son again?" I asked tears slowly falling from my eyes,"I don't know" she answered her gaze fixed on the ground like she couldn't bear to look at me,"You are not making any sense" I snapped regretting it immediately as she flinched takin

    Paige's POV-The Save(Final Part)"Alvin?" I gasped tears dropping from my eyes at the sight but I couldn't look away, what kind of monster does this to a six-year-old,"Alvin" Claire called out breaking free from my hold and running over to where he was tied up, she quickly took off the gag from his mouth,"Claire" he cried out his voice cracked and inaudible,"What have they done to you?" She cried out her hands brushing away a few smears of blood on his face that she could remove but she couldn't do much, there was blood everywhere I couldn't even tell exactly where he was injured, the ropes around his body and hands looked like they are meant to kill him and not even hold him down, they will definitely bruise with how tight they look, a six-year-old won't even go so far if he is to try escaping so why hold him down in such a manner,"What..are you..doing here?...they will take you...away too" he coughed out taking in deep breaths at intervals like he was struggling to even breathe,

    Paige's POV"I knew there was something familiar about her" Mum whispered more to herself than to me,"Same thing I thought when I saw her, it was actually one of the reasons she agreed to come with me"I replied my gaze drifting off to where she sat directly opposite a very skeptical Carlos who kept staring at her like she was some spy, I wouldn't blame him tho,"She knows?" Mum asked,"Yes she does, she didn't take the news very well" I replied sadly,"I wasn't expecting her to, I can imagine how she feels knowing there is no one to come back to," Mum said with a sad grimace,"I will go talk to her now" I informed leaving Mum to her thoughts. ~~~~~~~"Hey Claire" I called out softly taking a seat beside her and making sure to leave enough space so I don't startle her,"Is he okay?" she asked panic written all over her face, you don't need a seer to know how much she cares about Alvin, "I don't know, the doctor is not out yet" I replied with a gl

    Jace's POV"What, how come? was she sick or something?" Paige asked shocked, I wouldn't blame her tho she knew nothing about it,"She was diagnosed with lung cancer but I just found out two months ago" I replied watching her eyes go wide,"And you didn't say anything" she shot at me her expression slowly morphing into one of anger,"I am sorry, I thought you wouldn't want to know as we aren't on the best of terms, and you were battling with Alex's attack and finding Alvin I didn't want to add to it" I defended feeling worse than I did earlier,"You call that an excuse really?" she snapped," I am sorry I didn't tell you" I apologized not wanting to say anything else that may fuel her anger,"You should go and see her" She spoke up her voice a bit calmer,"There is no way I will leave you and my son who is battling for his life" I replied adamantly,Blowing out her cheeks she muttered to herself like she couldn't believe her ears,"Your mum is dying and you don't want to go see her?" s

    Paige's POV"So can we see him now?" I asked the doctor anxiety buried deep in my chest,"Yes but I would advise maybe just two people at a time" he answered warmly,"Thank you" I appreciated with a small smile,"It's my job remember, please meet me in my office when you are done with your son," he said courteously,"Is there any problem?" I asked struggling to block the negative thoughts that tried to surface, there is no time for that,"We will talk when you are ready" he replied curtly turning to leave before I could bombard him with all my horrid thoughts,"What's wrong?" Mum asked noticing my demeanor,"The doctor asked to see me, what if something is wrong" I voiced out shakily as I battled with my inner self,"I believe everything is okay, you can go and see him now, you need to calm your nerves, we will wait for you, I will make sure no one goes in before you" Mum soothed and I smiled a little at her although it didn't reach my eyes,"Thank you" I appreciated."Sit please" the

    Paige's POV"So you are trying to say Alvin woke up asking for his brother?" Mum asked her shock mirroring mine earlier,"Exactly, he said he usually sees him in his dreams" I replied,"His dreams?" Carlos repeated,"This is all just confusing" Jace expressed and I couldn't agree more,"You said Brandon and Lisa are flying down here with Alex right?" Mum asked Jace,"Yes, they left for the airport over an hour ago" Jace replied and Mum modded in response,"I just hope nothing happens" I murmured,"Nothing happens? what do you mean?" Carlos asked cocking his head to the side,"Remember we still don't know who we are dealing with and what their motives are, with the stunt we just pulled we are not guaranteed any form of safety" I explained,"You are right, I would send some people to the airport to ensure they get here unharmed" Carlos assured,"Thank you" I appreciated with a warm smile,"Anything for you little sis" he replied with a wink running off before I could retaliate, smart mo

    Alvin's POV(Two years ago)"I would advise you to start cleaning that up, the earlier the better, remember you still have to prepare dinner" Madam Linda yelled at Claire while we all sat and watched, it hurt to watch but we all couldn't do anything other than sit and watch,"So..ry Ma'am" Claire stuttered grabbing a towel to clean up the mess Ryan made, he sat there with tears in his eyes watching but I couldn't blame him either, he had been sick for three days now and no one wanted to attend to him, hence why Claire had to go out of her way to get me my first inhaler when I had my first asthma attack, it almost cost her life but in the end it pushed Madam to get me a good supply of it that would last a while at least. I am guessing his time here is almost up because from all Claire has told me, they only take care of the ones that would be here much longer, maybe that's why the inhaler was gotten for me,"Can I help you?" I offered once Madam Linda was out of sight,"Alvin, I ca

