“Don’t move. I’m here to save you,” his tone was low, sounding nervous. During the last encounter, she was unaware of him, but this time the situation was different. Michael’s heart was pounding out of his chest, matching the rhythmic pattern of Claudia’s. He fought back the urge to hold all of her tenderly in his arms. This was the second time he came to her rescue. It was just as difficult, if not even more and heart breaking to touch her. Her proximity was overwhelming. His heart felt light with happiness, yet the pain of leaving her and her not knowing him was tormenting, ripping through his heart.

“Then why are you holding me hostage?” Her tone was tolerant, though she should be angered at the person holding her. There was something about the sound of his voice that gave her comfort. She heard his voice before, but when and where?

“I’m not holding you hostage.”

“Hmmm…let’s see. You have your arms around me and won’t let me move…so I guess you have another definition of what a hostage is then?” she answered back with a sassy tone.

Michael smiled and laughed inwardly. He loved her spunky side. “I guess you’re right.”

“Let me go. I can take care of myself.”

“Just stay still. It’s dark. You never know what can appear.”
“Hmmm…so I’m your shield? What kind of hero are you?”

Michael lit a grin, trying not to laugh. “No. You are not my shield. And you’re right. I’m no hero.” But I used to be. Open up your heart, let me in and remember me. I want to be your hero again.

Claudia felt a sudden sadness in his tone so she decided to ease up. “Do I know you? Have we met?”
