16. Night of Passion

The cold fingers touched lightly, then gradually clung to the miserable man.

He smelled the snow, and felt the cold in the winter with nothing on.

Cold... really cold, he might have contorted himself, if not for the mystery arms that were blocking his weak movements, the last invisible protests.

The women's chest pressed against his back, as if to cling to, catching prey in the thin human net that had just been pulled up from the glacier.

"Ray, oh poor brother! You already know why you have to endure so much humiliation, so why hesitate to return to me? We can't be separated... When fate has linked two people suffering, they come together to guide this world. I can't hold back the feeling of wanting you, because we were born to accomplish only one goal. The excitement will slowly eat away at my mind!... This time, I'll come find you. This time, I'll have you!"

I held her arms, leaning my head back and whispering. I'm ready already.

The scoundrel will now change, he no longer wants to run away, he now holds his head high, facing the truth.

He is awakening, both mentally and in real life.

He's waking up...

The towel was stained with sweat and blood, squeezed dry by someone's hand, white as snow.

They put lightly on my forehead the cold of the water, and the gentle tenderness.

They seem to know, no, S knows the answer I've been waiting for.

That girl hugged my face, slowly put herself on the small hospital bed, at most just enough for two people.

Our bodies are in contact, clinging to each other like roots deep in the ground.

"S… I'm sorry, really. I was so helpless, so incompetent. All I could do was stand and watch my teammates fall, unable to reach out and change anything. I let Lair and everyone down. Yet in the end I still doubted you. Enough is enough, enough of this stupidity…"

"Stop talking, I get it… I'm just like you. But on the other hand, instead of adamantly denying it, it seemed that I couldn't leave you behind. So maybe, I'm already in love with you. Let me love you."

A charming, attractive girl who somehow fell in love with me.

It's pitiful, she's so foolishly devoted to this loser, but I can't blame her either.

A horse-drawn carriage goes straight into danger, and all possibilities are in sight.

No one knows how much time has passed, we are entwined like longtime lovers reunited, constantly mixed with emotions and pleasures, wild animals forgetting their "human" part.

"Do you… want to do that?"

S said provocatively, a little flirtatiously but also very discreetly, looking fascinated like a drop of Rouge wine slowly falling down my throat.

I hugged her, her soft body and ecstatic scent gradually making the brain give control to instinct.

For someone like me, S is an irresistible trap, an irresistible woman.

She is so beautiful, meek, self-sufficient but also considerate.

A perfect person like the idea really exists, or is it just a patchwork of outer shell, I don't know...

The door opened slightly, and I heard Lair's whisper.

"Raymond, can I come in?"

She leaned in, looked up and saw the two of us having a "lovely night".

Blushing her cheeks, Lair quickly covered her face, raising her voice.

"I… I'm sorry for… not waiting for a reply! I will come outside right away!"

Panicked, she slams the door shut.

"She's still not ready for this, is she?"

S places a passionate kiss on my lips, marking the end of the pleasures.
