A Moment in Time
“ She had a decision to make. More than one, actually. Extricating herself from Cole Morrison's life would be the kindest thing she could do for him and his son. On the other hand, if she simply ran away–and managed to get lost in the mountains again, no doubt–he wouldn't receive the promised gold from either Merriweather or Goodfellow.
Goodfellow was willing to pay more, and that was also where Jackie would find her unfinished portrait. She had to get to that portrait before the ...real Lolita showed up and cost Cole the gold and Jackie her time portal.
But, as long as it was completed, did it really matter whether the portrait was of Jackie or Lolita? Her time portal painting had been of the real Lolita, after all. Now that Jackie thought about it, though, she remembered the way the face in the painting had transformed from Lolita's to Jackie's.
Dammit, Clarke–get back to that portrait before it's too late.
She rolled her eyes skyward. Damn. Did the way Lolita's face had changed to hers mean Jackie's current fate was to be Lolita Belle? A sudden consideration made her flesh turn cold and she stiffened. Bracing herself with her arms extended behind her, Jackie considered the impossible. Of course, much of her life seemed impossible these days. Even so, she had to consider it.MoreLess
