I was foolish to think that our night was over when we arrived at home and I carried Lilith up to our room.
She was so tired that she fell asleep on my shoulder.
When I tried to shake her awake she grumbled that she was too tired to walk.
"Mr. Harris, you have a guest," our housekeeper informed me when I went to the kitchen for a glass of water.
"Who?" I asked wondering who would want to see me at this hour.
Okay it wasn't that late, it was still early but I wanted to just lie down next to my wife and cuddle her.
I've become a man of simple joys, all it took was my wife and I was happy.
"Lexington Durfort and Riley Harris, sir." I groaned at the mention of their names.
"Let them in, you can leave after," I didn't want our housekeeper to stay beyond necessary. I know she'd still be paid overtime, but we could clean up after ourselves or at least most of us could.
Our housekeeper nodded as she left to fetch our cousins.
