'Looking for someone?' Lan teased when he dropped off the next lot of feed.
Moiraine gave him a stern look. She had scanned the distance when he'd arrived, a fact not gone unnoticed.
'She's gone shopping. Hosting a party tonight. You're welcome to come.'
As expected, he had induced instant panic in her at the thought of a social gathering.
'I don't think I can.'
'Open bar, tiny nibbles. She'll make you a cup of tea if you ask nicely.'
'No.'
'I'll pick you up an hour after your last lesson. Give you time to get ready. When is your last lesson?'
'I'm washing my hair.'
'Splendid. Me too. We'll look gorgeous. Pick you up after dark.'
Lan grinned and drove off. Here was his chance to try a little matchmaking and he wasn't going to let Moiraine slip away this time. She had a habit of sneaking away early. Siuan might be just what she needed.
