Mia doesn’t talk.

I give her a few days to change her mind. A few more lonely nights spent thinking about her as I try to sleep in my own bed. I’m certainly logging more gym time right now. More surveillance time, too, though. Too much surveillance time.

I need to get her out of my house. Every night that I go to bed, I’m more and more tempted to take her back. Monday night passes and we don’t go out to dinner—she disappears with Vince instead. Tuesday comes and goes with no Mia sightings.

Wednesday I send for her.

She didn’t talk to the cops, but she didn’t tell anyone they spoke to her, either. I want to see if I can give her a little nudge. Is she keeping a door open, or is she distracted by all the bullshit we’ve put her through in the last week and she isn’t thinking about it?

This will be the first time she’s seen me since she left me at the dining room table and went off with Vince. I wonder if she’s dreading the meeting that I so look forward to.

When she appears at my door, I feel warmer. Some of the tension the last few days have built up within me dissipates. I’ve missed her. My gaze roams over her body, the girly red dress she selected for dinner tonight. She’s tense, probably worried how it will be to see me again. Morelli men are not famously good at accepting rejection and hers certainly stung, but seeing her now only makes me happy.

Briefly, I reconsider my plan to get her out of my house. Do I really want to move her in with Vince? I could just keep her here.

I feel myself obsessing, though. If I keep her under my roof, I’m going to steal her back from him. I won’t be able to help myself. I want her too much, and even though she chose him, I still think she chose wrong. He doesn’t appreciate all that Mia has to offer. He has absolutely no idea what to do with her.

She’s young, though. People make mistakes when they’re young.

I can’t help reminding Mia of the pull I have on her when she’s in my study. She tries to step out of line now that she’s back with Vince, but I swiftly remind her of her place.

I tell her about the poker game I’m hosting tomorrow night. I tell her she’s going to my cigar girl.

I offer her a chance to keep it secret from Vince, but she declines. Another bad choice. I have every intention of fucking her tomorrow night and it would benefit her relationship to keep that secret.

She tries for honesty, though. It’s the wrong call, but I don’t bother telling her so.

By the time she leaves, I swear I sense relief in her. Maybe she expected me to be like Vince, petty and punishing. Even Adrian convinced himself I was punishing her with the test.

She passed, though. Mia didn’t talk, even when we gave her every reason to.
