Mary (Ma'Kai's Mother)

"Marcus!"

"What's going on Mary? I'm on a conference call"

Mary sighed and gazed at her features in the vanity in her room. The bags forming under her eyes looked and made her feel older. She checked her watch knowing she needed to pick up Amiyah and Syre from summer camp shortly.

She exited the room and headed to her husband's office adjacent their bedroom. She entered as he placed his phone down.

"Come here my love, somethin' looks like it's bothering you?"

Mary walked over to her husband and placed herself on his lap her hands wrapped around his neck and head.

"Is there anything you can do to help out our baby? Anybody you know? Someone's trying to rip apart her family and I'm tired of her being on edge all the time."

Marcus sighed if anyone knew how involved he was his family will be destroyed.

"I'll see what I can do, I have a few people I can call they owe me a favor anyways."

Mary's face lit up, "That'll be greatly appreciated" she placed a kiss on his forehead "I'm gonna pick up those grandkids of ours and then we can spend the evening watching a movie."

Marcus watched his wife sashay out the room and close the door behind her he picked up his phone and dialed a number.

The person picked upon the last ring. "Mr.-Mr. Hastings? Um- what can I help you with?"

"Fix this shit Lacey and I know I don't have make a call again. I need Ma'Kai and Omere back home in one piece and ALIVE."

Marcus hung up before getting a response he rubbed his temples slowly before returning back to work.

He just hoped everything goes smoothly.

Ma'Kai

Ma'Kai stared at the phone in Lacey's hand her fathers voice still bouncing off the walls. Lacey's mouth slowly tilted up into a smirk. Which on the inside she was shittin bricks.

"Daddy dearest isn't so innocent now is he?"

Before she could realize what she was doing Ma'Kai flew a punch into Lacey's face.

"Your ass is supposed to be dead! What do you want with Omere? What do you want with my family Lacey? I have been nothing but a good friend to you and yet you're the same one making my life a living hell! So please tell me what I ever did to you?"

Ma'Kai continued to throw punches until she realized Lacey wasn't punching back.

She stepped back a little and stared at an unconscious Lacey, not feeling an ounce of guilt for her tattered face.

Micah and Dylan released Rachel and she flew over to Lacey attending to her wounds. She carried her into the corner of the room away from the women.

Seeing that Rachel wasn't going to cause anymore harm, Micah and Dylan went over to Kai's side as she looked over Omere's features, she placed her hands over his and tears immediately fell down her eyes.

"Babe it's me Ma'Kai I need you to wake up, well, we need you to wake up. The kids miss you and Amiyah oh she's growing so big."

She kissed all over his face repeatedly just happy to be in his presence again.

At that moment, Omere gave Kai's hand a little squeeze, luckily the nurse was right at her side and decided to run a few tests, calling in the doctor.
