Maxim chuckled.“But if he has a nice dog bed, he’ll always want to return to it.Dogs love their creature comforts as much as anyone.He’d be another resident.”
Bryanlovedhaving residents; as many as possible.Maxim had realized quite early on that the Lar would get restless if the household was too small, if there were not enough moving parts for him to occupy himself with.He was much like Heath when it came to doing what he was very good at—high volume and high precision.
Bryan nodded and left, the place pristine once more.I wonder, does that make it easier when there is chaos in your heart and gut?Is that why cleaning my blades relaxes me?Perhaps I should clean my blades, but I cannot have Raven returning here and seeing me polishing swords and things.
He dismissed the idea and looked at Heath’s texts.
Okay so I hired Raven
Like for temp work
Idk, it was Jason’s idea
That’s okay, right?
I think I picked the wrong phone for him.He wants to pay me back for it.
I told him it was a gift for becoming a vampire, which maybe was insensitive.
Of course hiring him is okay.Paying your way is admirable.??Let him.
It’s not insensitive to mark a change in your life, and I don’t think he’ll ever think you insensitive, darling.
Doing your taxes is also admirable, but that’s never stopped you from complaining about it.
Okay, I guess we can find work for him.
He can catalog my things.
Maxim typed it out and sent it without thinking it through.
Your things?What things?
Maxim hesitated, but only for a second.Heath knew how fast he could type.
The old boxes on the thirty-second floor you have been trying to get me to throw out for years now.
You’re such a pack rat.
At least let him throw out the weird old stuff, okay?
Also
I mentioned doing therapy again.
Was that bad?
I don’t know how to do this, and I got him a really high-end phone.
Maxim smiled at the screen.Darling, your kindness makes you shine.
You did?
Yeah.Got Jason one too, but he had to suggest it.But still.
You got everyone a nice phone?
Everyone except that weirdo dog.
