with sweat and lust. When he couldn’t take it anymore, he rolled her to her back, taking her fast and hard, seeing untamed passion in her eyes, as she moved with him in the rhythm of raw desire.
    Afterward, he rested his head on her chest, waiting for sanity to return and his ears to stop ringing. When he recovered his breath enough to speak, he asked, “Weren’t you supposed to be at work? It’s Monday and nearly ten a.m.”
    “Nah.” She sighed and stretched languorously, looking sexy and satisfied. “I pretty much make my own schedule.”
    “Really? That’s good.”
    “Yeah, well…I suppose doing what you like, when you like it is the best thing every person can hope for, career-wise.”
    She stroked his short hair, then yawned and said, “Do you mind if I go take a shower?”
    “Go right ahead. Do you mind if I join you?”
    She smiled up at him, trying without any success to flip him off her.
    “Of course not. It’s gonna be awfully crowded in there though. I have a tiny shower.”
    He smiled wickedly and kissed her lips, then rolled to one side.
    “No problem. Go and get started. I’ll find my way to your bathroom in just a few minutes,” he told her, lying on his stomach, feeling sleepy and satiated as a feline.
    He must have fallen asleep, because the next thing he knew, Sonia was bending over him, gently caressing his hair and whispering in his ear, “Giovanni, darling, wake up.”
    He opened one eye. She was standing over him, dressed in jeans and a pink sweater.
    “Why are you dressed?” he mumbled. “What time is it?”
    “It’s nearly lunchtime. I don’t have anything to eat, so I’m going out to buy something. Go into the bedroom and sleep some more.”
    He turned onto his back, rubbing his face in an attempt to shake off the pleasant fatigue of a fantastic night of sex.
    “No, I’m…I’m going to take a shower. Why don’t you wait for me and we’ll go out together?”
    “It’s okay. Go and shower, take your time. I’m starving, so I’ll go now to get something to eat. I won’t be long. Make yourself at home.”
    She bent to kiss him and he drew her down into his arms, kissing her passionately until she giggled breathlessly.
    “Whoa! What are you, Don Juan de Marco? What kind of vitamins do you take?”
    He laughed, burying his face in her hair.
    “Turns out I don’t need any vitamins. I only need you. You’re like a drug to me, Sonia,” he told her seriously, studying her face. She wasn’t wearing any makeup, but she still looked incredibly beautiful. Her skin was flushed; her pink lips were rosy and swollen. She had long eyelashes, dark and naturally curly, framing those spectacular dark chocolate eyes, whose round shape gave her such an innocent look at times. He traced her lower lip with his finger.
    “Don’t be long, okay?”
    “Okay.”
    She kissed him quickly, and then rose.
    “Dress warm, for Heaven’s sake!” he shouted after her. He heard her rummage through what he assumed was her closet. When she appeared, she was wearing a thick red impermeable coat, which reached her knees and had a hood hemmed with fur. She looked like a sexy Eskimo.
    “This is the thickest coat I own,” she said grumpily. “Happy now?”
    “Yes. That’s much better, and you look spectacular.”
    “Yeah, right.” She sniggered, grabbing her handbag and keys. She was still muttering something under her breath when she closed the door behind her.
    Giovanni sat looking sightlessly at the door for a moment, with what he imagined was a silly grin on his face. The woman could make him smile.
    He got up and, buck naked, went in search of the bathroom, which wasn’t hard to find in the small flat. It was located at the end of the hall, next to Sonia’s bedroom. He opened the bedroom door and took a peek inside.
    The room was nice, prettily furnished in dark orange and copper, with a massive bed, a single nightstand, a dresser, and some other stuff. The opposite wall sported a huge
