James X the reader

You were working at the Cortez Hotel in Los Angeles for almost 2 weeks now. The place was very luxurious and you were well-paid. You decided to move in L.A. to ran away from your life in Florida and lived your dream: becoming an actress. But you knew that it wouldn't be easy and you would need money. So you looked for a job to save money. You read on internet that the hotel was looking for a new maid. They wanted someone motivated, loyal and not easily afraid. You fit all requirements so you were hired by the owner of the hotel. You never met him personally and you didn't even know what he looked like. However you met a lot of curious people: a really kind transsexual, an elegant blond girl called the countess, a junky even the former maid. You often tried to figure what the owner looked like. People used to say that he was amazingly handsome and you were pretty excited to discover if the rumour was true.

To your opinion this hotel was strange, they were something wrong with it. You wanted to talk about it with your friends but your contract specified that everything that happened inside in the hotel had to stay inside. So you were not allowed to talk about it. Even if you were not someone you could be easily scared you were afraid to become as insane as residents of the place. And the countess inspired you fear. She was always checking what you did, she watched you working quietly. That was very disturbing. You tried once to talk to her but she stayed silent, cold and looked at you in her eyes. There was something in these eyes, something that you were new for you: a mix of fear and disgust; she seemed to hate you and to scare you. You wondered why because you were not a great danger for people in general, you were nice and sweet with the others.

You were cleaning some sheets full of blood and the countess was keeping an eyes on you. When you were hired you didn't realize that you would spend a lot time to clean some bloody sheets. You were curious about it cause to you a maid cleans room, prepares it for client but your job was cleaning bloody stuff. They was something about the blood in this hotel, you felt like you were drowning in it. You heard some footsteps, you were hoping that the countess was leaving the room and you turned your head to check if she was. Unfortunately for you she was still here, smoking with an ironic smile on her lips. You were thinking that she was a bitch when you noticed him. His beauty was beyond the words, pale skin, dark hair and eyes, a pencil moustache, a fancy suit, he was old-fashioned but elegant and sexy as hell. He took a step closer to the countess and whispered something in her ear. She laughed at him bitterly and left the room. You returned to your job. You wondered who he was. You thought that he read your mind when you heard him say "You must Y/N, I'm James Patrick March, the owner of the hotel but you can call me James by the way." you nodded and answered "I was convinced that James Patrick March was the founder of the hotel not the owner but I was wrong". He smiled widely and told you something very mysterious "Why can't I be both?"

"Because you don't seem to be 100 years old" you chuckled.

He walked toward you and helped you to stand up gently. There was mischievousness in his eyes. "Soon enough you will learn that in this hotel nothing is impossible." You were confused. "I'm sorry Y/N you company is charming but the business calls me. I hope to see you more." He kissed the back of your hand and left you alone.

Time skip:

You saw James very regularly since your first meeting. He was always very polite and gentle with you. You began to develop feelings for him even if you discovered the truth about him. After all he seemed very human for a ghost. However you hide your feelings for him, he probably didn't feel the same way for you. Except that nothing really changed and the countess was still stalking and scaring you. You knew that she was the wife of James but she turned to hate him since he made Valentino disappear. She wanted revenge on him.

One day, she asked you to follow her to her room. You panicked but you were too impressed to refuse her invitation. You sat a sofa newt to her, you stayed quiet trying to keep calm.

"Darling I can see you shiver, I know that I scare you but don't worry my child I don't want to hurt you. At the beginning I hated you a lot, you remember me when I was so much younger than today dreaming of a career in Hollywood"

"You wanted to be an actress?!" you exclaimed

"Yes does it sound amazing. A lot of young girls dream of the silver screen and I've been a young girl before I married James." her voice sounded sorrowful. "But that's not the point. I invited you because I turned to appreciate you, you're nice and you work hard. I think that you have talent to realize my dream of little girl. So I decide to give you money to leave the hotel and thanks to it you will focus on castings. Do you accept my proposition?"

You were so chocked, you never expected that, your lost your voice and you felt joy tears rolling on your cheeks.

"I think it means yes." she smiled at you "let have a drink to your future"

You can't believe it that was amazing, more than all you have always dreamt. You accepted the alcohol with a shy smile. You began to drink. Your vision became blurry and you felt yourself falling in darkness.

When you waked up, you were tied up to a chair. The countess in front you smiling devilishly. You wanted to scream but you were gagged.

"You so naïve darling, I never wanted to give you this money. I hesitated a lot on your fate. Finally I decided to transform you."

You began to cry, you were so stupid to believe her. You did not want to die or to be like her.

"I will make you live forever, aren't you glad?" You cried more. "Shhh, darling stop crying, I won't hurt or just a bit. Oh I forget something I want you to leave the hotel just after your transformation." you were shaking. "you certainly wonder why I did that to you. I want my revenge and thank to you I will get it. James broke my heart, took my love away from me and I will do the same. He will know that you're alive but he will not see you again. It gonna break his jet black heart in millions of pieces." When she pronounced these words you stop to sob. Was she telling that James was loving you. You felt happy for a little time and then you remembered that the countess was going to transform you and keep you away from him. She approached you and put a hand on your neck. You veins were beating fast, you heart was racing in your chest. Suddenly you heard someone opened the door and running but it was too late the countess already cut your throat. You felt someone pushed the countess away and taking you in his arms. You knew that it was James. He leaned his head and kissed you passionately, he was crying and apologising "I'm sorry Y/N, I did not want you to die, I wanted you to have an happy life, I'm sorry, this is my fault. I love you so much my dear." That was the last words you heard before you felt in black abyss.

You waked up in his arms, he was still crying. You looked at him, brushed his tears away "we are always forever don't cry" you chuckled and he kissed you softly as he did not want to hurt you. James was right in this hotel nothing was impossible.
