Nice little bonus package I got delivered to my desk this morning. Seems the boys were all happy that their little problem was taken care of. A squad went out to take out the Typhoon Mary of the demon set and we're all well and good for a change. Go team me

Hmm, another week, another apocalypse averted. Yawn. I finally got an eyeful of the Slayer during the melee, and I have to say I wouldn't mind having occasion to get to know her better. Ah well, back to work. I shall have to choke down my bitter disappointment that the Senior Partners are all alive and well, leaving no opportunities for advancement as of yet.

I'm pushing paper around my desk, actually ready for a break, when lovely Lilah taps on my door.

"Well," I say, raising an eyebrow. "To what do I owe the honor?"

I nodded as I came into the office.

"How did you fare with the forced sit in?"

When you did diddly squat and I did all the work.

"Have a case and need a partner, if you were interested. The pay out isn't that shabby and it seems interesting."

I walked around my desk and perched on the edge of it, smiling at her. "I conducted business as usual," I told her. "Billable hours are billable hours." That's not one hundred percent the truth, actually, but I was never a Boy Scout, after all.

"A new case? Do tell."

I plopped the folder in his hand and smiled as I sat on one of the expensive leather chairs.

"Seems they want to make the government pay."

I quirk my eyebrow and appraise her, from the immaculately coiffed dark hair to the Jimmy Choo pumps, and then say, "She'd be entirely correct about that."

I watched him take me in smiling. It's been far too long between anything resembling hot wild sex, but I do remember the looks, mind you. I returned the favor and nodded at him.

"Was that even in question?"

I know I am hot. Always have been and thanks to the effects of plastic surgery when that time comes, I will always remain so.

"As for the case, when would you like to go over it in detail? I seem to have a nice weekend planned for me in Carmel for services rendered to the firm. So this weekend is out for me."

[legalistic]

"No, no question whatsoever," I said. "And as far as... the case... I'm completely at your beck and call."

I raised an eyebrow.

Smirking I nodded. How I like my men. Knowing who is in charge of the situation, at all times.

"Then we could start today and be ready next week to file the motions. No point in the firm having to pay for what the government can."

Getting the file I walked to the door smiling.

"Coming?"
