Valerie“Mommy, can I try some of yours?” Freya whispers. I smile and place a piece on her plate. “What is it called?”“Pasta alla gricia. It’s similar to yours, with a few different ingredients,” I explain. She tries the bite and smiles. “It’s good right?”“Yes,” she whispers and nod. When she starts to get full, she sets her fork down. “Mommy, can I bring my leftovers home? My belly hurts.”“Don’t over stuff yourself. We’ll take both of ours home,” I answer. “Thank you,” She whispers. When Lincoln sets his fork down, and wipes his mouth, Freya knows he’s finished eating. “Did you like it?”“It was very good, thank you for suggesting it,” Lincoln replied. “They give a lot for their serving.”“It’s because we’re in this room,” Freya says. “How do you know that?” Lincoln asked.“The owner told Uncle Hudson that it’s a secret,” Freya stated. Which tells me Anton told her that it’s a secret, which means these are the serving sizes he gets here, but others are smaller. “A

Anton I finish up with my third meeting of the day, and glance at my phone. I see Val sent me a message twenty minutes ago. ‘The school called; Freya fell asleep in art class. I was in a meeting and missed their call. When I called back, they said she’s in the nurse’s office and needs to be picked up. If she’s not picked up within the hour, they will call Lincoln to come get her. I told them I’ll send someone. Please tell me you can spare time to pick her up from school. I’m fine if Ethan needs to watch her, I just don’t want to have them contacting him after I made it clear he’s to have no unsupervised contact with her. I even submitted the custody order.’ ‘I’m on my way,’ I reply. I leave my office, get in the car and order the driver to step on it. I send Ethan a message warning him to keep an eye out for Lincoln; he is not allowed to leave the premises with Freya. I arrive at the school and climb out of the car ready to fuck someone up but

Two weeks laterValerie I’ve spent the last week pulling all financial records for Carter Associated and having my accounting team audit their files in preparation for the board meeting happening in 4 days. I want every dollar accounted for, along with a detailed invoice for each payment. If Lincoln has been misappropriating funds from the company, it’ll give me a solid reason to petition for his immediate removal as CEO of Carter Associated. My phone pings as I look out my office window overlooking the city. I open the lock screen and smile when I see a message from Anton asking if I can spare time for lunch with him. He has been sending me little gifts to the office, as he doesn’t want to confuse Freya before we talk to her about our relationship. I know we should discuss it with her before she catches us doing something. I reply that I will meet him in the garage in ten minutes. I leave my office, telling Madeline that I’m having l

Freya “Freya, princess,” Anton calls me out of my room. “Yes, Daddy,” I answer walking to the top of the stairs. “I have to run and handle a quick issue with work. I promise I will be at family day before the games start,” Anton says. He looks sad telling me this. “Mommy has a way to see where I am on her phone. If you ask, she’ll show you how close I am to the field, okay?” “Okay, Daddy. You go fix the issue. Mommy and I will meet you at the field,” I reply. “Be good for Mommy. Don’t forget, Uncle Hudson will also be meeting us at the field,” Anton reminds me. “He should be getting into the city on time.” “I remember, Daddy. Go so you’re not late!” I shout at him with a giggle. “I love you, Princess.” “I love you more, Daddy.” He walks to the sofa and kisses Mommy before leaving. Mommy told me that they may be getting married soon, and I’m excited. If th

Valerie The games are beginning to wrap up, and Freya is hopeful for the overall win. She’s one a handful of the competitions alternating between Anton, Hudson, and myself as her partners. The main thing we focused on is how much fun we had doing the activity together as a family. The final one was tug of war, which we won all of, even against a family of seven, but three of their seven were kids. When the trophy to the family who won the most is about to be announced, I move over to my brother. “Once the trophies are handed out, please take Freya and leave,” I whisper in his ear. He turns his head to give me a questioning look. “I’ve prepared a special thank you to the school and families, and Freya doesn’t need to relive it.” “Don’t let them off easy,” he replies with a smile. I move back to the other side of Anton. Freya is excitedly standing between both men. I lean into Anton. “How many men do you have here?” I ask.
