I’m back in the city.

There’s been no response.

None.

My breath catches when I realize the time. “Mama? Are you coming? We’re going to be late!”

She steps from the bedroom and informs me, “I’m as ready as I’ll ever be.”

When we’re in the hall, I loop my arms through hers not only for moral support but out of love. Neither of us lets go until we’re forced to by the pedestrian traffic outside our hotel.

Heels clicking in time against the marble floor, we pass security and board the elevator at Rockefeller Center where the LLF LLC office is located. Once inside, I can’t catch my breath. My mother reaches over and clasps my hand with the one not clutching her suitcase handle. “Calm, baby.”

“How can I?” I manage just as the elevator door opens.

We both exit. But before we pass through the frosted glass doors, opaque but for a Celtic symbol, she states, “Nothing is holding you here. You are not bound by a contract.” Nor by a vow you made in your heart, I amend silently.

“You’re right.” I reach for the door and jerk it open.

I’m startled when my mother stops short immediately upon crossing the threshold. Her face reflects surprise and wariness to find a magnificent redhead approaching us. She holds out a hand first to me. “Kensington.” She then turns to my mother. “Dr. Kensington. May I take your coats?”

As we shuck our outerwear, the redhead continues, addressing my mother, “It’s unusual we’re meeting like this again, but can I take a moment to thank you?”

“You’re welcome . . .?” She hands over her coat even as she stumbles over the woman’s name.

“Angela. Please call me Angie. Everyone here does.” She turns to me to take my jacket. “Your mom is kind of a badass.”

I relax fractionally even though Mama’s obviously confused at the titan-haired woman’s presence. “I know.”

“I was in a predicament one night when I heard you play at Redemption. She was fearless.”

That’s when the wood door behind Angie opens, and my mother turns to stone. Everything from her body to the expression on her face locks down. He murmurs, “Angie, honey, have you . . . Kensington. Dr. Kensington. Welcome to LLF.”

Mama’s voice reminds me of the time she tore a strip from my hide when I was plucked from Rodeo Ralph’s for underage drinking by Sheriff Lewis—stone cold. “Tell me you’re not Carys Burke-Lennan.”

The man takes no offense. His face creases into a smile. “No, Dr. Kensington, I’m not.”

“Good.”

“I’m her brother, Ward.”

She moves subtly closer, as if we weren’t already drawn together like two magnets.

“Dr. Kensington, what you saw that night isn’t what you thought.” Angie’s feather-soft voice captures both of our attention.

Completely lost as to the byplay, I watch as my mother holds out a hand. “Mr. Burke.”

He shakes it. “Thank you, Doctor.”

“For?”

His gaze slides over Angie’s smiling one. His lips curve. “For making me see what I should have long ago.”

Angie blushes before she picks up a tablet on her desk. “Let me text Carys and tell her we’re ready out here.
