what is really going on

"Holy shit I forgot how much this hurts."

I groaned as I squeezed Jace's hand.

"It's gonna be okay baby. I'm right here."

Jace said as the contraction ended. I looked over at Jace and sighed.

"So do you wanna tell me why you're so angry today?"

I asked him. Jace looked at me and took a deep breath.

"If I tell you something can you promise not to get mad?"

Jace asked me.

"I'll try not to."

I said.

"Well...I haven't been totally honest with you. The actual reason that I faked my death is because there is this group of people who have stalked my family since before I was even born. And then they found our house. And I couldn't risk you or the baby getting hurt because of me. So I had to fake my death."

Jace said as tears well up in my eyes.

"So what the hell was that fight about between your dad and you?'

I asked him.

"I only told Morgan and Adam the true reason of why I faked my death. I told my parents the same story I told you."

Jace said as I cried.

"Are you keeping anymore secrets from me?"

I asked him.

"Um...when I was 23...I had a child with a girl I thought loved me. His name is Ryan and he's seven now. I got to revisit him for the first time since we got together when I was gone."

Jace confessed as my cries turned to sobs.

"So you didn't even tell me you had a kid! And I thought you were perfect! Can you just...leave for now?"

I asked him. Jace left the room with his head hung as I sobbed into my hands. How the hell could he lie about all of these things to me?
