Chapter 217

• MAX POV
• Drinking always makes conversation so much easier. I kept my head, holding back on the wine while Soren knocked back the beers, and Cloe loosened up on a couple of glasses of red. I let them talk, and I watched. I always watch.
• Soren told her about graphic design, and made her laugh about some of his clients. Only Soren can make work funny like that. He asked her about her uni course, her friends, and her horse.
