"Condition?!" Emily was perplexed. She knew nothing in this world came for free, but the thought of what Matteo Vinci might want terrified her.

His connections were powerful. He was best friends with Alessandro Valentino, one of the most dangerous. men around, and he worked for him too. Although Emily didn't know Alessandro's true identity, she had her suspicions. Men like him didn't just kill without consequences unless they had serious power-either the police or the mafia.

She nervously licked her lips, her heart pounding so loudly. "What do you want, Mr. Vinci?" she asked, trying to steady her voice.

Matteo's smile softened as he looked at her, his eyes lingering.

"A date with you," he whispered seductively, making Emily wonder if she was hearing things.

"What did you just say?" she asked in disbelief.

"I said I want you to go on a date with me. Time and place-your choice," Matteo rephrased his proposition.

"A date?" she repeated, still in disbelief.

""Yes," Matteo confirmed.

"That's... all?" she asked, furrowing skeptically.

Otherwise, she had tried countless times before. With the money and power her ex-husband wielded, he had either forced her attorneys to drop the case or had them killed. She didn't want to reveal this to Matteo just yet. What if he got scared and abandoned her case too? Still, a date with the notorious playboy attorney didn't seem like a bad idea. She could do this, at least for her late parents. They deserved peace, and she wouldn't rest until their murderer was

Matteo scanned his apartment key card for elevator access, and the doors slid open. With a gentle hand on the small of her back, he ushered her inside before stepping in himself. He then

In the confined space of the elevator, the manly scent of the gorgeous man- tinged with a hint of spice and wood-overwhelmed her senses. She felt breathless just from being near this dangerously charming man. His intense gaze alone was enough to affect her, making her cheeks flush with heat.
