CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Sergio
When Iâm apart from her, all I can think about is where she is, what sheâs doing. All I can think about is getting back to her.
When I return to Bella Notte, I can tell it's a busy night tonight. Our valets are working hard, trotting from one car to the next. Our parking lot is full, and there's an expectant energy in the air.
I visited Mario. Iâd gotten news from Gloria and asked some questions. I have my suspicions, but I'm not going to make any moves until I confirm them.
When I reach the back entrance to Bella Notte, I smell the comforting scent of garlic and olive oil. My heritage. Edenâs done her best to combine Italian traditions with American comfort food, and even though our clientele is smallâthe main focus is providing a place for people to meet, our kitchen only an added perkâthe feedbackâs incredible. My stomach rumbles with hunger, and I'm comforted with the knowledge that Eden is the one overseeing our kitchen.
I wonder what she has in store for us tonight. I don't care what she's cooking, I like eating what she makes. She puts love into everything, and it's evident.
For the first time in a long, long time, I feel like I'm coming home.
I'm not exactly sure what tonight is going to hold. I've held back from her. I haven't wanted to hurt her. But after last night, I realize that my assumption about what she needs has been wrong.
And Christ, does that make my pulse race. She craves what I can give her.
The night is in full swing. I glance toward the kitchen but usually by this time of night, Eden is just overseeing the rest of the kitchen staff. It's unusual for a club like this to have a full-service restaurant in it, but given how much she enjoys this, I'm thinking of expanding.
I almost feel nervous, like I'm going on a date.
I donât⦠date.
I hook up.
I fuck.
I dominate.
But this feels different.
I can't tell Romeo I'm breaking off my engagement. Not now, when he's sitting by his brotherâs side after thinking he was going to lose him. I will, though. Once things settle down with Mario, I have to.
I wouldn't even know how to explain to Eden why I was engaged to be married. I can't stand the thought of betrayal in her eyes, or anything even close to hurt.
"Boss?" I look up. Gino is staring at me with a curious expression on his face.
âYeah.â
"So that directive you gave us⦠forbidding Eden from going anywhere in the club⦠we still holding fast to that one?"
I narrow my eyes at him. "Yes, unless sheâs with me.â
He holds up his hands in surrender. "Okay, okay. Just checking."
She is still not allowed anywhere near that club without me.
âDid she go in without me?"
"I haven't seen her," he says, as if he's the one who's about to get into trouble and not her.
"Good. See that it stays that way. She is not allowed in that club, unless Iâm with her.
