“Then let’s order some food. We have all night to do whatever we want.”

Over a dinner of flame-grilled steaks and a fresh green salad, followed by a fresh fruit salad, he told her about his day with Nicco. “Biba, we would have never gotten this far without what you did for us yesterday. And you should know…you’ve enchanted not just DeLuca Senior. Nicco adores you.” Cosimo leaned over to kiss her. “He told me to ‘go for it’.”

“He’s a very intelligent, very wise young man,” Biba said with a smile. “I’m glad you took his advice. So, you think it’s a beginning, or more?”

“I’m going to go with ‘a beginning’. He’s not ready to accept it wasn’t his fault his Mom died, and he wasn’t there. But it’s a start—some building blocks in our relationship. I was despairing I’d lost him…until you.”

Biba put down her fork and went into his arms, perching on his lap. “We’re good for each other, Cosimo DeLuca.”

He gazed up at her with those magnetic green eyes, and Biba felt her belly quiver with desire. He was so beautiful…herlover.She could hardly believe it. Cosimo DeLuca was her lover…and he truly loved her. Not just lust, but actual grown-up properlove. She leaned her forehead against his. “Cosimo?”

“Yes, my love?”

She grinned. “Take me to bed and fuck me senseless all night.”

And with a grin, he did just that.

Soon. They were distracted: by the photos, by their director fucking Biba.Good.It would save anyone else from being hurt when he took Stella away from them. And he knew exactly when to do it. Stella would be his by this time next week, and all his planning would have been worth it.

He could hardly wait.
