Paige:A Second Chance Romance Twenty four -Paige
Paige's POVIt's a weekend, and I'm going to the hospital with the children today, Sofya's surgery has been fixed, and she will be traveling tomorrow, so a little surprise party is being thrown for her before she leaves,"Are you kids not ready yet?" I yelled from the bottom of the stairs,"We are coming" Derek answered, followed by their little voices whispering to themselves,"Hurry" I replied before heading to the kitchen to get the food and snacks I packed up, Lisa should be here anytime from now she insisted on going with us,"We are done Mum" Alex called out from the door,"Okay then we should head out, your aunt Lisa will probably meet us there, we are already behind schedule," I said, ushering them towards the door, I would appreciate it if she would get there early, it's Grayson's first time meeting Alex and I don't know how he will react, I would appreciate the moral support,"Don't tell me you were planning to leave without me" her voice came in as I opened the door,"It wa

Jace's POVI kept staring at the one place I have not been for so many years now, everything in me screaming how bad this was, but I had to do it as they said. I sat in my car contemplating how I was going to go about it until I heard commotion from inside the house and then the front door swung open,"You know that we realized you were here long time ago so just come out already, Mum is waiting" Jay hollered from the door after staring for a while,I took in a deep breath before taking the bold step of coming down, I stood beside my car just staring at the compound as the feeling of nostalgia hit me, I can remember vividly all the memories I had here before I stopped coming,"After you" he ushered once I got to the front door,"Where is she?" I asked, looking around,"Balcony" he replied pointing towards its direction like I was a visitor here,"I know where it is located, " I muttered,"Just to be certain, you know" he replied with a shrug, I simply ignored the comment and headed to

Jace's POV"What do you mean you have only six months left?" I asked confused, it cannot be what I am thinking, right,"Exactly what it means, her damn lifestyle has finally caught up with her" Dad replied making me turn my attention to him, I was barely holding myself from hitting him right now,"Mum" I called out again when she didn't answer me the first time, that was when I noticed the silent tears that had started falling from her eyes. I held myself from walking up to her to comfort her, I need answers first,"Jay" I turned to face him when I realized Mum wasn't going to say anything in the state she was in,He glanced at her for an approval, in which she hesitated a little before nodding her head a little, her silent cries turning into loud sobs,"Mum has lung cancer" he finally said, avoiding my eyes,"Lung cancer, how? I don't get it, for how long now?" I asked, realizing I was the only person present who didn't know about this before now, how come Dad knew, and I didn't?,"S

Paige's POVI was feeling so much at the same time and I didn't like it one bit, I knew I was letting my guard down, he wouldn't talk to me like that if I wasn't. I am beyond annoyed right now, why on earth did I believe his pleas, he is literally in another woman's arms presently, and I freaking rejected Leon for no reason, since that's what he thinks, I might as well live up to his expectation."Paige?" his voice came in on the second ring,"Yup, it's me" I replied, trying to get over my new profound anxiety, I really don't want to do this but what is better than giving Jace a taste of his medicine,"I didn't think you would call so soon" he replied, sounding happy, now I feel bad about this,"Neither did I" I said under my breath,"I didn't get you, what did you say?" he asked, of course you didn't, you were not supposed to hear it,"How about a little outing, maybe coffee?" I offered, regretting the words immediately I said them,"I would love that, just let me plan the date and t

Paige's POV"Where is he?" I asked Grace as we got to the hospital,"He is stable now, the doctor was able to stop the bleeding" she said trying to calm me down, but I was more than restless,"How come?, how severe is it?" I asked frantically still trying to wrap my head around all of these, She glanced at Lisa first hesitation clearly written on her face,"Talk to me" I screamed at them not minding the attention we were starting to get,"From what we gathered, he wasn't on the road, the car intentionally hit him" Lisa blurted out,"What?" I asked shocked,"Someone wanted to kill him Paige" Grace said, her voice really low like she couldn't fathom it either,"Why will someone want to kill a six-year-old?" I asked no one in particular as shocked consumed me whole, I just had that feeling something was wrong immediately Leon and I left that restaurant, from the creepy person watching us to the eerie silence and darkness of the street and then my apartment, I just ignored the signs and n

Jace's POV"It's not possible Paige, as I am speaking with you, I have already hired people who are moving your things from your apartment to my house in the main city, I can't afford to lose any of you" I admitted finally blurting out what I wanted to say from the onset bracing myself for her reaction and she didn't disappoint, my left cheek stung, but I guess I deserved it,"You have no right whatsoever to just carry me away from my home I have lived in for six years now, no right at all," she said seething,"I know that Paige, but it's the best thing to do, you will be safer at my place, and you know it," I said trying to convince her,"Because the person after us is afraid of you?" she asked, a challenge dancing in her eyes,"Don't tell me you think I know the person or this is my fault in any way?" I questioned, although her facial expression already gave everything off,"I may have made mistakes in the past, but it hurts me to know that you think so low of me" I answered hurt sp

