    EXCERPT:

    “Something has already happened to Akamai. And what— we’re to trust this, this Lili Mele in his place?”

    Mele bristled, but tempered herself with a glance to Akamai, finding his eyes staring dead into hers. To her surprise, he tapped his lips. A gesture on a list he wrote. It meant she was allowed to speak freely. Mele burst from her seat and pressed her hands into the table. “Lili Mele? I am not the one who sold myself to the council of nobles in exchange for a good word with the emperor. Don’t fool yourself, Lili Takaahae, this is not the world we used to live in, and I am the most valuable asset you sniveling council of cowards has. What choice is there but to wait for now? Min needs the energy when he returns. I’d imagine tracing the edge of the land has drained his stores far lower than any of ours. Now I’m begging to return to our plans for when the search parties return. My brain has been decaying with every syllable that exits your mouth.”

    Making Your Move Hassle-Free: How to Choose the Right Moving Company 

    Moving can be a stressful and overwhelming experience, but hiring the right moving company can make all the difference. Here are some tips for choosing the right moving company to make your move hassle-free. 


     
    Research multiple companies 

    It’s important to do your research before choosing a moving company. Get references from friends and relatives, search online for reviews, and verify the BBB rating of the business. Create a list of possible businesses and contrast their offerings, costs, and accessibility.  

     
     
    Get multiple quotes 

    It’s important to get multiple quotes. A reputable moving company will provide a detailed estimate that includes all fees and charges. Be wary of companies that offer a low-ball estimate or ask for a large deposit upfront. 

     
     
    Check for license and insurance 

    Be sure the moving company you select is authorized and covered by insurance. In the event of any damage or loss during the relocation, this will safeguard you. You can check a company’s license and insurance status with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). 

     
     
    Ask about experience 

    Experience is important when it comes to moving. Ask how long the company has been in business, how many moves they have completed, and what kind of training their employees receive. A company with a proven track record of successful moves is more likely to provide a hassle-free experience. 

     
     
    Inquire about equipment and materials 

    Ask the moving company what kind of equipment and materials they use to pack and transport your belongings. Do they use high-quality packing materials to protect your items? Do they have specialized equipment for moving large or heavy items? A company with the right tools and materials can make the move more efficient and reduce the risk of damage. 

     
     
    Consider additional services 

    In addition to packing and moving, many moving companies offer additional services such as storage, packing and unpacking, and cleaning. Consider whether you need any of these services and if the company you choose can provide them. 

     
     
    Read and understand the contract 

    Be sure you comprehend all the terms and conditions of a contract before you sign it. Ask the moving company any questions you may have, and make sure all your belongings are listed on the inventory. A reputable moving company will be transparent and upfront about all fees and charges. 

    By following these tips, you can choose the right moving company and make your move hassle-free. Remember to start your search early and take the time to find a company that meets your needs and budget. With the right moving company, you can have a stress-free and successful move. 

     
     
    Look for guarantees 

    A reputable moving company should provide guarantees and assurances that your items will be transported safely and securely. Ask about the company’s policy on lost or damaged items and what kind of insurance they provide. Some moving companies may offer additional insurance options for added peace of mind. 

     
     
    Check for hidden fees 

    Make sure to ask the moving company about any additional fees or charges that may not be included in the initial estimate. Hidden fees can add up quickly and significantly increase the cost of your move. Clarify all fees and charges before signing a contract. 

     
     
    Choose a local moving company 

    Choosing a local moving company can offer several advantages. Local moving companies are often more familiar with the area and can provide better customer service. They may also be more flexible with scheduling and can offer more personalized services. Consider Mandeville movers, for example, if you live in Mandeville, Louisiana. 

     
     
    Communicate clearly 

    Effective communication is key to a successful move. Make sure to communicate clearly with the moving company about your needs and expectations. Let them know about any specific requirements or concerns you may have. Clear communication can help prevent misunderstandings and ensure a smooth move. 

     
     
    Be prepared 

    Before the moving company arrives, make sure to pack your belongings and label boxes clearly. Have a plan in place for how you want your items to be loaded onto the truck. Being prepared can help make the move more efficient and reduce the risk of damage. 

     
     
    Get a written agreement 

    Make sure to get a written agreement from the moving company that includes all the details of the move, including the date, time, and location. The agreement should also include the estimate, any additional fees or charges, and the company’s policies on lost or damaged items. 

    Choosing the right moving company is an important step in making your move hassle-free. By doing your research, getting multiple quotes, and communicating clearly with the company, you can ensure a successful move. Remember to be prepared, ask questions, and read the contract carefully to avoid any surprises. With the right moving company, you can have a stress-free and successful move.

    EXCERPT

    Excerpt from Pink

    “What the hell is going on? Is everybody in the world fucking besides
    me?” Cali demanded. This was the third suck scene she’d encountered
    today in the apartment that housed their small publishing house.

    First had been their main artist, Fab, and his dark-haired lover Casmir,
    her health and fitness specialist, going at it in the kitchen/break room.
    Gathering her composure, she’d escaped to the bathroom. Only once she opened
    the unlocked door, she was shocked by a lavender-haired woman and a
    silver-haired man having a wild go at it against the sinks. Backing away
    before they noticed her — or worse, invited her to join in — Cali raced
    toward the safety hopefully contained in her brother’s office.

    But again, here was a fuck fest underway, and she apparently hadn’t gotten
    the memo.

    When had Casual Fridays become free-fuck-for-all days?

    Calita’s twin brother, Able, had his secretary sitting on top of his desk,
    a roll of saran wrap clutched in her hand. Able made grunting, whining
    noises as he ate her out. Calita knew the secretary had just broken up with
    her girlfriend a month before. When had Laslie gone straight, or at least
    bi? Or should she be called Lassie because of the howls that were erupting
    from her throat? And the woman had to be double jointed to have one leg up
    on Able’s shoulder, the other around his head, while her back arched up to
    resemble the Gateway to the West.

    Calita stepped out of the room and eased the door shut. Composing herself
    again, she called to Able, “Um, when you both let go of the golden
    ring, I’ll be in the waiting room, waiting for some answers!”

    Twin groans of pleasure sent her scurrying to the living room to collapse
    into their Ikea special couch. Once settled, she whimpered and resisted the
    urge to rub her thighs together for some relief. The sexual tension in the
    small apartment was killing her! And she was afraid to make for her office.
    Who the hell knew what could be in there?

    Feeling embarrassed, aroused and confused, Calita sat and waited — and
    waited and waited, skin crawling and knees shaking as she contemplated her
    business… and wondered if that thick peppermint stick she got when
    playing Santa’s Elf last year would act as a substitute dildo until she
    could go down to the toy shop on the corner to purchase a vibrator strictly
    for office use. If unending lust was going to explode on a regular basis,
    she wanted to be prepared.
