We join our lips again, it is surprising how his breathing does not fail during kisses. At all times I enjoy her light gasps and giggles when I bite her fleshy lips.

It had me crazy.

She knew how to bring me to my knees using two simple lethal tools: a challenging look and a heart-stopping smile.

CHAPTER 27

THE NOT PERFECT COUPLE

???????????????

Emily

They were two long weeks where my body hurt and I tried to get out of bed, it was difficult for me to breathe, adding that at night I always imagined how the water entered my mouth and nose and I tried to scream under the water for someone to rescue me. At night I always had some bad nightmare where I was drowning until Salvatore picked me up to wrap me in his arms.

Finally the tests are over and with the rehabilitation I have done quite well, they have given me a device with which I practiced to strengthen my lungs. There were three tubes with three plastic balls and a tube in which he blew so that those balls would rise. Today I finally had an optimal result from Adam which made Salvatore plan a getaway to the beach, I wanted something outside of Calabria, but that meant going by plane, which I don't feel confident doing right now .

I don't feel comfortable, I know that at some point I'm going to get over it, however, I have to take my time and the beach house isn't bad at all, a lot of good things happened there on my birthday that I wouldn't refuse to practice.

—Can I have relations?

—The best thing is that you abstain for a while, your lungs are filling with strength —Adan confesses—. If so, don't make it anything difficult, fast-paced, or high-impact that will speed up your breathing too much. Remember that before he woke up in the hospital he had a seizure, his heart is fine, but you have to be careful.

"Okay," I smile with my mouth closed, "nothing fast."

—Are you taking pills? I can give you some since in these weeks you have not taken a contraceptive, only the prescribed medications.

—No, I have the IUD and it is in order.

-Excellent.

I listen to the last instructions, when I leave the room with my suitcase ready I hear laughter, through one of the windows I notice Ginevra and Domenico who are playing with a volleyball. I go down with Cookie at my side and see Salvatore entering through the main hall, quickly approaching to carry my bag.

—I'm fine, Adam said we can fuck.

The mere mention of the word that comes out in a spit baffles him, and I start to laugh.

“Get some good lemonades,” I compose myself. And also the other thing.

—For me, your health comes first.

—And I'm in good health.

He tries to grab my bag, but I don't let him because I want to make it very clear to him that I'm fine.

—Two weeks in bed sunk my butt, let me walk and carry my things.

—Your ass is still phenomenal, principessa.

—Well, let me carry my things because when we go to the beach house I'm going to stuff myself with fruits and lemonades covered in ice in the shape of spheres.

—Do you especially want ice in the shape of spheres?

—Yes, and stars too, with lavender inside or chopped fruits.

I walk past him making him put down the handle of my bag, Cookie and I walk out the door and Nadia opens the door for us to get in. On this occasion, if I hand him my bag so he can put it in the trunk, he gets in, putting on dark glasses and rolls down the window while we leave the house that is run by the other two children. They have behaved as such with Salvatore, they make him fulfill their whims and even Salvatore sometimes brings them food as if he were a maid because they make him tantrum. I think it's because of Leone, they are alone and having Salvatore is an excellent opportunity to spend time with him, and exploit him.

-You are excited?
