I hesitate.

Her gaze widens, "You hooked up with Axel, didn’t you?"

"Kind of," I murmur.

"OMG, tell me everything."

Let’s see, he took a bullet for me, then I watched over him as he fell into a coma. When he came out of it, he had no idea who I was and his memory was patchy because of his head wound. Oh, most likely, he’s out to get the Sovranos, who will probably never let him get away with how he threatened someone close to them. Oh, wait, he’s also a long-lost brother of the Sovranos, so it, in fact, makes him one of the Mafia, or worse.

"Well?" She scows into the screen, "Have you slept with him? I mean, you are staying with him, aren't you?"

"I told you, I am not staying with him with him," I rush to explain. "Just in the same house, but different rooms."

"Yeah, right," she snorts, "bet you’ve already paid a few visits to his room."

My face heats.

"Knew it," she crows. "So, how was it? Did he make you come? Have you guys slept together yet? And how many orgasms has he given you, anyway, you—"

"Stop," I hold up my hand, "it’s not like that. It really isn’t. Given the circumstances, it was best that I move in with him. You know that."

"Circumstances?" She frowns. "It can’t be. You’re not pregnant, are you? I mean, you only met him two weeks ago, so I suppose that’s not impossible, but still."

I groan, "I am not pregnant. Didn’t you hear what I am trying to say? I haven’t slept with him."

"Aww, why not? You are attracted to him, and considering he asked you to move in with him, he must like you too. Why don’t you make the most of the situation by, at least, getting a few orgasms out of it? Sleep with him; get him out of your system; just don’t marry him." She stabs her finger in my direction.

"I am not going to marry him," I laugh.

"I’m warning you, that's all." She tosses her hair over her shoulder. "These hot Italian men can be tricky. They use their cocks to manipulate you, then before you know it, you end up married to him, and you don't want that."

"Actually," I bite the inside of my cheek, "I do hope to get married one day soon. I know it hasn't been an easy experience for you, but I hope I'll meet the right man soon."

"So, this Axel chap isn't the right man?"

"Of course, not."

"All the more reason to fuck him, and then you can share all of the juicy details with me," she says in a bright tone.

"I'll do no such thing." I scowl.

"So, you do have details, but you won't share them with me?"

"No, no, there are no details. There's nothing to share." My cheeks flush.

"You're lying. I can tell," she blows out a breath, "but fine, have it your way. I won't push."

"Thanks," I murmur.

"And there goes my chance to live vicariously." Her lips turn down. "I was banking on you to take my mind off of my own problems."

Is your ex still causing you trouble?"

"He's an asshole," she says in a matter-of-fact tone. "If he has his way, I'll never get to see my baby girl again."

"I am so sorry you have to deal with this, Elsa."

"Anyway, let's not talk about my problems. Why don't we go out tonight? You can bring Axel. That way, I can, at least, get to meet him."
