“Then fall in love or sleep with him?”

“Both!” I glared at her and she shook her head.

“Liar!”

Just at that moment, Giovanni came strolling out of the bedroom with my suitcase and handbag in tow. He had that smug grin plastered on his face once more and he nodded to Gigi before turning to me. “Ready?”

“Yes.”

“Nice to meet you Giulia. I will take very good care of her. Don’t worry.”

“Please do!” She grinned and gave me a wink behind his back which made me roll my eyes.

At this point, I am just convinced some people were just put on this Earth to test my patience and sanity!

When we got outside, I was surprised to see one of his Ferrari’s and a black SUV parked behind it. They were already getting a lot of attention from the passersby on the street, and I felt embarrassed as they all started whispering when they saw Giovanni and I climb into his Ferrari. I was so busy looking out of the window at them all that I jumped a mile when I felt Giovanni leaning over me. His face was inches from mine and my senses were invaded by his peppery and masculine cologne and minty breath. My eyes widened in alarm and my heart started thundering. Then I heard a click. He smiled and moved back as I realised he had put my seatbelt on for me.

“Safety first,” he smirked as he turned the engine on and we started to move through the small, cobbled streets, gaining even more attention from the crowds. I wanted to send a snarky comment back his way, but I needed a minute to compose myself from being so close to him. He smelt so bloody good; it should be a crime.

“Where is your family?” I asked after a few minutes of driving in silence.

“We are meeting them at the airport. Why? Did you hope I was whisking you away to keep you all to myself?” His molten eyes roamed my body suggestively and I narrowed my eyes.

“Of course not.”

“Shame. Because that’s what I dreamed about doing last night.”

My head snapped at his as a playful smile spread across his face. He kept his eyes fixed on the road and for a moment I thought I imagined his words. “What?”

“Nothing.” He shrugged and I dragged my gaze away from his bulging biceps in that short-sleeved top. “But just so you know, I really enjoyed the sex we had last night. And you did too.”

“Oh my god,” I folded my arms over my chest as a low chuckle came from his throat.

“That’s exactly what you were screaming. But bambola...” I turned my crimson face towards him as he looked into my eyes, making my whole body suddenly feel alive with electricity. “In reality it will be my name you will be screaming, not gods.”

I gulped audibly as my core tightened and I felt my arousal soak my knickers. Damn this body of mine! It never cooperated with me. “Well, you best enjoy those dreams, Giovanni, because they will never become reality.”

He smirked smugly but kept quiet. Even I knew my words were futile. He wasn’t going to stop and, as much as it made me curse myself, I was beginning to like it.

Know You Better

Giovanni

Iparked up on the private runway at the back of the airport where my jet was waiting for us. Mamma and my siblings were already onboard, as well as five of my best soldiers and Marco. I turned off the engine and glanced at Olivia’s beautiful face staring open-mouthed at the plane.

“I thought we were getting an EasyJet flight?”

I burst out laughing. “EasyJet? Please. If you were mine, you would never fly commercial again.” I opened the door and climbed out as my men from the SUV behind took our luggage onto the jet. I went to walk around to open the door for Olivia, but she had beaten me to it and climbed out herself. Urgh. She is really making this chivalry shit hard to do.

She was glaring at me after my comment, which only made me smile wider. It was the first time I had ever said something like that. Ever acknowledged that she could be mine. I liked it but clearly, she did not feel the same way. “Maybe I like travelling commercially!”

“No one likes being sandwiched between strangers with minimal leg room and shit food. And whoever says they do, is lying.” I said frankly, putting my hand on the small of her back to guide her towards the steps of the plane. My thumb caressed the soft skin that was exposed between her trousers and that sexy crop top she had on.

“It’s extremely small-minded to believe you know how everyone feels, don’t you think?”

“Have you ever been on a private jet before?”

She hesitated but raised her chin higher in the air. “Not all us commoners have the luxury of hopping on private jets every day.”
