Asa/ Text: Have you seen the Duke’s email?

[text]: Yes. I was planning on moving into the chateau in the mean time as per his request. Are you?

asa-le-pennec:

Text: Would you like to stay at my place for a bit instead?

Text: Not trying to rush things of course

Text: You could stay in my guest room even, if you prefer.

[text]: Yes. I would like that. [text]: If you would like the company.

Text: I’d feel much better having you with me over you being at the chateau.

Text: I think the point is to make *you* feel more secure.

[text]: Yes, that as well. [text]: I could use the company right now. My place feels too empty.

Text: No

Text: How long are you planning to stay there?

[text]: I suppose until the all clear is given. [text]: if it makes him feel more secure to know his house is safe then I don’t mind.

Text from Asa: Take the Duke up on his offer for at least a few weeks.

Text: I’m not leaving Wendy alone in our apartment. Not until she has security at least.

Text: Well forgive me for not hiring a private investigator to tell me every detail of your life, kid.

Text: She’s not family so forgive me for not showing more interest.

Text: Not a fan, but I’ll let your parents deal with that answer.

Text: It’s really not that much of a stretch to think you’d have met at some point.

Text: You only show interest in family?

Text: I’ll be fine and so will they.

Text: I’m going to pretend you’re not insulted your *Uncle* doesnt socialize with your friends.

Text: Look at you making connections

Text: If she’s involved with the head of a house, she’ll no doubt be looked out for. I wouldn’t worry.

Text: Uh, I’ve been friends with Wendy since college

Text: See, if I am with her, then I will be too. I’m not moving into the chateau. It will be crowded enough.

@asa-le-pennec

Text: Wendy?

Text: Cy probably won’t care if you bring her along to be honest.

Text: Yes, Wendy. My best friend. We live together.

Text: She’s seeing the Duchess of Nantes, I doubt her Grace wants her at the Maine chateau.

Asa/ Text: As kind as the offer is, I’m not moving into the damn chateau. Text: Make sure Nate and Liana move in.

Text: I figured you’d say as much.

Text: Either with me or with you. Liana is already here. Nate may be a harder sell.

Text: You all right, old man?

@asa-le-pennec

Text: Nate can shut up and tolerate it a little if he knows what’s good for him. I’ll speak with him.

Text: I’m fine.

Text/Asa: I just heard about what happened— are you okay?

[text]: I am uninjured, sir. Thank you. @asa-le-pennec

[Text] Crazy shit... I can’t believe someone had the nerve to attempt something at that event of all places.

[Text] I’m relieved you’re okay though. What are you up to today?

Text from Asa: Take a trip with me this weekend? We can drive to the coast and go sailing or even venture elsewhere by car if you’d like.

[text]: Yes. Of course. That sounds lovely. @asa-le-pennec

Text: Perfect

Text: Make sure to pack an overnight bag— although we can leave early in the morning to return, if you can’t afford to miss two days of work.

“Oh it’s a novel! Actually, it’s a rather brilliant novel. The main character is a girl who is a Punjabi girl in London who is struggling to figure out what she wants to do with her life, and signs up to teach what she thinks is going to be a creative writing course. Only the women who signed up for the class don’t know how to read or write English at all. Things happen, and all of these widows start to tell stories about their lives and their fantasies. And yes, the sexy stories are very sexy and as the reader it is up to you what you do with them,” Elle said with a twinkle in her eye as she remembered them.

“But the real point of the story is actually that all of these women start to find a lot more confidence in themselves through this storytelling. It’s a lot of exploration of cultural and generational differences. Especially considering the group of young Doms who designated themselves the culture and morality police and start threatening some of the women for their involvement in this, partially to hide their connection to some of the darker results of that particular culture. So now I’m full of new sexy stories and inspiration to take control of my life and live my truth and all of that sort of thing.”

Asa blinked, silent for a moment at Elle’s rather lengthly reply. “Well that’s.. some summary,” he responded with a nod. “I’m not much of a reader myself, but if you enjoyed it,” he added with a shrug. “You know... You should really get to know some of the other fellas in my house if you’re that much of a bookworm. Plenty of single ones, much more into reading than myself.”

“A little,” Asa commented. “Weather’s been nice, but haven’t had time for anything other than a few weekend trips. I’m hoping to go mid August maybe for a week… Would love a little company on a future trip if you’re up for it though— even if it’s just a day trip.”

“I understand, sir.” He nodded his head and offered the man a smile. “I’m nearly finished training up my new manager… I think I could steal away for a day or two if you would like to have me.” Maxim in particular liked the idea of going on a trip with Asa.
