《Hired To Love》Ask Henry #1

Hello everyone and welcome to my AMA #AskHenry where I answer your silliest questions to your most serious questions! First I'd like to say that I'm honored that so many of you are fond of me. I appreciate it! Now, let's get to these questions.
Fear. Mrs. Calloway is someone I'd rather avoid. I don't want her to know how much I fear her though— I'm pretty sure she lives off it.
Anna? Henley's friend? Ah... she's a bit young for me. She's very cute though.
First it's very unhealthy to not eat anything or just an apple a day. It will not help you feel better. You can develop a disorder like anorexia—which can become deadly. Please eat your full meals. I'm not sure if you've heard of Body Dysmorphic Disorder, but it's a serious problem people struggle with and I suggest you look it up. I know the feeling. You don't like how you look— no matter what other people say to contradict you, it's still how you perceive yourself. Someone can tell you you look fine, but you'll still doubt it in your mind. This is something you must overcome yourself.
Instead of focusing on the negatives, start telling yourself the positives. What do you like about yourself? Tell those to yourself every morning. Even something small, like how you look cute in this outfit. Or you like how your eyes look. What does your friend like about yourself? Try to begin believe them, even thought it won't happen right away. If you find yourself getting disgusted by yourself, remind yourself of what you like about yourself. Try therapy if you can afford it. It really, really does help. Keep a consistent but HEALTHY exercise plan and diet. You can actually eat a lot while still being on a healthy diet. It's the worst feeling when you're unhappy with your appearance. A look in the mirror can ruin your day.
Everyone is beautiful in their own way. It's cliché, but it's true. Don't compare yourself to others. It's okay to work toward something you want to change about yourself, but don't let that take over your life. Don't let it affect your life like that.
Think about how you would feel if your best friend or significant other felt that way about themselves? Would you want them to feel like that? No. So because I know what this feeling feels like, I don't want you to feel like that. Please don't put yourself threw that. We should support each other and try to overcome this feeling.
If you ever feel like this, feel free to talk to me. I understand and would love to help you fight this together.
Who? Me? *blushes and scratches head* Just be kind? You should be kind whenever possible. It's always possible. You never know what someone is going through.
You have to accept loss. It's very hard, but what is born, must die. Teat yourself kindly. Allow yourself to grieve. You don't always have to be strong. You might not ever get over a loss— but remind yourself, is this what that person would want? Wouldn't they want you to be happy?
I love all animals.

My best memory is my first Christmas working for the Calloways. I lost my parents when I was young and I grew up in an orphanage, so I never fully celebrated or appreciated Christmas. Somehow Lee found out about this and threw an 'office' party, but I'd known he'd done it for my sake. The pile of presents for me was much larger than anyone else's. And every Christmas since then, we've had our little gathering.

The Calloway family is a curse I wouldn't wish upon anyone.
More than willing. Any help I can give Bennett, I will.
Well, I'm sure if you search around hard enough you can find it J
Pizza.
Well, how old are you? Under 18? That would be illegal. *laughs* I'm a bit busy to be an eligible suitor right now.
Cats. Even if they're rabid, at least I still get to pet them.
Lee was many things to me, including my boss and best friend. Bennett is also my close friend.
You have to try and look at the Brightside with these things. I could think about what if? But instead, I think of what is? I've become closer with Bennett and I've met Henley. That wouldn't have happened if I hadn't started working for Bennett.
Well, he saved me from Mrs. Calloway. If you meant how did I start working for the company, I just randomly put in a resume and they hired me quickly. Thinking about, I probably got hired so quickly because most people probably quit after a day of working for Mrs. Calloway.
I've liked many people before. As you can see since I'm alone, it's never worked out.
That's... extreme. I think I would pick enduring one day with Bennett's mother. I've done it many times before. I'm actually afraid of crows.
Yes. Through it I was able to meet Lee and Bennett. I would've never met someone like Lee again, even if I traveled the world for the rest of my life.
I can't say much about this, as I don't know too much about it myself. I would ask Bennett that. I do know something happened with Bennett's father, but I'm not exactly sure what. There has to be a reason no one speaks of him.
You tried your best and your best was enough for me.
Very hard. I have a fanfic where— actually, never mind.
I don't have anything, currently.
Making the world a better place. But wherever he is, I'm sure he's still able to.
Working a secretary and assistant is not what I love, but I don't mind it with Bennett. I write when I get home from work and I love that, so I'm okay with where things are at in my life.
I wouldn't want to pin specifics. I think you can fall for anyone. Someone who you think is your type could easily be someone you hate. Someone you think isn't your type could easily be someone you spend the rest of your life with.
Bennett is more difficult than, Lee. Let's put it this way. Bennett is like a disobedient puppy with room to grow. Lee is like a more mature, loyal companion.
No. I wouldn't leave him alone.
Does the basement have wifi?
For the most part, yes. All Lee asked of me was to take care of Bennett. But I wouldn't have left even if Lee hadn't asked. When I see him in this situation, I know I'd feel guilty if I ever left him alone.
Yes. I don't have a family.
Lee. I don't know much about Anna. I'm sure she's an amazing person though. I just haven't gotten the chance to really know her.
*laughs* I like your nickname. But while she is cruel, she doesn't deserve death.
I think I may be too old to know who 21 Pilots are—

