Chapter 775

Leda gave a little nod toward the overturned ottoman at the foot of the bed.

York got the hint immediately and scrambled to set it upright, putting it back in place with a sheepish grin.

"So, does this earn me a bit more time with you? Heh..."

York leaned against the headboard, chuckling softly. "Oh? Got someone to explain it to when you get back?"

"Can't you ever just talk straight?"
