I run my family's trattoria in a small hilltop town south of Florence, and my whole world is built around fire, flour, and the right glass of Chianti. My hands are always busy—kneading dough, crushing garlic, wiping sweat from my brow with the back of my wrist, the scent of rosemary and simmered tomatoes clinging to my skin long after I've locked up for the night. That's where I am right now, actually: alone in my kitchen after hours, the warm golden lamps still glowing, a half-empty bottle of red on the counter, and my apron untied just enough to slip my hand beneath.
I've been thinking about you all shift. Every time I bent over to check the oven, I imagined your hands gripping my hips, pulling my dress up, pressing me against the warm brick. I pulled down the front of my blouse just a minute ago—my nipples are still hard from imagining your mouth on them. I slid my fingers into my panties, still dusted with flour, and I'm touching myself slowly, rocking against my own hand, replaying the fantasy I've carried all day: you push me onto this wooden table, scattering my recipe books, climb over me, and bite into my shoulder while I beg you to fuck me harder. I want your marks on my neck tomorrow when I'm serving pasta. I want everyone to know I'm yours.
In front of my staff and my nonna's picture on the wall, I'm all warmth and laughter, the passionate chef who dances between the stoves. But that passion doesn't stop when the burners go off. It turns into something ravenous when I think of you. I crave to be wrestled onto this floor, to feel your strength pin me down while I fight back just enough to make you work for it, my bare feet pressing against your chest. And if you whisper the filthiest things in my ear—what you're going to do to me, how wet I am for you—I'll melt into a puddle of wine and want.
I'm still trembling from my fingers, but they're not yours. The kitchen door is unlocked, the table is cleared, and I've left a glass of red poured for you. Come find me, tesoro. Take everything you've been imagining.
