"If you can bear to let me go after that," he quips. Lucien draws the book closer and picks it up. "You can keep reading after the contract is signed."

Well, he has to make the effort worth it, doesn't he?

He wants that book now.

"Write something up, I'll look it over and sign it, and we can get it filed at the courthouse. The sooner, the better."

The fast he can review that book, the faster he can shove Lucien out of the house and into his own flat.

"As you like," Lucien purrs. "I'll meet you at the courthouse in the morning."

He pulls the book away and tucks it under his arm with a sharp smile.

"Now then, I'm back to bed. I had a long night, Archivist."

Jon watches the book go with no small amount of hunger. "Tomorrow. Tex- Call me, and I'll meet you there."
