KAMARIA POV The other team went next. The woman picked and looked, immediately her face crumbled and she went back to her team with a sore expression on her face. Her team looked worried when she opened her palms to show them what she got. It looked as if she got the last number, I thought dipping my hand into the bowl. No she didn't, that honour goes to me. When I returned to my team and told them our number they looked more worried than the other team. They were scared and I could understand why. Going last means that you risk presenting something another team have already presented or you end up with a tired audience. There was nothing we could do about it. The lady left with the order of our companies and then came back a few minutes later to call in the first group. The lanky guy and his group stood and followed her leaving the rest of us to brew in tension. I did my best to relax my mind, to tell myself that I am more than prepared, to assure myself that nothing will go wron

DAMIEN POVThe door to her office opened swiftly at the guy from before quickly appeared. "Is everything alright?" He was staring at Kamaria as he asked the question. Who the fuck is this guy? "Do you mind?" I scowled at him, my eyes burning him down to the ground. He acted as if I haven't spoken and waited for Kamaria to speak. What is he? Her bodyguard? I looked at her propelling her to send the guy out so we could continue our discussion. I needed to know why she is keeping me from my child. Is bad enough she kept me away from her for so many years. "It is alright Reign," she gave the guy a shaking smile. The guy didn't move a muscle but instead continued to stare at her intently as if he wanted to make sure she was really alright and not lying to him. Which she probably was, but it is none of the fucking guy business who ever he is. "Will you please get the fuck out, I am trying to have a serious discussion here!" I yelled losing my patient with the both of them. They can

KAMARIA POV We had a good time with Reign inserting few jokes here and there. His presence have always made our small family feel whole. "Ready for your fun rides?" I teased my daughter as we stood from our seats, belly full with food and drinks. She grinned widely at me showcasing the gap between her two front upper teeth. The rest of the day went with no incident and just us having fun at the park. As we were driving home Davina fell asleep at the back. "Looks like we worn her out," Reign looked back towards a sleeping Davina. I looked at the rear view mirror she was leaning against the window glass with her eyes closed and her mouth dropping a little. I stared at her with so much emotions inside me. The maternal instinct in me urging me to do everything to keep my girl with me. She is better off with me, this I know. There was no way in hell I was going to allow the Blacks raise my daughter. I will never let Elizabeth Black dig her tentacles into my daughter. The Black Mat

DAMIEN POVAs I drew closer to the door I could hear voices speaking inside. They were whining and moaning about the contract. I opened the door and walked in. Just like outside their jaws dropped at my presence. "Boss, what are you doing here?" My creative director enquired while his team looked at each other as if they could figure out the reason for my presence on each other's face. They do look worried, which I must say they have a good reason to be. I took out my phone and called the head of HR. "Hello, sir," he voice came on immediately. "I want you to send out advert for a new creative director, and this time I will be conducting the interview." I ended the call before the man on the other end could say something and then turned to face the now fired director. He looked flummoxed, like he couldn't believe what was happening. He should have seen it coming. Losing to an upcoming company. What an embarrassment. "In case you somehow didn't catch what that was. You are fired!

KAMARIA POV This is the first time I am going to see my parents after ten years there was no way I was going with a man in tow. We finished our breakfast while chatting and laughing with each other. To an outsider it looked like such a domestic scene. After we were done with breakfast I sent Davina off to pack her things while Reign and I cleaned up. "Does your decision have anything to do with what happened yesterday?" I nodded. "Partially," I added. He gave me a questioning look, which I answered. "I need to see my parents, I can't keep pushing it off, and this gives me the perfect excuse to do it." He nodded with nothing on his face. "I hope you know I am here if you need my help." "I know," I said softly. "How long do you plan to stay?" "I will stay till you come back." "And the office in London?" "I think they can manage without me for few days, that is how long your trip will take?" I looked away. I don't know. I know running away isn't the answer but I wasn't sur
