in a moment he was next to me and after a quick kiss he noticed the bags

"did you buy anything interesting?" he asked me

"mm. depends on the point of view" I answered him just in time to see the waiter appear

"what can I get you?"

"just a coffee for me!" I tell him

"a tuna sandwich and a salad" he replies, then when the waiter asks me "did you have something with your friends?"

"Just an appetizer" I look around, but Lilly?

She said she'd be right back ...

It was not like her.

"Eat, I'm going to make a call." I see him looking at me suspiciously, but he says nothing.

So I go out and call Lilly, who answers immediately.

"Lilly what's going on?" I ask worriedly

"No, nothing, don't worry, I was just calling you.

"Did something happen?"

"no I was going to call Giovanni to have lunch together when the teacher called me that Tommaso wasn't feeling well so I took him to the doctor that's all!" she says hastily.

"but is he ok? I ask him

"he has a little stomach ache, he probably ate a few too many sweets, you know how greedy he is" she said tenderly.

"alright I'll call you later"

"ok

When I came back, he had already finished and, half joking, half serious, he said to me

"you've neglected me all day today, tomorrow leave the phone at home".

"alright boss!" then I look at the time on his watch "break's over ... we have to go back to work" I tell him.

"but I wasn't the boss!"

"yes, but I am the boss of my boss, so get up!"

"That's a new one, but I like it" he says smiling seductively.

so we go back to work

even though I don't do much I was all upside down thinking about what had happened when my friends were there.

and yet it was strange

to be tormented by a stranger...

We had only said a few words to each other ...

Trying to cancel these thoughts I look at the time.

Soon we would have gone home and I shouldn't have made Antonio understand my secret torment.

So after making sure he was alone I opened the door and without being seen I approached him and looked at the pc ... the usual counting ....

before closing his eyes with my hands

"who am I?"

"my love" he says taking my hands away and kissing my palms that gesture is enough to make me feel a twinge in my stomach

slightly moving the chair he passes a hand under my knees and makes me sit on his legs

"Do you want to go home?" she asks

"No, I wanted to spend some time with you, we haven't seen each other all day."

"I have to finish here, wait ten minutes?"

"No, not even a minute."

"Should I take them home?" he asked again.

"I guess so" I say, wrapping my arms around his neck and kissing him.

but a moment later the phone rings

"yes!" he answered coldly as always

"Mr. Stevens is here to see you".

"OK, send him in," she answered.

"I'll wait for you in there!" I tell him, leaving quickly under his astonished gaze.

I didn't want him to see

I didn't want him to understand

the attraction I felt for him.

I would have done anything to repress it and make him not notice anything .

"Mother" I hear myself calling and I turn around and see my children.

"How long have you been here?" I ask surprised.

"we've just arrived"

"OK, be good, now we're going home as soon as Daddy finishes".

I wait another ten minutes then I put the children's jackets on, put mine on and go to call him, I knock.

"Come in!" I hear him say

I go in, I look first at my husband and then at the co-worker and my blood runs cold ...

why was he looking at me like that?

in those gray eyes there was a strange mixture of love hate resentment and ...

sadness?

My friends were definitely right I had gone mad there was no other explanation ...

I try to focus on my husband when I hear Silvia's voice saying "hello you work here?"

I look at the girl and then at Adam

"do you know him?" I ask maybe a bit harshly to the child

"yes we met one day when I was at school".

"were you at school or did you run away as usual and wander around the studio" I was pissed off and spoke maybe a little too harshly to the little girl who immediately with trembling lips says

"no mummy I..." and burst into tears

"No, she had just arrived at the reception desk and we bumped into each other, didn't we, Silvia?" Adam told me, addressing the girl tenderly.

but what was going on?

"Yes, it's true!" she confirmed.

"Which teacher were you with?" I ask, not calculating the man in front of me who was looking at me shamelessly and making me uncomfortable.

"I won't tell you, I won't tell on you!" she replies sullenly.

Trying to compose myself, I looked at my husband who had got up in the meantime.

"Are you finished so we can go home?"

"Yes, Mr. Stevens, we'll catch up later in the week."

"All right, if there's something urgent, I'll send you an email."

He said, but as he spoke, he looked at me and Enrico in a strange way.

Of course people are strange, I said to myself as we went downstairs.

Once home I jumped straight into the shower and even though I liked it hot and very hot that evening I took a cold one.

I needed to calm down a little .

I was putting almond oil on my legs when he arrived.

"I'll do it," she said, taking the bottle from my hands.

"But we'll be late for dinner.

"Not if you're a good girl, of course not! "

Be good?

Naked .

With her hands all full of oil on me?

I already felt hot and my head was spinning just thinking about it.

And yet I said

"I'm always good, you rather not take advantage of the situation!"

"I would never do that" she said in a tone that said the opposite I lay on my stomach on the bed

on that giant, round bed we had changed for the wedding, closing my eyes I still remembered when we had come back from our honeymoon

FLASHBAK BEGINNING

we were back from our honeymoon and I was feeling low, we had just left Lilly's house where I had been able to confess that a few days before I had almost slept with Roberto, luckily I had stopped in time.

Now I looked at Antonio who was thoughtful and wondered if he hadn't heard my confession, but I wasn't sure, I was expecting a reaction, something stronger, instead of standing there looking at me, so I approached him.

"are you still annoyed that we came back early?" i ask him putting my hands under his shirt

"no rather I was looking at something"

"what?" I asked him with my heart in my throat

"you're taking too long to get undressed I'll have to do it myself" he said taking off my shirt and laying me on the bed actually I didn't want to but I gave in to his caresses"

END FLASBAK

"that's it now turn around!" I hear him say

I was fucking lost in my memories

"But there's no need!"

"yes I will spread it on every inch of this beautiful body" he replies

"Every?" I comment raising an eyebrow.

"yes both inside and outside"

she said looking at me fiercely

I spread my legs a little wider, guessing what she had in mind, and concentrated on her hands.

that start from the feet, caressing each toe and then go up to the ankle

to the calf

to the knee

to the thigh

where they linger

I can see his chest lowering and raising quickly and I'm sure mine was doing the same

we were both aroused

I lift my eyes to his and get trapped by his so warm and sensual that I could look at nothing else

nothing else but those brown eyes

when I felt for a moment I was out of breath

He had his finger inside me and was running it back and forth I try to stop myself from moaning and biting my lip but I can't so I lift just enough to draw him to me and kiss him so intensely that I swallow my moans

God how good he was at it
