    Summary

    A year was all that it took to build his trust, though he made no easy task of it.

    From the day you walked into the Wansheng Funeral Parlor and handed in your application for his personal secretary, until now — every move was meticulously calculated. The unsuspecting snake in his abundance of grass.

    Finally, you had him right where you wanted him.

    — Or so you thought.

    Summary

    He’s clever, they always said, which really meant don’t trust him. But when Claude pieced apart his walls to let someone inside they were always surprised to find that he wasn’t the snake they’d been expecting. He was ambitious, of course, but ambition in the hands of good men is a blessing, not a curse. And when he described the tenets of his vision for the future it was easy to believe that clever was simply a synonym for kind.

    He’ll betray you, they said, already sitting in his palms, but when he drew his hands into fists to crush them they still bothered to cry out, why?

    “You won’t leave, right?”

    He continued to hold your hand, as you felt his thumb caress your own as softly as he can.

    "Of course I won't. I promise."
