Okay, this will perform worse than what you were planning, but my point is that you could try pagination this way:

WITH CTE AS
(
    ... original SQL goes here ...
)

SELECT A.*
FROM CTE A
INNER JOIN (SELECT  YourKey,
                    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ...) rnum
            FROM CTE) B
ON A.YourKey = B.YourKey
WHERE rnum BETWEEN 1 AND 10;
