He stepped closer, his hand brushing against mine, sending a shiver down my spine.
"I want you to be free. I want you to stop holding back."
I shook my head, stepping back.
"You don't even know me."
"I know more about you than you think," he said softly, his eyes locking onto mine. "I know that you feel trapped in your life, that you crave something more but are too afraid to reach for it."
"How do you know that?" I whispered, my voice trembling.
He smiled, his hand moving to my waist, pulling me closer.
"Because I see the same thing in you that I once saw in myself."
I felt my breath hitch as he leaned in, his lips brushing against my ear.
"I can give you what you need, Mariana. All you have to do is let me."
