Cayden POV
“Are you okay?” she asks looking at me concerned
“I’m just nervous baby girl” I say smiling down at her
“Well you will be fine. I’m sorry I can’t join you in the meeting” she says while fixing my tie. I cup her face and kiss her with all the love in the world
“It’s not your fault baby girl. If the encounter with Clarise was any indication to how you will react to criticism against me I think its better that you go shopping with the girls” I say lovingly but I see my little Amala is not pleased
“I did what I had to and will do it again” she says with determination and conviction
“I know and I love you even more for it baby girl, but the council are set in their ways. Best we keep you on their good side” I say and she nods
“Fine, but what’s the worst they can do?” she asks
