Ava

They’d worked out a routine in the past three weeks.

It had serious limitations, but whenever she was frustrated, Ava reminded herself that she had it better than every other family member with someone behind bars. They only got to see their loved ones during visitation, without a moment of privacy. The time she spent with Puck, talking, fucking, and strategizing, brought them closer than she’d ever thought possible. Along with Sage, Ava had contacted and started collaborating with the Office of Special Investigations. The OSI had initiated a narcotics investigation. Not that she expected to be kept in the know, but she hoped the investigators would be able to intercept telephone calls from jail and JPay, the service inmates used to email and video-call with people on the outside.

Ava’s days started at seven-thirty in the morning because life in prison started early. Puck’s sessions were her last of the day, but it was past three o’clock, and there was still no knock on her door. The nervous hum she experienced before seeing him morphed into a tight knot. Where is he? She checked her clock again. Fifteen minutes after the hour. There hadn’t been a lockdown or anything else to cause a change in schedule, and jail ran like clockwork. Had Puck gotten into another fight? Was he in the hole, again? Had he gotten caught doing something for Kingpin? A frisson of fear slithered down her spine.

She opened her cell phone but only found a text from Kat.

He was gone.

Ava slumped into her seat once more, a long exhale whooshing out of her lungs.

Really, Puck? An array of conflicting emotions tore through her. Relief and happiness were closely followed by a hefty load of nerves. Had he used her? Besides their intimacy and his declarations, the risk he’d taken with Kingpin had convinced her that he was serious. But perhaps she’d served her purpose, and now that he was free, he didn’t need her anymore. Because making zero attempts to contact her was not a show of commitment.

Ava grabbed the receiver of her work phone to call Sage, but insecurity surged through her. What if he didn’t want to see or hear from her again? Even if he hadn’t used her, she might not be important now that he was back in society. He was busy getting back to his life, Sammi, and his club. What if he was at his club at this very moment? She sucked in a breath. With another woman. The thought ignited a swell of jealousy in her. If he was at his club, he was currently
