warmth floated over her that she
wondered why she ever had
thought the night chilly.
She lowered her head and closed
her eyes while Carlos lie d her
about the crowded dance floor.
How long had it been since she
had danced? Really danced?
Years, she knew, because soon
after she met Tod Patrick he had
taught her the dangers of running
her voice. He did not know, of
course, about the times she dane
ed alone in her own bedroom.

she was determined to remember
all steps and to learn new ones.
She knew why now. It was to
dance with Carlos some day.
She glanced up at h m now,
fighting that drowning sensation
with deep breaths, as though it
were a stage fright bugaboo.

Mallory had had nothing to drink
except Ponche Caliente-a hot
punch favored with many spices
and rose leaves-yet she felt as if
she were gayly intoxicated on
champagne. She wanted to re-
member everything about the
night. The stars that seemed to
be cutouts from gilt paper, glued
against the black skies, Offering
brightly until one looked at the
still brighter glitter Of the fiesta.
She wanted to remember the
strange texture of the air, a COM

blond girl. He managed also to
hold Mallory's hand. If Manuelita
saw, she gave no evidence. She
just dropped her head to the lux

lightly. Occasionally she turned
her head, perhaps only her eyes,
to give that little haughtily amused
smile of hers.

The region around Mallory's heart

Mallory Bakers voice was but

She Strengthened Indignantly.
Her ears knew they were not be-

voice of Carlos, yet they could not
recognize the person who spoke
so intimately. Princesita, a dulcet
princesita, she would have known
and loved. Princess, in clipped
English, was unknown and I'M

All the same, Mallory met him

Richard Blythe's greeting was
