ELENA

Alessandro made a satisfying sound when my lips landed on his. I had forgotten how soft they were. I gave him a quick peck on the lips and tried to move away, but he pulled me closer to himself.

“What are you doing?” I seethed through clenched teeth.

He shrugged. “We aren’t done here.”

“But I am.”

“No, you’re not. I said kiss, not that chaste peck on the lips.”

Before I could reply, his lips came crashing down on mine. I sucked in a sharp breath as he used his tongue to guide my mouth open. I slightly parted my lips, and he slipped his tongue inside.

The world around us blurred into quietness; the only thing that mattered in that moment was the way his mouth was sucking and savoring my every breath. And I hated the way I was enjoying this.

I felt a dull ache low in my belly, and I knew it was time to wrap it up before I did something stupid like grinding my body against his in public.

Someone cleared their throat. Alessandro sighed before pushing me away softly. My eyes landed o

    ALESSANDRO I listened or at least tried to as Mr. Rossi went into stories about his business and how it grew to what it is now. Rossi is the CEO of the most successful jewelry company in Milan. His rags-to-riches story is one I could recite word for word, given how many times I’ve heard it. So has everyone else in the business world. He’s a good and respectable man, which is why I try my best to pay attention, but my mind was elsewhere—particularly on someone.I haven’t seen Elena since after the kiss. Knowing her, she’s probably in some corner hiding away from embarrassment. I wouldn’t be so worried if Victor wasn’t here too.“Would you like to hear about my journey to the Philippines?” Rossi asked eagerly, waiting for a positive reply.“That won’t be necessary,” I replied.His smile dropped. “You don’t?”“I mean, I wouldn’t mind but I have to find my wife.”His smile returned. “Of course you do. Newlyweds… when my wife and I got married, I wouldn’t want her out of my sight—”He jus

    ELENA“Thank you,” I mumbled to the stranger only to turn and find a grinning Alex staring at me.I blinked. “What are you doing here?”“My parents were invited, so I tagged along,” he replied, looking so good in his tuxedo.I nodded, trying to steady myself. “Well..have a great night.”I tried to leave but he caught my arm gently.“Wait..one glass?”I shook my head. “I’ve had enough of that. Any other glass will get me drunk.”He pinched the bridge of his nose. “We can dance, at least?” His eyes pleaded.“I don’t think that’s right.”“Please,” he pushed on.I looked around the party. No one was going to notice anyway, and my so-called husband was talking to another woman.I was lonely and bored.One harmless dance didn’t sound bad at all.“Okay,” my voice was low, “just one dance.”“Yes!” He fisted the air, and I couldn’t help but laugh.He took my hand and led me to the floor. We found space between two couples and started swaying to the beat of the music.His hands rested on my wai

    ELENAI thanked the stars when Luisa pulled me out of my parents’ scrutiny.I wasn’t ready to listen to Mamma make comments about my body.I snatched another glass of wine from the server, having emptied the last one.Luisa and Alessia eyed me suspiciously, making sure I wasn’t getting myself drunk. I was still sober—for now.We were at the corner where a makeshift bar had been created, chatting about high society.“And that woman over there,” Alessia nodded to a woman.I stylishly tipped my head to have a look. The woman in question was dressed in a tight red dress. She should be in her forties but could pass off as thirty.“What about her?” Luisa and I said in unison as we dragged our eyes from her, where she was pressed against an older man, who I presumed was her husband.Only explains why they’re sandwiched together and looking like they might need a room.“That’s her fourth husband,” she whispered close enough that no one else could hear.My eyes widened. “What?”She nodded slow

    ALESSANDRO I winked at Elena as I extended my hand for her to take.She rolled her eyes subtly, in a way the crowd cheering for us and the paparazzi snapping countless photos wouldn’t notice.She hesitated for a moment before placing her slender hand in mine. I clasped our hands together and pulled her out of the car.“Mr. and Mrs. DeLuca, over here!” cameras flashed at us as the shots began.After a minute, I was done with it. I looked at Elena to see if she was ready to go in. She nodded, and we went inside.The paparazzi weren’t allowed into the party, which was for the best. If someone were to follow me around taking shots all night, I’m quite sure they’d witness me blowing up or doing some shit I wouldn’t want ending up in the media.The party was in full swing when we got in. Elena quietly removed her hand from my elbow, where it had been tucked in.“Glad you made it,” Mr. Moretti said, scanning us up and down.His eyes swerved to his daughter, though I wasn’t sure why he looke

    ELENAI let out an exasperated breath and stared at Alessia through my phone.Tonight was the party Papà had planned, and all the clothes I had picked didn’t seem to fit in. There was always something wrong with them,either I didn’t like the way I looked in them, or they weren’t exactly what I was going for.At this point, I was done and ready to call it a night. But knowing who Papà is, he would come here and drag me out. God forbid his daughter doesn’t attend the party he threw.“I’ve told you, all these are amazing,” Alessia said, equally frustrated by my indecisiveness.We’d been at this for close to an hour, and I knew I should free her.“You know you don’t have to do this with me,” I said, picking up the phone. Her face covered my whole screen.Behind her, I could see the dress she had picked out. She had bought it in Paris.“I know,” she mumbled, “but I still want to be here. You need to be sure Papà doesn’t chase you back home to change,” she joked, but I knew she was serious.
