Live to Spy Another Day

Chapter 1 - Cammie

Two men point their guns at me and a woman walks up.

"Cammie!" I hear my friends call from somewhere behind the gunmen.

"Cammie, darling, its been forever since we last saw each other. Maybe we can get Zach here too and have a nice chat. Oh- and he needs to bring the baby. I still need an heir."

"I will never give you Matthew." I shout at Catherine. Her smile becomes wider.

"You will hand over Matthew or you will never see him and Zach again."

Catherine nods at one gunman and he lowers his pistol for one second and that's all I need. I run up to him and punch him in the face. Catherine catches the pistol and I hear a click and a cold barrel pressed to the back of my head.

"Get the other girls." Catherine demands the two men. "I can handle her myself."

"Bex! Macey! Run!" I shout. Catherine grabs my arm and twists it. She pushes my hand between my shoulder blades and my vision starts blacking out.

"Cammie!"

"Cammie!"

"Cammie, get up!"

"Gallagher girl, calm down. It's just a dream. "

I open my eyes to see Zach over me. With no shirt on, I might add.

"It was just a dream." Zach soothes. "Go back to sleep." He wraps his arms around my waist and I snuggle into his arms. Just as I am about to fall sleep, a wail pierces the house.

"I'll get him Zach. You sleep, you have a mission in the morning."

I head towards Matthew's room before Zach can protest. Mathew is only a month old and I am on leave from work until he is a year old. I walk into Matthew's green room and pick him up out of his crib. I walk around the room a bit, rocking him in my arms.

When he stops crying I sit down in the rocking chair and just hold him until he falls asleep. I wake up with the lights streaming in the room. I look down to see myself still sitting in the rocking chair. Matthew is back in the crib still sleeping.

I pull a robe over my pajama shorts and tank top and pull my hair back into a messy bun.

I walk into the kitchen and pop some waffles into the toaster. On the island is a note from Zach.

*This mission is in New York so I will probably be back tomorrow morning. -Love, Zach*

I open the fridge and pull out a carton of orange juice and pour myself a glass. I eat my chocolate chip waffles and then wash the dishes. I walk back into Matthew's room and pick him up. I walk into the bright living room. The walls and ceiling are made of glass. The forest looks amazing in the upcoming fall. I sit down in a chair and feed Matthew.

I spend the rest of the day taking care of Matthew and cleaning during his naps. Only one month not working and I am already boring. Hopefully Zach can watch Matthew a couple hours so I can visit Mom tomorrow.

Hi!

Part of this chapter is really boring but at least the dream was cool. I need to get in the flow of writing in this style because my specialty is fantasy.

I will only update once a week or sometimes once every two weeks because I am writing four other books.

I am now writing:

*Live to Spy Another Day

*Miss Alexandria's School For Girls

*Love's Triangle (ON HOLD)

*The Dancing Princess (ON HOLD)

*Robin Hood

(there are many stories like this one-my cover shows a girl in a blue dress leaning against a tree in the forest)

I will try to update by next Thursday.

I would have updated this sooner but my school is one of the only ones in the area that isn't closed with all these below zero temperatures and snow.
