Sophia came to and blinked, focusing on the red canopy above the bed. Canopy?

She sat up, her hands twisting in the bedcovers. Where in God’s name was she? And why the hell was she naked?

She yanked the cover up over her body, the silky satin sliding against her skin. A knot lodged in her throat. She’d been at the museum, poring over some old manuscripts on the legends of the Warriors of the Wind. She’d heard a noise and then…nothing but a big void.

Shifting, the satin cool and slippery beneath her, she scanned the room.

And saw the man.

The naked man.

Oh, my God. He was chained to the wall and powerfully built, with hard muscles on a lean frame. Wide shoulders narrowed down to trim hips and a six-pack stomach. Helpless to stop herself, her gaze drifted down. A long, thick cock arched upward. She jerked her gaze up and froze.

Familiar deep-green eyes watched her. Her boss. Antonio Venti.

She gripped the covers harder. “Antonio?”

He licked his lips, like his mouth was dry. “Are you okay?”

His low, husky voice shivered through her. He had a face ripped from the walls of the museum he owned. A modern-day renaissance lord. A hawkish nose, full lips and green eyes that made her think of her favorite Verona green paint. The man was outrageously handsome and wealthy, and was one of Italy’s most eligible bachelors.

“Sophia? Did he hurt you?”

She blinked. “I don’t know what happened or how I got here, but I don’t think I’m hurt.” She had no aches or pains. “He? Who did this?”

Antonio scowled. “His name is Corus.” Antonio shifted and the clank of metal drew her attention to the chains.

God, he was chained like an animal. She slid her legs over the edge of the bed and stood, her knees dangerously wobbly. She made sure the cover was wrapped around her frame. “Corus?” She frowned. “That name sounds familiar.” It scraped at some distant memory.

“He’s my enemy.”

Antonio’s hard tone sent a rash of goosebumps over her skin. She moved toward him. “Why am I here?”

He drew in a deep breath. “I think you know why. Even if you refuse to acknowledge it.”

She jerked to a halt. Oh, she knew what he was talking about. But she’d come to Italy for a new beginning, for her career. Not to repeat her past mistakes.

A year ago, she’d lost everything. Her perfect life had shattered with terrible consequences. Even now her heart spasmed and she pressed a hand to her flat belly. After three months in Florence, she was finally starting to feel alive again.

She was excruciatingly aware of Antonio Venti and the charged attraction between them. But she couldn’t risk her heart again. It still wasn’t whole. And Antonio reminded her too much of James.

All she had, all she cared about, was her art. And her dream of finding out the truth about the Warriors of the Wind. “I came to Florence for a fresh start. That’s it.”

“I don’t know what you’re running from, Sophia, but you can’t have a fresh start if the past still haunts you.
