The airplane doors close right after we settle into our individual pods. I sink into the seat and take a deep breath. Julian leans across the aisle. "You okay?" he asks again.

I nod. "Yes, I'm fine," I give him a tired smile, like I’m a Good Samaritan who just had to help an ailing traveler, not a secret agent who just killed someone in the ladies room. "I feel bad for the woman."

Julian nods, brow serious—he’s concerned for her too. “I hate stomach bugs.”

An image of Red pushed into the closet, her broken face and unseeing eyes tilted toward her chin, sends a wave of disgust over me. One more harmless nightmare? Like Vlad convulsing on the dance floor and Jack’s teeth on my breasts…

The flight attendant approaches, interrupting my train of thought. "Can I get you two anything before we take off?" she asks.

Julian orders himself a glass of wine, and I get a seltzer…"Wait," I say. The woman turns, her elegantly arched brow raised. "I'll take a brandy, too.”

“I have a nice cognac.” She leans toward me a little. “Basically the same thing,” she almost whispers. What a fantastic cap to this day. Clearly I so belong here. The flight attendant moves off and Julian gives me a smile. The rumble of the engine vibrates up through my seat.

I may not know the difference between cognac and brandy but I survived.

Drink in hand, I begin to relax as the plane speeds down the runway and lifts into the sky. This wasn’t a nightmare. This happened. An assassin attacked me, and I killed her. Jack attacked me, and I killed him. I’m the one who lives.
