Defending her

In over three years of working as his secretary, this was the first time Kingsley Stone was having a fucking heart.“You're free to go.” He said, and Scarlett’s brows knotted, Her eyes landed on the wall clock in his office and they widened in shock as her feet remained rooted in a spot, barely moving an inch. It was just 5pm and he was letting her off work already.“Didn't you hear me?” His voice came out again, colder this time, and Scarlett instantly shook, forcing her body to move, “Thank you sir.” She murmured and immediately stepped out of his office. Twenty minutes later, Scarlett was walking out of the company with her bag clutching on her shoulder and legs moving to the roadside to get herself a ride.“Taxi.” She got into the car, and it drove off instantly. Mr Stone had never called it a day by 5pm before, especially when there was a pending meeting and she couldn't help but wonder why. If something good really happened today, she had to pray often for a lot more to happe

I miss you Mommy

When Kylie opened her eyes, there was no Damian anywhere. Just an empty bed, but his scent still lingered in the room so much that it made a small smile unknowingly appear on her face before she could realize it. Her mind suddenly slipped back to last night, and at the same time, her fingers hovered around her lips. She remembered kissing him, but the worst part was that she recalled asking for more than a kiss. “Goodness,” Kylie murmured, her cheeks flushing red from embarrassment. She had been so heartbroken yesterday, and his staying beside her at her lowest made him the only man that she could see at that time. When she looked at him, all she could see was a kind and caring man, the kind that she had always wished for back then when Sebastian never seemed to care about her. Kylie didn't know how she was going to face Damian after what happened between them last night. She had no idea if he liked the kiss the way she did last night and if, just like her, it was edged somewhere

By 6 am, Damian opened his eyes to find he had fallen asleep beside Kylie. He'd only meant to rest for a few minutes around 3 am, after watching over her for hours, but exhaustion had caught up with him before he noticed. The position had left his neck stiff, his back still resting against the headboard, one arm having stayed wrapped around her through the night without his permission. He groaned quietly and carefully eased his arm free. Rising to his feet, Damian lingered a moment, staring down at her peaceful figure. Some part of him wanted to press a kiss to her forehead before leaving, but he caught himself. If he did that, he wasn't sure he'd be able to walk away at all. He discarded the thought quickly, unsure how she would react waking up to find him still there. Picking up his suit jacket from the chair, he slipped quietly out of the room. Once in his car, he sat still for a moment, staring up at Kylie's building before finally pulling away. "Son, what happened? You didn'

Dinner time

After the show, Kiara pointed at a big truck meters away from the building, "Ice cream." She murmured slowly, tugging at Kylie's cloth, "No ice cream on an empty stomach, baby; it'll really upset your stomach. How about you have dinner first?" Kiara frowned instead. She wasn't used to being told no by anyone, not even Damian, but because it was Kylie, she nodded her head, "Will you stay with me?" "Of course, baby." Kylie smiled, squeezing her small hand. "I'll stay as long as you want me to." Satisfied, Kiara let herself be led back to the car, already yawning by the time Damian pulled her seatbelt across her lap. It didn't take long for the day to catch up with her, and within minutes of the car pulling away from the venue, she was fast asleep, her head tilted against the window. Kylie glanced back at her a few times during the ride, grateful for the excuse to look anywhere but at Damian's hand still resting on the gear shift, close enough to hers that she could feel the warm
