Royal looked up as the physician came into the space. She wasn’t what he’d been expecting when he’d been told she was the best at working with trauma survivors. She was petite, with black glasses and her hair knotted at her nape but it was the crushed velour track suit which made him pause. She looked like she had just rolled out of bed. He started to question the recommendation he’d taken from the counsellor who had been seeing Precious all along.“Precious and Royal?” The woman spoke softly. “I’m Doctor Rivera. Please come on in.”He rose to his feet and called to Precious who was coloring at a table nearby. “Come on Precious,” He motioned for her to go.“No. I want to finish my picture.” She shot him an angry sideways glance. She’d been angry with him since she’d woken up after midnight, again at four and then at six.He took a breath, “Precious, I know you

“What are you doing here?” Famke asked Royal. “Where’s Precious?”“Sleeping,” he motioned to the booth where her feet hung off the edge. “She fell asleep on the ride here and wouldn’t wake up when we arrived. She’s too tired.” He held his arms out, “come here.”She rushed into his arms, and he wrapped them around her tight and squeezed her, inhaling deeply of her hair and nuzzling her neck.She was vaguely aware of Nyx being yanked by Koda through the swinging doors of the coffee shop and the man telling Keshaun he was going to use his office for a bit. She fought the giggle as she snuggled against Royal’s chest.“I missed you, baby girl.”“I missed you too,” her eyes opened to look beyond him to the booth. Everything in her screamed to run and hold the child but fear of making Precious even more terrified than she already was, compelled her

The sound of crying made Famke look up from where she was preparing a coffee for a customer and saw Royal stop what he was doing to go to Precious who had still been sleeping in the booth. Nyx was sitting there with her, and Koda was sitting opposite Nyx, not saying anything but staring intently at his ex-employee.Famke tried to steady her thrumming heart as she finished the coffee and handed it to the waiting customer, and she was torn between making the next one or running to Precious. She was still terrified of the child’s reaction to her, despite Royal’s reassurances. She was holding her breath as she watched from the corner of her eye as Royal scooped her up from behind Nyx.“I want my Mommy!” Precious shrieked at the top of her lungs, drawing stares from the few people sitting in the café. Her eyes connected with Famke’s over the coffee machine, and she was squiggling out of Royal’s grasp. “Mommy!” She raced

Famke leaned in the doorway of the room where Precious was curled up on her side as Royal adjusted her blankets again. Despite the fact she had wanted “Mommy Famke” during the afternoon, as the sun had gone down, Precious’s behavior had become more erratic and by the time they had gotten her back to the hotel and into bed, she’d been a cranky hellion who didn’t want Famke anywhere near her.“She’s out, huh?” she whispered as he turned on the baby monitor.“For now,” he sighed as he moved into the living area of the suites. “Since Christmas Day she hasn’t had more than two or three hours of consecutive sleep. She’s played out and I’m hoping she gets the rest her body needs.”“Are you sure you don’t mind me crashing? Will she be upset if I stay? I know you weren’t expecting me to come down with an overnight bag.”“Are you kidding? I’

Famke crawled up the bed where Royal had reclined waiting for her to come back from the bathroom. She was wearing nothing but the white button up shirt he’d left hanging in there and it was wide open.“I thought this might be nicer to sleep in than my fuzzy pjs.”He licked his lips boldly. “That shirt never looked as good on me as it does you.” He smiled as she straddled his hips and sat atop him his shirt draped over her shoulders. He pushed it further open and cupped her breasts. “This body is the stuff of my dreams.”“You’ve said it once or twice.” She smirked down at him as she watched his hooded eyes narrow at her boldness while she leaned into his grasp. She rotated her hips over him and saw his chest puff up with the motion. “I missed you Royal.”“Care to show me how much?” he lifted his hips. “Your lips around my dick would be incredible.”&ldquo
