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

    Jace's POVIt's been two days since Jay found Catherine, after that night Brandon and I met with them no one has seen or heard from them, we only got a text from Jay assuring us that they are safe, they are still yet to clear the air on all of this."Sir, your 11:00 is here" my secretary informed me,"Okay then, I will be them shortly" I dismissed."Mr. Russo, we were made to believe you are the sole heir to your father's company, so when we have problems with how our business with them is moving we are to question you" one of them spoke up, he was the CEO of Nash Textile and Designs, it was rumored a few years ago that his first son Dexter died of chronic lung disease, leaving him with only one son, Matteo, who from my findings was the black sheep of the family, he was a gentleman to the most of my knowledge but at this point, he was getting on my nerves real quick,"Mr.Nash, right?" I asked for confirmation, he replied with a curt nod and I took that as a sign to continue,"I unders

    Paige's POVThere has been a looming darkness in the house since we all heard about Jace's Mum's death two days ago, I have only seen him once and that was the night he informed me, he has not been home since then,"I am sure he is fine wherever he is, you need to calm down" Mum cooed but it wasn't working, I am restless and it is all his fault,"He never does this, even Brandon has no idea where he is, Mum what if something bad has happened to him, you know someone is after us, he can't just disappear that way" I replied, the panic in my voice evident,"Calm down my child, he will be home, he is grieving" Mum soothed,"We can't be so sure, what if..." I wanted to say but the loud bang from the front door stopped me and I quickly ran to the door,"Jace?" I called out,"Ohh, you a...re sti...ll here, great. I had th...is cra...zyy dre..am that you le...ft me just li...ke Mum did"he slurred holding on to the wall like his life depended on it,"Have you been drinking? Are you drunk?" I a

    Jace's POVSuicide? That doesn't even make any sense,"That can't be true, Mum was many things but not suicidal" I argued staring at the hospital report,"Something is not adding up," Paige said and everyone nodded in agreement,"It says here, she abused her drugs"I spoke up again letting the shock sink in,"But Mum wasn't in charge of her drugs, she didn't even know where they were kept, I made sure of that" Jay muttered, nothing seemed to be making sense here,"Who hired the Nurse?" Paige suddenly asked,"Peter, he was actually the first person to find out about her sickness" I answered realization dawning on me, I knew something was up with him since that weekend at Mum's place,"Well, if that is the case, Jay, Brandon, come on, I want to have a word with our dearest old man" I hollered grabbing my car keys,"Be careful guys" Lisa yelled as we headed to the door, halting my steps, I turned to glance at Paige with a small smile on my face, although she wouldn't say it, she was obvio

    Paige's POV"How are the wedding arrangements going?" I asked Lisa while we prepared lunch, I had been meaning to ask this question for over a week now but I couldn't find the appropriate time until now,Releasing a sigh she glanced at me, " To be honest, I have been thinking of moving it" she answered lowly,"Why will you want to do that?" I gasped shocked at her reply, I don't know what I was expecting but it was definitely not this,"Why not, Paige, with everything that is going on, Mrs.Russo's death, the suspicions, Brandon, Jay, and Jace playing cops, there is no space for a wedding, Brandon barely mentions it these days, it is like it is not even on his mind anymore and I don't want to seem like the bugging fianćee that doesn't want to understand but it would be a lot better if he told me straight up he wasn't interested anymore instead of ignoring the subject matter" she answered, the sadness in her voice hurt me more than words could express, I didn't realize all these problem

    Paige's POV"Paige, what's wrong?" Lisa asked hurrying over to where I stood staring at my blank phone screen in shock,"We have to go to the hospital, now" I answered snapping out of my reverie,"Wait, why? Who was that?" she asked frantically as we both walked out of the kitchen leaving everything behind,"They were attacked, I don't know how bad it was but the doctor said Jace may not make it" I murmured breathing through the pain in my heart as I thought of it,"Oh my goodness, that sounds bad already" she gasped in shock,"I can't take the kids there right now, get the car started, let me inform Mum so she can keep an eye on them," I said heading towards the stairs. The loud beating of my heart was the perfect reminder that even with everything that had happened in the past, I couldn't handle losing him. ****"What happened?" we asked once we spotted a frantic Catherine at the reception,"I couldn't get much information from any of

