His hand was splayed on Luca’s thigh, his thumb maddeningly close to where it might do some good. “I wasn’t looking,” he said simply. Greedy: “I made you look at me.” “I could have been halfway down the aisle, and I would have looked at you,” Matti said. “I could have been halfway across the world.”
