Valeria's proposal and Liora's challenge occupied opposite sides of the desk. One offered better prices. The other offered to hit me under supervision.
By the end of the first page, I preferred the challenge. Ren had placed both deliveries where I would see them after the evening treatment check. I had read the duel conditions before sleeping and left the longer contract for daylight.
The first morning of the new month brought daylight, another look at the bandage, and a final clause that made the ordinary goods on the first page much less interesting. I set the supplier extract beside it.
There were names now. Registered businesses. An actual appointment authorizing the receiving agent to act for a merchant within a stated class of ordinary deliveries. Valeria had supplied the missing document.
