Eve chuckled. "To us, Enzo. May we always be this happy and corny."

As they sipped their wine, Enzo reached under the table and pulled out a small, exquisitely wrapped gift box. He slid it across the table toward Eve.

"Enzo, you didn't have to get me anything," she protested softly, but her eyes lit up with excitement as she carefully unwrapped the delicate paper.

Inside, she found two velvet boxes, each containing an elegant friendship necklace. Her fingers traced the intricate design, and she looked up at Enzo with an expression of awe.

"Is this what I think it is?" she whispered, tracing her hand over the word sisterhood.

"One is for you," he explained, voice tender and sincere. "And the other is for Sienna. I want you to give it to her when we find her. I promise you, Eve, I will do everything in my power to reunite you with your best friend."

Tears welled in Eve's eyes, and seeing them made his own eyes grow misty. Eve opened her mouth and then closed it. She opened it again, then closed it once more. It was clear that she couldn't find the words to express her gratitude, so instead, she stood up and walked around the table.

"Thank you, Enzo," she whispered, her voice thick with emotion as she settled herself into his lap.

Enzo scooted his chair away from the table so she could be more comfortable. Every inch of her body pressed against his, igniting a fire within him that he fought to control. And he had to control it because this was a sweet moment. He didn't want to mess it up by turning it into something sexual.

"Why are you so good to me?" she whispered, a tear trailing down her cheek.

Enzo wiped it away. "Because you deserve it, love," he told her. "And because I love you."

"I love you too, Enzo," she whispered before grabbing his tie and pulling him in for a searing kiss.

Enzo's arms wrapped around her, holding her close as his tongue danced with hers. The heat between them grew, their bodies yearning for each other as Enzo's arousal became almost unbearable.

"Eve," he growled, pulling away from the kiss.

"Shhh, just kiss me," she whispered and tried to pull him close again.

He leaned back. "I can'tjust kissyou right now, love. I need to fuck you. And if you don't want to be fucked on this table right here, right now, then we need to leave."

Eve's eyes danced with mischief and lust, her lips curling into a sultry smile. "Let's go home then, don Enzo. Take me home and fuck me all night long."

A shiver ran down his spine at her words, and without wasting another second, he lifted her off his lap and rose from the chair. His hand clasped hers tightly, leading her out of the restaurant, their steps quickening towards the exit.

"Bill me," he muttered to the nearest staff member before they disappeared out the door. The crisp night air did little to cool the fire that roared within them as they hurried toward the car. His gaze darted left then right, making sure his men were nowhere in sight.

When they reached his sleek black vehicle, Enzo opened the door for Eve. Before she could climb into the car, he slapped her on her ass and watched it jiggle. He was obsessed with watching her ass shake. Damn it, he needed to fuck her right now.

She looked over her shoulder at him, arched her back, and whispered, "Harder."

This little motherfucker!He slapped her ass again, causing her to moan. He watched that ass jiggle. It moved just like that when he was fucking her from behind. Damn it! He needed to be buried balls deep in her right now.

"You've got me so wet," she whispered. "My sheer thong is soaked."

His cock throbbed, wishing it was the one soaked in her juices.

"Get in the car, Eve, before I fuck you right here."

Then he'd have to kill his own men because he couldn't let them live after having seen his angel naked. Smiling, she blew him a kiss, then blew a kiss towards his dick before climbing into the car.

This woman was going to drive him insane. But he'd enjoy the hell out of the journey. He closed the door before walking around the car and sliding into the driver's seat. His thoughts raced, images of him fucking her hard and long fueling his urgency to get them home.

"Enzo," Eve whispered, leaning close until her breasts touched the side of his arm as he started the engine. "I can't wait much longer. Hurry."

"I'm hurrying, baby," he assured her, his grip tightening on the wheel.

She placed her hand on his thigh, and his entire body jerked.Damn it.Should he pull over and fuck her in the car? No, that wouldn't be romantic. And he had to make this day perfect for her, every minute of it. Enzo inhaled deeply.Be romantic, Enzo.Be romantic. Her fingers trailed up and down his thigh.
