SUMMARY: How does it feel to be the last one standing? Miranda Priestly should know. All of the RUNWAY editors but her have been viciously murdered, and now the Killer is after her, revealing she was his main target all along. The best agent available is sent to protect her, 007 himself. Will he be enough to stop this vicious murderer? Who is this psychopath? And just how close will Miranda and James get?
Ch. 14
A few minutes later James arrived at an apartment complex across town. James jumped out of the car and saw the waiting policemen. “Is he in there?” James asked an officer close to him. “Yes, we have him surrounded. We had orders from high up to wait on you to get here, are you sure you’re up to this man? I mean with your shoulder in a sling and all?” the officer asked. “Yes.” James replied and pulled out his gun. “All right, now I want everyone to follow me in and back me up, there is no way and hell I’m going to let this guy get away, he will be stopped.” James said. All of the officers got into place and James had a bullet proof vest put on and then he signaled with his hand and the officers radioed several others from different entrances and then James started leading the group towards the apartment, where their killer lay waiting.

Miranda sat in her office and did her best not to fidget “Please let him be alright.” Miranda whispered and looked up to find Nigel in her doorway. “Has James called you yet?” he asked. “No, he hasn’t, but it’s only been about 20 minutes so I see no reason to be worried, after all he did have to get there first, and I’m sure he wouldn’t just go storming into some building like a lunatic. Then again from what M has told me that could be a possibility.” Nigel looked at her, and closed her office door. “You do realize it will be slightly difficult to have a private conversation in this building.” Nigel joked referring to the fact that just about every office in RUNWAY had glass walls, including Miranda’s and Nigel’s. Miranda let the corners of her mouth tip up. “yet that didn’t stop you from bursting in here earlier and informing me that I was in love now did it?” Miranda said. “No your right it absolutely did not, but I couldn’t help it, and besides it was only a few minutes after you got here, everyone in the office was still trying to compose themselves from seeing you. They were all hoping you would be staying out of the office today, much to their disappointment.” Nigel said. “Nigel come with me to the main conference room, it’s the only place here, other than the closets that do not have glass walls, and so having the conversation you want to have will have to take place either there or in a closet and you mentally incompetent if you think we will be having this discussion in a closet.” Miranda said and got up. They walked out of her office together. “Emily, Nigel and I are not to be disturbed unless I get an important call from James. That’s all.” Miranda said as she breezed past. “Yes Miranda” Emily replied. Miranda and James made their way to the conference room at the other end of the RUNWAY floor and as soon as the door was shut Nigel turned to her and asked her “Does James know?”

James and the other officers arrived outside the door of apartment 304, and James carefully picked the lock and then turned to the other officers. “On the count of three.” James said. “One, two…three!” James turned the knob and flung open the door and held his gun up. “KYLE BLANKINDHIP, COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP YOU SON-OF-A-BITCH!” James yelled as he advanced further into the room with the police behind him. A young, well built man came out of a room, which appeared to be a bedroom, and sneered. “What the fuck is going on here you assholes?” Kyle asked. “You know exactly what this is about you homicidal bastard.” James said and advanced on him. “Oh! You must be talking about the murders of all of those precious RUNWAY editors, I recognize you, yes you’re the infamous James Bond! Sent to protect the only editor there was left to kill. The most profitable RUNWAY magazine and the most famous, most beautiful of the editors, the legend herself, Miranda Priestly. Well congratulations.” He said and started clapping his hands. “It’s a shame really, she really is quite gorgeous, I would just love to be able fuck her senseless, fuck that frigid look right off of her face. That video of you two on Irv’s jet was quite steamy. Tell me have you managed to get past second base with her yet? If so just how good is she? Is she as frigid in bed as she is in everyday life? What does she taste like?” Kyle asked. James couldn’t take the way he was talking about Miranda any longer and he lunged at the man. Quickly pinning him to the ground; ignoring the mild pain in his shoulder. One of the officers tossed a pair of handcuffs to him and James secured them tightly to the killer. “Your under arrest you sorry bastard, and you better thank God there was a room full of police men here with me otherwise you could have kissed you sorry, good for nothing ass goodbye for what you just said about Miranda.” James said and got up and then roughly yanked the man up.”Get this jack ass out of my sight before I kill him.” James said and shoved him to some of the officers. James and a couple of the other officers then walked and searched the house. James opened the man’s bedroom and stared in shock at what he saw.

