Thank you, Morrigan. This is very helpful," I said, already feeling myself warming up. "And delivered to me entirely without pain." The Morrigan sucker-punched me hard in the face, sending me sprawling in the snow and breaking my nose. "You spoke too soon and with entirely too much sarcasm," she said. "We could have parted with a kiss. Remember that.
Kevin HearneHow would you take care of it?โ I asked. He shrugged. โI know some ghouls. I make a couple calls, the guys come over for dinner, problem solved.โ โThey can put away nine whole giants? Thereโs that many ghouls in town?โ โProbably not,โ Leif admitted. โBut whatever they do not eat tonight, theyโll take the rest to go.โ I stared at him in disbelief. โYou mean like a doggie bag?โ The vampire nodded with a thin trace of a smile. โThey have a refrigerated truck, Atticus. These are practical guys.
Kevin HearneOh. Oberon looked at me. I know that has to make you sad. But call to me instead, Atticus. I'll always answer. Your fly has been open all this time, by the way, and Granuaile hasn't said a thing. Thanks, buddy, I said silently as I tried to surreptitiously zip up my jeans. See? I got your back AND your front. I deserve a treat.
Kevin HearneWooo!โ he said, slamming his shot glass down and coughing a bit. โThatโs good stuff.โ I agreed heartily. โShall we do another one?โ I asked. โOh no,โ Jesus said quietly, his eyes growing round. โThis is one of those situations where I have to stop and ask myself, what would I do?
