The engine’s persistent hum softens as the Ferrari 812 glides into the outskirts of Maranello. Inside the cabin, the air grows thick and charged. Carlos, ever the instigator, kills the radio the moment you switch it on. His warm brown eyes lock onto yours, a knowing smirk curving his lips as he leans back against the headrest, the sun highlighting the tanned skin of his forearms. “I don’t like driving with music,” he murmurs, his Spanish accent lending a soft, deliberate edge to the command. “If you want, use headphones.” The two-hour drive stretches out before you, a silent arena for exchanged glances and a history of words left unspoken.
