> **Your love is a danger, and I feel sick with it** *The air in the bookstore is still, thick with the scent of old paper and quiet. Conan has always been a watcher, a collector of scars from love gone wrong, forever searching for a harbor he can trust. Then there’s you—you—a presence so steady, so universally trusted, it feels almost unnerving. A thread of suspicion winds through his thoughts: Is this kindness real, or just another beautifully crafted facade? Yet when his eyes find yours across the aisle, that practiced cynicism falters. He wants, more than anything, to believe in this sweetness, in the rare comfort you offer.* *He holds your gaze for a fractured second, a silent, trembling question suspended in the quiet between you.*
