Chapter 10

Okay, Camilia stop smiling and go to sleep. I ordered myself. With great difficulty I stopped and lay my head down on the side of the cream, leather seat in the van.

When I looked over my shoulder I notice that Ryder was asleep. He looked so peaceful. I was staring at his rising and falling body unknowingly.

"Take a picture it will last longer." Ryder spoke with a raspy voice.

"Okay." I chirped as I took out my phone, unlocked it and took a piture of him. I wasn't going to keep it I just wanted to see his reaction. Or, I could use it to blackmail him.

Oh. My. God. That's such a good idea. Yeah, scrap that I'm definitely keeping this!

"Need me to pose for more?" He asked making a peace sign and lifting his hand towards his face. I chuckled and took another few pictures. I kept on taking them even after he stop posing.

I was so immersed in taking photos that I didn't realise his eyes were open and he was watching my every move, waiting for the right moment to attack me.

In the blink of an eye he got up and attempted to take my phone of me. Luckily I have a good reflex reaction or my phone would have been gone, there and then.

I hid my phone behind my back but Ryder hovered over me and reached behind my back. I squiggled around but failed to keep my phone in my hands.

When he got my phone in his possession he tried to open it but to his disaster, he needed my fingerprint.

Once realising this, he looked at me and then back at the phone. He handed me back my phone.

When I was about to grab it though, he grabbed my hand.

Taking my index finger in his large hand he pressed it against the finger scanner and, despite all of my efforts, my phone unlocked.

"Nooo!" I pleaded.

I slumped back in my chair, pouting in defeat. I didn't bother looking at him beacuse I knew what he was going to do. When he was finished deleting the pictures, he threw my phone on to my lap.

Ryder got bored after a while and took his phone out and played with it.

I was on the verge of sleeping when Ryder slung his arm over my shoulder. I opened my eyes in shock and looked at him to see what he was doing.

He was taking... seflies?

"Pose for the photo, jezz. I swear you've never taken a selfie." He remarked still looking at me through the screen of the phone.

I did as I was told and tried to pull away but he kept his grip aroung my shoulders.

"Who said we were done. You took pictures of me so I'm just returning the favour."

"You deleted them though." I said looking at him pouting.

"So?"

"This is pointless." I mumbled and posed for the camera again. We kept like that for about 10 minutes taking photos and laughing.

We stopped when Ryder received a call. It was Sandra. So we stopped immediately to avoid getting in to trouble.

I relaxed into my seat and plugged my earphones in my ears. Well... That was until I was tapped on my shoulder and handed a phone.

I death glared Ryder and he just shoved his phone to my ear. I had no choice but answer.

"Hello?"

"Hi agent AH 2. How are you feeling? Did you get to the house yet?"

"I'm fine. And no we haven't got to the house yet." I answer clodly.

"That's good. Right. See ya." She ended our conversation awkwardly.

"Okay bye." I said before handing Ryder back his phone. Ryder accepted it and finished his conversation with Sandra before cutting of the line and sighing heavily.

The rest of the journey was driven in silence. It wasn't awkward but rather comforting. Ryder fell asleep nearly straight away after he hung up the call. And me? I just sat there, looking out window and listening to music.

The van took a right turn a few minutes ago and now we were in the middle of nowhere. I closed my eyes until the van halted out side of two huge, black gates.

They were majestic. The design was so delicate but yet so powerful.

"Wow!" I gasped, waking Ryder up from his deep  slumber.

When he fully woke up he looked out of the widow of the van. His eyes widened at the sight of the gates infront of him.

"Cool right?" I asked, unable to peal my eyes from the gates.

I got out of the van and was greeted with a small maid whom wore a warm smile.

"Hello and welcome! You must be Camilia." She greeted me warmly while shaking my hand.

"I will be you personal maid. My name is Dolly. Can I just get your finger print. It's for all security and locks. They will need both of your ID's. So if you may, could you put finger on the screen here." She motion towards a touch screen on the side of the entance.

It was for cars. If someone wanted come in they would need my finger print. All I needed to do was stick my hand put of the drivers window and touch the screen. Then boom, were in.

As I walked towards the gates I greeted the security gaurds. Ryder was walking beside amazed at out house.

"This is some 007 shit right here but its all ours." I noted making Ryder chuckle.

"We'll escort you two to your rooms so you can rest." Dolly remarked letting me, Ryder and his butler into the house.

Inside it was spotless. It was practically sparkling. My jaw dropped. I couldn't belive that we would be living in this mansion.

No, this Palace.

Then we got into an elevator. Yes, a frickn elevator.

"How big is this place?" I asked in complete shock, stepping inside the glass elevator.

Dolly just laughed at my question.

"You were tbe one who bought the place. It's under your name. Did you not come and see it first before you bought it?" She responded.

"No I saw the pictures and liked it. So I bought it. But I didn't think it was this big." I lied.

I remembered Sandra telling me not to reveal my cover to anyone. Even if they know. Better to play it safe rather than sorry.

"Are any adults coming to live here with you? You two look very young to be able to pay for all of this. Did your parents pay?" She asked.