It took alot of convincing to get Lisa to agree to go out with me, She was hell bent on staying right beside Brandon till he wakes up. I had to promise her that we wouldn't be out for long in case he wakes up, and also had to make her understand that Brandon will not be happy if he hears that she put her life on hold to wait for him to wake up and that seemed to have done the work."You know he never approved of me since high school" Lisa replied with fear coating her voice."That doesn't mean you shouldn't visit him at the hospital, at least for Brandon's sake, he wouldn't be happy when he wakes up and finds out that his father was hospitalised and you didn't go to see him" I advised."Yeah, I guess so" Lisa replied with a light sigh."With enthusiasm, we should get moving if we aim to be home early," I cheerfully suggested, reaching

    Jace's POVAs I stood under the shower, I replayed the events of the day over and over again in my head, watching the blood on my skin go down the drainage.The lifeless look on Mr. Hanson's face when the ambulance took him away will most likely haunt me for a while.We should never have gone there, whoevershot him was probably after us. How will Brandon feel if he wakes to his father battling for his life in the hospital and then there is the stunt Paige pulled this afternoon, she never listens, we shouldn't be trusting anyone right now but no, she had to go ahead to let a stranger into the house."Jace" She called out from inside the room, I knew I should have locked the door ."Jace, please I know you are in there, please come out let's talk",She pleaded knocking on the bathroom door."Jace" She called out again after few minutes."Please go away,Paige, we have nothing to talk about, you should go and attend to your visitor" I finally replied."He ha

    Paige's POV"What are you doing here?" I asked Leon, trying to mask my shock."I came to see you, you have been ignoring all my calls and texts since the burial, I wanted to be sure everything is okay" He replied a bright smile on his face."I have not been ignoring your calls and texts and even if I was isn't that more reason why you wouldn't want to find me?" I questioned refraining from banging the door in his face so I could prepare myself more for this."I don't think that way, I have known you for over five years now, and even though we are not as close as I would loved us to be, but you never just go blank on me like this, on days when you can't text or call, you call when you can, to apologize, so my first thought was definitely something had gone wrong, you can't really blame me" he shrugged so casually me but I just kept screaming in my head. Jace or the kids better not come home anytime soon, it would be a disaster, Paige this is what you get for enabling this guy for so lo

    Jace's POVHer words kept replaying in my head over and over again as we drove, I guess even my in wildest dreams I never thought she would say something like that to me. It made perfect sense anyway. It was really a hypocritical thing to say after all, l am here judging a man for doing the same thing I did, he didn't deny his son at least. I deserve all she said."Are you okay?" Jay asked snapping me outof my thoughts making me realize we had already stopped."Yes, I am" I lied taking off my seatbelt. "No, you are not. We got here over five minutes ago and I have been talking to you since we left the office and your half-ass replies and zoning out are enough to know you are definitely not оkау" Jay replied seeing straight past my pathetic lie."Can we do what we came here for already"I said evading his question."This is not over trust me" Jay replied before unlocking the car doors, | nodded before alighting from the car."I will do the talking,

    Paige's POV It's been a week, one full week, and still nothing from Brandon, not even a small move of his finger to at least assure us that he is recovering. All the doctors we have brought keep saying the same thing, that he will wake up soon but that's the problem, no one is being specific and everyone is growing impatient. Lisa most especially, she is losing it and I can't seem to be able to do anything about it. We have all decided he would be brought back home and treated from here so we could all keep our eyes on him and so that Lisa will at least leave the hospital since that is the only way she has agreed to leave."You are not going to the office today?" I asked Jace as l served breakfast. The silence at the dining table was starting to make me uncomfortable so anything to get the table talking."There is no time for that. I have to go to the hospital to help with Brandon's move and also Jay and I need to have a word with Brandon's Da

    Paige's POV One day LaterI finally understood what a true miracle felt like. According to the doctors Brandon was dead for a complete thirty minutes, they had claimed they had already exhausted all the resuscitation methods they could think of and had declared him dead but after running another checkup on him they found out he had a faint heartbeat that was why they couldn't detect it, apparently, if he hadn't moved when he did, they wouldn't have known, he would have died "How is he now?" I asked Jace once he walked out of the doctor's office, I needed positive information for Lisa as she had decided she wasn't to going leave Brandon's side till he was out of the hospital but he didn't seem to look like he was waking up anytime soon. The doctors were able to stabilize him but he hasn't said anything since then, no reaction either, he just lay so still, if not for the now beeping heart machine in the ward I wouldn't have believed he was actually

I have no control over myself at the moment, I can't feel a damn thing" I shot angrily."All you have to do is push yourself immediately you feel anything at all, you will know exactly what to do right after that" he replied his voice growing faint."You have to explain things to me Caleb, I am losing it" I said."I really want to but there is no time, you need to leave now brother" he answered."Caleb" I called but my voice seemed to have grown mute as the white light from earlier flashed and then loud sirens n