I think Jordan is the captain of this ship.
If I could go back and change one thing about my life, it would be saying no to Lee that day. I wish I'd gone. Everything else I can deal with. But this.... Not this.
When I'm alone.
Chocolate. And my favorite flavor is plan chocolate ice cream. With chocolate sprinkles!
Signing books in a bookstore, hopefully!
I'm absolutely stunned and honored. It's like having thousands of friends when before I had two.
I didn't. I just live.
I have maybe felt love, but I'm not sure if I've ever been in love. It's hard to know. Sometimes every new love you find is greater than the last. Was one really not love after all? Love is complicated.
I'm guessing it's what an adult baby-sitter would feel like. *laughs*
I listen to a bit of everything. I don't think I could choose a favorite.
Please be okay.
Miss is an understatement.
I'd like to be an author and if I had lots of money, I would open as many no-kill shelters as possible and start grants for low income families to help afford their pets surgeries.
It depends. If Bennett is in the office, it can run between five and ten. Sometimes he leaves early and if I've finished my work, he tells me to leave too. If Bennett doesn't come to the office, I've just got my own work to do so it's my typical eight-hour shift.
Hm, can't say I have. I have been working out recently, though.
I would say Ursula. Mrs. Calloway has a certain way of getting what she wants and she is not afraid to silence you. My second thought is Scar— Mrs. Calloway wants all the power and to be at the top. She would toss family aside to do so.
Henley makes me feel relieved. I know Bennett will find happiness if she's around. It feels like my worries have been lessened. Also, Bennett has become a bit more human.
While Bennett is more manageable now, he could never beat out Lee. I don't think anyone ever could.
Honestly, I think when you leave high school is when you will become your most confident. High school is full of people pretending someone they aren't to try to fit in. You can fall into that yourself. But here's a tip— don't care what anyone thinks of you. That's how you'll be more confident. It's hard in high school, but try your best. If someone tries to make fun of you, remember, in four years you'll never see that person again. Don't let them get to you. To make friends, be opened minded and be kind. Be the first to speak to someone. Share your interests. Join clubs or sports.
I like reading a bit of everything. If it's recommended to me, I'll read it. I like to do a lot of research too, so I like research books and textbooks.
Why? Are you asking me out?
Like a baby?
Some people have had it worse, so I can't complain.
That nobody and nothing would ever suffer.
I didn't realize I was so popular. I'm actually shy. Are you old enough?
What book?
You're in a tough situation. Since he has a girlfriend, it's best that you don't do anything. If he's flirting with you, why is he with his girlfriend? That makes it sound like he isn't fully committed in his relationship. Is that someone you would want to date? Someone that might flirt with other girls while they're in a relationship with you? Has the relationship between the two of you always been teasing? Or is it new? If it's always been the same, perhaps nothing has changed. You could be wanting to see it like that since you like him. It's okay to like him even if he's in a relationship— you can't help your feelings. You just can't act upon it. I suggest waiting and seeing if he breaks up with that girl and then asking him his feelings up right.
He buys me lunch. I like that.
Bennett is on the right path. I think Bennett does take after Lee, a bit. They are brothers, after all.
If it doesn't work by talking, remember this. You will be an adult some day. They can't control you then. If they won't let you have your freedom now, they'll get it ripped away from them the day you move out. Hopefully they think that and instead of pushing you away, they'll realize you need space to breathe. I think it's okay to give them a gentle reminder that you need to live your own life, as they've lived theirs.
This is an easy one. Go for the honest guy. The asshole? Chances are he'll always be an asshole. Assholes are painted in a good light in fiction— but the reality is far from that. You want someone you can talk with and someone who won't be cruel to you. Someone who is upfront and doesn't confuse you.
I'm afraid of changing something of the past. What effect would it have on my current future? If I changed something bad that happened to me in the past, in might affect something good that happened to me now because of it.
It's a mix of real life situations and made up ones for, you know, added things....
Yes. I think it's good for Bennett to let go of it. He can either keep it as a bad memory, or turn it into a good memory.
Be brave. It's taking someone a lot of courage to tell you— let them say it.
At least the other half are asking me if I have a girlfriend? I'm not picky, anyway. You fall for who you fall for.
Yes. Both of them get embarrassed when praised. Both of them are bottomless pits. If you put the two of them in a buffet, they could eat it all. They are both hardworking, even if Bennett doesn't seem like it sometimes. They're both brilliant.
Am I?? I'm not sure what I did, but if you let me know, I'll apologize!
When I was a child I was kicked by a horse and ever since I haven't wanted to be near them, so I would choose the horse sized duck. If I have some bread I'm sure it would be nice to me.

