My eyes adjust to the light, feeling an arm draped over me weighing on me as soft kisses are placed on my neck trailing down to my shoulders.

"Morning amour" Dante's raspy voice greets as he continues teasing me, my back a bit sore from the position he had me last night. We frequently have sex at least 3 times a week and not complaining. The past two months had been great, I continued my job at the firm and frequently visit family when Dante goes on business trips. Emilio and Lea finally together after dismissing the tension between them that has been piling up for a while now, speaking of Lea she is still my assistant mainly to keep an eye on me as Dante insists. It was the only way to convince him to let me back as well as adding a panic button underneath my desk.

"Bonjour comment s'est passée ta nuit ?" I ask him, embracing him more as I tug at his hair. I've been trying to learn French a bit more and Lea's been assisting me. Dante lowly chuckles, impressed by my knowledge. (Translation: morning, how was your night?)

"Incroyable avec toi à mes côtés, et toi?" He challenges, turning me over so that I'm now facing him, my brown eyes meeting his grey ones. (Translation: Amazing with you by my side, and you?)

"J'ai eu de meilleures nuits" my eyes narrow and before I know it, I'm on my back with him on top with an arm blow me (translation: I've had better nights)

"Est-ce que c'est comme ça?" He grabs my face careful enough not to hurt me

"Mhm"

"Oh yeah?" He smirks before connecting our lips, kissing me roughly as his free hand roams down my body.

"Dante" I groan between kisses before pushing him away for me to catch my breath.

"Stop it, I have to go get ready!" I squeal as he kisses my naked chest.

"I love this" he compliments my tattoo placed between my chest of my family's motto right before I push him off me completely.

"I know that, geez you only say that like twice a day at least?" I snort rolling off the bed as I make my way to the bathroom fully exposing my body.

He lays down on the bed, a muscular arm draped across his head as he watches me put my hair up with a claw clip.

"Your driver will pick you up today, I am going to be in meetings all day" He states as he reaches over to the side table to grab his phone. Another deal we had before I could go back to work was I get driven by my driver in the morning and that he picks me up after work unless he's busy.

I hum in response before stepping in the shower. It takes me about 30 minutes to get ready, mainly because my attire for today was already selected and I only put on minimal makeup. I step out the walk in closet to see Dante in the same spot I left him, standing between the bathroom and the bedroom with black sweats that hang dangerously low on his hips, his abs fully on display for me.

I head for him, my heels making noise with every step. Reaching up to plant a brief kiss on his lips to say goodbye

"Leaving now, I love you" I tell him but his brows slightly pull in confusion

"You are not staying to have breakfast together?" His hand catches my wrist.

"No, you wasted most of my time already, I have to appear in court today, I cannot be late" I confess, he rolls his eyes in response before lifting my hand in his hold to kiss it

"I love you, good luck"

I look up from my folder, listening to the argument made by the defence attorney to the judge and jury. Preparing for my last and most important witness to be brought on stand in order for me to win the case. The defence attorney goes ahead and sits down talking with her client, my queue to stand up and play my final move.
