Edwin and I emerged from the small room, his hand still resting protectively on my back. The hustle and bustle of last- minute preparations immediately hit us, assistants running back and forth, models being ushered into position, and the soft hum of the audience’s chatter drifting through the walls.
“I guess no one would have noticed our little tryst anyway,” Edwin mused under his breath with a smirk.
I glanced up at him, wiggling my eyebrows suggestively. But a sound caused us both to whip our heads toward the dressing
area.
“Owww! My ankle!”
Exchanging worried glances, Edwin and I rushed toward the sound. A small group had gathered in a huddle near the back of the dressing area. In the center of the commotion was a young woman, one of the models, seated on a chair with her head in her hands. Her shoulders shook as she cried out.
I hurried over, Edwin following closely behind.
“What happened?” I asked, kneeling in front of the model. She looked up at me, her face pale, tears clinging to her lashes. “I–I twisted my ankle really bad,” she stammered, wincing as she shifted her foot slightly. “I was fine earlier, but it hurts to put any weight on it now…”
Someone behind her chimed in, “She tripped backstage. I thought she’d just shaken it off, but…”
I glanced down at her ankle, which was already beginning to swell slightly under the delicate straps of her shoe. The show was minutes from starting. Panic might have been setting in, but I couldn’t afford that luxury–not now.
I took a calming breath, tapping into that silver pool of energy inside of me. With a reassuring smile, I reached out to touch/ her ankle. “May I?” I asked.
She winced, flinching away.
“It’s alright,” I murmured. “I’ll help you.”
