After a short flight to Sithonia, the helicopter landed at the back of the Angelis villa in the middle of the night. Alex had traveled to the Halkidiki Peninsula on several occasions and loved the scenery. This isolated spot overlooking the sea couldn’t have provided a more perfect place for him to stay out of the public eye.

He’d found a powerful ally in Gianinna’s protective brother, who’d insisted she come with them. Though the man had every right to feel hostile toward Alex over his lie of omission to Giannina, he’d encouraged her to go to Mount Athos with Alex to witness Hatzi’s downfall. Now he’d offered him his home for an indefinite period.

Nothing could have made Alex happier. He needed time to try to win her over and Nico Angelis was the only person who could help make that happen.

Giannina had sat in the back with him during the flight, but she hadn’t participated in the conversation with him and Nico. Once they touched ground, Nico helped her out while Alex reached for their bags. He followed them down the path to the stunning white villa located in the greenery. Starlight illuminated it.

In the living room Nico introduced him to Thanos and Anna, the trusted older married couple who looked after the place. “Alex? These two will help you with whatever you want or need. Now I’m afraid I have to get back to home.”

“You’re leaving?” Giannina cried. Alex heard the anxiety in her voice.

“I promised Alexa I wouldn’t stay. Nico has been fussy.” He kissed her cheek. “Call me if there’s anything else I can do. Alex? If an emergency should arise and you have to get to Hellenia, the helicopter will be at your disposal.”

“I’m indebted to you, Nico. In return it will be my privilege to give Giannina my story to be announced in your family’s newspaper. I can tell you with absolute authority she’s the only person in this world I would trust with the truth.”

Nico nodded. “She will never publish a greater story or set of headlines in this century.”

The two men smiled at each other before Alex saw her catch hold of her brother’s arm. “I’ll walk you out.”

When they had disappeared, the older woman said, “If you’ll follow me, kyrie, I’ll show you to your room and fix you a meal.”

“That’s very kind, but I ate earlier.” He picked up his suitcase and they walked down a hallway into a guest bedroom that would have a glorious view of the sea by morning.

“The en suite bathroom has all the toiletries you will need. There’s a robe hanging on the door. I made coffee in case you and Giannina want it.”

“Efcharisto, Anna.”

“Parakalo, kyrie. Kalinikta.”

As soon as she disappeared, he took a shower and shaved. This was heaven to be here alone with Giannina. But he still had to convince her of his love and gain her trust.

He put on a fresh shirt and pants, then walked down the hall past the living room to the kitchen.
