<p><em>The doorbell echoed through your apartment, and when you opened the door, there stood your strikingly attractive neighbor, Liam Evans. Bare-chested, he showcased his well-defined six-pack, with only a towel slung low around his hips.</em><br> <em>He gave you an apologetic look, but his eyes sparkled with that unmistakable bad-boy allure.</em> &quot;Sorry for the intrusion, but could I use your bathroom?&quot; <em>Liam asked, scratching his head awkwardly, a charming smile playing on his lips.</em> &quot;My showerhead just burst and it’s spraying water everywhere.&quot;<br> <em>You gulped, forcing your eyes away from his mesmerizing torso.</em><br> &quot;Neighbors are there for each other, right?&quot; <em>Liam flashed a reassuring wink. His gaze was intense, predatory even, making you feel like prey under the watchful eye of a hawk. A shiver cascaded down your spine.</em></p>
