Chapter 1

Miley's POV
The bastard. The fool. The devil. That's what he was, a good for nought devil. Grrr he made my blood boil. How dare he? Knowing she would succumb for the health of her best friend, oh that scoundrel. If not for being able to bring Demetrea, better known as Demi to friends, with her, she would have let her hand and his face have the most beautifully powerful connection known to man. How long would she have to spend in his property? How long until Selena would have her full health restored? When would she be able to live her life as normal with no demon watching her every move? These questions race in her head as she aggressively filled her case with suitable attire, undergarments and necessities releasing her anger with small mumbles and groans.

"Miley! Calm down!" a shocked Demi states as she enters the room.

"I will not calm down Demi! I have no idea why I agreed to put up with that devil until Sel gets better. Why do I get myself into these situations?" I answer with a groan as I enter a seated position on my bed. Demi makes her way to the bed and sits beside me placing her arm around me.

"Because Mi, you love Selena, the same way I love her, and as compensation for loving her, we'll have to put up with her brother, whom she loves. So please, as hard as it may be, just be good to Nicholas. His home is a large one with uncountable rooms and a wide space, you may not even come to his presence, if you do, show courtesy, for Selena, please."

"Very well, but I swear he takes one step out of line and I will not be held responsible for my actions" she warns her far more formal friend.

"Well I can't argue with that now can I?" she replies with a giggle, "Well, are you ready so we can start this rather long episode quickly so it finishes soon."

"Yes, let's make our way" she replies with a giggle but with a roll in her eyes.

With all our possessions in our grasp, we make their way to the door and open it to find an unknown man in their presence.
"May we help you?" questions a confused me.

"Sir Grey informed me that you both would be staying with him so I should come to collect you and your possessions and take you there by carriage" a young man nervously responds.

I snort, "Well, tell Sir Grey we are not in need of your services, we can get there on our own."

"Wait Miles, think about it, it's much easier for us to take this ride than walking there and returning for our other possessions, also it starts us of on the stay we will have with Nicholas. It is a kind gesture." Demi retorts.

I scoff and racks my brain for some sort of excuse to get out of it but can come up with nothing so I let out a deep sigh and grab my bags and stomps to the carriage placing them there before turning back to collect my other possessions to place in the carriage before sitting there huffing as I watch Demi and the young man approach the carriage with Demetrea's belongings in sight before taking their places and making their way to Sir Grey's home.

Walking with about as much enthusiasm as a dying tortoise, I continue to mutter as we entered the boat. What kind of cocky bastard lived on a boat anyway? Typical male, trying to show off his wealth to gain attention of women and the praise of men. Oh great the man himself. Nicholas Grey. The guy with everything, the money, the power, the fame, the looks, the women, the cockiness. Oh he had nerve "Call me Nick dear". Bullshit. Soon enough I'm graced in his presence as he greets Demi politely and turns to me before smirking at me and slowly saying my name. I think I'm going to be sick but as I feel Demi's eyes bore into my soul as our previous discussion comes into mind so instead I suck it up and shoot him a sweetly sarcastic smile and compliment him. He continues to smirk before informing both of us about the home.

"So ladies, as you can see the home is quite large" he begins as he turns around to lead us around, snob, "straight down this corridor is my private study, if I'm needed whist in there just knock and I shall come to you. To the left of this is the dining room where everyone including the staff and whoever joins for the evening meal." so the snob has a heart, very hard to believe, "Now down these stairs are the kitchen and laundry room as well as some of the rooms I allow the help to stay in if they need it and further down are some more rooms for my staff. Now if you follow me up these stairs, I shall show you the bedrooms."

Ok, so I had to admit the boat was quite stunning, it had the most beautiful renaissance theme to it and it looked quite extravagant, something of which Shakespeare would have described in one of his plays. And I was quite impressed with his hospitality to his help and noted it down for future reference. As we were led to the staircase leading to the top deck, Nick stepped to the side allowing Demi to pass first followed by me, as I took one step by another step I felt a strong hand placed at the end of my back almost guiding me. I quickly realised whose hand it was and moved it aggressively shooting Nicholas a deadly glare to receive yet another one of his regular smirks as I rolled my eyes. As we reached the top, Nicholas began to speak yet again.

"So on the top deck, we have 5 grand bedrooms however, I failed to inform you that we would be having guests. My cousin Joe Grey will be residing here with our well trusted companion Taylor Black. So 2 of the rooms will be occupied, however they are the smallest rooms and the other small bedroom is currently occupied by Selena's maid who is close by for any emergencies so some rooms will have to be shared. Ms Demetrea, I have had an extra bed inserted in Selena's room for you to accompany her with, Tom will be bringing up your things now."

I suddenly froze and turned to Nicholas and asked him with some uncertainty, "Where will I be staying?"

He shot yet one of his familiar smirks and bends down to my ear before he whispers in a husky tone, "Oh but you will be with me in my chamber m'dear."
