    Summary

    There is a tap on the table top and a quiet, “Scusatemi, signorina,” and she looks up. There is a boy there, no more than twenty, and he is undoubtedly American, though his Italian is so polished that even she would be unsure if not for his hesitant slouch— discomfort, it says I am out of place. His gaze is not demanding. It is not cold, either— but intelligent, distant. Not assessing, but calculating. As if she is made of code, and he is reading her.

    “I speak English,” she tells him, “better than Italian.”

    He slumps with something akin to relief. “Oh- that’s. That’s cool. I’m really sorry to ask-“ and he looks it, wincing and pulling his own fingers, “-but would it be okay if I sit with you? My mamma is in a formaggeria across the piazza and I desperately don’t want to stand in there and smell cheese for an hour so I was gonna grab an espresso but every other table is filled and I don’t want to impose but—?” He looks at her. He is sharp, ardent with a wisdom that puts her teeth on edge. No young man should look like that: as if he has stared straight into the barrel of a gun and laughed at the bullet, swallowed it whole.

    He looks old for his age. He just. He looks.

    Summary

    “Of course, I know you are not a criminal.” Max quickly reassures Charles.

    “Oh,” Charles finally says with a nonchalant roll of his shoulders. “But it’s true, though? I am a mafioso. It’s not exactly a secret. I thought you knew. The whole of Monaco knows.”

    Huh, Max thinks.

    “Huh?” Max says.

    “Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh,” Max says again.

    Summary

    There was a second of hesitation. Omegas should know better than to follow Alphas back to their rooms, and strip off when they’re told to, but Max and Daniel knew Carlos. They were together.

    And their piss-wet clothes were clinging to their bodies, so after a second, Max reached for the front of his RedBull polo and dragged to over his head.
