And I’d done what I promised.

“Ciao, Bella,” I whispered in my mind.

Hello.

Goodbye.

Hello.

Goodbye.

I loved both words, because they meant I’d met her in both scenarios and had no regrets leaving.

I pulled away from her. “I’ll get the rest of the food ready.”

“No.” Bella grabbed my hand.

When I tried to pull away, she held on even tighter. “What? You aren’t hungry?”

She placed my hand on her naked hip. “Are you?”

For so many things. “Bella, why don’t we sit down for a bit?”

I had no qualms kissing her, pleasuring her, I would do everything to her—but the one thing I wanted the most, because in the end it felt selfish and wrong. Like the people who sleep together, then leave the next morning without a note. I couldn’t promise her everything was going to be okay, or that she wouldn’t be planning a funeral, so I couldn’t take something that was important to her.

She shook her head. “My choice, dumbass.”

“But shouldn’t—”

She kissed me into silence, then grabbed both of my hands and put them on her breasts like I didn’t know what to do, so plump, soft, I angled my head and kissed her deeper, pressing her up against the counter while she slid a hand into my briefs and tugged them down.

I cursed against her mouth, pulling free long enough to kick them away and devour her until I tasted all of her.

She kissed me the way she liked to fight me, with every ounce of energy she had, fighting for dominance while I picked her up and walked us back toward the bed.

I set her down on the blankets, refusing to break away from her mouth as she lay back and took me with her. Our hands tangled and our tongues matched like we wanted to be wrapped up in one another.

Heart pounding, I reached between us, swallowing her moan with my lips, keeping each sound with me like a stolen gift.

Panting, she pulled back from me, sliding her hand between us, batting mine away and gripping me, then guiding me to her entrance. “Ciao, Ivan.”

“Is this hello or goodbye?” I was afraid to ask.

“Hello.” A tear ran down her cheek. “Goodbye isn’t in that definition of ciao, I looked it up.”

“Did you now?”

“Yup, they updated it.”

“And you noticed that in that book you were reading upside down earlier, hmmm?”

“It may look old, but it has a lot of secrets.” She kissed me and held me so close that it was impossible not to move.

“Mmm…” I kissed down her jaw. “This is going to hurt at first.”

“I’m not worried.”

“Why?”
