After Cody and his crew left, Stella sank into the couch, leaning quietly against Jasper's shoulder.
Jasper wrapped an arm around her. "What's up?"
"I'm just really happy, content," Stella said, hugging his neck. "Jasper, thank you."
He chuckled. "Thank me for what?"
"For everything." Stella smiled at him. "For meeting, getting to know each other, falling in love, being understanding, forgiving..."
Everything felt so perfect. She wanted it to last forever, to grow old together without parting.
Jasper held her close, his heart filled with contentment.
In the kitchen, Rosie pretended not to notice her brother and sister-in-law's intimacy as she washed the dishes. She saw nothing, knew nothing.

Jasper plucked a few hairs and stuck them in the door jamb as they left.
The road to the coal yard was clear, but the muddy track was so rutted and bumpy from repeated use that it nearly shook their guts out.
Armed soldiers guarded the coal yard, which was operated by the Kindle Society, and all the office staff were military dependents.
