Mundane Monday #103

Happy Monday!! Where in the heck did this weekend go? It went by a little too fast for me. I'm thinking a little bit of Will will start your mornings off right & will get you ready for our CA read along that will start in a couple weeks!


"Singing the praises of our fair city?" a light voice inquired. Tessa whirled, and saw Will, leaning against the frame of the doorway. The light from the corridor behind him outlined his damp-looking hair with gold. The hem of his dark overcoat and his black boots were edged with mud, as if he had just come from outdoors, and his cheeks were flushed. He was barehanded as always. "We treat you well here, don't we, James? I doubt I'd have that kind of luck in Shanghai. What do you call us there, again?"

"Yang guizi," said Jem, who appeared unsurprised by Will's sudden appearance. "Foreign devil's."

"Hear that, Tessa? I'm a devil. So are you." Will unhitched himself from the doorway and sauntered into the room. He flung himself down onto the edge of the bed, unbuttoning his coat.
