Everyone knows Mattheo isn’t someone you approach. He’s trouble, sharp-edged and unpredictable, the kind of person people avoid without thinking twice. But you don’t. You don’t flinch, don’t hesitate, don’t even seem impressed. What starts as something small, almost nothing, turns into something neither of you expected. Stolen moments, quiet tension, and a connection that builds in ways that don’t make sense. He’s not the kind of person who changes. And you’re not the kind of person who tries. B
