Chapter Nine

Layla reclined on the daybed on the forward deck, gazing up at the midnight sky strewn with stars. The air was balmy and a soft breeze caressed her bare shoulders and fluttered the hem of her short skirt. She couldn’t ask for a more romantic evening, yet Giorgio was locked in his office making phone calls to private investigators. She could see why his sisters were fed up. He went overboard. She wouldn’t like it if her brother—if he were still alive—had her boyfriend followed.

Or would she? It must be nice to have family that cared so much and who looked after one another. Meddling, interfering, yes, but Giorgio would be there for Tina if it turned out Fabio was cheating on her.

Still, she wished he’d stayed with her. After their hot tryst in the corporate box office and a great time at the football game, she’d been looking forward to another romp in the sack. Tonight he’d let his hair down for the first time since she’d met him. He’d been so cute when his team scored a goal, jumping to his feet for a victory dance, his hips doing that sexy shimmy.

He’d had fun, dammit. Why couldn’t he hold onto that instead of climbing back into his stuffed shirt? It was almost like he’d been afraid of enjoying himself. Or like he punished himself for having a good time by doing penance with more work. Penance. He’d said the word himself. What was that all about?

A sound behind her made her turn. Giorgio padded barefoot across the deck. His white shirt with the sleeves rolled back glowed in the dark, and his soft chinos molded his lean hips as he moved with sexy grace.

“There you are,” he said. “I thought you’d gone to sleep.”

“Couldn’t.” She shifted over to make room and patted the cushion. “The night is too beautiful to waste on sleep.”

He lay down beside her, crooking one arm behind his head, his leg pressed against hers from hip to calf. His warmth seeped into her, and she inhaled his spicy aftershave. Alone, she’d been lulled into a state of relaxation but now her body came tinglingly alive. He rolled toward her and slipped his hand inside the top of her blouse to caress her breast.

She put a hand on his chest and searched his dimly lit face and his dark eyes, glittering in the lights from the harbor. “What happened with Tina?”

He undid her top button. “I didn’t call her.”

Layla breathed out. “I think you’re wise.”

“I’m not so sure, but I’ll leave it for now.” He shifted down a little and put his arm around her, pulling her closer. Then he kissed her, and she was swallowed up in the heat and sensual promise of his mouth moving against hers.

She slid her hand up beneath his shirt to find warm skin and a steady heartbeat that quickened gratifyingly at her touch. A ferry motored past. The yacht rocked gently in its wake, pushing their hips together.
