Seira pov
"Thank you. Bernerd." I said to him as we reached a fancy looking hall. Before he could go away, i remembered something.
"Bernerd?"
"Yes Ma'am?"
"Please make sure Jess gives Damon a glass of milk and not coffee." For a minute he looked a little amused but nodded.
"And please call me Seira."
"Sure...Seira."I went in the lavish hall where all the Serpent players and their families celebrated with drinks.
I wish Damon was here.
"There you are!" Gabriel pointed and everyone suddenly began cheering and applausing. "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my daughter in law and co captain, Seira!" And they clapped again."Where is Damon?" Gabriel whispered.
"Busy in a meeting." I whispered back.
"Missing him?"
"Yeah."
"I have a question." I asked still whispering.
"Why are we whispering?"
"I dont know."
We began chuckling when Paula showed up with Aaron on her side in a dashing suit while she wore a dark maroon dress."My baby! How are you?" She engulfed me in a bear hug where Aaron smiled at me from the back. She rubbed me back twice and pulled back. "Ah, where is Damon?" She was surprised.
"Busy at a meeting."
"As usual. Anyways, im taking my daughter in law while you boys enjoy." After giving Aaron a short hug, i went off with Paula. Still missing Damon.
I wonder if he listened to what i said and had the milk?Damon pov
"Mr. Valero, Chang has offered a very cheap rate and is wanting to hand in possession a week later." It was decided that Georgia had a large spot open for buying. At least it wasnt Detroit.Liam sent an email and i studied the quotations, term and conditions he had. Cheap. That was the first thought.
"Seems good to me. Go ahead."
"Do we need to consult senior Valero?" He asked.
"Not really. He is happy with it. Go ahead."
He nodded.
"Alright sir, have a good night."
"Good night to you too Liam." I shut the Mac and thought about what my baby girl must be doing.Then Jess knocked on the door. "Please come in."
She held a tray with a glass of milk. "Seira said i should give you this before i go." But i want coffee."Sure. Thank you." She placed the small tray on the desk and went. "Good night Jess!" I called after.
"Night Damon!" I eyed the glass. I hate drinking milk. So bland.
Then my phone tinged.
Seira: Hi!
Me: Hi.
Seira: Are you upset because of the milk?
Me: how did you know?
Seira: *shrugs*
Me: i hate it when people shrug.
Seira: *shrugs*
Me: just waiting for you now.
Seira: i suggest you go sleep. This party is going to take ages. I'll manage home.
Me: I'll pick you up myself. Thank you.
Seira: You. Are. Impossible.I grinned at the phone. Now, what should i do? That was the question. Read?
I went off to the library.Seira pov
"Damon chose your dress!" Dayana clasped her hands, eyes wide. Mrs Harris was looking grim. Probably Michael told her about me slapping him. Sadly.I blushed thinking about Damon and checked the watch, it was eleven pm. I had to go. "Excuse me." I went off to the foyer to call Damon.
"The number you are trying to call is currently not reachable please tr-"
I tried again. Not reachable. Probably he fell asleep.Suddenly, i felt a hand on my waist and i jumped to see.
Michael 'Mike' Harris.
"So glad to see the co captain. How are you Seira?" He smelt really good, looked good and spoke in a deep husky voice which seemed inappropriate.
I couldnt move.
"And what an evening. Damon is not here and here i found you all alone." His fingers sank in my silk. "Please leave me alone." I smacked his hand amd began walking when his twisted my arm and pinned it behind me. I struggled."Do you really think i will let you go? Just like that? No Seira. You hurt me and so you have to pay for that slap."
"M-m-Michael, you're hurting me. Let me go. Please." Tears trickled around the edges. Unexpectedly, he let go and backed winking. Thank God.I quickly called Bernerd.
Next morning...
Damon pov
I woke to find myself relaxed in the rocking chair with Jack Nightingale series in my hands. "Shit Seira!" I shrieked and ran out the door hitting into someone. Seira. I caught her and we both tumbled down.She hunched under me in blue nightwear, hair beautifully messy and a blanket tangled us together. "Where were you rushing early in the morning?" She asked squeezing her eyes, probably she hit her head.
"I..i was, who dropped you home?"
She tried moving but i kept her in place. "Answer me."
"Bernerd. I called you but you fell asleep so i called Bernerd."
I sighed in relief.
"What were you doing with this blanket?" I asked.
"You fell asleep without a blanket. I went to get to one."
"Really? You care about me?"She paused. Then nodded.
I smiled then pecked her nose.
"Did you hit your head?"
"A little."After a short breakfast for an urgent meeting, i rushed away for work.
Later in the day...
Damon pov
"We shall talk about all this later at rest. Go ahead and start planning the movement. Okay?" I ended the meeting when Bernerd called. "Sir, we need to go home. Jess cant find Seira. And she is not at work or anywhere else."Shit. I stood up and so did the others and i ran down the building with Bernerd on the phone.
Outside he waited for me with an open door. We both stared into eachother thinking where she was. "Lets go."At home, Jess paced around the foyer looking tense. "Jess?"
"Damon? Sei-"
"I know. Where were you? How did you not know?"
"I went to buy groceries and by the time i cam-"Something broke.
Bernerd and i rushed to my study where behind the partition, was a figure. And the glass vase on my desk fell and broke. I walked forward, carefully.
Then i saw who it was.
Seira. I ran and knelt by her immediately taking her tear stained, red face in my hands.
