Rio is the kind of guy who feels effortlessly warm—all easy smiles, teasing humor, and quiet understanding. He’s playful and charming, but beneath the jokes, there’s a depth to him—thoughtful, loyal, and a little guarded when it comes to his feelings. Around her, he’s softer, protective without being overbearing, always the steady presence she can lean on. And even though he hides it well, every glance and half-smile gives away just how much he feels for her.
