He held out the phone to her. Summon Tyler to your rescue. Wordlessly, she took the phone from him. Her finger hovered over the buttons, then she dialed. She ordered a cab. Too little, too late, Jake thought as they waited in silence for the taxi. And if she was the same old Sabrina, one way or another, he would convince her to do what he wanted. In her new role, she would do so much to help children and teens with spinal and other serious injuries. To give them hope.

Nothing could be more worthwhile. She just wished she was a little more wide-awake for this meeting. A silver-haired woman, a slightly younger brunette and two middleaged men were already seated at the antique mahogany table. Was it her imagination, or did four pairs of eyes drop to her thighs? Richard introduced her to the board members.

Focused on clenching her thigh muscles in an attempt to minimize their bulk, Sabrina struggled to absorb their names. Richard pulled out a green velvet-upholstered chair for her, the other side of the table from the others. He took his seat at the head, which meant she now had five people staring at her. Behind the coffee, through glassfronted cabinet doors, she saw an array of spirits. A stiff whiskey held sudden appeal. His gaze slid away. Sabrina got a hollow feeling behind her ribs.

As you said, Richard, my past injuries and my public profile make me the ideal candidate. The silver-haired woman spoke up. One of the men cleared his throat. Maybe something severe and black would have been a better choice.

She rubbed her arms. This was how Jake must feel, poised to lose the primary. She had a lot of new fans since the Miss U. People with serious concerns.

The media will soon lose interest in my, uh, deficiencies. Someone who truly understands the difference our school will make? What mattered was that she could show them she was unique. Someone who can talk about the effect on the entire family. More orthodox qualities.

Sabrina whisked her trembling hands into her lap, and was embarrassed to see her fingertips had left ten smudges on the glossy tabletop. Why should they? Had a string of unlikely, unfulfilled ambitions, culminating in the ignominy of the Miss U. And now the injured children she wanted to help would have to rely on someone else to champion them. The only person who believes in me is me. The thought left an unpleasant, metallic taste in her mouth. At last, someone was giving her a break. She smiled at him, more warmly than he deserved.

We need backing at the highest level of the state legislature. Certainly not because of your involvement. She needed to say something to shut these people up, once and for all. Something big, no half measures. What would Jake do? A desperate measure. Jake would do whatever it takes. Including Sabrina, who was fighting the instinct to slink down in her seat.

But then, Jake always said she spoke before she thought. Richard addressed the board members. Kids with severe injuries are an emotional issue—every parent dreads their child being in an accident. That is, as far as my commitments to the Injured Kids Education Trust allow. Sabrina sat back and waited. Significant glances fired across the room. Richard picked up his pen, made a few notes. He cleared his throat. Sabrina held her breath as the earlier contempt evolved into congratulatory murmurs. What mattered was that she could do this job. Her exultant whoop took the directors aback.

She toned it down to an emphatic nod. Now he brings out the whiskey. The oblivion was tempting.

But she was responsible for her own future now. She stretched her mouth into a smile. Which meant Sabrina had to figure out her own way to tell Jake, and to enlist his support. A staff member told her Jake had a couple of media interviews this afternoon, after which he would go directly to the senior art exhibition at Wellesley High, a private school in Buckhead. Sabrina left a couple of urgent but non-specific messages.

Scarlet Woman? She just needed to tell him about it before anyone else did. Sabrina tipped her head back, closed her eyes and tried to plan what she would say. Her mind persisted in playing out scenarios that left her…nervous. The official opening was at seven-thirty. It was seven now, and there was no sign of the guest of honor. Maybe he was picking up his date. Did Jake have a girlfriend? A girlfriend would complicate matters, to put it mildly. Tyler would have told her if Jake was seeing someone, he always did.

As if he worried she might be hurt at the unexpected sight of Jake with another woman.

Her knee-length white silk shift dress, its high collar threaded with gold and silver, was very classy. Lots of gravitas. Perfect for the spokesperson of a charitable trust. Her dad should be here, too. Sabrina made the requisite small talk, but with more difficulty than usual. With every passing minute her sense of urgency grew. She sipped her wine, but the excellent vintage, which she knew should taste peachy with a hint of oak, might as well have been antifreeze. She paid scant attention to the artworks people pointed out to her. The exhibition was titled Climb; students had been asked to create paintings or sculptures on the theme of upward movement.

She was talking to Duncan Frith, the school principal, when she saw Jake shouldering his way through the throng. At first glance he looked ultracivilized—not to mention gorgeous—in his dark custom-made suit and white shirt. As he neared her, Sabrina realized his expression was thunderous, his mouth set in a grim line that promised zero tolerance for accidental announcements of impending nuptials. He knows. Even as her brain reminded her she needed to speak to him, the instincts honed by a lifetime of pampering told her to run.

She would grow up and take responsibility next week. No longer an option, she conceded reluctantly.
