Heart's Blood (in two parts)

Should or should not had never mattered to Tadashi, not when it came to Ainosuke - and he couldn’t stop himself, whatever came.

‟You’re mine.” Ainosuke nearly snarled, unable to force himself to modulate his voice or lighten his grip. Tadashi only smiled, jade eyes bright as they so rarely were now, the shadows gone.

Pet Alpha

Tadashi slid off the desk, legs trembling, and Ainosuke purred, smoothing a hand over his back. A gentle nudge urged him on, and Tadashi collapsed willingly at his feet, nuzzling into his palm and leaning on his thigh. Ainosuke stroked his hair, purr settling, and he smiled, rumbling in answer, eyes closed.

Ainosuke’s suit hung ready, and he brought it out to the hanger on the outside of the door, smoothing it absently. He returned to the closet to choose a shirt, coming to the door and showing it to his master for approval. Ainosuke waved a hand carelessly; a yes, this morning.

The Same Brush

‟He chooses to neither splinter his self nor set himself to war against you.” Nuala said, voice sharpening as her thoughts roiled. ‟He chooses for the sake of our people as he always has, and you- you dismiss him so easily?” ‟Nuada has chosen his path.” their father said, expression peaceful despite the sorrow edging it, and Nuala seethed.

From my April 29th post here; Improved Efficiency for @meggiejolly, @auburnlaughter, @stonemaskedtaliesin, thank you!

‟Perhaps you would like to retire to your rooms, Ainosuke-sama?” Tadashi suggested; would Ainosuke care to return to their normal morning routine, rather. And once they had, Tadashi could catch up on what he should have been doing this morning; fortunately he always prepared reports and schedules the night before, and they were ready, waiting to be brought from Tadashi’s own office in the antechamber of Ainosuke’s study to him there or in his suite. He took a sip of his coffee; it was hot enough he could barely taste it, only the heat on his tongue, but it didn’t matter. ‟Yes.” Ainosuke agreed, sliding off the stool. ‟Tadashi, accompany me.” Tadashi followed obediently, already mentally restructuring the day to be sure he fit all his responsibilities into it and kept Ainosuke on time. It was his job, and he was well-practised at it; by the time he had finished his coffee and properly woken up he would have at least the morning sorted, and they could be back on track before Ainosuke needed to leave for his first meeting. Ainosuke went to his bed - rumpled, it was clear he had been in it, before he abandoned it and came up to find Tadashi, whatever had driven him - and sat there rather than passing into his sitting room. He gestured, and Tadashi took another drink of his coffee, then set his half-empty mug on the bureau and bowed before going into the closet.

‟There had better not be.” Ainosuke said sharply, voice low, fingers curling into Tadashi’s hair at his nape, just tightly enough to sting. Tadashi sighed contentedly, and Ainosuke’s grip didn’t ease, but he rubbed Tadashi’s nape with his thumb, voice softening into a hum. Tadashi drew a deep breath.

Heart's Blood

Not even when he waited for Adam to return from his nights racing free. Ainosuke pushed away and old pang, strangling it down and telling himself it didn’t matter. He had his freedom - as much as he would ever get - and he had . . . friends, now, strange as it was.

Pet Alpha

Encouraging - pleading - him to keep moving. Ainosuke bared his teeth, grip tightening, and rolled his hips, bowing forwards, closer to Tadashi’s back, feeling the flex of his muscles as he whined sharply, taking Ainosuke deep. Ainosuke purred, nuzzling his shoulder, then bit, and he moaned again, going lax - save for the flutter as his body tightened around Ainosuke’s cock.

Improved Efficiency

Ainosuke was too rarely truly relaxed, and it made Tadashi sigh, pleased even if he was also confused. Tadashi blinked, watching Ainosuke as he rearranged the duvet and slid down, curling onto his side. Tadashi began to move away - there wasn’t much space between himself and the edge of the bed; Ainosuke barely fit and it wouldn’t do for him to fall off - but Ainosuke wrapped an arm around his waist, then huffed, squeezing.

Teeth of a Vicious Gift

Nuala finished off a thread, weaving the end beneath her stitches, then straightened and crossed her legs, smiling as she watched her brother run through forms, growing faster and faster. The weapon he had to hand was a new one, but he handled it like a living thing and it leapt to his will. The blade made a thin, high-pitched wail as Nuada moved faster and it sliced through the air; a song of woe and might.

Six Sentence Sunday

from Improved Efficiency (SK8; PuppyLove - for my @gywo Yahtzee)

‟You should sleep with me.” Ainosuke declared, and Tadashi inclined his head, quirking one brow. ‟Tadashi!” he prompted. Tadashi retrieved the shirt and returned the hanger to the empty side of the closet, then stepped back out. ‟I did last night.” he pointed out, smoothing the shirt over the foot of the bed. ‟No. . .” Ainosuke crossed his legs, frowning.

Insurance Brokerage's Future: Integrating Digital Solutions for Improved Efficiency

An important development is taking place in the insurance brokerage industry, which is quickly shifting from conventional, paper-intensive procedures to a highly digitalized, effective, and customer-focused model. Brokers that want to remain competitive and promote growth must embrace digital solutions; it is no longer a choice.

The following are some ways that digital solutions are influencing insurance brokerage's future for increased efficiency:

Automation of Core Workflows: Routine, repetitive operations including data entry, policy administration, claims initiation, renewals, and commission management are being automated by digital platforms and specialist insurance broker software (such Ozone Insuria). This significantly cuts down on manual labor, minimizes mistakes, and frees up brokers' time to concentrate on high-value tasks like strategic sales and customer advising.

Improved Customer Relationship Management (CRM): All client information, contact history, policy specifics, and preferences are centralized by digital CRM systems. This enables brokers to provide timely, useful data, anticipate client needs, proactively manage renewals, and provide highly personalized services. Client satisfaction and retention are greatly increased by features like mobile apps and client self-service portals, which enable clients to track claims, access policy information, and even make payments on their own.

Analytics of Data and AI-Powered Understandings: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced analytics are using the flood of data from digital interactions, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and other sources. AI and machine learning (ML) can be used by brokers to:

Predictive analytics: Estimate customer attrition, spot chances for upselling and cross-selling, and forecast market trends.

Risk assessment: By analyzing large datasets, AI can provide more competitive pricing and accurate risk profiling, helping brokers match clients with the best policies.

Automated Underwriting: AI can help brokers by rapidly producing contextual quotations from several insurers, which expedites the sales process, although it is largely for carriers.

Fraud Detection: By identifying questionable trends in claims data, AI algorithms can improve the prevention of fraud.

Cloud-Based Platforms for Scalability and Accessibility: Broker management solutions that are hosted on the cloud provide unmatched scalability, flexibility, and accessibility. Brokers can work remotely and manage multiple branches with ease because they can access their data and tools on any device, at any time, and from any location. With strong backup and disaster recovery procedures, cloud solutions also guarantee data protection and business continuity while lowering the cost of IT infrastructure and doing away with the need for on-premise servers.

Increased Market Reach and Digital Marketing: Digital solutions give brokers access to tools for targeted advertising, content marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), and online presence. As a result, they are able to expand their audience, improve their lead generation, and establish their brand online.

Compliance and Security: Brokers can securely handle sensitive client data and conform to changing industry standards with the help of modern digital platforms' built-in features that support data privacy and regulatory compliance.

Basically, insurance brokers may become flexible, based on data, and client-focused advisers through using digital technologies, replacing their previous role as traditional brokers. In addition to increasing operational effectiveness, this change improves customer satisfaction, creates new opportunities for expansion, and positions the brokerage firm for success in a market that is competitive and active.
