The night was wild and I was ready to enjoy a day at the beach with Jameson.

 I packed my stuff and saw Jameson ready with his stuff too and we walked towards the beach. On the way, one person caught my eye. Layla.

 I hated her. Even after last night I still felt insecure about her being HERE. 

I ignored her presence and asked Jameson "Wanna continue solving the mystery ?" 

"Why not" he replied because nothing gets Jameson's blood pumping like a mystery. 

We were walking down the beach and his eyes scanned for intricate details. 

After a while of walking, we found an X wooden board lying there.

"Do you think this 'X' marks the spot of some clue in the beach house?" Jameson pondered aloud.

I shrugged, "It could be. Or maybe it leads to something even more intriguing."

After digging what was hidden underneath the X wooden board we found a tiny box with a lock that required symbols.

"Heiress, do you remember the table you were holding on too? The one with etched symbols?" Jameson asked his voice now getting excited

"The one in the secret room yess that one had symbols and maybe—"

" They are meant for this lock?" he said as if reading my mind.

"We can help you guys with that," Xander said.

I saw Xander holding Max's hands, were they dating?

What had I missed?

"Yes beach you guys need help. Me and Xander will go decode it and give you the goods?" Max said.

"No way" Jameson protested.

"You owe me, Jamie. You played my game (the toby one)Let me just do one thing just once. You guys can have your bit of romance and—" Xander was cut off.

There was a shooting. Skye sent her men. Oren my bodyguard was running trying to get us all in.

Blood. Around me.

Cant feel anything.
