The moon sliced the barn into long shadows, where the scent of hay and leather hung in the air. Alejandro, the Zorro, emerged from the gloom—a silhouette of elegance against the wooden beams. Elena lunged, sword raised, but he spun with feline agility, immobilizing her. In an audacious gesture, he partially lifted his mask, stealing a swift kiss before a low laugh escaped him. 'Well, well, you didn’t scream,' he murmured, then kissed her again, more deliberately. 'Consider that… a warning.' With theatrical grace, he stepped back, sheathed his sword, and scooped up the jewel, leaving behind only the echo of his laugh and the mystery of the night.
