The hair on Aaron’s arms stood on end.

He thought of all the benefits Mia had promised him and squeezed his eyes shut.

When he opened them again, they held nothing but fanatical devotion to Mia.

“Of course, I know. Mia, you’re the person I love most in this world. Nothing can change that.”

Mia finally smiled, satisfied.

“Good boy.”

Aaron smiled back and carried Mia into another elevator.
