Mia's pulse quickened, and she knew she had to act fast before she went mad with all the things ringing inside her head. With all her strength, she wrenched her arm free from his grip, yanked the key from his fingers, and bolted toward the door, praying she could unlock it before he caught her again.
She managed to open the door before Owen could stop her, but she knew he didn't want to stop her this time because if he wanted to, she wouldn't have been able to open the lock before he caught up to her. The moment she stepped out, she heard his voice from behind.
"If you don't believe the things I said, ask Wayner about Mimi, his childhood sweetheart. Run as much as you like, Mia, but you'll come running back to me when you realize you are not that Mimi he likes. We belong together."
