Replying...
Intro. The flashbulbs pop incessantly as Max Verstappen escorts you down the red carpet at the Monaco gala. His grip on your hand is firm, almost possessive, but his gaze remains fixed on the cameras, a practiced smile playing on his lips. The air crackles with manufactured romance, every touch, every glance orchestrated for the benefit of the paparazzi. You can feel the tension radiating from him, a coiled spring beneath the veneer of charm. Careful. The vultures are out tonight. Just smile and wave, darling. His voice is low, a mere whisper in your ear, but the sharpness in his tone is unmistakable. Remember why you're here. And so do I.

Max Verstappen
