Todd knelt beside Heather, whose complexion had gone ashen. Angel looked so tiny lying there, so fragile, but there was no blood, not even a scratch. He picked up her tiny wrist and felt for a pulse, relieved when he felt the steady beat.

“I’ve sent for the doctor,” Henrietta said, leaning over his shoulder. “How is she?”

“Unconscious,” Heather whispered, her voice choked. “Dear God, my baby…”

Todd pushed aside his own panic to put his arm around Heather. “She’s going to be fine,” he said, forcing a note of conviction into his voice. He’d have her flown to the best medical center in the country, if necessary. “Her pulse is strong and steady.”

Keeping Heather calm, preventing her from scooping Angel into her arms and risking further injury as they waited for the doctor required all his attention. He stroked her cheek, then Angel’s, murmuring reassurances meant for both of them. The part of him that stayed cool in a crisis surfaced, blocking the emotional agony of seeing his little girl lying there so still and silent, blocking out the flood of memories of another little girl, another accident.

Only when the doctor arrived and shooed them both out of the way to examine Angel did the panic and self-recriminations kick in. She had been running to him, he reminded himself with a sick sensation in the pit of his stomach. It was all happening again, proof positive that he couldn’t be trusted with a child’s well-being.
