Evie's eyes fluttered open, only to observe the Ascendancy walking away. The warmth and familiarity that nearly caught her up was completely removed, and she felt like an island suddenly realizing it was utterly lost at sea.
She blinked in her sudden solitude, and whipped around to confirm that she was indeed alone. She hadn't imagined their connection. She could not have been wrong! How could he just walk out on her like that?!
She clutched the cross necklace and mumbled a prayer for guidance. Her ire cooled as the spirit of Jesus touched her heart. She had not been wrong about her purpose here. Junior congresswoman though she was, she had more leverage to reroute the CCD's place in the world than any other dignitary come before. Her first night in the Kremlin and she arranged for the donation of record-setting billions of dollars for charitable purposes. Ascendancy thought it was his machination, but it was Evie that inspired the cause. She could not let this accolade slip away. Ascendancy had to acknowledge it. He had to admit it, if not to her, then to himself.
The peace of God gave her strength, and she channeled God's power to her needs. "Wait,"
she called so that the flows carried her voice to him.
She hurried to catch up with him, and ignored the agents always shadowing him as she pushed past their barricade. "I will hold you to your promises, just as I said I would. But I will not let you leave until you tell me why you would do all this. Tell me."
She demanded, yearning to hear the validation she knew in her heart to be true.
God give her strength, she knew why, but she had to hear him say it.
