“It will be drafted by tomorrow and ready for your signature, ” he breathed near her ear.
She gave in to a shiver. “Good. I can sign it when I return from visiting my nonna.”
“When did you decide to do this?” he asked, trailing that finger down her throat.
“After that episode with my brother,” she breathed, fighting the urge to tip her head back and sigh her pleasure.
“I’ll go with you.”
“No. I need to do this alone and you need to stay here with Cesare,” she said, and when his eyes narrowed she added, “Please. She wouldn’t understand me bringing my boss home.”
“Very well. We will sign the papers upon your return, then celebrate tomorrow night, hmm?”
“Yes,” she said, her breath quickening at the thought of lying in his arms again.
His fingers stroked her throat before spreading around her neck, not with threatening pressure but firm nonetheless. “Who is Rachel?”
She went deadly still, unable to move. He’d heard her talking to herself after all.
Gemma couldn’t swallow. Couldn’t do anything but stare up into his eyes that had gone hard and black again.
“The child of a dear friend,” she said, speaking the truth and knowing he’d doubt her.
“Don’t lie to me,” he said.
“I’m not,” she said.
She sensed the subtle shift of emotion in Stefano, a tightening of his muscles. A snap of annoyance in his eyes.
He pressed his face close to hers and she helplessly lifted her head for the kiss that wasn’t about to come. And why would she even want to kiss a man who was being irrationally obdurate?
But he surprised her with a quick, hard kiss that left her wanting so much more. He withdrew his mobile and punched in a number. “I’ll have my driver take you to the train station. He’ll be waiting for you at the door.”
“That isn’t necessary.”
“I insist.”
He was laying down an order that she had no intention of obeying.
She had something important to do before she boarded the train to Milan. Something that would only raise more questions if he knew. Questions that she still couldn’t answer.
“Thank you,” she said with a smile, and hoped to hell he couldn’t read the lie in her eyes.
