Todd picked up the phone and saw that there was a number programmed into the phone. "I take it that is I get into trouble I can call this number and you will help me?"

"Yes, you are now my responsibility. It has been a rather long day. I will retire to my room and Royce will show you to yours." Cedric got up and the door opened.

"I will take good care of our new worker. I am Royce, the head butler here. I have been working here my whole life and I will show you the ropes. I am human like you." Royce walked away.

Todd scrambled and followed Royce around the house for the tour.

Cedric got up, went back to the bedroom, and quietly closed the door. He crept into the room as to not disturb Yuki's sleep. He changed out of the clothes and tossed them to the side and climbed into bed.

Yuki turned and snuggled up to Cedric. "Everything all settled now?"
