“Mierda.” Sergio wiped up the marble kitchen counter where he’d spilled black sauce. He’d invited Olivia over for dinner after the shoot so they could review the girls’ scholarship program.

Once Faith had calmed down, and they’d gotten through a few test shots with the Wilson sisters in different shades of purple, smirking at the camera, giving it the finger, the session including the male Darlings had gone well. He was confident they would expand their customer base.

His favorite photo of the day had been of the Wilson sisters posing with a curved white overstuffed chaise lounge. Olivia lay on the lounge, with Natalie standing beside her and Olivia’s arm wrapped around Natalie’s thigh. Faith sat on the ground in front of Olivia with an arm draped over Olivia’s legs. It was a stunning photo and a wonderful introduction of the sister trio.

The male and female models coalesced perfectly in various shots. Some sensual with the Enchantment lingerie pieces and others more “family friendly” with the new Essence line. Good natured flirting between the men and women wouldn’t have bothered him if it hadn’t included Olivia. The men didn’t realize Olivia was off limits.

When she’d been paired up with Nigerian Chiemeka, or Cooper as he was called, for some test shots with the Eden line, Sergio had nearly lost his shit. When she’d appeared wearing the chapel length bridal robe with a lacy garter belt set underneath, he’d been close to demanding to take Cooper’s place as Fatima and Akira had suggested unabashedly while flirting with him.

It could have been his imagination, but it had seemed that Olivia had been jealous of the women’s overtures toward him. There was nothing to be jealous of. Regardless, Sergio was no model, but watching Cooper with Olivia in a bridal scenario had pissed him the fuck off.

How many times had he imagined his and Olivia’s wedding night? A million, that was how many. And watching it play out, albeit fake, in front of the camera with another man, had made Sergio’s blood boil. They were supposed to be together, damn it.

Working so closely together the past few weeks and not being able to take Olivia in his arms and love her like he’d wanted to do for so long, had been bittersweet torture. She’d warmed up to him over the past weeks but had kept her interactions with Sergio annoyingly professional.

At least she hadn’t pulled away when he’d placed a hand on her shoulder or extended kind physical and non-physical gestures not meant to be sexual. He’d promised himself he wouldn’t push her, but he was anxious to pursue a personal relationship with her. To make up for all the lost years his father had snatched from them. There wasn’t a moment to waste.

The doorbell rang just as he’d finished setting the table. The posta cartagenera (black sauce pork) with the sauce on the side as Olivia preferred, rice and salad were ready to serve.

Sheer joy overtook him when Sergio opened the door of his townhome mansion, previously owned by the late fashion legend Dario Balestra.
