-Alex-
Alex climbed gingerly out of the carriage, taking the opportunity to stretch his sore limbs. He grabbed his sole trunk from the interior of the horse-drawn vehicle and followed the driver inside Kingsley Manor. Alex felt his breath hitch in his throat. So this....this was Kingsley Manor. One of the most important and secretive hunter headquarters in the [i]world[/i] and he was inside? Wow. It was a bit mind-blowing. 
"Pull your hood up. Don't want any of the servants catching sight of you," the driver ordered him gruffly. Alex almost decided to snap back at him, but decided against making enemies on his first day, and complied.
He followed the driver into a luxurious corridor decorated with tapestries and rich, Persian rugs. However, other than the wall hangings, the room was empty. He padded along as the driver discreetly unlocked an inconspicuous doorway and beckoned for Alex to follow him into the basement of Kingsley Manor.
