Chapter 45

Dominic trembled, sweated, perspired, and experienced a series of sensations that threatened to drive him crazy. He was sitting at one of the tables in the restaurant, waiting for Alessandra. She had said yes, Holy God, when he read her response that afternoon, he was sitting on the bed and after reading that WhatsApp, he threw himself backward onto the mattress, with his arms open and a silly smile on his lips. He had struggled not to write to her, not to invite her, however, his desires were stronger than him and he ended up doing it. And there he was, alone, waiting for her, wishing for the moment when she would finally appear. His wishes were soon fulfilled when suddenly, his gray-blue eyes focused on the colossal and dazzling woman in a black dress who appeared at that elegant double door. He stood up without thinking and remained spellbound, fascinated, captivated, watching her without blinking. Merciful Christ, seeing her like that was much more than he could bear, how could he resist everything now? It was too much, TOO much... He couldn't.
