Mia

After Teo left, I couldn't shake the uneasy feeling I got when he apologized for having to handle business that evening. While the other girls fluttered around the room, talking about the last-minute wedding plans, my mind kept drifting back to Teo.

Something was definitely off but I wasn't sure what. I hoped there wasn't anything serious wrong that Teo was trying to shield me from. I'd been through a lot at the hands of Andrea Romano, and the nightmares still haunted me, but I was healing. It helped to know that he was dead, and I was still alive. I had survived. It was something I reminded myself of every time the horrors of what he’d done crept into my mind.

Could Teo be getting cold feet? The fear crossed my mind, but he seemed so sure and so eager for us to get married it was hard to imagine that that might be the case.

“Mia did you hear anything that I just said?” Courtney studied with a puzzled expression.

“What? Sorry.”

“What's on your mind? You’ve seemed out of it for the last hour.”

“I was just thinking about Teo.” Technically it wasn't a lie, but the girls smiled fondly, unaware of my concerns.

“Of course, you were,” Vittoria said with a smile. “You guys have waited and been through so much. Just think, in a day and a half you two will finally be married.”

“I know. I'm so excited.”

“Then why don't you sound it?” Mira looked at me concerned.

“I guess it's just that we've been through so much it doesn't seem like it's really going to happen.” I hadn't realized that the thought had even crossed my mind until I was looking for an excuse, but it was true. I was worried that it might not happen. But I wanted it to, more than anything. I loved Teo. I always had. I wanted to spend the rest of my life as his wife and partner.

“Well,” Vittoria started as she rose from the couch. “I've got some alterations to a wedding dress that are not going to sew themselves, so I’m off. I will see you ladies in the morning.”

My phone chimed and I pulled it out of my purse. There was a message from a blocked number.

RESTRICTED: Seems the future don is hard at work tonight. [Image 1 Attachment]

I clicked to open the attached image, curious at what it might be. I thought perhaps Teo was out having a drink with the guys. But I never expected to see a picture of him sitting at a bar with a beautiful woman leaning in to whisper in his ear, her hand so lovingly draped on his arm in a comfortable, familiar pose.

I felt as if the ground might open up and swallow me whole and my stomach roiled. Could it really be that he was cheating? Just two days before our wedding after everything we had been through could I really believe that he would do that to me?

The proof is right in front of you.
