Chapter 91 Loukoumades

• Eleni
• I blink awake in the morning with my mouth watering. Cold sheets. No Dante.
• I check my phone and find the usual text. At Piacere today, had to leave early, news when he gets home. I drop my phone with a groan. My stomach grumbles. I think I spent all night dreaming about loukoumades, these honey puffs Mama used to make for my birthday, or whenever she was in a really good mood. The air even smells like them, as if I brought the memory from my dreams into reality.
