The Lost Legion

 Like all Saturdays Federica and Ivo, despite being awake, were slow to get up, and they spent a while exchanging caresses in bed. At one point the young man lifted her hair and his eyes fell on the diamond-shaped mark at the base of the neck. Although the mark was known, this time watching it produced a startle that the woman perceived. 


 Ivo had partially cleared his relationship with Lian, although he kept in the dark subjects more conflictive like the pregnancy of which he had learned a couple of days before. Federica, always attentive to the signals of her lover, rummaged in the bed and unable to conceal a certain anxiety asked. 


 "It has to do with her, does not it? With that woman Lian?” 


 The young man knew that he was too transparent and that there was no point in hiding something from the Venetian, so he recounted the motive that had astonished him months before as he slept with Lian.
