navigators. Poor guy. But, much as she wanted to, she wouldn’t bring it up or apologize.
A ten-minute cruise down the main highway brought the Firebird to the exit for Tangle Lake. It was late, and not a lot of cars were out and about. Valor didn’t live far from the exit.
“There’s a flight to Australia tomorrow afternoon,” she said. “You know your credit card number?”
“I do. Book the tickets.”
“Sounds like a plan. Flying over an entire ocean is not going to be as fun as tonight was.”
“You’re not much for flying?”
“That’s putting it euphemistically. Okay, give me your number.”
He relayed his number to her while parking before her building. The autoconfirm promised an email soon. When Valor opened the door and stuck out a leg, he grabbed her forearm, stopping her from leaving.
“Thanks for tonight,” he said. “We work well together.”
“That we do. Thanks for trusting me. This spell will work, Kelyn. I promise that.”
He nodded. “I’ll pick you up tomorrow a couple hours before the flight.”
“See you then. Thanks!”
As the Firebird rolled away, Valor had to stop herself from giving a little wave in its wake. Like hey, yeah, that was fun. Just spending time with the guy had been fun. And watching him ride the deer? She had to tell her friends about that one.
With a sigh, she wandered toward her building. The feeling that she should have leaned over and kissed him in thanks for the adventure was strong. A missed opportunity. Generally, she was a take-life-by-the-horns-and-ride-it kind of chick.
She knew why she was skittish around Kelyn. Same reason she’d given up on ever finding love. Men didn’t consider her a woman. She simply wasn’t...
“A real girl,” she said, and followed that with another heart-clenching sigh.
Had she been able to accomplish the spell that night in the Darkwood, would she be singing a different tune now?
Could Kelyn ever see her as a woman?
Because she wanted to kiss him again. No, she needed to.
