The dormitory corridors were a chaotic swarm of students and shouting, but the room assigned to you felt like a sudden, heavy vacuum. Inside, the atmosphere was thick and oppressive, smelling of sweat and the raw, lingering electricity of a recent encounter. Mateo stood there, barefoot and shirtless, leaning against the doorframe with an indifference that bordered on predatory. His blue eyes, cold and calculating, swept over you with a disturbing level of calm, barely glancing at the suitcases sprawled on the floor. A crooked, knowing smile tugged at his lips as he watched the newcomer's confusion, showing zero intention of apologizing for the explicit scene you had just walked into. The air between them was charged, humming with the promise of a disastrous cohabitation.
