Between A Rock And A Hard Place - 2
At midnight, just as instructed, I walked into a deserted warehouse. How Blade knew all of these places I didn't know existed in a town I grew up in, I would never understand.
I was too anxious to sit still and wait for him. I roamed around the warehouse before finding a streetlight and leaned against it.There was a flash of black and then Blade was standing in front of me."Here." He said without preamble.No hey, how you doing. Nothing. I doubted the man knew how to have a proper conversation with anyone."And this is?" I opened the black purse to reveal three vials of grayish liquid."Tyier." He stated simply. Getting answers from Blade could be likened to pulling teeth."I have no freaking idea what a Tyier is.""It's made of Eitr,but diluted.""I thought we agreed not to kill my uncle." I muttered."I made no such agreement with you. I relayed your concerns to my master and he informed the Three. They agree with you." I breatheRelated chapters

James's POV My earliest memory from childhood was when my ball got stuck in the tree. It was an ordinary day, just like any other. I was about four or five? The details of such a young age is quite foggy, but I remember wanting that ball so bad. I don't think it was my birthday or even remember where I'd gotten the ball from. I just knew I wanted it and it was stuck so far away, and there was no one around, not even my parents. It would be years later until I realized that my parents' absence wasn't because of work or any problems but simply choice. Anyways, I started crying profusely. My nanny -one of many over the following years- came and she tried to console me. I pointed to the ball up in the tree. "Oh, it's so high up. How about I just get you another one?" She had answered in dismissive tone. She carried me away from the tree and back to our house, ignoring my cries. I didn't like being in the house. It was always just me wit

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

CHLOEAugust 1,2016.I was running late. I checked my dashboard again to make sure I was still driving under the approved 40 km/hr limit since this was a residential area. It wouldn't do to be pulled over and delay getting to Alicia.That little menace had called me up a few minutes ago and demanded I come over. Immediately. Apparently she was injured in the gazebo. She had fallen down when climbing to the top of the gazebo. Why she would do something as dumb as that,I had no idea.I found it strange though that she

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

MILES' POVI'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

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

"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
