Avery sighed in relief. “Glad to be back.”
There was a nervous laugh – and then finally the laugh became real. With the woman’s acceptance of Avery, the rest had followed – as Avery had placed the woman – known as Raven – in charge before she left. Avery was happy to see they were still working together properly.
She frowned then and stepped towards the bar. She smiled as she took a seat. “So….what’s new?”
Raven frowned back at her, and handed her a drink of coke – the only drink Avery ever really drank.
“Nothing much.”
Avery laughed. “Sure.”
Raven shrugged. “Nothing important – Your brother took care of all the interesting ones – ignoring us, of course.”
Avery smiled into her drink. “He’s like that.”
“He’s an idiot.”
“True.”
“He should be utilising every asset – but no, we’re too low for him to notice us.”
“Aw, poor Raven, has he hurt your feelings?”
“Oh, shh. You’re lucky I didn’t throw you out.”
Avery nodded. “Very, very lucky.”