8 221Fairy Godmother Inc. (Apollo's Angel- Book 1)
"All you must do is sign on the dotted line and all your romantic dreams will come true," the Fairy Godmother says with a twinkle in her eye. This is what happens when you do not read the fine print in a very detailed contract, you miss all the things that are immediate deal breakers. Viola Vonsula, a proud resident of New Orleans, lives on the top floor of an old Victorian mansion on a very normal street. But normal is no longer a word she can use to describe her life since signing the official contract of Fairy Godmother Inc. They forgot to tell her that she would be competing against other women in a very dangerous game. A game where she would be thrust into an alien world for the mere hope of catching the dashing Prince's heart. And let me say this, this prince is one hot alpha-male that has a serious attitude problem. We do not get along save for the fact that he can turn my insides to mush with one look. But the silver lining here is that you can have a happily-ever-after if you survive. You can't fall in love if you're dead. It tends to spoil the romance.

8 122I Need To Exchange My Demon, Please
Marcus narrowed his eyes at her and brought a hand up, tangling his hand in her hair and tugging on it so she was looking up at him. "You're asking for it, Mila. I could have you moaning my name and begging for more in seconds," he said, squeezing her ass and rubbing himself against her. Mila inhaled sharply and let out an involuntary whimper, craving to be closer to him, with nothing in the way."You're all talk," she said breathlessly. "All talk, no action. You talk too much," she said, looking up at him with darkened eyes. "I'll believe it when I see it."Marcus growled, planting another hard kiss on her lips, pinning her to the wall with his body as his hands slid down lower on her ass, fingers curling around her inner thighs and getting dangerously close to where she was already wet for him. "You're going to eat those words, Mila," he said against her lips, pushing off the wall and carrying her towards the bedroom. "You're going to eat them while I fuck you so good you scream my name."Mila is desperate for money. So desperate she is willing to do anything to get it and has tried most things. She reaches the end of hope that she will get the the necessary amount in time to take care of the person who needs it, until she remembers her life insurance. The life insurance she gets through her work could cover everything, the only issue being it requires her death and a suicide-clause means she can't do it herself. Desperate enough to sacrifice her life, she finds hiring someone to do it too expensive and one night while drunk, she turns to her superstitious roots and tries to summon a demon to do the deed for her. Several failed attempts later, she's surprised to discover it actually worked, and a surprisingly attractive demon named Marcus is standing in her living room, refusing to accept her request and sparking a lot of feelings she wasn't expecting to have for a demon from hell.this book comes down Nov 1st, then only on patreon
