XAVIER

As he poured me a cup of whatever he was drinking, I sat still, the smell of his cologne filling my lungs.

Him being close to me had always intimidated me in a way or two, maybe it was the memories of when he used to be mad at me and he'd raise his voice and stand over me and breathe down fire on me.

He filled the cup to the top and I could feel his eyes lingering on me for a second.

“You don't know how this news you brought me tonight is the icing on the cake. I mean, I just closed a

    MIAGary and I were practically holding hands as we stared at the trap door. Nothing weird but out of fear. We didn't know what we were doing or if it was the right thing to do. “Are you having second thoughts about going down there?”“Yes I am. But if I don't, I'll never know."There's a secret under this house that I had to uncover and if I kept being scared about the whole thing, I never will so I had to shake it up and just do it. “You don't have to come with me if you don't want to. It's okay, I'll understand. If you come down with me, then it means you're now a part of it and you can't exclude yourself. If anything will happen to me, it will happen tk you too.” He looked at the trap door one more time. “What's the worst that can happen?” He raised it up and a flight of stairs descended. “Wait, I need to ask Black if the place is booby trapped. He might wire it to have motion detectors s

    THIRD PERSON POVWhen Cornelius heard that he had a guest, he was quite surprised by the intrusion because he didn't know anyone who would want to see him by this time. Most of his appointments were once the sun went down. During the day, Cornelius Agar didn't seem to exist except behind the curtains of his room. He loved the solace it brought away from the world, the peace that he could enjoy once he got into his room, it was filling and he couldn't get enough of it. It was in this darkness that he conceived some of his very excellent plans that got him to where he is today. He has had to make some very interesting and important decisions in his lifetime and he would not have been able to do it if not for the peace behind these walls. He was in the process of thinking up another plan when the message came..A guest. One he had seen from afar but didn't know up close because he hadn't been bothered to form a relationship

    MIALater that night, I sent the signal to Gary. A flashing light from my window three times and then I waited for bim to send the signal back. I left my room, wrapping the shawl around my head, using it as a disguise. If anything went wrong, Aemond would see that scarf that he knew all too well and confusion would flood him. My feet moved lightly against the floor because Xavier's room was close to mine and if he found out that I was leaving the room, I would have nothing to say to him. His father's room was at the end of the hallway so I walked barefeet there, waiting at the stairs for Gary to come. His steps were so silent that I didn't even know until he appeared behind me. The lights in the house were out since it was so late in the night. “Are you trying to scare me to death?”“Sorry, I can't really see where I'm going.” I turned on the flash light and shielded some of the light with my hand. “You w

    MIAAs soon as I got back to the room, I placed a call to Black immediately. Xavier had no idea that I had his number, I'd taken it out of his phone at some point. Something told me that soon enough, I would need it and I'm glad I took it when I could..He didn't pick up until the second call. “Black, I need your help.” He responded immediately. “Mia, does Xavier know you're calling me? How did you get my number?”Why was I surprised that he knew who it was? Black knew everything which was why he was the perfect person for the job. “He doesn't but I can't wait for him to know. I really need your help. I need you to get into his father's cameras and change the feed. It's really important, Black.”He went silent for a while and I couldn't even hear his breathing. “Fine. What cameras do you need?”“The ones in front of his room and the one inside. I need him to keep seeing that there's nothing wrong. There's a hidden room in his bedroom. Can you help me find it?”The answer was sho

    MIAShe had all the answers I was looking for. After leaving the kitchen, I went down the stairs to the guards quarters to look for more answers. My father always told me that if you wanted to know the secrets of a house, go to the maids. He wasn't wrong. They were everywhere so they always knew what was going on. “Is Gary home?” The guard nodded and walked into the building. The only issue I might face now would be someone ratting me out to him but if anyone here was still loyal to him after the things he does to them, then they would be very stupid. I was ready for anything Aemond wanted to bring though. He would definitely try to stop me from finding out the truth but there's nothing he can do to hide it anymore. The guard came out with Gary in tow. “Mia, it's good to see you. Xavier carried you in here passed out and I was so scared for you. I hope you're fine now.”I offered a small smile. “Yes Gary, I'm okay. I need to speak to you about something very important. Can we g

    MIAWhen I woke up the next morning, I woke up with a mission. Find out the reason why I wanted to stay in this house. The bullshit I had told Xavier about a change of scenery was a lie and I just needed to say something. But I needed to find out the reason why it was that way fast. While Xavuer was dealing with his feelings, I'll be dealing with the truth. As much as I wish I could be there for him, I couldn't find answers in bed with him. I didn't know this house and I didn't know what secrets it held so I might as well ask someone who knew about it. Today, I'll be going to every room in this house. My first stop was the kitchen because that was where my answer lay. The maids stopped talking when they saw me walk in. They had been sitting on the kitchen counter and laughing and eating but they jumped down and dropped the food. “No, please. Don't do that. I don't have a problem with what you're doing at all. Please, continue. I just came to speak to you about something.”They st

Wearing an expensive suit like he was heading to a business meeting.Like he hadn’t just kidnapped me.His eyes found mine. Cold, calculating with something dark that ma
