The only sign that Jade had heard him at all was the fractional pause in the scritching of pen on paper. Peony grinned, spreading out on the couch in the other man's office.

But then Jade said very dryly, "I thought something similar. Of course, I could never have imagined the pile of debris, or the livestock," and Peony laughed, in spite of himself and everything else.
