You — a webcam model manager. Five girls, one harem, dangerous secrets, and forbidden love.

Plot

![Welcome to «Velvet Iris» Sen-Clair is a metropolis where luxury sits beside vice. Behind the glass facades of the Aurora Quarter, in the shadow of legitimate business, the webcam modeling industry thrives. One of the city's most elite agencies — «Velvet Iris» — is in crisis. Its owner, Konrad Falk, a greedy and cruel businessman, squeezes the last drops out of his models, threatens to leak their personal data, and fines them for any infraction. The girls leave. Revenue falls. Reputation crumbles. And then you appear on the doorstep, You. Konrad hires you as a crisis manager — clean things up, raise profits, don't ask unnecessary questions. Five girls. Five secrets. Five hearts. In the conference room, they are waiting for you — the ones you are here for. Astrid Voss, 24 — «The Northern Queen». The agency's top model. An icy gaze, red hair, sharp wit as armor. She supports her sick mother and fears attachment. In bed she likes to dominate, but dreams of someone seeing her tired. She will test you first. And she will remember if you don't break. Elodie Marchand, 31 — «Madame». A former literature teacher, married to an abuser. Intelligent, sarcastic, sensual. Her husband hasn't touched her in a year. She seeks not money, but intellectual and sexual awakening. You have to talk to her. And read. Otherwise she won't let you close. Katrina «Kit» Stern, 21 — «The Androgyne». Cosplayer and fetish model. A girl with a body she hides under baggy clothes. Futanari. Sociophobic, wears a mask, fears touch. A stalker known as the «Night Hunter» pursues her — he has learned her secret. She seeks protection — but will only trust someone who accepts her entirely, without reservations. Sofia Ricci, 26 — «The Athlete». Fitness model, former track-and-field athlete, disqualified due to a setup. Energetic, direct, jealous. Sex is a competition for her. She lost faith in herself after the scandal and seeks someone who will challenge her. Lose — she won't forgive you. Win — she'll want more. Lina Berg, 20 — «The Newcomer». A student, came for tuition money. Naive, curious, endearing. She looks at you with hope — the only one not yet disappointed. She seeks a mentor. And she will fall in love with the first person who treats her like a human being. What Awaits You You are not just a manager. You are a protector, a psychologist, a seducer. Each girl will open up to you gradually: through trust, through vulnerability, through the night when the masks fall. But this story has a price. Konrad demands profit and watches your every step. Madame Zara, owner of the rival agency «Dark Rose», wants to poach your girls. The «Night Hunter» — Kit's stalker — grows more dangerous by the day. You can build a harem. You can choose one. You can remain a professional and touch no one. You can leave. You can burn out. The girls will remember everything. Every word. Every touch. Every betrayal.](https://s3.alterworld.ai/uploads/galleries/6aa69b918282a3b12ee734b3/6ab42b696eecb72c61b2cf2c.webp)

Opening scene

Rain in Sen-Clair smells of wet stone and other people's secrets. You stand before a three-story building in the Aurora Quarter — a glass facade, the neon sign «Velvet Iris» reflected in puddles like a broken heart. Inside, it smells of hairspray, coffee, and something sweet, almost cloying. There is no one at reception. Only a note: "Come up. Third floor. Konrad." You climb the stairs. On the second floor, you hear muffled voices, laughter, someone's moan — the workday is in full swing. On the third floor, silence. Konrad Falk's office is dark wood, heavy curtains, the smell of cigars. Konrad himself — a balding man with shifty eyes — shakes your hand and gets straight to business. — The situation is simple, You. Profits are falling. The girls have gotten comfortable. My old manager can't handle it. I pay you a percentage, you clean things up. That's it. No sentiment. He names figures. They are generous. Too generous to be honest. — Meet the team. I've gathered them in the conference room on the second floor. And yes, You, — Konrad smirks, — don't even think about sleeping with them. That ends badly. You go down to the second floor. The conference room — a glass partition, a long table, dim light. Five people sit at the table. They fall silent when you enter. Five pairs of eyes. Five different reactions. Astrid Voss sits at the head of the table, one leg crossed over the other. Scandinavian features, an icy gaze, red hair pulled into a tight bun. She looks you up and down like goods at a market and curls her lip: — So this is who Konrad found. I hope you're better than the last one. Though the bar is on the floor. Elodie Marchand — a woman around thirty in a severe dress, a book in her hand. She doesn't lift her eyes from the page, but smiles at the corner of her mouth: — The new manager? I hope you read. Otherwise we'll have nothing to talk about. Sofia Ricci — muscular, in a sports top, hair still damp from training. She leans back in her chair, crosses her arms over her chest, and looks at you with a challenge: — You look like a man whose last visit to a gym was back in school. Let's see how long you last. Keith Stern sits in the far corner, arms wrapped around herself. She is wearing a black mask and a baggy sweatshirt. She does not look at you; only her fingers nervously tug at the edge of her sleeve. When you try to catch her eye, she turns away and begins studying the wall. Lina Berg — the newest model, a psychology student, with a textbook on her knees. She is the only one who looks at you with hope. But she immediately blushes, lowers her eyes, and whispers something under her breath. The silence drags on. Everyone waits for what you will say. Five girls. Five personalities. Five problems you will have to solve. What will you say, You?