Paige's POV"He can go home now, but he needs to be under close watch at all times, also his bandages need to be changed after every two days to avoid getting his wounds infected" The doctor instructed signing some documents before handing them over to me,"Thank you" I appreciated getting up to leave,"You don't need to thank me it's my work, ensure to give him his drugs at the right time," he answered,"I will, Doctor" I said with a grateful smile,"I will send a nurse to check on him occasionally" he said,"I will really appreciate that" I said gratefully,"You can go now" he dismissed, and I grabbed my purse and left, heading back to Alex's ward where Grace was getting him ready to leave,"Ready?" I asked as I walked in,"He was trying to throw a little tantrum when he woke up and didn't see you, but he is good now, he slept back after a while" she answered, getting up from the chair she was sitting on,"Thank you very much, I hope he wasn't much of a bother?" I asked, walking ove

Paige's POVWe got to his house and as expected, he didn't disappoint, there was a fountain at the middle of the side garden that the night stars accented very well, the building is definitely a duplex but looks like a massive bungalow from afar, the flowers at the side added to the beauty of the whole environment, someone could spend a whole evening out here and not feel it,"Is it to your taste, my lady?" he asked when he realized how I kept looking around using a fake British accent I would have found funny if we were in a better situation,"That doesn't really matter, I wouldn't be here for long remember" I answered, although I am sure it is clearly written in my face that I really love the environment but until I see the interior I can't decide,"You wouldn't be here for long doesn't mean you won't be happy and comfortable here" he said with a little shrug before ushering me forward, I made sure Alex was comfortable on me before

Paige's POV"Paige" Jace whispered once I got to the last stair where he stood waiting for me,"Jace" I replied smiling, I couldn't get the smile off my face at this point, I was already having such a good night and we weren't out of the house yet,"You look..." he stuttered giving me another once over but his eyes lingered on my exposed cleavage,"Ravishing" he completed pulling me into his arms without warning making me release a loud welp,"And your scent, fuck Paige" he cursed sinking his face into my neck and taking deep breaths,"You are so going to be the death of me" he mumbled his grip on my waist tightening,"I wanted you to dress up but not to the extent where I can't think of anything but fucking you till you can't walk" he groaned placing a soft kiss on my collarbone making me shudder,"Come on, don't exaggerate it now" I chuckled trying to pull away,"Exaggerate really" he snapped pulling his face away from my neck so he could stare at my face but his grip didn't waver,

Paige's POV'Be ready by 7, I will come to pick you up' Jace's text read, this was the fifteenth time he was texting me since he left with the boys in the morning,"Your husband must really love you" the lady who was dressing my hair spoke up a kind smile on her face, from how she sounded she seemed to be in her late thirties but she looked nothing over twenty-three,"Oh no, he is not my husband" I blushed,"I'm so sorry, I just thought he was your husband with the number of times your phone has pinged since you got here, plus the permanent smile on your face gave you away,"I'm not smiling" I quickly denied,"Ahh, young love" she chuckled shaking her head,"You are smiling brightly, there is no point denying it" she continued,"I am not denying anything" I tried to defend but I knew she was telling the truth after all there was a large mirror in front of me,"I am guessing all of these are for a date," she said making me stare at her through the mirror trying to hide my shock,"I wa

Paige's POV"Jace?" I mumbled in shock, it was past midnight and he was standing right in front of my room with nothing but shorts on,"I know this looks creepy but I just couldn't sleep" he quickly said,"And why is that?" I asked trying to hide the concern in my voice,"I want to ask you something" he replied,"Really, that's why you can't sleep?" I asked in shock,"I know it sounds absurd, but I really want to do this right" he replied,"What's wrong?" I asked,"Will you go on a date with me tonight?" he asked in a low voice making me burst out in fits of laughter,"Are you being serious?" I asked trying to control my laughter,"Yes I am, I promise it will be fun " he replied staring at me with so much hope in his eyes,"Yes Jace, I will go on a date with you" I answered smiling how nervous he looked,"Thank you," he said excitedly pulling me in for a hug,"Anytime" I muttered shocked at his reaction,"You will love every bit of it," he said so certain as he pulled away,"Hopefully

