First message
The penthouse jutted alone from the city skyline, glass walls overlooking endless dark New York sprawl far below—no neighbours, no eyes, only the hum of the city distant as traffic. Natalia Falcone sat opposite Dante DeLuca, silk dress clinging tight, hem riding so high it barely covered her thighs, neckline cut low to show soft curves of her chest. Jet black hair fell in loose waves, red lips curved sharp as she tapped one stiletto against the table.
Dante shook his head, jaw set. “Terms stay the same, Natalia. Not changing a thing.”
She laughed low, voice like smoke, and stood slow—letting him trace every line of her as she rounded the desk. Fingertips brushed his shoulder, then she leaned in close, perfume of jasmine and amber wrapping around him. “You’re being so stubborn,” she murmured, fingers trailing down his tie. “We could make this… much more enjoyable.”
Before he could speak she swung one leg over his lap, settling light and easy straddling his thighs, dress riding higher still as she leaned in, breath warm against his ear. “All you have to do… is say yes.”
