Here is a very small, unedited snippet from Dragon 4. As always, no guarantee this will make it to the final copy.

“No,” Ryu told her in a firm voice.
She blew a cloud of smoke at him before putting her head back down. She didn’t have plans to go anywhere anyway. She was entirely too comfortable at the moment.
