“You may taste it.” A grin spread across my lips as I twisted the glass stem in my fingertips, swirling the deep red liquid, noticing the Gibbs-Marangoni Effect, and inhaling the bouquet. Black currant, dark berry fruit, and leather were the qualities I detected. Next, I took a sip, allowing the wine to stay on my tongue as more flavors came to life. Tobacco, truffle, and cedar came to mind. “Delicious,” I said after swallowing. “Mrs. Luciano, you’re a connoisseur?”

Ezekiel turned to Aurelia, his eyes softening in gratitude. They stood before a stunning collection of exotic wines from the nineteenth century, meticulously displayed on polished mahogany shelves. The dimly lit room highlighted the wines' rich hues, casting a warm glow on the delicate glass bottles. Aurelia's gaze wandered over the impressive selection, recognizing some of the rarest vintages. Ezekiel gestured to the collection. "Some of the finest wines in the world. I thought you might appreciate them." Aurelia's eyes widened as she reached out to touch an 1869 Château Lafite. "This is incredible. Thank you for inviting me.”

The culinary experience at this high-end restaurant surpassed my expectations, leaving me in awe of the culinary mastery on display. To my surprise, Isaac went above and beyond by ordering a bottle of Bâtard-Montrachet, a red wine known for its opulence and commanding price tag. As I took my first sip, I understood why it was held in such high regard. The wine was a symphony of richness and power, enveloping my palate with its full-bodied nature. I detected a harmonious blend of intense aromas and flavors, ranging from the delicate notes of almonds to the vibrant essence of ripe apples. The wine whispered hints of white flowers and spices, adding depth and complexity to the overall experienc

Maria seemed to freeze, in all the time she’d known Melissa, she’d never once drank red wine on a business deal, even when her father was CEO and doing business in the area, if Melissa was with him, she always had bourbon. “One bottle of red coming up.” The lady’s Italian accent coming through. Maria dashed off, despite her years she could move. “So red wine? Why do I get the feeling that you only ever drink bourbon?” Blake asked a perfectly sculpted eyebrow raised. Smiling gently “I like Maria, but if she’d have got bourbon she’d have been back quickly, with red wine she has to go down to the cellar then pick a decent bottle, decant it, allow it to breathe for an hour, and we can take out t

Once she stepped away from the case, he’d have free rein to act with impunity. But she had no intention of backing down. Calvin took a sip of red wine alone. The Romanée-Conti, aged in treasured oak barrels and fine glasses, tasted warmer and deeper with time. Just by closing your eyes, you could almost smell the vineyard from that year—the sunlight stretched across the estate, warming the air, steeping it in memory. However, for human beings, time is an irreversible wheel—an unfillable gulf that, once passed, is forever cast in regret.

He collected wine glasses from a cabinet in the kitchenette and placed them on the counter. “Genevieve ?” She detached herself from the wall by the whips and sat on one of the bar stools he indicated while he poured them each a glass of wine. He should have chosen white. Something fruity and light like a Riesling or sauvignon blanc. The red was too strong and dark and made him think of blood and pain. It made him more eager, so that the gesture of trying to relax her would only come at a price to her later.

“Bring Sammy to me. Then take your soldiers and scour every corner of this land. No one rests until Deklan and Cedar are both kneeling before me.” Cena bowed so quickly it almost looked like he was falling, then scurried out of the room. I stood there, chest heaving, staring at the ruined wall. My hands itched for another bottle, and I gave in to the urge. I turned toward my wine shelf, the floor-to-ceiling monument of red glass and temptation. My favourite colour stared back at me, the dark crimson, deep and rich. Red wine always pleased me, not just for its taste, but because it looked like blood.

She lets out a low laugh but is still cautious. "It's hard to relax when you're analyzing me like a wolf looks at a lamb." I smile, picking up the glass of mineral water the waiter just served. "If I were a wolf, I would have already attacked." The sommelier returns with a bottle of Château Margaux 2015—a full-bodied red, with notes of cassis and tobacco that will pair perfectly with our dishes. While he serves, I watch Elizabeth. She studies the ruby liquid in the glass with curiosity, swirling it slightly before bringing it to her lips.

He had a penthouse suite, which I wasn't surprised by. When we got in, he excused himself to go and change and then told me where I could get some wine and where the glasses were. The penthouse was gorgeous. It had some inviting warm colours like velvets and whites and oranges. It was very tastefully curated. Probably done by a designer. Nobody had recognized when we were out because he was wearing a cap and had the hood on most of the time.

Chapter 45 Roman's POV The wine moved like silk inside the crystal glass, a slow, sensual ripple of deep red that caught the glow of candlelight. I tilted the bottle just so, pouring until the level kissed halfway, not a drop more. Precision was an art form, and tonight, I was its patient sculptor. The air between us felt stretched thin. You could’ve sliced it with a whisper. Across the table, Ethan King sat too still, face pale, eyes darting between me and the woman beside him.
