Lief eyed the corporate head who had subtly encouraged him to take the next term as Eks Corp's King a year before. He looked very appreciative of the fact that the current King would not also be the head of Eks Corp.
He wondered if the older man realized that this declaration should give the top ten corporations even more reason not to let the division that Nova Corp was currently trying to make occur.
If anyone had ever suggested to Lief that it could even be a possibility, he might have agreed to take on the duty, as long as Brendan had agreed to take over the primary title when he returned. However, he found the current situation quite livable. Rafaela was surprisingly good at keeping her temper.
