Cam POV

'Pleasure to meet you sir' I smiled accepting the outstretched hand of Mr Dahl.

'Alexander's description of you doesn't do you justice dear' He smiled, I felt myself blush slightly. 'Please have a seat' I nodded and sat down where I was meant to.

'Thank you so much for inviting me' I smiled

'I'm terribly sorry that we have to meet after what had happened...Tell me a bit about yourself Miss St James'

'I'm currently studying fashion at an independent traditional shop, learning the methods that I may use to make my own clothes'

'How long have you been in Venice?'

'Almost 8 months, my sister, Charlotte, was living here anyway so it's nice to spend time with her' I smiled once more

'How long will you stay?' He asked

'Are these questions necessary over dinner?' Alexander asked

'I haven't decided yet' I said to defuse the tension. I glanced at Alexander 'I have a feeling that I'm going to be staying a lot longer than I planned'

'It's lovely to see Alexander finding a nice girl' The woman beside Mr Dahl said who I assume was his wife

'Indeed' Mr Dahl said studying me 'I apologise for…'

'I know you are very influential people Mr Dahl and I blame no one for what happened' I said sweetly

'Do you love her?' His father leant forward looking at his son, I felt myself shrink into the seat and become totally un-chameleony.

'Yes' Alexander said plainly

'Welcome to the family Tiffany' Mr Dahl said to me, giving a quick wink. I smiled nervously again.

'Mr Dahl' One of his bodyguards said 'Your guests are here'

'Send them in' He signaled. The bodyguard nodded and left.

'Father…' Alexander hissed

'Just a bit of light business' Mr Dahl dabbed his mouth on his napkin 'Tiffany can know some secrets now' He gave me a look that told me I'm allowed to know, but it means a price is on my head...a bigger one than before.

'Don't worry Tiffany' Alexander whispered in my ear, placing his hand on my thigh 'We'll leave after the meal'

'Sounds like a plan' I chuckled back. Alexander gave me a small kiss on the base of my neck.

'Cam…' I heard the short muffled voice of Charlotte 'You need to get out of there…' I felt a slight panic run through me, but it was too late. The guests had arrived. I stood up to meet whoever was there. When I turned I was immediately drawn to a pair of green eyes.

Zach POV

'Mr Dahl will see you now' A tall, broad guard announced after leaving for a moment. I nodded at Grant who was going to wait by the door, covering the exit in case anything happened. Bex looped her arm through mine and leant her head against my shoulder. Our cover was pretty sound, we knew why we were there and we knew who we were as well. We were taken into a secluded room at the back of the restaurant, the guard opened the door. Mr Dahl and his wife were facing us, there were two other people seated, that must be Alexander but I couldn't think of who the girl was. She wasn't in our research. Mr Dahl stood up and the others soon followed. The girl accompanying Alexander turned slowly, everything then seemed to happen in slow motion.

Cam.

She was here. She was next to Alexander. Her eyes widened momentarily as she stared at me. I saw her take a deep breath.

'It's a pleasure to finally meet you Mr and Mrs Dawson' Mr Dahl said 'Please join us' He gestured to the empty seats; one opposite Cam, one beside Cam at the head of the table. Bex sat opposite Cam while I sat at the head, so I could stare at Mr Dahl.

'Thank you for inviting us on such short notice' I said

'No problem. Allow me to introduce my family. This is my wife Melissa, my son Alexander and his girlfriend Tiffany' Cam avoided eye contact but smiled in my direction quickly.

'Pleasure to meet you all. This is my wife Rebecca. And please, call me Zach, my father was Mr Dawson' I flashed my winning smile at them all

'Shall we discuss business over dinner?'

.

'I'm afraid I'm no longer in the art business Zach. My tastes have...somewhat changed'

'Do you still have cargo ships for transportation?'

'We do. How many Alexander?' Mr Dahl turned to his son

'450' He answered without skipping a beat

'Impressive' I said, I truly was.

'When you've run an empire as long as I have, you do create an empire'

'Do you know the best routes?' I asked

'Of course' Mr Dahl answered plainly

'I've experienced some trouble with the European routes myself. Too many borders'

'Ah, I see the problem you're having' He leant back in his chair as he cleared his plate. I glanced to my side to see that Cam had hardly touched her food. Next to her Alexander looked at her cautiously. He leant in and whispered something into her ear. Cam nodded and smiled.

'I'm terribly sorry, but would it be possible to excuse myself and Tiffany, we have plans early tomorrow and we don't want to be tired'

'Oh! Are you meeting with Seb?' His father asked

'We're planning on seeing him later on' Cam spoke for the first time

'The kids absolutely adore Tiffany' Alexander gave Cam a light kiss and looked at her lovingly.

'Send regards to him and his wife for us' Melissa smiled getting up to give Cam a kiss on the cheek and to hug her son. 'Perhaps we can meet in different circumstances' She said glancing at her husband. I get the impression that she didn't expect the meeting to happen.

'It was lovely to meet you all' Cam turned to us and gave the smallest nod. Alexander placed his hand on her back. His skin on her skin. It made me angry so I decided to look at Bex. But Bex was studying Cam's figure carefully as if mapping her out in her head...what has changed, what is still the same.

'Perhaps we will see each other again?' Bex said speaking up again.

'That would be lovely' Cam said, she didn't have a smile on her face. Then they left.

Cam POV

Holy shit. Holy shit. Holy shit. Holy shit. I look a long sigh of breath as we made it through the restaurant. I glanced to my right and saw Grant gaping at me with an open mouth as if seeing a ghost. I probably was one. 8 months I've been under cover. 8 months of lying. When we stepped out into the cold I wrapped my arms around me.

'Here you go' Alexander wrapped his suit jacket around my shoulders

'I'm still not used to Venician weather' I chuckled.

'You aren't exactly dressed for it' He chuckled with me still holding onto my sides.

'You told me to wear this' I hit him playfully

'And you look amazing in it' His playful tone didn't suit his lustful eyes. They flickered down to my lips. I gave a small smirk

'This dress is extremely cold' I whispered feeling the air circulate around us

'Perhaps I can warm you up' He muttered as he leant down and kissed me. I melted into this kiss as much as I could. I couldn't lose myself considering that my sort-of-kind-of-don't-know-where-I-stand-Zach was in the other room and that Grant was watching subtly from the window. When we pulled away the limo that brought us here pulled up.

'Let's go back to my place' He smiled pulling me towards the door

'I have to head back home tonight. Charlotte wants to spend the evening together'

'That still gives you 2 hours of being mine' He pulled me into the darkness of the limo 'A lot can happen in two hours' His voice was husky and extremely sexy. I snuggled into his arm as we drove away into the night.

Author's note: So Cam and Zach have now seen each other! I couldn't not use Tiffany St James as her cover, everyone remember where that was from? Which book? So what will happen when they actually meet once again. Daily uploads continue, and here's a sneak peek:

'You promised that you'd stay out of trouble'

'I'm sorry' She said

'You lied again'

'Don't have a go at her' Charlotte said stepping forward 'We were following instructions that we were given, it's not our fault that someone's trying to ki-'

'Charlotte' Cam snapped

'What?' I asked stepping forward. Cam and Charlotte shared a look.
