The Son And The Agent

 MILES' POV "What are you doing here Miles?"A voice asked, nearly making me jump out of my skin.I'd been so engrossed in going through James' secret desk that I forgot to listen for footsteps. A rookie mistake that I shouldn't have made.I turned to face the new occupant of the room.It was Chloe, arms folded, giving me the patented Chloe look. The look that said she was seconds away from blowing the whistle on me.This was bad.If I didn't shut this down before it got out of hand, she would go to James and ask him about this room. A room I was not supposed to know existed."I need an answer Miles or you can explain yourself to James" There it was. Chloe's only flaw.She was a tattle tale.I pushed out a bit of my essence, enveloping the flash drive I'd found in black."I will tell you later." A defiant look was my only reply."Not happening. Tell me right now." She walked into t

Family Secrets - Flashback

MILES' POV    I'd woken up to the strangest feeling ever. I felt both heavier and lighter than air. My head felt foggy. It was like having a morning after after a night of partying. Problem was, I'd skipped the drinking part.I could also see shadows. Like literally see the shadows that weren't there. A friend once told me that you can't touch imaginary things so I put my hand to the wall to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. I saw my own hand and screamed in fear.I saw my hand....and a shadow of my hand. Beneath my hand was a shape of my hand. The shape was black. Not dark, but black. Pure inky blackness. If it were possible I would have peed myself.My door burst open and Mrs Cook, our housekeeper rushed in."Miles? I heard you scream." She held a golf club over her head, ready to swing at any threat.The incredulity of my housekeeper, a woman pushing sixty, defending me from an intruder

Family Secrets - Present

Miles' POV  "Ow" I yelped in pain.I looked down to my tingling flesh and realized someone had poked me in the thigh. I pivoted my head to glare at the broad shouldered jerk that just poked me with a pen.The sharp pain in my thigh did the job of rudely returning my focus back to where it should be. Debriefing my handler about James.The occurrence at James' office had happened four years ago. I'd come a long way from that clueless boy."What do you have for me?"He asked in a gravelled voice.I handed over the flash drive silently."I will pass this on to him. Standby for further instructions." Blade was out of my car in the next second.I tracked him with my eyes until the night swallowed him up. With a heavy heart, I reversed my car and drove home.I wished more than anything that I didn't have to resort to such underhanded tactics against my own family.Unfortunately, I didn't have a

The Misled Bride

"Your fiancé is very handsome"Chi Chi,one of the apprentice at Lou Couture gushed as she helped with my wedding dress.I turned and glanced through the partition at the man in question. He bore strong resemblance to my silver fox. He was the replica of what James looked like ten years ago. He had a runner's build. Lithe yet compact muscles,not a single hint of fat anywhere. He was tall enough for a man,over six inches. All this was genial enough. What made you stop and take a second look was those weird green- grayish eyes. Hazel under the right shade. It changed colour with his mood. Those eyes could blaze with fury just as much as it could smolder with intensity. Either way,take a look in those eyes and you would be forever lost. It didn't help that he had a chiseled jaw and aquiline nose that made him look like a roman god. Bushy stubble that you just want to bite or run your hands through. Yeah,I would totally hit that.The weird thought

History Lesson

James's POV (Continued) When I turned twenty and I learned about the existence of shadow magic and our family's role in the Order, I resolved to be the best damn Shadow there ever was. At least then father would be proud of me and then he'd have to acknowledge me. Thanks to father retiring quite early, Beaumont became the new master of the House. Okay, a little education.The Order was essentially the magic police. We maintained law and order between the humans and the supernatural community. Put together witches, undead beings and some idiots that can into four legged animals and you have a lot of testosterone -don't matter if they're male or female, the quest to dominate all is the same- and that's where we come in. The our own brand of force -thats the shadow magic we have- and human technology, we have been able to keep everyone in line and dealt judiciously with those who haven't. What's a great organization without an arch nemesis? Welcome the w

James

"James?"A voice called from behind me. I turned around to find Sylvester Black poised on the staircase. "Why do you look like something the cat dragged in?" He asked,a frown marring his features.I feel like something the cat dragged in. Aloud, I said "I had business out of town and I just got back.""Still doesn't explain your appearance. It's not befitting for a Scion of the Crane family to be seen looking like.....this" He finished with a raised brow.Sylvester Black and my older brother, Beaumont have been friends since they were in nappies, and as such, I've been around him since I was a child. Everytime I interacted with the man,I was left feeling wrong footed and unsure of myself. Even when he wasn't summing up your worth with a single dismissive glance,his very presence was enough to make anyone feel inferior. I felt it then as I stood in my dirty bedraggled clothing."James?"A feminine voice gasped, interrupting the Inquisition."Hel

Its Time To Break Up

JAMES So,where have you been?" Chloe asked, staring at me suspiciously."Are we the only ones having dinner?" I asked with some surprise. The table was laden with food that would make any royal house proud,but there was only three plate settings."Yes. Aunt Tara is visiting her mum. Kyle and Ty have other engagements. My parents are on a cruise. I told you that last week." She finished,glaring at me accusingly.I winced,more strikes against me."Yes you did. Sorry. I forgot.""Seems to be a recurring theme with you. Especially where I'm concerned." She snarled,poking at her food."Has Miles been here today?" I asked Sylvester,sure he wouldn't bite my head off for asking a question"No. Is there a special reason why he was supposed to be here?" Sylvester dabbed at his chin daintily."Yes. I asked him to deliver a package to Chloe." That explained why she was still angry with me. Chloe loved pretty things. If M

The Reconciliation

Chloe - The Black House"You did what?!" Mother bellowed. Her face turned purple with rage and indignation. I cowered back from her anger, unable to believe my mother can show any emotion towards anything that didn't involve the latest fashion trend or her high class parties."He has been ignoring me mother." I tried again to explain my reasoning to her."He has been busy! He is the most eligible bachelor in this country and you want to dump him because he doesn't have time to go to fittings with you?!""I didn't dump him. I just want him to give me more time. That's not too much to ask is it?""No baby girl. It isn't. But you need to understand that he is a very important member of society and as such his time is very limited. He needs to prioritize....."And I wasn't worthy of making his list of priorities? I screamed or growled, I wasn't certain which and ran to my room. The door made a loud thwack as it collided with the frame heavily.
