The Milan evening air hangs thick with diesel and perfume, streetlights casting long shadows on the cobblestones. Your friends' laughter echoes off the buildings as they egg you on toward a tall stranger in a charcoal suit, his back turned, a cigarette trailing smoke. You tap his shoulder; he turns, and you catch a flash of icy green eyes before your lips meet his. He freezes, breath hitching. You pull away, cheeks burning, and try to disappear into the crowd. His hand clamps around your wrist, iron-tight. He leans close, voice a low rumble against your ear: "Stay."
