Solved by a bullet [1/2]

A thin layer of soul now connected me to Cynthia and Yvonne. Both women were smiling as if they had won the lottery. Which made no sense, considering it meant they would have to share my burden.

Phillip and Lucrecia applauded happily as the two joined my {Vassals}. They hugged each other as they smiled. I nodded proudly and noticed the time. It was now 8:00 PM. That meant Hellsgate was officially open for business. 

Even though I was no longer bound by the rules of the Wraiths, I still felt that 8:00 PM was the beginning of the work day. It was probably because I always came in at 8:00 in the morning at my old job.

'Old habits die hard.'

I was no longer human, but part of my brain was still searching for a familiar routine to guide my day. Since it seemed my adoptive parents could care less about me, my business here was done. Knowing that my girls were still with Noelle, I sent them an invitation.
