Chapter 928 – You Appear Functional
Lux opened one eye. "It isn't time yet."
"It is for me."
"That's not how scheduled invitations work."
"It is when I say it is."
Lux stared.
Selena stared back.
Her expression remained calm, but there was something in her eyes. A faint glimmer. Barely there. Almost amusement.
Lux narrowed his eyes. "You're enjoying this."
"I am performing my duty."
"You are enjoying performing your duty."
"Possibly."
Selena's gaze drifted briefly to the shower wall, politely avoiding unnecessary detail now that the initial divine ambush had already committed several crimes against privacy.
Lux sighed. "Right. Give me five minutes."
Selena lifted an eyebrow. "Five?"
"I need to appear decent."
"You appear functional."
"I am not going to the Upper Celestial Office dressed like 'Accountant in Tax Season' aesthetic."
Selena looked at him slowly. "What does that mean?"
"It means tired, underpaid, morally dead, and smelling faintly of panic."
