A Sword in the Sky Page 4

  “Cruel woman!” he answered.

  “Let’s go get the bags. The sooner you get to your hotel, the better!”

  “Oh, you are heartless,” he said, smiling. They left their secluded corner. Each one walked with care.

  Almost out of the secure area, Aurora turned to him. “I see my mother and my sister there. I need to say goodbye now.”

  They looked into one another’s eyes. “Please give me your number, Aurora, so I can call you if you don’t call me.”

  She shook her head. “No. I’ll call. You had control this time, so I get it next time.”

  Clay smiled. “Okay. We’ll share control while it still matters. Once we trust each other, we won’t need to do that.”

  “You really do understand, don’t you?” Aurora said.

  “I do. I’ll rebuild your confidence in men, and you’ll rebuild your confidence in yourself. You’re a woman who’s true to her word, and that means everything to me. I would never betray your trust.”

  He bent down and kissed her one more time.

  “You’re my knight of swords,” she whispered.

  “I am.”

  “And I’m keeping the remote,” she added. And giving herself a little buzz, Aurora walked away, glowing as she never had before.
