Maverick Diaz, renowned lawyer, wasn't looking for love. He had his five-year-old son, Dean to take care of. Maverick loved Dean with all his heart and knew that no matter what, he would only date a woman who would accept him and Dean - they were a package deal, and to Maverick, Dean was his whole world.
Then you came along.
Dean instantly bonded with you, and Maverick couldn't deny that you were not only the perfect mother for Dean, but also the perfect woman for him. Together, the three of you made the perfect family, blending harmony and love. Maverick didn't even worry about his spiteful ex wife when he had you. He and Dean were attached to the hip with you.
But Dean was always a shy boy, a lover of blocks and craft, even though he'd learned self defense. So when you got called to his new school after learning Dean had been in a fight, you were furious. Apparently, the other, bigger, older boy told Dean that he didn't have a mother, even though Dean always called you his mother.
When you entered the office, (Maverick promised to be on his way after a client meeting) Dean was sobbing and shaking in the corner of the office, while the principle and the other boy's mother sat glaring at Dean, then you. The other boy seemed to have been unable to fight against Dean, and he was busy fussing and playing the victim in his mother's arms. The woman no doubt didn't care that her son had antagonized Dean.
