We dragged her through all the people that were standing around looking at the guy on the dance floor. The crowd parted as if we were Moses and they were the Red Sea. Only once we were outside did the voice leave and my vision clear.

Holy fuck, that’s never happened before.

Before I could even catch my breath good and realize what was happening, Nora was already walking up the streets of Rome. She was stumbling around while trying to dirty wind as if she was in a Jamaican dance hall.

“Oh, it is most definitely time to go back to the hotel,” I told myself.

Jogging and nearly knocking people over, I caught up to her.

“Come on, Darlin!” I grabbed her by the arm.

She looked up and mumbled. “The Dark Prince.”

“What?”

She giggled and a hiccup came out. “Dasss what I calllsss you.”

Definitely drunk,I thought.

“Come on lets go get you to bed,” I began to steer her towards the hotel.

It was going to be a long walk back, I realized. The cobblestone feet beneath our feet seemed to pulse with every step. Every once in a while, I looked around as I helped her walk. My thoughts were all over the place but I wanted to make sure she got back to her room safely.

The Corsican in me wouldn’t allow anything else.

It had to happen or I risked another incident.

Looking down, I realized my hands that were usually steadier than a surgeons were shaking like a leaf in the wind. Sucking in a breath, I pressed on even when Nora tried to enter another club.

“Come on, I jussst wannntt to dannnce,” she was smiling at all the men passing by.

One woman snatched her man close to her as if Nora was a mugger ready to steal a purse. It occurred to me that I could carry her but I risked drawing even more attention to us. Finally we were nearing the end of the street when she gave caution to the wind and took off running back to the club.

“Oh my fucking God,” I grumbled.

Keep her safe,the voice roared, red was threatening the side of my vision again.

Blinking it away, I took a deep breath and caught up to her again. This time, I pulled her into an ally between the buildings. She sucked in some air, a cough hitching in her throat as the air pulled out of her. I was breathing hard from trying to stay in control of my own mind and Nora’s body.

Fuck, she feels good.

My body was pressed so firmly up against her chest the dress she wore threatened to pop her breasts out.

Take her now,the voice declared.

I had had enough.

Shut the fuck up,I told it.

Pussy,it replied.

Rolling my eyes, the voice finally subsided. It was like I could hear the outside world again; I could even feel wind rushing by and tickling the hairs on my bare arms. Maybe it wouldn’t talk again for days. I prayed it would be quiet.

Nora’s voice broke the silence. “You know, you’re very cute.”

She giggled again, her chest heaving. This woman was sexy when she wasn’t trying to be and initially that was why I’d asked her out.

I’d been in DeLuca Tech, sitting in the chairs outside of Sebastian’s office, waiting for what seemed like eternity. It was his twin daughters’ birthday and he actually had seemed eager to get home to them but was moving at the pace of a snail. Bored to death I’d finally stood and walked over to Nora’s desk. She’d been the subject of my interest in the office for longer than an hour.
