Chapter 19

“It’s good to see you again, Connie. You look lovely.”

She smiled back. “You’re just saying that because we honked the car at you to hurry up.”

“No, he’s trying to steal you away from me so he shows up with both beautiful women in tow and me with none,” Sam teased. He waggled a warning finger at Elijah. “Don’t think I’m not onto you, pal.”

“You’ve got me.” Elijah winked at Connie. “I’ll just have to be more subtle with my flirting.”

She laughed, and Elijah settled back in his seat, closing his fingers over Jane’s.

And so the game begins.
