"Yeah, wow... I can't believe I didn't notice this one before." In the corner of the page was a short paragraph written in unusually small script. Jane bent her head closer to the page.

Jane cleared her throat. "It's fine..." She flipped the page, which had a Norwegian Ridgeback stretching across the book.

Jane looked up. "What? Oh... Um..." She skimmed the pages until she found one with a Hungarian Horntail painted on it.

Jane gave him a small smile, glancing over at him. "Thanks, I guess... So, um, just pick out a couple books and you can take them back to your common room. Just remember to give them back."

Jane folded up the blankets neatly and put the empty mug on the end table as she watched Riley look over the books.
