She reached out for it. "Please put it on me."
"Tomorrow." He reached over her and hung it on the bedpost behind her. "Tonight I want nothing but the feel of you."
He settled back down beside her. They lay in silence as she lightly traced his chest with her fingers, listening as his breathing became slow and regular and she was certain he was asleep.
A tiny shaft of moonlight filtered in through a crack in the curtain. As she followed it with her eye she caught a glint of gold. I'm an American woman now. Even you can't tell me what I can do, Tonio.
She reached up and pulled her necklace down from the bedpost and over her head until it lay softly between her naked breasts. Then she lay back down beside him and drifted off to sleep with one arm curled over him and a lock of his hair wrapped around her finger.
