I don't exactly know how I got myself into this precarious situation. I could feel eyes on me from the darkness. I could hear their whispered accusations that I was no good for their world. I would forever be an outcast. To them, I was nothing more than a trespasser they found on their property. I was invading their private lives and that was not okay with them. To be honest, it was completely unsettling. I never thought of myself as much of a bother. I always thought I was pretty nice to everyone else. I guess I wasn't after all. Maybe I was just annoying and probably even a little bit snippy with the people that were kind enough to take me in. Maybe I should have thought twice before snooping in the Kinston's household. I probably shouldn't have gone as far as Duchess Kinston's personal chambers. Maybe then I wouldn't have gotten caught. Then again, I suppose it was only a matter of time. I had a sneaking suspicion that Duchess Kinston had been onto my shenanigans long before I ever stepped foot into her chambers. I suspect that she left her door unlocked for that reason, and that reason alone, to catch me in the act.
It all started two weeks ago when my boss called me in to hand me a new assignment. This assignment was to find out about the Kinston’s personal affairs with international and illegal drug trafficking. And as this was my first decent case in a while I wasn’t about to refuse. When I arrived in Minia, which is under the rule of King Victor and Queen Monique, I posed as a poor teen that had nowhere to go. Duchess Kinston was kind enough to take me in but I had to have messed up somewhere. When I was detained she had asked me what my name was and who I worked for. Of course I wasn’t stupid enough to give her the real answer. The answer I gave her was Dahlia Rhodes. The true answer was Kristina Lowell, or Special Agent KL as my boss always enjoyed calling me. No one outside my family, friends and the department ever knew who I was. And they never would if I had anything to say about it.
The sound of a door opening, at the end of the hall to my left, was what brought me back to the truth, the reality of my very delicate situation.
-I want to know what you guys think so far, it's a new idea I'm playing with-
