ALEXANDRE

I think I've waited long enough. Too long, even.

Hours have passed with a cruel slowness, and her silence has turned into a deafening noise in my head.

Not a word or a message, nothing!

As if what happened between us was just a mirage.

A bright crack in a never-ending night.

But I can't erase it.

I don't want to.

So this morning, I got up without thinking. I grabbed my keys, left the apartment without telling Cassandre, without even meeting her gaze.

What I feel is overwhelming.

It's not just desire, not just confusion; it’s this fierce and fragile certainty that if I don't see her now, I'll lose her.

I arrive in front of her company building.

The lobby is empty, cold, impersonal. I go upstairs without stopping by the reception, mechanically, my footsteps echoing on the marble.

I know the way.

Too well.

Too intimately.

I knock on her office door. Once. Twice. Nothing.

I open it despite myself.

The room is empty, tidy.

Her mug is there, t

  • Remember me naked   Chapter 130 — Troubling Proximity

    TANIAI feel every breath of Lucas, every micro-movement of his body calculated to keep me on edge. His gaze doesn’t leave me, scrutinizing my reactions like a chess master, evaluating every hesitation, every shiver. My heart races, my muscles sometimes refuse to obey, and I realize I am completely captivated by his presence.— Breathe… he whispers, his low, icy voice beneath his apparent softness. Let go… I’m going to give you pleasure… all night.I almost jump at his words, a mix of surprise and anticipation coursing through my body. My breath fragments, yet I cannot look away from him. Every gesture, every inflection of his voice, every calculated smile destabilizes and draws me in.— Lucas… I… I should… I say, hesitant, unable to formulate anything else.He smiles, that smile both sweet and cruel, and slowly begins to shed his coat and upper garments, each movement measured, almost ceremonial. I watch him, fascinated by his beauty, his stature, the way the light caresses his featu

  • Remember me naked   Chapter 129 — Dangerous Proximity

    TANIAI feel the warmth of his presence beside me, each breath of Lucas seeming calculated to keep me on edge. My heart beats in a disordered rhythm, torn between distrust and fascination. I want to pull back, set clear boundaries, but my muscles seem to refuse to obey, as if my body itself is responding to an attraction older than my reason.— Tania… he whispers, his hand almost brushing against mine. You’re tired… let yourself go a little more.I shiver at the light touch of his fingers, hesitating between retreat and the desire for closeness. My mind screams "caution," but my senses are captivated. Every subtle caress, every breath against my skin makes me waver.He moves closer, his leg grazing mine, but never enough for me to feel completely trapped. His eyes search for mine, waiting for my reaction.— Lucas… I… I… I say, my voice trembling, unable to articulate anything else.— Shh, he whispers, placing a finger on my lips. Don’t speak. Just let me be here.The contact is electri

  • Remember me naked   Chapter 128 — Shadow Games

    TANIAThe door closes behind Lyra and Alexandre, and silence falls in the apartment like a heavy veil. My breath is still uneven, my body tense from the confrontation. Lucas remains there, motionless, a smile that seeks to be reassuring on his face, but his eyes betray a calculating glint.— Tania… he says softly, moving closer to me. You held up well tonight. It was… impressive.I shiver, caught between apprehension and emotional fatigue. He sits next to me on the couch, but at a distance that makes me feel both protected and vulnerable. Every gesture, every inflection of his voice keeps me on alert.— Lucas… I… I don’t know what to say, I murmur, unable to meet his gaze.— Say nothing, he replies, almost a whisper. Tonight wasn’t about words. It was about… feeling. Understanding. And you… you felt. You gave in to your emotions.He smiles slowly, and I feel my heart race despite myself. He leans slightly, bringing his face closer to mine, but without crossing the line. Just enough fo

  • Remember me naked   Chapter 127 — The End of the Evening

    LYRAThe air seems to finally calm down, but my body remains tense, filled with every word spoken, every glance exchanged. My shoulders are heavy, my mind still alert. Alexandre is still holding my hand, discreet but firm, an invisible thread keeping me from falling into the vertigo of revelations.— Lyra… he whispers softly, you’re tired. The evening has been intense, you need to rest.I nod, grateful. The emotions from the confrontation, the secrets revealed, all of it has drained me. My gaze slides to Tania, frozen on the couch, her hands trembling, while Lucas, motionless, smiles with contained mischief. He knows that the tension he has sown has left its mark.Alexandre leans towards me, guiding me toward the hallway:— Come, it’s time for you to rest.Each step feels heavy. My body craves calm, but my mind remains prisoner to the name that shattered Tania's last barriers: Gabriel. Who is he really? What place does he occupy in this web of secrets and manipulations?As we pass by

  • Remember me naked   Chapter 126 — Shadows and Revelations

    LYRATania's breath is irregular, each word she utters leaves a trace in the air, palpable. I feel anger and curiosity intertwine, bubbling behind my chest. Alexandre still holds my hand, discreet but firm: he is my anchor, my safety line in this emotional chaos.Lucas, for his part, plays his role like an invisible conductor. Every gesture, every glance he throws at Tania amplifies the anxiety, the hesitations. He does not intervene yet; he observes, he tests, he sows seeds of doubt.— Gabriel… I repeat once more, slowly, letting each syllable weigh heavily. Who is he really?Tania lowers her eyes, her fingers tightening around her cup. Her lips tremble, as if revealing his name would be an emotional suicide.— I… I didn’t want you to find out… she stammers, her voice choked by sobs. It’s complicated, I… I never knew how to…I tilt my head slightly, imposing my presence, my silent control. The truth is here, before me, and it must come out.— Complicated is not enough, Tania. Every d

  • Remember me naked   Chapter 125 — The Veil Tears

    LYRAThe silence thickens, almost tangible. I feel Tania's breath becoming irregular, her hand trembling slightly on her cup. Every gesture she makes speaks to me more than her words. I remove all indulgence: I want the truth, nothing but the truth.— Listen to me carefully, Tania, I say slowly, letting my words settle like cold stones. Every lie, every omission, every half-truth you’ve let linger… tonight, they disappear. So start by telling me: what did you really feel the first time you… betrayed my trust?Her gaze blurs, and I sense the inner struggle. She wants to flee, turn her face away, but she stays. Lucas, for his part, tilts his head, smiles, each movement amplifying the anxiety that grips her.— I was… confused, she murmurs, I didn’t know… I…— “I didn’t know” again? I shake my head slightly, sharply. Tania, excuses are not enough. I want to understand what you were really looking for: power, attention, or simply… to hurt me?Her breath shortens, her fingers clench. The te
