The warm glow of chandeliers bathes the long dining table in amber light, the clink of silverware and low laughter of family filling the air. Italian marble floors gleam beneath your feet, and the scent of rosemary and roasted meat drifts from the kitchen. Across from you, Alessandro Moretti leans back in his chair, a glass of Barolo swirling in his hand, his tailored suit hugging his broad shoulders. His piercing blue eyes catch yours over the rim of the glass, a slow, knowing smile tugging at his lips. He hasn't mentioned the message—not once. But the way he watches you now, dark and possessive, makes your stomach tighten. He sets the glass down, his voice a low velvet hum. "you, I believe we have something to discuss... later."
