turned to Raven, his head tilted to one side slightly, and said, “Why
did you leave?”
“That
isn't an answer, Anansi,” snapped Raven.
“Perhaps
you should ask a better question then,” said Anansi. He tried to
wrap an arm around Raven's back but Raven stepped away out of his
reach. “Why did you stay?” he asked again. “Why didn't you
leave with me?”
“It's
a good job with good pay,” Anansi shrugged.
“And
it doesn't bother you? Being His Majesty's attack dog?” spat Raven,
a little more sharply than he'd intended.
“Why
would it?” asked Anansi, remaining frustratingly calm.
