Chapter Fifty-Five

A few days after Isabella was born, Emma brought in pictures of the baby to show the girls at Doubles. When Salvatore saw the pictures, he smiled fondly and said, “Izzy—that’s what I’ll call her. I love that name. She’s beautiful, Amme.” Then he teased, “Are you sure she isn’t your kid?”

“Izzy…” Emma said, feeling the name on her lips. “I love that, Salvatore. She’s such a gorgeous baby. Everyone says she looks like me, but I just don’t see it.”

Emma was still blind to the impact her good looks had on others.

“That’s because you don’t always see what others see,” Salvatore told her. “Your view of things isn’t always the right one, you know.”

Uneasy with where their conversation was heading, Emma asked light-heartedly, “So do you want to give me therapy or do you want a lap dance?”

Salvatore lightened up immediately. “Well,” he drawled, “I was thinking I could give you therapy while you were dancing for me.”

They both laughed and made their way to the lap-dance room.

Salvatore was more captivated by Emma now than he had been the first night he’d met her at Doubles. If anything, she seemed to become more charming with time, both in appearance and in personality. It was during such moments that he wanted to take her in his arms and make passionate love to her, to reassure her of her worth. But he knew that if he so much as hinted at his feelings for her, she would conclude that sex was all he had ever wanted from her. Salvatore knew that where Emma was concerned, he wanted much, much more.
