Miles woke with a start. The house was rocking, and it took him a moment to remember where he was.
There was a bloody loud bang and as Miles realised they were in Upper Slaughter, he heard another explosion and he was trying to shake the sleepiness out of his head even as he realised something was definitely very wrong.
Daphne was next to him in bed and he checked to see she was all right. "What the fuck is going on?" he said to her, as she was now awake as well. He was already halfway out of bed, looking out the window.
