A man can be destroyed but not defeatedI took the money to the bank this morning and put it all back in Caleb's account. Then I went next door with the receipt and the now voided agreement. Because in it he says I can cancel at any time.
Even when he's lying black and blue
Living on a faith above his ceiling
Never going to know if it rings true
There's a voice inside that keeps him
On the path of righteousness
You can't break his stride or change his mind
'cause he won't second guess
He met me at the door, offering me coffee. I refused politely, telling him I just wanted to drop off some paperwork. He took it from me, leafing through the forms, lifting up the deposit slip and then smoothing it out, his brow furrowing. He looks at me and then leafs through the forms again just to be sure. Then he asked if Lochlan is making me do it.
I told him I had expected it to make things easier for myself and for Lochlan too but it didn't work out that way.
Ah. By reverting back you do understand that this will make your life harder, do you understand?
Oh my God, such a lawyer.
I'd rather fight you than give in.
It sounds so extraordinary when phrased like that.
You're a sick fucking pervert, you know that?
Yes, I'm aware. But only with you. By day, I'm the mild-mannered Lord of the Underworld.
You admit it!
Who wouldn't? It's an honor and a privilege. Now what did you want to do about our lack of arrangement? Shall I harass you right now or would you like to have lunch first?
I...what? I forgot what I wanted to say.
Exactly as I directed, via my overwhelming powerful evil powers. Lunch at two?
Sure.
