It was a summer night.
The kind of night that made everything feel electric, like the air was charged with something more, something exciting.
I had been out with friends, laughing, drinking, feeling alive.
We'd gone to one of those rooftop bars, the kind with twinkling lights strung across the patio, casting a warm glow over the crowd.
Music thumped in the background, and I remember thinking how perfect everything felt.
That was when I saw him.
Vito.
He stood near the edge of the bar, his tall, broad frame outlined against the night sky.
There was something about him that immediately drew me in, something magnetic.
He wasn't like the other men there.
He wasn't trying too hard, wasn't loud or desperate for attention.
He just stood there, watching.
Observing.
And when our eyes met, I felt a jolt run through me, like a spark igniting something deep inside.
He was gorgeous, that much was undeniable.
Dark hair, slightly tousled, and those eyes—God, those eyes.
Deep, intense, like they could see straight through me.
I had felt something stir in my chest, something dangerous and thrilling all at once.
I played it cool, or at least I tried to.
