THE HOSTAGE'S DILEMMA
“Is that what you guys call me? I’m Luca. And we, Natalie, have a mission together.”
A mission. With him? My confusion deepens, twisting into a knot in my stomach. “A mission? What are you talking about?”
He leans forward slightly, his brown eyes glinting in the faint light. “Our mission,” he begins, his voice dropping conspiratorially, “is to get Aaron and Mia back together. As soon as possible.”
“Why?” I demand, the single word a harsh whisper. Why would the boss, why would anyone associated with our operations, want Aaron Lombardi to find happiness, to reconcile with Mia? Isn’t it better that they break up and Aaron is destabilized?