“Does James know what Nigel?” Miranda asked as she sat down in a chair. “You know very well what I’m talking about, Miranda. Does James know why M was so intent on sending her best agent to protect you?” “No, he doesn’t he has an idea why, that I’m sure of, most of all I just haven’t gotten around to telling him yet, and I mean if M wanted him to know she would tell him Nigel.” Miranda said and rolled her eyes. “Miranda darling, circumstances have changed slightly here. He is in love with you, and you are in love with him, when he gets back, and he will by the way don’t worry about that. You know what he can do. Anyways when he gets back you need to tell him, and then you need to inform M so she doesn’t try to strike him dead. He needs to know exactly who he has been protecting, Miranda. He needs to know that he has fallen in love with his boss’s niece.” “I know Nigel, he asked me about it before in passing, I have intended on telling him sooner or later, I was honestly a little shocked when he asked me that question, I thought M had told him that she was my aunt. So I didn’t say anything then, I didn’t know where this was going, and honestly Nigel I still don’t.” Miranda said. Nigel shook his head. Just inform him and then inform M. Because you and I both know that M is not going to be pleased when she finds out he defied her order not to get involved with you.” Miranda smirked “Nigel, I’m sure M is used to be displeased by him anyways, according to her he is constantly defying her orders.” Nigel laughed. “This is true.” He said. “Now, don’t you worry, I’m sure James will be calling any minute to tell you they have caught whoever’s doing this. I’m assuming you still don’t know his name.” Miranda shook her head. “Thank you Nigel.” Miranda said. “That’s what friends are for.” He said and then they both left the office.

James stood in the middle of the man’s bedroom and couldn’t believe what he was seeing. The room was covered in pictures of Miranda, some were marked out with red x’s and some where circled, or had targets on them. James shook his head. He was going to be locked behind bars, and had a good chance of being sentenced to death. James stepped out of the room and pulled out his phone. He decided to call Miranda’s cell directly.
~*~
“Hello” Miranda said. “Miranda, my gorgeous Miranda, we caught him he is being taken down to the police station now, you’re in the clear, he can’t hurt you anymore, you’re safe.” He said. Miranda sat down in her office chair and breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you James, if it weren’t for you I would be dead right now.” “Don’t mention it, I’d do it all again in a heartbeat for you. I have a few things to finish up with here, but I should be back at RUNWAY in time for you to leave, you don’t need a body guard anymore, but I would still like to ride to the townhouse with you.” He said. “I would love nothing more darling. There is something I need to tell you this evening.” She said. “All right I can’t wait to hear it gorgeous. I will see you in a couple of hours. I love you.” He said. “And I you.” They ended their phone call and James turned around to the other officers and they headed out the door and to the station, he would call M on the way and inform her they had captured Kyle, then he would take care of anything needed to be taken care of. “I don’t care what that damn doctor said, I will be making love to Miranda tonight.” James thought to himself as he walked out of the building.

Miranda hung up her phone and smiled. “Emily” she called and a few seconds later Emily appeared in the doorway. “Inform Nigel that James has everything completed successfully, that’s all.” She said and Emily scurried off. Miranda picked up her phone and dialed Cassidy’s phone. Miranda rolled her eyes when she got her voice mail. ‘Hello Bobbsies it’s mommy, I have some wonderful news for both of you, James has caught the man behind everything, mommy is going to be safe now. I hope you two are having a wonderful time with your father, and I cannot wait to see you back home in a couple of days. Call mommy when you get this my darlings.” She said and hung up. She looked at her watch. It was 4 p.m. they were probably playing basketball with their father. Miranda heard a knock at the door and looked up to see Irv standing the doorway. “Yes Irv?” “I just heard that James caught the man who has been doing this, I heard Emily telling Nigel. Since you are free and clear I would like to go to a late lunch with you, we never go to have our meeting yesterday because of that unfortunate incident and I would like to reschedule that for now, I know your schedule is free so grab your coat and bag, while I inform Emily.”

Miranda refrained from rolling her eyes and got u to follow her boss to a late lunch meeting. “Just what I wanted to do with the rest of my day.” Miranda thought. They walked outside the Elias Clarke building and through the swarm of paparazzi and climbed into Irv’s car. They pulled away from the curb and sat in uncomfortable silence as the car drove through New York. Miranda checked her email from her phone and when she looked up she noticed they were heading into a poorer, more deserted part of Manhattan. She looked over at Irv and noticed he was fidgeting. They turned down an alley and the car stopped outside an old warehouse. “Irv, what is the meaning of all of this?” Miranda said impatiently. Irv reached over and threw her phone out the window, smashing it. The driver got out of the car, and Miranda sat stiff as a board. “I told you I would come for you Miranda, I told you, when you were least expecting it I would come for you, I told you that I would have my way with you and that I would kill you, and now that time, has finally come.” Irv looked over at her and Miranda’s door was yanked open by the driver, and Miranda was seized and immediately gagged so she couldn’t scream, and tied up by Irv and his driver. She squirmed and squirmed but to no avail, they were too strong for her. Then they placed a cloth over her mouth and nose and Miranda gasped and tried to shove it away, but it was too late Miranda felt her eyelids getting heavy, then they closed, and just before everything went black she heard. “Open the door so I can carry her inside, I will call you when I’m through here” Irv said. Then she fell into an unconscious state….TBC!!
