catch his attention , he ignored them, pretending he hadn’t seen them. James walked out of his club and asked Leo to get him a cab to take him to Possession.
    He waited while Leo talked to the taxi firm. They used one who knew the score and kept their mouths shut.
    Once inside, the driver didn’t speak to him or acknowledge his presence. James stared out of the window trying to get the black and red haired beauty out of his mind.
    At the gate to Possession, he typed in the twelve digit number for his access code. The gates opened and immediately shut when the car drove down the path leading up to the house. When the taxi stopped, he paid some money for them to wait while he was inside.
    He was surprised to see there was no doorman when he entered. James kept his coat and made his way down to Stephen’s office.
    Lucas and Sean were coming down the stairs looking like they’d just been to hell. He saw Lucas give him a nod of the head before leaving.
    “I’m surprised to see you here,” Sean said. The man looked like he’d aged twenty years.
    “Are you still drinking from the bottle?” James asked.
    “No, I drink from the glass and keep the bottle close by.” Sean walked away leaving Lucas and James alone.
    “Where is the doorman?”
    “I think you need to talk to Stephen.”
    Lucas walked past him leaving James alone.
    He knocked on the door and heard his friend’s muffled voice letting him know the door was open.
    Walking into the room James was shocked by what greeted him. There were piles of paperwork on the table. Dane sat in the centre of the room looking through some of the mounds of paperwork.
    Stephen looked up. “James? Is that you?”
    “The one and only . What’s going on?” James asked, stepping around the room.
    “I finally emptied the basement of the house that Dad kept hidden. These are all the backlogs of files on the members of Possession.” Stephen went back to reading.
    “Why don’t you have a doorman?”
    “He quit when he was attacked at the door by a pair who’d managed to get an access code to the gate. They didn’t look like regulars. They were members of the press. After the attack there was an exposé on the people who worked here. I compensated him, and his job will still be here when all this crap dies down.” Stephen explained without looking up.
    James looked at the never ending paperwork.
    “How did they get the access codes?”
    “Someone hacked our security. I’ve had Tate and Kevin put a tighter lock on things. I’m hoping it will hold up any possible threat. I’ve had it up to here with them.” Stephen raised his hand above his head.
    Dane hadn’t looked up at him. James didn’t like this other man. For him, he represented all the crap that was happening. If it weren’t for men like him then he wouldn’t be in this position , and maybe Prudence wouldn’t be breaking into his thoughts.
    “I’m getting them to boost my security. How is Ursula handling things?” he asked. He liked the other woman. She made Stephen calm and showed him what it meant to be a possessive man.
    “She’s not saying anything. I know she hates the fact she can’t finish her degree. Her family are being difficult. They’re worried about her being with me. It is a mess. Eugene really fucked everything up for us.”
    Eugene Black was the man responsible for putting Possession and Ravage in the spotlight.
    If James could get his hands on the little fucker he’d have killed him all over again.
    “Why are you going through the old files and all the old members?” James asked.
    “To see if I’ve missed something. I’m following my gut in this one, James. I think there is an answer in here.  I have no idea what. Ursula thinks I’m barking mad.”
    “Is this because of Lloyd Black?”
    “Partly. You do know he was friends with our parents, don’t you?”
    James shook his head. He hadn’t known. James frowned as he recalled what Stephen had said about the files being in the
