The way he said my name, it was like he was about to kiss me…

Or was murmuring it between my thighs right before he went down on me.

“Bye,” I said, somewhere between giddy and orgasmic.

He grinned at me one last time, then started for an exit at the other end of the kitchen.

I got a good look at his ass as he went –

Oh FUCK.

The most perfect ass that God ever made.

I was so hot and bothered, it was ridiculous.

Then I noticed Signora Lombardi glaring at me.

I quickly turned back to the stove to check on my saucepan.

But I felt something…

A tingle at the back of my neck.

I turned to look over my shoulder –

And caught Valentino checking outmyass as he was about to leave the room.

His eyes raised to mine. Rather than embarrassed at being caught, he seemed mischievously delighted – and gave me one last perfect smile and a wink before he left the room.

Saints help me, I was dripping wet.

Signora Lombardi cleared her throat in irritation, though, and I quickly went back to work.

Valentino

Fuuuuuck.

You ever have a moment when you knowyour entire life just changed?

Meeting Caterina for the first time was like that for me.

One minute I was walking down the hall, when I smelled something amazing in the kitchen and walked in to check it out.

The next, I was staring into the eyes of a seriously cute girl –

And something justclicked.

It felt like an invisible spark of static electricity – but all pleasure, no pain.

I didn’t know why I reacted that way, exactly.

She wasn’t the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen…

But there was just something about her that made mewanther.Badly.

Not to brag, but I get a lot of chicks. Between my looks and my family’s money, I kind of have my pick.
