“This is not how I’d planned to spend Christmas Eve,” Napoleon grunted as he pushed the donkey out of the stall. It made way reluctantly, and Illya gently lowered the woman into a more comfortable position in the dry straw.

“Not how they planned to spend it either, I’ll bet.” Illya’s voice was as soft as the fall of the snow outside; Mother and child were finally asleep.

The irony of the situation struck Napoleon. “You don’t happen to have any gold, frankincense, and myrrh on you?”

“Do I look like a Wise Man to you?”

“A wiseguy, maybe.”

Napoleon yelped; the donkey had bit him on the leg.
