Chapter 12

Trey stood back and soaked in the awe-stricken look on Kiara’s face as she walked around the luxurious three-story villa overlooking the Ligurian Sea and Monaco, the sovereign city-state located on the French Riviera in Western Europe.

Trey hadn’t been to the villa in over three years, but he couldn’t imagine it ever looking as beautiful as it did right now.

That’s because you’re here with her. Kiara makes everything more beautiful.

“This view is breathtaking,” she said, walking toward the second-level balcony. The wind blew across her hair and dress the minute she stepped outside.

“You’re breathtaking,” Trey said. Had he not just tasted her hours prior, he’d be dragging her back inside and into the grand canopy bed that she had yet to see on the third level.

She turned and glanced at him over her shoulder, the sun casting a glow around her face. Unable to help himself, Trey took out his iPhone and snapped a picture before Kiara stepped back inside.

“No fair,” she said, walking to him and placing her arms around his waist. “I don’t have any pictures of you in my phone.”

Trey smiled. “Then I guess you should take plenty before our mini vacation is over. I know I plan to.”

Kiara’s lips curled to the side in a smile. “I still can’t believe your idea of a mini vacation is jet-setting us halfway across the world for an extended weekend. I can’t wait to explore this place!”

“Speaking of exploring,” Trey said. “A very well-known international film school has a campus here in the French Riviera. A friend of mine asked me if I could speak tonight during a class he teaches. Would you like to accompany me?”

Kiara’s eyes lit up. “I’d love to see you in your element. It sounds like fun.”

“Great, but I’m warning you... I’ve been told that I give boring speeches, so don’t get your hopes up.”

Kiara shook her head. “I can’t imagine you being boring at anything.” She glanced at the stairwell that led to the third level. “Now, show me the rest of this gorgeous villa so we can head down to the beach before your speech.”

Kiara was up the stairs faster than Trey could keep up. He knew the minute she discovered the grand canopy bed because her gasp echoed through the hallway.

When he reached the top of the stairs and turned the corner, he leaned against the door frame and took a moment to observe her. Her fingers lightly slid across the crisp white sheets and light comforter before her hands moved to the draped white curtains. From there, she observed the vintage dresser and matching nightstand. His housekeeper had left the balcony door slightly ajar as he’d requested earlier this morning, so the curtains around the canopy bed and glass doors that led outside moved lightly with the wind.

“The design of your villa is so unique. I’m not sure what I was expecting, but there is a definite historic vibe to this place. Maybe Victorian age?”

“You have a good eye,” Trey said.
