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?"

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.
