Chapter Nine
âWelcome to Le Palazzo di Mare. How can I help you?â
The front desk clerkâs eyes were glued to Zoeâs chest. Dante might as well have been a tree stump for all the attention he received. Not that he blamed the guy. Zoeâs rack was impressive in normal conditions. But with her sundress plastered to her skin courtesy of the downpour that had started two blocks from the hotel, it was spectacular, full and lush, the outline of her dusky nipples clearly visible through the damp fabric.
First Gianni, now some random desk clerk at their hotel. Was every man they met going to leer at her? And was this unreasonable, uncontrollable jealousy going to rise in him like a flash flood every time one did?
If it was, Dante was powerless to fight it. He snaked a possessive arm around Zoeâs shoulders, pulling her to his side. He might not blame the guy for looking, but that didnât mean he had to like it. Or stand by idly while some stranger ogled hisâ
His what? His tenant? His roommate? Hell, until a few days ago, theyâd been sworn enemies, playing a sick, twisted game of chicken to see who would back down first and leave Bella Vista.
But then heâd kissed her. And everything had changed.
The object of his desire let out a little squawk and looked up at him with wide, questioning eyes, but to his relief she didnât pull away. Emboldened, he drew her more tightly to him, her soft, round curves melding to his hard edges.
âWe have a reservation,â he growled at the clerk through gritted teeth. âSabbatini.â
âSignora Bianchiâs friend. Weâve been expecting you.â The clerk was paying attention to him now, all right, practically falling all over himself to make up for his earlier slight. It was nice to know people in high places. Like Francesca Bianchi, the part owner and general manager of one of Capriâs most exclusive five-star hotels.
The clerk punched a few keys on his computer and slid an envelope with two plastic cards tucked inside across the counter. âHere you are, sir. One of our best rooms. A sea view suite. Signora Bianchi insisted. She sends her regrets, but she was called away to deal with a situation in the kitchen.â
Zoeâs eyes went from wide and questioning to narrowed and suspicious. âI thought the hotel was full.â
âIt is,â the clerk assured her. âSignora Bianchi did some shuffling to make sure you were well taken care of.â
âWe need dry clothes,â Dante snapped, not ready to forgive the poor sap for lusting after Zoe.
âYouâll find two Turkish cotton bathrobes in your en suite bathroom. Iâll have housekeeping come up for your wet clothes. Theyâll be laundered and returned to you as soon as possible.â
âThank you.â Dante snatched the envelope with their keycards off the counter and steered Zoe to the elevators.
âWhat was that all about?â she asked, ducking out from under his embrace as the elevator doors slid shut, leaving them alone in the car.
He pushed the button for the top floor.
