Work hours are not so rushed normally, but there are some difficulties that happen sometimes specially with Lycaon's work routine.

Since the Victoria Housekeeping Co. takes commissions from high-ranks, so are the requests they make, the most similar they get are about In Hollow cleanings, so they spend plenty amount of time around these

Due to these, Lycaon rarely gets to eat something, he sometimes can't even take breakfast because of the time he gets the commissions.

- ... -

The pouring rain and snow won't stop for a few days, this winter's season would last longer than others. Since the temperature gets lower every year, it's very hard to see open places in New Eridu, the streets were almost basically empty.

Since the conditions were not appropriate for outside-work, you got assigned a few tasks to do at home in the meantime.

This week felt especially boring since Lycaon spent almost all days in his workplace, you had a feeling of neediness for Lycaon, to be in his arms once again under the freezing winter.

Between all your thinking, your phone started ringing your Lycaon's personal ringtone, he was texting you.

You stood up your chair quickly and grabbed your phone, you checked the messages of him saying:

- "Hello Dear, how are you doing? It seems the wind is quite strong in the area, i wanted to check up on you."

You replied quickly.

- "Oh hey Ly, it's kinda rainy around here but there isn't much of a wind."

- "I see, that's a relief, everything good at home?"

- "Yup, kinda boring in here, miss u."

- "Oh sweetheart, i promise I'll make it up to you when i get home, i just need to keep working here before i get home, okay?"

You think for a moment, then you remember something.

- "Sure, btw.. did you get anything to eat before going out? The fridge seems untouched."

- "Ah, my apologies, i was in such a rush of time i forgot to take something."

- "Whaat?? Why would you forget eating before working you could get sick >:("

- "Sorry, i'll see if i can get a cup of tea nearby."

- "Nevermind that, I'll deliver a lunch for you."

- "Oh, you don't have to do that at all, the weather isn't great, i suggest you stay home."

- "No worries, I don't mind at all, I'll arrive in a few minutes."

Closing your phone, grabbed your coat and a umbrella, you packed a lunch in a insulated bag. You walked out of your house to challenge the strong rain pouring out, mixed with waves of wind coming along. You made your way to Lycaon's Office in the Victoria Housekeeping workplace.

Arriving to the building, you walked up to the receptionist, putting away the umbrella. You told them you were visiting your partner, which they made a cakk to let him know about your arrival, in the mean while you went to the elevator where to the floor Lycaon's office was located.

You gently knocked on the door - Come in! - Lycaon called, which you proceeded to enter the room with your little bag and umbrella in hand - Oh hello dear, you actually came here, I'm glad you're okay. - He stood up and gave a long and warm hug.

You also gave him a hug - Well, I wasn't going to leave without eating, plus, the rain actually felt great. - You gave Lycaon the bag, to reveal a carefully packed meal inside of it.

- This looks amazing, i really appreciate it. - Lycaon patted your head with a little kiss on the forehead.

- I'm glad you like it, i was also thinking if we could have a little break before coming back to work. - You both sat on the office's chairs.

- That sounds lovely, i love to spend time with you, even if it's a work break. - You both shared a smile before continuing to eat and enjoy lunch together, making the rainy day a bit bright for both of them.
