He presses his head to mine, and together, we stare into each other’s eyes as we move as one. With Leo, I feel respected when we have sex. I don’t feel cheap or degraded. He makes sure to focus on my pleasure and whether I’m comfortable with something or not. He really is a changed man because I can’t even believe that the man above me could be the same man who could post a woman’s nude photos online.

Our breath mingles. Leo’s pace space grows faster as we make love. I grip his hips with my knees, holding on tight. The sounds coming out of us are the only sounds in the room. I could listen to Leo growl in his deep voice for hours and never get tired of it.

His erection hits that perfect spot within me, and it’s enough to send me over the edge.

But instead of staying quiet this time, I call out his name. Really call out. “Leo!”

Leo’s eyes flash as he continues to thrust into me. “I love hearing you scream my name. Say it again.”

“Leo.” This time I say it in more quietly, but it still spurs Leo on.

“Oh, Fran. Fuck. You’re amazing.” He thrusts once, twice, three more times into me before groaning his own release. “Francesca.” Leo buries his head into the crook of my neck. I take my time stroking the back of his hair, content to have him holding me. I plant a kiss on his shoulder. I just want to stay in this moment with him forever.

I don’t see any reason why I can’t.

Hannah,Emilia and Marco’s housekeeper, opens the door for us. “Come in. Dinner is almost ready.” She hurries off the moment we step inside as Marco greets us.

“Welcome.” He shakes Leo’s hand and gives me a half-hug. “We’re happy to have you guys over for a dinner party. Now that you’re married, I think it’s a good time to do it, especially before the baby comes.”

“Don’t remind me,” Emilia says, coming down the stairs. Marco rushes over to her to help her the rest of the way down. “I’m fine,” she says to him. “Remember, I’m not—”

“Dead yet,” he finishes.

She flashes a smile at her husband. “Exactly.” Emilia turns to us, giving me a large smile and Leo a nod. That’s progress. She’s not glaring at him for once. “Come on. Let’s go sit down.”

“Thanks for having us,” I say as I take my seat at the dining table, Leo next to me. Emilia and Marco settle in across from us.

“I’m happy to,” Emilia responds, running her hands over her stomach. “I wanted to spend some time with you before the baby comes. And Marco suggested Leo come, too.”

Leo smiles cheekily. “Don’t I feel special.”

Emilia sighs right as Hannah sets down a large pan filled with a roast chicken. “Marco thought it would be a good idea for us to get to know each other better because you’re Fran’s husband now. I still don’t like, but so far, my sister has been happy, which leads me to believe you haven’t royally screwed this up. Yet.”

“Emilia,” I say in a tired voice. “Can we just drop it? I want you two to get along.”

“Fine. I’ll drop it.” She grabs her napkin and places it in her lap before pointing at Leo. “Just remember—”

“Don’t hurt your sister, or you’re coming after me,” Leo responds. “I got it, sis. Francesca and I have been good. You don’t need to worry. I’m a changed man.”

Emilia huffs but doesn’t say anything. Marco just watches Leo with a contemplative expression.

We all dig into the food, and for a while, it’s nottootense as we eat. The conversation is kept to lighter topics, like hobbies and the weather.

“Have you had the chance to check out any other museums?” Emilia asks me. “She loves museums by the way,” she says to Leo.

Leo smiles as he sets his wine glass down. “Oh, I know. We’ve been on a date to one.”

“Really?” Emilia sounds so surprised that I almost want to tell her to stop.

“Tell her,” Leo urges me.

All eyes turn to me, and I resist the urge to sink down into my seat. “We went to the Natural History Museum. We spent the night there, actually. It was … pretty romantic.”

Leo puffs his chest out, looking incredibly pleased with himself. “I planned it all myself, just for Fran. I knew she’d appreciate it.” He gives me a smile meant only for me, and it makes me blush.

Emilia looks back and forth between us. “Well, that’s … good, actually. I’m impressed, Leo. And surprised. I didn’t know you had it in you.”
