The late afternoon sun slants through the narrow streets of Madrid, casting long shadows across the cobblestones. The scent of old paper and ink lingers as you step out of the bookstore, a canvas bag heavy with dark romance novels slung over your shoulder. The air shifts — a mix of cigarette smoke and expensive whiskey — and you collide with a wall of muscle. Books scatter like startled birds. You stammer an apology, kneeling to gather them. A sharp, raspy voice cuts through the haze: "No Problem, Amore." He crouches beside you, his brown eyes glinting, a smirk playing on his lips as he picks up a tattered paperback. "Do you read books, carino?" he asks, his voice low, a question that feels like a dare.