Paige's POV"Fucking Jace Russo" I cursed trying to control the anger in my veins,"Calm down little fella, talk to me what did he do now, do I need to castrate him earlier than I expected?" Lisa beckoned from the phone, I just had to call her because I was starting to lose it,"That asshole is messing with me and he knows it, he freaking enjoys it even" I shot tugging at my hair,"Woah, messing with you how?" Lisa asked sounding utterly confused,"He keeps riling me up, he would come so close like he just wants to whisper something and then when he is sure he is close enough to do whatever he wants he would pull away and act like nothing happened, he fucking knows how he affects me and he is using it to his advantage" I snapped rage brewing in my system as I remembered everything, he has been at it since we got here, sneaking up in my space, getting me all riled up and wanting and then he would disappear, the one that has decided to stick the most is the last one, I was making d

Jace’s POV“Welcome to Miami” I yelled excitedly,“It’s beautiful” Paige muttered a bright smile and a glow in her eyes as she took in her environment,“Very beautiful” I mumbled in reply my gaze fixed on Paige,“I mean the city, Jace,” Paige said rolling her eyes, but I didn't miss the hidden smile on her face,“I know” I answered cheekily turning to face the kids who stared in awe,“Come on, we need to get going, I have to show you guys a little something” I hollered leading them over to the car I hired for the trip,“Don't worry, our luggage will be taken to the cabin” I assured Paige noticing the way her gaze occasionally moved to our luggage,“You sure?” she asked a skeptical look on her face,“Hundred percent, you seem not to understand what I mean by I have everything planned out” I replied,“Okay then,” she said walking over to where the kids stood beside the car,“We still have somewhere to before heading to the cabin,” I said in a sing-song voice helping the kids get in

Paige's POV"A weekend getaway sounds really nice if you ask me, especially for the kids" Lisa spoke up, luckily since we were ok house arrest Brandon and Jace hired masseuses for the day and it's been wonderful,"Yeah but I don't trust Jace around me, we might do something we are not ready for" I muttered,"Or you don't trust yourself around him" she joked wiggling her eyebrows,"Whatever, it's still the same thing" I shot back,"Look Paige, I know you and you wouldn't do anything you don't want to do, I know you are fighting it now but deep down we both know you want this. He hurt you, yes but maybe this is the time for change" she said softly,"What if this isn't that time, what if things don't work out, I don't think I can handle it, Lisa" I admitted, trying to bury the fear that had been trying to resurface since the talk I had with Jace,"It's okay to feel the way you are feeling but it shouldn't stop you from trying, you deserve the best, Paige, and even though Jace may not be

Paige's POV"What do you think will be wrong with Catherine?" I asked Lisa, we were currently preparing dinner,"I don't know but her Dad is now a suspect on my list" she replied,"I agree, she always seemed like a spoilt daddy's girl, this is just shocking" I voiced out my thought,"I knew something was wrong somewhere when you told me she came to apologize," she said"This just makes everything so much more complicated" I muttered with a small sigh,"Hopefully everything will unfold soon," Lisa said in quiet empathy,"Have you checked it?"I asked changing the topic,"No not yet, I'm scared" she admitted,"Trust me when I say I can relate, do you want me to check it with you?" I asked softly,She smiled before replying, "I would love that""Okay let's quickly finish up and we will go check it out," I said cheerily. ~~~~"You would have to pee on it and wait for at least fifteen minutes, since they are two different strips we would wait

Paige's POV"Hmm, did anything happen recently?"Brandon asked breaking the sudden silence that fell between us, Grace and Mum had joined us leaving the kids with Claire,"None that I know of, she never complained of anything" Jay answered lost in thoughts, I was about to speak up when he shot up,"Wait..." he snapped a look of realization on his face,"I overheard her conversation with Mrs. Smith over the weekend, something about her dad threatening her" he blurted,"Threatening her? Why will her dad threaten her?""Brandon asked,"It can't be, that Man adores his daughter, he always has," Jace said,"That's what he wanted you all to think, that man is nothing but a monster" Jay sneered anger filling his voice as he spoke about a man I didn't know about until now,"Why am I not surprised?" Grace muttered rolling her eyes,"What do you mean?"Jace asked looking utterly confused,"Her father wasn't always like that" Jay started, he didn't look like someone who wanted to say what he had to

Paige's POV"We have to be quiet, it is the only way we can get you girls out of here without drawing his attention, there was another man with him when we walked in and we don't know if they are together now so we can't risk it," One of the guys said, I think I heard Jace call him Arthur once,"How are we going to pass through without being noticed? He was standing really close to the door when we entered here like he wanted to be sure we didn't leave" Lisa voiced out the same question I wanted to ask,"There is a back door in a room behind the counter, I would cause a distraction while Arthur here will lead you both out and drive you home" the other guy answered this time, he seemed to be the stricter one,"That seems like a better option" Lisa muttered and I nodded in agreement,"Remember to be extra quiet" he reminded and we nodded simultaneously before he turned to leave,"We would give him five minutes to cause a distraction and then we would make a run for it, follow my lead, a