    Unknown POV"I hope you didn't leave any trail behind?" I asked as I walked up to where he stood."No sir" he quickly replied, his eyes fixed on the ground as if his life depended on it, and for the record it actually did."Good, because I wouldn't hesitate to put a bullet to your head the same way I did to the last five before you" I threatened with a dark smile on my face as I watched him fidget."Where is he?" I asked again."The basement" he quivered."Okay then, shall we?" I gestured."Uhm, Sir..." he started his eyes darting, funny enough I knew exactly what he wanted to say."They will find out soon anyways, so why wait now?" I questioned with raised eyebrows."But..." he stuttered again, stopping his words midway when he noticed my hands now positioned behind my back ready to pull out my favorite toy."I am sorry" he quickly said, leading the way, how good it feels to hold so much power. ~~~~"Shit" My little pr

    Jace's POV"What do you mean by you have not seen him all evening?" I snapped at my secretary,We were having an important meeting and Brandon was nowhere to be found, I have been calling him non-stop but no answer,"I really don't know sir, his secretary informed me of his arrival earlier today but they are both not on seat presently" she answered in a shaky voice,"Just go" I snapped pulling out my phone to call Lisa,"Jace?" She answered in a sleepy voice,"Is Brandon home?" I asked going straight to the point c"No, he came to check up on me but he left home over an hour ago, he said you both had an important meeting to attend" she answered sounding shocked at my question,"Over an hour ago?" I repeated confused, he should have gotten here by now,"How is that even possible?" I muttered,"He isn't there yet," she said more like a statement than a question, she sounded wide awake now,"No, he isn't and I can't do the meeting without him" I replie

My heart felt so heavy yet light, it was like a dream come true."I will take this as a yes" he mumbled,"Yes Jace, I love it, it is perfect, it has everything" I cried,"I am glad to hear that, a part of me was scared I would flop it""No you didn't, but how long has this bee

I saw him so worried yet I still didn't say anything" She continued crying, her body shaking,"No, don't say that, you didn't do anything wrong, things just didn't go as planned" I replied rubbing her back to prevent the hiccups that were starting, she looked like a mess,"Please Lisa, this isn't good for the baby" I tried again,"A baby he doesn't even know about?" she replied,"But he wouldn't like this if he knew, this isn't your fault, please" I pleaded,"I just..." she wanted to say right before Jace walked in,"Why are you st

    Paige's POVWe were going home today, and to be honest, a small part of me didn't want to go, it was peaceful here, breakfast together, outings, movie night, we almost looked like an actual family, almost. I guess it's time to face the real world once again and not some fantasy world where I finally got all I ever wanted,"I have a meeting with some of Dad's business associates later today but I have to take you out before then" Jace informed, we were on our way to the airport and I was already feeling nervous, plus the sexual tension between Jace and I, It is only a miracle that I can still keep my hands to myself, but I couldn't help but keep fighting, the look of rejection on his face from last night keeps playing in my head, guilt is a bitch,"Uhm, okay" I replied, unsure of how to tell him about my plans with Leon, I couldn't bail again, plus I thought it was time I told him about the kids and Jace, we were never going to work anyways. It was still a bit early so the boys were

    Jace's POVIf I was asked right now and I said my self-control wasn't hanging by a thread of restraint then I should be tagged a very bad liar because even the large bulge down there was enough evidence, and she had no idea how badly I was struggling to keep my hands to myself, all I can think about is fucking her right here on this table,"I will have my usual," I said to the waiter handing back the menu,"Okay, I will be back shortly" he replied before turning to leave,"They make really nice steaks here" I spoke up starting a conversation hoping to distract myself a little from my current thoughts,"I have always preferred making my steaks myself" she murmured making me chuckle,"Don't worry you will like it" I assured,"I hope so" she shrugged, her eyes occasionally glancing at the large glass beside us taking in the beautiful view of the city and also giving me a perfect view of her beautiful face and that very sexy cleavage of hers, the glint in her eyes warmed my heart in ways
