Cy's P.O.V

When I woke up she was gone and the only evidence that she left behind of her presence was her sweet and addictive scent. After getting ready I head to work and immediately get bombarded, exiting the car, by multiple reporters asking questions and taking pictures.

"This is supposed to be an exclusive parking space, get them out of here. Today." I say to one of my workers.

"Of course sir." Heading into the building I can faintly hear him chasing away the reporters, heading straight to the boardroom, I head into my first meeting of the day.

"I did say the deadline for this was today, did I not?" I hold the bridge of my nose in frustration, the room goes silent. "You all have two hours to come up with a solution to this catastrophe or you're all fired. The meeting's over." I say getting up and heading to my office. "Lilly, do I have anything else for today?" I ask my PA and she follows me into my office, holding her folder.

"No sir but your mother did call, she wanted to know if you were available for lunch. I told her I'd get back to her on that. Then the flower shop called, they've run out of hydrangeas and-"

"Tell them to come up with a plan, I want those flowers delivered, am I understood?" She nods.

"I already called every florist in New York sir." I tear my eyes away from my laptop screen, looking at her and she nods again. "I'll call outside on New York, I'm sure they'll have them."

"Anything else?" I ask looking back at the screen.

"Aside from your meeting after lunch, no sir."

"Okay, thank you Lilly."

"What should I tell your mother sir? About lunch."

"I'm busy."

"Of course." She says leaving and I get back to work. "You have Mikey on line one." She announces and I pick up.

"Did you do what I asked ?" I get straight to the point.

"Yes boss, should be on your desk first thing tomorrow morning."

"Good." I say hanging up. Finally, everything is falling into place. After practically spending the whole day in the office I decide to go home early.

Aurora's P.O.V

When I woke up in Cy's arms this morning I literally ran out of there just before the paparazzi got there, it was so early that I didn't want to wake him, he looked so peaceful asleep.

"Hey, talk to me." I say to Kim, answering my phone.

"Hey, just calling to tell you that I'm cooking today so don't pick up takeout on your way back."

"Okay, look babe I gotta go. I have a meeting in two."

"Okay, love you."

"Love you." I say hanging up and grabbing everything I'll need for the meeting. "It was really great you guys, thank you and Paul if you could make the font a little bigger that'd be great."

"You got it Boss." Paul says writing it down.

"Okay well I think that's everything guys, thanks." I say. Everyone starts clearing out and so do I, making my way back to my office I continue to read more scripts.

Two days later....

Cy's P.O.V

The day has finally come and like I predicted my father storms into my office unannounced, pissed off as hell and with Lilly hot on his tale.

"Mr Kensington you can't just-" I faintly hear Lilly's voice.

"Who the fuck do you think you are?!" He roars aggressively pushing my door open, ignoring everyone else's existence except mine. Nothing can wipe away the smirk I have on my face.

"Mr Kensington I am so sorry he just-" I raise my hand stopping her.

"It's okay Lilly, you can go." Giving my father the side eye she nods then leaves, closing my door.

"You cannot just show up here and cause a scene." I reprimand him and he huffs.

"I can do whatever I damn well please boy. Don't forget that I am still the CEO!"

"Of your company. This.." I circulate my finger, gesturing my entire building. "... Is mine. I built this ship and only I steer it so, don't ever storm into my office again." He laughs bitterly.

"You think that you can push me out with this?!" He waves the papers and contract in my face. "You must be mistaken boy, I won't go down without a fight and you better believe I'll die trying." He says throwing them onto my desk.

"Hmm." I smile. "You think I don't know about how you were going to rob me of my company HAD I signed that damn contract to marry Mia? Do you think I'm fucken stupid?!"

"Don't you dare raise your voice at-"

"SHUT UP!" I roar, making him take a step back. "You may have been able to twist my arm, as a little boy, to do all your dirty work but you're in my kingdom now and you will play by my rules. This isn't even half of the amount of incriminating evidence I have built up on you." I say picking up the papers he threw on my desk. "I have every crime you've ever committed, every body you've ever buried and had me bury and anything else you can think of, on document. If I snap my fingers you'll go to jail, for life, your reputation will be ruined and everything you own I will take away from you. So ... if I were you, I'd sign the damn contract and walk away quietly, now get out of my office before I throw you out." He stands there, as if challenging me. "NOW!"

"You'll regret this boy." He says through gritted teeth before storming out. After collecting my thoughts I buzz Lilly's desk, asking her to come into my office.

"Yes Mr Kensington?"

"I'd like you to prepare a press conference for this afternoon." You can see the shock on her face because I usually never personally release a statement to the public, I leave that to my team. The day goes on as I carry on attending meetings until it's time for me to give my statement. "Is everything ready?" I ask my team and they all give me the go ahead.

"You are good to go." Making my way onto the stage I adjust the mic to my liking. "Good day, this announcement is intended to be as brief as possible so I will not waste any more of your time." You can see the reporters ogling each other as they cling to their seats. "My father, Mr Kensington Snr. has decided to graciously step down from his position as CEO and hand over to me, the Kensington Empire. I would also like to take this opportunity to address the rumours regarding Miss Rodríguez and I, we are strictly business partners and old friends, nothing more. Thank you." I say walking off.

"Mr Kensington?!"

"Mr Kensington?!" The room shakes with buzz as all the reporters try to get my attention, shouting my name, trying to ask me questions and immediately my team steps in, denying them access or any comment. After the conference meeting I call my lawyer and hand him the signed contract my father had sent to me not too long ago with a copy of all the evidence I had Mikey compile on him. Finally it's over.

"Lilly, did you have the flowers delivered ?"

"Right on time sir."

"Good, clear the rest of my schedule. I have somewhere important to be." I say leaving and making my way to her. Arriving at her office I walk in and her PA tries to stop me.

"Sir, Sir! You cannot just walk in there without-"

"Cy?" Barging into her office, I disregard her shocked face and pull her into my arms, kissing her as aggressively as I can. Hearing the door close she melts in my arms, letting me devour every corner of the inside of her mouth.

"You taste like Jacques chocolate." I smile against her lips as we catch our breath. She gestures to her desk, showing me that she was just eating it as a snack.

"Cy, what's all this about?" Her sweet voice rings in my ears.

"It's all over baby." I smirk.
