Blackwell: Now you're all mine

Kira: All yours?

He takes the business card she's holding out to him and sets it on his desk.

Blackwell: What do you know about Riker Lockhart?

Kira: Today is the first day I have heard his name

Blackwell: Lockhart and I have a story. A dangerous one lined with blood
He's a predator, plain and simple, and now it would seems he has you locked in his sights

Kira: Well you should have told me about this

Blackwell: I didn't think this was how he would strike, you're right. You should have been informed

Kira: You didn't tell me that I could be kidnapped when I signed those papers
I got people that depend on me. Family that I'm taking care of, if something were to happen to me...

Blackwell moves in, leaning forward to hover tantalisingly close.

Blackwell: You don't trust me to keep you safe?

As his eyes take over Kira, she realizes how close he's standing and swallow.

Blackwell: I'm the only one that came deal with him. And as long as you're mine, he won't harm you

Kira: Yours?

His hand goes to Kira's hips, pulling her against him.

Blackwell: Mine
Ahem still there's something else we need to discuss. The policy your ex was demoted for breaking

Kira: And what policy was that?

He breaks away from her, the sudden space between them sucking her breathing away.

Blackwell: No sleeping with your co-workers

Blackwell's cut off by the beeping of his phone, and he let out a curse as he check it.

Kira: What's wrong?

Blackwell: One of our largest clients is coming by early. I need his file processed and catalogued. Now

Kira: I can take care of it. Did stuffs like that all the time for Mason

Blackwell: One of my employees, Blair, has the file. Let me know if she attempts to make things.... difficult for you

Kira: Difficult. . . Why would she do that?

She left Blackwell's office to get the file and once she arrive to Blair's work place she figure out why she might make it difficult.

Blair: What the hell do you want?

The women she caught with her boyfriend sleeping with give Kira a glare.

( In Kira's mind )
I just need to get the file. . . Let's keep calm she's not worth it

Kira: Weren't you demoted?

Blair: I was, thanks to you. You just couldn't keep your nose where it belonged, could you?

Kira: Look, we don't have time for this.
Blackwell need that file processed. Now

Blair: Or what? The boss's new golden girl will get in trouble?

Kira: Look, neither of us wants Blackwell to chew us out. I get that we don't like each other, but let's deal with that outside the office

Blair: . . . Fine, but don't think this is over

She hand over the file before flipping her chair around to once again ignore Kira completely.
