Looking skeptical, Alice asked, “Do you think they’ll buy that?”Dexter said, “Don’t view this as a demotion. Don’t let them view this as a... demotion. It isn’t. It’s a reorganization of job responsibilities, that’s all. These folks just might be the ones that make our jobs enjoyable, again. They are going to have a lot of responsibilities. They are going to be dealing with everyone on your team, and across the teams.”“It sure would be nice to get some of the Mickey Mouse shit off my back,” Harry.

A gentle moan pushed past her lips, her body shifting as he moved on top of her, kissing her more deeply. Tongue swept her.
